Daqin Ghost Valley, makes you vertical and horizontal but not unified

Nanzhong, inside the Castle Guard's Mansion

Several senior officials including the old patriarch, Zhu Ying, Feng Quji, Liu Paopao and Sun Shiwan gathered together.

Because when Cao Chao left, he did not designate who would oversee the country, but adopted a form similar to the cabinet system, and all major issues were discussed by five people.

Zhu Ying is sorting out everyone's reports.

"The food and grass are ready, enough for my army to need for March."

"Ordnance armor has also been built."

"Shushan promised to ensure that our army will not be harassed by barbarians when marching on Wuchi Road"

"The [-] troops have finished their training and their morale is high."

"Okay!" After hearing this, Zhu Ying nodded and asked Feng Quji who was on the side.

"Feng Xiang, I wonder how the appeasement work in the counties is going?"

Feng Qu quickly stroked his long beard and said: "The county magistrates, county lieutenants, and meritorious officials in all counties are all our people, and the rest are selected from the outstanding children of the big families in various places.

"As for the villages, ri, and pavilions, local people with high morals and high prestige are selected to serve. At present, these people are quite safe."

While listening, Zhu Ying recorded it on the cloth.

After finishing writing, he looked up at the crowd and asked, "Is there anything else you need to add?"

After seeing everyone shaking their heads, Zhu Ying put the cloth into a bamboo tube, covered it with sealing mud, and called people to come and send it to Nanzheng.

At this moment, a soldier came to report that there was news from Nanzheng.

Leaning slightly, the messenger walked into the tent, saluted everyone, and then handed over the bamboo tube in his hand.

Zhu Ying took the bamboo tube, opened it and took out the cloth to take a look, her eyes lit up immediately.

"Your Majesty has ordered us to pay close attention to the situation in Shu County. As long as the other party sends troops, we will immediately launch the Northern Expedition!"

"it is good!"

"The old man has been waiting for this day for too long!"

"Fuck it!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present became excited.

However, in the next second, another soldier came to report, saying that the ladies in the palace had an invitation, and the few people seemed to be pinched by the neck, and there was no sound at all.

It was the old patriarch who was the first to react, and slapped his forehead: "It's getting late, and the old man has to go back to the camp to train soldiers. These bastards can't afford to watch for a while!"

After that, he ran away in a flash.

"Look at this old man's memory. I made an appointment to drink with a barbarian patriarch earlier. Let's say goodbye." Liu Paopao followed closely behind.

"The old man suddenly remembered that there was a sum of rations that had not been confiscated. The three armies would go ahead without moving the rations. This matter cannot be delayed, so the old man left first." Finally, Sun Shiwan also slipped away.

Zhu Ying and Feng Quji looked at each other, and before they could react, they had already run away.

"I..." Feng Quji was about to refuse and leave when Zhu Ying stopped him.

"Brother Feng, you should go with brother."

"Brother Zhu, why bother to force you!" Feng Quji said angrily, stomping his leg.

"Brother Feng, let me tell you the truth, brother, I'm afraid!"

"...I'm afraid too!"

Chapter 189 The Reunion with Senior Brother Gai Nie

Zhu Ying and Feng Quji walked into the harem cautiously.

The two lowered their heads and took small steps, giving people a feeling of caution.

Under the leadership of the maid, the two came to a palace.

When he looked up, he was startled.

I saw Jingxi, Xiuniang, Li Yanyan, Ehuang, Nvying, Qinyue (Madam Shi's real name) and several other wives were there.

"My minister has met several wives."

After the two only glanced at each other, they quickly bowed their heads and saluted.

"The two ministers are exempt from courtesy. I heard that my army will go to the north soon. I don't know if it is true or not?"

"Yes, it is."

Hearing Li Yanyan's question, the two immediately guessed that the king must have sent letters to several wives, so they quickly agreed.

"The few of us will go north with the army."

The red lips moved slightly, and a cold voice sounded, and the startled salamander said in an unquestionable tone.

"what?"

Zhu Ying and Feng Quji looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

According to the rules, women are not allowed to join the army, let alone several wives, it is absolutely impossible to agree.

But the two had seen the methods of several women last time, and they knew that the other party was not an ordinary person, so it seemed that they couldn't generalize.

If you can get a few women to help, it should be easier to capture Bashu.

Just when the two were weighing the gains and losses, Nvying's chuckle came from next to their ears.

Laughed a little coldly.

"The two Xiangbang seem to have different opinions, why don't you tell us sisters?"

Nvying has been unhappy with these two items for a long time.

If it wasn't for these two guys' instigation, how could the husband marry that Mrs. Shi!

Such fine people as Zhu Ying and Feng Quji instantly sensed something was wrong in the female English's voice, shrank their necks, and responded in unison:

"No, absolutely not!"

"Several wives are wise and mighty, and they don't give in to men. They should join us in the Northern Expedition!"

"..."

……

Between the forest roads, a tyrannical breath appeared.

Wearing a silver slim gown and a dark blue cloak, Ge Nie was walking slowly from Lindao, holding a Qingshuang sword.

In a small wooden house not far away, Cao Chao was holding a cup of wine, tasting fine wine.

"Xiao Chao!"

Gai Nie pushed the door and entered, looking at Cao Chao with a complicated expression.

"Brother, come, drink!"

Cao Chao raised his hand and pointed to the opposite side, motioning for the other side to sit down, with a very casual attitude.

It's like gathering friends for many years, without the slightest hostility.

"What is this wine?"

"This should be the stronghold of wine dealers, and I discovered it by accident."

Cao Chao said disapprovingly.

"I haven't seen you for many years, I didn't expect Xiaochao that you have become the King of Han!"

"People always have the courage to try. I told Xiaozhuang once that vertical and horizontal is just one of the options, but we may not have to take this path."

"good"

After listening to Gai Nie, his expression was thoughtful.

"Master once said back then that you have to walk your own path. I didn't expect you, Xiaochao, to have taken this step."

"Isn't it bad?"

"You still haven't changed, you're still so confident!"

Ge Nie shook his head and chuckled.

Don't look at Cao Chao's sloppy look back then, but Gai Nie knew that this guy was actually the same kind of person as him and Wei Zhuang.

Naturally arrogant, full of self-confidence.

Gai Nie would not try to persuade such a person.

Even if he didn't think Cao Chao's move would be successful, he might even die on the spot in the future.

But this is the path Cao Chao chose, and he has no regrets.

"Senior brother actually wants to say, I still like to deceive people so much." Cao Chao smiled lightly.

When he was in Guigu back then, he was cheated and cheated. Cao Chao had a good idea of ​​his image in Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang's mind.

"The [-] troops..."

"I lied to King Qin!"

After Gai Nie heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry, and at the same time, he guessed the intention of the other party.

"You want to take Ge Yang, get the food inside."

"Those who know me, senior brother!"

"But you are one step too late. Ge Yang has already been captured by the combined forces of Han and Wei. There should be a fierce confrontation over there now."

Cao Chao was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect the coalition forces to hit Ge Yang.

According to history, the six-nation coalition led by Wei Wuji should have stopped at Hangu Pass.

From this point of view, the butterfly wings I incited after crossing were a bit big, and even affected the record of the coalition forces.

Cao Chao really wanted to continue asking, but also knew that this had already involved Qin's military secrets...

Gai Nie's point just now was considered to be the best of benevolence, so he didn't continue on this topic.
