Jia Xu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, half a month ago, when the emperor returned triumphantly, he accidentally saw a beautiful woman in the city, this is the beauty that the emperor saw that day......"

Lin Nan's heart moved, and he immediately looked at the person wearing the cloak, and said lightly, "Can you take off the cloak and see people with their true faces?" ”

The man in the cloak nodded, didn't say anything, just slowly faded the cloak, and what appeared in front of Lin Nan was a young and beautiful woman, about ten years old, with a goose egg face, willow eyebrows, cherry mouth, and a graceful figure that looked a little unbearable.

"The little woman Yuan Xing has seen the emperor" The woman reported to her home, and when she saw Lin Nan's eyes staring at her, she took a step or two forward, bowed down and said.

"Your Majesty, the minister was fortunate to be with the emperor that day, and saw that the emperor was a little interested in this woman, so he sent people to look around, and finally found this woman in a suburb outside the city, and after asking the woman's personal opinion, he brought this woman and dedicated it to the emperor," Jia Xu said slowly.

After Lin Nan heard this, he felt very relieved, Jia Xu is indeed good at figuring out his thoughts, but he always does things in the best position, neither publicity, nor domineering, very honest and reliable, and Jia Xu has always been in an important position on his life path, and he came all the way from Liangzhou back then. If Jia Xu was missing, his life path might not be so smooth.

"Lord Taiwei has done a very good job" Lin Nan praised, but his eyes were always on Yuan Xing's body, and after looking at it, he asked, "Miss Yuan, where are you from?" ”

"Go back to the emperor. Minnu is a native of Runan, who moved to Luoyang from Runan a few years ago and settled on the outskirts of the capital. ”

"Well......" Lin Nan saw that Yuan Xing's answer was like a stream, and he didn't feel the slightest fear of himself, and Yuan Xing's body still exuded a sense of nobility, I don't know why, Lin Nan always felt that this woman was not an ordinary folk girl.

Yuan Xing was a little flustered under Lin Nan's gaze, she was only ten steps away from Lin Nan, but her heart was stared at by Lin Nan's fierce eyes, and she didn't dare to look at Lin Nan again. took the initiative to take a step forward, and suddenly took out a sharp dagger from his sleeve with his left hand, and shot towards Lin Nan's front door.

Jia Xu was taken aback, he didn't expect Yuan Xing to openly assassinate Lin Nan, and in a hurry, he directly blocked Lin Nan with his body, and shouted loudly, "There are assassins." ”

Sen Han's dagger flew directly towards Lin Nan. But Jia Xu blocked in front of Lin Nan, and the dagger would be the first to hurt Jia Xu. Jia Xu's face was frightened, he felt remorseful in his heart, he was a little careful, but he didn't expect to lead the wolf into the room, he was afraid that he would die and he couldn't escape the blame He closed his eyes and blocked Lin Nan in front of him with the determination to die.

Suddenly. Lin Nan waved his long sword, only to hear the sound of "dang", and shot down the dagger, and at the same time put his left arm around Jia Xu, and turned around. The whole person stabbed out towards Yuan Xing, and the long sword pointed directly at Yuan Xing's neck.

Yuan Xing was taken aback, she didn't expect that in such a short distance, she hadn't stabbed Lin Nan yet, and seeing Lin Nan flying over, a dagger suddenly appeared in her right palm, trying to resist Lin Nan's long sword.

However, Lin Nan's long sword suddenly turned, and the sword move changed, directly knocking down the dagger in Yuan Xing's hand, and the long sword was placed on Yuan Xing's neck.

At this time, Lin Heng led someone from outside the room to break in, and when he saw that the situation in the room had stabilized, he immediately said, "Escort." ”

Lin Heng walked to Lin Nan's side, glanced at Yuan Xing, as well as the two daggers on the ground, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, are you okay?" ”

Lin Nansenhan's eyes were fixed on Yuan Xing's body and asked, "Why do you want to assassinate me?" ”

"You are my father's killer, I will not take revenge, I will not be a man" Yuan Xing saw that he had been captured, and he didn't hide anything, so he immediately called out, without any fear at all.

"Killing the father's enemy? Who is your father? Lin Nan put away the long sword and inserted it into his waist, and the two guards escorted Yuan Xing, he asked.

