"This is not like Boyu's style."

Ma Yuan knew his son-in-law very well and had always been calm in his actions. He liked to do everything step by step, to wipe out the Li family in Wu'an and control Wei County. But now, he suddenly became furious and raised his troops because of a subordinate official who was killed. Why?

Seeing that he was so angry that his father-in-law was seeing it, he had a secret conversation with him.

"I originally wanted to recruit the fifth floor to be used for my use, but since the Qu coach Zhang Wen refused the good intention and decided to reject it by force, he could only fight!"

"And this battle will not be rushed. You must win quickly, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable."

The eastern boundary of his jurisdiction is based on a Yellow River as a natural danger. Once frozen in the middle of winter, tens of thousands of Red Eyebrows cross the river will be as if they were on flat ground. If the fifth floor was not destroyed at that time and joined forces with it, the fifth reunion will be attacked from both sides. From then on, hundreds of miles west of this city, all of them are plains and wilderness, and there is no danger to defend. Once one loses, it is very likely to be penetrated by Red Eyebrows, and more than a year of operations will be destroyed.

Therefore, the thief on the fifth floor is really a thorn in his eyes, and he cannot leave any hidden dangers. He can only fight a time difference and eliminate the thief on the fifth floor within these two months.

That's why the fifth reunion suddenly became furious and made a fight to promote the army that would definitely fight.

Ma Yuan knew it and nodded, "It just so happened that we can also train troops on the fifth floor of the thief to see how powerful the disciples of the two counties have. The two thousand defeated soldiers under Geng Boshan's command had to be brought over. They were beaten by the Red Eyebrow in Chengchang. Now, when they saw the Red Eyebrow, they shivered and retreated, and first beat other bandits to gain courage."

The fifth reunion said: "I will personally take charge of the army in this battle and must win all of them."

It is necessary to win all the things, so that Shouliang and even the Hebei tycoons can see that the Fifth Reun has the strength to destroy the thieves to protect them, and also let the rebels such as the Tongma who were rampant in the counties know that the Fifth Reunion is not easy to mess with, so he will circumvent his jurisdiction in the future.

"Return to the fifth floor? Why don't you name it first floor?"

Wu Lun cursed inwardly: "We must let the five schools and Wu Ban in Jizhou know that only one five can be tolerated north of the river!"

...

At the end of October of the third year of Dihuang, when Chimei and the Hebei Uprising Army were still fighting resolutely with the reactionary forces of the government, the green forest in the south completed the union with the powerful armed forces in Nanyang without any resistance, slaughtered Tangzi Township, and besieged the important town of Huyang County with the Han soldiers.

But in Liu Xiu's eyes, this meeting was not very pleasant. The powerful men and refugees who were like water and fire in the past are now working together, and it is like a nest of snakes and rats. Friction and conflicts occur every day.

"Why should we hand over the property we seized to Green Forest?"

So, a few children of the Chongling Liu family looked for Liu Xiu and Liu Xuan indignantly, wanting to ask for an explanation.

Liu Xuan and Liu Shenggong joined the Green Forest early, and were even more trusted there. He explained: "Lu Lin is a guest, how can he be neglected?"

The children of Chongling were dissatisfied: "When they were fighting with the government, how could they divide the host and the guest? We did not do less than the Green Forest, why did they share the money unevenly?"

Liu Xuan was speechless, but Liu Xiu came forward to dissuade everyone, promising not to use everyone's spoils, and took out all his own portion to Lulin. The Chongling children dispersed, but some people also made unfair payments for Liu Xiu.

Compared to Liu Xuan's humbleness towards the Green Forest General, Liu Xiu was still neither humble nor arrogant. The Green Forest leader was full of vicious bandits. Too weak would make them feel that the Han soldiers could be bullied.

But for the sake of the overall situation, no matter how difficult and frustrated the cooperation, it has to be held back.

Fortunately, after they continued to march northward and conquered Huyang County, Liu Xiu received strong support from the local powerful and foreign family Fan family. His uncle Fan Hong helped each other while Green Forest and Han soldiers besieged the county town, which allowed the Han soldiers to break the city smoothly.

The green forest plundered in Huyang City, but then found that the Fan Manor outside the city was even richer. He couldn't help but be greedy and wanted to rob, but was stopped by Qu Ma Wu.

Ma Wu, with a brown face, stared at him and scolded the short-sighted guys, who even thought he was a wandering bandit: "I am from Huyang County. I have been respecting the reputation of Fan's father and son in the county since I was a child. His family is etiquette and kind in the village. If our army dares to offend, it will annoy the people of Huyang."

