    Luoyang, the camp of the Han army, Hermione pouted, holding the reins of the rouge horse tightly in her hands, patting the horse's neck lightly from time to time, whispering a few words next to the horse's ears, and talking.  , Hermione's eye circles turned red.  This is Hermione saying goodbye to Rouge Horse. According to the bet, this horse has been lost to Liu Ying'er. The horse raised since childhood is like Hermione's relative. It is really reluctant to give it to others, but Her Majesty the Queen,  A promise worth a thousand pieces of gold must be fulfilled, and you can never swallow your words back, so with tears in your eyes, you brought the horse over and prepared to hand it over to Liu Ying'er.  When she heard that Hermione was visiting, Liu Ying'er hurried out to greet her. She immediately saw the elegant rouge horse behind Hermione, so she laughed and said, "The princess is here to give me a horse, right?" Hermione frowned.  Wrinkle, extremely unhappy, but just said lightly: "Yes, I am willing to admit defeat, now the rouge horse is yours." After saying that, he handed the reins to Liu Ying'er.  Liu Ying'er showed no humility and took the reins and led the rouge horse over. She looked at it from head to toe and praised: "This horse is so beautiful. It is a perfect match for me. Be good, my sister. I will give you a new name."  "Okay." The rouge horse was humane and felt that it was about to leave its owner. It turned its head to look at Hermione, its big eyes full of affection, and even reached over to bite Hermione's sleeve. Hermione's heart was hurt.  , but she is a strong person and would rather give away her beloved war horse than beg Liu Ying'er to give up the bet.  Seeing Hermione's sad look, Liu Ying'er felt so comfortable, as if she had eaten iced watermelon in the dog days of summer. She felt refreshed from the inside out. They are both strange women in the world, and they all have a soft spot for Yuan Feng.  It would be strange if they could live in harmony.  Liu Ying'er ignored Hermione's sadness at all, patted the rouge horse's neck and said: "Come on, let's go for a walk. If you run well, sister will reward you with carrots." After that, she asked someone to bring a stool.  , climbed onto the horse awkwardly.  Hermione was so angry that such a good war horse was given to someone who couldn't ride a horse. It was a waste of money. However, the bet was made and she was willing to admit defeat. It didn't matter if she didn't know how to ride a horse. It was also her business to arrange the arrangements.  , Hermione is still very clear about this. Even though she is King Qiang and the concubine of Yuanfeng, she bullies others with power and cannot do anything without paying.  Liu Ying'er waved her whip and drove the rouge horse out of the camp and drove away, probably to show off to others. Hermione felt distressed and suffocated at the same time. Tears welled up in her eyes as she stood there. She was about to appear in front of her.  Tears were shed in front of everyone, and suddenly, Liu Ying'er was seen leading Rouge Ma back, angry and pouting.  Hermione was wondering when she heard Liu Ying'er say: "This horse is too hot-tempered and almost threw me to death. I don't want it anymore. I don't want it anymore. My horse has the best temper. How could it throw someone? I'm afraid it's you Liu Ying."  His equestrian skills are so bad, Hermione cursed, but she said, "I wonder what Commander Liu is going to do with this horse?  " Liu Ying'er tilted her head and thought for a moment and said: "Our bet has been settled, and now we don't owe each other anything. I don't want this horse anymore. If I sell it to someone else, it's better to sell it to you, my old master.  .  " Hermione was overjoyed and said anxiously: "Okay, okay, just ask for the price, regardless of whether it's money or in kind, or if you want me to help you with anything, just ask.  " Liu Ying'er pretended to calculate for a while before saying: "I'm not short of money either. I can't think of anything for you to exchange for a while. How about this? You take it first, Ma, and I'll talk to you when I think of it.  .  " Hermione nodded like a fool. She was willing to pay any price to get her beloved horse back. Unknowingly, she fell in love with Liu Ying'er and owed her a big favor. As she was talking, Yuan  Feng brought Xu Da and Lan Yu in. At this time, the two old enemies had turned into friendship and reconciled. It was the time to appoint people. Yuan Feng ignored Lan Yu and named him deputy marshal of the army to assist Xu Da in commanding the army.  Regarding the three armies, Lan Yu was the Minister of War in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The government and army had no secrets before him. He knew the combat methods, troop allocation, garrisons in various states, and the situation of grain, grass, horses and equipment. With his help, the great cause of restoring the country would be achieved with half the effort.  Seeing Liu Ying'er and Hermione talking together like close friends, enemies, Yuan Feng couldn't help but wonder: "What are you discussing?  " Lan Yu was right in front of them. Of course, the two of them didn't dare to say it clearly. You must know that the reason for this bet was to bet on whether Liu Ying'er's plan could defeat Lan Yu, so the two of them just mumbled a few words and made excuses.  Leave. ¡­ Yuan Feng convened a meeting with the generals to discuss how to pursue and annihilate the remaining enemies and encircle the emperor in Xuzhou. Now he was faced with a decision, whether the next task was to focus on killing the emperor or annihilating the effective strength of the Zhou army.  Killing the emperor has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty will fall apart. Even if they establish a new emperor, they will not be able to integrate the country's human and material resources. The emperorOnce the news of the collapse spreads, there will be wars all over the world and heroes will rise one after another. This is not limited to those reckless heroes. The powerful imperial officers and soldiers from all over the country will also rise up to fight for the world. For the Han army, it is difficult to deal with a scattered army.  