"Hmph, you did it yourself, you actually forgot it? I fall into your hands now, and I have nothing to say, if you want to kill or chop you as you please, it doesn't matter if you tell you, my father is Yuan Shao. ”

"Yuan Shao? Are you Yuan Shao's daughter? Lin Nan asked a little surprised

In the first battle of Yecheng that year, Yuan Shao's family was ruined, except for Yuan Shao's two concubines who were still alive, the rest were all buried in Yecheng, why did they run out of a daughter?

"Yes, my father is Yuan Shao, you killed my whole family, I want to avenge my whole family"

"I see, since you are Yuan Shao's daughter...... Lin Heng. Lin Nan didn't want to ask anything more, so he immediately shouted

"The minister is here."

"Let her go, drive her out of Luoyang, give her a horse, some travel expenses, and let her do it herself."

"Your Majesty, she's an assassin......" Lin Heng said in surprise.

"She's an unqualified assassin, let her go, I think she'll understand later, war is sometimes cruel." Lam Nam Road.

"You're really not going to kill me?" Yuan Xing was also surprised.

"If I want to kill you, I will kill you just now Since you are a descendant of Yuan Shao, I don't want to be killed, so many years have passed, and you will understand what war is in the future."

Lin Heng directly escorted Yuan Xing out, Lin Nan turned to look at Jia Xu, who was frightened and guilty, and immediately said, "Lord Taiwei doesn't have to take it to heart, this matter is over." ”

Jia Xu knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Lin Nan and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, the minister was negligent, led the wolf into the room, and almost harmed Your Majesty, please punish Your Majesty." ”

Lin Nandao said, "Lord Taiwei doesn't have to blame himself, I was almost confused by her just now, if it weren't for the chill in her eyes, I wouldn't have seen through Lord Taiwei who has been thinking about me, and risked death to escort me just now, this spirit is worth affirming, but Lord Taiwei was a little frightened, and he still needs to recuperate." ”

After speaking. Lin Nan turned around and walked out, and then left Jiafu with Jia Wen, Lin Peng, Lin Gan, and Lin Kun.

Jia Xu was stunned for a while, and wanted to dedicate it to Lin Nannu, but she didn't expect that the beauty was an assassin, and it was really impossible to steal chickens and rice.

Seeing Lin Nan leaving, Jia Xu personally sent Lin Nan outside the mansion. Then I watched them disappear into the night, and my heart was full of amazement.

The next morning, Jia Xu personally handed over a fold, after Lin Nan read it, his brows were furrowed, and when he was about to close the fold, he stared at Jia Xu tightly with his eyes like a torch, and asked, "Is this your true opinion?" ”。

Jia Xu knelt down and said, "The emperor is clear, and the minister is contrary to the grace of the saint." has made a big mistake, and there is no face left to continue to serve as the Privy Council, I only ask the emperor to grant permission, and Weichen is grateful. ”

Lin Nandao said, "Since this is the case, then you are allowed to play, but I am not allowed to cut the title and resign from the official, and your title will remain the same." With immediate effect, withdraw from the Privy Council. Demoted to the Ministry of Intelligence, Yu Lu as before. ”

Jia Xu was grateful, and had nothing to say, so he silently said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

Many ministers didn't know what was going on, and Jia Xu suddenly withdrew from the Privy Council, which shocked many ministers. They all looked at each other.

Lin Nan looked around and immediately said, "Since last year, our Huaxia army has destroyed the Han and Wei dynasties, and included part of Jingzhou, Yizhou, Liangzhou, and Qinzhou into the territory of our Huaxia Kingdom, but due to the tense war. Many meritorious people have not been rewarded, and today, I will reward them for their meritorious deeds. ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live," many ministers knelt down together to listen to the holy decree.

In the main hall of the palace, as soon as Lin Nan's voice fell, Chen Lin, the secretary general of the secretariat, held a holy decree in his hand and read it out in public: "Holy edict! ”

The whole hall was silent, and all the people knelt there, listening attentively.

Chen Lin immediately read out the holy decree, which was a holy decree on rewarding meritorious deeds, and all those who had meritorious service in the war were rewarded. In addition to these, the Holy Decree also made a new addition to the establishment of official positions, and the Huaxia country was full of talents, and the position of the Five Tiger Generals could no longer meet so many positions, so Lin Nan added the position of the general and changed it to the top ten generals.

