Although the 100,000 Dongyi soldiers were nominally dismissed by Lin Nan five years ago, they were actually under the jurisdiction of Tai Shici. In addition, there are 50,000 Han soldiers, and together with the Northwest Army, there are a total of 250,000. In the early years, the Northwest Army fully obeyed Lin Nan's will and was in the northwest tuntian. With so many troops, the amount of food and salaries to be consumed in a year is a large expense. Except for the 100,000 Dongyi soldiers who don't have to pay, the remaining 150,000 troops are all raised by the Huaxia State. To raise soldiers, you need to have enough food and money. Therefore, Lin Nan formulated the first five-year plan to develop the Hetao area.

In the past five years, the Northwest Army has not experienced a battle, but as a soldier of the Northwest Army, it is not so easy, reclaiming wasteland, building defensive barriers, digging canals, these are all things they have to do. On the one hand, it is necessary to defend the people, and on the other hand, it is necessary to protect the people who have migrated over, and in the continuous integration, those Dongyi soldiers, Xiongnu soldiers, and Qiang soldiers have gradually merged into the main force of the Northwest Army, and the soldiers of Han nationality have become brothers of the opposite sex...... These soldiers from different nationalities have ignored the grievances between ethnic groups and have completely become a member of the Huaxia family. Therefore, five years later, after Lin Nan personally inspected the Northwest Army, he decided to officially give the name, change the name of the previous Zhenrong Army, and establish a new, the first unique group army in Huaxia, called the Northwest Field Army.

In the government of Lingzhou City, these generals who had suspicions in the past have now become brothers, and everyone has no distinction between grades, they are all commensurate with brothers, sitting together around the stove, eating meat and drinking wine.

After you have eaten and drunk. Tai Shici first said: "Summoning the four brothers today, if nothing else, the emperor's holy decree was sent to us twenty days ago, before Jing Han was destroyed, and I also let all the brothers read it at that time." The purpose is to attack Liangzhou. Now in the cold winter, the road to Shu is difficult to walk, half of Cao Wei's soldiers and horses are in Shu, even if they retreat to Qinzhou, it will take half a month, and this small half a month is the time for our Northwest Field Army to show its strength. It's been five years, and the brothers are no longer looking forward to fighting the Wei army. A month and a half ago, our army was ordered to feint an attack on Liangzhou. It's just a small test, and now that the big war is coming, you should work together. ”

Ma Chao had always been ashamed of being under Tai Shici, but after Lin Nan's agreement, he gradually gave up this plan, after all, he was under the fence and had nothing to do.

However, after five years of getting along. Although Ma Chao has always been thinking about revenge, his relationship with Tai Shici, Pang De, Wei Yan, Chu Yan and others has become relatively close. And the Ma family was also arranged very properly by Lin Nan. His cousin Ma Dai was appointed as the captain of Dongyi, and was named a first-class baron, and even his younger brother was also named a viscount, and people's hearts were long, so he naturally knew that Lin Nan was good to him, so he was willing to work for him.

"I'm going to capture Wuwei!" Ma Chao was the first to say.

"Then I'll go and get stability." Wei Yan also took the lead.

"I'm going with General Ma. After General Ma captured Wuwei, I went to capture the three counties of Zhangye, Jiuquan and Dunhuang. Pound said in a big tone.

"I went with General Wei to capture Hanyang, and then jointly attack Jincheng and Longxi." Chu Yan said.

"No!" After hearing this, Tai Shici denied, "No division of troops." 200,000 troops all rushed straight to Wuwei, Lingzhou City does not have to be defended, I have mobilized 50,000 Dongyi soldiers to garrison, Dongyi archers are very powerful, hiding in the fortress, you can defend Lingzhou. ”

"200,000 troops attacking Wuwei? Don't you think it's too wasteful? ”。 Ma Chao was opposed.

"Waste? Hey, not necessarily. Wuwei is an important place connecting the east and west of Liangzhou, and after taking Wuwei, it is equivalent to dividing Liangzhou into two, and then the army went south to sweep the counties of Liangzhou. With the majestic posture of our Northwest Field Army, whoever dares to resist can only look at the wind and surrender. Even if you encounter the Qiang, you can defeat them with superior forces. Tai Shi Ci said.

