Han Xuan and Gu Li searched Zuo Ci all the way to this Tianmen Mountain, just because the nearby villagers rumored that there were immortals cultivating here on the mountain, Han Xuan mistakenly thought that Zuo Ci was here.

Han Xuan saw the killing intent in the eyes of these Taoist priests, and they approached step by step, making Han Xuan and Gu Li extremely nervous. When Han Xuan went up the mountain before, he left the rest of his entourage at the bottom of the mountain, and it was probably too late for them to come up the mountain to save him.

Despite this, Han Xuan still took out the signal flare and released it into the sky. This kind of signal flare was improved by Han Xuan and Chen Wu according to the principle of fireworks, so it was carried with them, and now it is equipped in the Shadow Tiger Army to transmit signals.

Since the two met in this troubled world, the two began to study gunpowder. Their understanding of gunpowder is one nitrate, two charcoal and three sulfur, but they do not know the specific ratio of gunpowder. After countless research failures, Han Xuan and the others made the simplest gunpowder pack.

Later, Chen Wu inadvertently mentioned fireworks to Cai Wenji, and Chen Wu made up his mind to improve gunpowder, and Han Xuan also gave him a lot of research funds and manpower. Eventually, multicolored fireworks were developed, as well as this flare.

At this time, these Taoist priests saw the signal flare flying into the sky, piercing the sky and blooming with dazzling light, and they were surprised by this new thing for a while. They stared blankly at the sky, which gave Gu Li time to react, and Gu Li drew his sword and rushed out of the encirclement of these people with Han Xuan.

And Han Xuan's entourage, who was on standby at the foot of the mountain, were all the elite of the Shadow Tiger Army, and when they saw the signal flare, they immediately split up. Ride a fast horse all the way to inform Gan Ning, and bring weapons all the way up the mountain to support.

On the top of the mountain, those Taoist priests immediately chased after Han Xuan and Gu Li after they reacted. The three Taoist priests rushed to the front first, and Gu Li stepped forward to block it with his sword. These Taoist warriors are good at martial arts, and Gu Li was defeated again and again for a while.

Han Xuan also pulled out his sword to slay the dragon to assist Gu Li, and the two of them went up left and right, and finally knocked the three of them back. But more Taoist priests in the back chased after him with swords, and it would be too late if he didn't run, Gu Li hurriedly said to Han Xuan: "Lord, go quickly, I'll break the queen!" ”

"No, let's go together! I've already set off flares, and Gan Ning will soon lead his army to the rescue. Han Xuan stabbed a rushing Taoist priest to death with a sword and said to Gu Li.

However, there were too many Taoist priests chasing behind, and Han Xuan couldn't beat them, and they couldn't escape. Gu Li smiled miserably at Han Xuan at this time: "Lord, I, Gu Li, can serve you in this life, and I will die without regrets!" Let's go, Jiangdong can't be without a king, and the world can't be without a king! ”

Gu Li struggled to push Han Xuan away, and Han Xuan was so pushed that he almost rolled down the mountain. After Han Xuan stabilized his figure, he saw Gu Li struggling to kill a Taoist priest, snatching his sword and slashing it with both hands. For a while, so many people were blocked from moving forward, and Gu Li himself was hit by several swords.

Han Xuan looked at Gu Li who was fighting bloodily, tears moistened his eyes, but he had to go, and only by living could he avenge Gu Li.

As the saying goes, it's easier to go up the mountain than to go down, Han Xuan walked through the bushes on the edge of the cliff, and his face was scratched by thorns. At this time, the sound on the mountain became smaller and smaller, and those Taoist priests chased after him again, Han Xuan was so anxious that the sword holding the ground of the mountain road suddenly slipped, and Han Xuan rolled down the mountain in one fell swoop.

Han Xuan was knocked to pieces by stones and sand in the process of rolling down, and finally stopped when he hit a crooked-necked tree on the edge of the cliff. Han Xuan only felt a feeling of suffocation coming from him at this time, and he couldn't breathe.

Han Xuan saw Yu Ji's face in a daze, and his heart was full of thoughts. Han Xuanxin said that he actually threw himself into the net, but he didn't expect that he didn't find Zuo Ci, but instead broke into the lair of the Heavenly Tribulation Gate by mistake.

Let's say that Han Xuan sent Zhang Liao to make an envoy to Jiaozhi and Shixie to resist Liu Bei together. Since Liu Bei was assisted by Zhou Yu, he first set up a bureau to kill Cangwu Taishou Wu Ju and then replaced him. Then Liu Bei left Zhou Yu to guard Cangwu, and sent Guan Yu to lead Guan Ping and Mi Fang to attack Yulin, Zhang Fei and Liu Feng to attack Nanhai County, and Liu Bei led troops to attack Hepu County.

Liu Bei's armies from all walks of life are progressing smoothly, and Liu Bei's rise in Jiaozhou is unstoppable. And Shixie, the old fox, can't sit still for a long time, and if Liu Bei continues to develop like this, Jiaozhou will no longer be their Shi family.

At this time, Zhang Liao came to make an envoy, and the big stone in Shixie's heart was put down. Shi Xie ordered people to prepare local specialties such as bananas and longan, and set up a banquet to entertain Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao went to the meeting single-handedly, but he didn't bring his entourage. This made Shi Xie very faceless, but he also admired Zhang Liao's courage, and Zhang Liao expected Shi Xie's psychology. Liu Bei sat in Jiaozhou, and Shixie took refuge in Liu Bei at most to retain his original position, and it is very likely that he will only accept a vacant position. But if he took refuge in Han Xuan and drove Liu Bei away, he Shixie would still be able to control Jiaozhou, but he would nominally be a vassal to Han Xuan and pay tribute every year.