In addition to the original five tiger generals and military positions unchanged, five additional generals were added, with Ma Chao as the general of Zhenyuan, Zhang He as the general of Weiyuan, Xu Huang as the general of An Yuan, Pang De as the general of Fuyuan, and Wei Yan as the general of Jingyuan. In addition, he was appointed Wen Ping and Liao Hua as the left and right hussar generals, Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu as the left and right chariot generals, and the rest such as Zhou Cang, Lin Yang, Anita-Partridge, Hao Zhao, Ling Hu Shao, Deng Xiang, Yang Huai, Wu Yi, Wu Ban and others all received due rewards, and Zong Yu was promoted to the squire of the Intelligence Department.

Those soldiers who died in the war also received due pensions, and a monument to heroes was set up in the square of Luoyang, and a martyr's shrine was specially built for future generations to pay respects.

At the local level, let Xun You be the governor of Jingzhou, let Guo Jia be the governor of Qinzhou, and transfer Gai Xun to be the governor of Liangzhou, the four lieutenants of the Privy Council, Jia Xu was demoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Intelligence, Xun You, Guo Jia, and Gai Xun were all released, and there was not a single lieutenant left in the Privy Council, which inevitably attracted the suspicion of many ministers.

After Jia Xu heard this holy decree, he didn't feel suspicious at all, although Xun You, Guo Jia, and Gai Xun were all good at military affairs, but they were also quite proficient in political affairs, and they were Lin Nan's cronies, and they were also old celebrities in Huaxia, which should have a great effect on deterring the three newly conquered states.

After the promulgation of the holy decree, Lin Nan asked Chen Lin to promulgate a new round of policy of recuperation and recuperation, preparing to vigorously develop agriculture in Qinzhou, Liangzhou, Jingzhou, and Yizhou.

After that, he dispatched Zhao Yun, the general of Huwei, Gan Ning, the general of Huwei, and Zhang He, the general of Weiyuan, to the southeast coastal area to govern Xuzhou together with Zang Ba, the general of Zhendong, to prevent a sudden attack by Wu. Anita Partridge was also transferred to lead his 20,000 flying guards to the area of Dunhuang to assist the Jingyuan general Wei Yan to deter the Western Regions.

After a series of holy decrees were sent, the Huaxia Kingdom completely entered a state of recuperation, on the basis of maintaining the original army, intensified the development of agriculture, the people took food as the sky, and the country was based on agriculture, in this civilization and science and technology were underdeveloped, there were no pesticides and fertilizers, and they could only rely on the sky to eat, but if they could reasonably use water conservancy and land resources, they might not be able to create a huge agricultural empire.

In addition, commerce and industry also went hand in hand, and because Lin Nan's focus was somewhat biased towards agriculture, the development of industry and commerce was relatively slow.

In May of the sixth year of the Huaxia Kingdom, Lin Nan ordered Wei Yan, the general of Jingyuan, to lead an army of 30,000 to the west along the Silk Road, wanting to open the Silk Road again.

……

Liangzhou. Dunhuang.

After Wei Yan received Lin Nan's holy decree, he immediately came to Anita-Partridge to discuss, Wei Yan's understanding of the Western Regions was limited, and when Lin Nan transferred Anita-Partridge to Dunhuang, Wei Yan was still a little puzzled, until now. Only then did he realize that Lin Nan had asked Anita Partridge to come to Dunhuang to help him open up the Silk Road.

"General Partridge, although the countries of the Western Regions are superficially subordinate to our Huaxia Kingdom, they actually remain self-reliant, I want to ask the west of the Western Regions, what is the situation, if I send 30,000 troops, can I open up the Silk Road?" Although Wei Yan is young. But after some experience in the army, this expedition to the Western Regions and the occupation of the western part of Liangzhou are also indispensable, and it is reasonable to be named General Jingyuan.

Anita Partridge shook her head slowly and said, "The west side is huge. And in addition to our Rome, there are two very powerful empires. One is the Sabbatical Empire located on the Iranian plateau, and the other is the Kushan Empire located in Central Asia, especially the Kushan Empire, which is brave and ruthless, and can fight habitually, with an army of 200,000 alone. When I came all the way from Rome, the king of Sabbath was very courteous, but when I passed through Kushan, the king of Kushan took a fancy to what I was carrying. Directly ordered to rob, kill and seize things, but fortunately I escaped by luck and ended up here. If you want to open up the Silk Road, you must destroy the Kushan, and only by controlling the land of the Kushan Empire in your own hands can the Silk Road be unblocked forever. The Sabbath Empire and the Roman Empire are very friendly and hospitable, so you don't have to go to war at this point, you can only get a good courtesy by sending a caravan, the West lacks Eastern items, and the Eastern country is very mysterious, which is a great compensation for the West. ”

