The battlefield showed a one-sided situation, Shi Jun began to shout "those who descend will not be killed", and Cao Jun was powerless to return to the sky.

What is even more tragic is that the defeated army that rushed to the front was cornered and began to attack the 50,000 elite soldiers of the front army.

Outside Xiangyang City, Ma Chao's 50,000 army stood still, eyeing the tiger, and then was attacked by his own army, and then some Shi Xin's 100,000 army was menacing. Guo Jia knew that the general trend had gone, so he had to make a decision immediately, and let the generals and commanders lead the last 50,000 troops to flee to the west at full speed.

Ma Chao had already received Shi Xin's order to pretend to chase after him and follow them all the way, making an illusion that he couldn't bear to hurt just to surrender, and let them go west.

Halfway through the chase, he simply stopped, and only sent a small group of eagles to follow from afar, and a few days later, he got the news that Sima Jun had sent an army from Chengdu to respond.

Ma Chao's class returned to Xiangyang.

The abandoned army of 100,000 had no choice but to surrender. After merging all the armies totaling 250,000, Shi Xin once again divided his troops and subdued Jingzhou and Jiaozhou with a sweeping momentum, and the entire eastern Kyushu of the Han Dynasty was included in the bag.

After that, Shi Xin sat in Xiangyang and began to dispatch troops.

The first is the front.

He commanded a total of 700,000 troops, all of which were deployed on the front line. He divided all armies and civil and military forces into two legions, named after the North and South Legions.

Zhou Yu was the governor of the Southern Army, sitting in Xiangyang, commanding the military of Jingzhou, Yuzhou, and Jiaozhou. The auxiliary ministers include Fa Zheng, Lu Su, Chen Gong, etc. The generals include Sun Ce, Tai Shici, Tong Yuan, Li Yan, Zhang Xiu, Zhang Ren, Gao Shun, Wang Yue, etc.

Xu Rong was the governor of the Northern Army, sitting in Yecheng and commanding the military of Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Youzhou. Auxiliary Wenchen has Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Ju Pei and others. Among the five tiger generals, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong, Yan Liangwen Chou, Gao Ran, Zhang He (surrendered), Pan Feng, etc.

Jiangling in Jingzhou, Jiangzhou and Hanzhong in Shangyong directly faced Yizhou, each with 100,000 soldiers and horses, and Xiangyang and Qiao, which were supply points and administrative posts, also stationed 100,000 troops each.

The second pass is the Tiger Prison Pass and the Huguan Pass, which respectively guard against Sima Jun from Luoyang and Bingzhou, and garrison 100,000 troops in the nearby city.

The remaining 100,000, Shi Xin was divided into two and arranged in Yecheng and Chenliu respectively. His plan was to expand the army by another 100,000 within the year and replenish the two cities.

In this way, the total number of troops reached 800,000, which can be said to be impregnable.

But there were a lot of battles fought during this time, and the soldiers began to appear war-weary, and they just had a year off.

Of course, this needs to be in the case that Sima Yi also thinks the same way.

After the front line is stabilized, the movement of the large rear cannot be delayed.

Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yangzhou, which were not included in the North and South Army, just formed a straight line and became the rear area, responsible for the production, storage, and dispatch of resources.

As for Jiaozhou, the situation is basically the same as Youzhou. First, there was no real dragon shield to cover it, and secondly, it was located in a remote area, and even if a war broke out, the war would not be affected for a while, so Shi Xin only sent a small number of troops and a few civil servants to take over.

Zhang Zhao, Gu Yong, Huang Yueying, Chen Deng, Xu Shu, Mi Zhu, Zhen Yi, Wang Xiu and other internal affairs talents have their own duties, and they have managed the country while tapping talents.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner, and now that Shi Xin and Sima Yi are equally divided into the Han Dynasty, the general trend of the world has become clear.

Shi Xin stayed in Xiangyang for more than two months, and then went to Chenliu.

He first led everyone to worship Cao Cao, met with Xu Chu and Dian Wei, who were guarding the tomb, and comforted him with kind words. He is the future lord of the two, and the two of them are very polite in their words.

