In Wangjun, Youzhou, when he heard the chaotic footsteps outside the courtyard, the dwarf prince Sun Zu sighed and stood up.
"Lord, there are Yuzhou troops outside."
"I guessed it a long time ago. My idiot dragged the entire Gongsun family to death. These five states will eventually fall into the hands of Chang Xiaosi."
"My master cares about the mountains and rivers. If you don't talk about the truth, maybe, maybe..."
"What are you talking about? Ever since I stabbed Chang Xiaosi in the back, I have been fighting to the death. Although my Gongsunzu is five feet three, he is still a tough guy. Go get the knife and fight with me."
"Master, there are only two of us." The old servant trembled.
"Everyone on the left and right will die, just think that my Gongsun Zu died on the battlefield."
The old servant looked moved, and without any hesitation, he took two meat cleavers from the kitchen.
"The king is successful and the bandits are defeated, my grandson and grandson are stained with blood on the battlefield——"
…
In Xiangjiang in the south of the Yangtze River, the warship returning to Shu finally arrived at Bailu County. As soon as he stepped onto the river bank, Xu Mu saw Dou Tong's figure from a distance.
In the battle to attack Cangzhou, because Dongling was the main force in the navy, Xu Mu did not let Dou Tong participate in the battle.
"Lord!"
With many generals in tow, Dou Tong spoke happily.
"Dou Tong, you and I haven't seen each other for at least a year. When I look at you, my beard is curled up." Xu Mu also smiled, walked over and gave Dou Tong a bear hug.
This former King of Southern Shu played an indispensable role in the battle to enter Shu.
"Hey, I'm not Fan Dabeard. I was just preparing a map to open up the river these past few days, and I forgot about it for a moment."
Starting from Bailu County and heading west to Cangzhou, we need to open up river channels all the way. This is the strategy Xu Mu handed over to Dou Tong.
"Dou Tong, are you okay recently?"
"Of course nothing happened... I just heard that Chang Ling died outside Dingbei Pass. I couldn't bear it any longer, so I had to lead the troops."
After resting in advance, both of their faces looked a little sad. It is no exaggeration to say that the great victory outside Dingbei Pass was brought about by Lu Xiu.
"Stop talking about this. Chao Yi is over there, and he will definitely take revenge." Xu Mu changed the subject, "From now on, I will have to trouble you about the affairs of the Xiangjiang River."
"Don't worry, my lord, I have practiced water warfare for a long time just for this day. When my lord dominates the south of the Yangtze River, our Western Shu navy will be like a dragon on the river!"
In the future, if we really capture the entire Jiangnan. Then the Xiangjiang River in front of us must be guarded by natural dangers. Starting from Shuzhou and all the way to Wuzhou, the navy of Western Shu was heavily fortified.
"Knowing that my lord is returning to Shu, the people in the fourteen counties of Shuzhou are all looking forward to it. I went to Chengdu last month and met with Military Advisor Jia. In addition, I also met with the young master Xu Qiao. My lord doesn't know, but the young master Although he is only over a year old, he is already babbling and reciting ancient poems along with the puppy Fu."
Xu Mu was overjoyed. Thinking about it, his father was probably incompetent. The two children in Chengdu had not seen each other for more than a year.
"Everyone says that Xu Qiao, the young master, has inherited his great talent."
"Dou Tong, you are making fun of me again."
At this time, Xu Mu was ready to return home. He declined Dou Tong's reception banquet. After landing on the shore, he entered through Banan City with the accompanying three thousand guards and rushed all the way to Chengdu.
…
"Aww, aww, aww!" Si Hu cried endlessly while riding on the horse.
"Brother Tiger, what are you doing?"
"Brother Mu, I miss my wife! I miss my great son Meng Huo!"
"General Tiger, do you want to drive a pile?"
"Yin Goufu, I'll beat you up!"
Ignoring the quarrel between the two, Xu Mu raised his head, his eyes full of expectation. At this time, he had entered the counties in western Shu.