Wei Yan said: "Join forces and march, what about the back?" If Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang and other places come to attack us, and there are also Xianbei people, then won't we suffer from the enemy? ”

"No, I have already asked people to contact the Xianbei people, and the king of Wusun Kingdom has also agreed to contact the countries of the Western Regions on his behalf, and at the same time oppose Wei, which is enough to contain the Wei army in the three counties." Tai Shi Ci said.

Everyone felt a trace of doubt, this Tai Shi Ci was obviously much smarter than before, but when they thought that Tai Shi Ci's wife was Tian Xin, they understood some truth.

"Well, the army will attack Wuwei together, if the troops are divided, it is indeed not easy to resist the Qiang soldiers, and I have no objection to merging and advancing." Ma Chao said first.

"I have no objection." Pound followed.

Chu Yan and Wei Yan said in unison: "Let's join together, the joint army is lively." ”

Tai Shi Ci said: "Okay, brothers go back and prepare, the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month will attack Weiwu, and we will celebrate the New Year in Wuwei City." ”

"No!"

…………

At the same time, Lin Nan had also arrived in Changsha, and under the watchful eye, he invited the emperor of Wu to come out to see the snow scene. There is no snow here in Jingzhou, but the weather is still cold, and it will not be long before the New Year will be.

On the white snow, Lin Nan and Sun Ce walked towards each other, the two had never seen each other since they were separated in Wu State, and now the two met again, Sun Ce was already a twenty-one-year-old youth, and Lin Nan had also entered middle age.

Sun Ce looked at Lin Nan and saw that Lin Nan was still strong and full of spirit, the difference was that the charm of his body that had been full of vicissitudes made people feel that this person must have experienced a lot.

Both men were dressed in civilian clothes, and when they saw each other, they both smiled at each other.

"After years of not seeing, my uncle is still so healthy, how can this make the little nephew embarrassed." Sun Ce had a mustache on his lips, but when he saw Lin Nan's face, he was a little puzzled. But out of politeness, he still arched his hand and said with a fist towards Lin Nan.

"Huh...... The prestige of the little overlord is also well known in Jiangdong, and when I see it today, it is indeed very much the style of the overlord of Western Chu back then......"

"Uncle is here today. It's not to praise the little nephew, right? ”

"Naturally not, why am I here, you know everything in your heart, polite words, we don't need to say it, let's just say it straight to the point. This time, I came here for the problem of Jingzhou. ”

"I'm still saying that, presumably Sima Yi, the general of Zhengnan, also told his uncle, right?"

"Hehe, half Jingzhou? Don't you think you're asking too much? ”。 Lin Nan sneered.

"I, the soldiers of the Wu Kingdom, have spilled blood on the battlefield, how many soldiers and horses have I restrained for the Huaxia Kingdom? Half of Jingzhou was bought by the blood of my Wu soldiers. ”

"Oh, but look at it, Jingzhou. In addition to half of Jiangxia and the whole of Changsha, what other land is planted with the banner of your Wu Kingdom? You want half Jingzhou, isn't it excessive? ”

"You can't say that, these four counties of Jingnan were the first to be occupied by my Wu Kingdom, if it weren't for Zhuge Liang's deception, how could I lose it?"

"Quarrels can't lead to anything, so let's sit down and talk calmly!"

"Good. Let's talk about it. ”

Lin Nan said: "That's it, the sacrifice of the Wu State." I'll give you a satisfactory answer, but don't ask for too much, you say a reserve price, let me know what you want? ”

Sun Ce said: "It's very simple, I won't go too far." I will give you Jiangxia County to Huaxia Kingdom, and you will give me all the other three counties of Jingnan to Wu Kingdom. ”

After Lin Nan heard this, he laughed and said: "Little nephew, I didn't expect you to really be good at business, you take Jiangxia as a half-county land." I just want to exchange for my Jingnan Three Counties, do you think I will do such a deal? ”。

"Then there is no need to talk about it, the three counties of Jingnan were taken by Zhuge Liang from my Wu State, and my Wu State naturally has the right to take back these three counties, but if Zhuge Liang surrenders to your Huaxia Kingdom, please take him away, so as not to have a dispute between our two countries and hurt the peace, how bad is that." Uncle, what do you say? Sun Cepi said with a smile.