After hearing this, Wei Yan frowned and said, "According to what you say, the Kushan Empire is the number one enemy of our Huaxia Kingdom?" It's just that he has 200,000 troops, and if he attacks rashly, not only will he not get a good result, but he will also anger the King of Kushan. ”

"I'm afraid that's the case, so I suggest that the general write a letter to His Majesty the Emperor, telling His Majesty the Emperor that under these circumstances, it is impossible to develop westward, and when he has enough strength to conquer Guishan in the west with an army of 500,000, he will definitely be able to wipe out Guishan in one fell swoop. Guishan has an enmity with me, and I want to defeat Guishan in one fell swoop, but now is really not the time. However, it is still possible for the general to send 30,000 troops to deter the countries of the Western Regions, such as Dawan, Shanshan, Wusun and other countries, which can allow them to maintain their centripetal force towards Huaxia, which will have a great development of commerce in the future. Anita Partridge has her own advice.

After Wei Yan heard this, he also felt that what Anita Partridge said was reasonable, so he said: "Okay, then we can jointly write a letter to the emperor, state the actual situation, and then send troops to deter the countries in the Western Regions." ”

"The general is wise." Anita Partridge had been in China long enough, and had been courteously treated by Linnan, and had received far more rewards than he had been in Rome, and he did not know if he would return to Rome in his lifetime to report to his majesty, but at this moment, he was a minister of China, and he had to contribute to China.

……

Luoyang.

In the main hall of the palace, Lin Nan opened the joint recital of Wei Yan and Anita Partridge and read it, and felt that what the two of them stated in the recital was very reasonable, so he decided to postpone the idea of opening up the Silk Road for the time being, and wait until the whole country was unified before putting it on the table.

Immediately, Lin Nan wrote a letter and asked someone from the Intelligence Department to pass it on to Wei Yan and Anita Partridge.

Lin Nan had just finished his work here, and Jia Xu, who was the secretary of the Ministry of Intelligence, walked in, holding an urgent letter in his hand, and his face was a little flustered, as soon as he entered the main hall, he immediately walked to Lin Nan's side, and whispered in Lin Nan's ear: "Your Majesty, an urgent official letter from Liaodong ......"

After Lin Nan heard this, he immediately opened it and looked at it, and after hurriedly browsing it, he couldn't help frowning, threw the urgent official letter on the ground, and said angrily: "What does Gongsun Kang eat?" ”

Seeing that Lin Nan was angry, Jia Xu hurriedly picked up the letter, and after reading it in a hurry, he was also a little surprised, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the husband and the rest of the people have always been docile, and they are very centripetal to our Huaxia Kingdom. has been subjugating to our Huaxia Kingdom for many years, King Fuyu will definitely not be so confused, openly rebelled, and led the army to attack Lingcheng, I am afraid there must be a reason. ”

After Lin Nan heard Jia Xu's words, he immediately took the letter and read it carefully. Immediately shouted: "No matter what the reason, King Fuyu openly led the people to rebel, which is a great disrespect to my Huaxia Kingdom, you can give Gongsun Kang an order, let Gongsun Kang, Ma Dai, Yu Poison, and Zhong Limu lead the people to hold on, temporarily avoid its edge, and in addition, the edict ordered Lou Ban to lead 50,000 Karasuma Raiders to Liaodong to assist Gongsun Kang in quelling the rebellion, and then ordered Wang Wenjun, the secretary of the military department, to go to Liaodong to take command." It is necessary to put down the rebellion by fighting a war. ”

Jia Xu hugged his fists and said: "The minister obeys the order." ”

When Lin Nan saw Jia Xu turn around to leave, he immediately shouted, "Wait! There is a letter here, which can be sent to Xuzhou, and must be handed over to Gan Ning, the general of Huwei, in person. ”

"No!"

Wave after wave, although now into a state of recuperation, but many aspects still need to be stable, as long as there is nothing in the northwest and southwest, it is the greatest comfort to Lin Nan. It's just that. King Fuyu openly rebelled, which surprised Lin Nan. I didn't expect that the meek and well-behaved King Fuyu would have so much courage to rebel against him, if the Dongyi tribes responded, it would inevitably become a big trouble for the Huaxia Kingdom, but I am afraid that there will only be a royal drive to conquer at that time.

