Fa Zheng fought a decisive battle with the Yizhou army in Langzhong.

Cao Shuo was also accompanied by Pang Tong, Zhao Yun and Chen Zhi to Hanzhong.

Lu Xun and a group of officials waited at the city gate early.

Seeing Cao Shuo, everyone stepped forward.

"The lord has worked hard from afar." Lu Xun said: "I heard that the lord is coming, and I have asked people to pack up the official mansion. ”

"There's no need to be so grand." Cao Shuo said: "I came here just to get closer news of Fa Xiaozhi's presence in Yizhou. ”

He then asked, "How is he now?" ”

"Sending back news from Hanzhong, he has passed Micang Mountain, and now Langzhong is surrounded." Lu Xun replied: "Liu Xuande is in Langzhong, if there is no accident in this battle, he should be able to capture him alive." ”

"Let people tell Fa Zheng that Liu Xuande is of no use to me, and I don't want to see him crying." Cao Shuo said: "I only need a human head, and a dead Liu Xuande is more reassuring than a living one." ”

"I'll arrange for someone to come over." Lu Xun replied.

"You deliberately mentioned Mt. Rice Cang, is it difficult to get through that big mountain?" Cao Shuo asked Lu Xun.

"Micang Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, there are many wolves, insects, tigers and leopards in the mountains, and the mountains and forests are difficult to walk, so it is really difficult to get through." Lu Xun replied.

"Since it's hard to get through, how can the messengers on both sides communicate with each other?" Cao Shuo asked again.

"The messenger is not going to Mt. Yonekura." Lu Xun replied: "There is actually a small road from Hanzhong to Yizhou, but the army can't pass through, and it's okay for three or five people to go back and forth from there." ”

"How many people do you send messengers?" Accompanied by Lu Xun into the city, Cao Shuo was most concerned about the exchange of news between Yizhou and Hanzhong.

"There are often wild beasts in the mountains, and it is definitely not possible to walk alone." Lu Xun said: "I usually let three or five people set off together, they have a care for each other, and it is more secure." ”

Entering Hanzhong City, Cao Shuo saw many people standing on both sides of the street.

When the people saw him enter the city, they cheered one by one: "King Wei is mighty!" “

Raising his arm, Cao Shuo also greeted the people.

"Before I came to Hanzhong, I thought there would be a lot of depression here." While greeting the people, Cao Shuo said to Lu Xun: "I didn't expect that there are so many people, it can be seen that Bo Yan is doing a lot of things here." ”

"The lord handed over Hanzhong to me, of course I can't come nonsense." Lu Xun replied: "Although Hanzhong has gone through a catastrophe, it has not broken its muscles and bones, and it is not difficult to restore order. ”

"With your ability, it's a pity to only be an official the size of a county guard in Hanzhong." Cao Shuo said: "When I return to Luoyang, you can go back with you." ”

"Did the lord ask people to rebuild Chang'an?" Lu Xun responded first, and then asked Cao Shuo.

"Why rebuild Chang'an?" Cao Shuo asked rhetorically: "Just because I want to move the capital to Chang'an, I have to rebuild it?" ”

"Chang'an has also suffered from military disasters, although the city and outside the city are not as depressed as Luoyang, at least it should be rebuilt, so that the imperial city can be magnificent." Lu Xun said: "The Han family has died, Yizhou and Jiaozhou are taken again, and the whole world will be unified by the lord." The imperial city of Chang'an, of course, has to have the appearance of an imperial city. ”

"I have also discussed with everyone, and they all feel that it is the safest to set the capital of Chang'an." Cao Shuo said: "Wait for me to break through Yizhou and Jiaozhou, and take Chang'an as the imperial capital Shouchun as the accompanying capital." We still have to step up our efforts to prepare for a new journey. ”

"Did the lord mean the northern aliens?" Lu Xun asked.

"Can the South just let them do whatever it takes?" Cao Shuo said with a smile: "There are Hu people in the north, and there are barbarians in the south. No matter which side is strong, it will covet the Central Plains and want to take away our homeland from us. We don't want to be enslaved, we have only one way. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Shuo smiled at him.

"Like the Han Wu back then, subduing them and beating them down?" Lu Xun asked tentatively.

"No alien race can be subdued and feared." Cao Shuo said: "Even if they are scared for a while, as long as we are weaker in the future, they will take advantage of the situation to rise and take our lives while we are sick!" ”

"I probably understand what the lord means." Lu Xun nodded: "It seems that the world is unified, and we still can't stop......"

"I am the emperor on horseback, and you are all courtiers on horseback." Cao Shuo said: "After conquering the world, if you suddenly become idle, don't you think that life is too boring?" When people are stable, there will always be some restless thoughts. Don't say it's you, even if it's me, I've been calm for too long, and I'll think about finding a chance to go out and fight! The alien race that has been messing with us all the year round will of course be the best target for practice. ”

"The lord has become a martial artist to dominate the world, and the alien race who dares to be the enemy of the lord will not have a good time in the future." Lu Xun shook his head and said, "I'm not worried about whether I can defeat the alien race in the future, but I'm a little worried about the alien race." ”

Cao Shuo laughed and patted him lightly on the shoulder: "It's a bit too early for Bo Yan to say this, you must know that among the aliens, not all straw bales are there." They are also some fierce generals. In the future, our army will crusade against foreign races, and there will be no less trouble. But don't despise them because they're all barbarians! ”

"I have written down the teachings of the Lord." Lu Xun responded.

When he came to the Hanzhong Mansion, Cao Shuo entered the gate and asked Lu Xun, who was following him: "Where are Guan Yunchang and Zhang Yide locked up by you?" ”

"Back to the lord, both of them were locked up in Hanzhong Prison." Lu Xun replied: "In the first few days, they would make some trouble for the guards in the prison every day. Now it has stopped a lot, and I can bear to eat and drink every day. ”

"Both of them are loyal and fierce generals, but they were fooled by Liu Xuande." Cao Shuo said: "When they were young, they were married in Taoyuan. It was precisely because of this move that Guan Yunchang and Zhang Yide followed Liu Xuande with all their hearts. Liu Xuande will not die, and they will definitely not serve others. ”

"That's why the lord ordered Liu Xuande to be dead and not alive?" Lu Xun asked.

"It is not just because of the two of them that they are dead and not alive." Cao Shuo said: "Liu Xuande is hypocritical, once he is given a way to live, he will secretly do something weird. With his hypocrisy, it is easy to deceive some people into being as desperate as Guan Yunchang and Zhang Yide are for him. How can I tolerate such a person destroying the country? ”

"That's what the lord said!" Lu Xun nodded: "Dare to ask the lord, do you want to meet the two of you first?" ”

"When Fa Xiaozhi kills Liu Xuande, it's not too late for me to see them again." Cao Shuo said: "If I go to see them now, they will definitely refuse to serve me." Do I have to argue with them? 2k reading network
