The state gate guy Zhong Hui listened to Zong Zhangxiu's words, and waved his little fist very excitedly, Spider Secret Four! "General, what are you waiting for, quickly send troops to Jiaozhou to dig up treasures!"

Seeing this, Ma Qiu tapped Zhonghui's headache lightly with the back of his index finger, and scolded: "You are really afraid that the world will not be chaotic!" When they saw it, they laughed in unison.

Zhang Xiu waved his hand, stopped everyone's laughter and said: "The excavation of Zhao Yu's tomb is too early, the general's idea is to take advantage of the arrival of our army to first send troops to attack Jiaozhi County, Jiuzhen County, and Rinan County in Jiaozhou. Take down all the southwest of Jiaozhou, and then continue to advance to the southwest, all the way to the sea! Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu clenched his fists heavily, and a trace of red light flashed in his eyes.

When Huang Zhong heard this, he frowned and said, "Lord, the south is hot, and there are many barbarians. The mountains and forests are dense and full of miasma, what good do you want here? ”

Zhang Xiu shook his head secretly when he heard this, the people of the late Han Dynasty didn't know the importance of these places, and thought they were barren lands in the southern barbarians. Zhang Xiu explained: "Hansheng's words are wrong. The heat in the south naturally has many disadvantages, but it also has many benefits. One of the biggest benefits is that the grain can be grown at least three times a year, or even four times, and then it can be transported to the Central Plains by sea and then into the Yangtze River, Yellow River and other rivers. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu paused and continued: "You should have also heard that Ben Jiang once said that the place in Guanzhong is actually unbearable to grow grain, otherwise Guanzhong, which has thousands of miles of wilderness in a hundred years, will become barren. The ruin of Guanzhong not only caused the Han people to lose control of the Western Regions and the Hu people in the north geographically, but also affected the Yellow River. And endanger Chongzhou, Qingzhou, Yizhou and other places. In this way, it will affect the fate of our Han nation in the next thousand years, and this is a danger related to the survival of the nation, and we must carefully consider it. ”

Fei Xi and Dong Yun are in charge of government affairs, although they have heard of such things, they have not paid attention to them before. At this time, I heard what Zhang Xiu said, so I thought about it carefully, and now it is just like what Zhang Xiu said. If Guanzhong is ruined, passing through the Yellow River will affect the downstream places, and the fate of the entire nation will be involved. After listening to this, the two nodded unconsciously, and the rest of the children, although they didn't think as much as the two of them, also nodded.

Zhang Xiu continued: "Therefore, we will prepare that Guanzhong will gradually return farmland to forests in the future and plant a large number of trees, so that the food problem must be solved." Although the Hetao is fat, its location is still in the north of Guanzhong, and the grain is up to two crops a year. Moreover, this place is similar to Guanzhong, which will affect the lower reaches of the Yellow River and cannot be separated. You must know that the Yellow River has only gradually turned yellow in the past few hundred years. Ben would have hoped that in a hundred years' time, the Yellow River would be clear again, which is not impossible. The south is hot, and the grain grows faster than the north, and the south has a short winter, so the grain crops grow longer than the north. At present, although most of the land in the south is barren, it only needs to be expanded to supply the whole country with grain. Therefore, Jiaozhou and the southwest of Jiaozhou must be taken down, these places have a lot of plains, which can produce a lot of grain, which is just a waste for the barbarians. ”

At this time, everyone understood why Zhang Xiu wanted to go south in person. You must know that there are many generals under Zhang Xiu now, and this southern expedition, whether it is Zhang Ren or Huang Zhong in command, is not a problem, and Zhang Xiu wants to personally lead the southern expedition. At the beginning, everyone thought that the purpose of Zhang Xiu's southern expedition was to train the public, but now it seems that the biggest purpose of the southern expedition is to actually understand the situation in the south, recruit barbarians to conquer places further south, and seek the potential of the Han people for thousands or even two thousand years. At this time, Lu Kai suddenly came out and said, "General, as far as Kai knows. In the west of Jiaozhou, the further south of Nanzhong is the country of Ugo, where the barbarians have close contact with the barbarians in Nanzhong, and the general can directly pacify the country of Ugo this time. ”

Zhang Xiu heard it, but he touched his chin and muttered, "Ugo country? The lord of the country seems to be the giant man of the vulture bone, and there are vine armor soldiers under him. And to the west of Jiaozhou, south of Nanzhong, it seems that this is where I crossed the former Burma. Zhang Xiu doesn't know whether he is in the late Han Dynasty in romance or the late Han dynasty in historical facts, but it seems to be both.

For the Ugo country, Zhang Xiu had a lot of speculation before he crossed. One of them is that it is located in the southern part of the former Burma, and it seems to be exactly that. This place later came out of the Angkor Dynasty, where there was a world-famous tourist attraction, Angkor Wat. However, the pronunciation of the Angkor Dynasty and the Anggo Kingdom is very similar, and since the Angkor Dynasty existed for more than 600 years, it was not extinct at the time of the death of Luo Guanzhong, who wrote the romance, so it is likely that the Angkor Kingdom was used to replace the southern, central and more southern places in this era. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the barbarians in the south to establish a state.