……

Youzhou. Liaodong.

The sudden attack of the Fuyu people caused the neighboring cities in Liaodong to suffer one after another, first of all, Lingcheng fell, and then several surrounding counties were captured, and the Fuyu people raised a large army of 100,000 soldiers under the city of Liaodong. The entire northeast of Huaxia Kingdom was shocked. However, fortunately, the Dongyi departments did not participate in this rebellion, to put it bluntly, they just sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, once Liaodong was captured by the rest of the people, I am afraid that the Dongyi departments will follow suit.

Eleven years ago, Lin Nan led his army to conquer the Northeast, making all the Dongyi tribes and the surrounding ethnic minorities submit and become the king of the Northeast at that time. With the help of the rich mineral resources of Northeast China, Lin Nan was able to win the world step by step. After 11 years, the problem of the Northeast can still affect the nerves of the entire Huaxia country.

In the city of Liaodong, Gongsun Kang, Ma Dai, Yu Poison, and Zhong Limu all gathered together to discuss how to retreat from the enemy.

Ma Dai first said: "The rebels are large, our army is small, and the rebels' surprise attack has caused our army to lose several cities one after another, I think that when we hold on without fighting, the city of Liaodong is unusually strong, and the grain in the city is sufficient, as long as we wait for the reinforcements to arrive, we can carry out a counterattack." ”

Gongsun Kang, as the prefect of Liaodong Prefecture and General Anton, became the actual leader of Liaodong, and after listening to Ma Dai's words, he immediately said: "Let's do it, now please each of the generals stick to different city gates, and wait for reinforcements to arrive." ”

Outside the city of Liaodong, more than 100,000 people gathered at the north gate, the camp stretched for several miles, and the black pressure was all people, and at a glance, it was so majestic.

In the middle of the camp, there is the camp of the king of Fuyu, Wei Qiutai, who is sitting in the big tent, gathering all the generals, and discussing how to capture Liaodong City.

Wei Qiutai has always pursued harmony with the surrounding people, and submitted to the Huaxia State, and the husband and soul who have not experienced war for many years have been able to develop steadily. In the past, they were often threatened by Goguryeo, but since Lin Nan led the army to the east to conquer Goguryeo in one fell swoop, the Fuyu people had no scruples and had close contacts with Huaxia, so they were able to send envoys to Jicheng to learn the way of the Han people.

After the envoys sent came back one after another, Wei Qiutai grasped the news of the small number of soldiers and widows in the northeast of Huaxia Kingdom, and carried out a major reform within the Fuyu people, abolishing the old system, following the system of Huaxia State, and also formulating a system of three provinces and six ministries in order to control the rest of the people by himself.

In addition, Wei Qiutai also actively improved weapons, vigorously expanded armaments, marched north, eliminated Ding Lingren and occupied a large area of land in the north. Later, Wei Qiutai heard that Huaxia was using troops in the northwest and southwest, and the northeast was empty, so he hurriedly mobilized troops and sent 100,000 male soldiers across the country to launch an attack on Huaxia by surprise, hoping to take the opportunity to occupy large areas of land such as Liaodong, Liaoxi, and Dongyi.

Wei Qiutai is an ambitious person, and he also has a lot of prestige in the minds of the rest of the people, he has read the historical records, and knows the story of the Yue King Goujian lying down and tasting courage, so on the surface he has been subjugating to the Huaxia Kingdom, remembering that time to use troops against Goguryeo, Wei Qiutai once instructed his brother Hu Qiutai, not to engage the Goguryeo people, to preserve strength, but also to let Hu Qiutai deliberately show cowardice, which deeply confused Lin Nan at that time, so that in the eyes of Lin Nan. The husband has always been a docile lamb.

This time, Wei Qiutai suddenly launched an attack, and captured several cities one after another, and the army seemed to be swept away, approaching the city of Liaodong. However, Wei Qiutai himself knew that the fortification of Liaodong City could not be compared with other cities. At that time, Lin Nan started in Liaodong, and Liaodong was the foundation of Lin Nan, and this time he also wanted to pull out this thorn in his side, and after taking Liaodong as his own, he could set up a pass to block the reinforcements of the Huaxia Army, so he could claim the emperor in Liaodong.

"General." Wei Qiutai shouted majestically.

