When Ao Lie learned that Liu Xie had actually driven to Hanzhong in person, the Imperial Court's Five Route Army had already set off for more than five days, and it was only after the Shadow members from all over the country had killed more than a dozen horses that the news was passed to Ao Lie, who was thousands of miles away. In just five days, I am afraid that Ao Lie is the only one who can receive this news.

After receiving this news, Ao Lie's heart immediately sank, and an ominous premonition came to his heart. Liu Xie's ability, Ao Lie is the most clear, it can be said that Ao Lie is half of Liu Xie's master, Liu Xie's ways and methods of handling affairs, basically learned from Ao Lie, Ao Lie clearly knows the way, Liu Xie can handle political affairs, but leading troops to fight is an out-and-out layman! With his command level that is not even at the entry level, how can he be the opponent of Liu Bei, an old fox? I really don't know why Emperor Fu Song and Zhong Xuan didn't advise and connive at Liu Xie's nonsense!

Out of concern for Liu Xie, Ao Lie immediately called Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu, and asked them to take the five thousand bloody killing troops first, and they must catch up with Liu Xie day and night, and stop Liu Xie before Liu Xie and Liu Bei fight. Ao Lie understands that although Liu Bei keeps talking about the country and the people all the time, he will never be caught with his hands tied, nor will he be left to Liu Xie's disposal, maybe Liu Bei will take this opportunity to make trouble again, fish in troubled waters, and get some benefits from it, which is Liu Bei's forte. After Liu Bei got Yizhou, a large number of talents were subdued by him, Yizhou civil and military forces led by Fa Zheng, Huang Quan and others, but they are not idle people, with the assistance of these people, Liu Bei is really like a tiger with wings, like a fish in water, if Liu Xie insists on going his own way, does not follow the advice of Huangfu Song and Zhong Xuan and others, then this battle will undoubtedly be lost.

Liu Xie is Ao Lie's brother. It is also a symbol of the imperial power of the Han Dynasty, once Liu Xie has any accidents, the Han will really fall, and the new order that Ao Lie has worked hard to establish for ten years will be destroyed in a flash, Liu Bei and Cao Cao will definitely take advantage of the situation to replace the Han Dynasty and establish a new regime respectively, so that the people of the Han Dynasty will fall back into chaotic disputes. Liu Xie is not the only one who will be harmed, a large number of innocent people will be sent to the battlefield to serve as a weapon for supreme power, and the entire Han will fall into unprecedented turmoil, and thousands of Han people will be threatened by their lives and may be engulfed by war at any time...... This is by no means a scene that Ao Lie wants to see! Therefore, Liu Xie must live well! Tens of millions of Han people must continue the inheritance of the Han people!

Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu understood Ao Lie's intentions, and immediately packed up their weapons and armor. With five thousand elite blood slaughterers, he galloped towards Hanzhong. This battle can't just start like this, at least not before Ao Lie rushes to it! Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu's task was to stop Liu Xie's advance, and everything would be decided after Ao Lie arrived.

After Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu left. Ao Lie did not stop for a moment, immediately reorganized the army, prepared grain and grass, and tried to go to Hanzhong as soon as possible to support Liu Xie. At the very least, make sure that he doesn't have too many accidents. Liu Xie is a banner of the Han Dynasty and a benchmark in the hearts of tens of millions of Han people, so. He can't fall, Ao Lie will never allow him to fall!

It only took two days for Ao Lie to prepare a set of grain and grass, and then immediately took the Blood Killing Army, 10,000 elites of each army of the Longxiang Army, and 30,000 iron cavalry to form an army of 50,000 people, and marched to Hanzhong in a double way. It is also a coincidence, after Ao Lie got the wealth on Fusang Island, he had a lot of money on hand, but there was no war in the recent period, Ao Lie used most of this wealth to build various large states of Yan State, and also opened twenty-four righteous warehouses, so that there was not much money and food left in his hands, this time Liu Bei started too suddenly, Liu Xie's decision to drive the expedition was even more unexpected, in a hurry, Ao Lie could only take 50,000 cavalry to the expedition, if there were more, There will be a problem with the supply of grain and grass, and Ao Lie will have to leave enough grain and grass to prevent Cao Cao in the Central Plains from taking the opportunity to attack his back.

On the fourth day of the departure of Ao Lie's army, Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu finally caught up with Liu Xie in Fufeng County, on the border between Guanzhong and Hanzhong. In just six days, across a distance of thousands of miles, this can be regarded as a miracle in the Han Dynasty, where the means of transportation were not yet developed, for this reason, most of the war horses of the elite of the blood killing army were exhausted to death, and even the spare horses were already out of breath, and even Zhao Yun's little white dragon and Zhang Xiu's white crane, these two thousand miles of horses, have also fallen into malaise, which shows how hard Zhao Yun and others have worked hard to gallop all the way.

Liu Xie had seen these two people several times, and because Zhang Ji swore to stick to Chang'an, he was killed by the rebellious Li Dao and Guo Yan, and he looked at Zhang Xiu differently, so after seeing them, Liu Xie seemed very happy, and took their hands to the Chinese army's tent.

