Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1646

"Is it a war to unify the world?" Zhang Ning's bright eyes finally moved away from the medical book, looking at Mujing with sparkles, and asked in a low voice.

"Ok!"

Mu Jing nodded and said: "Once the war starts, it must be a decisive battle. They may want to delay it slowly, but I will not give them this chance. Even if we do our best, even if it will make our Ming economy go back a few years, I will I will fight to the end and completely put an end to this troubled world!"

"Troubled times..."

Zhang Ning's eyes were a little hazy: "Everyone says that this troubled world was caused by my father. In the past 20 years, countless people have been displaced and their families have been destroyed. It is all because of my father's uprising back then..."

"Troubled times will not be created because of one person's ambition!"

Mu Jing shook his head, and said softly: "You Ji, don't think too much, the great virtuous teacher may not be wrong, he just lost!"

The peasant uprising was just because of one person's lobbying, thinking too much.

It's not that I can't survive.

Who dares to work with his head pinned to his belt.

"I'm not trying to excuse my father!"

Zhang Ning's soft voice was a bit ethereal: "But I thought in my heart, if this troubled world can end, maybe my father can also die in peace!"

"There will be such a day!"

Mu Jing said very firmly: "At least two or three years, at most five years, this world will definitely be peaceful!"

He even released the hot weapon.

If you can't heal this troubled world.

He is so incompetent.

....................................

Time passed quickly, and October passed by in a blink of an eye. In November, the northern border was covered with heavy snow, and the entire city of Ye was covered with a layer of silver.

On the top of the city of Ye City, the Great Han Dragon Flag was fluttering.

This means that this city is already under the command of the Han court.

On the city wall, apart from the soldiers standing guard, there were also several generals walking side by side.

Jia Xu is the leader.

The generals on the left and right sides are Zhang Yan, Yan Xing, and Lu Bu who is taciturn.

Lu Bu was not in a good mood at this time.

He personally led the troops to the north, at least he could get some credit, but before he entered the city, the city was calmed down, which seemed like a waste of time.

And it was Jia Wenhe who was facing him, and he really didn't have a big temper.

Back then, under Dong Zhuo's tent, Li Wenyou and Jia Wenhe were the ones he couldn't provoke, so he was born with a sense of awe towards them.

"How's the situation in the north?"

Jia Xu gazed far to the north. At this time, layers of snowflakes were falling on the sky, which looked like a vast expanse.

"In the past two days, the snow has been too heavy, and the news from the scouts will come back slowly!" Yan Xing made great contributions, and he has some confidence in his heart, and he trusts Jia Xu more, and will do his best for what Jia Xu ordered.

"But judging from the previous news!"

Zhang Yan spoke.

In the battle of Yecheng, Zhang Yan paid huge casualties to win Yecheng. Yan Xing's meritorious deeds are only superficial, but the real credit belongs to the Black Mountain Army.

But Zhang Yan is not very at ease now.

Because the Montenegrin people and the main force of Montenegro are still in the north, he is very worried about the situation in Montenegro. Once the Yan army becomes angry and storms Montenegro, Montenegro may not be able to survive.

So he has been paying attention to the news from the north: "The main force of the Yan army will soon be under the city of Ye!"

"Liu Xuande led the army himself?"

Jia Xu squinted her eyes, and there was a sneer at the corner of her mouth.

"It must be!"

Zhang Yan nodded, and said: "Zhang Fei's main force has already entered Jizhou, Hejian, and Julu Land from Bingzhou. They have enough troops to stabilize themselves, and they will naturally go south in person!"

"General Fengxian!"

Jia Xu's eyes flickered, and he glanced at Lu Bu, with a smile on his face, and asked softly, "Do you think Liu Bei will attack the city?"

"do not know!"

Lu Bu thought for a while and said confidently: "But with the main force of our army in the city, even if he goes south to attack, I can resist for more than half a month. At that time, the king has already gone north, so there is really no need to be afraid of him!"

"What a remark!"

Jia Xu nodded. He also thought so. After Li Ru and Ju Yi were killed by them after defeating Yecheng, they had only a small number of troops left. Basically, their combat effectiveness was insufficient, and they had no chance to counterattack.

At this time, Lu Bu led his army to the north again and entered Yecheng. Even if Liu Bei's main force went south and besieged the city to death, it was useless. Basically, Yecheng could not be eaten.

The key is still entering the cold winter climate.

Under the cold winter, it is very difficult to fight. Let alone whether the preparations for cold clothes are sufficient or not, at the level of Yan State, it is impossible to equip all the soldiers with cold clothes.

