I have to say that Boss Cao's subordinates have very high mobility.

In just a few days, Boss Cao's message against thieves spread throughout several surrounding counties and counties, and of course also reached Luoyang.

As for whether Boss Cao did this on purpose or accidentally, it is not known. Anyway, the whole of Luoyang is now discussing Boss Cao's appeal against thieves.

"This Cao Mengde is really a loyal minister of my great Han Dynasty!" Commoner A said while looking at the slogan.

"Yes, yes, the emperor has not given the order yet, and the general who conquered the south has started to hunt for thieves. He is really a loyal minister of my great man. With such a loyal minister, why should I, a great man, be worried?"

"That is, if all the princes in the world are like Cao Mengde, I, the great Han Dynasty, will have peace in the world."

"Well, that's right. But the same goes for Lu Bu and Liu Bei, especially Liu Bei. I heard that he always said that he was the emperor's uncle when meeting people. But as a result, the emperor decided to make Luoyang his capital, and he didn't even send an envoy. What's his intention?

How cruel!"

The people in Luoyang City were discussing this letter non-stop.

Similarly, Liu Xie also saw this letter, but he had no special thoughts about it.

He knew very well that this was just an excuse for Boss Cao to expand his power.

However, Liu Xie did not intend to expose or stop Boss Cao's actions. Instead, he wanted to encourage this behavior.

Because Liu Xie has now mobilized all his main forces to Hongnong, preparing to destroy the remaining Xiliang army in a wave. Therefore, he urgently needs to find something to do for the surrounding princes, so that they have no time to harass him.

So, on the second day, an imperial edict was sent from Luoyang and delivered directly to Boss Cao.

This imperial edict directly affirmed the correctness of Boss Cao's sending troops to attack Lu Bu and Liu Bei, and praised Boss Cao's selfless behavior.

Later, Liu Xie directly issued orders through the system to the players who had arrived in Hongnong, asking them to head towards Hangu and Tongguan.

"Brothers, the war has finally begun! I have been waiting for this day for too long!" A player in the orphanage said excitedly after hearing the system prompt.

"Yeah! Damn it, last time, we laid an ambush in Wancheng for half a month, but Zhang Xiu, the coward, surrendered directly, and we didn't even get a hair out of him."

"Go ahead, brother, you are so brave! Don't you know that the generals leading the army this time are Zhang Xiu and Xu Huang?"

"Ah? Zhang Xiu leads the army? This time, doesn't it mean that only us players will participate? Why are there NPCs involved?"

"Of course, our military achievements are not enough and we cannot unite the army. We can only let NPCs take over."

"Brother, I really can't refute what you said. However, didn't Zhang Xiu just come over? Why can he lead troops now? This old emperor is too careless."

"No, brother, you are really brave. You dare to call me Emperor, 666."

"Okay, joking aside, I can guess why the emperor asked Zhang Xiu to participate in the crusade against the Xiliang Army. It's very simple, isn't it just to submit a petition?"

"A certificate of nomination? Brother, when you say that, I understand!"

"I don't care if we apply for a certificate of honor or not, I just know that we are going to get rich again! I heard that the Xiliang army in Yongzhou are all weak chickens now, so there is no pressure for us to fight."

"Yes, yes, I've heard that too. But there are still some elites in Hangu and Tongguan, so it's hard to fight them."

"It's hard to beat the rough guys, but I'll beat the elites!" One player said domineeringly.

"Yes, we are players, how can we be intimidated by a group of NPCs? Just do it!"

Players don't really care who their general is, what they care about is how many points they can earn.

However, ordinary players may not care, but those legion leader players who play legions must care.

Therefore, after knowing that Zhang Xiu was the general in the battle of Yongzhou, Nanshan and others paid a collective visit to Zhang Xiu.

And Zhang Xiu was very aware of the dominant position of these people who claimed to be players, but were actually the emperor's own soldiers, in this battle.

It can be said that these heavenly soldiers have the attribute of immortality. As long as the generals are not too stupid, they will definitely win the situation.

However, these still require the cooperation of the heavenly soldiers, so Zhang Xiu still took the time to meet with Nanshan and the others.

"General Zhang, this is our first meeting. Please take good care of me from now on!" Li Jichen said to Zhang Xiu with a smile.

As the elected representative, Li Jichen was naturally the first to greet Zhang Xiu.

"You're welcome, please take a seat!" Zhang Xiu was also very polite and directly invited Li Jichen and others into the house given to him by Liu Xie.

Li Jichen, Nanshan and others were not polite and entered the courtyard directly, and soon the maids brought some food.

"Come on, everyone, drink up this cup. From now on, I ask you to work together with me to defeat the bandit army!" Zhang Xiu picked up the wine cup and said to Li Jichen and others.

Li Jichen and others did not show any pretense, they directly picked up the wine cup and drank it in one gulp.

"General, you're welcome. We will treat the general as our leader." Li Jichen said with the same smile.

"Actually, I came to see the general today because I want to ask him something. I wonder when the general plans to advance the army?" Li Jichen asked.

Zhang Xiu was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Jichen's words, and then asked curiously: "Everyone, are you so anxious?"

"Of course! General, if the traitors are not destroyed, we will feel uneasy!"

"We have been deeply favored by the Emperor and have nothing to repay. We can only do our best to destroy the rebels!"

"Moreover, the strength of the Yongzhou bandit army has declined significantly. If we don't defeat the bandit army as soon as possible at this time, wouldn't we waste this golden opportunity?"

Zhang Xiu also nodded when he heard Li Jichen's words.

"However, Yongzhou is easy to fight, but Hangu and Tongguan are not easy to fight. This matter needs to be discussed again. Attacking hastily will not only increase casualties, but it may not be able to defeat both levels." Although Zhang Xiu also wants to go.

We are going to fight Yongzhou, but Hangu and Tongguan are the tigers blocking the road, so they are not easy to fight.

Li Jichen smiled directly when he heard Zhang Xiu's words.

"The general doesn't know something. We have people in these two levels. It's easy to break through these two levels."

"Huh?" Zhang Xiu was stunned when he heard Li Jichen's words.

He really didn't know when this news would get in!

Seemingly sensing Zhang Xiu's doubts, Li Jichen told Zhang Xiu what happened between Zhang Xuanji and Wang Fang.

After Zhang Xiu heard this, he was very happy.

This is a great joy from heaven! As long as he can easily win the two levels, Zhang Xiu is confident that he will beat the shit out of the Xiliang Army in Yongzhou!

"Okay! If that's the case, then we will send troops tomorrow!"

"General, since we will send troops tomorrow, I am willing to be the vanguard!" Yuan Zhang stood up immediately after hearing Zhang Xiu's words about sending troops.

After all, this is what the players have agreed upon.

Since Yuan Zhang has a mission, in order to maximize interests, the players unanimously agreed that Yuan Zhang should be the vanguard.
