The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

Both Cao Cao and Sun Quan were silent on the use of cannons.Long Fei's five armies each brought a cannon and waved it down the city, even if they didn't let it go, the city would have gone crazy.Some small towns surrendered when they saw the erected gun barrels from a distance.Most of Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Qingzhou surrendered one after another.After clearing up the mess here, Long Fei immediately ordered to continue going north and cross the river.

Pan Zhang chose the bottom sheet suitable for crossing the river early, and erected multiple pontoon bridges on the Yellow River.The soldiers of the Dragon Army drove across the Yellow River as if they were walking on flat ground.The soldiers responsible for guarding the Yellow River disappeared without even daring to show their faces.Immediately on the bank of the Yellow River, looking at the endless plains, this is the famous North China Plain, the granary of great rivers and mountains, but now it is so depressed, it is incomprehensible.

Years of droughts have cracked the land, and some originally fertile land has been cracked like tree bark.Even so, the people in rags were still looking for food inside.At a glance, what caught the eye was a haze, not even a single weed.Not to mention the leaves of the trees beside the road, even the bark has been stripped clean.

Seeing the arrival of the army, the people just turned their heads to look, and they didn't feel so surprised.Maybe they have no strength to run anymore.Or they think that running or not running is the same, and the result is death, and a quick death is much better than a slow starvation death.Walking along the official road, from time to time, you will see dead bodies beside the road, a piece of human skin covering the bone frame, and a brown crow is guarding beside them, pecking at them intentionally or unintentionally.If no one drives them away, they will not fly away.

"How could this happen?" Long Fei was puzzled.He walked here when he attacked Gongsun Zan back then. Although Yuan Shao was cruel and greedy, he didn't make Hebei into this look.Cao Cao can also be regarded as a hero. He has occupied Hebei for so many years, but instead of improving, it has become worse and worse.

Xu Shu sighed: "Hebei has been plagued by disasters for years. Cao Cao is so focused on expanding the territory that he has no spare energy to rectify it. In order to fight against us, Cao Cao did not hesitate to drain the last drop of blood from the people."

"Handing Hebei to Cao Cao seems like a mistake!" Long Fei frowned: "How much military rations do we still have, give them some!"

"No!" Guo Jia stopped immediately: "According to the tradition of our army, these people will be the people of our empire after all. Your Majesty has broken the rules. Why don't you worry about these people joining our logistics force and let them do something. Do what you can, so that they don't lose their last face."

"Feng Xiao has considered it thoroughly, this matter is very good!" Li Ru also agreed.

Long Fei immediately ordered that all troops crossing the Yellow River must recruit local people into their logistics troops, even if they slowed down their marching speed.An army led by Long Fei stationed in Wuchao after passing Guandu, and Li Ru was in charge of recruiting refugees.In just one day, there were [-] refugees in a hurry, and the logistics troops were overcrowded, which was much more than the combat troops.Of course, there are many deserters in the Wei army.

As for these people, Long Fei turned a blind eye, as long as they don't cause trouble, they are entitled to be regarded as ordinary people.With the spread of the news, people with no livelihood in the vicinity came one after another, and Wuchao was as lively as when it was duel with Yuan Shao.At night, there was a turmoil of people's voices, and it radiated several miles from the grain field in Yuan Shaotun, all of them were the people who came here in a hurry.

With the increase in population, the consumption of military rations is also unprecedented. There is no place to get food in the local area, so they can only rely on the call of Jingzhou and Yizhou. Come to Long Fei.Long Fei didn't have a good solution for a while, so he sent him down first, and was anxious to discuss with Guo Jia and others.

Everyone shook their heads.Xu Shu suddenly said: "This place was originally a granary. I believe that the rich households in the area may have food, why not..."

"You don't have to, just do it!" Long Fei looked at Dian Wei without any hesitation and said, "Go! Don't come back if you can't get food!"

Dian Wei is familiar with this matter.From Luoyang to Chang'an, to Wancheng, and Jingzhou, Dian Wei handled all the affairs of the local landlord class.Dian Wei has considerable experience in this regard.Sure enough, Dian Wei returned with soldiers and more than a dozen carts of grain after leaving the house for half an hour.When everyone asked why, Dian Wei just laughed and didn't answer.Two days later, a strange incident came from Yanjin in the northeast of Wuchao. The Huang family, a local rich family, disappeared overnight, and even the body was not found.

Those who don't know the inside story say that the Huang family is the worst, bullying the village, it is best to die.Those who knew the inside story all looked at Dian Wei, but Dian Wei still had the same simple and honest smile on his face.Dian Wei was not afraid of Long Fei's words, he was the busiest during this period, he left early and returned late, and every time he came back, he could get more or less food.Until Dian Wei's secret was discovered, the local wealthy family finally panicked.

The smart ones hurriedly took out food and offered it in front of Long Fei in order to avoid death, but the stupid ones carried the food and wanted to escape, the consequences can be imagined.Those who donated grain were rewarded by Long Fei and personally agreed that the land would be confiscated, and they could use the funds in their hands to do business. The grain was considered purchased.Those who escaped, just like the Huang family, disappeared mysteriously.

