Great Wei Nengchen

"Pass down the order to collect all the Thunderbolt bottles, put them in sacks, and throw them down from the hillsides on both sides, and blast the mouth of the valley!"

"what?"

"Execute the military order, and those who hesitate will be killed!"

"promise!"

Up to now, the dead horse can only be used as a living horse doctor. Xiao Xuan remembered that his father said that the five elements are the most wonderful. Not only do they generate and restrain each other, but they also restrain each other. Water can restrain fire, and fire can also restrain fire!

For example, if there is a big fire in the forest and cannot be extinguished with water, light a big fire in the opposite direction, and when the two fires meet, they will suddenly go out!

This place is too far away from the water source, it would be a mistake to get water to put out the fire, so I had to try the method of putting out the fire with fire, my father never said anything wrong!

Thousands of Thunderbolt bottles were quickly collected, packed in big bags, carried by the soldiers to the hillsides on both sides, and thrown down neatly one by two, falling into the raging flames of Taniguchi...

"Boom!...Boom!...Boom!"

An extremely shocking scene appeared. Thousands of thunderbolt bottles fell into the flames, and a big explosion occurred in an instant. The flames rushed to a height of several tens of feet, and a large mushroom cloud appeared. The huge rock at the entrance of the valley was blown into countless small pieces , smashed in all directions...

Fortunately, Xiao Xuan led the soldiers and retreated a few hundred feet ahead of time, otherwise blood would flow into rivers. No wonder my father said in private that this kind of thunderbolt bottle has been researched to the end, and it can exert the power to destroy the world. It's true!

Looking at Taniguchi again, the boulders were all blown to pieces. The raging flames were extinguished after a few flashes, leaving only bursts of thick smoke...

"Haha, the sky will never destroy me, the sky will never destroy me!"

……

The surviving soldiers ran out howling, and there were only about 6000 to [-] people left, and many of them still had flames on their bodies. After they left the valley, they rolled all over the ground to put out the fire. , just burned off some hair and blackened her face, you can still ask for a wash!

Seeing that the brothers were safe and sound, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, he really wanted to scare people to death, but with this lesson learned, he will never be ambushed again next time!

"It's God's will, it's God's will!"

On the cliff, Huo Jun witnessed the whole process, he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time, and then he led his soldiers back to the camp slowly, thinking about how to explain what he saw, is that still the power of human beings?

All the thunderbolt bottles were used up, and the fire in the valley was still burning. After discussing with Xiao Xuan, Deng Ai and others, they also gave up their plan to continue the pursuit and led the soldiers to triumph. After all, this battle was won!

On the other side, the Shu army retreated to the Micangshan camp. Their morale was low, their supplies were exhausted, and they had no ability to continue fighting. Zhuge Liang tearfully issued an order to withdraw the troops. In order to prevent the Wei army from taking advantage of the situation, he ordered the rear troops to burn Plank road, so far the Dingjun Mountain battle is over!

The Battle of Dingjun Mountain lasted for nearly three months, and there were more than ten times of big and small confrontations. Shu generals Zhang Bao, Wu Yi, and Wu Ban were killed on the battlefield, and Chen Dao was injured and disabled. countless!

The Wei army also suffered tens of thousands of casualties and consumed countless supplies. From a tactical point of view, Wei and Shu basically drew a tie!

But from a strategic point of view, the failure of Shu Han's first Northern Expedition not only dampened the morale of the army and the people, but also severely depleted the weak national power, completely losing the initiative in the war!

However, the successful defense of the Wei State against the invasion eliminated the adverse effects of replacing the Han Dynasty to a certain extent, and then condensed the hearts of the people inside, firmly controlling the initiative in the war!

Upon hearing the news of Zhuge Liang's defeat, the Shu Han troops in Jinniudao, Yangbadao, and Jingzhou retreated across the board. The Wei army did not take advantage of the situation to pursue, and the two sides officially ceased fighting.

After the Shu army withdrew to Chengdu, Zhuge Liang wrote a letter to the young master Liu Chan, taking full responsibility for the defeat of the Northern Expedition, resigned from the position of Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, the Marquis of Wuxiang, and demoted himself to the right general!

Fortunately, the Empress Dowager Wu understands the truth and knows that the Shu Han cannot live without Zhuge Liang. She first approved the resignation memorial, and then issued an order in the name of Liu Chan to comfort Zhuge Liang. The father's treatment remains the same!

On the other side, Xiao Xuan won the battle of Dingjun Mountain and initially established his prestige in the army. The soldiers and civilians all praised: "The Xiao family has successors, and Mr. Xuan's future is limitless!" '

When the news of success was delivered to Xuchang City, the imperial court was also rejoicing and celebrated for several days. Only Emperor Wei-Cao Pi was unhappy, and announced three days later that the capital was officially moved to Luoyang City!

In the first year of Huangchu - Autumn, September [-]th, the Great Wei Empire moved its capital to Luoyang City. On the fifth day after the capital was moved, Cao Pi issued an imperial decree, formally implementing the Nine-Rank Official Person Law, and the decree spread to all states, counties, and counties in the Central Plains. Celebrating with great fanfare, the children of a poor family are like mourning and concubine examination!