Hu Qiutai immediately stood up, with a hideous look on his face, and he was burly. Wearing a chain of armor, it looks very majestic. I only heard him clasp his fists and say, "King." ”

Wei Qiutai immediately ordered: "Everything is going according to the original plan, Liaodong is surrounded, and the Huaxia Kingdom will inevitably send reinforcements, and it is speculated by this king that it must be the minions of the Huaxia Kingdom, the Karasuma people, they are all cavalry, and the speed will be very fast." In the past two days, try to attack Liaodong City first, if Liaodong is too tightly defended. Don't attack again, concentrate on setting up an ambush circle, just wait for the reinforcements of the Huaxia Army to arrive, as long as the reinforcements are eliminated, with 30,000 troops in Liaodong City, it is not enough to compete with our army. When the time comes, the morale in the city will collapse, and it will not be too late for our army to storm again. ”

"No!" Hu Qiutai immediately replied.

Wei Qiutai looked around at the civil and military ministers present, and said loudly: "All of you are outstanding talents of my husband, this battle is related to the survival of my husband, if you can't occupy Liaodong in a short time." I'm afraid that it will lead to a counterattack by Huaxia, as well as the gang of cubs in Dongyi, they are all people who see the wind and steer the rudder, and now they are sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, once our army successfully captures Liaodong, they will inevitably rise up and turn the other way. However, if our army is defeated, they will fight against each other. You remember, now we are standing on the cusp of the storm, there is no way back, only to move forward bravely, do not enter the tiger's den to get the tiger, for the future of our husband and the rest of the people, let's work together! ”

After the meeting was dismissed, Wei Qiutai made careful arrangements, and the 100,000-strong army began to be divided into four places, and the east, south, west, and north gates of Liaodong City each stationed 25,000 soldiers, and the camp was set up inside and outside the city, blocking the city gates, and not allowing the soldiers or people in the city to come out.

It's April, and in the mountains and forests, birds chirp gracefully, and the moisture of the earth mixes with the fragrance of weeds and leaves. The blue sky was like a vast and quiet sea of people, without a single cloud. The air is moist and refreshing. In the sunlight, the surrounding distant mountains were vividly visible as if they had been washed, and it seemed to be much closer and steeper in front of them.

The men lived by hunting, and the archers were notoriously strong, and their camps were clinging to the woods, the front half on flat ground and the back half clinging to the dense woods. Because the rest of the people did not have many horse troops, and the foot battle on the flat ground was not strong, once the Huaxia army took the horse army to break through, if the front army could not resist, the rear army would use the dense forest to resist the horse army of the Huaxia army, and then shoot it with arrows, so as not to be defeated.

On the upper floor of the southern city of Liaodong City, Ma Dai saw the way the Fuyu people camped, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said lightly: "If you take a fire attack, I am afraid that more than half of the Fuyu people will be killed and injured......

As soon as he thought of this, Ma Dai immediately went to Gongsun Kang. After coming to the east gate, Gongsun Kang was looking at the city from the city tower, but saw Hu Qiutai leading the army to show off his might under the city and shouting, behind him five hundred horse troops, three thousand infantry army looked mighty and majestic, Hu Qiutai held a steel fork, a human head was inserted in the steel fork, and there was a headless corpse on the ground, wearing the military uniform of Huaxia State.

Ma Dai came to Gongsun Kang's side, hugged his fists and said, "General Gongsun." ”

When Gongsun Kang saw Ma Dai coming, a smile appeared on his worried face at the moment, and he pulled Ma Dai and said: "General Ma, it's really good that you are here, the shouting outside is non-stop, and one of my generals will be killed, I don't know if you can?" ”

Ma Dai hugged his fists and said: "What's so difficult about this, I'll just take off the head of the enemy platform, and General Gongsun ......will rest here for a while."

As soon as he finished speaking, before Ma Dai could leave, he saw the city gate suddenly open, and a young man in the uniform of an ordinary soldier held a spear in his hand and rode out of the city. After that, the gates were closed.

Gongsun Kang was furious when he saw it: "Whose subordinate are you, so disobeying orders, that you dare to go out of the city without permission?" ”

The cavalry under the city turned around, hugged his fists towards Gongsun Kang and Ma Dai on the city tower and said: "General Qiyu, in Xia Gan Xiaoning, it is my general who died, I want to avenge him, and I hope that the general will be fulfilled." ”

"How can it be that your general will not be able to defeat him. If you go, you will be sent to death, come back to me! Gongsun Kang was furious and met this disobedient soldier for the first time.

