If, at this time, someone overlooks the entire Chengdu Plain, they will be surprised to find that the large army of the Han army is mighty, killing the nest of the small court of Mengshu - Chengdu Mansion.

The Chengdu Plain, in the era of agricultural civilization, is indeed unusually rich, and has always been known as the "land of abundance".

Since Li Bing of the Qin Dynasty opened the north and south of Chengdu and the two rivers of Jianerjiang, Chengdu has become a prosperous city of water transportation.

Jinjiang's water transportation has always occupied a very important position in Chengdu's transportation, which is related to all aspects of Chengdu people's clothing, food, housing and transportation life, and its function can be said to be no less than today's expressway.

Here, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the people are outstanding, the wharf culture is prevalent, the commercial atmosphere is very strong, and all kinds of novel entertainment activities emerge in endlessly.

It is especially worth mentioning that in Chengdu, the beauty of young women is far above the national average.

However, whenever the war in the Central Plains region ended, in the unification war launched by the Central Plains Dynasty, the small secession regimes entrenched in the Chengdu Plain were often presented in the history of the war in the form of the humiliation of surrendering the city.

The most famous surrender of the city is none other than Liu Bei's son, Liu Chan, who is happy to think about it.

When the main army arrived at the city of Hanzhou, the Western Group led by Song Yunxiang rushed up from behind day and night.

Hanzhou, located in the core area of the hinterland of the "Land of Abundance", has been said to be "the gateway of Yizhou, the key to Shu Province, and the Confucius Road to Beijing" since ancient times, and is the north gate of Chengdu.

The Sanxingdui site of Guanghan in Hanzhou is an ancient Shu cultural site from about 5,000 to 3,000 years ago, known as one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of mankind in the 20th century, showing that the Yangtze River basin and the Yellow River basin belong to the mother of Chinese civilization and are known as the "source of Yangtze River civilization".

After the two Han armies of Shu converged, excluding the 10,000 cavalry that Li Yong had taken away, the total number of the main force had reached a staggering 110,000 people.

You must know that when Li Zhongyi first raised troops to destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty, the total number of troops on the expedition was less than 100,000.

It is no exaggeration to say that since the rise of the Hechi Army, this is the largest scale of the Han army's foreign use of troops.

It can be seen from this how resolute is Li Zhongyi's determination to destroy Shu in one fell swoop?

————————————————————————————

"Old lady, the Northern Army has reached the city of Hanzhou, and Chengdu is in danger." The four butlers who were sent out to inquire about the news stood respectfully in front of the bed and whispered the latest battle situation.

"Cough, cough, cough......" Mrs. Zhao coughed wildly, rolled her eyes and almost lost her breath.

The fourth housekeeper was not lightly frightened, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the old lady Zhao, patting the old lady's back gently, and yelling outside the house: "The people outside are all deaf, why don't you hurry up and bring the soup medicine in?" ”

The rules of the old Zhao family are big, and after the old lady Zhao drove the servants and maids out of the house in order to keep it secret, whoever dared to approach the door within five zhang would be tired.

The servants and maids outside heard the roar of the four butlers, and hurriedly rushed in, pouring medicine, knocking on the back, beating the legs, and working for a while, and finally snatched the old lady Zhao back from the hands of death.

"Okay, okay, the old man won't be able to die for a while, so you all step down." The old lady Zhao, who finally relieved herself, was always worried about the rise and fall of the family, and drove the servants and maids out.

"You have been out there all the year round to find out the news, tell me, how long will it take for the Northern Army to arrive in Chengdu?" Old lady Zhao gasped lightly and asked the fourth housekeeper.

The fourth housekeeper is an unusually transparent and understanding person, he can see that the old lady actually understands everything, but he is somewhat unwilling.

"Old lady, please forgive the villain for being bold and outspoken, Yangping Guan Tianwei and Xiongguan Sword Pavilion will be lost so quickly, how many days can little Hanzhou be kept? I am afraid that it will not take a few days for the northern army to reach the city of Chengdu. "The fourth housekeeper is the son and servant of the Zhao family, and he has always been loyal, and he has never said half a lie in front of the old lady Zhao.

Mrs. Zhao was silent for a long time, and suddenly let out a long sigh, and gasped softly: "The old man is also confused, for so many years, he has not secretly contacted him, I really regret it!" ”

The fourth housekeeper whispered: "Old lady, after all, our family is a famous family, and we have soldiers and money in our hands, so it should be Li Zhongyi who took the initiative to send someone to contact our family." ”

Old lady Zhao originally thought so, thinking that if Li Zhongyi wanted to destroy Shu, he would definitely ask for him. When Li Zhongyi secretly sent an envoy, he could also take advantage of the situation to offer a reasonable price and seek space for the old Zhao family to continue to be in power.

Unexpectedly, Li Zhongyi didn't pay attention to him, a powerful faction in Shu, but directly drove the expedition in person, led more than 100,000 elite Han troops, and smashed into the Chengdu Plain.

"In your opinion, what should I do?" Old lady Zhao was already messed up, and actually asked the four housekeepers for advice.

