Zhou Tai led Huang Dao Zhou to see Han Xuan, and Han Xuan was overjoyed and said: "Huang Ergou! It's great that you're alive. As for Chen Wu, he must still be alive, right? ”

Huang Daozhou nodded, and Han Xuan said excitedly: "I knew that kid didn't die so easily, where was he?" Why don't you come with you? ”

Huang Daozhou told Han Xuan about their trapped Shanyue tribe, and Han Xuan hurriedly summoned Tai Shici and rushed to the mountains with a large army.

Han Xuan led the army to suddenly appear in the Shanyue tribe, Chen Wu was a little caught off guard, and he came in person. Fu Yi, the king of Shanyue, had already confronted Han Xuan with Shanyue soldiers, and Fu Yi asked in a very non-fluent Chinese: "Who are you?" Why did you trespass into my territory? ”

Han Xuan heard it vaguely and said, "Lord Lord, I am a general of the Han Dynasty, and I am here to look for my brother. His name is Chen Wu, and I hope you can raise your noble hand and let him go. ”

Fu Yi muttered a lot in Shanyue again, Han Xuan and they didn't understand at all, Tai Shici stepped forward and said: "Lord, don't talk nonsense with them, wait until the last general captures the thief." They will definitely be able to force them to hand over General Chen Wu. ”

Tai Shi Ci was just about to order the archers to pull the strings and arrows, but Chen Wu ran over and shouted, "Stop!" ”

Han Xuan saw Chen Wu rushing over excitedly, hugged him, patted him on the back and said, "You kid, you don't know how much I worry about you if you don't die, do you know how worried I am about you?" ”

Chen Wu smiled, pushed Han Xuan away and said, "Big brother, I don't want to go." Take your troops and retreat, these people are like relatives to me, and I can't harm them. ”

Han Xuan stared at him blankly and asked, "What's wrong with you?" This is not your home, your home is in Lujiang! Your mother, me, we are your relatives! ”

Chen Wu walked towards the King of Shanyue, turned back to Han Xuan and smiled bitterly: "Where is our home, don't you know yet?" ”

Han Xuan was silent, yes, they didn't belong to this era in the first place. The so-called home is nothing more than a dream bubble, which can be destroyed by war at any time.

Ju Rong rushed over, Chen Wu hugged him back to the King of Shanyue, Han Xuan finally raised his head and shouted, "Chen Wu!" Do you really want to put our friendship for so many years behind you? Have you forgotten Cai Wenji? Have you forgotten our vows and dreams together? ”

Chen Wu's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he took a step forward, and Ju Rong looked at his face and shook his head at him.

Chen Wu retracted his steps, and Ju Rong leaned on his broad shoulders, her face beaming with happiness.

Han Xuan stood in place for a long time and was reluctant to leave, looking at Chen Wu's eyes and losing concentration. Han Xuan raised his head and laughed for a while, then turned to Tai Shici and the others and said, "Go!" ”

Tai Shi Ci gathered the army and turned to leave, Han Xuan followed behind, walking forward without looking back. Han Xuan's figure was almost covered by the woods, and Chen Wu couldn't see him, and his heart kept pounding.

Chen Wu put aside Ju Rong and chased frantically in the direction where Han Xuan had left. Ju Rong fell to the ground, stretched out her hand to look at Chen Wu's back, and cried sadly.

"Will ...... Checkmate! Huang Daozhou shouted, "Huh? Han Xuan was puzzled, and when he looked back, Chen Wu ran over panting.

Chen Wu knelt down on one knee and bowed to Han Xuan: "Guilty general Chen Wu, I implore the general to punish you!" ”

Han Xuan walked up to Chen Wu and helped him up, and said with a smile, "I knew you would definitely come." ”

On the way back, Han Xuan and Chen Wu said as they walked, and Chen Wu said: "Rong'er is a good girl, I'm sorry for her and took advantage of her feelings." ”

Han Xuan coughed a few times and said, "Actually, you can take her with you." ”

Chen Wu shook his head, a hint of softness flashed in his eyes, and he sighed: "She can't go against the ancestral teachings, it's okay to stay here, there is a lot of war outside, she will be safe here." ”

Returning to Yuqian, all the soldiers cheered happily when they saw that the brave General Chen Wu had returned. Chen Wu lost the overlord gun, and the Black Wind BMW was also exhausted, Chen Wu no longer felt so domineering, but a little more affinity.

