The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 449 Entering Hulao Pass

Luoyang fell, Wei State lost a city, and the ruling and opposition parties once again showed a decadent trend.Few people supported the fight to the death with Long Fei, and more people began to agree with Dong Zhao's proposal.Long Fei was Wei Guo's nightmare, he stepped forward, Wei Guo took a step back, the people sent to Jiangdong had already returned, Sun Quan had no intention of joining forces at all, Sun Quan was more worried about Long Fei than Cao Cao.

Cao Cao sighed: "Retire to protect ourselves. I don't know how long we can keep it. I have never encountered such a big defeat since I started my army!"

"Your Majesty!" Liu Ye went out to play and said, "I think that Long Fei attacked our Wei country this time only because Sima Yi only cares about it. If His Majesty sends an envoy to Luoyang to meet Long Fei and is willing to send Sima Yi away, Long Fei will be gone. Excuses, naturally they won’t be invading the country with troops!”

"Confused!" Dong Zhao glared at Liu Ye: "This is a statement that is harmful to the country. Your Majesty must not believe it. Long Fei has great ambitions. How could he strike down on Wei Guo for such a trivial matter? Sima Yi's matter is just an excuse. There are so many excuses to find an army! Your Majesty can quickly withdraw the soldiers from Henan to Hebei, and fight Long Fei, maybe there is still hope, and you must not stop the army to make peace!"

Jiang Ji waited for a long time, saw that no one spoke, and then said: "Master Liu Ye's words may not be unreliable, Long Fei and His Majesty are related by marriage, if we can get the help of the second princess, maybe things will be done!"

Cao Cao took a deep breath and looked at Cheng Yu.Ever since he became emperor, Cheng Yu said less and less. Generally speaking, Cheng Yu would never interrupt if he didn't ask.From the very beginning, when Long Fei became the emperor of the Tianlong Empire under Zen, and Cao Cao couldn't bear it and wanted to become emperor, Cheng Yu became taciturn.Cheng Yu didn't advocate proclaiming himself emperor, he still had some affection for the Han Dynasty, he was considered the most loyal Han Dynasty in the world.

Cao Cao asked, "What does Zhongde think I should do?" Cao Cao never praised me in front of Cheng Yu, and this time the conflict between the monarch and his ministers became more intensified. Cheng Yu is his own think tank and cannot be lost.

Cheng Yu pondered for a long time before saying: "Your Majesty should prepare with both hands. While talking with Long Fei, withdraw troops to protect yourself. Last time, I advised His Majesty to prepare with both hands. Your Majesty wants to watch the battle in Luoyang. Now that the situation is clear, there is no need to read it again." Bar?"

Cao Cao nodded slightly: "Okay! Since Zhong De thinks so, then prepare with both hands. Order Jiang Ji to go to Luoyang to meet Long Fei, and Liu Ye to go to Xiangyang to meet my Jie'er. I hope it will be useful. At the same time, order Henan The army and horses of all states, regardless of government soldiers, county soldiers, and state soldiers, immediately withdraw to Hebei, and those who disobey the order will be executed!"

Cao Pi suddenly said: "Father, what will Xuzhou do after Henan retreats? Zang Ba has never obeyed our orders. I am worried that he will take the opportunity to rebel."

"I can't care about that much anymore, let him go!" Cao Cao felt helpless: "Sun Quan has already spotted Xuzhou, and sooner or later he will send troops. How could Long Fei allow Sun Quan to send troops, and it just happens to be our help."

After resting in Luoyang for two days, the Political Council sent someone to take over Luoyang.In order to adapt to his own expansion, Long Fei deliberately formulated a method and process for the military and government to take over the local area, and conducted a pilot in Yizhou, which was quite successful.Later, Xiliang tried this model again and achieved good results.In this way, Long Fei stipulated this process in the form of a parliament, and all the places won will be received in this way.

First, dispatch police to maintain local law and order.In addition, to prepare for the establishment of the government, the Xiangyang Political Council sent people to appoint local officials to allocate money and food, and the local people carried out production and self-help in the form of work instead of relief.It also built roads, medical buildings, and schools locally, and agreed that merchants would occupy unowned land in the city by means of capital contributions to build shops.All actions can take as long as one year and as little as half a year to achieve results.

As the first big city occupied by the Tianlong Empire, Luoyang was also the capital of the previous dynasty.The Political Council attached great importance to it and dispatched capable officers to carry out renovations. In just ten days, the streets of Luoyang have shown a thriving scene.The common people worked hard to rebuild their homes, and the most well-informed businessmen gathered in Luoyang. Many people believed that Luoyang would embark on its own glorious path in a short time.

Long Fei took Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others around the street.Look at the repair of the city wall, look at the reconstruction of the houses facing the street, and go to a place where refugees are temporarily resettled.Some people say yes to Long Fei, saying that Long Fei has brought him a happy life.Some people said it was not good, if it hadn't been for the arrival of the dragon army, their houses would not have been destroyed and their families would have died tragically.Of course, there are still more people who say yes.

On the way back, the businessmen from Jingzhou greeted Long Fei one after another, as if they were meeting friends from the neighbourhood, with affection and enthusiasm.At the kind invitation of a shop owner, Long Fei approached the shop he had just built.At first glance, it looks like a typical restaurant with two floors. It was remodeled on the basis of the original house. The stairs are in the building. The owner and a few guys are renovating it.

"Not bad! This place should cost a lot of money once, right?" Long Fei asked with a smile.