Lin Nan's face was resolute, his expression was cold, and his eyes were full of anger, but he didn't speak.

Sun Ce saw Lin Nan's expression, and he was not afraid, he relied on his own strength, and now he was one-on-one with Lin Nan, even if something happened, he didn't have to be afraid. He smiled and said, "Uncle, it seems that we still owe an agreement......

"What agreement?" Lin Nanhu asked suspiciously.

"When we were crusading against Dong Zhuo, didn't we make a six-year covenant? Now that six years have passed, my nephew is not talented, so I dare to ask my uncle for advice. Sun Ce hugged his fists.

"Postpone and then perform. That's all for today, and we'll meet here this time tomorrow, and I'll give you a satisfactory answer when the time comes. After speaking, Lin Nan turned around and left, without looking back.

Sun Ce smiled at each other, hugged his fists and said, "Uncle, be careful of slippery roads, go all the way!" ”

After Lin Nan returned to the barracks, he was in a terrible mood, and this Sun Ce kid was really tricky.

When Gan Ning saw that Lin Nan was back, he asked, "Your Majesty, how are things going?" ”

"Sun Ce wants to exchange Jiangxia County with me for the three counties of Wuling, Lingling, and Guiyang."

"Wishful thinking! Your Majesty, let all my sailors come over, enter Dongting Lake, outflank the whole line, and block Sun Ce and others in Changsha, and the emperor will personally lead the army to besiege the city and fight a battle with him, so that he will know that our Huaxia Kingdom is powerful, dare to shout in front of the emperor, and live impatiently! Gan Ning airway.

"The general is too presumptuous. Now is not the time to start a war with the State of Wu, the current form of the world is showing a three-point trend, if our army goes to war with the State of Wu, it will not be able to deal with the State of Wei, and it will fall into a situation of fighting on two fronts. If we continue to be friendly with Wu now and mobilize superior forces to defeat Wei, at least Wu will not make trouble behind our backs. Go down, all of you, and let me think about it, and see how we can solve it. ”

Gan Ning was a little angry, and asked: "Your Majesty, my navy is here, and you won't let me fight, so what's going on?" ”

Lin Nan patted Gan Ning's shoulder with a smile and said, "Don't worry, when the spring of next year begins, you will definitely be asked to fight a war, and you will be asked to conquer a country." ”

"A country? The world is divided into three, is it going to start attacking Wei next year? ”

"That's not it, the country you're going to is overseas, and it's only a sea away from Samhan......"

"What's that?" Gan Ninghu asked suspiciously.

"Wa Kingdom!"

"Wa Guo? Where is it? ”

"You'll know when the time comes, you go down first, let me think about it, tomorrow the dispute in Jingzhou must be resolved."

"No!"

……

When Sun Ce returned to Changsha City, Zhou Yu hurriedly asked, "Have you said everything?" ”

"It's all according to your strategy, I saw Lin Nan's face blue and red for a while. Gong Jin, do you think Lin Nan is really willing to exchange with us? ”

"It will definitely change, Jiangxia's geographical location was originally very good, and after our army occupied it, it could also play its role, but. Nanyang, Nanjun, and Runan of Huaxia surrounded Huaxia in an arc, and our army did not occupy the entire territory of Jiangxia, so it was better to exchange Jiangxia for the three counties of Jingnan. Once the three counties of Jingnan all belong to my Wu country, they can be connected with Jiaozhou, there is no worries, and to the west, you can also look up to Bashu. Lin Nan is a smart man, and when Wei still exists, he will not dare to tear his face with us. In this case, he will fall into a two-front war, which will be very detrimental to the Huaxia Kingdom. Your Majesty, although rest assured, Lin Nan will definitely change it tomorrow. ”

After hearing this, Sun Ce smiled and said: "Gong Jin's clever plan, a few days ago, he forced Zhuge Liang to walk in front of the two armies in women's clothes, and now he has forced Lin Nan to dare to be angry and dare not speak, I have you in Wu Guo." Why worry about the uncertain cause? ”

At this moment, a person walked in outside the door. Carrying a bloody burden in his hand, as soon as he entered the hall, he was full of spring breeze, threw the bloody burden directly to the ground, and at the same time knelt down and bowed: "General Jiang Qin of Zhennan, knock to see Your Majesty!" ”

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were laughing. Suddenly, I heard Jiang Qin coming, and a human head was also exposed in the bloody baggage, face down, and it was not clear whose head it was. However, Sun Ce saw Jiang Qin in person. With a smile on his face, he was shocked, so he hurried over and kicked the human head, which flipped over, revealing a face that he had hated for a long time.

