Chapter 74: Three Visits to the Academy
Liu Xiu and Lai Xi returned twice in vain, which reminded him of the plot of the three visits to the thatched house in the romance.
In order to win the great sage, not to mention just running a few more times, even if you break your leg, you have to ask people back, and if you can't do it, you will be tied up.
As the saying goes, the most effective method is often simple and rude!
Liu Xiu calculated in his heart.
Or at the foot of Phoenix Mountain, the simple and quiet Qingtian School.
"Wen Ruo, has Mr. ever come back?" Pushing away the firewood, Liu Xiu asked when he saw Xun Yu.
"It just so happened that the teacher was taking a lunch break today, and he slept until mid-afternoon." Xun Yu invited the two of them in.
"Please let Mr. Xiao know, I sincerely ask to see you." I'm a little impatient.
This person in the mountains, why is there such a big shelf?
I ran back and forth twice, and now it's the third time, the first two times are forgotten, this time it makes people wait, and it's even too much to sleep over, too much to take yourself as a master, too little to take others seriously.
Liu Xiu didn't care, but chatted with Xun Yu without a word.
"Why don't you see Guo Jia?"
"He's studying hard in his study."
Xun Yu led Liu Xiu and the others to the library.
I saw a thin figure, staring intently at a map.
"This is a big Han map?" Liu Xiu saw the hand-drawn map of this era for the first time.
Although it is far less realistic and accurate than the maps of later generations, the maps drawn have included five divisions of prefectures, counties, counties, townships and villages, which are very detailed.
"I've only seen it in my life." Come and breathe.
"This map is drawn by the teacher after traveling all over the beautiful rivers and mountains, and the only one is of course precious." Guo Jia said proudly.
"Where is Shinno?" The dense pictures and texts were dazzling, and Liu Xiu spent a long time trying to find the outline of Nanyang County.
"This location." Guo Jia has been studying this map for a long time, and casually pointed to the southwest direction of Wanxian County and said.
Liu Xiu nodded.
"The big dream is like waking up, I know it in my life, this sleep is really comfortable!" Liu Bowen's voice came from the back room.
"The teacher is awake." Xun Yu went in to report, saying that Liu Xiu and the others had been waiting for a long time, but they were scolded by Liu Bowen: "Shaft, how can you snub your guests so much? Why didn't you tell me earlier that you had a distinguished guest? ”
Xun Yu slandered: You always do it deliberately, and you throw the pot at me, so I won't be fooled.
"Take me where your guest is." Liu Bowen put on a long coat and hurriedly came to see Liu Xiu and Laishe.
"I've seen Mr. Aota!" The two of them saluted.
"How many hours has the old man slept, so you can wait?" Liu Bowen said, and reprimanded Xun Yu and the others again.
"It doesn't matter."
"I don't know what you mean by that?" Liu Bowen asked.
"I want to ask Mr. to go out of the mountain to help." Liu Xiu said bluntly.
"The little old man is a wild man in the countryside, and he is used to being lazy, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." Liu Bowen asked Guo Jia to serve clear tea.
"If Mr. doesn't come out, how can the world be stable?"
"What do you mean by that?" Liu Bowenqi said.
"Sir's knowledge is heavenly..."
Liu Bowen interrupted him and said, "I'm ashamed, I don't dare to be!" ”
Although he said so, he looked proud and complacent on his face.
Dare to be affectionate, just a fake politeness.
"Reckless thieves steal power, the world loses power, and the people suffer for a long time. Although I was born in the Han family, I am very virtuous and talented, and I often think about the ministers who are auxiliary and can't, and I ask Mr. to give me advice. Liu Xiu's words were sincere.
"In this case, the little old man is presumptuous."
Liu Bowen spread out the map of Kyushu and said loudly: "The world's Kyushu is disturbing, and the new reckless Han is going against the sky." There are many reckless people in the world, according to my opinion, the general is the top priority, first take Nanyang, attack Wancheng, and set the capital here, so as to compete with the princes. ”
"Wancheng is easy to defend and difficult to attack, based on it, and then enter Yingchuan, patrol Hebei, east of the red eyebrows, north of the copper horse, good friends Kui, Gongsun Shu, encircled, then the reckless thieves are destroyed, and then compete with the heroes, so as to set the world, so that the people are peaceful."
