On the twentieth day of the first month of 195 A.D., on the land of Guanzhong, where thousands of mountains were covered with snow and thousands of miles of ice, there was suddenly a road of soldiers and horses with bright armor and neat queues, driving from west to east to Chang'an City.

The number of the army along the way is about 20,000 people, all the way to beat drums and gongs, banners and rolling in the wind and snow towards Chang'an City, the noise of the place passed, directly attracted the people in Guanzhong everyone to see.

At the same time, in the huge Chang'an City, the same people shouted and neighed, and Tai Shici, Xu Chu, Gan Ning and other generals were urging their subordinates according to their orders, and quickly sorted out their clothes, dry food, weapons, flags and other things to prepare for the expedition.

However, it turned out that after several months of development, although Huafei has no grain to harvest for the time being, the animal husbandry industry in Guanzhong has developed widely and effectively.

Because Huafei encouraged the people to raise six animals, Guanzhong now produces a considerable amount of eggs, duck eggs, cow's milk, goat's milk and mare's milk every day.

In addition, the trading houses in charge of Lu Zhu also received the help of printing, loom improvements, casting pots, jade and various local products, as well as delicious locusts, and also developed greatly in Jingzhou, Yangzhou and other places, and exchanged for a large amount of grain.

At the same time, Lu Su, who is located in Chengdu, and Yan Pu in Hanzhong, have also been ordered to continuously send a large amount of grain to Guanzhong to support the development of Guanzhong.

For these reasons, although the current Guanzhong has not completely overcome the difficulty of food shortage, it can already move its muscles and bones a little.

At the same time, after Hua Fei solved the problem of manpower shortage and took the Chongquan County Duan Xuan for the whole army, the strength of all the armies under his command was also fully replenished.

Later, Hua Fei knew very well that most of the people in this era were believing in a sentence, which was called: "The shore of the land is not the king's land."

That is to say, as long as you serve the Son of Heaven, then you can fight whoever you want in the future, and you don't have to worry about the problem of being a nameless teacher. Some people may think this is a bit exaggerated, but Hua Fei doesn't think it's an exaggeration at all.

Because for example, after Hua Fei served the Son of Heaven, he wanted to send troops to attack Cao Cao, who had a heavy army, so he could borrow the name of the Son of Heaven to casually seal Cao Cao's official position, such as sealing a commonplace.

If Cao Cao takes it then, then he will break away from the army and come to Hua Fei's territory, will he still be able to escape from Hua Fei's palm? Of course, this is just a metaphor, because Cao Cao is not so stupid, he will not give up his army and run into Hua Fei's tiger's mouth.

But if he didn't take this order, then Hua Fei could use Cao Cao's excuse to disobey his orders and be lawless, so that he could justifiably crusade against him.

So he knew in his heart that if he could serve the Son of Heaven to order the candidates, he could first occupy the righteous Hua Fei, and after he could use a little fist and kick, he moved his mind.

After Hua Fei solved the problem of food and manpower, he immediately summoned Xu Shu and Fa Zheng under his command to discuss the matter on the 17th day of the first lunar month.

On the seventeenth day of the first month of Guanzhong, the sky is cold, the snow is drifting, and the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are enchanting! The cold wind howled outside, but in the flag pavilion with a bright red fire, it made people feel warm like spring.

When Xu Shu and Fa Zheng, who were each covered in snowflakes, arrived, Hua Fei glanced at Fa Zheng, who was wearing a thick kapok brocade coat and wrapped himself like a brown child, and then at Xu Shu, who was wearing a mink coat and standing tall.

Nai pointed at Xu Shu and smiled at Fa Zheng: "Xiaozhi, it seems that this person who has a family and a bachelor who does not have a family, he is different!" Haha......"

"Ninety-four drops say!" Fa Zheng took the dust while brushing the snow on his body, and followed Hua Fei with white smoke and joked to Xu Shu, "People are taking care of people now, but they are not like this bachelor!" ”

"Lord, filial piety is going to make fun of Xu." Xu Shubian stretched out his hand proudly and embarrassedly, caressing the warm coat on his body, thinking of the careful care of his wife when he went out, he couldn't help but warm his heart! But he asked Hua Fei in a loud voice, "I don't know what the lord commands?" ”

"Oh! It's not a big deal," Hua Fei waved his hand and invited the two of them to sit down, before turning the somewhat cold Buddha beads and saying to the two, "Recently, Zhang Song brought back Hongnong's topographic structure drawings, but I don't know what you two think about this?" ”

"Hiss......" Xu Shu and Fa Zheng opened their mouths when they heard this, and they took a breath, both of them were extremely smart, of course, they could hear that Hua Fei was preparing to clean up Zhang Ji.

