In the second year of Han Yanxi (231), Xia May.

The war between the Han and Wei dynasties had been held for a year and a half without a winner, but because the navy deputy governor Ding Feng led the marines to cross the Bohai Bay and land on the coast of the Bohai Sea, they were abused in all directions.

For a while, Jizhou's eastern defense line was suddenly opened.

Just when the various divisions of the Wei army hurriedly met the battle and prepared to send troops to defeat Ding Feng's troops, Shi Bao, who had been wandering around Puyang and Dong'e and could not find it, suddenly seized this God-given opportunity to take the opportunity to cross the river by boat.

Arriving on the north bank, because the Wei army had dispatched the main force to defend the main force of the Han army on the border of each line, resulting in an incomparable emptiness between the states and counties, Shi Bao led his troops to connect more than ten cities, and the troops were strong and vigorous.

For a time, the prestige of the Shibao Department resounded in Hebei Prefecture.

Immediately, Ding Feng and Shi Bao began to consciously converge, and as the Han army broke through to the hinterland, the Son of Heaven Cao Rong once again mobilized the surrounding county soldiers and local powerful private armies to gather to encircle and annihilate the Han army.

Merely.

For more than ten days, after the two converged, they had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and continuously thwarted the attacks of the Wei army.

Under the five battles and five victories, the Han army swallowed the rivers and the Bohai Sea, and the counties of Anping.

When the hinterland fell frequently, and the Han army could not help to go deeper, the Wei soldiers on the front line were all unstable in morale, and their fighting spirit fell to the lowest point in history.

The enthusiasm for the battle was not high, and they were all suspicious: "Until now, the Great Wei, who once shocked the world and owned half of the Central Plains, really has a chance to turn the situation around, turn defeat into victory, and recover the Central Plains?" ”

……

Next, the balance of the situation has gradually shifted to the side of the Han army.

With Shi Bao, Ding Feng and other departments successively crisscrossing the hinterland of Jizhou, so that the Wei State was helpless, and the naval governor Lu Xun took Liaodong, Mahan and other peninsulas as the base, and gradually encroached on the counties of Youyan.

The situation of the Wei State is even more struggling to support, and there will be a time when it is on the verge of collapse at any time.

Finally.

Autumn and August.

In the bleak season of autumn wind, the Han general Guan Ping personally led the main force to break through the important town of Liyang, and Cao Xiu, the governor of Weidu, had no choice but to fight with the whole army in order to protect the safety of Yedu.

Under a large-scale legion battle.

Only then did the Wei army really see how strong the combat power and tenacity of the Han soldiers were, and the advantages of new weapons and equipment and armor were even more visible.

And Guan Ping, who was once good at leading partial divisions deep behind enemy lines, has also grown up extremely quickly, and can take charge of his own affairs, commanding the army and coordinating operations between various armies like an arm.

The war lasted for several hours and ended!

The Wei army was crushed in all directions.

In this battle, Cao Xiu died on the battlefield, and the Wei army was defeated.

After several cities in a row, the city of Weidu Ye is already in front of you, and there is no strong city outside.

Significant progress in the situation on the middle line will naturally affect the second line as well.

Chen Shi, the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front, took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack, but due to the influence of the current situation, the morale of the sergeants and soldiers of the army had begun to weaken, and even if Zhang He used his troops well, he could not resist a full-scale attack.

After holding on for a few days again, the Qingxu defense line, which was dominated by the plains and Jibei, collapsed.

Chen Shi led his troops to take advantage of the situation to enter the hinterland of Jizhou, and joined Shi Bao, Ding Feng and other departments to sweep Jizhou.

Subsequently, he attacked to the southwest again, intending to join the general Guan Ping to hunt the Han emperor Cao Rong in Yedu.

Now in the autumn rainstorm season, just when the water level of Zhangshui rose sharply, all the courtiers of Wei were worried that the Han army would follow the flooding strategy adopted by the previous Wei king when he set Ye City, so they unanimously persuaded the Son of Heaven Cao Rong to move the capital west to Jinyang.

