Liu Bei shouted angrily: "Stop your mouth! How can you make such words without a king or a father?"

Xu Shu had nothing to say, smiled bitterly, and sighed.

Liu Bei was shocked and quickly stepped forward and bowed deeply, blaming himself: "Yuanzhi must not blame him! I am not blaming Yuanzhi, but I just think that our ministers should serve the country with loyalty! I hope Yuanzhi can understand!" Xu Shu smiled bitterly, "Uncle is so serious! Uncle does not need to apologize to me, how can I afford it in the next step!"

When Liu Bei heard Xu Shu’s words were wrong, he quickly knelt down. Xu Shu was shocked when he saw this. Liu Bei kowtowed and apologized: “If the sir think that he offended the sir, then Bei apologized to the sir!”

Xu Shu quickly knelt down and bowed: "Lord, please get up quickly, I am so frightened!"

Liu Bei kowtowed and said, "If Mr. still blames Bei in his heart, he will not dare to get up."

Xu Shu bowed in panic and at a loss, "How dare I blame the lord? Please get up quickly!" Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief and said with lingering fear: "Bie thought he was leaving me!" Xu Shu shook his head, "I will not leave the lord!" Liu Bei smiled and quickly stepped forward to help Xu Shu up.

Liu Bei begged sincerely: "Yuanzhi, now the big thing is difficult. Don't be suspicious when you go to Yuanzhi in the courtyard, work together with me!" Xu Shu clasped his fists and said, "I will definitely be a good job!"

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Okay, okay!"

Xu Shu hesitated for a moment, clasped his fists and said, "As a subordinate of the lord, some words are not loyal if they are good! Lord, you must not do anything to collude with alien races! I understand my lord's painstaking efforts. My lord just wants to use the Xianbei people to revitalize the prestige of the Han Dynasty! But have you ever thought about it? The Xianbei people are now very powerful. If they are allowed to destroy Lu Bu and Cao Cao, will the world become a Han Dynasty? The world will only become a Xianbei people! At that time, the lord will be ashamed of the ancestors of the Liu family and the Dawn of China. Where will the lord face the ancestors of the Liu family under the nine springs, and how will the lord face the ancestors of the Liu family and the millions of the Chinese ancestors?"

Liu Bei said: "What Yuan Zhi said is reasonable. However, Yuan Zhi did not seem to have thought it carefully. I have considered it carefully. The battle between the Xianbei people and Lu Bu and Cao Cao cannot be easy! It is definitely not a short time to decide the victory or defeat! In this battle, no matter who wins or loses, both sides will inevitably be greatly damaged. We will expand our territory and accumulate strength in the process. When the war is over, we will sweep across the Central Plains, take over Cao Cao's position, and then drive the Xianbei people out, and then launch an army to exterminate Lu Bu. As long as we reach this point, the general trend of the world will be under control!"

Xu Shu smiled bitterly. He was very surprised that Liu Bei could come up with such a plan, and he also believed that the possibility of this plan was relatively high. However, he did not agree. He believed that in life, he could not use any means to achieve his goals. There should always be something that must be adhered to! Collusion with foreign races, even if he finally gained a country, it would inevitably cause immeasurable trauma to China, not to mention that such behavior is really despicable! However, although Xu Shu thought so, he did not object. He felt that since the lord had made up his mind, he would have no choice. If Liu Bei was destined to bear the eternal infamy, let him bear it with Liu Bei!

After meeting with Cao Cao, Zhang Lang returned to Luoyang. As soon as he returned to Luoyang, Zhang Lang issued an order to reorganize the army. The specific plan for reorganization is: Long Tao's army was reorganized into 50,000 infantry and 50,000 cavalry, including 20,000 heavy infantry and 20,000 heavy armored cavalry; Canglang Army and the Cavalry Army were inconvenient to organize the pure cavalry, and the number of people should be replenished to 100,000 as soon as possible; the remaining corpses were 100,000 people, and each legion was reorganized into 80,000 infantry and 20,000 cavalry, and heavy infantry with a scale of 10,000 were established among the infantry.

Zhang Lang's military reorganization plan has not changed much, and the scale has not changed at all. The most important change is to adapt the original pure infantry legion into a mixed infantry and cavalry legion, and at the same time increase the scale of heavy infantry, which greatly improves the combat effectiveness of each legion. Although the change is not very large, the expense is not small.

In the next few months, Zhang Lang spent all his energy on preparing for the war. During this period, Zhang Lang sent many meticulous works into the grassland to investigate the situation. Cao Cao in the east was also doing the same thing as Zhang Lang. Almost all his energy was transferred to the preparations for the war against the Xianbei.

It's the Spring Festival again. It's snowing heavily on this day. It seems that the whole north of the Yangtze River is wearing a thick white cotton coat. People have put on new clothes. There is a festive scene in the big and small cities. Children are joking, adults are busy posting Spring Festival couplets, and the teams of community fire parades are one by one. Every household is raising smoke, and the unique fragrance of glutinous rice cakes echoes in the cold air.

At this time, in Luoyang and Xuchang, Zhang Lang and Cao Cao, and the civil and military officials and generals under their command did not look like they were having a holiday at all. They were nervously planning a sign of going to war.

...

It was midnight and the meeting was over. Zhang Lang came down to the pond in the backyard accompanied by Dong Ying and Huang Yueying. At this time, the snow was thick and the person stood in the snow. In just a moment, his head and body were covered with crystal snowflakes. With a slight shaking, the snowflakes fell. Zhang Lang looked at the sky and said with emotion: "I feel like I am dreaming when I am in the heavy snow!"

He turned his head and looked at the two women, and saw that the two women's hair and clothes were covered with thick white velvet, just like an elf in the snow.

Zhang Lang hurriedly took the hands of the two women and ran into the nearby water pavilion. The three of them dusted off the snowflakes on their bodies. Huang Yueying took a slender hand and took a little snowflake and looked at it curiously, "This little thing is crystal clear, nothing is more beautiful than it!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a little snowflake on her finger melted away because of her body temperature, turning into a drop of water, and it slid down her fingers.

Dong Ying couldn't help but sigh: "The more beautiful something is, the shorter its life will be!" Huang Yueying nodded in agreement.

Zhang Lang smiled and said, "I'm talking about you two, why do you feel so much today?"

Huang Yueying smiled. Thinking of the Northern Expedition, she frowned and said, "I think the elder brother cannot be intimate intimate the elite! The elder brother's identity is extraordinary. If there is an accident, the consequences will be immeasurable!" She glanced at Dong Ying next to her, "In addition, there are all wives. If the elder brother has three or two shortcomings, what should you do?"

Dong Ying looked at Zhang Lang quietly.

Zhang Lang smiled and said, "Don't worry! I know it's okay!"

Huang Yueying sighed and said in a little annoyed: "I know I can't convince you!"