Unexpectedly, only five days later, Xiao Yi announced in Chang'an that the imperial examination system would be officially implemented, regardless of their birth status, and only recruit talents based on their test scores.

Chapter 1676 Xiao Xuan, the word Boshang!

The sun and the moon fly by, time goes by, and in the blink of an eye, more than three years have passed, and many things have happened between the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu!

First of all, Zhuge Liang is indeed a loyal minister. Although he suffered great setbacks, his heart to revive the Han Dynasty was not dead. After a little rest, he launched two Northern Expeditions, vowing to set foot in Guanzhong and drink the Ma Weishui!

Such a good "sharpening stone", naturally we should make good use of it. Deng Ai, Hao Zhao, Sun Shao, Jiang Wei, Xiao Xuan, Xiao Yao, Xiao Huang... and others took turns to fight fiercely with the Shu army !

At the beginning, the Xiao brothers won less and lost more, but as the teenagers gradually matured and their military skills improved by leaps and bounds, it became more and more difficult for Zhuge Liang to take advantage. In the end, he was exhausted, mentally and mentally wounded, and he vomited blood, so he had to lead the army. Depressedly retreated to Bashu, and then stayed in bed for many years, and never cheered up again!

Because the Shu State sent troops to the Northern Expedition one after another, Guanzhong needed someone to sit in the town. Xiao Yi used this as an excuse to stay in Chang'an City for a long time, and even took over his family members. In the three years, Xiao Yi only returned to Luoyang City for two days. Second-rate!

Once it was Empress Dowager Bian’s 60th birthday, and a son-in-law must be filial, so Xiao Xuan, the eldest son, was appointed to sit in Chang’an. A precious birthday gift, lived for three days, and returned to Chang'an. During this period, I only met Cao Pi at the birthday banquet and had a brief conversation with Cao Pi!

The other time was when Cheng Yu, a senior official of the Cao Wei Dynasty, died of illness. As a friend who had known him for many years, Xiao Yi went to Luoyang City to pay respects and kept a vigil for him. Less than a month after he died of illness, Cao Hong also passed away, and the elders of Cao Wei all died!

At this point, the Great Wei Empire has actually been divided and governed. The nine-rank official law is implemented in the east, and the imperial examination system is implemented in the west. There is no certainty of victory!

But the balance will be broken sooner or later, the people of the world will wait and see who will rule the Central Plains between Cao and Xiao!

…………

A hundred miles southwest of Chang'an, there is Mount Ganquan, with forests of fruit and trees, picturesque flowers and plants, and clear springs flowing.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he did not hesitate to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to expand the palace on a large scale. Its luxury level surpassed that of Changle Palace. Because of the sweet spring gushing out from the mountain, it was named "Oasis Palace". Emperor Wu visited this place dozens of times in his life. , dealt with countless military and state affairs, and left countless legends and stories!

After Xiao Yi moved to Guanzhong, he sent someone to slightly renovate the deserted Ganquan Palace. If he had nothing to do, he would bring his wife and children over to play and enjoy the royal treatment. By the way, he could think about the world's major affairs in a quiet environment!

"Hoo! - Hoo! Hoo!"

It was July, the sun was scorching, under a century-old pear tree in Ganquan Palace, Xiao Yi was wearing unlined clothes, lying on the Taishi chair and sleeping soundly, with saliva dripping out, and wormwood was lit beside him to drive away the pear tree. Nasty mosquitoes!

The eighth lady, Sun Shangxiang, sat beside her, holding green pears in her hands, and ate six of them in one go without feeling sour at all. Such a good appetite!

According to the sour and hot woman, this child must be a naughty boy!

"Come on, outflank them left and right, and defeat them!"

"Hang it up, little thirteen, you idiot, why are you beating your own people?"

……

In the creek not far away, dozens of children are playing, some are touching fish and shrimp in the crevices of the rocks, some are playing water fights with each other, having a great time. These children have the surname Xiao and the Guo, and those surnamed Niu and Ma, but they get along like a family!

There are four small wooden carts under the big pear tree. Inside are four children under the age of two. Some are sound asleep, some are wide-eyed, watching their brothers and sisters playing, but they want to participate but are powerless. And these four little treasures are the result of Xiao Yi's three years of hard work:

The fifteenth son, Xiao Yan, was born to the great wife Cao Jie, and was also the third son of the Xiao family.

The name is good, Yan Zhe, the soul of fire, but with my father's surname, there is always a strange feeling, there is nothing wrong with the child, why is it always anti-inflammatory?

The sixteenth son, Xiao Yu, was born to the second wife, Cai Wenji!

The seventeenth son Xiao Cheng, born to the sixth wife Zhao Yu, is also Xiao Feng's half-brother!

The eighteenth son, Xiao Yan, was born to the seventh wife, Daoxiang!

So far, Xiao Yi has twenty sons (including one illegitimate child, one in his belly), four daughters, and he doesn't need to call outsiders to play mahjong. His own children can make up enough tables for six tables, but Xiao Yi is not too sure about this number. Satisfied, consider yourself behind!