A laugh broke out on his face, and he stepped on the man's head with his foot, and scolded excitedly, "Big-eared thief! You also have today! Hahahaha......"

Zhou Yu glanced over and saw that the human head was not someone else's, it was the Jing Han Emperor Liu Bei's, but the face was hideous and extremely ugly, probably because of the fear of death. He hurriedly picked up Jiang Qin and said, "General Jiang, thank you for your hard work." How did you find Liu Da'er? ”

So, Jiang Qin explained how to find Liu Bei and how to kill Liu Bei.

It turned out that Jiang Qin and Pan Zhang were ordered to search for Liu Bei's whereabouts, and they searched for three days, but they didn't know their whereabouts. Later, suddenly a man in black appeared and informed them of Liu Bei's whereabouts, and he and Pan Zhang rushed there without stopping, in a cave, just happened to meet Liu Bei who had fled. At this time, Liu Bei is no longer the Liu Bei of the past, hiding in a cave with no clothes, such a cold day, such thin clothes, even if they don't find Liu Bei, it is estimated that Liu Bei will be frozen to death in a short time.

After Jiang Qin and Pan Zhang saw Liu Bei, they immediately killed him and cut off his head, Pan Zhang stayed in Jiangxia, and Jiang Qin rushed to Changsha to ask for merit.

After listening to Jiang Qin's narration, Zhou Yu's eyes rolled and said, "Your Majesty, although I will go to see Lin Nan tomorrow with Liu Bei's head, I will say that I have captured Liu Bei for Huaxia Kingdom and beheaded Liu Bei." If I send someone to spread rumors again, I will say that Lin Nan instigated us to do this. ”

After hearing this, Sun Ce didn't understand and asked, "Why is this so?" The big-eared thief is my father's enemy, why do you want to sacrifice his head to Lin Nan? ”

Zhou Yu whispered a few words in Sun Ce's ear, and after Sun Ce heard it, he laughed and said, "Gong Jin's clever plan!" ”

Sun Ce immediately rewarded Jiang Qin with 100 gold, and then added 300 households to Jiang Qin and Pan Zhang, and asked Jiang Qin to stay in Changsha for the time being, and then go back after tomorrow's negotiations.

The next day, on the twenty-second day of the lunar month, there was light snow in the sky, but Sun Ce and Lin Nan still arrived as promised. The difference is that Sun Ce is carrying a burden in his hand, oozing some blood, while Lin Nan is also carrying a burden in his hand.

When Sun Ce saw that Lin Nan was also carrying a burden in his hand, he couldn't help but be stunned in his heart, and secretly thought, "Could it be that this is also a human head?" ”

After the two exchanged a few words of greeting each other from far to near, Sun Ce threw the bloody burden in his hand on the snow and said to Lin Nan: "Uncle, the little nephew has brought you a gift, and I hope my uncle will accept it." ”

Lin Nan let out an "oh", and saw Sun Ce squatting down and opening the baggage, revealing a human head inside, and that human head was none other than Liu Bei's. He only glanced at it lightly, and then smiled: "Nephew, I should congratulate you, you killed Liu Bei and avenged your father." Brother Wentai has a spirit in the sky, and he can also look at it. ”

Sun Ce saw that Lin Nan was peaceful, but he was not alarmed, so he asked suspiciously, "Isn't my uncle happy?" I got rid of a fierce rival for my uncle, so that he could make a comeback. ”

"Liu Bei's general trend has gone, and the world has shown a three-point trend. The agreement between me and your father is about to be completed, once I destroy the Wei State, then the Wu State and my Huaxia Kingdom can become one and govern together. ”

"Two into one? Co-governance? Sun Ce is different, he has never heard his father say it, but Ling Cao brought back his father's will, saying that in his lifetime, he must not be an enemy of Huaxia. Let Sun Ce remember.

