Online Game Bandit Empire

When the academic exchange meeting in Yuyang City was in full swing, the northern and western regions were in full swing!

Zhao Yun accepted the order of General Li Tianlong and sent troops to force the remnants of Ding Ling, and Nahan Mura returned to the royal court to state the interests and disadvantages.

But after all, there are people who don't know each other, so the court of Ding Ling was divided into three, and some of them thought that Youzhou was invincible, and it was better to surrender, so as not to die and exterminate the clan.

The other part of the people insisted on resisting to the end and fighting against Li Tianlong all the time.

The youngest group thought that they should move west and north, avoiding the edge of Youzhou.

In this way, Ding Lingwang's court quarreled all day long, and Ding Lingwang had a headache, but he didn't know how to choose.

I want to surrender, but in my heart I am not far away from giving up my rights and giving up this high position.

If you don't surrender, you will face a fatal blow!

If you migrate, you will be reluctant to give up this fertile land.

It's a lot of hard work.

Seeing this, Zhao Yun was not in a hurry. As soon as the deadline has passed, they will send troops to attack, annihilate the entire Ding Ling clan, and reduce all the captives to slaves!

In the Western Regions, an army of 31 million people has swept out of Juyan, headed by Jia Xu and supplemented by Ma Chao, ready to meddle in the affairs of the Western Regions.

When the army arrived at Shanshan, the king of Loulan, the king of Loulan did not dare to slack off, let alone offend, so he obediently opened the city gate and enlarged the army into the city.

At the night banquet that day, Jia Xu proposed to let the king of Loulan send a letter of state, condemning Wusun's aggression and oppression of Loulan over the years, and asking him to pay compensation and apologize. If he did not comply, he would immediately overwhelm the territory with a large army and destroy Wusun! The

king of Loulan did not expect that as soon as the Han people arrived in Loulan, they would intervene in the affairs of the Western Regions. So he didn't answer Jia Xu directly, but only thought about it for a few days, discussed it with the ministers of the DPRK and China, and made a decision.

Jia Xu also said that it was difficult to subdue the king of Loulan in a hurry, and he was not pressed, but only talked with him about the world.

The next day, King Loulan summoned the ministers of the court and the central government to discuss Jia Xu's proposal. Most of the ministers disagreed, and a small number even suggested that the Han people had bad intentions. How could the king of Loulan not know? But because of the strength of the Han people, he had no choice but to show the trick of 'dragging' and perfunctory Jia Xu.

However, Jia Xu was not discouraged, every time he saw King Loulan, he raised it once, and his tone became heavier and heavier, so that King Loulan was almost out of breath.

Then, in several successive court discussions, more and more ministers agreed to Jia Xu's proposal!

King Loulan finally had no excuse to shirk it, and after thinking about it for several days, he asked Jia Xu to enter the palace.

"You Han people want to meddle in the Western Regions?" King

Loulan was silent for a long time, and then said suddenly.

"That's right," Jia Xu said bluntly: "The Western Regions were the territory of my Han Dynasty hundreds of years ago. Now it's just a matter of taking it back!" "

I can agree to your requests. King Loulan's eyes narrowed and said, "But I have the conditions." "

Say. "I want weapons, armor, and war horses!" King Loulan's tone was extremely resolute

: "Otherwise, the fish will die and the net will be broken!" Jia Xu stared at him straight, looking at his heart hair, before he said: "Hehe, the fish is dead and the net is broken?" You Loulan, you don't have this ability!" Jia Xu stood up and walked out slowly: "My lord has always been generous, and since Her Royal Highness the princess has now become a princess, it is not impossible for her to provide you with some assistance to Loulan." But you'd better not do anything out of the ordinary, otherwise the princess won't be able to protect you!" Seeing

Jia Xu's back disappear, King Loulan exhaled heavily, and only then did he feel a chill in his back!

The next day, Loulan sent a letter of state, condemning Wusun's aggression and oppression, and offering to apologize for compensation.

With the revelation of this letter of state, the entire Western Regions suddenly had a turbulent dark tide and treacherous clouds.

In the post house, Ma Chao and Jia Xu sat opposite each other.