Supplemented by the mountains and rivers, mountains and rivers on the surface, the land of the Three Jin Dynasty is steep to recuperate and recuperate from the attack of the Han army, so as to wait for the times to change and counterattack the Han army to regain the lost territory.

Youyan and Jizhou have been in danger one after another, the situation is critical, and the courtiers have no heart to stick to it, and in desperation, the son of heaven Cao Rong had to make a decision to move the capital again.

While the Han army had not yet besieged the city, the hundreds of civil and military officials and the families of various families rushed to Jinyang in a panic.

The Wei army hurriedly moved the capital to avoid the move, so that the Han army easily pacified Yecheng.

Immediately, the general Guan Ping personally took the town of Yecheng, dispatched the troops to pacify the Quartet, and passed the message to determine the counties.

The two states of Hebei and Youzhou were quickly pocketed and stabilized.

On the other hand, in addition to the fact that Minister Zhuge Liang was still blocked by the confrontation between Shangdang and Cao Allah and could not make a further breakthrough, Wei Yan, who attacked Yanmen and Loufu from the flank, also led his troops to break the defense line of the lead and swept through the second county.

In desperation, he had to lead his troops to enter Daijun to join Sima Yi.

But after the recovery of Yanmen, the pressure also followed, because with the joint march of Budugen and Kebi to abandon their previous suspicions, the grassland outside the pass has gathered more than 100,000 Hu Qi, eyeing the tiger.

In desperation, Wei Yan had no choice but to garrison Yanmen to deter the Hu people.

……

After recovering Jizhou and Youzhou, General Guan Ping ordered all armies to rest for the time being, so as to recuperate, relieve the fatigue of the battle for several days, and enjoy the joy brought by the great victory after the war.

Summer September.

With the joy of victory in recovering Hebei, Youzhou and other states, the Son of Heaven Liu Chan decided to move the capital to start, and under the advice of Prime Minister Zhuge Liang and General Guan Ping, Chang'an was set as the capital, the land of Guanzhong was rebuilt, and the prosperity of the past was restored.

It took nearly three months of hard work before the relocation of the capital basically came to an end.

Shu Han moved the capital to Chang'an, officially realizing the goal of "returning to the old capital".

For a time, the civil and military ministers were all looking forward to it, hoping to break through the counties as soon as possible, overthrow the rule of the puppet Wei, unify the world, make the people of the world peaceful and happy, and Sanxing the Han family in Xichuan.

In the harsh winter, the northern grasslands were even colder, and the more than 100,000 Hu cavalry who had gathered outside the pass also slowly retreated.

For a time, the pressure on the northern part of the Han army was greatly reduced.

Next year.

Just after the spring of the third year of the reign of Han Yanxi (232), the Han Empire reached a consensus under the deliberations of the whole country, and devoted all the strength of the whole country to overthrow the rule of Wei and make the world peaceful.

The resolution has been taken.

The Han army went out from all directions, with Wei Yan, Zhuge Liang, and Guan Ping as the commanders of the three-way army, and attacked Jinyang from Yanmen, Hedong, and Changshan respectively.

For a time, the Han army gathered the strength of the whole country and sent more than 200,000 troops to take Jinyang City, the capital of Wei.

After several months of fierce fighting, the various units of the Han army finally gathered in Jinyang City in autumn and July to launch a general attack.

The Wei State, which had few soldiers, was destroyed!

Wei generals Cao Zhen, Zhang He, Sima Yi and others died on the battlefield.

The Son of Heaven Cao Rong was so humiliated that he committed suicide by hanging on the beams of the house in the palace.

At this point, the merger of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty was finally recovered, the unification of the world was realized, and the Han family was truly supported.

At the same time as the Wei State was destroyed, Ma Tan and Jiang Wei's Western Expeditionary Army also implemented the tactics of attacking the heart with the assistance of Oh He and Yao Ge after penetrating into the counties of the Western Regions, on the one hand, to win over the countries close to the Han faction, and on the other hand, to conquer the countries by thunderous means.