Zhang Xiu thought about it, and said: "What Ji Ping said is reasonable. It just so happened that this time the Ugo country was also recovered. In this way, most of the places south of Nanzhong can be taken down, and the place can be expanded to border the Heavenly Trench Country! ”

After speaking, Zhang Xiu ordered: "Righteous Xiaoru and lead the people of the headquarters, first go southeast into Jiaozhou, and take down the three counties of Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen, and Rinan." Then it pushed south. There is no winter in the place south of Jiaozhou, and the three months of winter are enough for you to lead your army to the sea. At that time, Ben will send officials to the south to carry out the opening. Wang Ping and Zhang Suru led 20,000 barbarian soldiers from their headquarters to go out with Gongyi, just taking this opportunity to train their troops. ”

Zhang Ren heard this, and led Yang Huai, Gao Pei, E Huan, Lu Kai, Wang Ping, and Zhang Su all to come out, and said, "No!" As for Deng Ai and Zhong Hui, Zhang Xiu did not let the two go with the army.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiu nodded and said: "There are not many defenders in Jiaozhou, and your main task this time is to expand the territory." After the success, everyone can be crowned! The barbarians also don't have a strong sense of territory, so it's best to avoid fighting as much as possible in case the barbarians resist. In case you don't understand the language, you'd better look for a guide when you wait. Zhang Ren and the others listened and nodded their heads one by one.

Turning around, Zhang Xiu said to the rest of the people: "I'll wait in this Sanjiang City, just wait for Meng Huo's army!" ”

Let's say that here, after Meng Shu found out that Zhang Xiutun's army was in Sanjiang City, he only sent an army to the southeast and did not move again. So he found King Mulu and Meng You, and said: "There is a salt well in Sanjiang City, and now it is controlled by Zhang Xiu's house, if we can't recapture our army without salt to eat, then we will collapse without a fight." I might as well lead my army to attack Sanjiang City. ”

Meng You was a little hesitant when he heard this, but King Mulu laughed and said, "Reasonable! This king has elephant soldiers and animal repellent teams, how can he be afraid of the Han people. This king has long wanted to enter the army, but you have hesitated again and again.

Meng Huo was not annoyed when he heard this, nodded and said: "Double" this. It's not too late, I'll wait for the troops to enter immediately, and the Lan people will immediately rush to the troops. Early in the morning of the second day, the three of them led the army to Sanjiang City in a hurry.

Meng Shu made such a big move, how could Zhang Xiu not know. After hearing the news, Zhang Xiu and the generals went out of the city to meet the enemy and looked from afar. Then he saw a large group of elephant soldiers taking the lead. Zhang Xiu saw two or three people sitting on top of the white elephant, all of whom were not wearing armor, only wearing single clothes and carrying long knives.

In addition to the elephant army, there were tigers, leopards and wolves and other fierce beasts in the mountains that were driven by the barbarians. And the beasts didn't tear each other apart. Instead, they lined up like an army, eyeing Zhang Xiu and the others. Although everyone has heard that there are capable people under the command of King Mulu who can drive away fierce beasts. But it's one thing to hear, it's another thing to actually see it. At this time, Zhang Xiuzhong was surprised, but the soldiers under his command were frightened. Most of these soldiers were new recruits, and although they had experienced some battles, they were naturally afraid of tigers and leopards, and they were not shocked at this time. Not to mention the recruits, even those veterans under Huang Zhong's department saw so many tigers and leopards shooting wolves, and they were in a cold sweat on their foreheads, and they were extremely nervous.

Over there, Meng Shu had already recognized Zhang Xiu, and pointed at Zhang Xing with a big knife from a distance and shouted: "King, this person is Zhang Xiu, just capture and kill him, and the Han army will be defeated."

The King of Mulu, who was holding two long knives, heard it and laughed, "Good! Boys, rush! Let the Han people see how powerful we are! , Wanmulu King immediately rushed out with the white elephant, and the elephant soldiers behind rushed at the same time, and the tigers, leopards and jackals also rushed together.

Seeing King Mulu leading the beast army to rush over, the faces of all the troops changed greatly, and some of the recruits even trembled. But Zhang Xiu, who was at the front, had a cold smile on his face and shouted: "Push it out!" ”

As soon as Zhang Xiu gave the order, he saw twenty wooden giant beasts automatically come out of the formation and rush towards the beast army of the Mulu King. After the wood beast rushed out, it couldn't stop spitting out tongues of fire from its mouth, and black smoke was emitting from its nose. Twenty wooden beasts were too small compared to hundreds of beast legions, but whether it was the elephant soldiers or the rest of the beasts such as tigers and leopards shooting wolves, they saw the wood beasts rushing towards them with flames, and at the same time became panicked and uncontrollable.