"Mr. Jia, I still don't understand, why do you want to take Wusun first?" Ma Chao said: "Wusun is the strongest country in the Western Regions, it is a hard bone, it is not easy to gnaw!"

Ma Chao had two doubts in his heart. First, Jia Xu acted too fast, and as soon as he arrived in Loulan, he forcibly demanded that the king of Loulan issue a letter of state, and secretly controlled all the important ministers of Loulan by unsightly means.

Second, if you want to do it, you have to find soft bones to gnaw, but I didn't expect Jia

Xu to take Wusun first! "Hehehe..." Jia Xu smiled and said: "It is precisely because Wusun is the strongest that he is knifed! The Western Regions are too complicated, and each country has its own ghosts and has different thoughts, and when we come here, first of all, we need to correct the name!"

"Correct name?".

"Yes, let all the countries know that we are the strongest, the most ruthless, and the most unprovoked! Deter them, and only after that, can we gradually achieve the goal of the lord!" Jia Xu sighed slightly, and said: "In the past hundred years, the Great Han has lost control of the Western Regions, and its power cannot be extended. This time, I want them to know that my Han people are more ruthless!" Ma

Chao suddenly said, "So what is Mr. Jia going to do?"

"Hehe, I have already made two preparations!" Jia Xu said confidently: "When I received the order of the lord, I secretly sent a lot of shadows to Wusun. And this time I was sure that Wusun would not give in, so tonight, we set out! By the time Wusun publicly refuted Loulan, our army was already in the city. When the time comes, he will cooperate with the shadows in the city and quickly attack the Red Valley City, the king of Wusun Dakunmi!

" Jia Xu said, his eyes narrowed, and a seeping cold light burst out from the narrow slit of his eyes: "Then... Slaughter the city!" Ma

Chao's heart was cold, and he couldn't help but shudder.

"Slaughter the city?"

"Yes!" Jia Xu's face showed excitement and hideousness: "Slaughtering the Wusun people of the Great Kunmi Division, one will deter Xiao Kunmi, and even force him to surrender, and the other will deter the Western Regions, so that the countries will not dare to look sideways

!" "At the same time, General Gao Shun will also unite with General Heyun Xu Huang to launch a final attack on the remnants of Jiankun, Hujie and the Xiongnu

!" "In this way..."Ma Chao's eyes lit up: "A big thing can be done!" "A big thing can be done!"

River clouds.

Now, in just a few months, the Heyun Fortress has changed dramatically.

Not only has the scale expanded nearly tenfold, but the city wall has continued to grow taller and thicker, completely becoming an iron-walled castle that can never be attacked!

On this day, Xu Huang called Lu Bu to the house.

"General Feng Xian sits.

Xu Huang stretched out his hand and motioned for Lu Bu to sit down.

"The commander of the corps called the last general to come, I don't know what is important

?" Lu Bu's heart turned: "Could it be that there is another military operation?" "That's

right." Xu Huang nodded with a smile and said, "A few days ago, General Juyan Huang Feiying passed a letter, asking my department to cooperate with General Huang's department to assist Mr. Jia in pacifying the Western Regions. General Ben thought about it all night, and felt that General Fengxian, you were the most suitable for this operation!

" Lu Bu was overjoyed when he heard this, and he rubbed his hands and said: "The bones of the last general have been rusty for a while, if there is a mission, it would be better!"

"This mission is to attack the remnants of Hujie and Western Dingling. Xu Huang said: "However, this mission has a lot of difficulties. Xu Huang stared at Lu Bu and said solemnly: "Because of the lord's strategy, this battle is not in the plan, and the Youzhou headquarters will hoard the materials of the southern expedition from now on, that is to say, this general will not provide you with grain and grass logistics

!" Lu Bu frowned, and instantly stretched out again, and said: "What does the corps commander mean?"

"Raise war with war!" Xu Huang's murderous aura flashed between his eyebrows: "When you meet people and kill people, you will slaughter animals when you meet them, and you will raise war with war!" "Raise war with war!"

Ju Yan and Gao Shun also said the same to Ma Dai, Ma Xiu, and Ma Tie.

