The Han army moved very quickly.

On the third day after convening the parliament, Liu Feng, who had sorted out all the matters, led tens of thousands of Han troops towards the street pavilion.

After Liu Bei left 10,000 Han troops to hand over to Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, he led the remaining 30,000 troops toward Longxi County.

At the beginning, the total strength of the Han army brought by Liu Bei from Liangzhou was about 40,000.

However, in the past few days, Zhuge Liang sent another 10,000 Han troops from Liangzhou for Liu Bei.

Zhuge Liang is the most powerful person in the Three Kingdoms. As long as he is given enough time, he will continue to provide troops, money and food to the front line.

As a result, the total strength of the Han army in Liangzhou reached 50,000.

If we include the nearly 10,000 Qiang and Di cavalry troops and the 10,000 Han troops commanded by Mi Yang, the total strength of the Han army in the Northern Expedition this year has reached 70,000.

These 70,000 are all serious soldiers who can go directly to the battlefield!

This is only the early stages.

As time goes by, especially after Liu Bei consolidates the territory of the three counties of Longyou, the total strength of the Han army will gradually increase.

In the foreseeable future, it is very likely that the total strength of the Han army in Guanzhong will approach 100,000.

One hundred thousand regular troops, this powerful force, even though Liu Bei had decades of experience in commanding armies, he had never had it before.

It can be said that in order to win the Northern Expedition, Liu Bei spent almost all the savings of the Han Dynasty over the years on this.

Compared with the Battle of Hanzhong back then, the suppression was more thorough!

In order to completely allow the Han Dynasty to turn into a dragon again and leap across the vast sky, when Liu Bei led his army to leave Tianshui County, he also officially issued an edict to go to Jingzhou.

This edict was naturally given to the general of chariots and cavalry, Jingzhou Mu Zhang Fei.

The edict carried Liu Bei's eagerness and arrived outside Xiangyang City a few days later.

When Zhang Fei learned that Liu Bei had sent an edict, he hurriedly summoned all the Jingzhou ministers in Xiangyang City.

Under Zhang Fei's urgent summons, Deng Zhi, Guan Ping, Zhao Lei, Xiang Lang, Wang Fu and other important ministers came to the meeting hall one after another.

When all the Jingzhou ministers learned that the emperor's edict had been delivered, their faces showed the same joy as Zhang Fei.

The reason why they were so happy was that this edict proved that Liu Bei had not forgotten their existence.

The previous Jingzhou Mu, Guan Yu, died of illness in the second year of Zhang Wu. It was also in that year that Zhang Fei officially succeeded Guan Yu and became the new Jingzhou Mu.

When Zhang Fei first took over as the pastor of Jingzhou, he had the mentality of wanting to do something big.

After all, Jingzhou has a special geographical location. As a shepherd in such a strategically important place, it is almost impossible to fight without a battle.

But what Zhang Fei never expected was that it had been nearly three years since he took over as Jingzhou Muman, but during these three years, he had not fought a single battle.

The most important reason for this is that before Liu Bei left, he gave many instructions to Zhang Fei to give priority to the development of production in Jingzhou and not to start a war without authorization.

In order to ensure this, Liu Bei also left Deng Zhi in Jingzhou to assist Zhang Fei.

From a strategic perspective, Liu Bei's arrangement is not wrong.

Because since the Battle of Chibi, Jingzhou has been in the flames of war almost continuously. The wealthy country back then has long since disappeared in the endless flames of war.

All that was left was devastation all over the place.

Otherwise, with the national strength of Jingzhou at that time, Jingzhou alone could contribute 100,000 troops.

Liu Bei just wanted to take advantage of the peaceful situation in Jiangdong in recent years to restore Jingzhou's national power as soon as possible. This was what Zhang Fei needed to do most.

It's not that Zhang Fei didn't understand Liu Bei's thoughts. Even if he didn't understand, Deng Zhi would explain it to him.

Zhang Fei initially wanted to develop Jingzhou for Liu Bei obediently.

But there is a nephew named Mi Yang who is really "abominable".

The Battle of Xicheng and the Battle of Liangzhou, these two great victories completely pushed Mi Yang to the throne of the number one general of the Han Dynasty.

Zhang Fei's seat of government was just downstream of Liangzhou. In the past few years, he had watched Mi Yang win great victories one after another, causing the world to marvel and praise him.

But what about him?

The first year is to maintain health, the second year is to farm, and the third year is to idle.