The hand holding the weapon was even stiffer from the cold.

This kind of cold weather is actually the least suitable for combat.

So basically there is no suspense about the ownership of Yecheng.

Of course, Jia Xu is cautious and will not give the enemy any chance, even if there is a slight chance, he will block it.

Otherwise, this great achievement will become a negligence.

How many people capsize in the gutter just because they are full of self-confidence. He, Jia Xu, does not need to make meritorious deeds, but the most basic one is that he is not allowed to make mistakes.

"However, our scouts still have to stay far away to monitor all the movements in the north, and we are not allowed to miss any movement reports!"

Jia Xu said: "Ye City must belong to the imperial court, even if it is given away, it is the imperial court's giving, not us!"

"promise!"

The three generals surrendered.

......................................................

To the northeast of Yecheng, on the official road, there is a mountain less than a hundred miles away from Yecheng. On the side, there is a mountain stream, which can just avoid the snow.

Tens of thousands of generals and soldiers are camping here.

Above the camp, a large flag with the word Yan and a battle flag with the word Liu fluttered.

This is Liu Bei, the king of Yan.

Uncle Liu's name is known all over the world. King Yan ruled the north and swept his army southward. Wherever he went, everyone was welcome. This also depends on his title of uncle.

In the main camp of the Chinese Army, a brazier was burning. Liu Bei put his hands on the brazier and roasted for a while before he let his body warm up.

But there was a lot of sadness on his face.

He sighed and said: "Guan Jing, this young man in the army doesn't have enough cold clothes, he's shivering from the cold, and he doesn't know if he can survive this cold winter, it's really his fault!"

"Your Majesty, with the strength of the Yan Kingdom, it is difficult to gather all the cold clothes. Even if you have enough, it will be difficult to transport them to the south!"

Guan Jing said bitterly: "It will be difficult for us to find Quan Hanyi in a while!"

"Then you can't just watch like this!"

Liu Bei gritted his teeth.

The generals under his command lack cold clothes, so their combat effectiveness is naturally much worse. If they go south like this, what is there to see.

Although the war should be gone.

But the contest is indispensable.

Even if it is an alliance, it also depends on strength. Without absolute strength, no one can suppress anyone.

"My lord, I will try to find a way as soon as possible to prepare some cold clothes from Julu!" Guan Jing said, cupping his hands.

"Thank you!"

"I should do my best to serve the king!" After Guan Jing saluted, he turned and left, and hurriedly rode northward to find a way to Julu.

"Your Majesty, please see Mr. Li!"

"Let him in!"

"Yes!"

The personal guard lifted the curtain, and a gust of cold wind blew over, making Liu Bei tremble a little.

The scribe in Tsing Yi took off his bamboo hat, strode in, shook the snowflakes at the door, and then walked in again, bowing his hands together: "My subordinates pay homage to Your Majesty!"

"Great work, sir, no need to be polite!"

Corporal Liu Bei Lixian's etiquette is very good.

"This subordinate has failed His Majesty's expectations, and please His Majesty punish him!" The scribe in Tsing Yi knelt on the cold ground, arched his hands, and bowed to accept the crime.

In the battle of Yecheng, he was tricked by Jia Xu. Even if he wins over Ju Yi in advance, he failed in the end and was driven out of Yecheng in despair.

it's a shame.

But there is no way to wash it away. Now that Yecheng is being suppressed by heavy troops, he really has no ability to counterattack Yecheng, and in this weather, even if he has more thoughts and plans, he can't take back Yecheng.

"Sir, please get up!"

When Liu Bei saw it, his face turned pale with fright, and he hurried forward to invite the scribes in Tsing Yi with both hands.

This is not a play.

But really important.

The literati in Tsing Yi was Li Ru, a literati from Xiliang. After Dong Zhuo died in battle, he was a bereaved dog. He feigned death to escape.

But this does not affect Liu Bei's respect for him. Liu Bei raised his troops to fight against the Yellow Turban in his early years, and he was also a person who made military exploits, but all the time, it seems that he has achieved nothing.

After he summed it up, he always felt that he was missing a counselor who could advise him.

The appearance of Li Ru filled this position.

It is precisely because of Li Ru's planning that he has the power to dominate the Northland and has time to accumulate strength in the Northland.

So he has a lot of trust in Li Ru.

"Sir, this battle is not a crime, you have tried your best, but..." Liu Bei sighed: "The luck is bad, how can you imagine that he will turn his back!"