"Mr.'s high-level argument made me suddenly, Uncle Wen asked Mr. to go out of the mountain again to help my brother get rid of the traitor and calm the world. My two brothers are willing to serve Mr. as a teacher for the rest of their lives. After Liu Xiu finished speaking, he bowed to Liu Bowen, and his sincere heart moved the heavens and the earth.
"Torture the old man." Liu Bowen stretched out his hand to help Liu Xiu up.
"If the gentleman doesn't agree, I won't be able to kneel for a long time." Liu Xiu said, always wincing.
Come to understand the heart, and kneel down when you are in a posture.
Liu Bowen sighed helplessly: "General Meng will not give up, and the old man will go out of the mountain." ”
Liu Xiu was overjoyed, stayed in Qingtian School for a few days, and then returned to Jianyang City with Liu Bowen and others.
Liu Xuan heard that Liu Xiu sought a great sage in Xinye Mountain, and he also respected Liu Bowen very much.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the side quest: successfully recruiting Liu Bowen, rewarding 500 points of military merit, 20 red-coated cannons, and 3 shells."
The red-coated cannon is finally here, and only 3 shells are given for Mao, and the door slamming system is dead, and the grandmother is home!
"The system releases the main task: please ask the host to defeat Kunyang within three months, and reward 2,000 points of military merit after the task is completed, papermaking and printing."
One of the four coveted inventions, papermaking and printing, came out after a long time, and Liu Xiu was in a good mood!
......
On the outskirts of Thorn Sun, the altar.
Liu Xuan worshiped heaven and earth and prepared to go on the Northern Expedition.
The banner of the Han Dynasty is waving in the wind, the morale of the soldiers is high, and the mountain shouts long live!
"Soldiers, the opportunity to make contributions has arrived!" Liu Xuan ascended to the top and shouted.
"The great man is mighty, the general is mighty!" All the soldiers shouted in unison.
"Expedition!" Liu Jiao's sword pointed at the sky, and his voice was like a bell.
Hohoo ho! The neat and uniform big man walked in front of Liu Xuan with steady steps.
Then there was the Zhu Dragon Rider under the command of Ran Min, all of which were red armor shining in the scorching sun, looking golden and shining.
......
Finally, there is the well-trained Zhuge crossbow battalion and the firearm team.
The 150,000 army marched towards the Jingbei battlefield, Liu Xiu led the main force to attack Wancheng, and Liu Xiu divided 50,000 troops to capture Nanyang, Xi'e, Bowang and other counties, as well as Kunyang and Dingling in Yingchuan.
Capturing Wancheng in one fell swoop and making it the capital of the new empire was the first step in the plan, and it was also a crucial move.
Laying Wancheng is Liu Xuan's long-cherished wish.
At the beginning, the defeat of Xiao Chang'an was still in front of him, and Liu Xuan wanted to be ashamed!
This time, no matter what, Wancheng will be captured at all costs.
Liu Xuan's army passed through Xiaochang'an again, it was a mixed feeling, this place was a nightmare for Liu Xuan and the Chungling clan.
Most of his relatives died here.
Some of the clansmen did not have time to bury them, and they had already turned into dry bones at this moment, telling about the pain of the past.
"Second brother, second sister, my brother is here to avenge you!" Liu Xuan's eyes were red, and his hatred for the Xinmang court became deeper and deeper.
The army did not stay in this sad place for long, but came to the city of Wanxian County.
When the guards of Wancheng Zhen Fu and Cen Peng learned of it, they immediately strengthened the city defense and waited for it.
"Sons, follow me to attack the city!" As a general, Liu Xuan took the lead and was unstoppable.
Inspired by it, the soldiers also rushed to the city wall without fear of death, even if they fell to pieces, they would never retreat.
This war is extremely cruel!
The bones of the city are piled up, and the vultures hovering in the sky will eat carrion at the slightest opportunity.
