Chapter 271: The Sixteenth State

Seeing the reaction of the elites of the Blood Killing Army, Ao Lie's heart was sour, and he let out a long sigh. Sure enough, the long-term battle has made the nerves of these elites too tight, and in their minds, only things related to combat have been automatically blocked by them.

After sighing, Ao Lie put on a more relaxed look, and asked the Blood Killing Elite with a little ridicule: "What, don't you want to have a woman of your own?" ”

With Ao Lie's ridicule, thousands of bloody slaughter soldiers reflected it, and burst into cheers, and then pounced like wolves among hundreds of thousands of Huns, looking for the woman they looked at. In the desert, everything on the defeated side, including women, is the spoils of war for the victorious side, and the victor has the right to dispose of it at will. Therefore, hundreds of thousands of Huns did not react to such a move of Ao Lie, which in their eyes was a matter of course. Ao Lie's approach can be regarded as a reassuring pill for hundreds of thousands of Huns, being a woman in the Han army is better than losing her life, obviously, Ao Lie will not kill all the Huns in front of him.

Following the Bloodshed, the Shadow Members, who were instrumental in this battle, were given the right to choose their position. Surprisingly, many of the members of the Shadow automatically withdrew from the selection on the grounds that they were already married and could not be sorry for their wives. In this regard, Ao Lie expressed great understanding. These Shadow members are on the go all year round, rarely reuniting with their families, and the debt to their families in their hearts forces them not to do anything sorry for their wives and children, only those Shadow members who have not yet started a family. will choose the woman you like.

After that, there are two elite teams, the Tiger Army and the Dragon Army, which are selected at the same time. In the end, 20,000 recruits made a choice. Being called a recruit means that they are not very old, and many of them have not yet started a family, and Ao Lie gave them the right to choose women, which can be regarded as an encouragement to them, affirming their performance in this battle.

When Ao Lie stepped down from the Fengzen platform, he took the list of women selected by his subordinate sergeants. When it was handed to Zhuge Liang, Ao Lie suddenly showed a vague naughty smile and whispered to Zhuge Liang: "Kong Ming." Won't you choose one? Zhuge Liang's handsome face instantly turned red, and he was rarely shy, and he prevaricated vaguely: "No...... Not necessarily. Ryo already has a ...... Ah. In short, it's okay to be bright. ”

"Got it? When was this? Whose daughter is it? Ao Lie was taken aback by Zhuge Liang's words, and hurriedly asked. Such a big thing, Zhuge Liang has hidden it for so long, it's too unusual. Zhuge Liang blushed, pointed to the Feng Zen platform, and said in a low voice: "Lord, do you finish the business first." Is it better to ask this question again? ”

Ao Lie slapped his head, almost forgetting to get down to business because of curiosity. Under Zhuge Liang's reminder. Ao Lie put on a serious look again and turned to leave. Before leaving, he left Zhuge Liang with a big question: "The one you like is surnamed Huang, right?" ”

This time it was Zhuge Liang's turn to be curious, his private affairs have always been carried out "secretly", how could Ao Lie know the Tao? hurriedly caught up with two steps, but suddenly found that the occasion was wrong, Zhuge Liang retracted his steps in a daze, with a stomach full of questions, and was silent.

After the selection of the Han army under Ao Lie's department, there were less than 300,000 Xiongnu prisoners under the Fengchan platform, and Ao Lie ordered Zhao Yun to detain them together, and strictly monitor their speech and behavior, but they were not allowed to abuse them, especially women. As for the two populations that were originally Yufuluo and Huchuquan, Ma Chao was in charge of guarding them in another place.

After all, they were only old and young, not young warriors, and they had no weapons in their hands, and after learning that they would not be executed, they followed the usual customs in the desert and regarded themselves as Ao Lie's trophies and let them be disposed of.

After sealing the Zen, Ao Lie wrote two things, one was the order of the governor of Yanjing, asking Lu Su to lead 30,000 ordinary Han troops to the desert to temporarily take over the construction of the desert and deal with post-war affairs. Not long ago, the project responsible for the expansion of Yanjing had been completed, and Lu Su was also busy and free, just dealing with some government affairs every day. Rather than let him be idle, it is better to hand over the desert to him to manage, you must know that in history, Lu Su is one of the four governors of Eastern Wu, in dealing with the problem of Shanyue aliens in Jiangdong, Lu Su can be said to be handy, obviously he has and is good at dealing with the ability to deal with the relationship between Han and foreign races, and there should be no problem with handing over the Huns to Lu Su to manage, not to mention that in the case that the Huns have almost lost all their youth, there are 30,000 Han troops guarding here, which is enough.

The other is a memo written by Ao Lie to Liu Xie, which roughly describes the matters before and after the conquest of the desert, and asks Liu Xie to cancel the establishment of the Xiongnu Lieutenant Department, which has long existed in name only, and change the desert to the sixteenth state of the Han Dynasty. In the compromise, Ao Lie also recommended Lu Su to be the first governor of Xinzhou, as for what name Xinzhou will be called, as usual, it is still up to Liu Xie to decide.

