Chapter 1206

Although it was already March at this time.

But the nights in the Western Regions were still very cold.

The pool filled with hot water emitted lingering heat, making the palace bedroom seem to be filled with a thin layer of mist, and the candlelight shining through the mist appeared even more hazy.

Duan Yu, lying in the pool, leaned comfortably on the jade pillow by the pool, enjoying a moment of tranquility.

He took the opportunity to open the system and take a look inside.

Unlock next level entry...

Duan Yu frowned.

He had already tried various methods over the past few months.

But he still hadn't been able to unlock the entry again.

What exactly is the condition for unlocking this entry?

However, it would be best if it didn't require upgrading all other entries to gold before unlocking the next stage of entries.

If he had to upgrade all entries to gold, he probably wouldn't be able to do it by the day he died.

Unless he could live forever.

It's just that I don't know if the 【Automatic Healing】 entry can lead to immortality when it's upgraded to the end.

So far, only this entry seems to have the hope of increasing lifespan.

Just as Duan Yu was leaning in the pool thinking.

A sound of soft footsteps rang out.

Then another bucket of hot water was added to the pool.

"Alright, that's enough. You're tired too, go rest," Duan Yu, who was closing his eyes to rest, said.

"Hmm~"

Yimei's soft voice rang out.

But after the soft sound, Duan Yu did not hear the sound of Yimei leaving.

Instead, after a subtle sound, there was a splash of water from the pool.

Without looking, Duan Yu knew what had happened.

The water level in the pool suddenly rose, and immediately after, a fragrant and soft body leaned over.

"General... let this maid serve the General in bathing..."

A soft, thin voice rang in Duan Yu's ear.

A tingling sensation spread from his ear throughout his whole body.

With a splash of water as she dived into the pool, Duan Yu's hands, which were spread out on the edge of the pool, clenched into fists.

"Hiss!"

The next morning.

Inside the palace hall.

Jia Xu, Cheng Yu, Xun You, Xi Zhong, Guo Jia, and a group of staff officers, plus Hua Xiong, Qu Yi, Zhang Xiu, Huchuquan, Zhao Yun, Zhao Feng, Ma Chao, Pang De, Hao Zhao, Bai Lin, as well as Cao Ren, Dian Wei, and others were all seated in the hall.

Besides that, sitting next to Duan Yu was Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Ang.

The current Cao Ang had already been adopted by Duan Yu as his foster son.

Compared to the many children Cao Cao had in history, the current Cao Cao only left behind one son and one daughter after his death.

Both were born to Cao Cao's concubine, Lady Liu.

The daughter, Qinghe, was left in Jixian, Hanyang Commandery at this time.

Little Cao Ang sat beside Duan Yu, seemingly having walked out of his grief.

Compared to Cao Cao, Cao Ang looked very handsome and heroic; it could be foreseen that he would definitely be much better looking than Cao Cao when he grew up.

These noble families, powerful clans, and those with power and influence, regardless of whether they themselves were ugly or beautiful, their wives were more beautiful than the last.

This is all a disguised form of genetic improvement.

Duan Yu taking Cao Ang as his foster son was equivalent to bringing the entire Cao clan, the Xiahou clan, and Cao Cao's previous relatives and generals under his command.

The Cao clan, the Xiahou clan, and Cao Cao's previous generals were also a great supplement to Liangzhou.

At this time, everyone was eating breakfast with their heads down.

But their eyes would lift from time to time to look in the direction of Duan Yu's side.

Because beside Duan Yu, a beautiful golden-haired, green-eyed beauty was kneeling.

"Let's discuss how to advance the troops next."

Duan Yu said while slurping the porridge in a bowl made of pure silver.

Just as Duan Yu's voice fell, Yimei, who was kneeling beside Duan Yu and adding dishes, moved her body backward: "General, this maid will take her leave."

Duan Yu reached out and pressed down, saying: "It's fine, you just stay here and serve."

After Duan Yu's voice fell, Yimei revealed a sweet smile.

Jia Xu, who was eating with his head down, raised his eyes curiously and took a look.

"According to the intelligence we have collected so far, the Wusun army is on its way, and the small states along the way have all sent troops to join Wusun, forming a coalition army."

"Besides Wusun, the biggest threat to us is the Northern Xiongnu."

Duan Yu held his bowl and chopsticks and said: "If we advance toward the middle of the Western Regions now, the Northern Xiongnu will very likely come out from the Tianshan Mountains and then cut off our grain route from the rear."

Everyone in the hall nodded after hearing this.

One hundred thousand troops.

Among them, thirty-five thousand were combat soldiers, and the rest were just civilian laborers and corvee workers responsible for transporting grain, weapons, and supplies.

Once the Northern Xiongnu cross the Tianshan Mountains and enter the Western Regions.

Then it would definitely threaten the grain route in the rear.

By that time, with Wusun delaying in the front and the Northern Xiongnu harassing in the rear, even if the army was not defeated, it would definitely be unable to advance because the grain route was blocked.

It would be equivalent to launching a war of one hundred thousand people and returning without success.

"Therefore, this lord has decided to solve the Northern Xiongnu first," Duan Yu frowned.

Then he turned his gaze toward Huchuquan.

Huchuquan, who had experienced three years of tempering in Liangzhou, was no longer the naive and arrogant Xiongnu noble he was in Jinyang.

If one were to set aside his appearance, the current Huchuquan was more like a Han general.

Seeing Duan Yu turn his gaze toward him.

Huchuquan immediately became excited.

Although he had stayed in Liangzhou for three years, for most of these three years, Huchuquan had been responsible for the rear.

He had never properly participated in a major battle.

"Huchuquan, there is no one here more familiar with the Xiongnu than you, and this time I am letting you take three thousand Xiongnu volunteers, just to see your performance."

"This lord will give you a chance, a chance to perform meritorious service."

The excited Huchuquan stood up and cupped his hands: "Brother-in-law... no... my lord, the end general will never disgrace the lord, will never disgrace the Liangzhou army!"
