Chapter 123: Liu Xie's Choice
In this vast universe, there are various high-level civilizations, and they all have their eyes on the earth, a low-level civilization planet.
Hongjun, the earth's Heavenly Dao program administrator, no one cares about where he has gone. The key is that those forces from different civilizations have openly begun to implant back doors in the Heavenly Dao and openly interfere with the civilization of the earth.
Fortunately, the Heavenly Dao program is a high-tech product of the Universe Alliance, and other civilizations can't completely crack it. What made them even more depressed was that Fang Yun not only traveled from the future to the ancient times, but also obtained the 'Qunying System', which was enough to compete with them.
Fortunately, they are not traversers, otherwise Ma Chao or Ma Dai are afraid that they will also be inspired by some kind of inspiration, and then fuse the martial spirits of the previous generation of famous generals, and then devote themselves to Liu Bei's command. And Pang De will also fuse the martial soul and devote himself to Cao Cao's command.
The result now is that Ma Chao, Ma Dai and Pang De have not fused their martial spirits, nor have they broken away from Fang Yun, or even controlled the two states of Yongliang and then joined other forces. On the contrary, second- and third-rate generals such as Li Tong and Lu Qian actually fused the martial spirits of famous generals, which is actually a very wasteful behavior.
This behavior of other civilizations is directly imposed through a backdoor program, so the Heroes system is not aware of it. And Fang Yun didn't know that such a thing had happened, he only felt that the strength of Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Ce had improved a little too quickly.
It's just that the system can't give an answer, so it's naturally even more impossible for him to know the truth of the matter.
This time, Fang Yun did not personally recruit, so it was obviously impossible to meet one of the future Five Tiger Generals for the time being. However, compared to his curiosity about Ma Chao, Ma Chao was also full of curiosity about Fang Yunjun at the moment.
Fang Yun's information, because of his identity, almost all high-grade families will inquire about it for the record. One is to be able to do what he likes when he has the opportunity; the second is also to avoid provoking him somewhere; In the end, it was to be able to find a chance to defeat him.
For Fang Yun's understanding, Ma Chao also knew that he started with the Yellow Turban Army, and with a small army of 100 people, he fought for this achievement, which was already a completely legendary-level life. The most important thing is that his army, the attrition rate of each sortie does not exceed 30%. In addition to the decisive battle with Yuan Fang, there are also two special cases of more than fifty percent of the loss when burning Nanpi.
What is rare is that this is a really strong army, and it seems that even if it is fought to the last man. They won't back down either.
With such a strong army, which general doesn't like it? Ma Chao used to hear about it, but now it's the first time I've seen it!
I have to say that when he saw those foot soldiers, not only did they form a neat phalanx. And when every step of the way forward was actually very neat, he already understood that the training level of this army was much higher than that of the soldiers under his command.
The army under his command can be regarded as a strong army in a hundred battles, but in terms of the neatness of the team and the mental outlook of the soldiers, it is far inferior to the other party. Take a peek and see the whole leopard, such an army is really not simple!
"The last general, Ma Chao, has seen the general!" Ma Chao saw Xu Huang coming. Came forward to say hello.
"The last general is just a mere general, General Ma is a terrible general!" Xu Huang bowed his hand to apologize, but he didn't really feel ashamed in his tone.
In fact, everyone knows that Ma Chao is a former general, and this is an honorary title given to appease him. You must know that in the past, the Han Dynasty also appointed Yuan Shu as the rear general, could it be that Xu Huang still had to salute him when he saw Yuan Shu?
He, the general, is the result of fighting one war after another, which is completely different from Ma Chao, an existence that picks up cheap for special reasons.
"It's all for the Han, why do you care so much about the level of the official?" But it was a young player next to Ma Chao who laughed.
"I don't know if this is ......," Xu Huang was curious. This young general can be by Ma Chao's side, obviously a cronie.
"That's Ma Dai." The young general, that is, Ma Dai, who was about to succeed the former general, bowed. He is Ma Teng's nephew and Ma Chao's cousin. He is one of the most potential generals in the Ma family, and his reputation is almost the same as that of Ma Chao.
"It turned out to be General Ma, Jiu Yang!" Xu Huang smiled, he has been a little more tactful in the past few years.
"Hey, what are you doing so much politely here, Chang'an City is surrounded. It's better to hurry up and get down to business! "Zhou Cang is still like that, everything goes straight. He was originally a general of the Yellow Turban Army, and he has learned a little bit of books and etiquette over the years, but if he wants to be as noble as a civilized person, obviously he can't do it.
"This is ......" Ma Chao looked at the bearded man in front of him and asked Xu Huang.
"This is General Zhou Cangzhou, one of the deputy generals this time, and he is the younger brother of the lord." Xu Huang smiled and introduced him.
The three of them inevitably had a polite look, but Zhou Cang responded a few words angrily, looking a little burning. simply stopped being polite, and went directly to the topic, and began to discuss how to attack Chang'an City.
