Hearing the voice behind him, the corners of Zu Zhao's mouth hooked an arc, and then he turned to look at Feng Luoxue who was standing behind him and smiled: "Luoxue, how do you know that I am here." ”

"Guess what." Feng Luoxue smiled mischievously, and then sat next to Zu Zhao.

Zu Zhao shook his head and smiled and was about to say something. I saw Zhang Yuan running and saying, "Liechen, it's not good, now it is estimated that the world will be in chaos soon." ”

Zu Zhao thought about it for a while, Emperor Ling didn't have any crisis now, it should be said that it was not the time of chaos in the world. So he said: "Wen Yuan, you say slowly, even if the world is in chaos now, we still have a period of time in Liaodong to give us a reaction." ”

Zhang Yuan took a deep breath, calmed his breath and said: "The latest news comes that Emperor Ling has decided to open up the military power of the place, and the control of the military power of the place is no longer so strict, and he asked to resist the rebellion of Xiliang. ”

Zu Zhao said lightly: "The Xiliang Rebellion, didn't it already break out during the Yellow Turban Rebellion last year. Zu Zhao still remembered that Han Sui and Bian Zhang were called Han Yue and Bian Yun respectively at that time.

"At that time, Emperor Ling still felt that the Xiliang Rebellion was just a small fight, so he didn't care, and besides, compared with the Yellow Turban Rebellion at that time, the Xiliang Army was really a small thing." At this time, Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song also came over and said.

"So what's the news from the imperial court now?" Zu Zhao turned his head to Zhang Yuan and asked.

Zhang Yuandao: "Emperor Ling told the world that all people with lofty ideals should go to Liangzhou to help the imperial court clear the rebellious army. ”

"His Majesty the Emperor is really a good calculation, just such an order is to let each place form its own army, since it is a private army, it must be paid for by itself. However, Emperor Ling added an article to open up local military power. Is. Zu Zhao said helplessly.

Huangfu Song said: "But no matter who faces the opening of local military power, they will not hesitate to jump into this pit. ”

Zu Zhao shook his head and continued to ask Zhang Yuan, "Then who is leading the army sent by the imperial court?" ”

"Emperor Ling once again used Sikong Zhang Wen as the general of the chariot and cavalry, and Yuan Peng as the deputy. Worship General Dong Zhuo. Zhang Yuandao.

Zu Zhao pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go, let's go to the house and look at the map." ”

Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song glanced at Feng Luoxue, with the kind of smile on their daughter-in-law's face, and Zhang Yuan also winked at Zu Zhao. At this time, Zu Zhao suddenly remembered that Feng Luoxue had always stood by his side, but he had snubbed his family because of Zhang Yuan's news, and his face was red for a while.

Seeing this, Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song and Zhang Yuan took the first step, and Feng Luoxue couldn't help but laugh when she saw Zu Zhao's embarrassed appearance. said: "Okay, big things are important, you go quickly." ”

Zu Zhao looked at Feng Luoxue's smile, which also relieved a little embarrassment, and then stepped forward, held Feng Luoxue's hand and said, "When the world is calm, we will find a place to give birth to a lot of dolls." ”

When Feng Luoxue heard Zu Zhao's words, her face was as red as the sunset on the horizon, and she shook off Zu Zhao's hand and said in shame: "Who wants to have a bunch of dolls with you." Then he ran away.

Zu Zhao rubbed his nose and shook his head with a smile, and he also took a step to discuss the Xiliang rebellion that attracted the attention of the imperial court.

Walking into the house and seeing that Lu Zhi and the others were there, Zu Zhao smiled and said, "I forgot to ask just now, how is the attack and defense of the Xiliang army and the imperial court now?" ”

"Han Sui, Bian Zhang and others are now in the Kou Sanfu invasion of the garden. And Zhang Wen and others were temporarily stationed in Meiyang with more than 100,000 troops from various counties to defend the garden mausoleum. Zhang Yuan continued to explain.

Zu Zhao walked to the side of the map and said: "For now, the forward positions attacked by the Xiliang rebels are Hanxing and Chencang, the distance between Hanxing and Meiyang is almost a day, and Chencang takes three days. ”

Huangfu Song nodded and said, "That is to say, if you can, the defenders can take the initiative to attack." On the one hand, he threatened Chen Cang, so that Bian Zhang would not dare to move again, and then after Beigong Boyu left Hanxing City, he attacked Hanxing City. In this way, it may be possible to solve the siege of Meiyang. ”

"It's just that we weren't the ones who led the troops, so we're just talking on paper now. Forget it. Lu Zhi couldn't help but smile when he saw Huangfu Song getting more excited the more he spoke.

Zu Zhao opened his mouth and said: "Actually, I don't think the current Beiliang rebellion needs to be taken too seriously, because first of all, the rebellion in Beiliang is not a heart, which gives the imperial court a chance." At the same time, in fact, there are still Han people in the Xiliang army, so I am not optimistic about this rebellion. ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Then won't it be as big as the Yellow Turban Rebellion to sweep the world?" ”

"Of course not." Lu Zhi said, "The Yellow Turban Rebellion took advantage of the people's dissatisfaction with the imperial court, and at the same time, Zhang Jiao's witchcraft created momentum, which led to the most chaotic chaos. ”

"In fact, it can also be said that the main force is different, the main force of the Yellow Turban Rebellion is the people, and the main force of the Xiliang Rebellion is only the Xiliang people. This is destined to have a different effect. Huangfu Song continued Lu Zhi's words.