This time, Han Xuan fought with Zhou Yu, completely swallowing Zhou Yu's 20,000 troops and capturing thousands of surrendered soldiers. He Qi, Cheng Shi, Huang Bing and other generals were captured, and they were sacked by Shanyue in various places, and now they have suffered heavy losses.

Huang Zhong even dragged Sun Ben and kept the counties in the north of Danyang, and Wu County had no soldiers and no generals. Now Han Xuanzheng can take Wu County in one go, but the army is insufficient.

Han Xuan had a headache, if taxes and conscription were increased, it would inevitably cause public resentment to boil, and even a rebellion. Population, it's always a big problem! There were not enough soldiers and horses in Lujiang and Danyang counties, and Han Xuan was afraid that Yuan Shu would take the opportunity to send troops south.

The strategists and generals offered advice on the dilemma of the lack of troops, but none of them could come up with good advice. Chen Wu sighed: "It's all my fault for the rash advance of the enemy, resulting in the annihilation of the 10,000-strong army." ”

Han Xuan patted Chen Wu on the shoulder: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, you are the first time to lead so many people, and your opponent is Zhou Yu, it is inevitable that there will be such a big defeat." ”

Chen Wu pulled out his long sword and put it on his neck, Han Xuan was startled, and hurriedly shouted, "Chen Wu, what are you doing?" ”

Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Zhang Zhao, Chen Qun and others were all amazed by Chen Wu's actions, and Chen Wuli said there: "I'm sorry brothers, I promised to take them out to kill, and those who fight hard will be rewarded." But I and the zodiac survived on Tuesday, so what face do I have to meet their relatives? ”

Zhong Xuan persuaded and said: "General Chen Wu must not commit suicide, you are the lord general." Although you are responsible for the defeat and loss of the army, but the two armies are fighting, and casualties are inevitable, so why should you care? ”

Chen Wu burst into tears and said in a lamenting voice: "That's 10,000 people!" They were living human lives, and I caused them to die in vain. ”

Han Xuan walked down the steps and said, "The soldiers died in vain, and I am also responsible. I was unable to detect Zhou Yu's movements in time, which led to a surprise attack on our army. According to military law, I am responsible for negligence, and I should be beheaded! ”

Han Xuan pulled out his sword and was about to kill himself, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai hurriedly came to the rescue, Zhang Zhao said: "The righteousness of the ancients' Spring and Autumn Period: the law is not respected. How can the army of the lord and president kill themselves? ”

Han Xuan pondered for a long time, and then said: "Since "Spring and Autumn" has the meaning of 'the law is not added to respect', I will avoid death. ”

Han Xuan cut off his hair with a sword, threw it on the ground and said, "A certain hair cutting right is the head." ”

Chen Wu also cut off his hair and repented deeply. In the eyes of the ancients, the body was exposed to skin and parents, and they did not dare to destroy it. The ancients kept their hair long without cutting it as a sign of respect for their parents. For Han Xuan and Chen Wu, two modern people, cutting hair is as common as a haircut.

Everyone admired Han Xuan and Chen Wu solemnly, and the two of them were really repenting in their hearts, and it was inevitable that there would be casualties on the battlefield, but this time it was indeed caused by Chen Wu's rash attack on the enemy.

Seeing the mourning atmosphere on the field, Chen Qun came out and said: "Lord, 10,000 soldiers have died in battle, and the lord should deeply compassionate his relatives to calm the hearts of the people." ”

Han Xuan nodded and said: "What the long text said is extremely true, order the treasurer to calculate the required funds and allocate them to the relatives of the fallen soldiers." If it is not enough, it will be deducted from my money. ”

Chen Wu also donated a year's worth of money to the families of the fallen soldiers, and Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Zhang Zhao and others also donated. The whole army donated some to some extent, but the county scholars and wealthy merchants refused to donate more, and Han Xuan was a little displeased.

Han Xuan mobilized the defense of the counties, but the troops were still empty, and Tuntian needed a large number of people, and the Tuntian army could not be moved lightly.

Chen Qun suggested: "My lord, when it comes to developing the population, the group has a strategy. Widows everywhere can be encouraged to remarry, and those who remarry and have children can be rewarded. ”

Han Xuan was surprised: "I'm afraid that the widow will keep the festival and refuse to remarry." ”

Han Xuan thought that the Han Dynasty, like the later Song Dynasty and other dynasties, attached more importance to chastity, and remarriage would be morally condemned by society.

Chen Qun said with a smile: "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, as long as it is profitable, someone will do it in the end." ”
