Chapter 7 I forged the soul of Han in the Three Kingdoms
7.48 The world is unified and Cai Yan is out
The problem is, a lot of things don't change according to what some people think.

In the 13th year of Jian'an and the early summer of 208 AD, the 36 main force of the Northern Army officially went south, marking the beginning of the unification of the world.

In addition to the 36 field troops as the main force, Deng Feng also arranged more than [-] security troops to appease the local area after the territory was secured. These people started training two years ago and are now ready.

On the eastern front, 12 troops led by Zhang Liao, the No. 1 military commander in the North, swept across the entire territory of Xuzhou. Even Xiapi, the administrative center, could not sustain it for more than three days. Of course, the main reason was that the powerful Chen and Mi families in Xuzhou All chose to surrender.

They secretly contacted the Northern Army and secretly opened the city gate, but at the same time they also opened the other gate. Xia Houyuan, the Xuzhou shepherd arranged by Cao Cao, fled in embarrassment.

However, in just over three months, Cao Cao lost all of Xuzhou. Most of this time was actually spent by the Northern Army sorting out the place while marching.

After Xuzhou was captured, the main force stopped at the junction with the Jiangdong forces, basically waiting for orders to go south at any time.

So much so that Sun Ce knew that conflict with the Northland was unlikely for the time being, so he still mobilized almost all of his army elites to the front line to confront the 12 main field troops of the Northland Army.

On the western front, which was actually the main line, Deng Feng personally led the attack and no longer concealed his identity as a practitioner.

Every time you arrive at a city, use a bronze talisman to explode in front of the city gate, let the defenders see the power, and then go to the city gate at a speed of almost teleportation, first drive away the people inside, and then blow up the city gate. The gate, the army swarmed in, and the pacification would be completed soon.

During this period, not everyone tried to resist. For example, Cao Cao's famous generals Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, etc. all chose to fight, but they were all easily defeated and captured alive by the generals who had practiced Deng Feng's Kung Fu for many years.

In less than half a year, more than 20 main troops under Deng Feng surrounded Xiangyang, Cao Cao's seat of government.

Early November of the 13th year of Jian'an.

In the open space in front of Xiangyang City Gate, under a large pergola, there is a very ordinary small square table, two matzas, four very ordinary side dishes, and a pot of old wine that is not very good.

Deng Feng and Cao Cao, the two giants who determined the general trend of the world, raised their glasses to each other in the already biting north wind. The little fox behind him, who was the waiter, quickly stepped forward to fill the two glasses because there was no space around the pergola. One person, the nearest of the army is also three miles away.

The little fox was the only witness to the private conversation between the two, and this meeting was also requested by Cao Cao.

"I haven't seen you for 18 years. General Zhengbei's majesty is still as strong as before. I really envy Cao Cao!" Cao Cao's face has shown an obvious old look. Although he looks only in his 40s, for Cao Cao who is actually over half a century old It's really good.

But compared to Deng Feng's appearance, which looks more than 20 years old, he couldn't calm down no matter what, "Mrs. Hu's style remains the same, which made Cao think it was jujube!"

"Mengde looks just a little bit old. Can you still not see through the saying that when you are forty, you will not be confused and when you are fifty, you will know your destiny?" Deng Feng said with a smile.

"Destiny? If I had believed in destiny, I would have died a long time ago." Cao Cao snorted disdainfully and drank the old wine in his glass. "I have heard for a long time that General Zhengbei is not good at food and does not pay attention to beautiful clothes. I still Thought it was intentional.

I just found out today that you, the general who has dominated the world for twenty years, cannot eat or drink as well as I do. "

"Practice people, don't talk so much. The future is still far away, so why bother worrying about trivial matters." Deng Feng glared at Cao Cao helplessly. At this time, he still didn't forget to take advantage of his words.

"Oh? I've heard that Deng Zhengbei spent 14 years recovering from his injuries and even gave up his position to his son. If he joins the army today, isn't he really laying a foundation for his children and grandchildren before he dies?" Cao Cao looked Deng Feng up and down and asked suspiciously.

"To be honest, I didn't spread this rumor. I just took advantage of it. If I was seriously injured and on the verge of death, do you think I could still be in this state?" Deng Feng didn't expect that after so many years, this rumor would actually turn out to be true. still.

