Chapter VII The Cost

Watching the door slowly close, Yan Liang spat disdainfully: "These cowards! I am afraid of the barbarians, and I am afraid that I am afraid to the bones, and with the 40,000 iron horsemen of our Liaodong Army here, I don't dare to open the door. ”

"Zishan, do you think the barbarians are really easy to deal with?" Yan Rou slowly shook his head and said: "If it weren't for the trapping camp created by the lord, and its military soul happened to be a blue wolf, Wuhuan would not surrender easily even if he died or fled, and now he has taken refuge in the two tribes under Liu Yu, in fact, he is just recuperating through his reputation, once the lord and other barbarians become weaker, they will immediately rebel again, and pounce on the lord - Liu Yu, thinking that they have mastered the situation, but they are just raising tigers for trouble!" ”

"Around Liaodong, there are four barbarian tribes, two strong and two weak. The strong Xianbei and Ding Ling, the weak Fuyu and Goguryeo! Xu Rong slowly recounted what he understood one by one: "Xianbei is in the northwest, Ding Ling is in the northeast, Fuyu is in the east, and Goguryeo is in the south." ”

"Among them, Xianbei is the strongest, but it is the farthest away from us, if you want a large army to rush over, you must first defeat Ding Ling." Xu Rong smiled faintly: "Ding Ling is a pure barbarian, if Xianbei is actually just a little taller than us and has a whiter complexion, then Ding Ling is full of yellow hair, more than one zhang tall, and adults can basically reach the divine power above the Qi Zhuang Realm, eating tigers and leopards raw, skin and swords are difficult to hurt, they are not afraid of death, they don't understand language, and they will carry out crazy attacks on any creature that tries to pass through their territory, even if Xianbei is strong, they are not willing to fight with Ding Ling barbarians without benefits, it is really because the losses will be heavy." , and the benefits are minimal! ”

"Under normal circumstances, there is no hatred between our Han and Ding Ling, and even because of their existence, they have faintly restrained some of Xianbei's troops." Xu Rong ate a piece of barbecue and continued to explain: "The Fuyu people are very similar to the Goguryeo people and us Han people, and I once suspected that they were actually people who fled and fled to the Central Plains in the ancient Xia and Shang periods. Because their writing is very similar to the inscription we have engraved on the bell. ”

"Their combat effectiveness is basically the same as that of our county soldiers, but Liaodong is bitterly cold and has no gains, so our Han Dynasty has never sent troops to conquer these two small countries."

"Lord, when you arrive in Liaodong, you should be prepared to use this as a base, so you must beware of the severe cold here, at night, dripping water into ice is not empty talk! This fire must be kept up all night, and men must sleep in groups of ten in leather tents, or our warriors will soon freeze to death in this wilderness! Xu Rong looked at the castle not far away: "Perhaps, then Gongsun Zhao has this idea!" ”

"Don't worry, lord!" Guo Jia saw Yan Zhanshu's brows furrowed, and said with a smile: "At this time, it is March, the earth is springing, I watch the sky at night, and I expect that this spring will come early, and within three days, the temperature will rise significantly!" After speaking, Guo Jia's face turned pale, he lowered his head and coughed, hurriedly took out a bottle of medicinal wine, raised his head and took a big sip before he stopped coughing, and his pale face also showed a touch of red.

"Feng Xiao-" Xi Zhicai's eyes showed a look of worry: "Your talent can't be so light, this time it's a long time!" ”

"Fengxiao, if you tell you the truth, does it cost you your life every time you use your talent?!" Yan Zhanshu felt that it was wrong, he had never heard of Guo Jia watching the sky at night, Guo Jia had heard of it when he died early, is it really as Xi Zhicai said, Guo Jia is extremely talented, but after using it, he will lose his life?

"Ahem, lord, it's not that serious! No, my pot of medicinal wine is specially used to make up for the loss of vitality. Guo Jia smiled indifferently and didn't care.

"The gift of Fengxiao is to assert that no matter how incredible the situation is, as long as Fengxiao says it, then it will definitely become a fact, and the difference is how much life will be lost." Xi Zhicai added a little gloomily on the side: "Last time, before the lord faced the White Horse Yicong, Feng Xiao had asserted that there would be problems with the White Horse Yicong's war horse, and that time, Feng Xiao coughed for a whole day. ”

"I said, why did those drugs come on so quickly?!" Han Dang suddenly realized.