Beasts of prey are afraid of fire, this is the law of nature. In the face of the fire, even the best practiced beasts will be frightened, otherwise Zhang Xiu will travel through the previous era, and the beast circus will not perform the fire ring as a special performance program. Those well-trained beasts will still have accidents, let alone these so many lightly trained beasts.

In the face of the rushing fire-breathing woodbeasts, there is no one more panicked than the elephant. These thick-skinned and thick-skinned guys seem to be extremely breezy, but in fact, under the huge body is a fragile mind, and small stimuli make them panic.

Faced with the fire-breathing wood beasts, the elephant army was the first to collapse and quickly fled. Tigers, leopards, wolves and other beasts are also uncontrolled. Those barbarians who wanted to continue to command the beasts were directly overwhelmed by the panicked tide of beasts, and unfortunately they became the delicacies of the beasts.

The white elephant of the King of Mulu also got out of control, but the King of Mulu was also smart and immediately abandoned the elephant. Zhang Xiu saw it here, and the tiger-headed golden gun in one hand shouted: "All the soldiers, rush!" ”

The originally frightened soldiers saw that Zhang Xiu easily broke the enemy's fierce beast formation, and their morale was greatly increased.

Ma Qiu led a few small people to rush out, and the army immediately followed, surging up. Huang Zhong immediately rode his horse to keep up and commanded the army to fight.

Zhang Xiu, on the other hand, did not charge forward, but just smiled and watched a few small leaders charge. At this time, 6 Xun rode his horse to Zhang Xiu's side and admired: "The general is really powerful, and he thinks of breaking the beast with a fire beast."

Zhang Xiu laughed: "The general also thought of it at the touch of inspiration, but he secretly said in his heart: "This method is not my original, the original creator is Zhuge Liang, who is still in Jingzhou."

Before heading south, Zhang Xiu knew that he would definitely face the beast army. Zhang Xiu was not familiar with most of the situation in Nanzhong, but he was most familiar with the fierce beasts of the Mulu King and the vine armor soldiers of the vulture bones. And it just so happens that both of these classes are afraid of fire.

When he heard that Meng Shu had invited the beast army of the Mulu King, Zhang Xiuyi had created a batch of wooden beasts in Sanjiang City in the past few days.

This wood beast sounds mysterious, but to put it bluntly, it is a rushing car modified from its shell. Zhang Xiu first asked people to build 20 punching cars, and then modified the outside of the punching cars, depicting them in the shape of hideous beasts, which made people frighten from a distance. In addition, the Yokoto, who also has black oil in front of the car, ignites the black oil in the car, and can spew flames and black smoke from the mouth and nose of the wooden beast. And these so-called black oils are naturally the oil that Zhang Xiu said before he crossed.

After building the Erfengjia Wood Beast, the beast army of Meng Shu and the Mulu King was also killed. And now it seems that the tactic of using wood beasts to break the beast is still very successful.

In fact, Zhang Xiu still wants to use this beast army to fight, and if necessary, he can become a surprise soldier. It's a pity that Lu Kai said that this beast army has been trained by King Mulu for many years, and most of these beasts have been domesticated since childhood, not beasts in the mountains.

And these beasts can't go too far away from Nanzhong to fight, after all, if the animals don't adapt to the environment, then they can easily die. As for the elephant soldiers, they seem to be powerful, but the slowness and the weakness of being afraid of fire were directly vetoed by Zhang Xiu. It is better to use elephant soldiers than heavy cavalry, not only is it fast, but it also has amazing attack power.

Zhang Xiu was still watching here, and Ma Qiu led the children to surround Meng Yu, Meng You and King Mulu. The King of Mulu was stunned due to the rout of his beast army and heavy losses, and was captured by Zhang Hu in one face. On the other side, Tai Shixiang, Pang Hui, and Xu Gai attacked Meng You, and they had completely taken advantage. As for Meng Shu, he was attacked by Ma Qiu, Hua Jian and Zhao Tong brothers. In less than half an hour, the two brothers Meng You and Meng Huo were beaten to the ground one after another, and they were captured by the others to see Zhang Xiu. On the other side, Zhang Yi was in front and Huang Zhong was behind, and he also commanded the army to begin to incorporate the barbarian soldiers under the Mulu King.

Seeing that Brother Meng Huo was captured again, Zhang Xiu, who was sitting on top of Zilu, smiled and asked, "Meng Huo." Are you convinced or not this time? ”

Meng Shu snorted heavily and said, "This time I am waiting to attack, not you leading the army to capture me." I can't show your power, and I don't accept it."

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he laughed and said: "What kind of character is the Southern Barbarian King, it turns out to be such a shameless rat." Well, go ahead, I will capture you one more time, and next time, you will never escape with your life! In the end, Zhang Xiu's tone was calm. ,If you want to know what happened next,Please log on to 6 muscle states,More chapters,Support the author,Support genuine reading!
