In the autumn of the twelfth year of Qiande, it has been more than a whole year since the army of Xubu Chiyi commanded the army to fight for Hanzhong in the south, and it was indeed a protracted fierce battle, and the two sides fought several bloody battles in the area of Hanshui and Shuishui, and the small battles were even more frequent and once. In this battle, both Xia and Shu invested greatly.

In a year's time, the people who supported the 100,000 army and requisitioned them overtime, even if the soldiers were lost, the ordnance and food consumed by the Great Xia court were massive, and Liu Yuan had been farming for many years and had not encountered a disaster year, so he could support it. Even so, the government has consumed most of its capital. Fortunately, it is the harvest season again, there is a bumper harvest in Guanzhong, and there is grain cloth in the warehouse, without saying much, continue to fight, continue to consume with Shu Han.

Compared with Hu Xia, Shu Han's life is even more difficult. The number of troops is no less than that of the Xia army, and the pressure on the delivery of logistics supplies is indeed several times that of Liu Xia. Although Liu Xia is blocked by the Qinling Mountains, it is still more convenient than the Shu Road, which is difficult to pass.

The Shu army in Hanzhong, except for some grain captured in Hanzhong as military supplies in the early stage, other supplies needed to be transported from Shuzhong thousands of miles across the difficult Shu Road. The consumption of the war was greater than the Shu Han monarchs and ministers expected, and Hu Xia's determination shocked him, they never thought that Liu Yuan would work so hard for the sake of "merely" Hanzhong.

There is a truce, unless you take the initiative to withdraw from Hanzhong. But they have all fought to this point, paying such a big price, and there are many casualties among the soldiers, and no one is willing to give up.

Up to now, the main forces of the two sides are still fighting fiercely around the line from Dingjun Mountain, Tiandang Mountain to Yangping Pass, entangled and entangled, and the state has lasted for half a year. In a short period of time, Hanzhong can't get a result.

In the direction of Youzhou, after being entangled for more than half a year, seeing that it was impossible to expand the results of the battle, Liu Qi withdrew, but the power of Zhao was completely compressed to within Juyong Pass. Even if he had the ability to fight on both sides, Hu Xia did not want to expand the war in the east when the fierce battle in Hanzhong was raging.

Xia Jun didn't give any effort, and it was Yan Jun who suffered, who was educated by Zhang He a few years ago, and a few years later, the plot was staged again. In Liaoxi, Gongsun Kang was defeated by Zhang He again, if it weren't for Lu Bu's side to lead the army to help involve the Zhao army, King Yan was afraid that he would be transposed.

The westward advance was frustrated, and when he returned to Xiangping, the embarrassed Gongsun Kang directly swore in public that Zhang He would not die, and he would never mention the westward expedition in his life. Then he devoted himself to the cause of eliminating the impact of the sequelae of defeat, and his eyes completely turned to Sanhan in the south, Xia Zhao couldn't afford to provoke him, and bullied the "stick" without the slightest pressure.

In Jingzhou, between Wei, Chu and Wu, the war stopped, and the same entanglement has been entangled to this day, and Cao Cao, the king of Wei, has twice taken the time to return to Suiyang. Sun Quan, the king of Wu, also chose a personal expedition, but was defeated by Guan Yu at Xiakou. Zhou Yu commanded the army from Jiaozhou to attack Xiangzhou, but was blocked by Xu Shu and Pang Tong's army.

Probably inhaled too much miasma in Jiaozhou, and Zhou Yu had a physical problem. And Liu Bei personally commanded the army to resist Cao Wei in Xiangyang, and met the enemy on three sides, Chu Han still blocked it with difficulty, and Jing Xiang under his command burst out with extremely strong vitality.

In Chang'an in September, the upper garden is beginning to bloom chrysanthemums, and Fanglin is offering frost pears.

In the dark room of the Wudu Palace, Liu Heng, the king of Wudu, who was almost forgotten by the people of Chang'an, sat on his feet with King Wei. Liu Yuan had already lifted the ban on Liu Heng, but he seemed to have been hit hard, lived in the palace for a long time, and only occasionally took his wife and children out of Chang'an for hunting outings.

