In fact, Liu Chuang also knew in his heart that Jia Xu was not easy to deal with.

This guy has been the mastermind of many people, but those people either died or surrendered to Cao Cao, only this Jia Xu is more and more proud.

Jia Xu does things without a last resort.

What's more, he is likely to be accompanied by a Cao Peng who claims to be the first person in the second generation of Cao, and it is really difficult to catch these two people.

But watching him slip away from his hands like this, Liu Chuang still felt uncomfortable in his heart.

Finally, Jia Xu threw himself into the net, who would have thought that ...... If you want to arrest him in the future, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult. What's more, the old fox stole the recipe for his own black powder. It's not clear if he's taken the full recipe, but he has a workshop overseer in his hand, which means he has a solid foundation. And Cao Cao has a lot of talents under him...... In this case, it seems not impossible for them to develop black powder. However, even if they knew the match, they would not be able to succeed right away.

At the beginning, Liu Chuang handed over the ratio to Huang Chengyan, but it took Huang Chengyan nearly three years to succeed......

It's just that in this way, I have to speed up.

It is necessary to dare to solve Cao Cao before Cao Cao develops the Heavenly Thunder Fire, otherwise once the Heavenly Thunder Fire is lost, it will definitely become a problem for his henchmen.

"Zhongda, who is going out of the town now?"

"Now it is Zhou Yuanfu who is sitting in the brigade."

"Zhou Cang? Isn't he in Donglai? ”

"Two months ago, General Zhou contracted an illness, so he returned to the brigade to recuperate.

He will return to Donglai ...... later."

"That's a big brigade. How many ships are there? ”

"More than twenty of them."

Liu Chuang gritted his teeth and said viciously: "Immediately send someone to Luda and order Zhou Cang to go to sea to intercept it, and stop Jia Xu as much as possible." ”

"Jia Xu?"

Sima Yi was stunned for a moment. Suddenly exclaimed: "Lord, do you mean that Jia Xu is on that boat?" ”

As Liu Chuang's eyes and ears, he has the information of all the strategists under Cao Cao in his hands, so he naturally knows what kind of storage he is.

Hearing Liu Chuang say this, he can still stay calm.

This change in Liaodong was actually presided over by Jia Xu himself? No wonder......

At the same time, Sima Yi also gritted his teeth, "If I had known that it was Jia Xu, I would have fought to the death and would not let them go." ”

Liu Chuang looked at Sima Yi with a look of annoyance. I couldn't help but smile slightly.

He held out his hand. Gently patted Sima Yi's shoulder. "Zhongda, Jia Wenhe is already old, and it is not enough to worry.

You're still young. Sooner or later, you will be able to surpass him...... It doesn't matter if you let him run away this time, no matter what, you broke his plan, and it can be regarded as a great achievement. ”

In Sima Yi's heart, this is a little better.

But thinking that Jia Xu was running away right under his nose, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

At this moment, a person walked out of Yingkou Town.

The man looked like a fellow, and came to the front of the team tremblingly, and said in a trembling voice, "Dare to ask." That is Uncle Liu Huang? ”

"Who are you?"

"I, I'm the guy in this town...... Last night, someone gave me a hundred dollars and asked me to give a letter to Uncle Liu.

He said that Uncle Liu Huang would definitely come. ”

Liu Chuang's eyes narrowed, and he waved his hand to signal Fei Xiongwei to let the man come over.

The young man trembled and handed over a letter, and Sima Yi hurriedly took a pine torch and approached Liu Chuang.

"Tie this time, fight again in the future!"

There are only eight words on the letter, but it reveals an inexplicable provocation.

Liu Chuang narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Draw?

It stands to reason that he ruined Jia Xu's plan this time, Jia Xu should have failed, why should he say it was a tie?

Could it be ......

Sima Yi also saw these eight words, was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Liu Chuang's expression, and suddenly smiled.

"Don't be deceived by this Jia Wenhe, I'm sure he didn't get the Heavenly Thunder Fire Formula."

"Oh?"

"You think, if this Jia Xu really got the Heavenly Thunder Fire Formula, he would definitely keep it a secret.

When he brought out the heavenly thunder and fire, the two armies fought again, and he suddenly used it, wouldn't it be unexpected? But what he said about a tie was to make the lord think that he had won the heavenly thunder fire and was jealous. How can this kind of trick of covering your ears and stealing the bell be concealed? ”

When Liu Chuang heard this, he suddenly showed a sudden look.

Sima Yi is right, if Jia Xu really gets the formula, he will definitely keep it a secret.

He's trying to trick me!

However, he also really admires the characters of this era, and the ghost ideas are one after another. If it weren't for Sima Yi seeing through the mystery, I'm afraid that Liu Chuang would have been worried for a long time. Thinking of this, Liu Chuang couldn't help but sigh and shook his head gently.

This Jia Xu is really a poisonous snake!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

In November of the eighth year of Jian'an, the Battle of Guanzhong kicked off.

But at this time, a rebellion broke out in Liaodong...... Twenty-six Liaodong tycoons led by Tian Shao, a great tycoon in Liaodong, joined forces to plot a rebellion.

Fortunately, Liu Chuang found out in time and defeated this rebellion in one fell swoop.

Among the Tian clan, only Mrs. Tian was spared, and a total of 1,200 men, women, and children of the Tian clan were uprooted by Liu Chuang and all of them were killed; And the remaining 26 Liaodong Haoqiang were also bloodily slaughtered by Liu Chuang. In Liaodong County alone, as many as 10,000 people were affected by Tian Shao's rebellion...... The rest of the two counties, such as Lelang and Xuansu, were also affected. After Liu Chuang suppressed Tian Shao's rebels, he changed his previous moderate attitude, sacrificed a butcher's knife, and went on a killing spree in Liaodong, Lelang and Xuansu.

