The Three Kingdoms

"Say!"

"Master Xu Shu, Governor of the Northwest Camp, is seeking an audience outside the camp!"

"Xu Shu?"

Pan Feng frowned tightly: "See you or not!"

"Please!"

Pan Feng narrowed his eyes, and finally decided to meet.

At this time, Xu Yuanzhi's arrival may have something to do with the turmoil in the Central Plains, but this is an unavoidable thing.

This night, Xu Shu not only met Pan Feng, but also met Ju Yi, the commander of the Central Army, Zhuge Liang, the chief of staff of the First War Zone, Ma Chao, the commander of the Anxi Army, Zhang Yun, the commander of the Guanzhong Army, etc...

It was a peaceful night.

But in the early morning of the next day, the imperial army that was planning to be stationed at Yumen Pass had already set out, marched along Xiliang, marched southward, and marched towards the Guanzhong area of ​​Yongluo and Luozhou.

********************************************

The time has entered April of the first year of Longce, and the turmoil in the Central Plains is still continuing. Xu Sheng's war elephant army supported by the great prince Sun Sheng met with Lu Su in Luozhou. With the banner of the great prince Sun Sheng, let their Raising troops has become more legitimate.

Sun Sheng, the eldest son of the great prince, was the eldest son of Sun Quan after all. He held the decree of the queen Cai Yanyi, formally positioning Sun Ce as a rebel, and began to summon the governors of various provinces to crusade against him.

But Xinchao moved quickly.

After defeating the army of new recruits in the Dongzhi Barracks, Sun Ce began to rapidly expand his influence, taking down Wuzhou, Zhangzhou, Jizhou, Guangzhou, Jiaozhou, Wuzhou, Shazhou and overseas Yizhou and Bazhou in the southeast. After the territory, it soon extended its tentacles into the former Jingzhou territory adjacent to the southeast and west.

In late February, Sun Ce had dispatched Kuai Yue, an envoy representing the imperial court, into Nanzhou to lobby the governors of various provinces.

Kuai Yue represents the Chu family.

The Chu Clan is a court faction with the former Chu State's descendants as the core, represented by Chu Hou Liu Cong, and the support of the people and officials in Chu is unparalleled. After more than a month of lobbying, in mid-April, Nanzhou, Xiazhou , Wuzhou, the governors of the three states went up and made Sun Ce the emperor, respecting the order of the court.

Since then, the entire southern part of the Central Plains and the territory of the eleven states have been completely controlled by Sun Ce's imperial court.

At this time, Yizhou, which was the closest to Dongzhi Wharf, was violently occupied by the returning 30 main force from the third and second theaters.

Because Yizhou was established as a representative of Sun Quan's nautical age, the imperial court invested more resources and developed it earlier. The surrounding barren land was developed into fertile land and became a huge granary that could support the imperial court. The most prosperous and rich giant island in the East China Sea.

At the same time, because of the geographical relationship, this place has also become a giant transit point for the imperial court to connect the land of the East China Sea and the South China Sea to the Australian continent and the American continent. Therefore, on Yizhou Island, there is a large population, and there are countless ships from the sea merchants.

So when the main forces of the Second War Zone and the Third War Zone occupied this island, the news that they were about to return to the Central Plains court could not be suppressed, and soon spread to the entire Central Plains.

As a result, envoys sent by the anti-rebellion forces represented by the great prince Sun Sheng and the new court forces represented by Sun Ce arrived in Yizhou one after another without stopping.

The envoy sent by Sun Ce was relatively fast. This envoy was a member of the Sun clan. Although he was a distant relative, he was still considered a member of the royal family. Sun Bi was a confidant of Sun Ce.

I thought it was an easy task.

But unexpectedly, after he arrived in Yizhou, he was blocked from the barracks. Not only could he not see He Qi, but he also couldn't see Zhou Yu, who was acting as the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone.

Zhou Yu and Sun Ce are inseparable.

Sun Zhou is talking about the union of the two factions of Jiang Guogong Sun Ce and Zhou Guogong Zhou Yu, which can be regarded as the largest faction of the Dingli court.

At this time when Sun Ce ascended the throne, it is reasonable for Zhou Yu to have no choice but to support him.

But now Zhou Yu's attitude made Sun Bi, the envoy sent by Sun Ce, somewhat confused.

Even He Qi didn't quite understand it.

In the south of Yizhou, Gaoshan City.

On the plain outside the city, in the barracks.

Zhou Yu and He Qi stood side by side, climbed up to look at the sea, watched the ebb and flow of the waves, the two were silent for a long time, neither spoke.

Half an hour passed before He Qi said, "Didn't you see the envoy sent by Sun Ce?"

"Seeing and not seeing, it's the same!"

Zhou Yu's face was as calm as water, his eyes were as cold as ice, and his voice was calm: "I can't save him, and I don't have the ability to die with him. I can only watch him die on that throne!"

"You just conclude that Sun Bofu will lose?"

He Qi frowned: "Although the eldest prince wins the hearts of the people, he is not as qualified as Sun Bofu. He may not be able to win the world!"

Now that Sun Ce has stabilized the southern part of the imperial court, once he confiscated the northern territory, it would be tantamount to ruling the Central Plains. The worst result would be to split the country. He can also rely on his strength and use the Yangtze River as a natural danger to keep part of the country.

"If it's just Sun Sheng, naturally he can't be suppressed, but..."

Zhou Yu smiled wryly,

Under his long sleeves, tightly clenched is a secret letter, a secret letter from Sun Zhongmou. This secret letter is like a ten thousand year old ice in the North Pole, which makes his heart feel very cold. Yes, so that he did not dare to have the slightest movement.

[The first thousand and fifty-sixty nine chapters of the text appear]

The first year of Longce, in late April.

Yongzhou.

Chang'an City.

"Come and see, come and see, our jewelry sells the brightest night pearls in the Western Regions!"

"Everyone, come and have a look, the new sheepskin blankets released this year in the Beimo Grassland!"

"Food, new rice that is newly released this year!"

"Wuzhou's new silk product, come and take a look!"

"..."

The markets in the city were crowded with people, and the shop assistants in countless shops were shouting and selling. Basically, everything from all over the world was for sale here.

This is the prosperity of Chang'an City.

Two years have passed since Sun Quan went north on his expedition to the north and passed by Chang'an. Although Chang'an was prosperous in the past, it was still not as prosperous as Jinling City, which was the capital of the capital.

But today's Chang'an City has changed a lot unconsciously.

First of all, the city walls around Chang'an City are constantly being strengthened. Under the several plans of the Ministry of Industry, in addition to Weiyang Palace City and the original city wall plan, an outer city has also been expanded.

The area covered by the outer city has surpassed the area of ​​Jinling City.

Over the past few years, because of Sun Quan's idea, the Yongzhou Governor's Mansion and the Ministry of Industry have invested an astronomical amount of manpower and material resources in the construction of Chang'an City.