Zhang Liao had already guessed Shi Xie's psychology, but Shi Xie couldn't see through Zhang Liao. In the pavilion that night, Zhang Liao opened the bag of the military advisor Pang Tong, and saw that the paper read, "I want to capture the old and preach the king; Knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey! ”

Zhang Liao carefully studied Pang Tong's meaning, and then in the subsequent negotiations, he tried to capture the old man, saying that Han Xuan sent him to take over Jiaozhou, and if Shi Xie did not pay tribute to Han Xuan, then let Shi Xie deal with Liu Bei by himself, and Han Xuan said that the first thing the queen would fight was Shi Xie.

Only then did Shixie ask for words and sign an alliance with Jiangdong. Shi Xie was responsible for the supply of the Jiangdong Army when fighting against Liu Beijun, and Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Buqi divided their troops to block Liu Beijun's march.

The Nanhai County Shou Shiwu did not listen to Shi Xie's orders and rashly surrendered to Zhang Fei. Zhang Liao had no choice but to lead the army to the conquest, personally selected 800 elite soldiers, attacked the Shiwu camp at night, and broke the army of 10,000 Shiwu with 800 people, and captured Shiwu alive.

Since then, the Jiaozhou soldiers have been frightened when they heard Zhang Liao's name, and the people of Jiaozhou have just said: "Zhang Liao is here!" The child immediately stopped crying.

After the war, Zhang Liao ordered the generals to send Shiwu to Shixie for processing, and Nanhai County was included in the territory of Jiangdong. This battle warned those landlords who tried to surrender to Liu Bei, and also sounded the alarm for Liu Bei.

Then Zhang Liao and Gao Shun defeated Zhang Fei and Liu Feng in Zhongsu, and Liu Bei was furious and wanted to personally lead troops to fight Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, but was dissuaded by Sun Gan. Liu Bei then became angry with his son Liu Feng, seized his military power, and handed over the army to Mi Fang's command.

Bu Qi, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun divided their troops to attack, and Liu Bei had no choice but to give up attacking Hepu County and withdraw his troops back to Cangwu.

Liu Bei saw Zhou Yu in disgrace and sighed: "Military advisor! Gong Jin! You said before that I will be able to accomplish something when I come to Jiaozhou, and I can't take a single Nanhai County today, how can this be good? ”

Zhou Yu saw Liu Bei complaining here again, got up and comforted: "Why should the lord be troubled? The strategist changes with the times and takes advantage of the situation. Now Jiangdong Lu Xun led the army to confront Zhao Feng, and the Han and Liu families will have a battle soon! Only when Jingzhou was in turmoil, the lord held high the banner of calming the people and quelling the chaos, and led the army commander with me to drive straight into Jingzhou and recapture Jingzhou. and then south to Jiaozhou, you can compete with Han Xuan and Liu Du. ”

However, it was said that Liu Du learned that Lu Xun had led the army to Jingling, and urgently summoned everyone to discuss. Fa Zheng said: "Today, the Han side is determined, and our army is tired. Lu Xun must have come here to take Nanjun. Although General Zhao Feng is brave and strategic, but there is Cao's army in the north of Jingzhou, he can first send a general to rush to the rescue of the army to prevent a two-front battle. ”

Zhuge Liang said: "You can send Zilong to join his brother and fight the enemy together." ”

Liu Dugang was about to order Zhao Yun to lead the army to the rescue, but saw a veteran general come forward and bowed: "Who is Lu Xun?" Unheard! What a Confucian student, the last general Yan Yan is willing to lead an army to rescue, and he will mention Lu Xun's head to the king! ”

Liu Du looked at Yan Yan angrily, they naturally didn't know Lu Xun's name, but as a traverser, he knew how powerful Lu Xun was. Liu Dugang wanted to dissuade him, but saw that Zhuge Liang had already used the radical method against Yan Yan.

Zhuge Liang shook the goose feather fan and said, "Eh, the old general is old. Now Hanzhong is far away from Nanjun, and the army is running around day after day, and then fighting with the enemy, I am afraid that the old general will not be able to parry. Let's send General Zilong there. ”

Yan Yan said: "I have been working since the king entered Sichuan, and I have been industrious. Although he is more than seventy years old, he still eats ten catties of meat, can open a two-stone bow, and can ride a horse for thousands of miles, but he is not old enough. Why do the Lord and the military advisor say that I am old and useless? A certain is willing to set up a military order, confront the Jiangdong soldiers, and see me beheading the generals, old and not old! ”

Liu Du had no choice but to order Yan Yan as the main general, leading Feng Xi, Wu Ban and other generals to lead 20,000 troops to Nanjun to rescue.

Zhao Feng was assisted by Ma Liang, Liao Hua and others, and fought with Lu Xun and won and lost each other. It's just that Cao Ren, who occupies Fancheng in the north, sends troops to attack and harass from time to time, which makes Zhao Feng a headache.

Half a month later, Yan Yan led the army to Zhao Feng's camp, and Zhao Feng followed Yan Yan and ordered Feng Xi and Wu Ban to lead troops to be stationed in Houzhai, and then fight with Lu Xun after visiting Lu Xun's camp in the coming days.