"The Huns and Jiankun who want to be killed are scattered

!" "No!" On

May 15, the first Tianxia Academic Exchange Conference ended successfully in Youzhou University.

Li Tianlong was busy for half a month, and finally relaxed, and invited Zheng Xuan, Pang Degong and other 1,000 university scholars and furniture to the palace to prepare for a night banquet for all the monarchs.

The staggered and hearty drinking was not mentioned, and it was not until midnight that Li Tianlong returned to the bedroom to sleep.

Early the next morning, Gu Yong, Yan Gang, Zhang Lu, Di Rong, Xun You, Fa Yan and others came to ask for their resignation.

"Lord Wang, I'll wait to come and ask for my resignation!" Xun

Yu stepped forward, bowed slightly, and said, "I am busy with affairs, so I have to leave."

Li Tianlong nodded slightly, and said: "This time, I have not entertained you, and pressed, when you come to Youzhou next time, this king will definitely be a guide and introduce Yuyang to you." After

that, Gou You and the others bowed to Zheng Xuan, Pang Degong and other old-timers and said goodbye.

Cai Yong looked at Gu Yong, who was solemnly kowtowing to him, and couldn't help but sigh slightly. Gu Yong was his student, but now he was prepared by heaven, and they each belonged to different forces, so how could he not let Cai Yong be entangled? Unfortunately, the matter had come to this point, so he could only give up with a few words of encouragement.

Then, Zhang Zhao also came to Gu Yong's side and said a few words to him, but asked Gu Yong to bring some words and greetings to Zhang Tong.

As for Xun You, he stood with Xun or Xun.

"Uncle, aren't you going back to the Central Plains?" Xun You looked forward to it.

How much he wanted to pull Uncle Xun or into Cao*'s chariot, but unfortunately he was busy with affairs before, this time he saw what Uncle meant, and Jing was unwilling to leave Youzhou immediately, which made him quite entangled in his heart One by one, the person of the King of Yuyang, Uncle I am afraid that he will not be able to escape from the palm of his hand!

Xun Or shook his head slightly: "I want to stay in Youzhou for a few days, and ask all the seniors for knowledge, you can go back."

Xun You sighed, turned around and left.

At this point, the World Academic Exchange Conference has come to an end.

The scholars' knowledge has made great progress in just half a month, and the princes of Beida have also explored a lot of 'inside information' from Youzhou, and Li Tianlong has also obtained what he thinks about day and night.

Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jin, Sima Yi... These Zhengtai and young people were all arranged to enter Youzhou College for further study.

At the same time, a large number of outstanding scholars are willing to stay in Youzhou, or enter the government, become officials, or enter the academy and become professors.

Youzhou's strength and heritage have multiplied within half a month.

The

weather gradually became hotter, and Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Sima Yi, three little Zhengtai, carried their schoolbags on their backs, left the academy, and braved the scorching sun to come to the central square.

"Xiao Liangzi, are you really going to do this?"

Pang Tong was surprised.

"Yes. Zhuge Shell nodded coolly: "I am determined to become a mercenary, exercise in this summer vacation, it is best to be promoted to a fifth-level mercenary, and establish a mercenary group, Xiao Yizi also agreed! Why, Brother Tong, are you scared?"

"How come!" Pang Tong hurriedly shook his head and denied: "I will be afraid? It is impossible!"

Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi immediately had a 'I don't believe' expression, which made Pang Tong extremely annoyed.

"Go and go, go to the mercenaries immediately!" Pang Tong snorted and strode into the mercenary guild. Behind him, Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi smiled and followed.

It's early June, and it's getting hot.

In the backyard of the palace, Li Tianlong and Cai Yan sat under the big tree, Yu Linglong, Diao Chan and Zhang Ning were on one side, Zhen Mi and Qiao Ying Qiao Yu were kicking shuttlecocks on the side, and Xiaoxiao and Yuanyuan Zhao Yu were all busy.

Li Tianlong stroked Cai Yan's bulging belly, and his face was full of smiles.

Cai Yan has been pregnant since November last year, and it has been eight months now, and in two months, she will give birth to a prince. Now Cai Yan, with a shiny pretty face, a quiet intellectual beauty, mixed with a hint of maternal brilliance, the whole person looks much more mature.

