The fire burned for more than half a day, and the screams resounded through the main battlefield, and even the Han army, who was a bystander, was infected by the smell of burnt paste coming from the air.

As the commander of the army, Wei Yan had a relaxed and casual face on his face, and he didn't have any superfluous expression.

"Gradually clear the horses and deer, there is a water source and a place to store water in the great camp, and this fire will not burn them all to death..."

It is true that the fire will not burn all the Cao army to death, but when the fire is extinguished, the Cao army will also have no power to resist at all, and the scorched black ground is still full of mud when stepped on.

The rain of arrows in the sky sent them screaming directly under the Nine Springs to reunite with their ancestors and ancestors.

After the destruction of Huan Yu's department, the other camps were much simpler, and under Wei Yan's charge, there was almost no place to stop them for a moment.

Rout and escape once again became the main theme of Cao's army.

When Wei Yan caught up with Chen Tai and the others, there were still many Cao soldiers who had not boarded the ship, and countless Cao soldiers fell into the Yangtze River in a fight.

The surging river instantly submerged them, and thousands of soldiers and conscripts became the water ghosts in the river, and the fish suffocated to eat.

Even Chen Qian after the break was captured alive by Wei Yansheng, if it weren't for the fact that he still had some ability, and Chen Tai and most of the soldiers and horses had already boarded the ship and left.

Wei Yan also had to send him a rain of arrows and take him away directly....

After the last remnants of Cao Wei's army were also sent away, Wei Yan immediately reported the battle report to Liu Feng, the prince of the Han Dynasty in the rear, and then united Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren and others to directly start attacking the last difficult bone in Jiangdong, the Whisker Dock...

The place where the water inlet between the Wet Whisker Mountain and the Qibao Mountain is said to be to emulate the Shaobi transformed by Cao Mengde... I wanted to use it for adequate food.

But the construction of tens of thousands of troops turned this place into a key place.

Once... This is a critical place!

Lu Xun's fire, Zhuge Ke's fire, plus so many years of waste... Even if the foundation of this wet dock is good, it no longer has the style of the past.

When the three-way siege of the Han army began, Zhang Ren and Zhao Yun fought successively, not only killing and destroying many soldiers under Lu Xun, but also making many people "forced" to surrender.

And Jiangdong generals such as Tao Ji, who surrendered to the Han Dynasty back then, have now begun to continue to say words of persuasion to Lu Xun and others in the Whisker Dock.

I hope that they will be able to realize that they have lost their way, give up continuing to flee, and give up resistance....

In the face of such an offensive, the generals of Jiangdong also gathered together again.

Led by Lu Xun and left and right by He Qi, Zhu and others, the old Jiangdong Department was pale and ugly at this time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today... I'll make a decision! ”

As one of the people in charge of the Zhu family in Wu County, Zhu Ju, the younger brother of the famous Jiangdong general Zhu Huan, never thought that he would face such a scene one day.

At this moment, he looked at the silent generals and colonels, and then at his pale and bloodless nephew Zhu Yi.

finally set his sights on Lu Xun, who was the leader.

"Bo Yan... Your abilities over the years are obvious to all.

The Wu Hou back then also insisted on it for a while because of you, even if I waited... Even if we wait for the current situation.

I never thought there was anything wrong with your decision-making!

Now that the Han army is in front of us, what can you do to break the enemy? ”

"Nope!" Lu Xun shook his head directly, "Let's not say for the time being, Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren are both cautious people, and they don't give me a chance to wait for a plan."

Even if... Even if it was replaced by Wei Yan, even if Wei Yan had to prove his ability to use some means.

I won't have a chance to wait! ”

After Lu Xun finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh, he knew that although some words were ugly, he had to say them.

"Before, I was still wondering why I didn't receive the news from Cao Wei's great Sima Cao Ren, but that Cao Ren received the news from us.

During this time... A large number of generals began to flee to betrayal, and turned around and threw themselves into the command of the Han army.

I think you've already guessed about that, right?

After the fall of my Jiangdong Sun clan, everyone's minds were not very calm, and over the years, the thief Zhou Budo has continued to deliberately increase the strength of our family and help us wantonly expand our land and private soldiers.

In this way, not only did I have a dislike for Cao Ren and Na Cao Ren, but most importantly.... Even within Jiangdong, we have lost the hearts of the people! ”

"Inside Koto..."

"It's the interior of the land of Jiangdong, although the power in my family was huge, but there were people in Huaisi who also had vitality, and other local wealthy families in Jiangdong also had some opportunities.

But wait and see all these years... No... I'll wait for myself to see what I've done.