With such grace and power, all the countries of the Western Regions were intimidated by the rule of the Han Dynasty.

The Silk Road was opened, and the Han Empire immediately announced the resumption of the Silk Road.

……

The Great Wei is gone.

Liu Chan, the son of the Han Dynasty, was naturally a meritorious minister, during which the most significant meritorious service was Prime Minister Zhuge Liang and General Guan Ping, who gave Zhuge Liang the lieutenant of the division, took charge of national affairs, and gave the marquis.

With the General Administration of Guanping, the world's soldiers and horses.

Subsequently, Wei Yan, Chen Shi, and Huang Quan were given to the hussar generals, the chariot generals, and the Wei generals.

He also gave Wu Yi, Deng Zhi, Fei Shi, and Fu Wei four generals respectively.

Next, he rewarded Wang Ping, Ma Zhong, Jiang Wei, Zhang Yi and other meritorious soldiers, all of whom were promoted to one level, gave countless money, and hundreds of Shu brocades.

Subsequently, he wantonly ordered Yang Wan, Ma Liang, Yin Guan, Pan Jun, Ma Jian and others to enter the court as officials.

A lavish reward, announcing the revival of the Han Dynasty and once again dominating the fate of China.

This year, Liu Chan, the Son of Heaven, changed Yuan Jingyao, took this year as the first year, and granted amnesty to the world.

Next, the Han Empire restarted the Silk Road, focusing on people's livelihood internally, colonizing the valley, reducing the army, and only retaining 100,000 mobile elite regiments in the country to deter the Quartet.

A year later.

In the second year of Jingyao (233).

With the pacification of the world in the Han Dynasty for a year, the various measures to pay attention to people's livelihood and agriculture have been carried out in a big way, and the wind and rain have been smooth in the past year, and the country and the people have been safe, and a bumper harvest has been achieved in the autumn.

Almost every household is overflowing with rice and full of grain.

—————

The economy and population are continuing to recover gradually.

In this year, Guan Ping also went to the imperial court and established the Yangzhou Navy with the approval of Liu Chan, with Jiangdu as the naval base and Lü Dai as the governor.

This is the second largest naval base after the Qingzhou Navy.

The naval governors Lu Xun and Lu Dai also followed Guan Ping's instructions and began to sail out to sea, and all the islands they passed along the way were accepted as colonies.

Autumn September.

The general Guan Ping led Pang De, Ma Dai and Wei Lei and other generals with more than 10,000 elite horsemen out of the fortress, and returned in December in winter.

In just a few months, he swept across the grassland, and broke the Xianbei coalition army in Wangting Danhan Mountain, after this battle, the strength of the Xianbei Department was greatly damaged, and Kebi Neng couldn't help but feel that Guan Ping was a more terrible person than Cao Zhang in the past.

The royal court lost hundreds of thousands of people and Dingkou, and he led the people to move north to the bitter cold land of Mobei to avoid its sharpness.

Jingyao was in the spring of the third year.

Guan Ping led the crowd out of the Saihu again for a month, and rode more than 10,000 people back, so far, the name of Guan Ping shocked the Saihu, so that the nomadic tribes outside the Sai were all frightened, and fled in the wilderness.

Summer April.

Guan Ping conquered more than 10,000 people in the south, and like soldiers, rattan armor soldiers expeditions to Southeast Asia, even several countries, and finally because the terrain and climate were too complicated, the sergeants were not adapted to the water and soil and terminated, and returned to the country.

Summer May.

Guan Ping went to Jianye again, personally led the Yangzhou Navy to the sea to invade the islands of Southeast Asia, and the islands along the way were in the bag, establishing naval bases, and gradually merchant ships held regular trade.

Perhaps, Guan Ping didn't know that his move turned out to be that decades later, the Han Dynasty successfully opened up the Maritime Silk Road and organized a huge number of sea ships to go to sea to trade, which made the income soar.

That's all for later.

And during this voyage, the navy unexpectedly discovered that the Sun group, which had no choice but to flee overseas due to the fall of the Wu Kingdom, had fled to Yizhou Island.

