In Xuchang, Cao Cao was riding on top of the city, looking toward the south as if he were stunned.
He thought silently, who is Lin Ze? I just developed black powder here, and he used mortars?
What is a mortar? It can actually turn a fortified city into flying ash. I heard that it was iron balls flying out of the iron barrel one by one, and then exploded.
Guan Ning didn't know what it was, but he said he could develop something similar, but Lin Ze had already occupied Jingzhou. His current power was extremely powerful. Lin Ze in the south was already invincible, and he couldn't touch his Beihai yet. , we must capture Xuzhou, otherwise, we will never have a good night’s sleep in the future.
At this moment, Xun Yu suddenly came to report, "Lord, I'm so happy, so happy!"
Cao Cao spat towards the city and said, "What great joy? What great joy? Lin Ze occupied Jingzhou in three months, how powerful is he? What other joys can we have?"
Xun Yu said: "In Chang'an City, Li Jue and Fan Chou fought fiercely. Yang Feng and Dong Cheng rescued the emperor. Li Jue is leading troops to pursue the Manchu civil and military forces. Now, the emperor is about to arrive in Luoyang."
Cao Cao's eyes suddenly became bright and full of conspiracy, and he said: "Where is Wei Yan?"
"The city of Chang'an was broken. Hu Chuquan, the Southern Huns, led his troops to plunder the city of Chang'an and kidnapped Cai Wenji. Wei Yan and Jin Xuan were leading their troops to pursue her."
"Where is Yuan Shao?"
"Not moving!"
Cao Cao's eyes were sharp and he said: "When Sun Wentai died for a jade seal, no one wanted the living emperor?"
Xun Yu said: "This is our opportunity. If we get the emperor, we will get Luoyang. We can attack Yuan Shao in the north, and attack Ma Teng in the west. Even if Lin Ze wants to go north, it will not be that easy!"
Xun Yu knelt down and said: "My lord, in the past Jin Wengong accepted King Zhou Xiang, and the princes obeyed; Han Gaozu mourned for the righteous emperor, and the world returned to his heart. Today, the emperor is covered in dust. My lord should serve the emperor to obey the public expectations. This is an unparalleled strategy! "
Cao Cao was overjoyed and said: "All the troops, rush to Luoyang to welcome the emperor!"
——
In the feudal era, a casual departure might mean goodbye forever. War, disease, wild beasts, everything here might become the reason why a person cannot return home. Therefore, Liu Jin'er had a thousand reasons not to let Lin Ze go out to fight.
Lin Ze, on the other hand, had 10,000 reasons not to want Liu Jin'er to go out, because as long as she was at home, he would have the confidence to do big things. But once something went wrong with her, he would not have much confidence in what he was sure of 100% of the time.
Where to wake up tonight, on the terrace near the water, with the curtains hanging low.
There were golden lamps and jade lamps, neon clothes and feathered clothes. Inside the mandarin duck tent, the bed was full of fragrance. Liu Jin'er's jade arms were wrapped around Lin Ze's waist, and her warm cheek was pressed tightly against his chest.
Even a hero like Lin Ze can't stand the beauty of Liu Jin'er.
Liu Jin'er rushed to Jingzhou as quickly as possible to meet Lin Ze. She no longer cared about the people or politics, she just wanted to stay by Lin Ze's side and be like a kitten.
Lin Ze woke up early, looking at the rippling spring in front of him, her delicate and jade cheeks like flowers, the fragrance on her body was fascinating, her limbs were like gentle vines hanging on her body, Lin Ze's body was slightly forward, and his whole body seemed to be falling. Entering the Pansi Cave, one cannot extricate oneself.
Liu Jin'er woke up from the pain and looked at the man she loved in front of her with resentment. Since he wanted it, she could only give it to him.
Only in this way can their hearts be filled with longing for more than half a year. This time, it was almost a matter of life and death.
When the sun went up, Lin Ze also wanted to go to the gentle countryside and didn't want to wake up.
Liu Jin'er naturally didn't want to be the demon queen who brought disaster to the country. She just had weak legs and couldn't get up.
