successfully won the two cities, and Lu Zhi was in a relaxed mood. And Gong Cao's report made him even more surprised. Outside the Bone City of Susheng and the Gully City, iron ore has been discovered, and there are still a lot of reserves. As soon as Lu Zhi was happy, he took the generals to inspect the iron mine.

Although there are iron ore mines in Liaodong, it is not easy to transfer at this time, if it can be mined and smelted on the spot, it can also reduce the loss on the road, and by the way, it can also reduce the burden on Qingzhou. Liaodong is currently engaged in large-scale development, and all kinds of materials are in short supply, and many materials are continuously transported from the sea from Qingzhou.

When Marudu City learned that the Bone City and the Gully City had fallen, he couldn't help but be shocked. Let's not talk about the ditch city, the Susheng Bone City is also a Xiongcheng that can be compared with the Goguryeo City of the Han Dynasty, how can you say that it is gone? In the eyes of the Goguryeo people, Goguryeo City is a big city.

The king of Goguryeo was shocked and angry, and called the two brothers Gongsun Kang and Gongsun Gong overnight: "Didn't you say that the Han soldiers were not enough to worry about? Now it's okay, it's almost at the doorstep, what should I do? ”

Gongsun Kang was disdainful in his heart, his father couldn't defeat the Qingzhou Army, what are you barbarians? If it weren't for the fact that I wanted to provoke you to go to war with Qingzhou, our brothers would still need to stay in your place and suffer?

On his face, he was respectful: "Don't panic, the king, please investigate it first, ask for details, and then discuss the strategy." Only by knowing each other and knowing oneself can one know how to deal with the Han soldiers. ”

So the king of Goguryeo brought up the soldiers who fled back from the two cities, and carefully interrogated them one by one, and learned that the city of Susheng was breached by a strange siege equipment, and the city of Xugou was attacked by the Han army from afar, and after taking advantage of the opportunity of the Lu army to enter the city and succeeded, the king of Goguryeo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Strange and skillful skills, what are you afraid of, I have a lot of Goguryeo warriors. The Han army had to sneak attack to obtain the city of Weigou, and it seems that the combat effectiveness is not much stronger.

At this time, the king of Goguryeo had selectively forgotten the fact that his father was beaten by the Han army.

When Brother Gongsun Kang returned home, he closed the door, looked left and right, and saw that there was no one around, so Gongsun Kang said in a low voice: "Second brother, the fall of Goguryeo is imminent, we have to leave first." ”

Gongsun Gong said: "Big brother, it's too early for the Qingzhou Army to come here, do you have to leave at this time?" "Goguryeo men and women are open-minded, and he is messing around here, a little reluctant to leave.

Gongsun Kang said: "It's best to go at this time, and it's a little later, if you really wait for the Qingzhou army to press the border, you won't be able to leave if you want to." ”

Gongsun Gong said: "Then big brother, where are we going?" ”

Gongsun Kang pondered for a while and said, "In order to win over the rest of the people in Fuyu, my father used to be the wife of the sect's daughter. It's a relative, so let's go to Fuyu. ”

Gongsun Gong struck with both palms and said hatefully: "Big brother, the Buyeo people are much stronger than the Goguryeo people, and when the time comes, we will talk about moving the Buyeo people to deal with the Qingzhou army." Sooner or later, I will take revenge on my father! ”

Gongsun Kang glanced at his younger brother, sighed in his heart, and said secretly, with the power of Liaodong, my father is not Liu Bei's opponent, just Goguryeo, Fuyu, how can I be the enemy of the Central Plains? It's just that since his father is difficult to come, and his younger brother is depressed, if it doesn't make him have a little hope in his heart, why should he run around, like a lost dog? Wouldn't it be good to find a place to stay incognito for the rest of your life?

Buyeo, north of Xuansu, south of Goguryeo, east of Lulou, west of Xianbei. Most of the land in this country is plains, suitable for planting grains, producing famous horses, red jade, mink skin, pearls, and pearls as big as sour dates. The Buyeo people also fought with the Han Dynasty, but they were beaten very badly twice, once in Lelang and once in Xuanxuan, and then they surrendered and often sent people to Beijing to send tribute. The Buyeo people are more docile than the Goguryeo people, and they are also more knowledgeable about current affairs. Before Gongsun Du won Liaodong, because the situation in Liaodong was complicated, he vigorously wooed Fuyu, who was close to the Han Dynasty, and married a daughter of the sect. Buyeo also gave Gongsun Du a return, and united Gongsun Du to fight Xianbei or Goguryeo, all of which contributed their own strength.

However, when the Qingzhou army fought Liaodong, King Fuyu stood far away very wisely. The strength of the Central Plains Dynasty, even if he hadn't seen it in person, he had heard the tributary envoys talk about it. Therefore, the internal disputes of the Han people, I still don't participate in it. Qingzhou won Liaodong, and the Buyeo tribes exchanged markets as before, and the Buyeo people gradually put their hearts in their stomachs. I didn't care too much about Liaodong's change of owner. After all, life still has to go on. The Buyeong people didn't know that because of the Gongsun Kang and Gongsun Gong brothers, their peaceful days were coming to an end.

The king of Goguryeo was busy with the dispatch of troops here, and finally remembered the Gongsun brothers, thinking that Gongsun Du was a heroic hero in Liaodong, and I heard that Gongsun Kang was also talented and civilian, he was not only a Han Chinese, but also a treasure of the situation of the Qingzhou army. Since he is so familiar with the situation of the Han army, it is better to let him not lead an army, serve my Goguryeo, and go into battle to kill the enemy. So he sent someone to pass on Gongsun Kang.