"There are rumors that you have actually passed your sixtieth birthday a long time ago, and you are only able to maintain your current appearance because of your successful practice, right?" It seems that Cao Cao is really jealous of Deng Feng's current state.

"Sixty years old? Although I really can't remember how old I am, let alone sixty years old, I may not be able to reach eighty. Even if I am not a hundred years old, I won't be far behind."

Deng Feng snorted angrily, "Except for Yan'er, the rest of our family are already considered old. Little Fox is actually the younger one in our family, and he has already passed his sixties now."

"Someone told me that Mrs. Hu is actually a fox demon who specifically bewitched you. She is actually the second nine-tailed fox Daji who wants to confuse the world, right?" Cao Cao asked with a serious expression.

"If you don't mind, can you tell me about the source of the information?" Deng Feng was really surprised. Even in the entire world of Gao Wu's "Three Kingdoms", Deng Feng had only told Cai Yan about the little fox, and she would never leak the secrets indiscriminately.

"It doesn't matter. It's what Sima Yi said. He is the representative of the Sima family here." Cao Cao did not mean to keep it secret. "It seems that the information is true?"

"Sima Yi? It's interesting. It's really interesting." Deng Feng had been secretly investigating when Zuo Ci was there, but he didn't find out any information. Otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed in the world of "Three Kingdoms" for so long.

Now we finally have a clue, because although this world has extremely high spiritual energy, it does not have many elements of cultivation, and there are no demons and ghosts. Normally, apart from various myths and legends, there should be no demon elements.

Sima Yi had revealed the identity of the little fox so confidently, so even if it wasn't the new Zuo Ci soul container, it shouldn't be too far away.

"What? Isn't it convenient for General Zhengbei to tell you?" Cao Cao asked.

"It's not too accurate. The little fox is actually only in the three-tailed state, and has not yet broken through the four-tailed state." Deng Feng nodded to Qingfeng, and she immediately turned lightly and jumped into Deng Feng's arms, also turning into the original form of the three-tailed fox.

Just because of the increase in her cultivation, she can now control her body shape more effectively, so that she now looks like a little fox with a body length of thirty years and a tail of about the same length. She looks so cute that you can't wait to put it down. After transforming into her original form, she still Don't forget to nod to Cao Cao.

"This—" Even with Cao Cao's psychological quality, he still showed a terrified expression, but he quickly returned to normal, "Forget it, it seems that your Deng family is really a practice, and I don't have any hope. General Bei left a way for me, the Cao family, to survive."

"What does Meng De mean by this?" Deng Feng grabbed Cao Cao's wrist because he unabashedly took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, took out a red-looking pill and was about to take it.

"Why, can I survive?" Cao Cao asked curiously.

"Why should I kill you?" Deng Feng wordlessly took the poison pill from him, looked at it a few times and threw it into the dust. "It's not like you can do anything bad."

"Aren't you afraid that I or my descendants will take advantage of you to rebel a hundred years later, or that someone will use my name to rebel?" Cao Cao was really curious, because if it were him, he would never leave any trouble.

"Within five years, the men of the Cao family must live in the capital. After five years, you are all free to do whatever you want." Deng Feng really didn't care and even joked in a light tone.

"You can just go back to your hometown in Yanzhou when the time comes. I can accept it if you want to cause trouble. If you can cause trouble that affects more than one county, I can also promise to spare your life."

"It seems that the iron-barrel rumors in the northern states are really groundless, and not without reason!" Cao Cao sighed, "In other words, are you sure that you can achieve great governance in the world within five years?"

"It's not a big deal, but it's okay to suffocate all the ambitious people to death." Deng Feng shrugged and mocked him without hesitation.

“On the grasslands now, there are actually quite a few ambitious people who want to restore the Xianbei people, including the Murong clan, Kebineng and Yufuluo who want to restore the Huns, and the ambitious people who want to restore the Qiang people.

I knew all this, but never took it seriously.As long as the common people live a good life, even if they only see the hope of a good life, careerists will have no hope of having any market. "

"I am ashamed of myself for this." Cao Cao sighed helplessly, "But of course you won't be afraid now, but how can you guarantee that your descendants will be fine too?"

"Did you see that I'm going to govern the country?" Deng Feng gave him an angry look, "No matter how wise a person or family is at the beginning, don't expect it to go on for more than ten generations without problems.