In the blink of an eye, the annual ring of history has turned to the spring of 196.

Since June 193, the first Tianxia Academic Exchange Conference was held, and at the end of June, Li Tianlong got married again, with four wives. At that time, the princes of the Central Plains, the lords of the Western Regions, and the queen of Yingzhou Yamatai, Himihu, gathered in Youzhou. After that, Cao* paid a certain price and took away the Xiahou brothers and Chen Fu.

In September, Princess Cai Yan gave birth to a daughter for Li Tianlong, who was named Li Qiuyue by Li Tianlong's unscrupulous father because she was born in autumn.

In the early autumn, Jia Xu and Ma Chaoda broke Wusun Da Kunmi, slaughtered the king city of Kunmi, Chigu City, built more than 10 Beijing views, and shocked the Western Regions.

At the end of autumn, Lu Bu, a general under Xu Huang of the Shanggu Army, attacked the remnants of Hujie and Ding Ling, fed the war with war, killed and wounded countless people, built a fortress in Beijing, and forced the two clans to surrender, become slaves, and contribute to their strength.

At the same time, Gao Shun's Ma Xiu, Ma Tie, and Ma Dai broke the remnants of the Xiongnu and Jiankun and forced them to surrender.

In March of the following year, Wusun Xiaokunmi sent his son as a hostage and declared him a minister.

In May, all the countries of the Western Regions issued a letter of state, and Li Tianlong then set up Xizhou, with Jia Xu as the state pastor and Ma Chao as the commander of the army, to lead the Western Regions.

In June, the remnants of the Eastern Ding Zero Army fought several battles with the Yuyang Army, and were defeated again and again, with countless casualties, and finally moved west in panic and disappeared.

So far, the hidden dangers in the west and north have been fully lifted.

When Li Tianlong put his energy in the northwest, the Central Plains ignited the flames of war again.

In July 193, Yuan Shao's general Zhang Jaw was defeated by Cao * and returned in vain.

In the spring of 194, Cao*, who had been resting for a year, sent troops to attack Shouchun at the end of March. At the end of July, Yuan Shu was proclaimed emperor in Hefei. At the beginning of September, Yuan Shu, who had only been the emperor for a month, was defeated by Cao's * general Xiahou Chun and vomited blood and died.

After Cao* defeated Yuan Shu, he did not adopt the strategy suggested by Chen Gong to attack Xuzhou, but turned his gun and fought a big battle with Liu Biao, seizing the entire territory of the Lujiang River.

At this point, Cao * occupied the entire territory of Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and his power increased greatly, and he was in the limelight for a while.

In June, Yizhou Mu Liu Yan died of illness, and Li Tianlong personally went to mourn.

In July, Zhang Lu killed the minister of Yizhou and seized Hanzhong.

In mid-July, Fan Chou, who occupied a section of Hanzhong, was defeated and killed by Zhang Lu. At this point, Dong Zhuo's old department was completely destroyed.

In August, Liu Zhang returned to Yizhou, took over as the state minister, and sent the general Yan Yan as the commander to send 1 million troops to attack Zhang Lu. Zhang Lu was defeated, defended Baishui Pass, and hung up the free battle card. The confrontation between the two armies is not mentioned.

In September, Sun Quan defeated Yan Baihu, according to the five counties of Wujun, Danyang, Huiji, Poyang, and Linhai, and went to Luoyang, seeking Yangzhou Mu and Zhennanhou.

In October, Sun Quan's attack on Yuzhang County was blocked, and he was defeated by the hands of the local Shanyue tribe, and the general Han Dang was seriously injured and almost died. Later, Sun Quan attacked Linchuan and Jian'an counties, all of which were blocked and defeated by the local Shanyue tribe.

In the spring of 195, Cao * attacked Jingzhou on a large scale, but Liu Biaofen did not give in.

The elite cavalry and infantry of the two armies fought in Yexian in March, and they could not hold each other.

Liu Biao's Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue brothers fought with Cao *'s Gou You, Chen Gong and other military divisions.