Lin Ze stood up and leaned on the couch. Liu Jin'er also stood up, pulled up the quilt, and leaned against Lin Ze's chest. She listened quietly to Lin Ze's heartbeat. She felt Lin Ze's fatigue. A kind of spiritual fatigue.
It only took three months to destroy Jingzhou this time, and the battle was not difficult, but Liu Jin'er didn't know why her husband seemed to be drained of energy.
Lin Ze didn't want to speak, but Liu Jin'er had to speak. She said, "My lord, Jingzhou has just been destroyed, and there are so many things going on. I feel that all of them need to be sorted out by Mrs. Cai."
Lin Ze patted Jin'er's back lovingly and said, "You and the military advisor have similar views on heroes. Mrs. Cai's lamp is not a fuel-efficient lamp. If I leave, won't the backyard be on fire?"
Liu Jin'er smiled and said: "I have grown up in the palace, my husband is still afraid that I can't fight this woman? My husband only needs to use him to hold down the wealthy families in Jingzhou, and I will cooperate with Jiaojiao to do other things."
Lin Ze smiled and said, "Last time, your husband betrayed his lust to lure Yuan Zhenzhen into trouble. This time, it's Mrs. Cai's turn."
Liu Jin'er rubbed her cheek against Lin Ze's arm and said, "How do you call it selling out your looks? Mrs. Cai is a wonderful woman in the world. Let's see how I train her. If I train her well, I will be a great support to my husband." .”
Seeing that Lin Ze stopped talking again, Liu Jin'er asked softly: "Is your husband worried about something?"
Lin Ze sighed and said: "Wei Yan, I have an ominous premonition and am waiting for Wei Yan's battle report."
The door was suddenly pushed open. The only ones who dared to push in at this time were a few of Lin Ze's wives and concubines. It was Xu Jiaojiao who learned that the overall situation in Jingzhou had been decided and came with 5,000 logistics troops. Jingzhou is such a big land. , it will take a lot of effort to make it look like Huaibei.
After Xu Jiaojiao entered the door, she said: "Oh, Madam Xunfang, you guys are really serious. Young men should be wary of sex. Don't exhaust yourself just for this matter. Get up quickly. There is information coming back from Xunfang City. Also, Waiting for you to see!"
Xu Jiaojiao brought several maids to help Lin Ze and Liu Jin'er get up and clean themselves.
When Du Xiao saw someone entering the mansion, she followed them in. As a result, she saw Lin Ze and Liu Jin'er naked, and walked out with a red face.
——
Overnight, Jingzhou has undergone earth-shaking changes. Chen Gong is a capable man. He immediately took the civil and military ministers of Jingzhou under his command. Cai Mao, who is the Cai family of Jingzhou, surrendered, and others naturally did not dare to say anything.
Chen Gong's first step is to maintain stability. First let the people of Jingzhou maintain the status quo, and then see how Lin Ze decides.
Xu Ziwu was not here, so he went drinking with Ma Wu. This boy had stiff wings and was already a little reluctant to be around Lin Ze. However, Du Xiao and the girl from the May Moon Film Group stayed with him every step of the way.
Seeing Lin Ze coming out, Chen Gong immediately came over and said, "My lord, there is news from Chang'an. His Majesty the Emperor fled from Chang'an and has now arrived in Luoyang. It is very likely that the Emperor will fall into Cao Cao's hands." .”
Lin Ze pulled up a wry smile and said: "If Liu Biao hadn't provoked me, I'm afraid the emperor would have been rescued by us now. There is a destiny in the world, and it's not you and I who can control it. It is inevitable that Cao Cao coerces the emperor to order the princes. , let’s think of countermeasures.”
Chen Gong's eyes lit up and he said: "My lord went to the north earlier, was he really going to save the emperor?"
"Otherwise?" Lin Ze sighed slightly and said, "General Wei Yan will not be Cao Cao's opponent!"
Chen Gong said: "Why did General Wei Yan and Jin Xuan attack the Southern Xiongnu?"
Lin Ze found a place to sit down and said: "General Wei Yan is a radical. I met Huchuquan in Shangluo and the Southern Xiongnu. Huchuquan insulted me. General Wei Yan would definitely not let him go. I didn't dare at that time. When I told him about the Emperor, I was afraid of alerting the enemy. As a result, General Wei Yan misunderstood my intention, and he didn't take the Emperor to heart. Damn, I'm worried! But if General Wei Yan can rob the people who were robbed by the Southern Huns, Coming back is also a great achievement."
