During the period when Liu He and Xue Rengui were talking, Fan Lihua's father and daughter had already come to the front of the two armies, and Fan Hong wanted to pay a salute to Xue Rengui, but Fan Lihua suddenly said: "Father, it seems that there is a big man here, we can't leave a bad impression of rudeness." ”

"Huh? Rika, what big shot are you talking about? Isn't General Xue already a big man? Fan Hong asked his daughter with a puzzled face.

I saw Fan Lihua say: "Didn't my father find out that a new army had appeared in front?" Although this army looks no different from ordinary armies, it is sharp and introverted, and their bodies are full of a very strong evil spirit, which is definitely coming out of the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, and at the core of this army, it is definitely a big man who is following him, this big man is actually wearing a yellow Luo umbrella cover, it seems that the Son of Heaven of the Great Han has arrived, so we should salute the Son of Heaven first. ”

"However, in case it is wrong......" Fan Hong said with some hesitation when he heard it.

"It won't be wrong, among the big Hans, there is really no one who dares to trespass like this, the person who comes must be the son of the Han Dynasty, and the daughter is responsible for something."

Fan Lihua looked at her face and made a promise to her father.

Although he was still worried in his heart, Fan Hong still listened to Fan Lihua's words, came to the front of the Han army, and respectfully worshipped: "The criminal minister Fan Hong brought the female pear flower to meet the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, the criminal minister is a Han Chinese, but he works for Tiele, it is really a sin, and I ask the Son of Heaven to condemn it!" ”

"This Fan Lihua's insight is really extraordinary, and he can even guess my identity." Liu He was very relieved to see Fan Hong.

He clearly knows that Fan Hong's attributes, force value 75, intelligence 42, internal affairs 28, charm 45, a character like this is just a second-rate general, it is impossible to guess his identity, in this case, who guessed his identity is naturally a matter at a glance.

Liu He nodded and said: "If it is according to what is said, your father and daughter helped to abuse the people, and my clan should be punished with capital punishment, but after all, you did not do any evil deeds at the beginning, and with the help of the identity of Tiele officials, you sheltered my Han people, plus broke Yang Fan's formation, killed Yang Fan, and rescued Marshal Xue, not only did not have any fault, but had merit, Fan Hong, I ordered you to be the captain of the city gate, the main responsibility is really Chang'an to guard the city gate, be responsible for the opening and closing of the city gate, check the passers-by, etc., I don't know if you are willing to go?" ”

As soon as Fan Hong heard this, he hurriedly spoke: "Being able to be spared a life by Your Majesty, the criminal minister is already satisfied, not to mention that Your Majesty has returned the official to the criminal minister, and the criminal minister is too late to be grateful, how can he not be willing?" ”

But I saw Fan Lihua step forward and said: "Your Majesty, my father is now old and unable to take on this heavy responsibility, and I hope that Your Majesty will take back his life and only give him an idle official position is a gift." ”

Then Fan Lihua whispered to her father: "The captain of the city gate is a fifth-grade military attaché, even if it is a grade higher than Ding Shan, my father has not made an inch, how dare he hold such an official position?" ”

Fan Hong was suddenly startled when he heard this, he originally thought that this city gate captain was just an ordinary captain, but he didn't expect to have such a high level, and he also knew how many catties and taels he had, so he hurriedly resigned.

However, Liu He smiled and said, "Since I have already spoken, how can I take it back?" Now that I have said it and you have agreed, this matter will naturally be approved, how can there be any reason to regret it? ”

Then Liu He looked at her again and said: "Lihua, you have made great contributions to the country, not only dedicated Hanjiang Pass to my Han, but also sheltered the people, and also killed Yang Fan and saved Xue Aiqing's family, how can I not reward such a great achievement?" I have decided to order Xue Li to be the generalissimo of the expedition to the west, and to conquer the Qiang Yao Chang tribe, the Turkic remnants, and the Tiele tribes, so I will order you to be the deputy marshal of the expedition to the west, the general of Fenwei, and assist him in the battle, right? ”

"Your Majesty is so gracious, Fan Lihua is grateful, and she is willing to smear your majesty's liver and brain, and she will not give up!" Hearing that Liu He insisted on appointing Fan Hong, and at the same time entrusted herself with important tasks, Fan Lihua finally understood that Liu He did this to show her an attitude, the Son of Heaven was so kind to him, what else could he say? Naturally, it is necessary to swear allegiance to the death.

"Do it well, Xue Rengui is already in his forties, how many more years can he do? In the future, the position of the generalissimo of the expedition to the west will be yours. Of course, Liu He didn't say this, but this was the truest thought in his heart.

Liu He focused so cultivating Fan Lihua, of course, because her ability was there, according to the scan of the system, Fan Lihua's attributes were like this: "Fan Lihua, commander-type talent, force 110, intelligence 102, internal affairs 74, charm 117, weapon is Jiufeng Chaoyang Knife, force value plus 8 points, desperate flying knife, force value plus 6, with characteristics of 100 shots, characteristic effect, when using the flying knife to attack, the hit rate is 100%, the mount is a peach blossom horse, the force value is plus 1 point, and the skill is the king of swords, Skill Effect ...... The characteristic is to break the formation, the characteristic effect, can completely see through the enemy formation whose intelligence is not higher than their own, and the attack power of our army is increased by 50% when the formation is broken, and the upper limit of the number of people who break the formation, 50,000 ......"

"Shhh...... Skills and characteristics are just that, and Mu Guiying is simply out of the same mold, but the characteristics of the Desperate Flying Knife are really a bit of a fork, which is simply an extra characteristic, this Fan Lihua is worthy of being the soul of the legendary Xue family general in the post-Xue Rengui era, both skills and attributes are impeccable. ”

This is also the reason why Liu He focuses so much on cultivating Fan Lihua.

At this time, Liu He looked at Xue Dingshan beside him again, and said with a smile: "Ding Shan broke the Yang Domain this time, killed Su Baotong, the general under the command of the Yang Domain, broke the formation to save his father, and made great contributions. ”

Later, Liu He rewarded Dou Xiantong and Xue Jinlian, worshiped Dou Xiantong and Xue Jinlian and Zhonglang General, and then led the crowd into the city, ordered to kill pigs and sheep, reward the three armies, and celebrate the return of Fan's father and daughter to the Han Dynasty.

Early the next morning, Xue Rengui accompanied Liu He to lead the army into Hanjiang Pass.

The surrender of Hanjiang Pass to the construction of Kaiyuan City solved the problem of materials and manpower, so that Xue Rengui could free up his hands to carry out the westward expedition, and handed over the construction of the city to the military and civilians of Hanjiang Pass and the people of Kaiyuan City.

Liu He naturally agreed happily, and after seeing that everything had settled down, he ordered the army to return to the court.