In July, Cao * used a divisive tactic to make Liu Biao's generals Cai Mao and Wen Ping dislike, and then took advantage of the weakness to enter and defeat Liu Biao's army! At that time, Liu Biao's elite died in a battle, and then could not resist Cao *'s attack, and retreated in defeat after defeat.

In August, at the request of Liu Biao, Yuan Shao sent troops to attack Chenliu in two ways, one with Zhang Jaw as his general, and the other with Gao Ran as his general, and Wuguan to attack Nanyang.

Cao * had no choice but to return to the army to resist, and Liu Biao won a chance to breathe.

In October, Chen Liu fell, and the east gate of Yanzhou was opened.

At the same time, Cao * took Xun You's plan and quietly dispatched an iron cavalry to contact Wang Yun, Yang Biao and other royalist ministers in Luoyang City.

Then, Cao * used the Son of Heaven as bait and set up a heavy ambush in Yingchuan, breaking Yuan Shao's personal pursuit of soldiers and horses!

Yuan Shao's internal instability and vitality were greatly damaged, so he had to suspend military operations.

Cao * won the opportunity, waved his army south, and broke through Xiangyang!

Liu Biao was defeated, like a lost dog, and quietly fled to Youzhou under the escort of Wen Ping, Kuai Yue and others.

At this point, Cao* occupied the northern part of Jingzhou.

In November, Cao's army once again gathered its troops, and when it wanted to threaten a great victory, it took advantage of the situation to go south, but was blocked by the Yangtze River naval division led by Jiang Qin in Chibi, and was unable to advance an inch after several defeats.

In desperation, Cao * had no choice but to stop, turn the spearhead, and point directly at Si Li.

196 years.

It's March, and spring is blooming.

Li Tianlong was sitting on the Taishi chair, teasing his two-and-a-half-year-old daughter, with a warm smile on his face.

"Bangbang

" "Come in." Li Tianlong didn't raise his head, and said softly.

The "crunch"

door was pushed open, and Guo Jia walked in with his figure-eight beard.

Behind him, Fu Zhu, Tian Feng, Chen Qun, Jia Xu, Zhang Zhao, Chen Deng, Xi Zhicai and other literati military advisors, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Yan Liang, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, Ma Chao, Liyi, Gan Ning and other military generals, rushed in.

"Sit.

Li Tianlong waved his hand casually and asked everyone to sit down.

Xiao Li Qiuyue saw so many people coming to her, staring at Guo Jia with a pair of big black eyes watery, and while stretching out her hands, she called uncle. Guo Jia laughed, took Li Qiuyue from Li Tianlong's arms, teased him twice, and passed it to Fu Zhu.

In this way, Xiao Li Qiuyue was passed around, and finally returned to Li Tianlong's arms.

"Someone.

Li Tianlong snorted, and a maid walked in.

"Take the young lady down.

After the maid took Li Qiuyue away, Li Tianlong smiled and said, "Do you know why this king summoned all of you back?"

Guo Jia said: "It's time to go south." "

Yes, it's time to go south. Li Tianlong bowed his head and said: "I will call you all back today, just to work together and complete the battle!" "

Fengxiao, let's talk about the army construction and military deployment in the past few years.

Guo Jia nodded and said: "Because of the expansion of the territory, the army continues to grow, and by this year, the nine legions, with a total of 951 million regular elite troops and 8 million logistics, totaling 1751 million.

"The three legions of the Western Regions and Mobei are three million, led by three generals, Ma Chao, Gao Shun, and Xu Huang, and are stationed in Shanshan, Juyan, and Heyun.

"A legion of one million in the north, led by General Zhao Yun, stationed in the Beihai camp.

"A regiment of one million in Liaodong is stationed in Lihan.

"A regiment of one million in Jizhou is stationed in Linzi, Qingzhou. "

Commanded by General Yan Liang, commanded by General Liyi," a legion of one million in Hanoi, commanded by General Zhang Fei, stationed in Huai County. "Hetao has a corps of one million, led by General Gao Shun, and is divided into two divisions, one stationed in Hedong and the other at the junction of Yong and Liang. "

The 150,000 naval divisions were commanded by General Gan Ning and were divided into three divisions, one under the command of Governor Zhou Tai, which was the Yellow River Naval Division, and one under the command of Governor Jiang Qin, who was the Yangtze River Naval Division: General Gan led one by himself, crisscrossing the Liaodong Sea and connecting the two major naval divisions of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River.