The battle in Yecheng was on Yan Xing's body, and Yan Xing's betrayal was the reason for their complete defeat.

"It's still not thoughtful!"

Li Ru said softly: "After all, they caught the flaw. Maybe at the beginning, a certain person shouldn't have expected it, and directly led the army to sweep past. Even if both sides are hurt, they must kill them all. Yecheng is in hand." Already!"

He was still slow to react.

In fact, it was mainly because of Pan Feng's disruption, otherwise he wouldn't have wasted so much time letting Ju Yi communicate with Pan Feng. Without Pan Feng's entanglement, Ju Yi did his best to defeat Zhang Yan, not just a problem.

Of course, these reasons are not enough to explain that his defeat in this battle is a defeat. Li Ru is not a person who cannot afford to lose.

"Sir, the defeat of Yecheng is nothing. Now that most of Hebei has been taken by me, the rest is just a discussion. No matter who owns Yecheng, we want to monopolize Hebei. What hope!"

Liu Bei comforted him with a few words. These words were not purely about safety. Hebei is so big that he wants to control the world alone. The Northland does not have such strength, so he will still spit out some sooner or later.

He thought for a while, and said seriously: "The most important thing now is Ju Yi, and whether Yuan Shang can control it?"

Ju Yi is a general. These days, Liu Bei is stretched. He didn't go to see him, but he just wanted to see Li Ru's mind.

"Ju Yi's problem is not big, he has nowhere to go, and this person did not surrender to us because of the temptation of gold, silver, and beauty!" Li Ru cupped his hands and said: "He is because of Yuan Shao's injustice to him. Luo Yang was full of vigor towards him, either beating him or scolding him, how could he be free from resentment for such a great general, so it was only natural for him to betray Yuan Benchu, and in this battle against Yecheng, he had every hope of continuing to defect Cao Wei, but fought bloody battles to the end, it can be seen that he is a determined person, who can be used, and his talent for commanding troops, looking at the king's command, the second general and the third general are not as good, and the two can't be compared unless they work together, it is a great talent !"

Ju Yi's greatest ability is not martial arts. In terms of martial arts, he and Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are just brothers, not even as ruthless as Guan Yu.

Guan Yu's method of dragging the sword lies in one stack and ruthlessness. The more you stack, the more ferocious the sword is, and the more fierce the fighting method is, the more ruthless it is, just like the Seven Injury Fist, which hurts others and also hurts oneself.

Therefore, Guan Yu's martial arts skills are among the best in the world. Fighting alone, Ju Yi may not be able to stop Guan Yu.

But if it's his turn to lead the army, Ju Yi is one of the top people in the world, otherwise he won't be able to hold the position of Hebei's number one general.

"In this way, this person is the most important person!" Liu Bei said in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, no matter how you say it, you must give him enough respect to make him die for your Majesty!" Li Ru said.

"I know it!" Liu Bei had an idea in his heart, and he asked again: "Where's Yuan Shang?"

"Governing the land of Hebei requires the prestige of the Yuan family. Supporting Yuan Shang can also give the king a legitimate reason to rule Hebei, so this person needs to be cautious!"

Li Ru said: "Although he is not very old, he is the son of Yuan Benchu ​​after all, and he is more or less capable. We can't let him betray us!"

"Then he will leave it to you!"

Liu Bei thought for a while and said.

He believed that Yuan Shang was a child, and he couldn't escape Li Ru's grasp. Liu Xie was so smart back then, so Li Ru controlled him to death.

If Dong Zhuo hadn't been too arrogant, he wouldn't have given Liu Xie any chance.

"I'm about to enter Yecheng soon, should I fight alone, or not?"

Liu Bei hesitated a little.

He wanted to fight, but didn't dare to fight.

Because Yecheng is Yecheng after all, and it represents the orthodox position in Hebei. If he doesn't fight, it would be unreasonable to travel such a long distance.

Fighting may not be the slightest, because he can't fight anymore. In this kind of weather, his current military strength and combat effectiveness will not be able to defeat Yecheng in three months.

Not to mention that the main force of the Wei army has already started to go north, once the Wei army arrives, he has no hope.

"We still have to fight!"

Li Ru suggested: "Your Majesty, after all, we have to show some strength. Now that the Ming Dynasty is powerful, our alliance can meet the enemy. There is no doubt about this, but we must clearly distinguish between priorities and not let the court take the lead." Orthodoxy yelled at me and us in the North, and there would be no chance to refute!"

"That being said, what if Cao Mengde goes north?"

Liu Bei narrowed his eyes and said, "Can Gu still fight?"