Saying goodbye to the two, Shi Xin walked into the state governor's mansion, where there was a burly figure

Waiting for him.

"Lord...... Lord!"

Cao Ren hurriedly saluted, and his expression was still a little unnatural. He had several confrontations with Shi Xin before, and there were many contradictions, if it weren't for Cao Cao's deathbed, he would probably still be a general under Cao Pi now.

One can imagine the complexity of his heart now.

"General Cao Ren, I've kept you waiting. ”

knows Cao Ren's inner history well. put on the most pleasant attitude and hurriedly helped him up.

"The lord held such a beautiful funeral for Meng De, which was like a prince, and his subordinates thanked the lord for Meng De. Cao Ren's eyes were slightly red, and his tone was a little choked, "It's a pity that Zihuan ...... him"

Shi Xin stopped Cao Ren's words, "Everyone has their own ambitions, Cao Gong is very kind to me, and I will not blame him for what his heirs do." If he encounters him on the battlefield one day, I will let him live. ”

Cao Ren was extremely moved, the three Cao Pi brothers were not only the sons of the former lord, but also his sons and nephews, so naturally they didn't want to see them end miserably.

"I learned that Sima Yi arranged Cao Pi in Chengdu, so as not to embarrass you to meet, so General Cao Ren will serve in the Northern Army in the future. ”

"Thank you, lord!"

After gossiping, Shi Xin introduced the topic, "General Cao Ren, I talked to you about transforming the tiger and leopard ride before, and then I thought about it again and again, and finally had some clues. There are at least three improvements to the Haw Par ride. ”

Seeing that Cao Ren's face was a little unnatural, Shi Xin hurriedly explained: "General, don't get me wrong, the tiger and leopard riding is already very strong, but it can be improved. ”

"This first point, the war horse is not strong enough. ”

Cao Ren finally couldn't help it, "Lord, my war horses are all carefully selected, and each one has been built with a lot of money. Dare to say, looking at the Han Dynasty, it is almost difficult for anyone to match. ”

Shi Xin was unimpressed by Cao Ren's almost rude argument, and asked rhetorically, "How about compared to Meng Qi's Fubo Ride?"

Cao Ren stopped talking.

The horses ridden by Fubo are almost as strong as those ridden by tigers and leopards, but the staying power and flexibility are not comparable to those ridden by tigers and leopards. In the last battle, the two battalions competed and completely fell to the upper hand.

Seeing Cao Ren's acquiescence, Shi Xin continued: "This second point is the riding skills of the sergeants, they were all taught by Meng Qi and the two lieutenants who were good at riding, which can be described as the unity of men and horses. ”

The corners of Cao Ren's mouth twitched, and this point was even more irrefutable.

"The third point is that the soldiers' veins are too single, and in addition to riding their horses and ramming, their attack power is very weak, if they can add one more vein...... Hehe, I can boldly predict, definitely the trump card of the cavalry. ”

Cao Ren finally let out a sigh and said helplessly: "Lord, I admit these three points, but my ability is limited, and this is the limit of what I can do. Especially on the third point, the pulse master of the full-body defense vein is already extremely difficult to find, and if you add the attack vein weapon, wouldn't it be even more difficult?"

Shi Xin said proudly: "I have 700,000 armor, countless elites, although Zixiao is chosen between the two legions in the north and south." Maybe there were few at first, but how could you get a few hundred people?"

Cao Ren began to think in his heart, and this possibility is not impossible.

"I have instructed Meng Qi to lead the two lieutenants to Youzhou to find war horses for your tiger and leopard riders. After this is done, he will come to Chen Liu with his war horse. During this time, you will work hard, go to the barracks to choose soldiers by yourself, and when Meng Qi comes back, you will study equestrianism together and build a new tiger and leopard horse. ”

Cao Ren was grateful, turned over and bowed: "Thank you for your love." ”

Shi Xin picked him up, "Alright, let's go." ”

For the next period of time, Shi Xin stayed in Chenliu. As a state that runs through the north and south

At the same time, it is very close to the Tiger Prison Pass, and the strategic location of Chenliu is quite important.