The Fan family was very generous and even used food and fodder to reward the green forest and the Han soldiers. Liu Xiu looked at the Fan family manor in the distance, the high halls and pavilions, the canals and the ponds and fish and livestock. From the silk and silk of the grain, they all formed their own system. When they were closed, they became an independent small country. They couldn't help but sigh that none of this changed.

Liu Xiu lost his father when he was young and was raised by his uncle. However, the one who had the greatest influence on his personality was his grandfather Fan Chong. He remembered that his grandfather was a person with a long-term plan, and his family planning was often calculated over ten or twenty years.

For example, if you want to open a lacquer industry, you will plant catalachite and lacquer trees ten years in advance. People who are eager for quick success and instant benefits sneered at him. Until the lacquer grows up, Fan takes this as a wealthy family and has a huge fortune, but he does not make it unkind, but instead provides relief to the clan and brings favors to the countryside, which has gained prestige.

Now this accumulated power has been revealed when assisting Liu Xiu. Families who have been favored by Fan have asked their children to bring their own weapons to Liu Xiu, resulting in more than 2,000 people, which has doubled the Han army's partial army. Now, at least there is no need to worry about being popular and swallowed by the Green Forest Coaches with ulterior motives at any time.

"There is nothing more than a tree valley in a year, and nothing more than a tree in a decade."

Liu Xiu deeply remembered the words that his grandfather loved the most. He and his brother were also prepared for the rebellion. Only after the actual work was done, he realized that no matter how thorough the preparations were, the rebellion was still in a hurry, with too many accidents and unsure.

When Liu Xiu and Lu Lin marched to Xindu County in early November, they found that this place had been captured by their elder brother.

Let’s talk about Liu Yan’s capture of Xinye, his in-laws Deng Chen brought two thousand soldiers of the Deng clan to join the Han army, and the Yin clan’s legitimate son Yin Shi also responded with his children from the clan. The head of the Yin clan had no choice but to obey.

With Yin and Deng’s support, Liu Bosheng’s main Han soldiers had already had tens of thousands. Although they were powerful armed forces who were temporarily gathered together, they were still very powerful.

Wang Mang was very concerned about his old vassal state, and he left a thousand county soldiers to station. However, when the Han soldiers gathered tens of thousands of people to fight, the surrendered surrendered and fled - because the news of the Red Eyebrow Chengchang victory had already spread to the south, and no one was willing to fight, from officials to soldiers.

The mansion of Xindu Hou, which was decorated simply but elegantly but solemnly, was looted by Han soldiers. Liu Yan also allowed the soldiers to be convenient for Xiaodian in the hall where Wang Mang once lived.

"Wang Mang once destroyed the home of Zhongliang Zhai Yi, restored Han Dynasty, and poured it with sludge. Today, he also lets him taste the taste of his own home being treated like this."

Liu Yun was very interested. After the soldiers emptied the valuable silk and other items, they personally lit the fire and burned the Xindu Hou Mansion. He stood with his sword and watched the fire dragon run around in the house happily.

Like Chi Zhaoping, who was determined to dig up the ancestral tomb of Wang Mang Yuancheng's hometown, Liu Yan's hatred for the country that had been depressed for more than ten years also needed to vent his anger.

After discovering his younger brother came beside him, Liu Yan pointed to his masterpiece and said with a smile: "I remember that when Wang Mang was sent back to the country, he kept his own guard here. His son killed his slaves, so he forced his son to commit suicide, and gave him a jade sword nose to the wise man for invitations to catch reputation, and the world was deceived by him."

"It is also because it was named Xindu, so the fake dynasty usurped the title of Xin."

This is a wrong rumor, but Liu Yan thought so, raised his hand and shouted: "Since Wang Mang was the new capital back then, the destruction of the new room will begin from now on!"

But Liu Xiu looked aside and found that his elder brother, who had always claimed to be Emperor Gaozu of Han, had his face reddened by the fire.

"Why do you look like Xiang Yu?"

...

The Han soldiers and the Green Forest Army were stationed in the new capital, while Wang Mang's old mansion had been burned into ruins.

Liu Xiu looked at the devastated Qiuxu, and remembered that in the second year of the Earth Emperor, Di Wu Lun had come here to welcome several princes of the new dynasty and return to the capital. Although Liu Xiu failed to meet him, he also asked people to chase him and gave each other beautiful jade. Liu Xiu gave him a nine-sized jade, which the people didn't care at all and threw it directly in his hometown. The jade sword nose that Di Wu Lun gave him was placed on his sword.

In just over a year, so many drastic changes had occurred in the world that was relatively peaceful at the time. Liu Xiu suddenly thought, what would he think if the fifth reunion knew that he had rebelled?

His brother believed that the fifth reunion had completely become Wang Mang's hawk, not only suppressing the cause of restoring the Han Dynasty in Wei County, but also fighting with the Red Eyebrow in order to defend Wang Mang's hometown Yuancheng.

