When Wang Mang heard that Wu Han had defeated the Xiongnu again, he happily said to the great Sikong Wangyi in front of him: "Our new dynasty army is still good!" At this moment, the Huns must not dare to invade! ”

Da Sikong Wang Yi poured cold water on him, and he smiled: "Your Majesty, I don't see it that way!" In my opinion, the Huns deliberately withdrew their troops. They, like Jumachi, hope that we will fight the Green Forest Army, and when the time comes, both sides will be defeated. They Huns can sit on the profits of fishermen! ”

"What you say is not unreasonable. But, no matter what we say, the soldiers of the new dynasty don't need to be threatened by the Huns! Wang Mang said with a smile.

The Hun envoy came.

Wang Mang agreed to the Huns' request for peace.

The Xiongnu were in peace with the new dynasty for the time being. However, the Green Forest rebels are becoming more and more rampant!

"Great Marshal, Wang Mang has ordered Jingzhou Mu to mobilize 50,000 people to come and encircle and suppress our Green Forest Army!" Shentu Jianzuo reports.

"There are only 20,000 of us. However, I have already gone to persuade the reckless heroes Ma Wu, Wang Chang, and Cheng Dan to come. Wang Kuang said with a smile.

"They are all masters who live in seclusion!" Shen Tujian said with a smile.

"They also have thirty thousand men, as long as they are united with them. You can definitely defeat Wang Mang! Wang Kuang said with a smile.

"Then let's visit them now!" Shen Tujian said with a smile.

Wang Kuang and Shen Tujian went to the place where Wang Chang, Ma Wu, and Cheng Dan lived in seclusion.

Wang Chang is reading the book of war: "Taigong Art of War".

Ma Wu smiled: "Wang Chang, why do you like to watch the art of war so much?" Do you still plan for Wang Mang to let you be a general and command thousands of troops? ”

"It's not. My father was killed by Wang Mang. How can I work for Wang Mang? But, if there is chaos today. There were uprisings in Jingzhou, Hebei, and Qilu. We can have a chance to show our ambitions! Wang Chang said with a smile.

"That's right. So, Wang Chang, what do you think: who is the target of our service in the current rebel army? Cheng Dan said with a smile.

"There are many rebels in the world. One of the most powerful is the Green Forest Army. Wang Kuang and Wang Feng were brave and good at fighting, and repeatedly defeated the army of the new dynasty. Wang Chang said with a smile.

"I heard that Wang Kuang has 20,000 people, although we are in the grass. However, there are also 30,000 private armed men! Do we need to surrender him? Cheng Dan said with a smile.

"Cheng Dan, you can't care so much about your own self-interest? We are also for the talents of the world to kill the rich and help the poor! Wang Chang said angrily.

At this moment, the little minion came to report: "The three masters, Wang Kuang, Wang Feng, and Shen Tujian, come to visit!" ”

"Hurry up, please." Wang Chang smiled.

Wang Kuang, Wang Feng, and Shen Tujian swaggered into the hall.

Wang Chang, Ma Wu, and Cheng Dan saw the three of them, each with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and their abdominal muscles were protruding. Wang Kuang said with a smile: "When we met for the first time, I, Wang Kuang, brought a meeting gift!" ”

"Yo? What gift? Cheng Dan said with a smile.

He thought to himself: There must be some gold and silver jewelry! Jingzhou has always been rich!

The little minion brought in a big box.

Wang Kuang opened the big box, which was full of bright knives and spears!

"You Green Forest Army is really a charcoal in the snow!" Ma Wu's music blossomed!

Cheng Dan felt extremely disappointed!

He thought to himself: Wang Kuang is also a real person, which rebel is not for his own glory and wealth? How could it be for what people!

Wang Kuang, I don't believe you don't have any gold, silver and jewelry!

Wang Chang smiled and said, "You Green Forest Army, what are you doing here this time?" ”

"Leader Wang, our Green Forest Army hopes to unite with you and fight against Wang Mang's New Dynasty Army together!" Wang Kuang said with a smile.

"That's easy to say! We are all fighting Wang Mang's team, and there is no problem in uniting! But don't know how to unite? Wang Chang asked.

"I have heard that you have 30,000 horses. Therefore, the alliance is to change the banner, you can use the banner of our Green Forest Han Army! Wang Kuang said with a smile.

"Then can we still command our own army?" Wang Chang asked.

"Of course!" Wang Kuang replied.

At the same time, Wang Mang was also looking at the map of Jingzhou in Weiyang Palace.

"Wang Yi, why do you think the Green Forest Army is more brave and good at fighting than Bashu, Juding, and even the Huns?" Wang Mang cried.

"Your Majesty, please forgive your remarks!" Wang Yi was choked up suddenly!

"Wang Yi, we are all brothers. Just say it! Wang Mang said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, the Green Forest Army is all under the banner of the Han Dynasty. The people are thinking about the Han family, so they are brave and good at fighting. Moreover, Wang Kuang also restored the five-baht coin in the occupied area. Now, the Green Forest Army has begun to implement the Han system. Da Sikong Wang Yi cried.

"Could it be that you want me to restore the Han family?" Wang Mang said angrily.

"Of course not. It's just that His Majesty should restore some of the Han system. It is not unreasonable that the Han family can be established for 200 years! The Great Sikong Wangyi wept.

"Wang Yi, you should know. What I hate the most in my life is the Han family's system of pickling and sour rot! Wang Mang scolded.

"Your Majesty, we really need to stop reforming. Now the people's grievances are boiling. There were rebellions in Jingzhou, Hebei, and Qilu. There are countless rebels everywhere who claim to be descendants of the Han family! Isn't it Your Majesty's reason? Wang Yi cried.

"You, are you accusing me?" Wang Mang roared.

"Your Majesty, I am not accusing Your Majesty. I'm just worried about the world of our new dynasty! The new dynasty has long been stormy. We also need to change. Otherwise, the rebels will only intensify, and even attack Chang'an! Wang Yi cried.

"Nonsense. Not necessarily. Those rebels are all Diao. They have been bewitched by the remnants of the former Han Dynasty!" Wang Mang continued to quibble.

Wang Mang thought to himself: Why are the people so ignorant? I am leading them to the path of happiness!

"Your Majesty, your steps are too big! This is not the case with the people today! Wang Yi cried.

In fact, Wang Mang is still too advanced. He always felt that the people should be considerate of themselves. But the people just want to have enough to eat.

Wang Mang only knows how to study science and technology and engage in institutional innovation. These are very bad things. Because, the people of the Han Dynasty did not have such a high level of education!

Wang Mang's measures are a nightmare for the people!

Just when Wang Mang was still arguing with Wang Chang, the palace maid suddenly came to report: "Your Majesty, it's not good." The queen mother is seriously ill and is dying. He wants to see His Majesty for the last time! ”

"What? Is the queen going to die? Wang Mang cried.

He thought to himself: How so? Queen Wang Jingyan is not much big! Why is she like this?

Wang Mang began to gallop to the Jiaofang Palace.

The eunuchs and court ladies all looked at him with strange eyes.

They thought to themselves, "Your Majesty, what's the matter?" What is so alarming?