Without the slightest hesitation, the fourth steward suggested in a low voice: "Old lady, please forgive me for being bold and blunt, more than 100,000 northern troops have already reached Hanzhou, and the fall of Chengdu is only a matter of time." If my family wants to stay rich and prosperous for a long time, I am afraid that the only way to do it now is to secretly sacrifice the city, or directly capture the one in the palace. ”

Mrs. Zhao found that the fourth housekeeper was a little unsatisfied, so she waved her hand and smiled: "You and I are father and son, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." ”

"I heard that the Northern Emperor is extremely lustful. If a stunning woman is sent into the curtain of the Northern Emperor, it should play a big role. "The four housekeepers are also a heart of boxing and protecting the family, and they know everything and say everything.

"Alas, the old man is not lustful, the dog is not lustful, and there are few singers at home, so what can I do?" Mrs. Zhao thought this plan was very good, but regretted that she had not made arrangements earlier.

"Old lady, the female disciple of Qingcheng Mountain Miaozhen Immortal is carrying the national color and heavenly fragrance, which is so beautiful that people can't open their eyes." The fourth housekeeper is in charge of the Zhao family's foreign affairs all the year round, and the sources are unusually well-informed, and almost in the blink of an eye, he has found the right target.

"Oh, you're talking about a real person in the Snow Mountain!" Mrs. Zhao pondered for a long time, and suddenly sighed, "She is Zhang Ye's niece, and Zhang Ye died under the calculation of the old man, and the hatred is higher than the sky." ”

The fourth housekeeper whispered: "Old lady, Zhang Ye is a man with a human face and a beast's heart, and he planned to forcibly occupy her ...... regardless of his integrity."

After being reminded, Zhao Lai Taigong suddenly realized that when Zhang Ye was attacked and killed in the capital, the real people of Snow Mountain had already entered Qingcheng Mountain and worshiped Miao Zhenxian as a teacher.

This Miaozhen Immortal is not an ordinary person, but the eldest granddaughter of Meng Chang, the aunt of Shu Lord Meng Chang.

Back then, after the sudden violent death of the ancestor Meng Zhixiang, thanks to the secret ventilation of this Miaozhen Immortal, Meng Chang successfully ascended to the throne.

It is precisely because of this that in the entire Shu Kingdom, the only person who is qualified to enter and leave the palace freely is this Miaozhen Immortal.

Under the protection of Miao Zhen Immortal, the beautiful Snow Mountain real person was saved from Zhang Ye's poisonous hands.

In this way, the logic can be clear: Zhang Ye, a dog thing, wants to occupy the body of the real person in the snow mountain, and the old lady Zhao participated in the conspiracy to eradicate Zhang Ye, and he has become a great benefactor to save the real person in the snow mountain.

In fact, if the benefactor is not a benefactor, the old lady Zhao doesn't care at all, as long as the real person of the snow mountain and his old Zhao family do not have a deep hatred, this is enough.

"If she ......" After all, Mrs. Zhao is a thousand-year-old fox, and she has always taken one step, at least ten steps away.

The fourth housekeeper understood the voice-over, and said with a smile: "The Meng family's country, seeing that the destruction is imminent, the biggest reliance of the real people of the Snow Mountain, Miao Zhen Immortal Chang himself is difficult to protect, where is there still the strength to shelter her?" Alas, the puppet is not guilty, but he is guilty. With her peerless appearance, once she loses her greatest support, she is likely to become a plaything for the powerful to compete with each other. Let me ask, in this world, except for the Northern Emperor, who has the ability to really protect her? ”

"Very good, very good, after all these years of experience, you can really be on your own." Mrs. Zhao laughed loudly, and looked at the four housekeepers with great satisfaction, quite a feeling that my family's thousands of miles of horses had finally come to fruition.

Old lady Zhao was just a little hesitant, he secretly sent someone to help, and after sending the real person of Snow Mountain into Li Zhongyi's arms, would she help the old Zhao family speak?

The words of the four housekeepers completely relieved Mrs. Zhao's concerns, how can you not like it?

The stakes are not complicated. In the future, even if the real person of Snow Mountain is favored by the Northern Emperor again, if there is no huge force outside the palace to help, she can only be alone.

Although the general direction is set, it is necessary to carefully plan the details of the action. So, Mrs. Zhao sent someone to call her most trusted protégé, Min Zihao, to his sickbed.

"Old lady, please forgive the late students for speaking out, and the idea of secretly seizing the palace and capturing Meng Chang is absolutely impossible." Min Zihao's knowledge is much higher than that of the fourth housekeeper, and his views are more comprehensive and thoughtful, "Since the northern army marched south, the lord of the country has rewarded the vigilance inside and outside the palace, although we have the elite Xiaorui army in hand, I am afraid it will be difficult to attack the palace." ”

"Compared with the huge difficulty of attacking the palace, we are quite sure that we will suddenly mobilize troops and horses, take a city gate, and let the northern army enter the city." Min Zihao did not live up to the cultivation of the old lady Zhao, he spoke wholeheartedly from the position of the old Zhao family, "As for the real person of the snow mountain, he liked to be vassally elegant in his later life, but he had contact with her many times. From a close-up look at her later years, she is an extremely intelligent Pretty Shih Tzu. Even if we secretly snatched her and gave it to the Northern Emperor, with her mind and vision, she must know that this is the best choice. ”

"Good. The matter of attacking the city gate was planned by the old man himself, and it can be regarded as doing his last effort for the future future of my Zhao family. "Old lady Zhao is by no means a gallless rat who does things forward-looking, once he makes up his mind, he will immediately put it into practice, "Kuanfu, secretly capture the real person of the snow mountain, and persuade her to be used by me, the old man will be completely handed over to you." ”