Wei Di Yuancheng, Xindu, Nanyang, one is the hometown and the other is the land of Longxing. They all have extraordinary political implications, just like the two kidney sacs of Xin Dynasty, carefully protected. Now that Xindu is being squeezed by the old man, the news is spreading to the court. Wang Mang is afraid that he will be so painful that he will not sleep. Will the court's attention be concentrated in Nanyang?

"It shouldn't be." Liu Xiu shook his head and said to himself: "We have just started a military force, how can we compare with Kanto Red Eyebrow?"

At this time, Liu Yan also came back drunk with Zhu You's support. He arranged for Liu Xiu to stay in the camp, and he went to the Green Forest Army with the recommendation of Ma Wu to discuss major events with Wang Feng, Pinglin Liao Zhan and others in Xinshi.

"Uncle Wen still remembers Dou Rong who told me to be careful?"

Liu Yan laughed and said, "He was ordered by Yan You to go north from Jianghan. He should have come to intercept the soldiers of the Lulin Xinshi City, but he did not cruising in until the Green Forest broke through Sui County and headed north. He heard that we were raising troops. After hearing the news, Dou Rong directly took more than 4,000 people and retreated all the way to Wancheng, and did not dare to fight with us!"

Liu Xiu felt something was wrong: "When I was in the Yan Gong army, the soldiers trained by Cen Peng and Dou Rong in Jiyang were the most orderly. What's more, Duke Dou Zhou was praised by even the fifth Bo Yu. He knew the soldiers and was good at planning, so he should not be careless!"

"Probably, the epidemic in the military has not yet subsided."

Liu Yan couldn't guess what Dou Rong had planned, but they did not intend to stagnate. The Li Tong brothers were still occupying the fort in Wancheng, fighting for beasts in the iron mine, hoping that they would rescue them. Thanks to the sacrifice of the Li family, they attracted all the troops in Wancheng, so that the Han soldiers could calmly capture several counties.

"Next, continue to go north along the Qingshui River. You will take the Deng army to attack Yuyang, while I will besiege Jiyang with the Green Forest."

Jiyang County is the southern gate of Wancheng. Once captured, the county city will be protected without any danger. What's even better is that the Jiyang Wei Cen Peng, who is good at military service, has been transferred to the south by Yan You.

This plan has been finalized with Green Lin Zhushu, and there is no way to change it.

Liu Xiu had no say, but he had some talent in military affairs, and always felt that Dou Rong retreated this time, as if he was deliberately luring the Han soldiers. The green forest continued to advance and lengthened the front line so that he could decide the outcome in Wancheng.

Seeing that the march was so smooth, but his younger brother was still frowning, Liu Yan told him something to be happy about.

"When I was in Xinye, I visited the Yin family with Weiqing (Deng Chen). What I agreed was that it was not just the Yin family who sent a disciple to join the Han soldiers."

"There is another big event in your life!"

Liu Xiu looked up in shock. Liu Yan knew his younger brother best. He had long seen his thoughts. He heard Deng Yu talk about the past in Xinye again. No wonder Liu Xiu was still in a hurry to get married when he was twenty-eight!

He has always been a straightforward and neat thing, not like his younger brother hesitating for a long time, so he patted the plan. It would be better to choose a day than to meet the day. He took the Deng family as a matchmaker on the spot to propose marriage to the Yin family!

If it were a few years ago, the Yin family would have hoped to marry a popular powerful gentry, and looked down on the Liu family, the former dynasty's heir who had no one to be a high-ranking official, but the situation was stronger than others. The Yin family also heard that the official army was defeated in Guandong, and seeing that the Liu brothers were about to succeed, they could only agree to marry under the semi-force of Liu Yanliang's knife.

"Na Cai, ask for your name, Naji, Na Zheng, I have done it for you for my brother... Yin Lihua, it turns out that the lady of Yin, whom my brother has coveted for a long time, is called this one."

Liu Bosheng looked at his younger brother who was so happy that he was stunned. Uncle Wen had always been calm and it was extremely difficult to have such a look. It seemed that he was doing the right thing, so he laughed and patted him and said, "As for the remaining two items, after we conquer Wancheng and build the Han country, you can do it yourself!"

Being an official should be a Jinwu, and marrying a wife should be Yin Lihua.

These two unattainable ideals are now imminent. If the great man can revive and his brother becomes the emperor, Liu Xiu felt that he would not be able to seek the Three Dukes, at least he could become a nine minister. As for the latter, he was even closer.

Liu Xiu was immersed in this surprise, and for a moment he didn't even bother with the future fierce battle, and said:

"I will go back to Chongling to get married after this battle!"
Chapter completed!