"I'll talk about this later, nephew Xian, since you gave me Liu Bei's head, why don't you give me Liu Bei's body together?"

"If the uncle needs it, the little nephew will do it." Sun Ce didn't know what kind of medicine was being sold in Lin Nan's gourd, it seemed to be a little different from what Zhou Yu said, and he was neither surprised nor regretful. Everything was uneventful, and it seemed like it hadn't happened at all.

"Hmm. Virtuous nephew, I'm going to give you a gift today......" As he spoke, Lin Nan opened the baggage, pulled out a long picture scroll from it, and then spread it out on the spot, completely spreading out the picture scroll.

After Sun Ce saw the scroll. The spirit came to the table, because the picture scroll was a map.

"This is what I drew last night, and now I am giving it to you, this is called the world map, this place where we are. Here......" Lin Nan pointed on the map with his hand, "This was once the world of the Han Dynasty, from here to the west, all the way along the Silk Road, you will reach many different countries, some of these countries are strong, some are weak, and the customs, folk customs, and appearance are different from ours." When you arrive at this place called Europe, there is a very powerful empire called Rome. Most of the people there are yellow-haired, blue-eyed, high-nosed people, and they don't speak the same language as us......"

Sun Ce stared intently at this picture scroll and listened to Lin Nan's explanation. In the past, he thought that the world was only as big as the big man, but until today, he knew that what he thought of as the world was just the tip of the iceberg, and it turned out that outside the so-called world in his heart, there was a bigger world.

He is a man of great ambition and a hegemon. As soon as he saw this map, he was completely fascinated, and the world that Lin Nan gave was really ...... It's too big.

Lin Nan noticed Sun Ce's expression, and after talking about the west, his words turned sharply, and his hand hurriedly returned to the east, pointing to a small island in the southeast of the mainland, and said to Sun Ce: "Virtuous nephew, please look here......"

Sun Ce saw that there was a small island there and asked, "What is that place?" ”

"This is Yizhou, it is the land of my Huaxia country, I am ready to give Yizhou to you, this small island, but it is a treasure island, there are countless riches on it. The year before last, the navy of our Huaxia Kingdom crossed the sea to collect many islands hanging overseas, and this treasure island is one of them, this treasure island is as big as a state. Now, I leave this island to you to manage, what do you think? ”

Sun Ce was skeptical of Lin Nan's words, because he never knew that there was an island so close to Wu Kingdom, and what was even more amazing was that Huaxia Kingdom had already taken it into his pocket, and this island should be his Wu Kingdom's. If Huaxia established a military fortress on this island and returned the naval camp, it would undoubtedly be a huge threat to Wu. Because they can unceremoniously attack the coastline of the state of Wu from here.

"What you say is true? Why didn't I know there was another such place? ”

"Hehe, that's the difference between me and you, I have more things in my head than you can imagine. Because I am the reincarnation of Ziwei Emperor Star, overlooking the earth every day in the sky, where is there, I naturally know clearly, otherwise I would not have drawn such a map, what do you say? ”

Sun Ce believed it, because from the very beginning, Lin Nan was the reincarnation of the Ziwei Emperor Star had already been rumored, and later became the emperor, which further confirmed this rumor.

Lin Nan suddenly pointed to a small island below Jiaozhou, and said: "Look at it here, this place is similar to Yizhou, and it is also a treasure island, which I named Zhuya Prefecture, and I am ready to give it to you together." ”

"Would you be so kind?" Sun Ce sneered, but there was greed in his eyes, if these two islands were really occupied by the Huaxia Kingdom as Lin Nan said, then the threat to the Wu State was too great.