With food, Long Fei asked Xun Yu to send officials to organize the people to build water conservancy projects around the Yellow River to save themselves.Rebuild your own home.Then lead the army to continue northward.

Sima Fu, the governor of Jizhou, was very happy at first, and Long Fei's gathering of hungry people made him secretly happy for a long time.He also thought about the issue of food and grass, as long as Long Fei couldn't solve it, those hungry people might eat Long Fei instead.It just so happens that you don't need to do it yourself, and it's a good thing to solve Long Fei.However, seeing those big local households donating food one after another and mobilizing the people to build water conservancy projects, Sima Fu knew that Long Fei had settled the matter.

For these matters, it is related to the Wei State, and more importantly, it is related to the future of their Sima family.Sima Fu immediately reported to his second brother Sima Yi.When Sima Yi heard this, he regretted that he didn't move these rich households to Ye City early, instead of giving the food to Long Fei for nothing, he might as well keep it in his own hands.However, since then, I have no regrets, and a big battle is inevitable.

Seeing that the state of Wei is about to perish, but since it is not, the dynasty will continue to suffer.Today's topic is still the matter of withdrawing troops.Cao Pi was uncharacteristically obedient to Sima Yi's words, without showing any dissatisfaction or hesitation on his face, as long as Sima Yi felt that he had already issued an order as the supervisor of the country.This made Sima Yi a little uncomfortable, and the words prepared in his stomach to deal with Cao Pi were useless.

In view of the fact that the Yellow River is too close to Yecheng and Long Fei's army has arrived, Sima Yi decided to move the capital.No one objected to such an important decision to move the capital of the Wei Kingdom from Yecheng to Fanyang, and the court applauded.Cao Pi immediately asked Jiang Ji to draw up an order, seal it in front of Sima Yi, and ordered to start preparations tomorrow, and hand over all matters to Sima Yi.

Cao Pi's last words almost touched Sima Yi: "The general has devoted all his energy to our country Wei. My father and I both understand what the general is thinking. Long Fei has a big enmity with us. My father has decided that from today onwards, as long as The general needs it, and the whole Wei country is at the mercy of the general, we have a common goal, that is Long Fei."

After returning, the more Sima Yi thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.Thinking back carefully, Cao Pi did not object, and neither did the veteran officials of Wei State, which is unreasonable.Dong Zhao has always been known for his outspokenness, and he is dumb today, which makes Sima Yi feel that it is not a good thing.

Now that the capital is going to be moved, Du Shu, the governor of Youzhou, has to do a good job in the reception and construction of the palace.Fanyang is located in Youzhou, on the verge of Beyond the Great Wall, and it is also the northernmost big city in China.If he still can't get rid of Long Fei after arriving here, it really means that Wei Guo's vitality is exhausted.Du Shu was a little embarrassed when he received the order from the court.Ganning in western Liaoning is building a military port extensively, but the promised Goguryeo and Wuhuan people have not moved for a long time.He sent people to urge him many times, but both sides tried to shirk with various excuses, which made Du Shu feel that it was not a good thing.

Just when Du Shu was about to urge him, bad news suddenly came from Shanggu and Daijun, and the Xianbei people came.The Xianbei people didn't come to help themselves, but to rob.The entire territory of Shanggu was annexed by the Xianbei people, and Dai County was also in jeopardy.The prefect urgently asked Du Shu for help.Du Shu didn't know whether to fight or not.It stands to reason that the Xianbei people are their allies, and an attack would destroy unity.However, Shanggu and Daijun are both the territory of the Wei State, and the Xianbei invaded as the governor and ignored it. The court blamed him, and he could not escape it.

Du Shu wanted to ask Sima Yi first.But this group of Xianbei people came aggressively, and soon they crossed the Great Wall and headed towards the hinterland of the Central Plains.Du Shu couldn't wait any longer, the cavalry resisted, but he didn't expect that it was him who joined the army and caused a lot of trouble for himself.

Murong Feng, the master of Xianbei in the east, has been observing the battle between Wei Guo and Long Fei.Soon he found an opportunity from it, a good opportunity for Xianbei people to go south.So he united with Ke Bineng, a master of Peking University in Xi'an in the central part, and a master of Xianbei in the west.They jointly elected Tan Shihuai's son He Lian as the successor to the throne, and planned to take advantage of the opportunity of Wei Guo and Long Fei's battle to reap the power of a fisherman, even if he only entered the south of the Great Wall, he would be considered a victory.

When the Dragon Army crossed the river and Cao Wei sent Sima Lang to make peace, Murong Feng thought the time had come.On the one hand, he agreed to Sima Lang's idea of ​​uniting troops, on the other hand, he was anxious that the tribal leaders of Xianbei would hold a meeting to invade Cao Wei as a whole.This time it was none other than Xianbei general Yuwen Mogui, who was the leader of the Yuwen Department, the second largest tribe in Northeast Xianbei.Murong Feng sent him to test Cao Wei's attitude, and he was blocked by Du Shu in Dai County.

Hearing that his army was blocked by Cao Wei, Murong Feng smiled instead of anger: "Okay! Send people to Yecheng immediately, and I want to see how Sima Yi will deal with this sinner who attacked the allied army."