After entering the account, Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu saw dozens of civil and military ministers lined up on both sides, discussing the matter of entering the army in a low voice. Zhao Yun groaned slightly, and said loudly to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, before the Yan King sent the last general to come, he instructed the last general to tell the Holy Lord that he must wait for the Yan King to lead the army to arrive, and then decide whether to enter the Hanzhong." Therefore, the last general believed that our army should temporarily stand still and wait for the arrival of King Yan. ”

Liu Xie looked straight at Zhao Yun, shook his head slowly, and said firmly: "Every time, it is the imperial brother who shelters me from the wind and rain, this time, I want to regain the dignity of the Han with my own hands, and General Zilong doesn't have to persuade him anymore." ”

It turns out that Liu Xie thinks so! He wanted to personally crusade against Liu Bei, so that everyone in the world would know that the majesty of the Han Dynasty was still easy for anyone to challenge! This battle is different from the past, Liu Bei's approach, although it can't say anything on the surface, but in fact, it has touched the bottom line of Liu Xie, or the bottom line of the Han regime, and it is related to the dignity of the Han Dynasty inherited for four hundred years, and this dignity is Liu Xie's responsibility as the son of heaven, and he must recover it with his own hands!

Looking at Liu Xie's resolute face, Zhao Yun finally knew that Emperor Fu Song and Zhong Xuan and others would not stop him, because no one, let alone power, could stop the current emperor of the Han Dynasty from maintaining the dignity of the entire country and the four hundred years of inheritance! At this moment, it seems that Liu Xie is no longer a symbol of the imperial power of the Han Dynasty, and he is no longer the son of the Han Dynasty, he is just the most ordinary man, a man who takes up arms to fight in order to protect his homeland!

Sighing softly, Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu glanced at each other, knelt on the ground, and said in unison: "The last general is willing to follow the saint and hold the whip and stirrup for the saint!" "Since they can't stop Liu Xie, they have to follow Liu Xie to fight together, at least, the two of them can also protect Liu Xie's safety, so that he won't have any accidents, and it can be regarded as fulfilling Ao Lie's entrustment to them.

At this time, Zhong Xuan on the side suddenly showed a trace of deep sadness in his eyes, and glanced at Huangfu Song who was standing opposite him, and both of them couldn't help but sigh secretly. The scene from a few days ago came back to the minds of both of them at the same time. At first, Liu Xie was very angry about this, the king is weak and the minister is strong, which will inevitably lead to some careerists taking the opportunity to make waves and reap benefits, this sadness deeply stimulates Liu Xie's heart, so he decided to drive the expedition and send troops to fight against Liu Bei.

At that time, Zhong Xuan and Huang Fu Song were strongly opposed, they thought that Liu Xie had not really led troops, did not have the ability to command the battle, if blindly sent troops, maybe there would be danger, seeing that these two veterans who had gone through three dynasties strongly opposed, Liu Xie summoned them into the apse, and quietly said something to them, it was these words that finally made Zhong Xuan and Huang Fu Song change their minds and agree to Liu Xie's troops, as for what Liu Xie said to their two old ministers, in addition to the three of them, There is no fourth person who knows about it.

The next day, Liu Xie dispatched troops and sent troops to the army, and wrote an edict in his own handwriting, agreeing to Liu Bei's request to be crowned king according to the strategy proposed by Zhong Xuan, and officially named Liu Bei the king of Hanzhong. This is a means of confusing Liu Bei, which is intended to paralyze Liu Bei, so that after receiving the edict of the Son of Heaven canonizing him as the king of Hanzhong, his heart will be relaxed due to extreme joy, creating time and convenient conditions for the army to enter Hanzhong.

Zhong Xuan and Huang Fu Song also discovered from that day that Liu Xie, who was watched by them since childhood, is no longer a young man, but has grown into a real man. Zhong Xuan and Huangfu Song can never forget what Liu Xie said to them on that day, that day, Liu Xie made a trade-off that they didn't expect, a decision that will have a profound impact on the fate of the Han Dynasty.

Putting away the chaotic thoughts in his heart, Zhong Miao hid the sad look in his eyes, stood up and said: "Holy Lord, it is better to let General Zhao and General Zhang be the scouts of the army, the prestige of the elite of the blood killing army, the old minister has long been like thunder." ”

In the whole world, there is no army that can be more comprehensive than the bloody killing army under the command of Ao Lie, it can be said that the bloody killing army is slightly worse except for the water war, and all other aspects are first-class and high-level at that time, and those scouts under Liu Xie are not comparable to the elite of the bloody killing army, so Zhong Xuan will make such a suggestion. In Zhong Xuan's view, this is a very dangerous battle, so all the details must be done well in order to avoid some things that are not within the scope of control.

When Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu heard this, they took a step forward at the same time, gave a standard military salute to Liu Xie, and said in unison: "Let the saint drive, the ministers will never give up!" (To be continued......)
