Chapter 802 I want to end this troubled world with my own hands
There was sudden silence in the attic.**
"What do you three think?" Yan Liang asked coldly.
Mi Zhen also came to her senses and said hurriedly: "Liu Bei is ruthless and unrighteous. The two of you have long since severed all ties with him. Thanks to your majesty's mercy, I and my concubines are satisfied to enjoy a little kindness from you. How can we dare to think of him again?"
"That's it. What Sister Mi said is exactly what I think in my heart." Gan Mei also expressed her sincerity.
Yan Liang nodded slightly, expressing satisfaction, and turned his eyes to Guan Feng.
Guan Feng hesitated for a moment and then said hurriedly: "My father did not care about my life or death. My heart has long been filled with despair. All I want now is to serve Your Majesty. I have no other wish."
Whether it was out of fear of Yan Liang or out of sincerity, these three women all expressed their support for any decision made by Yan Liang.
Yan Liang laughed loudly and ordered the slogan to be removed.
"Only women who know the current affairs have meat to eat. I like women like you who are sensible. Don't worry. No matter what happens in the future, as long as you serve me well, I will ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing throughout your life."
Yan Liang said, hugging the three women into his arms and caressing them wantonly.
The three girls snuggled into Yan Liang's arms obediently. When Guan Feng and Mi Gan faced each other, the blush on their faces became even stronger.
The aroma blows in, and the soft and delicate body is even more attractive.
The fire in Yan Liang's heart started to burn brightly in the blink of an eye.
"One moment of a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold. It's rare for me to get together with you today. If you don't enjoy this good time, what are you waiting for?"
Yan Liang laughed, then lay down on the couch, and pulled open his half-covered clothes, revealing his solid chest with crisscrossed muscles.
All three women knew that Yan Liang wanted to enjoy their bodies.
Mi Zhen and Gan Mei looked at each other. Their faces were "thin" after all. At this time, they couldn't care less about Guan Feng's presence. They quickly stretched out their arms to undress themselves and crawled like snakes.
past.
Guan Feng, however, blushed and froze in place for a moment, embarrassed to go up.
"Come here quickly." Yan Liang waved to her.
Guan Feng knew that now that things had happened, in order not to offend Yan Liang, she had no choice but to press down on the so-called discomfort.
After hesitating for a moment, Guan Feng had no choice but to untie Luo's shirt, and together with her two "aunts", they crawled forward in an ugly manner.
In the pavilion, spring suddenly appeared.
The palace maids on the left and right were blushing without realizing it, but they could only suppress their shame and kept fanning the emperor and three concubines who were lingering on the bamboo couch to send cool breeze.
On Jinque Terrace, spring thunder bursts and Wushan Mountain rises and falls.
…
Throughout the summer, Yan Liang was looking cool on the Golden Bird Stage.
Before you know it, midsummer has passed and golden autumn has arrived. Except for the two war-torn states of Yongliang, all other states in the Chu Kingdom have enjoyed great harvests.
There was enough food and grass. The soldiers had been recuperating for a long time. Before Yan Liang could give the order, Pang Tong and other important ministers came forward and proposed to send troops to the northern expedition to destroy Liu Bei and unify the world.
Yan Liang's coolness was enough. So one day after the autumn harvest, he summoned Pang Tong, Xu You and other important ministers to discuss the Northern Expedition in the Jinluan Hall.
"The most important thing for the Han Kingdom is Ye City. If you want to defeat Ye City, you must break through Liu Bei's Yellow River defense line. The core of the Yellow River defense line that Liu Bei has built for many years lies in Liyang."
Prime Minister Pang Tong was the first to speak out.
Yan nodded slightly and signaled Pang Tong to continue speaking.
"I believe that in this Northern Expedition to destroy the Han Dynasty, the army will be divided into four groups." Pang Tong pointed to the map hanging on the giant wall. "In the far north, Liaodong all the way to contain its rear. To the west, Hedong County can attack Bingzhou and contain Liu Bei's left wing.
.And to the east, troops can be sent from Qingzhou to contain Liu Bei's right wing."
"These three armies and horses are all partial armies. Your Majesty can lead our main force from Chu to the north to cross the Yellow River to attack Liyang, and take Yecheng directly from the middle road. The four armies and horses will advance together and let's see how Liu Bei responds."
Pang Tong's confident words revealed his strategy of conquering the Han.
In fact, before this court meeting, Yan Liang had privately discussed the plan for the Northern Expedition with Pang Tong, Xu Shu and other important ministers many times. It can be said that the strategy Pang Tong mentioned to the court was exactly the consensus reached by Yan Liang and them after many discussions.
.
Today, Yan Liang just used Pang Tong's mouth to announce his plan for the Northern Expedition to the ministers.
Snap!
Yan Liang stood up and said resolutely: "What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true. I have made up my mind. I will use the Prime Minister's plan to send troops northward as soon as possible to wipe out the hypocrites and unify the world!"
The sound was like thunder, shocking the heart.
The fighting spirit of the officials in front of the palace was instantly ignited by Yan Liang's generosity and solemnity.
"Destroy the hypocrites and unify the world——"
"Destroy the hypocrites and unify the world——"
In the main hall, the officials were excited and shouted loudly, and the hunting spirit filled the main hall like a huge flame.
The decision was made, and on the same day, Yan Liang issued an order to mobilize all the armies and launch an overwhelming force for the Northern Expedition.
Regarding Hedong County, Yan Liang took Zhang Liao as the commander-in-chief of the route army and commanded 30,000 troops. He moved up from the northeast of Hedong and attacked Pingyang County, which belonged to the Han Kingdom.
From the direction of Qingzhou, Yan Liang appointed Gan Ning as the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Route Army and led an army of 20,000 people to attack Pingyuan County of Han State from the direction of Qingzhou.