Due to the strong combat power of the Wu army, as well as advanced ships and weapons, Sun Quan quickly pacified Yizhou and established a state on the island as the emperor, with the country name "Wu".

After detecting this situation, Guan Ping inevitably encountered the hidden danger of the Han Dynasty, so he mobilized the Qingzhou division to lead the troops to encircle and attack on the one hand, and commanded the navy to blockade Yizhou Island on the other.

Due to several years of colonization, many islands in the southeast have established naval strongholds of the Han Dynasty, which also makes communication much easier.

A few days later.

Lu Xun personally commanded the navy of 20,000 to converge.

In the end, the state of Wu was overnumbered and attacked on Yizhou, the state of Wu was declared destroyed, and Emperor Sun Quan of Wu was also escorted back to Chang'an.

With the defeat of Yizhou, Guan Ping analyzed the terrain and decisively asked for the establishment of the South China Sea Navy, using the South China Sea as a naval base and Yizhou as a liaison station, so as to facilitate the acquisition of the South China Sea islands in the future.

After a lot of operations, I couldn't help but let the Chinese marine civilization gradually start to reach the peak step by step.

……

In the summer and July, the Yangzhou Navy returned to Jiangdu, and Guan Ping was recalled to Beijing by Liu Chan, the Son of Heaven.

For a time, Guan Ping led his troops to travel against the Yangtze River by boat.

Passing through Jianye, Jiangling, Gong'an and other big cities along the way, Guan Ping felt deeply for a while, and couldn't help but deeply touch the sadness in his heart.

He couldn't help but recall that at the beginning of the crossing, he helped his father expel the invasion of the Wu army and defend Jingzhou, thus helping Shu Han to have the opportunity to revive the Han dynasty step by step and dominate the world.

But time has passed, things have long been wrong, how many people with lofty ideals, heroes and heroes have left with the passage of time, just like the surging Yangtze River, gone forever.

He still can't help but feel a trace of loneliness and desolation in his heart, and unconsciously sings:

"The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes. Success or failure turns empty. The green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red several times.

On the white-haired fisherman river, accustomed to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet. How many things in ancient and modern times are laughing and talking. ”

Guan Ping unconsciously confided in his heart and sang the content of "Linjiang Immortal", in order to convey the sadness in his heart, the boundless emotions of heroes and heroes.

……

Some staff members couldn't help but persuade: "The general has experienced a hundred battles and has made many military exploits, and his prestige has long been majestic and terrifying, which makes the Son of Heaven extremely awe-inspired. ”

"The so-called lackey cooking; The high bird is exhausted, and the good bow is hidden; The enemy country is broken, the ministers are dead, the current general is majestic, it is inevitable that he will not be afraid of suspicion and the jealousy of the Son of Heaven, rather than sit back and watch the killing, it is better to summon the division of the world to raise troops and serve the king, conquer the two capitals in one fell swoop, and stand on his own is not beautiful? ”

"With the prestige of the general in the south of the Yangtze River, he will inevitably follow in groups."

"Shut up!"

It's just that when Guan Ping heard this, his face changed, and then he scolded angrily.

"If you dare to do such a rebellious remark in the future, Hugh blames the sword for being ruthless!"

The reprimands shouted at the dismissal of this staff, and Guan Ping then expelled him from the government and demoted him to a commoner.

Persuade him to stand on his own feet?

How is this possible, his father's brotherhood with Liu Bei is comparable to Taoyuan for the sake of the Han Dynasty, and he swears to serve the Han Dynasty.

How could he do this, to be a thief for his father and for the Guan family?

I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse when I return to Beijing this time, but no matter what, Guan Ping will not have the heart to be self-reliant.

He already has two sons, a daughter, and siblings, and now that he has assisted the Son of Heaven in reviving the Han Dynasty, what he needs next is to protect the Guan family.

For several days, Guan Ping drifted on the Yangtze River towards Chang'an, Kyoto, accompanied by the sound of endless water on the tributaries of the Yangtze River......