"It seems that under the extremely unfavorable situation at that time, Zhicai and Fengxiao were already optimistic about the lord!" Yan Rou quietly reversed the topic: "It's really a hero with a discerning eye!" ”

"The lord was born in a side branch of a family, and he was forced to embark on the road of rebellion, and I and Zhicai both feel the same way." Guo Jia's starry eyes shone with unwillingness: "Because of the oppression of the family, no matter how talented we are, we can't get everything we deserve!" ”

"I chose the lord because the experience of the lord is extremely similar to mine! And there is no king in my heart, and I will not be bothered by some Confucian rules and regulations! ”

"Wujun, hahaha-" Yan Zhanshu laughed: "It's not that to talk about, but it's not so awe-inspiring!" He raised his glass and said: "The long night is long, the cold wind is cold, everyone has a sip of wine to relieve fatigue." ”

"Dry-" Everyone raised their glasses, although the lord did not say anything clearly, but in this era, there are really few people who can not fear the imperial power.

Dare to say, "Princes and generals, would you rather have a kind?" "The person who speaks, since ancient times, there is only Chen Sheng! It's a little lonely.

Until Huanglongtan, Yan Zhanshu shouted the same words in front of tens of thousands of Han soldiers and Yellow Turban soldiers! This is the reflection of Chen Sheng.

In this era, even the eloquent Cao Cao has never usurped the Han in his life, and he married his three daughters to Liu Xie, the purpose is just to save his life!

Liu Bei is called the emperor, and that is also because Cao Pi usurped the Han in front, otherwise the reputation he has saved in his life will stink!

Not to mention Sun Quan, the master of Shoucheng, known as "Sun 100,000", only achieved the miraculous record of Zhang Liao's 800 heroes Wei Zhen Xiaoyaojin - since then he has lost all his confidence, and can only hide in Jiangdong as a dog to guard the household!

Zhang Jiao is a rebellion, but he is also dead, he does not respect the imperial power, and the only person who can live a prosperous life is the lord in front of him, even if it is Zhao Yun at this time, he admires his lord very much, he can not be able to do it, so he is very human, thinking of the comments used by his master when he commented on the overlord, Gaozu, and the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty in addition to his martial arts, and looked at Yan Zhanshu's eyes were a little complicated, will the lord really be a character who changes the world in the future?

From the beginning of the second day, Yan Zhanshu ordered that the whole army be rotated, half of the men and horses were drilled, and the other half began to build the city by the Heishui River in this Xiangping Castle.

It is said that it was a city building, but at the beginning, it was only a place for 40,000 soldiers and horses to camp at night, a horse house, a grain and grass storehouse, and a blacksmith shop. Seeing that Yan Zhanshu really didn't plan to enter Xiangping, Gongsun Zhao was relieved and hurriedly transferred two thousand people from the castle, as well as various tools, to help build it together.

Three days later, sure enough, the sky became mild, and the wind blowing along the Heishui River was also warm, intoxicating, bringing the breath of spring. The enthusiasm of everyone to work is even more vigorous, and the matter of watching the sky at night and cutting off the iron mouth of their own military division has already spread throughout the whole army, if there is morale, at least one point will be improved!

On this hot construction site, Yan Zhanshu took Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai to smash the wall base bare-chested, and the sound of "bang bang" was endless, Yan Zhanshu glanced at his soldiers with admiration, proudly puffed out his biceps, and said to Guo Jia with a smile: "Fengxiao, Zhicai, it's not that I said you, your body is too weak, you should exercise more like me!" ”

Wiping a handful of sweat, Xi Zhicai smiled bitterly: "Lord, you can lead the army with Wu Qi's art of war, and naturally no one has any complaints." But Feng Xiao and I were not born so weak. ”

"Huh?" Yan Zhanshu keenly felt that there was something wrong here, but when he saw that Xi Zhicai sighed silently, he turned to Guo Jia and raised his eyebrows, meaning you say!

"Zhicai, as a civilian, doesn't even have a word, and it will definitely not be his turn to be filial piety! If you want to become a master, you must have a skill that others can't do - you have to practice the way of refining the gods passed down by the family, and since then, your body has deteriorated, although you have reached the third level, but every time you use the spell, you are overdrawing the vitality of your body. ”

Guo Jia said lightly: "I am the same, although I was born in a side branch of a family, but I am not tolerated by my sister-in-law Guo Tu, but his talent is not bad, and the way of refining gods has reached the peak of the third layer, how can I only save my life by becoming stronger!" ”