"Actually, the Xiliang Rebellion has nothing to do with us, but since His Majesty the Emperor has begun to relax military restrictions on the localities, then we will plan some of the military plans a little earlier." Zu Zhao touched the map and said.

"That means we won't participate in the Xiliang Rebellion this time? But how can the court explain this? Zhang Yuan asked.

Zu Zhao smiled and said: "There is not much difference between us and whether there is a Xiliang rebellion or not, but there is one point, we may be used as gunmen if we go, so the best decision is not to go." As for the court, guess. ”

Zhang Yuan suddenly had a black line on his forehead, he didn't expect Zu Zhao to give him such a sentence, so he turned his head to the side, too lazy to take care of Zu Zhao who looked like this.

Zu Zhao looked at it, and then touched Luoyang on the map and said: "You must know that Lu Dao is still the Ten Constant Servants, so I believe that only for now, they will not come to offend me, a boy who scatters wealth." So we don't have to worry about the affairs of the court at all. ”

Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment and asked, "So that means that we will continue to arrange it according to our plan?" ”

"No, no, no, since the imperial court has given us such a good opportunity, how can we ignore it, so our plan still needs to be changed." Zu Zhao waved his hand and said.

"So what is our priority now?" Zhang Yuan asked.

Zu Zhao smiled mysteriously, leaned into Zhang Yuan's ear and whispered. After finishing speaking, I saw that Zhang Yuan's face was already as black as the bottom of the pot, and he walked out of the room with his head down.

Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song, who watched this scene, both had a feeling that the second monk was confused. Zu Zhao looked at the appearance of the two elders, and did not say what he had just said, but said: "Teacher, I think I may still have to trouble you to teach my generals some methods of leading troops, and our time is running out." ”

"What do you think?" Lu Zhi asked.

"The Xiliang Rebellion has been going on for so long, it can be said that it has come to an end, if it will continue, then it will inevitably become that some Han courtiers have also participated in the rebellion and formed an alliance together." "But no matter what, there will be a potential factor that will stop this war." ”

Huangfu Song pondered for a moment and said, "The Spirit Emperor has died. ”

"That's right, once the Spirit Emperor dies, then it will inevitably start to cause chaos, and it is unknown how chaotic it is. The main thing we can do now is to accumulate our own strength, so that we can adapt to the situation. Zu Zhao said.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and then I saw Zu Ji, Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yu and Han Dang walking in. At this time, Zhang Yuan still had a black face, and Huangfu Song couldn't help but ask, "Wen Yuan, what did Liechen tell you just now?" ”

The smile on Zu Zhao's face couldn't help but thicken when he heard it, and said, "I told him just now that it is our top priority to eliminate the potatoes and sweet potatoes that can't be put away. ”

Hearing Zu Zhao's words, even the corners of the taciturn Han Dang's mouth rarely pulled an arc, and then Zu Zhao said with a straight face: "Since His Majesty the Emperor has relaxed the military power of the locality, then we will advance the development of the army a little, and what is the problem with the formation of Han Dang's heavy cavalry." ”

"There is no problem with the horses, and now if the problem is still heavy armor." Han Dang said.

Zu Zhao thought for a moment and said, "What do you think would happen if everyone turned the Pu knife into a battle axe, and the horses would be able to withstand it?" ”

Han Dang thought for a moment and said: "Actually, I suggest that the tomahawks are equipped differently, we still have some particularly good war horses, which can be equipped with heavier tomahawks, and as for the others, we can equip light axes." ”

"Well, since it's a heavy cavalry, some of them can also be equipped with shields. Zu Ji, how is your equipment over there? Zu Zhao asked.

"Don't worry, the equipment here is at least fully equipped and able to have some surplus for the current army, and then it is just right for the immediate equipment. It's time to start crafting new gear. Zu Ji said confidently.

"Okay, then I'll give you the rest of the drawings later. Wenyuan, I want to know how our Chamber of Commerce is now. ”

"The Chamber of Commerce is already on the right track, and the intelligence network has been largely built. We can almost completely control the current movements of the imperial court, but we have not been able to control some of the movements in other states too carefully, but it is estimated that it will be about the same in three or four months. ”

Zu Zhao nodded and said, "Okay, then that's it, we are almost following the plan now, and then we will pay attention to the movements of the displaced people and expand our army as soon as possible." After finishing speaking, Zu Zhao signaled that Zhang Yuan and the four of them could go and get busy.

"General, there are still things you haven't ordered." Zhang said urgently.

Zu Zhao was stunned for a moment, what else was going on, and then looked at Zhang Yu with a questioning expression.

"Our neighboring countries, such as Goguryeo, are they going to knock on it at the right time?" Zhang pre-said.

After hearing this, Zu Zhao smiled and said: "I forgot about this, but I don't need to rush it first." Our current smelting skills have been able to provide us with sophisticated equipment, but to say that our recruits always need to go through baptism, then the target is them. ”

Then Zhang Yuan and the four of them arched their hands, and they all left to prepare separately. Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song saw that it was too late and left, leaving Zu Zhao looking at the map in the house, his fingers groping for the map, and his thoughts also moved.

The day of Emperor Ling's death is getting closer and closer, and Zu Zhao also feels a sense of oppression from the bottom of his heart, and there is not much time left for him to prepare, just for now, once the princes of the world rise up, his opportunities are actually not very many, so he must take advantage of the present to accumulate strength.

Suddenly, a light flashed in Zu Zhao's eyes, and the corners of Zu Zhao's mouth hooked an arc.