The Jianghuai generals fought to the death for the Wu State, and a large number of wealthy clans fled away, and I was able to plunder unscrupulously.

The strength has grown, but this heart is dirty!

Even if the people knew that it was the accumulation of generations such as me, what would it be?

Even if the other wealthy clans in this Jiangdong land understand that this is what I have obtained from my ancestors to the bloody battlefield now, what can I do?

What they see is that our children are indulgent and indulgent, and they have no chance to live since they were born.

We don't dare to say that we will cut off their way up, but the facts in front of them make them feel sad and angry...

Zhou Budo and Na Wei Wei have been trying to let the people of this Jiangdong land see the changes in us, so that I will completely lose my foundation before I know it.

Even if I wake up now, they won't say anything forgiving.

Ladies and gentlemen... I can't wait for a chance! ”

"....." Zhu Ju and the others were silent for a long time, and finally Quan Cong couldn't help but speak, "If I leave..."

"Where can you go after you leave?" Lu Xun directly interrupted Quan Cong's words, "After leaving, with the current situation of Jianghuai Qingxu, I can't keep the military power in my hands."

Even Ben General didn't think that the Cao clan would be able to hold out for long in this situation.

Don't look at them, they still occupy a small half of the world's land, but they also have no edge and sharpness.

Since the death of Xun Yu and other old ministers, their situation is not much better than ours.

This battle in Jiangdong seems to be fighting Jiangdong, but in fact, it is killing the edge of the Cao family.

If the Cao clan has no edge, he will have no hope...."

"Then if we surrender...", a disciple of the Lu family beside Zhu Wei couldn't help but say at this time, "What if we surrender again, although it doesn't sound good.... But there is still hope in the end! ”

"Leave a way for future generations! Could it be that we have made the wrong choice, and we have to let our children and grandchildren also be affected by us?

If the junior said this, it would be enough, you are the same age as the general, and the generation is a full generation older, you are embarrassed to say this?

Today I am waiting to die, far away in Luoyang and the heirs of the Han army.... At the very least, you'll get some preferential treatment. ”

Lu Xun directly glared at the Lu clan general who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and the anger in his eyes made the Lu clansman directly shrink his neck and quickly retreat.

At the end of the 38th year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty, Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren and Wei Yan were overwhelmed by the three-way army, facing the dilapidated dock fort and thousands of enemy troops who would rather die than surrender.

The three raised their blades almost simultaneously.

"Kill!"

"Perfect them!"

The eleventh day of the first month of the thirty-ninth year of the Han Jian'an

A fast horse galloped into Chang'an City, and a soldier in armor was galloping wildly in Chang'an City, where horseback riding was forbidden in the whole city!

And in Chang'an City, which was heavily guarded and strictly forbidden to ride horses, no one dared to stop this person, just because he had the flag behind him, as well as the war horse and the blood and mud on his body.

"Urgent war report.... Where? ”

In Chang'an City, the people who had just gotten up and were ready to go out to work, as well as those who were about to go to study or do things, saw the knight with such a special shape roaring past him, and his face suddenly changed greatly.

The people whispered and asked if they knew where the knight had come from.

They... I knew that it was an urgent battle report, but I didn't know the identity and words of the other party.

And the sons of the family frowned for the first time, looked at the flag behind the knight thoughtfully, and then quickly went back, and no longer did what they were going to do today.

As for the palace, Liu Xie, the emperor of the Han Dynasty with a tired face, has now relied on the spirit of decoction medicine for the fourth time to review and play a sparse performance.

Since Liu Bei's death, Liu Xie's health has also deteriorated.

Not to mention that he Liu Xie himself has a lot of problems, in the past few decades, he has been out on expeditions all the year round in the early years, and he has had a very difficult time sleeping in the open air.

Later, when he returned to the court, he was also not stable.

That day.... Tut-tut.... Staying up all night is even more common.

The iron body makes him consume like this, and this mind will not be able to support it.

What's more, in this era, even if there is a famous medical disciple on the side, what can you do, you don't want to die, and the Heavenly King Lao Tzu is here.

So the only thing he could do was to work hard to maintain and persist before the end of the war, so as not to cause chaos to Xu Shu, Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang and his son Liu Feng in front.....

At this time, beside him, there are Shi Tao, Meng Jian, Cui Jun and Pang Lin, who are also ranked in Jiuqing.

As for Na Fa Miao, Pang Hong, Dong He and other rising stars are now all above the court, and even help him deal with some government affairs by Liu Xie's side.

It can be regarded as a lesson for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in advance.

Today's court meeting is also extraordinarily long, and the most important thing is this war...

"Now the war has been going on to this point.