Therefore, he placed the headquarters of the Eagle Ministry in Chenliu, and Jia Xu, Shi A, Zhang Meiniang, Yuan Xi, Ma Ting, Qin Jian and other high-level officials of the Eagle Department also moved over to carry out intelligence work in an orderly manner.

In addition to the Eagle Department, Jia Xu also took care of Chen Liu's Taishou, the governor inside and outside Yanzhou. Huang Zhong, one of the five tiger generals, is the chief general, accompanied by Huang Xu and Zhen Mi.

Coupled with Xu Chu and Dian Wei, who guarded the tomb for Cao Cao and could be temporarily called in case of special circumstances, Chen Liu could be said to have a large number of soldiers, don't forget that there is a real dragon shield here, and he even has the ability to rush to the aid of the Tiger Prison.

When everything was arranged, Shi Xin found Cai Yan and discussed going to Lishan again.

"Yan'er, now that the war is gradually subsiding, I am going to go up to Lishan again to unlock the second mechanism in the secret room. ”

As soon as these words came out, Cai Yan suddenly remembered something, "Ouch, I've been fighting all this time, but I forgot." Uncle Mei once mentioned Lishan to me. ”

Shi Xin frowned, "What did she say?"

He was a little flustered, and when he thought of Aunt Mei's strange behaviors and words on Simei Mountain, he always felt that Aunt Mei had guessed his identity as a traverser.

Knowing that she even knew the secrets of the imperial tomb, I felt that she was even more powerful.

Shi Xin couldn't help but guess, could it be that she also crossed over? If she had crossed over, then she had already crossed before she was resurrected, otherwise Zuo Ci and the others would have noticed it a long time ago.

This is terrible, Shi Xin can ensure that Wang Mang is the first traverser, and now there are many Mei Gu, a complicated mood spreads, a little lost, a little uneasy, and I always feel that it is not a taste.

I only heard Cai Yan continue: "Uncle Shi didn't say much, after you left that day, she took me to live at the foot of Simei Mountain. I probably asked about your situation, and after hearing that you had collected four beast beads, he smiled mysteriously and said that if you go up the mountain again, you must bring more people. When I asked again and again, she smiled and said nothing, only that it was right to listen to her. ”

Shi said with a hard smile: "I always feel that she knows a lot of secrets. With more manpower, is there any danger in the second organ?"

His words made Cai Yan a little more worried, "Since Senior Uncle Mei said so, we should be more prepared." But it's not okay to bring too many people, after all, it's close to Chang'an......"

Shi Xin said: "I have already arranged it, didn't Yan'er see that I didn't arrange a task for Kong Ming and them? In fact, I had a hunch that the second mechanism was not simple, and I planned to take them up the mountain together." ”

Shi Xin brought Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Zhou Tai, and Zhang Ning to briefly introduce the situation of Xia Lishan and the second organ. Everyone had already heard that the first mechanism had given Shi Xin a lot of benefits, and they believed that the second channel was also the coexistence of crisis and opportunity, and they were all excited about the next task.

Several of them have cooperated together since childhood, and they know their respective skills, and they have all been promoted to the ninth rank. This is the best choice when the number of people cannot be too large.

There were six people on the trip, and the speed was going to be very fast, so they didn't need to be carried with them little gold or silver. Shi Xin left it with Jia Xu and instructed it to obey Jia Xu's orders.

This arrangement is entirely due to the incomparable flight speed of Xiao Jinyin, which is better than any scout. If there is an emergency military situation, it can be notified to all localities as soon as possible.

What's more, since absorbing the flesh and blood of the four alien beasts, Xiao Jinyin's size has become even larger, and it is difficult not to be spotted in the air.

For the small gold and silver that almost grew into the shape of a dragon, the cold as Jia Xu also gave birth to a kind of awe-inspiring mentality, and his attitude was polite.

Everyone was young, and there was nothing to clean up, so they just did what they said, and left Chenliu on the same day, looking at the direction of Chang'an.
