Even Yuan Yun didn't expect that the reinforcements who blocked Liu Bei this time could catch a big fish, that is, the old enemy Mi Fang, this very shady Liu Bei's follower was hiding in the hollow of a big tree when he was searched out by the soldiers of the Gunpowder Army, and he was hit by the projectiles of the musket in two places.

Seeing Mi Fang being escorted in the camp tent, Yuan Yun first smiled, and his face was frosty in an instant, and then ordered him to be imprisoned left and right.

Liu Bei sent 40,000 Jingzhou soldiers to rescue Xinye, but on the way to Xinye, he was ambushed by the gunpowder army between the mountains and forests.

Originally, in this kind of snow-covered mountains and forests, it was difficult to use fire to attack, but the existence of gasoline made these troubles disappear, even Mi Fang himself did not expect that the other party could actually set fire in a snowy climate, until the fire started, he did not react, and when he ordered to prepare to withdraw, he was fired by muskets and artillery.

Looking at the chaotic battlefield, Mi Fang clearly realized that this was no longer a skill, so he chose to escape alone, and at this time, as the large army broke out, he would only be chased and beaten by the enemy.

But even if Mi Fang chose to escape alone very smartly, he was very unfortunate to be caught by Zhao Si, and when he was kicked out of the tree hole, he could only beg for mercy one by one, and strongly asked to see Yuan Yun.

It's just that after seeing Yuan Yun, Mi Fang still miscalculated, originally thought that as long as Liu Bei's secret was exchanged, he would exchange his life for a life, but Yuan Yun just glanced at him, and even avoided interrogation, and directly put him in a prison car.

The Gunpowder Army achieved great results in this expedition, not only completely erasing Xinye, but also blocking Liu Bei's 40,000 horses, according to Pang Tong's statistics, less than 30,000 of these 40,000 people can escape back, and the so-called Liu Bei Alliance will inevitably be hit hard because of this battle.

Triumph is always very happy, the gunpowder army soldiers only lost more than 600 people this time, most of them were killed in the street battle in Xinye, from this point can also be seen Zhang Fei's toughness, under the pressure of the gunpowder gun, he can still command his subordinates to let the gunpowder army suffer a painful blow when they first entered the city.

And the loss of 600 people, in this era, it is a very good victory, Cao Ang was also a little surprised after hearing about it, originally thought that Yuan Yun would go out this time, let alone lose 3,000 people, but when the war report came to his eyes, he laughed heartily, and thus affirmed the importance of muskets in his heart.

After Cao Ang had this realization, the production of muskets in Luoyang doubled again, and the number of workshops specializing in making muskets expanded to ten, and they continued to manufacture them day and night, so that a large number of muskets began to be armed.

Yuan Yun returned all the way, and when he passed through Wancheng again, Cao Hong personally greeted the edge of the Great Wall, and even brought a large number of supplies for the labor army, and 30,000 horses and horses had a triumphal banquet on the edge of the Great Wall.

Originally, Pang Tong was not very in favor of this kind of carnival before the gunpowder army returned to Luoyang, but Yuan Yun, as he himself said, really did not have the consciousness of unifying the army, so the banquet was as usual, and everyone in the gunpowder army held Yuan Yun to the sky.

"Lord, you have achieved great military achievements this time, so celebrate before returning to Luoyang, once you are impeached, I am afraid that your military merits will not be guaranteed." After Pang Tong finished consoling, his face was full of regret.

Yuan Yun tilted his head and thought for a moment, and asked in an instant, "Your combat exploits will not be affected, right?" ”

Pang Tong smiled bitterly and said, "You are the main general, and the order is also given by you, so naturally it will not affect the brothers." ”

"Good!" Yuan Yun smiled, then handed Pang Tong a wine jug, and then continued: "Shiyuan is relaxed, I have no interest in military exploits, if someone impeaches, even if it is canceled, now that I have a marquis, it is estimated that the imperial court will not be able to do anything to me, so don't worry." ”

Pang Tong nodded, and now he finally understood what Zhuge Liang said, that is, Yuan Yun didn't care about fame and fortune at all, and what he did seemed to be just wanting to end the war this morning, and then return the world to peace, which is indeed very great, and it is not okay to be disrespectful.

Thinking of this, Pang Tong was also relieved, and he was drinking the wine in the wine jug, and it squirted out in an instant, because he saw Cao Hong walking into the Chinese army's tent with several bewitching women, and at first glance, it was specially prepared for Yuan Yun.

Seeing this, Pang Tong hurriedly grabbed Yuan Yun's sleeve and said: "Lord, it's okay to say that the banquet is held, if you come to the lucky woman again during the march, I'm afraid this will not be a matter of impeachment, it is estimated that even the reputation will stink, this is absolutely unacceptable, what is General Cao Hong's mind at the moment?" ”

Yuan Yun shrugged his shoulders, then glanced at Cao Hong, who was walking in the distance, and smiled bitterly in his heart, Cao Cao likes to be in the process of the war, by the way, the sister and sister-in-law of the defeated party or something, it is estimated that Cao Hong served Cao Cao like this back then, and now he looks down on him Yuan Yun very much, and he has dealt with Cao Cao on himself.