"Hehe, of course. I have a purpose. Didn't you propose yesterday to exchange Jiangxia for the three counties of Jingnan with me? I used these two islands to exchange for Jiangxia with you, what do you think? ”

Sun Ce frowned, and secretly thought: "Compared to the three counties of Jingnan, these two small islands are more threatening to the Wu State, if Lin Nan and I tear our faces, send people to attack the land from these two small islands." The army in my rear is empty, and won't it be very tolerant of them to occupy it? ”。

As soon as he thought of this, Sun Ce said: "In addition to these two islands, I will also add Lingling County and Guiyang County. ”

Lin Nan didn't think about it, so he replied: "A gentleman is difficult to chase after a horse, not to mention that you are an emperor, and you are even more worthy of your word, this matter is decided like this." Let's sign the contract now, from now on, Jiangxia will belong to my Huaxia Kingdom, Guiyang and Lingling will belong to your Wu Kingdom, Yizhou and Zhuya Prefecture will also belong to your Wu Kingdom, virtuous nephew, you have made a lot of money. ”

As he spoke, Lin Nan took out the paperwork that had been written. said to Sun Ce: "Virtuous nephew, this is a contract. You see, if you don't have any opinions, just press the mudra! ”

Sun Ce saw that Lin Nan had already prepared, and he didn't know why, and he had a feeling of being deceived. However, the emperor has always been true to his word. Even if you are not angry in your heart, you can only swallow your anger and swallow it in your stomach. He took the contract and looked through it carefully, but found nothing out of the ordinary. He bit his finger and pressed his handprint on the contract. Then, he handed the contract to Lin Nan.

Lin Nan smiled, and when he stretched out his finger and was about to bite it, he suddenly found that Liu Bei's head was still on the ground, and it was still bloody, and there was blood ready-made, so why bother biting it, he immediately squatted down, dipped it in some blood, and pressed his handprint on the contract.

When Sun Ce saw this scene, he suddenly felt that Lin Nan was too shrewd and didn't even want to come out with blood. He pointed to the places on the map near the Korean Peninsula, saw a large narrow stretch of islands, and asked, "What are those places?" ”

"Oh, Wakoku. Hehe, virtuous nephew, I can't give it to you here, it's already the place of my Huaxia country, this map is indicated, many places are beyond your imagination, you can try to cross the Pacific Ocean, and then reach the other side, where there is a magical continent, far bigger than the Han Dynasty, and gold is everywhere. ”

"That's so good, why don't you go?"

"I still have to deal with Cao Cao, I don't have time to go, wait until I destroy Cao Cao! If you don't go then, I'll be going, the land of gold......" Lin Nan deliberately said the last few words very carefully and slowly, and he laughed when he saw a trace of greed flashing in Sun Ce's eyes.

The negotiation has been decided, Lin Nan and Sun Ce have made a reasonable negotiation, of course, it is not fair, because Lin Nan deceived Sun Ce, and Yizhou and Zhuyazhou have not sent the navy of Huaxia to go at all. However, when Sun Ce found out that he had been deceived, it would be a matter for the future, so he could only sulk by himself.

The exchange of Guiyang and Lingling, two counties that are not rich, for the treasure land of Jiangxia, seems fair, but in fact it is not fair.

According to Zhou Yu's thinking, Jiangxia, a treasure land, can be exchanged for the four counties of Jingnan, but Sun Ce was fooled by Lin Nan like this, but he also left a county in Jingnan, Wuling County.

After the Jingzhou issue was determined, Lin Nan left Gan Ning to be fully responsible for the exchange of matters, and asked Zhuge Liang and Shamoke to evacuate all the people of Guiyang and Lingling, and postponed the land exchange to March next year on the grounds that it was difficult to travel in winter and the New Year was approaching. At the same time, Lin Nan quickly returned to Luoyang, because of the war in the northwest, he had to pay close attention.

After Sun Ce returned to Changsha City, Zhou Yu knew that after he found out, he was angry and depressed, but the matter had come to this point, and there was nothing to be done.

On the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, Lin Nan returned to Xiangyang, and Sun Ce also sent Liu Bei's body to Xiangyang, Lin Nan connected Liu Bei's head and body together, and then gave Liu Bei a thick burial with the gift of national funeral, buried outside Xiangyang City, and announced to the world that Liu Bei was mourned.