"In addition, there is the Jiangnan Shanyue Army, roughly one million, and the commander is the Shanyue General Ke Xun.

After listening to this, Li Tianlong nodded slightly.

"With the addition of the Shanyue Army, our army has ten corps, encircling the Central Plains and Jiangnan, and can launch a general attack at any time!" Li

Tianlong said: "Okay, then, Yuan Hao, what are your nicknames?"

Tian Feng said with a straight face: "According to last year's census statistics, the total population of Youzhou exceeds 450 million! Up to now, there should be growth.

"There are 130 million in Youzhou, 80 million in Jizhou, 60 million in Bingzhou, 70 million in Liangzhou, 60 million in Qingzhou, and 50 million in Hetao, Northern Xinjiang, Mobei, Hedong, and Hanoi. "

Hehehe..."Li Tianlong said with a smile: "The population is growing quite fast." In just three years, it has doubled. "

Last year, the per capita grain output reached 600 stones, and the total output was about 27 billion stones. As of today, the seven granaries of Jizhou, Qingzhou, Hanoi, Hedong, Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Liangzhou have hoarded a total of 1.30 billion stone of grain.

"One billion thirty million... Well, it's enough!" Li Tianlong said with a smile.

After Tian Feng finished speaking, he retreated, got up and arched his hand again, and said: "Up to now, there are more than 530 pastures in the grasslands of Northern Xinjiang and Hetao, about 5 million domesticated horses, and a total of 50 million cattle and sheep. "Chidao is all over Beidazhou County and extends in all directions. In total, there are six national highways. There are three east-west directions, one of which starts from Lihancheng in the east, passes through the five cities of Fuxi, Shennong, Xuanyuan, Yuwang and Shiqin, and reaches Longcheng until Longcheng, and finally ends in Heyun; the second starts from Lihancheng in the east, passes through Liaodong and Liaoxi, passes through Yuyang and Shanggu, passes through Bingzhou, passes through Jinyang, crosses the Hetao, connects Juyan, and finally arrives at Shanshan: the third east starts from Linzi, passes through Jizhou, Hanoi, Hedong, crosses the Hetao, enters Liangzhou, and extends to Shanshan in the Western Regions. Two longitudinal, one starts from the Beihai camp, passes through Qincheng, Yuyang, Jizhou, and Linzi; second, starts from Longcheng, passes through Mobei and grassland, goes down to Merge Prefecture, and reaches Xie County in Hedong; third, starts from Heyun, crosses Mobei, goes south to Hetao, and connects Wuwei in Liangzhou.

"Okay!" Li Tianlong laughed: "With such a galloping road extending in all directions, our army is on call, pointing where to fight, wouldn't it be fast! Zibu, it's your turn!"

Zhang Zhao got up, saluted, and said: "Last year, the total revenue of commercial taxes has reached 220 million gold, of which 150 million gold clubs have been invested in the construction of galloping roads, post stations, hospitals, schools and other facilities, 50 million gold is military expenditure, and the remaining 20 million gold is in stock for use. Agricultural taxes are hoarded on the basis of grain.

After Zhang Zhao finished speaking, Chen Qun got up and said: "As of this year, within the jurisdiction of the lord, the government decree is smooth and the law is strict. The total number of government officials, errand officials, and city guards in various localities has reached 1.7 million, and at the same time, courts are under construction in various places, Youzhou and Jizhou have been completed, and several other prefectures have also reached the final stage.

Then, Jia Xu stood up and said, "So far, the regular members of the dark department have reached 1.3 million She, and the peripheral members have reached more than 3 million. Regardless of the jurisdiction of the lord, or Jiangnan, Shuzhong, and the Central Plains, they are all all over the eyeliner. With

that, Jia Xu sat down.

Beiren reported the data he was responsible for one by one, and Li Tianlong nodded in admiration from time to time, his face was very happy.