As a result, it didn't take long for the waiter to report in a panic: "The king, Gongsun Kang and Gongsun Gong are missing. ”

The king of Goguryeo was furious and slapped the case and said, "Isn't it staring at people, how can they be missing?" ”

The waiter trembled and said: "The king ordered the transfer of troops, and the king is short of manpower, yes, yes, yes......"

The king of Goguryeo scolded in his heart, and if he was short of manpower, he was missing these few stalkers? He knew that there must be something greasy in it, but he didn't bother to ask, now it is the right thing to deal with Qingzhou wholeheartedly, and it is not too late to settle accounts when the Han army is repulsed.

Liu Bei was in Qingzhou, and after reading the report from Liaodong, he was happy and sad. The good news is that after the discovery of large iron mines in the northeast of Xiangping and in the upper reaches of Daliang River, there are also iron mines near the two Goguryeo cities that have just been captured. This is a strategic material. The sad thing is that the environment near these iron mines is not very good. The roads are dilapidated, sparsely populated, and supplies are difficult. After thinking about it, Liu Bei called Xun Yu, Lu Min and a few others. After roughly asking about the situation of the Qingzhou Treasury, Liu Bei said: "The situation in Liaodong is very good, but iron ore mining is not easy. I want to build another city in the upper reaches of Xiangping City, on the banks of the Daliang River, and move the people to live there. In order to do the rotation of the three cities of Xiangping, Huigou and Susheng. As for the land acquired by Goguryeo, the roads also need to be leveled and cannot be delayed any longer. What do you think? ”

Xun Yu thought for a while and said, "Lord, Qingzhou is currently at peace with the princes, and you can take this opportunity to vigorously manage Liaodong." Qingzhou is narrow, and it is difficult to enrich the people. If you can collect all the land of Goguryeo and support the people with a relaxed government, within a few years, Liaodong will also have the prosperity of the Central Plains. It's just that Qingzhou and Liaodong are separated by the sea, and it is difficult to travel back and forth, and the people are afraid that the soldiers are afraid and do not want to go. Among the gains and losses, please also ask the lord to take care of them. ”

Lu Min thought to himself, what else is there to think about, it must be to vigorously develop Liaodong. With such a large piece of land in Goguryeo, Liaodong has the benefits of salt and iron. The future is bright and prosperous.

Basically, that's it. Liu Bei took the map of Liaodong again, looked at it carefully, drew a circle on a flat land east of the Daliang Water Iron Mine, and said, "Just build a city here." "This circle is the steel city of later generations, Xishi.

To Gong Cao, the people of Gong Cao came to ask again, saying what is the name of the new city. Liu Bei thought for a while and said: "Ma Zishui has a city named Xi'anping, and this city is called East Anping." I hope that the territory of Liaodong will be peaceful, and I also hope that the tribes in the east will be honest and don't cause trouble. ”

Well, Liu Bei, a household that is difficult to name, blindly took such a name, and then he became interested, pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "The two cities of Goguryeo, Weigou City was renamed Andong City, and Susheng Bone City was renamed Pinggao City. The name of the Goguryeo people is too ugly, look at what these are, change! ”

The officials of Gongcao came out at the order. I guess I'm also complaining in my heart that the name of my lord is not very clever.

Xi'an Ping is the Dan and East of later generations. Mazi Water is the Yalu River of later generations. Zhang Fei led the headquarters in Xi'anping, and almost touched the situation of other small water cattles in Goguryeo. So he led the army up the river along the river. The soldiers are everywhere, and more than ten villages have been broken in a row. The Lord of the Little Water Tribes sent an envoy to see Zhang Fei, and said with a respectful expression: "Honorable Han Dynasty general, my tribe lives here for generations, and has always had no grudge against the Han Dynasty, this time I don't know what caused the anger of the Celestial Empire army." Please also ask the general for advice, so that my lord can make up for his mistakes. ”

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Have no grudges with me?" Then why did you make bows and arrows for the Goguryeo people? With the Goguryeo people plundering me towards Lelang, why is this? Go back and tell your lord, if you want to save your life, you can descend quickly, otherwise, you will meet in front of the two armies. ”

The messenger grimaced, but he didn't know what to say. His own department is a Goguryeo minister, is it possible that the king of Goguryeo let his tribe make a bow, do we dare to refuse? As for following Goguryeo's raids, if you want to say that you were forced to do it by Goguryeo, you can't even deceive yourself. I thought these were trifles, but who knows, alas, how is this good?

So the messenger went back and saw the tribesmen, and said this. The tribesmen were furious, "This is all a sin of desire!" What my ministry produces is a good bow, and we don't need to trade with this, how can we live? Kou Raiding Le Lang? Can you blame me for this, if I don't follow, we will be the first to be plundered! Wow, yes, yes, it seems that the Han people don't have a good thing, they all hit the door, and they still want me to surrender without a fight. It's just a fantasy. ”

So the whole army came to fight Zhang Fei, that day, the two sides lined up the troops, and the little water lord invited the battle in front of the battle. Zhang Fei was about to fight, and Ye Jiao, the deputy general next to him, said: "General, since returning to the lord, he has not gained an inch of merit, and now he wants to reject the little water for the general first, and cut this fang, and hope that the general will be fulfilled." ”

Zhang Fei still has a good impression of Ye Jiao, although the force value is not high, but he can take care of everything in the camp in an orderly manner, and he can be regarded as a general. So he said: "In this way, I will ask General Ye to go through this for a certain person." ”
