Chapter 332: Movements of Liu Bian's Army

~7 min read 1,365 words

The Wenxin Mirror was an Earth Grade Upper Quality treasure. It was exchanged by Liu Bian when he exchanged for the technique. At that time, it cost him thirty thousand National Fortune points.

The National Fortune points saved during these days were completely bottomed out, and he could only wait for them to accumulate slowly later.

Back then, he felt that five hundred thousand National Fortune points was already a huge sum of money. He didn't expect that when he really spent it, it wouldn't be enough at all.

In the system mall, he couldn't afford any of the really good things!

In his previous life, he was a real poor ghost. He didn't expect that even though he was an emperor in this life, he still hadn't gotten rid of the fate of a poor ghost!

At least, that's the case for now!!!

"How much longer until we reach the territory of Liangzhou?"

After the two finished talking about the Shadow Guard, Liu Bian asked Jia Xu beside him.

Hearing Liu Bian's question, Jia Xu pondered for a moment, then immediately said:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, after we rest in Qi County tonight, it is estimated that we will be able to reach Chunqu County in Liangzhou tomorrow evening."

"And Chunqu County is only sixty miles away from Linjing City, the commandery city of Anding Commandery. At our marching speed, we can reach it in just one day."

At this time, Guo Jia also stepped forward and said respectfully to Liu Bian: "Your Majesty, you can order General Xiahou Dun to lead five thousand troops to take the Chunqu County and Yinpan County along the way first."

After speaking, Guo Jia asked Jia Xu again: "I wonder if Jia knows how many personnel are stationed in these two cities of Chunqu and Yinpan?"

"Who is the defender in the city?"

After Jia Xu heard Guo Jia's question, he replied without thinking: "The Shadow Guard had long ago sent detailed information about this."

After a pause, he continued: "According to the information sent back by the Shadow Guard, Chunqu County and Yinpan County originally had two thousand troops stationed."

"Ever since Your Majesty issued the imperial edict for the expedition, Duan Wei withdrew the garrison from other cities. Now, the military strength of the entire Anding Commandery is concentrated in Linjing City."

"Plus the twenty thousand troops originally in Linjing City, currently, the military strength of the entire Linjing City is forty thousand."

Jia Xu told everyone the news sent back by the Shadow Guard in detail.

"Then what about Xu Rong in Beidi Commandery? He wouldn't have also gathered the military strength of the entire commandery and concentrated it in Fuping City, right!"

After hearing Duan Wei's operation, Guo Jia was also a little surprised and hurriedly thought of Xu Rong in Beidi Commandery. He was really a little worried that Xu Rong would also mobilize the military strength of the entire commandery to protect the commandery city of Fuping City.

"That's not the case. However, I heard that Han Sui in Jincheng is sending people to contact Xu Rong."

"Currently, the number of contacts between Han Sui and the Qiang tribe in Jincheng has become more frequent!"

Speaking of Han Sui, Jia Xu's expression also became a bit solemn. According to the news from the Shadow Guard, it was highly likely that Han Sui would rebel.

"Hehe, Han Sui's actions are within my expectations. This is nothing to be surprised about. I just didn't expect Duan Wei to be such a ruthless person."

"Isn't he afraid that Han Sui in Jincheng and Ma Teng in Wuwei will take the opportunity to seize it?"

Liu Bian, who heard this, was not surprised at all by Han Sui's actions, but Duan Wei's person was really a bit unexpected.

"Your Majesty, if I am not mistaken, it must be that Han Sui in Jincheng promised Duan Wei something."

"Otherwise, Duan Wei would definitely not dare to do this."

Guo Jia at this time had guessed Duan Wei's intention. If there was no Han Sui to hold back Ma Teng in Wuwei, how could Duan Wei have done this.

After hearing Guo Jia's analysis, Liu Bian and the others nodded slightly. If they said there was no help from Han Sui, everyone would not believe it.

"Since Han Sui dares to do this, Wenhe, you immediately order the Shadow Guard to send an order to Ma Teng in Wuwei Commandery, telling him to destroy Han Sui for me first!"

"This ungrateful white-eyed wolf, he actually dares to collude with foreign tribes! By the way, tell Ma Chao to go back and help. With him, a Postnatal First Heaven, Ma Teng will be smoother."

Liu Bian said angrily about Han Sui's actions.

Although everyone had already guessed that he would resist, no one wanted to see him unite with foreign tribes to slaughter the people of the Han.

Since ancient times, no one would not be angry about these Han traitors, especially for those who knew about the dark eras of later generations, where the Han people were slaughtered like animals.

Thinking of this, Liu Bian was a little angry, and he was even more angry about Han Sui's actions.

Seeing the anger on Liu Bian's face, Jia Xu also felt a chill in his heart and immediately replied: "This subordinate obeys the decree!"

Afterwards, Jia Xu cupped his hands and saluted Liu Bian, then went down to arrange it...

Seeing Jia Xu leave, Liu Bian said to Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, I agree with your suggestion to let Miaocai go to Chunqu County and Yinpan County first."

"However, you can only occupy Yinpan County at most, and you must not advance rashly. After all, there are forty thousand troops in Linjing City!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

After hearing Liu Bian's words, Guo Jia immediately said respectfully to Liu Bian.

"Fengxian, Mengde, order the army to rest in Qi County tonight and set off again tomorrow morning!"

After speaking to Guo Jia, Liu Bian said to Lü Bu and Cao Cao beside him.

"This subordinate obeys the decree!"

After the two cupped their hands and saluted Liu Bian respectfully, they also went to arrange the army.

Looking at the busy crowd leaving, Liu Bian discussed the subsequent matters with Guo Jia, and then followed the army to set off again.

And at this time, the imperial court in Luoyang had also received the good news sent by Zhang Liao!

At this moment, in the Imperial Palace's court hall, Xun Yu was holding the battle report sent back by Zhang Liao and speaking excitedly to the assembled officials:

"Everyone, this is the eight-hundred-li urgent report just sent from Bingzhou!"

"General Zhang Liao has already occupied the entire Shangjun land in just ten days. Now, he has even taken Huanyang City and Huanyin City in Xihe Commandery!"

"And we have a record of zero casualties!!!"

Xun Yu's face was flushed with excitement, and he said loudly to the officials. Because he was too excited, his body was trembling slightly!

No one could understand Xun Yu's mood at this time.

Xun Yu's life was all for the sake of the Han Dynasty. In history, he even committed suicide to prevent Cao Cao from proclaiming himself emperor.

Although he might know that the Han Dynasty had failed the world, he, Xun Yu, had not failed the Han Dynasty.

He was worthy of the Han Dynasty, worthy of the people of the world, and worthy of anyone!

Except for his lord, the King of Wei—Cao Cao!!!

It was precisely because he had such high expectations for the Han Dynasty that Xun Yu at this time was truly happy for Liu Bian and even happier for the Han Dynasty!

And Yuan Kui, Yang Biao, Wang Yun, Cai Yong, and others who heard Xun Yu's words were even more tearful.

"Ancestors of the Great Han! Do you see this? His Majesty, he did it!"

"His Majesty is mighty!"

I don't know who suddenly shouted, and then everyone seemed to be infected and followed along and shouted in unison.

"His Majesty is mighty..." ===== CHAPTER 333 =====