Soon Cao Hong finally walked to Yuan Yun's side, and then shouted in a low voice to the left and right: "The idle people near the big tent of the Chinese army have been driven away, so as not to disturb Yuan Hou's purity." ”

Yuan Yun waited for Cao Hong to finish instructing his subordinates, and then he said angrily: "The idle people also include these singers, if General Cao Hong wants to drink, it is better to sit down and drink well, and don't get other things into my camp." ”

Cao Hong was stunned, and turned his head to look at the four singers who followed him, this was the top product he specially selected from Wancheng, and it was also the four most powerful singers in his Qinglou business, but Yuan Yun didn't even have the mood to take a look, so he drove people away, which really disappointed him.

After ordering four singers to wait at the door of the tent, Cao Hong walked in alone, and said with a smile when he entered the door: "If Yuan Hou is worried about someone in the court impeaching, then there is no need, and I Cao Hong can pat my chest to guarantee that no one will chew his tongue." ”

Yuan Yun was stunned, and just wanted to ask how the other party could be so sure, now there are definitely not a few people in the DPRK who want to impeach him Yuan Yun, this kind of opportunity will definitely not be missed, but the words came to his mouth, and he immediately stopped it, because he had already figured it out, if he impeached him Yuan Yun in this regard, then the first thing to punish would be Cao Cao, because this precedent was his beginning, so who would dare to jump out and say something in this regard?

Cao Hong saw that Yuan Yun's face was sluggish, and immediately hit the snake with the stick, clapped his hands, and the four singers immediately rushed in, and before Yuan Yun could react, the four singers had already set up their musical instruments, and then began to play melodiously, and the repertoire was still his "Chivalrous Journey" stolen by Yuan Yun.

Pang Tong's brows had been completely knotted, but Cao Hong could guarantee that this matter would not be impeached, and he believed it a little, but he couldn't figure it out, so he just frowned at the moment and wanted to ask something.

Yuan Yun saw that the singer had already sat down, and now if he drove people away, he would not be a gentleman enough, and he had no choice but to accept it.

Cao Hong sat down slightly, and immediately said with a smile: "Yuan Hou, there are batches of peasant troops to be transported to Wancheng in the spring, in order to show the perennial cooperation between our two cities, so this time I am willing to pay an extra thirty percent of the grain, which can be regarded as a lottery." ”

Yuan Yun squinted at Cao Hong, and sighed secretly, the other party is really a powerful businessman, and the smell of corruption can seep out of his pores, but he said before that he would cut off the exchanges between Luoyang and Wancheng, which was just an angry word, and now the two cities are mutually beneficial, but it is really impossible to break it off with a huge business.

After thinking about it, Yuan Yun deliberately asked Cao Hong: "Our two cities are a huge deal, even if it is broken, it is not so easy, General Cao Hong is just because of Ben Hou's angry words, why worry so much?" ”

Cao Hong hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Yuan Hou, what you said is easy, but now your identity has long been different, before you made those old officials in the DPRK and the DPRK in the middle of the country can not survive and die, and you have achieved great military achievements in the crusade against Karasuma, now whether it is the court or the army, who dares to take your words as a joke, so you can scare me a lot this time, it turned out to be a joke, haha, the joke is the best." ”

Seeing that Cao Hong didn't want to pat himself at all when he spoke, Yuan Yun suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, outsiders had already seen him like this now, but he really couldn't figure out how his prestige was established, and it seemed to come faster.

Pang Tong also followed Cao Hong's words at this time: "Lord, your current reputation is not only on our side, I am afraid that the people in the world who don't know you no longer exist, the construction and development of Luoyang is known to everyone is the merit of the lord, and those businessmen who come to Luoyang to run business are the way for the spread of news in the world, so ......"

"So Yuan Hou, your name has long been spread far and wide, but you don't want to pay attention to it, this master is like you, what is the name of that word? That's right, low-key, low-key, just low-key, hehe. "Cao Hong doesn't want Pang Tong, as long as he is profitable, let him pat Yuan Yun, a young man's ass, without any pressure at all.

Yuan Yun was so praised by Cao Hong, and an inexplicable sense of vanity really rose in his heart, and he began to think about whether those who wrote history books would also record his name, which would be fresh, if he saw his name in the future modern society, he would really have a very cross-cutting sense of disobedience.

Just when Yuan Yun was feeling good about himself, he suddenly heard someone outside the camp shouting: "The military situation is urgent, and those who block it will be killed immediately!" ”

Yuan Yun was startled, and immediately turned his eyes away from the camp tent, only to see a knight riding a horse rushing to the door of the camp tent, then turned over and dismounted, and then gasped and said: "Yuan Hou, the people of Hanzhong are in turmoil, please rescue quickly." ”