On the day of the state funeral, Lin Nan personally took the minister of civil and military affairs, as well as the original Jing Han's troops and generals, to Liu Bei's mausoleum. Xun You came to Lin Nan's side and said: "The emperor's plan is really wonderful, Wu Guo thought that sending Liu Bei's body and head would make the world think that the emperor ordered Liu Bei to be killed." Although Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Liu Bei fell out, they were also brothers, and if they knew that the emperor killed Liu Bei, they would naturally not come to work. But now that the emperor is mourning for Liu Bei, this move is enough for the emperor to buy all the Jing Han's subordinates and the hearts of the people, and the five bodies that the subjects admire are thrown to the ground. ”

Lin Nan smiled, but at the same time, there was also a sadness in his heart. At the end of the Han Dynasty, there were many battles, and now they are going one after another, and so many people have died. So many heroes were killed by him, and his hands were covered in blood. What made him hesitate the most was that the whereabouts of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are still unknown, and he doesn't know if he will appear in Xiangyang after hearing the news of Liu Bei's death.

"Gongda. I will go back to Luoyang today, and I will entrust you with carte blanche to do the affairs of Jingzhou, and I will make you the Duke of Annan, and you will be in charge of all things, and you don't need to report it. At the same time, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, Zhang He, Chen Dao, Wen Ping, Gan Ning, Zhuge Liang and others are all under your command. The problem of Jingzhou must be solved, and after the beginning of spring next year, it will be handed over to Wu State, and the people of those two counties will all migrate to Wuling. ”

"Obey the order!"

……

Twenty-eighth of the lunar month, Liangzhou, Wuwei County, Wuwei City.

It snowed heavily for more than ten days. One after another, the entire northwest seemed to be covered with heavy snow. The heavy snow outside the city was half a person's deep, and it was the largest snow in Liangzhou in years.

In such weather, the soldiers of the Wei army had already rushed into the gatehouse to keep warm, and there were very few who came out to stand guard, at most they came out to take a look at it every once in a while. Again. In such weather, unless you are a fool, you are willing to come out.

"Freeze me!" On the tower of Wuwei City, a soldier hurriedly pushed open the door of the corner tower on the city tower, and shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door.

The soldier was followed by a strong cold wind, and the cold wind entered. A bonfire in the corner tower was blowing.

"Dog's day! Close the door, close the door! The fire is going to be extinguished! One of the commanders cried impatiently, picked up the sticks on the ground, and threw them at the soldier.

The soldier hurriedly closed the door, came to the bonfire, squatted there to roast the fire, which made his body feel a little warm, and said to the shouting tun chief just now: "There is no one outside, I don't understand, this kind of weather, what else is there to see, let us be cold here, the dog's day is too conservative is really not a thing!" ”

After the soldier scolded, the rest of the soldiers also began to curse, squirting the blood of the dog who was too scolded.

Immediately afterwards, everyone talked and joked together, and a hundred people were huddled together, some talking and laughing.

Suddenly, the door was kicked open, and from outside the door came a man covered in snowflakes, who was pale and holding a steel knife in his hand, glanced at the people inside, and did not answer, but with a wave of his hand, he rushed inside.

The people inside were shivering with the cold wind, and the bonfire was blown around, so that the eyes of the people inside couldn't be opened, and the tun chief couldn't help but scold: "Dog, close the door!" ”

As soon as the words of the tun chief fell, he saw a group of people rushing in from outside, all of them were similar to snowmen, and they were red from the cold with a shining knife in their hands, and they walked quickly to the side of this group of Wei soldiers, and raised their knives to slash.

In just an instant, more than 100 Wei soldiers were hacked to death, and the person who took the lead in took off his fur coat, revealing the military uniform of the Northwest Field Army of Huaxia Kingdom, which was Wei Yan, and he shouted outside the door: "Open the city gate and enlarge the army into the city!" ”

In Wuwei City, the soldiers of the Wei army were still gathered in front of the fire in the room, and everyone usually blew blindly from all over the world when they had nothing to do, and no one would have expected that someone would travel in such bad weather.

In the Taishou Mansion, Wuwei Taishou Cao Xiu was immersed in the joy of the upcoming New Year, and ordered the soldiers to decorate the entire Taishou Mansion in a prosperous manner, and there was no snow in the courtyard, which was the cleanest place in the entire Wuwei City.