Although there is no shortage of food and grass under our rule, we can also support the army to fight for a long time.

But since it is impossible to continue to break through the defense line of the Cao army now, it is better to evacuate for the time being to see the aftermath! ”

Although Lai Min, the Taizhong doctor of the Han Dynasty, is not welcomed, his status and family background are still enough to ensure his influence and right to speak.

Recently, this war has been introduced to Chang'an, which has made many courtiers in this court also startled and uneasy.

This daily discussion of.... The intensity was comparable to that of a front-line military tent.

Especially the Doctor of the Five Classics led by Ji Min and some Qingliu, they even said that if they continue like this, they will be empty and useless!

Today, Nalaimin once again set off a frenzy of asking for the withdrawal of troops.

This made Liu Xie's head feel even more painful.

"Retire... What did the prime minister of the state say? ”

"The prime minister didn't reply!"

At this time, Prime Minister Si Zhi, Jiang Wan, who stayed in Chang'an, stood up directly and bowed to Liu Xie and said.

"It's just that before the expedition, the prime minister had a letter to Chang'an, this war is a matter of the world, and the troops must not be withdrawn unless absolutely necessary..."

"Confused!" At this time, Lai Min stood up again, and spat at Jiang Wan is mouth, "You are talking about soldiers at every turn, do you know that with this soldier, how many people in the world will be displaced?"

You always say that it is a matter of the world, but the world is still so clear now.

Zhuge ... Prime Minister Zhuge also had no military exploits on that front line, not to mention that he could not break through the Youzhou defense line, and he was almost attacked by someone in Yanmen.

At this time, Natuoba's forces were slightly merged with the state, and he could cut off the way back for Ma Chao and others at any time!

When the time comes, this Chang'an up and down, Yongliang land, won't every household be a pickaxe, and every household will wail?

Soldiers, murderous too! ”

Jiang Wan looked at the angry Lai Min in front of him, and couldn't help frowning, looking at this old guy really didn't want to deal with it.

If it weren't for the fact that this group of people is too famous and has a good family background, not to mention that Liu Xie wants to kill them, this Jiang Wan also wants to kill this group of guys!

During this time, the main battle faction led by Jiang Wan and others was about to die of sorrow in the face of this.

This old guy said that he was talking nonsense, what this guy said was reasonable, and he didn't withdraw his troops to swallow any money for military rations.

He simply doesn't like the military.

But if you listen to this carefully, isn't it pure nonsense?

Where can I hear this?

"Please don't be like this, this battlefield is changing rapidly, the prime minister is a famous general in the world, and he is the pillar of Zhenhai of my Han.

Now that he has been in the state for many years, he will definitely not let the slightest omission on this battlefield.

I hope the doctor can be a little..."

"We naturally believe in the Prime Minister's ability, but now this situation is probably beyond the Prime Minister's control.

We don't intend to embarrass the prime minister, it's just... I hope that the prime minister can suspend the war, and then return to Chang'an with the prince to discuss major matters!

That's all. ”

At this time, the Lingtai attendant Zhao Zhou also stood up directly, but he didn't say it as seriously and extreme as Lai Min.

Qian Zhou had said before that he hoped that Zhuge Liang and Liu Feng would not be conducive to continuing to stay outside, and now he was even more recalled.

The hidden meaning of those words is almost on the surface.

This majesty is about to die when he sees his body, and someone has to come back.

Could it be... Do these two still expect this majesty to continue to carry on?

And if His Majesty really can't bear it, then what's the matter, is he planning to leave the court empty?

Or are you planning to pull out a substitute from the current prince?

It's going to be a big deal.

I have to say that Qian Zhou's words are indeed more convincing than Na Laimin's incompetent rage.

Even as Zhuge Liang's spokesperson, Jiang Wan didn't know what to say in the face of Qian Zhou's request at this time.

And Liu Xie couldn't listen to it anymore after hearing this.

But when he just wanted to stand up and say that he was still in good health, but at the moment when he straightened his waist and didn't get up, a feeling of dizziness suddenly hit.

The next moment, a feeling of weakness made him kneel straight down.

If it weren't for the years of military career that allowed him to finally bear it in one breath, I am afraid that he would really be ashamed today.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough....." After a violent cough, Liu Xie, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, who was weak again, also gave up the idea of saying more to them, "Didn't the prince send a battle report before?"

said that the battlefield in Jiangdong has changed, and Wen Chang has now gone... What about the report of this battle, has it not yet been heard? ”

"It's... It's almost time to think so..."

"Report! The Jiangdong war report has now arrived outside the Weiyang Palace! ”

Just as Jiang Wan was estimating the time, a guard roared in with excitement.