The two documents were sent out of Lu by Ao Lie overnight. This expedition to the desert and Saibei has taken nearly half a year, and in this half year, Ao Lie's energy has been focused on the desert, and I don't know how Cao Cao is preparing now, maybe he is already impatient, right? Speaking of Cao Cao, Ao Lie still has contradictions, if it weren't for Yuan Shao, a common enemy, Ao Lie would definitely not cooperate with Cao Cao. Cao Cao, whether he is loyal or traitorous, when he used to read history books to understand Cao Cao, Ao Lie couldn't figure it out, but now he has traveled to the Three Kingdoms, personally experienced this era of war, and Cao Cao had close contact, Ao Lie still couldn't see Cao Cao's heart clearly. Those historians of later generations recorded Cao Cao, Ao Lie always felt that it was biased, after all, no one was a person of this era, how could he judge Cao Cao in the Three Kingdoms period from the perspective of future generations? This in itself is an inequality. Perhaps only Chen Shou, who compiled the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, has a certain value in his evaluation of Cao Cao.

In any case, before Cao Cao showed his true ambitions, Ao Lie would not do anything to him. And because of the geographical relationship, Ao Lie just can't do anything about Cao Cao, between the two of them, there is still a huge Jizhou, which is Yuan Chao's base.

In the next few days, Ao Lie was not idle, during the day, he did not forget to let Ge Liang or Xu Shu go to educate those Hun prisoners, so that they were honestly ready to accept Sinicization, as for those diehards, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, who were in charge of guarding, took out of Lu to educate separately, and a considerable part of the Huns who were taken out of Lu were never able to go back, so it was not something Ao Lie needed to care about, not accepting Sinicization, there was only a dead end, there was no doubt about it.

In the evening, Ao Lie and Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and Li Ru discussed the spy reports sent by the Shadow Members from all over the country, these spy reports have happened in the past, because Ao Lie's focus in the past half a year has been on the desert, and these spy reports have been backlogged; At the same time, there is also something happening, and Ao Lie and the others can analyze the future direction of things through the information collected by the Shadow Members.

One of the espionage messages caught Ao Lie's attention. Liu Bei actually took more than 1,000 of his subordinates, pitifully ran to Jingzhou, Liu Biao, who values fame very much, accepted Liu Bei generously on the surface, although Liu Bei has been removed from the identity of the Han family, but Liu Bei is clever and tongue-in-cheek, and he actually attributed his identity to the Han family's identity as a family member, and it was unnecessarily attributed to the level of Liu Xie, the son of heaven, who was deceived by others, and under the benevolent disguise that Liu Bei has painstakingly established, there are really many people who believe Liu Bei's words and accept Liu Bei's ridiculous explanation.

Although Liu Biao did not fully accept Liu Bei's explanation, he did not turn Liu Bei away, and called Liu Bei Xuande's brother with his mouth closed, which shows his kindness. Liu Biao is also in the north of Jingzhou, setting aside a county town for Liu Bei to recruit troops and horses, and its city is called Xinye. After seeing this spy report, Ao Lie couldn't help laughing, the wheel of history still sent Liu Bei to Jingzhou, Liu Biao was indecisive but loved to be famous, and he wanted to refuse Liu Bei and welcome him, and arranged Liu Bei to Xinye, just to make Liu Bei the first line of defense to resist Cao Cao. Xinye has a narrow terrain and a small population, it is difficult for Liu Bei to get a real turnaround again, for Liu Bei, if he wants to turn over, he can only wait until a few years later, Liu Biao will die, maybe at that time, Liu Bei still has some opportunities. Before that, it was enough for Ao Lie to tell Sun Ce that he would carry out harassing attacks on Jingzhou, especially in the Xinye area, from time to time and give a warning. After solving Yuan Shao's matter, let's find a way to deal with Liu Bei.

In fact, it's not that Ao Lie doesn't want to completely cut off Liu Bei's way of life, it's just that he is reluctant to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

The days passed day by day, half a month later, Liu Xie's edict reached the Wolf Juxu Mountain, officially canceled the Xiongnu school captain department, renamed Tongzhou, meaning the territory of the Han Dynasty, extending in all directions, across the world. And Tongzhou was assigned to Ao Lie's rule and incorporated into the jurisdiction of Ao Lie's governor, and also agreed to the candidate recommended by Ao Lie, and Lu Su served as the first Tongzhou pastor.

Different from the past, this time Liu Xie did not attach a private message, but asked Ao Lie openly in the edict: I want to crown the imperial brother as the king of Yan, I don't know what the imperial brother wants? Normally, in the edict of the Son of Heaven, there will be no interrogative sentences, because the will of the Son of Heaven is above all else, and no one can question the will of the Son of Heaven. From this point, it is enough to show Liu Xie's trust and respect for Ao Lie.

On the other hand, Liu Xie expressed his meaning in such a way, hinting to Ao Lie that if Ao Lie's strength was strong enough, Liu Xie would issue an edict of canonization, and if Ao Lie thought that it was not enough to compete with the princes of the world, Liu Xie would suspend the feud. The edict of the king is not under or off, all in Ao Lie's thoughts. (To be continued......)
