Ma Yun was angry. Very serious consequences. She immediately ordered the suspension of Gan Ning's powers. Xu Chu is acting as the captain of the navy. And write this matter in the official letter sent to Chang'an. Let Liu Xin decide. Immediately afterwards. Ma Yun ordered to be transferred back from Wuguan. Forty thousand First Corps soldiers who are preparing to go to Changke County. Set aside 20,000 to transfer to Changsha. Directed by Xu Chu. We must rescue Ganning’s 20,000 naval forces safely back to Changsha.
After Xu Chu received the order. Immediately took the twenty thousand infantry to Yuzhang. Saw Cheng Pu. Only then knew that Gan Ning had gone to Kuaiji to pursue Yan Baihu. I had to confess a few words in a hurry. And led the army to Kuaiji. Came to the city of Kuaiji. However, there was a "Chinese" flag on the head of the city. It is clearly the banner of the Jingzhou navy. But look at the armor of those soldiers, but it doesn't look like it.
Hesitating. The gate opens. A group of people had already greeted him. The leader of the generals danced with a sword. Loudly shouted: "Kuiji City is now under the jurisdiction of Master Mu Liu of Jingzhou. Who is the one to come. You should report your name quickly."
Xu Chu saw this person eight feet long. Strange appearance. But I have never seen it before. Can't help but shout: "I am the flying tiger's personal guard leader Xu Chu. Who are you. How dare to pretend to be my elder brother's subordinate."
The Feihu Guards are one of Liu Xin's most elite troops. The name is very loud. The man was taken aback. I saw the attire of the soldiers behind Xu Chu again. It is no different from the army led by Gan Ning. Hastily turned over and dismounted. He folded his hands and said: "The last general Dong Xi, see the general. The last general was originally a person under the command of the prefect of Kuaiji, Wang Lang. He has now abandoned the secret to the city. Today, he is commanded by General Gan to guard the city. By no means impersonating. Please be aware of the military."
Xu Chu did not dare to be careless. Lift the broadsword lightly. Shen Sheng said, "Where is Xingba? Why don't you come out to see me."
Dong Xi saw him call out Gan Ning's words. It is more certain. He clasped his fists and said: "General Gan stayed at the end and defended the city with Yu Juncheng. He led his army to Wu Jun. The general came from a long way. You can enter the city for a description."
Although Xu Chu saw his words sincerely. But still dare not rest assured. At a glance, I saw many big cars parked inside the city gate. The big knife pointed there. He asked: "You have so many vehicles in your city. Where do you want to go."
Talking. A man came on horseback in the city. The horse that went straight to Xu Chu jumped off. Towards Xu Chu Shili said: "The subordinate Cheng Yu of Kuaiji County turned to see the general. These vehicles are loaded with grain and grass. The subordinates collected from the city and transported them to the front line of Wu County."
Xu Chu said in a deep voice, "Since you have already worked for my elder brother. But you know that privately levying food and grass. The crime of disturbing the people is inexcusable."
Yu Fan and Dong Xi looked at each other. After a while, he said: "This matter has been reported to General Gan. He has promised to wait for the war. He will pay the price again."
Xu Chu heard this. I believe that they have really surrendered. So he dropped the big knife in his hand. Nodded and said: "It's so good. You should make it clear that the account book is recorded. There must not be any incidents of forcible grabbing and private pockets. Otherwise. I recognize you. The knife in my hand does not recognize you. Two people. This is Kuaiji. The city will be handed over to you. I will report to the Lord in the future. I will remember you. Xu will go to Wu County to help each other and prosper. Please also point out the path."
Yu Fan hurriedly said, "General, go slowly. Yu has something to ask. Although Kuaiji has already returned to Master Liu, the surrounding counties have not recovered. Wang Lang is also missing. There have been many bandits and water bandits in the south of the Yangtze River recently. Yu A certain amount of food and grass has been collected. Zhengshou can't transport it to Wu County. Since the general intends to go to Wu County, I wonder if he can ask the general to send a team of people to escort it."
Xu Chu groaned: "This general is here. The army carries a large amount of grain and grass. It is enough to support Xingba. The grain and grass collected by the husband are temporarily stored in the city. Just for emergencies. It's just that Xingba behaves so recklessly. No. Eliminate the banditry and march directly into Wu County. Don’t be afraid of being cut off. Let’s do this. I’ll leave a team. You will wait for some guides who are familiar with the path. You will surely kill Wang Lang and the bandits and bandits in one fell swoop."
This is because Xu Chu doesn't know much about Gan Ning. This kind of thought came into being. Gan Ning was originally a pirate on the Yangtze River. Lived a life of licking blood with a knife head for many years. Naturally, he also figured out his own way of survival and fighting. Otherwise, it will not be possible to dominate the upper and middle reaches of the Yangtze River for many years. When he was encircled by officers and soldiers, or when he was in fire with other thieves. The usual practice is to capture the thieves and the king. Face the enemy fleet. Concentrate only on attacking the ship on which the opposing leader is riding. Every time I can receive a miraculous effect. And it has been tried and tested. This time he did the same trick again. Attack the county first. Cut its head. Then deal with Yu Zhong. It's just that the situation is a little different from the past. Wang Lang and Yan Baihu escaped.
Yu Fan heard that Xu Chu wanted to keep some soldiers and Ma Qing to suppress the bandits. Hurry up and said: "The general Mingjian. The south of the Yangtze River is very sparsely populated. These bandits and pirates will serve the people when they enter. If they come out, they will be bandits. The use of force alone may be inexhaustible. As long as the people of the neighboring villages can have enough food and clothing. The thief will naturally disappear without a trace."