Liu Xie's eyes lit up suddenly when he heard these words at this time, and he immediately asked people to present the battle report, and at the same time, in order to know the battle report faster.

He told the scout the situation on the battlefield directly.

“... General Wei Yan made a sneak attack on Wu County and killed Cao Wei's great Sima Cao Ren!

Under the city of Jianye, Cao Tai, the son of Cao Ren, was killed in battle, and Cao Wei's camp was burned... Many generals of Cao Wei were captured alive, and Chen Tai, the son of Chen Qun, fled in embarrassment.

In the wet dock, Lu Xun fought to the death, and finally died in battle.

He Qi Zhu was killed in battle, Quan Zong was captured alive, and his children such as Lu Yin, Lu Kai, Zhu Yi, Quan Ji and others surrendered..."

The battle situation in Jiangdong slowly came from the mouth of the scout, and a touch of joy appeared on everyone's faces.

Jiangdong is down, then you can directly send troops to Jianghuai, and attack Cao Xiu with Wang Ping and others, and break through the defense line of Cao's army is just around the corner.

And most importantly ....

"The prince is already on his way back to Chang'an!"

"Koto... The battle of Jiangdong is over..."Liu Xie looked at the battle report in his hand at this time, and the old eyes that had been dizzy tried to see every word on the battle report clearly.

When he saw Cao Ren die in battle, the Han emperor seemed to be touched by something in his heart.

For a while, he was frozen in place.

"Cao Ren... He's dead? Just dead? ”

At this time, Liu Xie's lips murmured, and the expression in his eyes was very entangled, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

"Your Majesty..."After seeing Liu Xie's appearance like this, Fu Wan, who was the leader of the officials, seemed to understand something, and hurriedly called out softly to Liu Xie.

Only this time, Liu Xie seemed to be really sluggish, and only slowly spoke after a long time.

"I'm a little tired... Since this war has been handed over to the prime minister, then I believe in the prime minister!

Go and tell the prince, don't be in a hurry... Along the way, the post stations and counties should remember to protect the safety of the prince.

And also... That's it! ”

In the end, Liu Xie seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he shook his head helplessly and got up directly, and walked towards the harem with the support of the eunuchs.

In the court, Lai Min and the others were a little shocked because of this battle report, and they wanted to say something at this time, but they didn't know what to say.

As for Jiang Wan and the others, they were even more overjoyed, knowing that this battle was already safe.

And among the hundred officials of the court, only the general of the Che Cai, who was the head of his relatives, frowned at this time, and left immediately after Liu Xie left.

Under the leadership of the guards, he also went to the harem, wanting to continue to meet Liu Xie.

He just looked at Liu Xie's appearance, and he felt that something was wrong in his heart.

In Liu Xie's bedroom in the Weiyang Palace, Liu Xie, who had just returned here, felt a burst of weakness and fell directly on the bed.

Even after Fu came to ask for a meeting, he couldn't get up, and let him enter his bedroom to meet him for the first time.

"Minister, I'll see you after I finish pouring..."

"That's it, I don't have the strength to entangle this etiquette with you..."Liu Xie, who was obviously weak, raised his hand to directly stop the finished salute, and then patted the edge of his bed, "Sit down... I'm tired! ”

“.... Only! Fu Wan was a little flustered by this scene, but after a moment of silence, he still cautiously sat down next to Liu Xie.

Since Liu Xie became the emperor of the Han Dynasty and brought the Han to hope again, although Fu Wan also relied on his sister and is now a very human minister, but the opportunity to face Liu Xie is becoming less and less.

And the relatives of the Fu family have done an excellent job, and they never dare to overstep the slightest, no matter how great the power of the Fu queen in the palace is.

Even if Fu Wan and Liu Xie went out, he would always step back one position, and he would hardly dare to look directly at Liu Xie's face.

Now at this time, the general Fu Wan realized that he didn't know what day it began, and Liu Xie's face was already old to this appearance.

"Your Majesty... It's so hard! ”

After hearing Fu Wan's words, Liu Xie directly waved his hand and laughed.

"I have spent more than half of my life just fighting outside to survive, and I finally met many virtuous people to have the strength I have today.

In addition, he was able to stabilize with Kong Ming, and with the road to rise, he also had a moment of rest.

For so many years before, it was Wen and Gongzhi, and now it is Kong Ming who is constantly working for me, and now it is time for me to do something for this big man.

Looked at home for so many years.... You said I did it, but it's okay? ”

"Your Majesty... Wise and Martial..."

At this time, Fu Wan lowered his head and lowered his eyes to say this sentence, but in exchange for that Liu Xie's indifferent sneer.