"Since I have come out, I am determined to die and not to avenge the general, what face does my Gan Xiaoning have to stand between heaven and earth? The general just waits for my good news! Gan Xiaoning fell. As soon as his legs caught the horse's belly, he immediately raised his gun and rushed towards the enemy's platform.

Huqiutai was immersed in the joy of beheading the general, and when he saw Gan Xiaoning, who was an ordinary soldier, arrive, he didn't take Gan Xiaoning in his eyes at all, and stabbed at Gan Xiaoning with the steel fork.

The two horses intersected, but when they saw that Hu Qiutai made the first move, he stabbed at Gan Xiaoning's vital point with a wave of the steel fork in his hand, but Gan Xiaoning did not dodge or dodge. Rampage, the spear in his hand did not make any action.

After Gongsun Kang saw it, he sighed and said: "I'm going to die in vain again, my courage is commendable, but it's a pity that I am not an enemy of Taiwan......

Ma Dai's eyes were like torches, and he himself was a master of guns, and after seeing Gan Xiaoning's actions, his eyes widened. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said lightly: "That may not be ......"

The voice had just fallen. But seeing Gan Xiaoning outside the city, the spear suddenly trembled, the tip of the spear was like a spirit snake spitting out a letter, and at the same time, his body fell, and he came to hide in a kick, and the tip of the spear avoided a frontal attack, calling Qiu Tai's heart from the side. A shot was stabbed, but when a piercing scream was heard, Huqiutai was stabbed to death by Gan Xiaoning, and the whole person fell from the horse.

Gan Xiaoning's hand surprised Gongsun Kang, but he didn't expect it to be in his own army. There are also such characters, who immediately praised: "What a talent!" ”

Ma Dai just smiled, looking at Gan Xiaoning's heroic posture, as if he saw himself galloping on the field.

Gan Xiaoning didn't wait for the rest of the husband to react, and immediately picked up the corpse of the enemy with a gun and turned the horse back.

"Open the city gate and let the little hero into the city!" After Gongsun Kang saw it, he shouted loudly.

The city gate here opened, Gan Xiaoning quickly rushed towards the city gate, and the rest of the husband over there reacted, scrambling to follow Gan Xiaoning, wanting to grab the corpse of Hu Qiutai.

"Shoot the arrows!" Before the rest of the husband rushed to the gate of the city, the arrows on the tower of the city had already been shot, and after the powerful arrow array killed more than 100 people, the rest of the rest of the man did not dare to approach, so he could only retreat.

After Gan Xiaoning entered the city, he threw Huqiutai's body to the ground, and he breathed a sigh of relief, his face was even more relieved, and he said lightly: "General, I have finally avenged you." ”

Gongsun Kang and Ma Dai went down to the city tower one after another, and after seeing Gan Xiaoning, they all praised it very much.

Gan Xiaoning was not polite, accepted all the orders, and smiled heartily.

"The little hero made meritorious service today, frustrating the prestige of the Fuyu people, this Hu Qiutai is the younger brother of the Fuyu King Wei Qiutai, killing him, will definitely kill the Wei Qiutai. Since your general is dead, you will take over your position as general and take command of your men. Gongsun Kang said.

"Thank you, General!" Gan Xiaoning immediately hugged his fists.

Gongsun Kang looked at Gan Xiaoning carefully, and was suddenly surprised to find that Gan Xiaoning's appearance was very similar to a person, that is, Gan Ning, the general of the Tiger Guard, and immediately asked: "Have you ever known the general of the Tiger Guard?" ”

Gan Xiaoning smiled and said lightly: "Don't hide it, General Huwei is my father." ”

Gongsun Kang said in surprise: "Sure enough, it is a tiger father without a dog, today there is another General Gan in our army, as long as you plan, you may be able to retreat from the enemy." ”

Ma Dai smiled: "I have a strategy, but I can break the rest of the people." ”

Gongsun Kang hurriedly asked, "What is the policy?" ”

Ma Dai said: "Fuyu people back to the woods for the village, if the fire attack, our army may be able to win more with less, not waiting for reinforcements to arrive, can defeat Fuyu, although not to win completely, but can also give Fuyu a heavy blow." ”

Gongsun Kang smiled: "This plan is very good. Wei Qiutai relies on many people, and there are few people who bully us, if this battle is won, the generals will wait for promotion. After the reinforcements arrived, our army pursued the victory, recaptured the lost territory all the way, killed the Fuyu people's hometown, and completely conquered the Fuyu people. ”

After the discussion, Gongsun Kang and Ma Dai immediately discussed with each other, and then began to dispatch troops, taking the east gate where the main general had lost as a breakthrough point, concentrating superior forces such as cavalry and infantry, and immediately launched an attack outside the city.