Xu Chu lowered his head and meditated for a moment and said: "Xu is just a martial artist. Xu does not understand what Mr. Yu said. But my elder brother and sister-in-law love to listen to these things the most. Why don't I send some people to escort Mr. to Xiangyang. Mr. can speak in person. Let my sister-in-law know how to deal with them. It's up to my sister-in-law to decide."
Seeing Yu turned his face hesitated. Xu Chu continued: "Mr. Yu. My sister-in-law is not an ordinary weak woman. She knows astronomy and geography. Even Mr. Cai Boxie, who is well-known in the world, respects her for three points. My eldest brother is still in Chang'an. . If you rush over. It takes a lot of time to come and go. You can tell these truths to my sister-in-law. It’s the same."
Cai Yong was exiled to the south of the Yangtze River. He once stayed in Kuaiji and Wu County. Even if Yu Fan hadn't seen him in person. I have also heard of his reputation. Since even such a respected old gentleman has respect for Mrs. Zhou Mu. There must be something extraordinary about that lady. Thought of this. Yu Fan quickly put away his contempt. He folded his hands and said: "So. Just follow your orders."
Now Wuguan has been overcome. The land of Guanzhong also gradually returned to calm. Various post stations along the way are properly set up. Communication from Xiangyang to Chang'an has returned to normal. Ma Yun responded with a letter the night he received Liu Xin's letter. Sent to Chang'an with the official letter.
Chang'an Taishi Mansion has now become Liu Xin's temporary residence. but. Liu Xin also only occupies a small part of it. Including the clean room where he rests daily. A study room. There is also a small garden. But the furniture in the room has changed a lot. Under Liu Xin's personal guidance. A few carpenters just recruited. Also hit a few wooden chairs. A desk. Even the dining table was replaced with a square table of Eight Immortals.
Cheng Yu sat opposite Liu Xin. At a glance, I saw four Arabic numerals written on the private letter spread on the desk. But puzzled. It's not that Cheng Yu has a hobby of peeking at other people's letters. It was indeed Liu Xinman who casually spread the letter from the family on the desk. Only four Arab numbers "1314" were written on a large piece of paper. Takes up more than half of the entire paper. Cheng Yu couldn't avoid it even if he didn't want to see the content. Serving Liu Xin's men for so long. He has known Arabic numerals a long time ago. And it also feels very easy to use. But I can't figure out what the only four numbers in this letter represent. Of course. He did not gossip enough to inquire about the whispers between husband and wife.
Liu Xin looked at the official letter. His face gradually became serious. If not, he had already won Guanzhong and Wuguan. Opened up the road with Xiangyang. Liu Dan and Meng Huo suddenly attacked Zangke. It is indeed possible that he will fall into a situation where he is attacked by the enemy.
Received the official letter handed over by Liu Xin. Cheng Yu hurriedly read it and passed it to Guo Jia. Guo Jia saw what Jushou had proposed to make Liu Xinna Zhu Rong a concubine. Then they went to Central South to promote the policies of the Hanman family. He touched his palm and laughed and said: "Mr. Gongyu's plan is very good. His subordinates traveled around in the past. He also visited the Zhongnan area. Knowing what Vulcan represents in the minds of the barbarian. If the lord is married to the descendants of Vulcan. He. The worry barbarians don't attach."
Liu Xin hasn't seen Zhu Rong for more than three years. According to Ma Yun's letter. The little girl back then is now taller. He couldn't help but think of the heavyweight judo players on the field of later generations. Can't help but shiver. Waved his hand and said: "How can a national event be pinned on a marriage? It's too childish. I won't talk about it again later."
This is what Liu Xin said. Coming from later generations, he does not believe that a nation can be bought off through a marriage. He believes that common interests can keep everyone together. Seeing Guo Jia seems to want to say more. Liu Xin gave a dry cough. Continue to say: "Fengxiao. Since you have been to the Zhongnan area. I will send you to Zangke via Hanzhong. Help Zilong and Evil come to them to resist Menghuo. If you have a chance, march into the four counties of Zhongnan. If you don't have a chance, just hold on to it. Zangke is a great accomplishment."
Guo Jia said, "The subordinates will obey the orders of the chief general. There is one more thing under the subordinates. Now the chief governs the two states of Jing and Yi. He is in charge of most of the divisions. Within a few days, Liangzhou will also be under the jurisdiction of the chief. The lord now only lives in Jingzhou. I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the people. It is difficult to accept the hearts of the people of the states. It is heard that Cao Cao has already proclaimed himself the prime minister. Yuan Shao also accepted Liu Xie's edict. As a general, his ambitions are clear. Ruo Jie. Since the lord no longer recognizes the emperor Liu Xie, then there is no master. Why not the lord..."
Liu Xin understood what Guo Jia meant. He is trying to persuade himself to take the post in time. Quickly raised his hand to stop his words. Said: "Feng Xiao. Liu already has something to say. When the world is set, another Mingjun will be established. Now although the world is no owner. But as long as I wait for my loyalty, why not worry about the people's unwillingness to return. The top priority. The people's livelihood should be the first priority. The people have plenty of food and clothing. The people in Hanzhong have always been in hardship. All parts of Sili have suffered from Dong Zhuo. How to make them rich. We should consider how to live a good life."
Is negotiating. Another letter from Xu Huang was delivered from Luoyang. It is said that Hulaoguan has an empty city left. Si Li's land is also in the bag. Cao Cao's entire army retreated to Puyang. Please tell me if you want to take advantage of the victory.