Along the way, many common people and officials from Western Shu, as Dou Tong said, greeted each other on the way.
"Welcome my king back to Shu!"
"Welcome to the King of Shu!"
The voices in unison continued to resound throughout the sky.
"I'm Xu Mu, thank you all for welcoming me!" Xu Mu's heart was filled with excitement, and he returned the gift with his hands in hand.
In Shuzhou, his business with Jia Zhou always implemented benevolent governance. Today's fourteen counties in Shuzhou, with the stability of the past three years, are no longer as riddled with holes as before.
Officials are honest, people are happy, and children's laughter can be seen everywhere. Although it is not as wealthy as the inner city, in any case, it can be regarded as peaceful without the shadow of aristocratic families.
In Xu Mu's heart, Shuzhou feels like home. Even if he conquers the south of the Yangtze River and half of the country in the future, Shuzhou will still be a place that has haunted his dreams for thousands of times.
After several days of journey, Xu Mu finally returned to Chengdu with more than 3,000 guards.
"Daughter-in-law, my son Meng Huo, Grand Military Advisor, sister-in-law, little sister-in-law, Gou Fuzai, Han Gou and Sun Gou... Brother Mu, little Gong Gou is alive too!"
Xu Mu raised his head and looked at the figure in the crowd. Although he was still a little short, he was already slightly upright, and he was even more surprised.
"Little bow dog!" Si Hu rarely didn't call his wife first, and took the lead in running forward on his tall horse.
"Master, we're home." Yin Hu also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Six Heroes, I have you to protect me all the way. Thank you for your hard work."
"Helmsman, don't talk about this, my lord——"
Before Yin Hu could finish speaking, General Feng, who was under Xu Mu's crotch, was already running towards the city gate, roaring like lightning.
"Master, what's wrong with this horse?"
…
General Feng ran straight to the city gate and stopped in front of Jiang Caiwei. He kept waving his horse's head, probably signaling Jiang Caiwei to mount the horse.
Jiang Caiwei blushed, hesitated, and still stood still. In her hand, she was holding a child wearing a small doudou. At this moment, the child raised his head, blinked curious eyes, and kept looking at Xu Mu on the horse.
"Caiwei, this is it, this is it..."
"Husband, this is Qiao'er. Qiao'er——"
"Dad!" Xu Qiao said in a sweet voice, raised his head and shouted.
Xu Mu's heart was shocked. He hadn't seen her for more than a year. This baby really didn't care about life. He was indeed Xu Mu's son.
"Where's Xu Feng?"
"Xu Lang, Feng'er is here."
After giving birth to a child, Li Xiaowan finally lost the murderous aura of grinding wolfberry tea, and her whole person actually became gentle.
"Okay, okay!" Xu Mu was overjoyed, holding Xu Qiao with one hand and Xu Feng with the other, feeling full of satisfaction in his heart. After traveling through a troubled world, he finally blossomed and had his own children.
"We sincerely welcome our lord back to Shu."
Jia Zhou, Gong Gou, Han Jiu Sunxun, and the little dog Fu who grew up slowly, and many generals in the general hall all raised their hands and clasped their fists.
"No need to be polite." Xu Mu smiled. Away from the swords and flames, seeing his old friend's face again, he felt as if he was a lifetime away.
"Wenlong worked hard."
"Long Gong, you have finally cured your camel disease. If not, I will give you a wife this year."
"Puppy Fu, listen to my boss, eat more this year and try to grow taller. Next year, my boss will take you to fight."
"Han Jiu, when you are free later, come to the palace and sing a song to please Sanniang."
"Sun Xun, if you mess with Si Hu again this time, I won't care about you anymore."
…
Xu Mu exhaled comfortably. If possible, he wished he could stay in Shuzhou forever, drinking and having fun with these relatives and friends every day.
But the Xishu regime wants to continue in troubled times. There is only one way, he leads this group of people to create a new dynasty!