The topic of conversation between the uncle and nephew was very heavy, and the atmosphere in the dark room was quite serious.

"Are you going to do it?" The two drank thin wine lightly, which lasted for a long time, and Liu Qiu finally broke the silence.

"There are 100,000 soldiers in Hanzhong, and the three auxiliaries of Chang'an are empty!" Liu Heng took a sip of wine and answered the question.

"Determined?" Liu Qiu asked again in a deep voice.

"Father is sick!" Liu Heng put down the wine jue, opened his eyes, and met Liu Qiu's gaze with a firm look.

"What are you going to do?" After staring at each other for a long time, Liu Qiu waved his robe and asked in a low voice.

"Gather the elite soldiers, pass through the White Horse Gate from Sima Gate, directly hit Weiyang, coerce the father, ask for the edict, and then control Chang'an!" Liu Heng finally didn't hide it at all.

When Liu Qiu heard this, he felt that Liu Heng's plan was too hasty, and he didn't mutiny. He immediately asked: "Where did the soldiers come from, the Su Guards guarding the palace are not so easy to deal with." Moreover, the palace gate has always been heavily guarded, how to enter? ”

"The Su guards are patrolling all the palaces, and the target of the lonely is only the Xuan room, just the father! There are 400 elite soldiers in the palace, all of whom are warriors on the battlefield who have followed the lonely for many years! Liu Heng replied.

Liu Qiu still looked at Liu Heng.

"A thousand people of the city guard can be used! Liu Gui can mobilize an old beggar army to enter the city! Seeing this, Liu Heng looked at Liu Qiu again and added, "How many people can come out of the emperor's uncle?" ”

"Three hundred dead soldiers in the palace! There is an old unit in the Praetorian Guard, but it can't move! Liu Qiu still shook his head: "Not enough!" ”

"That's enough!" Liu Heng immediately said: "Our goal is to control our father, only by taking the Xuan Room, we can do it!" ”

"How do I enter the palace?"

"The North Sima Gate can be defrauded, and the White Horse Gate guards are lonely!" Liu Heng obviously had a plan.

"The guards and the Praetorian Guards, have you taken it into consideration? What about the rest of the city guards? Also, there are a thousand princes in the East Palace! Liu Qiu Ning said.

"The guards are in Shanglin Yuan, the Praetorian Guards are in the east of the city, there is no edict to the tiger talisman, and those who move lightly die. The city guards are the same, what we want is fast, as long as we attack Weiyang and control our father before others react! Liu Heng's expression was calm, he thought about it, and said: "The prince's guard rate is a problem, other armies don't dare to move lightly, Liu Rui, if you hear about the Weiyang incident, you will definitely move troops!" You and I need to send someone to contain the East Palace! ”

"Who are you going to use?"

"If the prince is not dead, this is the man! It's a pity that he was killed by Ma Chaona back then! Liu Heng couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The palace is a good soldier, and he has been following Gu for many years, so he can use it!" ”

raised his eyes and looked at Liu Heng for a long time, and after talking about such important matters for so long, Liu Heng's expression did not change. Ten years ago, the "big nephew" who still needed him to mention something has now grown to the point where he can't even see through it.

"It's still too risky!" Liu Qiu let out a long breath.

"What we did was originally a risky thing, but I don't know if Uncle Huang dares to fight?" Liu Heng is still so calm.

Hearing this, Liu Qiu immediately sneered: "I have been galloping on the battlefield for nearly 20 years, and the scars all over my body are all from my youth, fighting for my life!" Lonely, what are you afraid of, at most you will fail and die! ”

"Uncle Huang's demeanor makes the lonely heart broken!" Liu Heng finally smiled a little.

Raise a glass to invite: "Uncle Huang, please!" ”

"Please!" Liu Qiu should be kind.

"When are you going to do it?"

"The day after tomorrow!"

"In such a hurry?"

"Without further ado!"