"Hang that lantern, yes, the one on the left, and the one over there...... Oops...... Who told you to hang the plaque, you see where you hung it...... Who is that, you go to the backyard......" Cao Xiu walked in every corner of the Taishou Mansion, personally inspecting, hoping to make this year perfect.

The news of the demise of Shu Han reached Liangzhou, Cao Xiu was naturally happy, this year, is his happiest year, not long ago he just married a beautiful wife, plus the New Year is going to be the New Year, how to let his wife enjoy the fun of the New Year.

Cao Xiu pointed and pointed, and his subordinates were also in full swing, because there was a reward to get it, so they naturally worked a lot harder.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise outside the Taishou Mansion, and the ground where Cao Xiu was standing shook violently, and the first illusion he had was that the ground had sunk.

"What's going on out there?" Cao Xiu was shocked in his heart, this kind of juncture, if the ground sinks, he simply doesn't want him to live a good year.

Just when everyone in the courtyard was confused, suddenly a person broke in from outside, that person was covered in blood, his eyes were full of horror, as soon as he entered this courtyard, he shouted loudly: "Huaxia Army...... We are surrounded by the Huaxia Army......"

Before he finished shouting, Wei Yan rushed in with a team of hoplites, and cut off the person's head with a knife, and glanced at the people in the courtyard with a sharp gaze, and when he saw Cao Xiu, a trace of light appeared in his eyes, and he waved the cold steel knife in his hand with blood beads forward, and shouted loudly: "The general has an order, kill Cao Xiu, a hundred bounty coins, and a third-level ......."

Wei Yan shouted as he rushed forward, slashed down a servant in the Taishou Mansion with a knife in his hand, and headed straight towards Cao Xiu. The rest of the soldiers followed, and as soon as they rushed in, they immediately scattered in all directions, controlling the entire corner of the Taishou Mansion in a vain attempt to block all exits.

Cao Xiu was taken aback, and without waiting for Wei Yan to run, he immediately fled into the backyard. When he saw his wife coming out of the house, he immediately shouted, "Go in! ”

At this time, many soldiers of the Huaxia Army climbed over the wall, and some soldiers rushed in through the back door.

Cao Xiu took his wife into the room, took out his blade, put on his armor, closed the door, walked directly to the bed, lifted a wooden board under the bed, revealed a dark grid, and hurriedly said to his wife: "Walk along this secret passage all the way, you can lead to a dense forest outside the city, and in the secret passage there are some Tiger Guard soldiers I left behind, who can protect you from this place." After leaving, he went straight to Hanyang County and reported the matter to Lord Thorn, asking Lord Thorn Shi to prepare for defense. ”

Cao Xiu's wife wanted to say something, Cao Xiu hugged his wife, kissed her fiercely on the mouth, and said directly: "Don't worry, I'll be fine, I'm still useful to them, don't worry about me!" ”

Cao Xiu's wife didn't follow, so she had to pull Cao Xiu to go with her, and after Cao Xiu parted with her in life and death, he said angrily: "This matter is about the survival of Liangzhou, don't delay any longer, I will meet you again." ”

After speaking, he asked Cao Xiu's wife to forcibly leave, and he cleaned up the dark grid again, and as soon as he turned around, Wei Yan broke into the door with someone.

Seeing Wei Yan's eyes, Cao Xiu was in a hurry, hurriedly threw his weapon on the ground, knelt down on his knees, kowtowed to Wei Yan and said, "General Wei, please spare my life, I am willing to surrender to the Huaxia army." ”

Wei Yan was taken aback, but he couldn't believe it, and shouted to his subordinates: "Tie up, escort to the general!" ”

So, the soldiers tied Cao Xiu up to Wuhua and escorted him to the front hall of the Taishou Mansion.

At this time, the Huaxia army had completely controlled the form of Wuwei, and the moment the city gate was opened, the 30,000-strong army quickly rushed into the city. The Wei soldiers in the city were all in the barracks, the streets were empty, and the people would not come out, so the 30,000 soldiers were bloodless and directly surrounded the barracks, and the Wei soldiers were all frightened and forced to surrender. The Huaxia army successively occupied important places such as arsenals and granaries, and only then did they come to besiege Taishoufu. (To be continued......)