The shopkeeper chuckled: "Your Majesty, of course it's free!"

Speaking of doing business now, the owner is very happy.In the previous dynasty, merchants were the most inferior profession, even worse than those who did coolies.But now they can't get through. Long Fei's policy of supporting business has really benefited them, and his identity as a businessman can also be shown off on the table.A few days ago, the owner of the shop boasted with a few colleagues who came from Jingzhou that he wanted to open the shop outside the Great Wall.

After hearing what the store manager said, Long Fei smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, as long as you have a request, I will definitely support it. When the time comes, when our Long Army wins Beyond the Great Wall, don't say you don't want to go."

While chatting happily, a fast horse galloped across the street outside the door.While running, the knight yelled loudly for pedestrians to make way.Everyone was attracted by the knight.Xu Chu looked at it and said, "Your Majesty, there should be an urgent military situation. There are three red command flags on the back of the messenger!"

The military situation is divided into three types: slow, fast, and urgent.They are divided into green, yellow and red respectively, and each is divided into three grades.The three red command flags were the most urgent ones, either they were attacked somewhere, or they were lost somewhere.The store manager also served as a soldier in Jingzhou before, so he knows the seriousness.Hastily said: "Your Majesty, the important matter is important, I will invite you brothers to drink after finishing the deal!"

Leaving the restaurant under renovation, Long Fei got on his horse and followed the footsteps of the messenger into the subordinate yamen.It was indeed an urgent military situation, and it was sent from Caimulberry. After Long Fei's army went north, Sun Quan became restless.General Zhang Liao reported that Sun Quan had ordered Quan Duan and Quan Huan to lead [-] troops into the Lujiang River, apparently to stop the Long army.In addition, Xu Sheng and Ding Feng led [-] troops to steal across the Yangtze River and marched into Xuzhou.

Xu Shu said: "Sun Quan really wants to help Cao Cao and make us an enemy?"

Li Ru shook his head: "It's not necessarily true. Sun Quan is not stupid. He can tell who is big and who is small in the world. I think Sun Quan wants to take advantage of Cao Cao's army retreating northward to hold Xuzhou in his hands and completely get rid of our blockade." his situation."

"The [-] army seems to have captured Xuzhou?" Zhang Xiu sneered: "Xuzhou Zangba has been in business for so many years, it seems that Sun Quan's this time is more than good, and it is another result of labor and labor but nothing."

Guo Jia smiled: "Sun Quan has been suppressed by us for so many years. It is impossible to say that he has no ability. The 3 people must be a cover, and his army is definitely more than [-]!"

"Based on Feng Xiao's words, how should we deal with it?" Long Fei asked.

Guo Jia smiled: "Immediately send troops to seize Hulao Pass, completely drive Cao Jun across the Yellow River, and at the same time order Xu Huang to speed up, and arrive in Xuzhou before Sun Quan destroys Zang Ba! With Zang Ba's character, he will definitely ask us for help , just in time, to find out Sun Quan's strength."

"Isn't this too fast!" Xu Shu hurriedly said: "According to the plan, we need to rest and recuperate in Luoyang, not to mention that Yu Jin's army is still in Xingyang, so we just rushed there. If Yu Jin doesn't withdraw, it will be another big battle. They have a strong city If we keep, we will definitely suffer heavy losses.”

"Cao Jun is newly defeated, and his spirit has been lost. This attack, Cao Jun dare not fight!" Guo Jia said: "Besides, Cao Cao is withdrawing troops, and he has made it clear that he will abandon the south of the Yellow River. I believe that Yu Jin will not stay here foolishly waiting to die. In order to force Yu Jin To retreat, Your Majesty can order Pan Zhang to lead the navy to Guandu, so as to create the illusion of encirclement and annihilation for Yu Jin."

"Okay! This is the real ambush!" Long Fei said happily, "Even if he doesn't withdraw, we still have a secret weapon!"

Early the next morning, the drums of civil war in Luoyang City sounded.Under the watchful eyes of the common people, pairs of soldiers walked through the street neatly and silently.Hearing the marching drums, those ex-soldiers from Jingzhou stood upright one by one, and the urge to go to the battlefield in their hearts swelled a little bit.The brigade of soldiers and horses walked for half an hour before they all left the city. The vanguard had already arrived at Xicheng, and the soldiers behind had just left Chang'an.

The secret agent acted like a baby and rushed into the subordinate yamen of Hulao Pass.Yu Jin, Li Dian, Le Jin, and Sima Yi sat there frowning.Because of Cao Jun's northward withdrawal, in the past few days, the morale of the army has begun to have problems. Many people have already saluted and are ready to run away at any time.All the soldiers lost their fighting spirit. They didn't understand why they were still here when the other soldiers and horses had withdrawn.

"I can't wait any longer! If you don't leave, Long Fei will really come! I heard that the Long Fei navy on the sea has already gone upstream, and the target seems to be us!" Le Jin said: "If the Long Army blocks Yellow River, we have only one dead end."

"What are you afraid of? Haven't you come yet?" Li Dian said, "The general has already sent a letter to His Majesty. I believe there will be news soon. We are the elite of the Wei army. How can we face Long Fei if we lose everything?"

Yu Jin and Sima Yi knew very well that Cao Cao just asked them to hold Long Fei back to buy time for the other soldiers.Listening to the two grumbling, the two didn't say a word, and they glanced at each other.Yu Jin was about to speak when Xi Zuo rushed in.