"I just got the news that Han Sui gave up Hongnong County and went to Sidi and went to the Baibo Army. In other words, at present, this Chang'an City is only an isolated city, and we don't need to worry about the arrival of other reinforcements at all. The three of them came to the tent and analyzed it for everyone according to Ma Chao.
"Isn't it easy to trap the city?" Zhou Cang laughed, "Our army brought a heavy trebuchet that has just been researched this time, which can project five hundred catties of stone projectiles, even if the walls of Chang'an City are thick, under the bombardment of day and night, it is only a matter of time before the city is broken." ”
Ma Chao didn't say anything, but looked at Xu Huang, and he didn't believe Zhou Cang's words, but he just needed to verify it.
"It has been tested, and it can throw a 500-pound stone bomb two miles away, and if it is within 300 steps, an ordinary city wall will almost collapse directly under three bombardments. Chang'an City is indeed a city with high walls and thick walls, but it will not be bombarded more than 30 times at most, but I am afraid that it will have to collapse. Xu Huang nodded, agreeing with Zhou Cang's statement.
Even according to him, Zhou Cang's words were only reserved.
"With the appearance of such siege equipment, what city can be stopped in the future?" Ma Chao couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's just a model, a preliminarily made model. Our scientific research department is further improving to shoot farther, and the weight of the projectile is heavier, and it is more powerful, even more accurate! Xu Huang said proudly.
"Now Ma knows why the general dominates the world, and there are few counters!" Ma Chao was convinced.
As long as people who are not stupid know that the main source of a political power is the population, and the main source of the population is the city. Unless you plan to be a rogue, if you want to become a warlord, you must need a piece of territory. With the help of the garrison equipment, the city defenders could even stand up to enemy forces several times their size, especially cavalry units.
Now it's a good thing, the city defense is not safe, so if Fang Yun wants to expand, who else can stop him?
There may not be no method, but that is definitely not something Ma Chao can think of. If Fang Yun was here, he would have found that Ma Chao's intelligence was actually only 65 points, and he was just an unpopular strategist. I can think of such a degree, but it is difficult for him. On the contrary, the force is as high as 96 points, and Ma Chao is only eighteen years old this year, and it is very good to be able to have this kind of force.
He didn't have a record of fusing martial souls, and he couldn't fuse them, just because the system didn't recognize him as Fang Yun's subordinate general.
"The main problem now is that, according to the lord's orders, we have to give the puppet emperor Liu Xie a chance to choose." Xu Huang suddenly spoke, "Whether to choose to perish or choose to abdicate and surrender, according to the meaning of the lord, he is also His Majesty's younger brother, so as long as he surrenders, then we can't embarrass him." However, if he chooses to perish, then naturally he cannot be allowed to live, this kind of existence that is unwilling to give up his rights even if he dies, you can never guarantee what he will do. ”
Ma Chao and the others were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then they couldn't help but nod.
For example, if Liu Xie does not choose to surrender here now, and he does not eliminate him afterwards, then even if he is captured and brought to Jinyang to be stocked or something, as long as his desire for power does not disappear for a day, then who knows if he will attack Liu Wei. Obviously, everyone knew that what Fang Yun needed was just a puppet, so it didn't matter if Liu argued and Liu Xie.
Once something goes wrong with Liu Wei, then he, Liu Xie, will naturally become the new monarch, unless Fang Yun directly becomes the emperor. It's just that now Fang Yun has not been called emperor, and he will be called emperor if Liu Wei dies? As long as you have this confidence, then no one can guarantee whether Liu Xie will do something to kill his brother!
In fact, even if he chose to abdicate, Xu Huang meant to pretend not to know. Fang Yun publicly said that he had two choices, and even published them in the newspapers, but he was afraid that it was more to give an explanation to the princes of the world and Liu Wei. But how to do it, that is the matter of these courtiers, and sometimes, hearing the sound and knowing the meaning is the skill that a courtier should have.
Speaking of which, the weekly magazine has been published for a few days, and now it has been introduced to Chang'an. Just for further confirmation, a batch of weekly magazines were sent to Chang'an City.
According to Ma Chao's meaning, give them three days, and after three days, no matter what, they will officially attack the city.
During this time, in fact, everyone is also worried, what if Liu Xie really chooses to abdicate? Killing a prince with a clear conscience, this kind of thing is really not ordinary.
Fortunately, the next day, Chang'an gave an accurate answer: I am the emperor of the Han Dynasty!
Seeing this reply, all the generals couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Regardless of whether this edict was written by Liu Xie's original intention or at the instigation of the ministers, it doesn't matter.
As long as you have this answer, even if you do something, you will no longer feel guilty in your heart...... (To be continued.) )
PS: In the end of Liu Xie, he chose to be an emperor, even if he died!