Lin Ze had another concern in his heart, which he didn't tell anyone, and that was Cai Wenji. She was snatched away by King Zuoxian of the Southern Huns. Wei Yan should have no problem dealing with Huchuquan, and Cai Wenji should be able to snatch her back.
When Cai Wenji left her a farewell letter, it had always been a pain point in his heart. He didn't know what had become of her, so he never dared to use large forces to snatch her back because this female intellectual was unstable and would run away after snatching her ten times. Ten times.
Chen Gong said: "No one in the world can keep up with my lord's vision. Memorials have been sent from Nanyang, Ruyang, Huainan and Yangzhou. Take a look."
Lin Ze was distracted from missing Cai Wenji and went to the temporary camp everyone built for him in Jingzhou.
Lin Ze flipped through these weekly chapters, with Chen Gong assisting him. There were many trivial requests for instructions, including one from Shi Liuliu, who asked to resign. She no longer wanted to be the leader of the Tiger Regiment, and recommended Luo Tu as the leader of the Tiger Regiment. Liu Chong was the leader of the Tiger Regiment. The deputy captain, Lin Ze had heard about Luo Tu's growth, but this guy was just a blockbuster.
Lin Ze put down Shi Liuliu's memorial and said, "I don't like Luo Tu at all. This guy was born into a family of generals, but he turned out to be a coward. The generals I chose are all Generals with extremely high talents, but now it seems that those generals who are easy to master are not as good as Luo Tu's ability to wield the sword one by one."
Chen Gongdao: "When the whole army promotes it, having such a good example will stimulate the whole army to work hard."
Lin Ze continued to look through the twists and turns, and most of them were from various legions. They were all jealous of the expansion of the Wolf Fang Regiment, and they also hoped that their own establishment would be increased. The war was getting bigger and bigger, and 10,000 people were really unbearable.
Lin Ze immediately wrote a military order, "Shi Liuliu selected a hundred confidants to leave the Tiger Regiment and serve as Liu Jin'er's personal soldiers. He appointed Luo Tu as the leader of the Tiger Regiment and Liu Chong as the deputy commander of the Tiger Regiment, stationed in Jingzhou; Zhao of the Thunder God Regiment was stationed in Jingzhou. From then on, the establishment was expanded to 100,000 and stationed in Shangluo; the Snow Leopard Regiment was expanded to 100,000 and stationed in Yong'an; the Eagle Regiment was expanded to 100,000 and stationed in Yangle; Ma Wu led the Langya Regiment to continue to station in Xi County and keep an eye on Cao Cao; General Huang Zhong's Central Army has been expanded to 200,000 men and rushed back to Beihai to set up defenses, equipped with 300 mortars. Wei Yan's Saber Regiment has been expanded to 100,000 men and is a mobile force."
Chen Gongdao: "What about Xu Mao's Dragon Regiment? How to deal with Ziwu's Yi Cong troops?"
Lin Ze said: "Go to Yangzhou. Next, we have to start a fight with Zhou Yu!"
Chen Gong thought for a while and said: "The Sharp Sword Regiment, aren't you going to reorganize? My lord, I think that although Taishi Ci surrendered, the soldiers of the Sharp Sword Regiment are good."
Lin Ze smiled and said: "It's easy to get a thousand troops, but it's hard to find a general!"
Lin Ze continued to flip through other memorials, almost all of which were related to people's livelihood and water conservancy issues. Lin Ze had only one principle. If you have spare money and idle labor, you can do it. If it is a waste of people and money, you must not do it.
Lin Ze asked Du Xiao to collect these memorials and find an opportunity to send them all to Yueyang Village for archiving. Chen Gong admired Lin Ze's talent. He only had to take a look at the three thousand-word memorials to know what they wanted to express, and he could Make the most correct judgment very quickly. The Lord not only has the appearance of an emperor, but also has the talent of an eternal wise king.
Chen Gong said: "Master, we can go meet this wealthy family in Jingzhou..."