On the Liaodong side, Yan Liang appointed Lu Meng as the commander-in-chief of the Northern Route Army, and mobilized all the Liaodong Army to attack Youzhou.
In the middle, Yan Liang decided to lead an army of 200,000 to cross the Yellow River from Yanzhou to the north and take Liyang, an important town on the north bank of the Yellow River.
In this campaign, Wen Chou, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, Wen Pin, Ling Tong and other elite Chu soldiers and generals all accompanied him.
This time Yan Liang has mobilized the strongest army in his history, determined to destroy Liu Bei at all costs and unify the world.
He wanted to end this troubled world with his own hands.
After the imperial edict was issued, the world was in a state of excitement. All Chinese and foreign armies quickly gathered on the front line. Hundreds of thousands of men from various states were also mobilized, ready to deliver food and grass supplies to the front line at any time.
News of the Chu army's Northern Expedition was soon sent to the north bank of the Yellow River, and hundreds of thousands of urgent documents were sent to Yecheng by flying horses day and night.
When the news reached Yecheng, the capital of Han Dynasty was greatly shaken.
On the day he received the information, Liu Bei summoned Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, Guan Yu and other important officials to discuss countermeasures.
In the main hall, the atmosphere was solemn.
Liu Bei looked around at the ministers and said with a livid face: "The traitor Yan has raised an army to invade our country. The country is in danger. You can tell us what strategy you have to defeat the enemy."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuge Liang came out and said: "The invasion of the Yan bandits is as I expected. I think our army's strategy remains unchanged, and we should focus on defending Liyang. As for the two counties of Pingyuan and Pingyang, we will use part of our troops."
The horses will stand firm, and after our army has driven back the main force of the Yan thieves, these two groups of troops will naturally retreat without a fight."
Zhuge Liang's calm words somewhat relieved the tense atmosphere, and Liu Bei's livid face gradually softened a lot.
At this time, Sima Yi said: "Prime Minister, please don't forget that in addition to the three groups in the south, the Yan bandits also have the Liaodong Army. Lu Meng has nearly 50,000 Liaodong cavalry under his command. If he wants to deal with such a heavy army, he must deploy them in Youzhou."
We have heavy troops, but if Youzhou divides too many troops, our southern troops will not be enough, and how can we deal with the attack of the Yan bandit's army of more than 200,000 men."
As soon as Sima Yi said this, Liu Bei's expression immediately became solemn again.
"This is easy, Liang has already thought of a countermeasure." Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly, with a look of confidence on his face.
Liu Bei was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Prime Minister, what good strategy can we use to defeat Yan's Liaodong Army?"
Liu Bei and Sima Yi both looked shocked and looked confused.
Zhuge Liang pointed his feather fan far away to the north and said with a faint smile: "Although Liaodong can threaten our country's rear, your Majesty must have forgotten that there is another force that can still threaten the rear of Liaodong."
Liu Bei frowned and couldn't think of anything for a moment.
Sima Yi's eyes lit up: "Could it be that what Prime Minister Zhuge said was Goguryeo?"
"Yes, it's Goguryeo." Zhuge Liang nodded slightly, with a slightly proud smile on his face.
Goguryeo is located in the northeastern part of Liaodong. It has been a country for hundreds of years. Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the decline of the Han Dynasty, it has been coveting Liaodong.
After Gongsun Kang ruled Liaodong, he sent troops to attack Goguryeo several times, and once forced Goguryeo to move its capital to avoid Gongsun Kang's attack.
After Gongsun Kang was destroyed by Chu, Goguryeo saw an opportunity and gradually began to turn its attention to Liaodong again. However, it was afraid of Lu Meng's military power that it did not dare to act rashly.
Zhuge Liang's plan for Liu Bei was to send an envoy to Goguryeo with great courtesy, promising to cede the four counties in Liaodong and other counties occupied by Chu to Goguryeo, and asking Goguryeo to send troops to attack Liaodong and attack Lü Meng's rear, forcing Lü Meng not to use all his strength.
Attack Youzhou.
Zhuge Liang explained his strategy eloquently, and Liu Bei was very excited when he heard it, and he wanted to adopt it on the spot.
But when he was about to speak, Liu Bei hesitated.
"The eastern and western counties of Liao have been the territory of the Han Dynasty since ancient times. Nowadays, they are only stolen by Yan thieves. If I secede these four counties to foreign countries like Goguryeo, I am afraid that others will discuss them."
What Liu Bei was worried about was still his reputation.
Zhuge Liang said: "Your Majesty is over-concerned. The cutting of the four counties and Goguryeo today is just a temporary measure for the overall situation. After the Yan thieves are wiped out in the future, Your Majesty will naturally send troops to take it back. At that time, who will talk about Your Majesty?"
"
Zhuge Liang laid the steps like this, and Liu Bei came down and immediately nodded in agreement.
Therefore, Liu Bei immediately made a decision to send Sun Qian as envoy to Goguryeo and ask the King of Goguryeo to send troops to attack Liaodong.
Seeing that Zhuge Liang's plan was adopted, Sima Yi volunteered to go to Bingzhou to supervise the army and respond to the attack of the Chu State's West Route Army.
At this time, Zhang Fei also generously requested a battle and was sent to Pingyuan County by Liu Bei to deal with the attack of the Chu Army's Eastern Route Army.
Seeing Zhuge Liang and other important ministers, Liu Bei adopted or dispatched all the suggestions and efforts they could offer. These important ministers all contributed to the country at this time of national crisis.
Seeing others showing their faces, some among the ministers could not sit still.
Among the ministers, one of them came out fiercely, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the army to guard Liyang, so that the Yan thieves will not dare to cross the Yellow River north!"