Therefore, the best way is to arrange the system at the beginning, and then put yourself outside the system, whether it is running the country or the army, and leave it to the people below. "Aren't you afraid that someone will rebel?" "Cao Cao doesn't believe it at all. His suspicious character is famous throughout real history.

"Two things must be grasped. One is military power. The army must swear allegiance to the emperor at all times. The other is the combat effectiveness of the army. It is guaranteed to have an undefeated and strong army that can fight and win wars at all times. These two things must be grasped well. Whoever touches whom die."

Deng Feng thought of the fate of the army after the Tang Dynasty when it was handed over to civil servants. The whole Song Dynasty and the middle and late Ming Dynasty were a bloody lesson. Burial with the whole family!"

"That's it!" Cao Cao drank the old wine in one gulp, stood up and left.

On November 13th of the [-]th year of Jian'an, Cao Cao officially announced his surrender and led his entire family to settle in the capital.

In return, Deng Feng announced that he would no longer pursue Cao's previous crimes and would relax restrictions on Cao five years later.All Cao's talents are retained in other places and arranged as appropriate.

The army was reorganized immediately, and at the same time, it fully implemented various policies of the North in the original Cao Cao territory.

In the spring of the 14th year of Jian'an, the Northland Navy mobilized across the board and entered the Yangtze River Basin. A decisive battle broke out with the Jiangdong Navy in the Jianye waters. It ended with the complete annihilation of the Jiangdong Navy and the death of Governor Zhou Yu on the spot in a rage.

On April 14th of the [-]th year of Jian'an, Sun Ce knelt down in front of the gate of Jianye City and asked Deng Feng to surrender. Sun Shangxiang went to Deng Feng with tears in his eyes and interceded for the Sun family. Deng Feng accepted the surrender and stepped forward to surrender in person. Unlocking Sun Ce's restraints, he lifted up the kneeling Jiangdong ministers one by one.

After that, the Sun family also moved to the capital, and received the same treatment as the Cao family. Northern troops stationed in various places in Jiangdong and gradually cleaned up the place.

On January 15, the [-]th year of Jian'an, Liu Bei, who had retreated to Shu, announced to the world that on the grounds that the Young Emperor of the Han Dynasty had abdicated and the throne of the Han Dynasty was vacant, as a descendant of Prince Jing of Zhongshan, he formally offered sacrifices to heaven and proclaimed himself emperor.

The country name is still Han, known as Shu Han in history, with Zhuge Liang as the prime minister and Pang Tong as the military division in charge of military and political affairs, and everyone under his command has his own rewards.

In the autumn of the 15th year of Jian'an, the Northern Army, which had basically completed local combing, officially attacked Hanzhong from the northwest of Chang'an and began to pacify Shu.It lasted less than half a year, and Chengdu was invaded at the end of that year. The Shu Han Kingdom was officially destroyed in just one year.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei died in battle, Liu Bei and his remaining family members set fire to his own palace and died, Pang Tong was hit by a stray arrow and died during the battle, and Zhuge Liang disappeared after the city of Chengdu was broken.

Since then, the world has been officially restored to unity.

On January 16, the [-]th year of Jian'an, Deng Chengye ascended the throne in the capital to worship heaven. His country was named Hua, and his reign was changed to Zhangwu, marking the first year of Zhangwu.

Liu Braid, the former young emperor of the Han Dynasty, knelt three times and kowtowed nine times to present a congratulatory form, and personally burned the Hua Dynasty's celestial rites.

His father, Deng Feng, was the Supreme Emperor, his mother, Long Shi, was the Empress Dowager, his first wife, Sun Shi, Shang Xiang, was the Empress, and the second wife, Zhen Shi Mi, was the Concubine Li.

After the founding of the Hua Dynasty, except for Cai Yan, who was officially granted the title of prime minister and could hardly find anyone all day long, Deng Feng and his sisters all withdrew from the imperial system and even moved their residences to a different place in a small valley on the outskirts of the capital. In the courtyard.

Starting from the first year of Zhangwu, Deng Chengye made every effort to promote various policies that had been established long ago, especially road construction, which was elevated to the first priority.

As a result, for more than 20 years, there were no prime-age prisoners in the prisons of various states and counties throughout the Chinese Dynasty, neither men nor women.