However, after the two glanced at each other, Xu Shu got up and hugged his fists first, and asked Hua Fei with a white breath: "Lord, it seems that the drunkard doesn't mean to drink?" ”

"Jiu Shidi said," Fa Zheng also got up and waved the dust and continued, "I also feel that the lord's intention is to be the Son of Heaven in the eastern capital......

"Haha......" Hua Fei looked up to the sky and smiled, "I know the two of you, and I will definitely be able to guess what I want to do in my heart." ”

Saying that, he paused for a moment, and then said loudly in the faint scent of sandalwood: "It's just that he has to eat this meal one bite at a time, and this guy Zhang Ji is stuck in the middle, after all, he has to clean him up before he can do this." ”

Hearing this, Xu Shu nodded his head and said with his sword: "Hongnong Zhang Ji first colluded with Bai Bo and the Southern Xiongnu to invade our Guanzhong when our army was in danger, and then when our army helped him fight against locusts, he even tried to attack our army in vain. ”

As he spoke, he paused for two steps, and then continued aloud: "And according to the report of the guards, this fang in Hongnong does not do anything to produce and only makes a living by plundering, and the people of Hongnong have already been forced by him to live rather than die. Like such wolf-hearted and dog-lunged people, it is our lord's right to seek thieves for the people, so as to uphold the justice of the world! ”

"That's right," Fa Zheng also waved the dust in the light silk and said in a loud voice, "Right now, Zhang Ji has been defeated in the hands of our army, and almost all the war horses under his command have been lost, while almost all of his troops are cavalry, so his strength is bound to be greatly damaged." ”

"That's right," Xu Shu paced with his sword, "and he has experienced the locust plague again this time, I am afraid that there is already a shortage of food in this army, and Zhang Xiu, who he relies on, has been defeated in the hands of Zhongkang and Ziyi, and the morale of his army is estimated to be extremely low at the moment. ”

"Hmm!" Hua Fei also nodded, "Not only that, but now that the sky is full of snow and the wind is blowing in the northwest, our army is attacking from the west to the east. ”

"Yes!" Fa Zheng also nodded and said, "I have already asked people to review the map brought back by Yongnian, and the terrain of this Hongnong is indeed as Yongnian said, it is a terrain of seven mountains, two plains and one river. ”

"It seems like this kind of terrain," Xu Shu said when he heard this, "but it is a terrain that is mainly based on mountain elite soldiers, supplemented by infantry and cavalry." ”

"It's a drop!" Fa Zheng nodded and replied, "Therefore, I think that the lord should transfer all the 10,000 mountain elite soldiers under the command of General Wei Yan, who are currently stationed in Hanzhong, to Chang'an to be on standby, just in case." ”

"That's right," Xu Shu also said, "and if General Wei is ordered to go north, he can also escort some more grain and grass to Chang'an in case of emergency." ”

Saying that, Xu Shu stopped and muttered for a while, and then continued loudly: "As for the commander of the cavalry, it is naturally better to be led by General Ziyi, who beat Zhang Xiudu to the point of jumping into the river. ”

"Haha......" Fa Zheng said with a smile when he heard this, "Yuan Zhi is really vicious, so wouldn't he scare Zhang Ji's subordinates into distraction?" ”

Saying that, he stopped laughing but continued: "It's just that if you just send General Ziyi out, I'm afraid it's not enough to scare Zhang Ji to death, and with the right intention, General Zhongkang, who beat Zhang Xiu to vomit blood in front of all the troops, should also be sent out, so as to scare Zhang Ji into fear!" ”

"Okay, you are filial piety," Xu Shu pointed at Fa Zheng and said with a smile, "You want Zhang Xiu to stop Zhongkang and not be able to stand Ziyi, where are you fighting with such a desperate plan?" You obviously want to scare Zhang Ji to death directly! Haha......"

"Wouldn't that be just right?" Fa Zheng also waved his hand and said with a smile in the dust, "Scared Zhang Ji to death, just so that the brothers can brave the cold to move this hand." ”

Hua Fei also smiled secretly when he heard this, but because of Fa Zheng's words, he thought of a more brilliant idea.

So after he made some detailed inquiries about Fazheng, he turned his hand to the warm Buddha beads in the faint scent of sandalwood, and said one to his two capable generals, which made both of them clap their legs and applaud. (To be continued.) )