Although he clearly occupies the four-pronged land of Jingzhou, Zhang Fei cannot take the initiative to send troops to fight a battle. This life is worse than in Brazil.

Even now, Mi Yang has become a general with a higher status than him.

Zhang Fei has a straightforward personality and will definitely not be jealous of Mi Yang, but he will feel jealous!

As a close relative of Liu Bei, how could he not want to fight Wei Gou, and how could he not want to die for Liu Bei's great cause?

What's more, he is the warlike Zhang Fei!

And the most important thing is that as time goes by, even Zhang Fei's subordinates gradually become dissatisfied with the status quo.

No wonder.

Whenever Mi Yang wins a great victory, the names of Liangzhou's subordinates will be resounding throughout the world.

As the shepherds compare with the shepherds, the subordinates will naturally compare with the subordinates.

In contrast, even Deng Zhi, who has a calm personality, can hardly sit still.

As a Han Chinese, who doesn’t have an eager heart for achievement?

Whenever people talk about the subjects of Liangzhou in advance, they always compare them with the subjects of Jingzhou.

Under this comparison, everyone was even more worried.

Especially Guan Ping among everyone.

At that time, he was famous all over the world for his battle with the police, but to this day, his only notable record is his battle with the police.

If I had known earlier, I would have hugged Zi Sheng's thigh and followed him!

Everyone had different ideas, but one thing was unified, that is, they all looked at the edict in the hand of the envoy with very eager eyes.

If the edict can be eaten, I think everyone would have picked up their chopsticks.

As soon as the envoy Dong Yung entered the lobby, he was frightened by the eager eyes of everyone.

After so many missions, this was the first time he encountered such eyes.

But Zhang Fei is more direct.

Seeing that all the ministers had arrived, Zhang Fei jumped up from his seat, wiped a lot of his beard under his lips, and then walked directly to Dong Yun eagerly.

Dong Yun saw Zhang Fei walking toward him impatiently. He quickly bowed to Zhang Fei to stop him and said: "General Chariot and Cavalry, be decent, be decent!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! No matter how impatient you are, you still have to wait until I finish reading the contents of the edict.

It's a pity that Dong Yun is not facing Mi Yang today, but Zhang Fei, who has never paid attention to decorum.

Zhang Fei laughed and "took" the edict from Dong Yun's hand, and then quickly unfolded the edict in his hand and read it.

This move was naturally considered disrespectful, but Zhang Fei didn't care.

Go sue him if you can.

Although Zhang Fei behaves like a reckless man, in fact Zhang Fei's literary quality is still higher than Liu Bei's.

Therefore, Zhang Fei quickly read the contents of the edict.

After reading the contents of the edict and learning that it was indeed Liu Bei who asked him to send troops, Zhang Fei immediately shouted to Deng Zhi who was leaning behind him:

"Get my spear quickly!"

Zhang Fei's voice was so loud that Deng Zhi, who was very close at hand, was stunned by Zhang Fei's loud shouting.

But soon Deng Zhi's slight dizziness was dispelled by the joy in her heart.

Although Zhang Fei did not explicitly state what was in the edict, what else could happen if he allowed the cavalry general to take the spear?

At this moment, Deng Zhi went to the weapons rack at the rear with a face full of joy, and delivered the heavy steel spear to Zhang Fei's hands.

Seeing the actions of Zhang Fei and Deng Zhi in front of him, Dong Yun simply wanted to hide his face and run away.

You are just a general on horseback. Deng Shangshu, you are a famous scholar!

Why don’t you pay attention to propriety anymore?

And Deng Zhi was not the only one like this. Seeing the anxious and flustered Jingzhou ministers in the hall, Dong Yun couldn't help but have an idea in his mind.

There is simply no decency in Jingzhou today!

But what Dong Yun didn't know was that all of this was suppressed.

After taking the spear in his hand, Zhang Fei told Deng Zhi very quickly: "I will leave the subsequent supply of food, grass and troops to you.

I will lead my troops to Yiyang County first!"

Zhang Fei still respected Deng Zhi, who was a celebrity.

After saying this, Zhang Fei hurriedly walked out of the lobby with the spear in his hand.

In the past, because he might have had a premonition that Liu Bei's edict would arrive in the near future, Zhang Fei had hoarded some heavy troops in Yiyang County.

Now he only needs to rush to Yiyang and lead his army into Nanyang County in an instant.