All criminals were sent to reeducation through labor, and the content was to build roads. Similar content was also added - dredging rivers and developing offshore transportation.

The army, mainly the public security forces, began to suppress bandits and chaos on the spot, brutally attacking all unofficial armed forces.

Such as bandits, bandits, pirates, pirates, private soldiers of aristocratic families, clan armed forces, self-defense groups, evil gangs, etc., once discovered, they will all be eliminated without discussion or negotiation, and they will either surrender or die.

This operation took nearly ten years and was not completed until the end of the ninth year of Zhangwu.

These two major tasks almost drained the Chinese treasury, so much so that the royal family had to lend more than [-]% of its income to the court every year to maintain the operation of various departments.

But everyone knows that once these tasks are completed, the entire Han family will benefit, and it is a century-long and millennium-long plan.

At the same time, the Chinese army, or as Deng Feng called it, the Han army's field troops began to gradually sweep through the surrounding areas, pacifying the remaining hostile foreign forces such as Sanhan, Baiyue, Shanyue, Nanman and other tribes one by one.

To the north, the peninsula was officially pacified, and the national boundary in the north was advanced to a level comparable to reality. In the south, it stopped at the Mekong River Basin in reality. To the west, it controlled a small half of the Xinjiang province, but it did not advance towards the roof of the world in reality.

It's not that we don't want to continue fighting, but given the conditions of this era, we can't support the logistics if we continue to fight. Even if the southern expedition to Baiyue mainly relies on sea transportation, the consumption is still too high. In the end, Deng Feng personally dissuaded those who wanted to continue. Deng Chengye was beaten.

As time went by, Deng Feng also met many middle and late civil servants and generals in the original work of "Three Kingdoms", such as Lu Xun of the Lu family in Lujiang, Jiang Wei of the Eight Expeditions in the Central Plains, Zhong Hui, Deng Ai and others in the late Wei Dynasty.

But Deng Feng didn't take them too seriously and only used them as ordinary talents. At this time, the Hua Dynasty no longer needed to consider the issue of rebellion.

Of course, all of the above are things to come.

After Zhangwu's four years and three years of serving as prime minister, Cai Yan finally realized his identity, almost gritted his teeth and resigned from his post, returned to the Deng family courtyard, and became Deng Feng's little wife again.

What is extremely painful is that Cai Yan has reached the "advanced age" of 40 years old at this time, but he still has not consummated his marriage with Deng Feng, and has been a concubine in name only for 25 years.

It's really not that Deng Feng didn't want her. At first, he thought she was too young. Later, Deng Feng was seriously injured and recuperated. After he came back from the mountain, he only led his army to pacify the world. Cai Yan was the de facto prime minister of the dynasty.

The two of them could see each other for less than a month in a year. The long-term "tacit understanding of work" made the two of them unable to think of anything about men and women at all. Deng Feng did not mention it because of other considerations.

It was not until Sun Shangxiang, who was already thirty years old, reminded Cai Yan that she finally remembered that she was still Deng Feng's concubine and Deng Chengye's concubine.

Even though she and Deng Chengye met almost every day, they always followed the etiquette of monarchs and ministers and did not remember the family relationship at all.

Or to put it in a more unpleasant way, Cai Yan has been a high-ranking official for more than 20 years and has completely "drifted". He has forgotten his original intention of following Deng Feng.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Deng Feng, because this is actually a test he gave Cai Yan. After all, in the cruel reincarnation space, if a person cannot actively pursue the improvement of strength, he will soon be eliminated by the new plot world.

Judging from the current results, it can only be said that Cai Yan is barely qualified, but it is only "the result is barely qualified", and the intermediate process is simply useless.

Deng Feng passed on "Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu" and "Shangqing Dao Zhen Jing" to Cai Yan after she got started, but until now, her strength is only innate, or she has just reached the level of a grandmaster in the world of martial arts. level.

In such a world where the spiritual energy density is higher than that of low-level cultivation planes, such a cultivation speed is simply rubbish. Even Zhang Lingxia in the "Heroes" world is not much slower than her.

What's more, Cai Yan's qualifications are really high, but she has only achieved this in nearly 20 years. It can only be said that she has no enthusiasm at all for the pursuit of personal strength.

Even though she knew this situation, Deng Feng didn't say a word in the middle. There was no doubt that she had been given up.