Gan Xiaoning and Ma Dai were the left and right forwards, each leading 500 cavalry to rush towards Fuyu, and Gongsun Kang led the infantry to follow.

Huqiutai's death made the Fuyu people confused, and the Fuyu people, who had lost their command, were in a mess, and the front could not resist the offensive of Gan Xiaoning and Ma Dai, so they retreated back one after another, and quickly withdrew from the dense forest. After that, with the help of the cover of the woods, the men began to shoot arrows one after another.

The husband's more than one person's arrows were accurate, and the arrows were smeared with poison, and the wounded died, and for a while Ma Dai and Gan Xiaoning could not move forward, so they had to retreat backwards.

At this time, the infantry led by Gongsun Kang arrived, blocked the front with shields, and approached the woods step by step, blocking all the arrows of the rest of the people out of the shields. Gongsun Kang marched step by step, gradually approaching the woods, and the rest of the people saw that they were helpless, and they were afraid that they would be too close to the Huaxia army, so they retreated into the depths of the dense forest again.

When he was still more than twenty steps away from the woods, Gongsun Kang immediately shouted, "Set fire!" ”

The officers and men of the Huaxia Army, who had been holding back their strength, shot out their ignited crossbow arrows at this time, and shot towards the woods, which were mostly flammable plants, and once they came into contact with the flames, they began to burn after a while. The fire gradually spread to all sides, and after a while, scorching fire dragons were born.

Although the fire broke out, it did not spread as quickly as expected, but it still made the rest of the people start to retreat in a panic.

Ma Dai and Gongsun Kang saw that the goal was achieved, so they began to withdraw their troops back to the city, although there was only such a little fire, but this forest was connected to the three city gates outside the city of Liaodong, once it was completely burned, the rest of the people had to withdraw together.

Wei Qiutai was still in the big tent of the Chinese army, and he had just received the news that his younger brother Hu Qiutai had been killed by the Huaxia army, and immediately saw the billowing smoke rising from the east, and immediately asked, "What happened at the east gate?" ”

"My lord, it's on fire, and the camp of our army outside the east gate is on fire before it is firmly established. The general's subordinates were forced back by the Huaxia army, and the fire began to spread around, getting bigger and bigger, just afraid that there would be a danger of spreading to the other two gates. ”

After hearing this, Wei Qiutai said angrily: "This Hu Qiutai is not enough to succeed and more than to lose, and he clearly told not to attack Liaodong City easily, but he didn't listen." You quickly send an order to withdraw all the troops of the eastern, southern, and northern three gates to the west gate, which is the only way for the Huaxia army to go east and west, as long as it is blocked here, you can cut off the connection between Liaodong and the west, and if reinforcements come in time, our army is enough to deal with it. ”

"No!"

After Wei Qiutai's order was conveyed, all the men and women withdrew to the West Gate, camped in front and back, and stretched for several miles. Wei Qiutai even used huge stones as a way to stop, with a large number of archers to guard, and he went to the rear army in person, observed the terrain, secretly set up an ambush, and let the woods be burned by the fire, he no longer went to battle.

On the tower of Liaodong City, after Ma Dai saw such a scene, he couldn't help frowning, and said to Gongsun Kang: "I thought that Fuyu would retreat in the face of difficulties, but I didn't think that Fuyu would use heavy troops to block the only way for our army to Liaoxi. In this way, the plan of fire attack will be completely frustrated. ”

"I have lived in Liaodong for a long time, Wei Qiutai is shrewd, good at learning, is a rare general, he knows that he will definitely suffer if he is hard, so he refuses to attack. This morning, Hu Qiutai was provoked by my words, so he fought with it, which can be regarded as a small victory for our army, but at the moment of the great enemy, how to retreat from these 100,000 enemies is indeed a difficult problem. General Ma, do you have any other plans? ”。 Gongsun Kang said earnestly. (To be continued......)