In just one month, nearly 10,000 people died under the butcher's knife.

In addition, more than 30,000 people were punished with hard labor because they were implicated, ranging from 20 years to 3 years.

Liu Chuang has always been tough in the eyes of Youzhou people. But not cruelty.

But this time, they saw Liu Chuang's bloody side...... It is said that Liu Chuang ordered people to be executed on the banks of the Liaoshui River. More than 10,000 people, a month of killing. Dye the whole Liaoshui red. Because it was a harsh winter, the Liaoshui was frozen, so that the entire surface of the river turned red, and the execution grounds on both sides of the river were soaked in blood...... For the next ten years, the land on the Liaoshui River Beach was blood-red.

Later, people called this river beach: Red Water Bay!

However, this massacre also brought many people to their senses.

Under Liu Chuang's rule, their lives were not hard.

Since Liu Chuang occupied Youzhou. Find ways to change their living circumstances.

Promote high-yielding crops. Promote Tuntian. Encourage agriculture, and exchange a large number of cotton crops from Jiaozhou to withstand the severe cold.

Liu Chuang invented the fire kang. so that people don't feel cold when it's cold; Liu Chuang's promotion of commerce also made Youzhou's goods more and more abundant.

In this case, to rebel?

Could it be that you have to live in the ice and snow, and you must endure the days of alien attacks to live and work in peace and contentment?

It's not that Uncle Liu Huang can't kill people, if he really angers him, killing people will make the world change color, which is terrifying. Therefore, it is better to live honestly. Youzhou is becoming more and more prosperous. The population is getting bigger and bigger, and it doesn't seem to hurt for Youzhou.

Even Liu Chuang himself didn't expect that he originally only wanted to clean the remnants of Liaodong back then, but in exchange for a more stable Youzhou.

It's just that at this time, Liu Chuang has no mind to pay attention to these things.

After receiving the order, Zhou Cang immediately led the fleet to attack, preparing to intercept Jia Xu in the Bohai Bay.

But who would have thought that this Jia Xu did not take the Qingzhou route, but went straight to the Gushui estuary, landed in Quanzhou, and then drifted away.

Quanzhou, but under the rule of Youzhou.

By the time Liu Chuang got the news and wanted to send someone to stop him on the shore, Jia Xu and his party had already passed through Bohai County and arrived in Qingzhou along the way.

In this regard, Liu Chuang couldn't help but feel helpless.

This Jia Wenhe is really too difficult to deal with......

The aftermath of the Liaodong Rebellion is still continuing, and the prelude to the Battle of Guanzhong has also begun.

Huang Zhong and Wei Yan raised 50,000 troops and marched to the Qingshi bank.

How do you know that Cao Ren defended the city and blocked the advance of Huang Zhong's army...... After Zhao Yun took Longguan, he was blocked by the joint efforts of Cao Zhen and Xiahou Yuan. Although Zhao Yun was brave and good at fighting, the other party was not an idle person, and the two sides were at a stalemate all of a sudden.

At the same time, Cao Cao also got the news.

Liu Bei was transferred from Xinye and joined Liu Biao's eldest son to join Jiangxia.

This also made Cao Cao feel relieved, Nanyang did not have Liu Bei's threat, it was not enough to worry.

Xun Yu's soldiers solved Cao Cao's worries in the south without blood, and at the same time communicated with Liu Bei to check and balance Jiangdong's westward advance, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

In this way, Cao Cao no longer has any worries.

Therefore, he personally led a large army to garrison Yixian, preparing to find fighters and launch a counteroffensive against Liangzhou......

For a time, the war in Guanzhong was in full swing.

However, Handan, Jizhou, is particularly deserted.

Cheng Wu was the son of Cheng Yu and was ordered to garrison Handan.

After he arrived in Handan, he closely monitored the movements of the Han army in the north.

It is also strange to say that the battle in Guanzhong is so lively, but the Han army does not seem to have any movement.

Zhang Liaotun soldiers Yiyang, but did not move; And Hao Zhao was stationed in Ji Ze, and he didn't make any moves. Not only Handan, but also the Han army everywhere seemed to fall into a kind of silence. None of them acted, as if they wanted to wait for the final result of the battle in Guanzhong.

As the son of Cheng Yu, Cheng Wu has been practicing martial arts and studying military books under Cheng Yu's supervision since he was a child.

From his name, you can also see Cheng Yu's expectations for him.

This time, Cheng Yu was the assassin of Jizhou and supervised the battle of Yecheng, and Cheng Wu, as his son, did not enjoy any privileges, but went to the front line.

Faced with such a strange reaction from the Han army, Cheng Wu also felt that something was not normal.

However, the Han army did not move, and he did not know how to respond. Just keep it the same and see what tricks you can play.

On the one hand, Cheng Wu was fierce, and on the other hand, he ordered to strengthen the defense.

Before you know it, it's mid-November.

At this time, the news of the Liaodong Revolution finally came, which also made Cheng Wu feel relieved.

It turned out that it was not that the Han army did not do anything, but because Liu Chuang's backyard caught fire and was not in Yanjing...... However, the Liaodong Revolution has ended, and it is believed that it will not be long before Liu Chuang will return to Yanjing. At that time, the Han army will inevitably move, and there will be a big battle.

On the one hand, Cheng Wu felt relaxed, and on the other hand, there was an inexplicable pressure.

That night, after inspecting the guards in the city, he returned to the palace to rest.

Who would have thought that when the second half of the night came, when Cheng Wu was asleep, he suddenly heard a loud sound of the sky falling apart, and the whole Handan trembled in this roar like thunder.

Cheng Wu was shaken down from the bed and asked in horror, "What happened?" Where did the sound come from? ”