It is much easier to deal with a large group of enemies than a united and efficient enemy.  But the disadvantages are also obvious. The world is in chaos, the people are in dire straits, and the people's lives will inevitably fall into dire straits. This melee will inevitably last for many years.  This is a secret military meeting, and outsiders have no way of knowing how Yuan Feng will make the final decision.  After the meeting, the Han army began a new round of offensive.  Today¡¯s Han army is even stronger, integrating tens of thousands of officers and soldiers prisoners of war, and a large number of armors and weapons are piled up, which cannot be bought with money.  Some people say that fighting a war is about who has more money and more people, but sometimes, just having money is useless. Building weapons, armor, vehicles and flags for 100,000 people, buying war horses, and training soldiers are not just about having money.  problems that can be solved.  Making weapons and armor not only requires a large amount of copper and iron metal, but also blast furnaces, coke, and a large number of skilled craftsmen.  Buying war horses is even more difficult. Horses are not produced in the Central Plains. To buy horses, you must buy them through the north or the western regions. Those nomadic peoples are barbarians who eat people without spitting out their bones. It is not that easy to deal with them.  Wealth was lost, and without war horses there would be no cavalry and the enemy could not be suppressed. This restricted the development of many Central Plains warlords.  There is also the recruitment and training of soldiers, which is a huge systematic project. Without strong local government cooperation or generous policy support, it is simply wishful thinking to want the people to actively join the army. If the strong men are forcibly recruited into the army, the quality of the soldiers will not be improved.  Guarantee, fight with a group of soldiers who are full of complaints and want to run away and go home all day long. If the other side charges, everyone here will have to surrender, so how can the battle be fought?  Even if the deception is good, it still needs to ensure that the soldiers chew grain every day, as well as uniforms, armor, bamboo hats, straw sandals, weapons and horses, which is not a huge waste of money, and this does not include funeral and pension expenses.  The battle for the world cannot be solved by more than a dozen people, but seven or eight bamboo spears, especially when someone has already taken the lead. The Han army paid a huge sacrifice and fought fiercely with the official army on the Central Plains for half a year.  , finally won a great victory, captured 100,000 officers and soldiers, and seized a large amount of supplies. These soldiers, horses, and supplies could be put into use immediately. The Han army doubled in size like a balloon.  Today, the situation on the battlefield has been completely reversed. The Han army has the advantage and the official army is at a disadvantage. Time waits for no one. Yuan Feng personally leads the troops out of Luoyang and goes straight to Xuzhou, known as the thoroughfare of the five provinces and the land of military strategists.  "Occupying Xuzhou is equivalent to hammering a nail into the waist of the empire, preventing the officers and soldiers from the north and the south from looking at each other. With a little time, it will be possible, and the great cause of restoring the country can only be achieved in a matter of days.  However, Yuan Feng and others understood this truth, and the emperor understood his situation better. The war situation in the Central Plains had been decided, and it was meaningless to focus on the gains and losses of one city and one place. Now he also faced two choices. One was to go to the north, where the troops were stationed.  The most powerful army in the empire, as well as his fourth son, another option is to return to the capital and rely on the natural dangers of the Yangtze River to fight a defensive war and a protracted war.  There is no suspense about the emperor's choice. The foundation of the empire is in the south of the Yangtze River. The richest and most densely populated place is also in the south of the Yangtze River. Without the support of water transportation from the south of the Yangtze River, the northern army cannot sustain itself at all. Moreover, the capital city is tall and equipped with many artillery.  With the protection of the Yangtze River's natural moat and the boat division, are we still afraid that the bandit army will really be able to break into the capital?  What¡¯s more, the emperor still had an unborn son in the capital. Whenever he thought about this being his last son, the emperor couldn¡¯t help but feel heartbroken.  Today's emperor is no longer a healthy man, but except for Cao Shaoqin and a few senior eunuchs, all the insiders have been secretly killed. Even his own son, the emperor does not intend to tell the truth to him. Fortunately  The side effects of castrated eggs are very mild. With the emperor's physique, no one can escape it as long as he remembers to deliberately disguise it.  Even a careful biological son like King Yan did not notice anything strange about his biological father. The second prince, who originally came to Xuzhou with great joy and wanted to get the great treasure, but was disappointed, did not show any depression, but was extremely happy.  Cheers for my father's good fortune.  "Moreover, King Yan proposed a strategy to his father. The emperor pondered for a long time and did not comment on the strategy.  The Han army captured Xuzhou without a single blow, taking another important step on the chessboard of seeking world domination. At this point, the area controlled by the Han army was considerable, and it was enough to qualify for the top spot.  The official army retreated to the front line of the Huaihe and Yangtze Rivers, relying on natural dangers to resist the Han army's attack, while the Han army was busy digesting and integrating the land swallowed by the army. Both sides were licking their wounds, gathering strength, and waiting.??A decisive battle.  The end of the book.  Your message, even if it is just a __, will become the motivation for the author's creation.
