The Three Kingdoms began with the rescue of Mrs. Mi

Du Yu and Sima Xuanhua made troubles for the sake of success.

Although this matter was Du Yu's family matter, it had a great influence on the Jin army.

The soldiers of the Jin state guarding Yecheng are very complicated, and the backgrounds and resumes of the generals in the army are also varied.

Some of them came from the palace guards who retreated from Luoyang, that is, the descendants of Cao Wei's generals; some of them came from the local county soldiers in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and the brave warriors in these counties were also the main force of the city guards.

The west gate of Yecheng.

General Ma Long of the Jin army guarded here with Yanzhou soldiers. When he heard the news that Sima Xuanhua and Cheng Ji had fallen out, he frowned first, and then sighed heavily.

When Wei Guo was still alive, Ma Long was still the military attache of Yanzhou. Linghuyu, the governor of Yanzhou at that time, was kind to him. The burial of wealth is a good story in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

After Sima Zhao ascended the throne, he heard Ma Long's name from Du Yu's mouth, and immediately pulled Ma Long to work for Wu Meng.It was precisely because of Du Yu's recommendation that Ma Long fought resolutely in Yecheng, allowing Zhong Huikong to plan, but was repeatedly hit by a wall.

"The discord between General Zhengnan and Princess Gaolu is a private matter of the Du family and the Sima family. As a subject, it's better to keep it light. It's just that this city of Ye may be difficult to defend."

In front of his subordinates, Malone sounded warnings from time to time. His original intention was to bring back the scattered soldiers, but the same words sounded very different to different people's ears.

The general who guarded the east gate of Yecheng was Xu Ba, the grandson of Xu Huang.

According to the seniority of Xu Huangzu's generation, if he was still in Cao Wei, his status would not only be that of a general, but that the world would make people play tricks. When Xu Ba came of age, Cao Wei would be replaced by Sima Jin. Be afraid of Cao Wei as a deadly loyalist.

This time, if Sima Zhao had no one in his hands and Du Yu strongly recommended, Xu Ba might still be just a county lieutenant in Hanoi County.

"After three days, open the gate of the city and let the great Han Heavenly Army enter the city." Xu Ba held a silk letter in his hand. There were only these few words in the letter, but it weighed a thousand catties.

Cao Jie was in Yecheng, and the most important person he had contact with was Xu Ba.

Xu Huang was a general of Yang Feng in his early years, and later followed Yang Feng to protect Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xiedong to defect to Cao Cao. With this experience of being a king, although Xu Huang was not a member of Liu Xie, he was also a general who was close to the Han Dynasty.

Although Cao Pi had doubts about Xu Huang during the several rounds of bloodbath against the loyalists, he did not take Xu Huang seriously in the end because of his outstanding military exploits and great prestige in the army.

After Xu Huang's death, his son Xu Gai was neglected by Cao Pi, so he could only take over the title of marquis and wait for death.

Cao Jie is the daughter of Cao Cao. Knowing that Cao Cao loved Xu Huang very much during his lifetime, she was in Shanyang County all these years and took good care of Xu Ba, who was a low-level county official next door. Coupled with the status of Emperor Liu Xie, Xu Ba became a follower of Liu Xie and Cao Jie.

Kaesong, return to Han.

Cao Jie's words revived Xu Ba's extinguished ambition.

"Forget it, my ancestor was a loyal general who supported the emperor back then, and my decree to return to the Han today is also a righteous act in response to the emperor's gratitude. The revival of the Xu family should be at this time."

Xu Ba was not reconciled to die for the Sima family if he didn't get the respect of the Sima family. Originally, he thought about surrendering to the Kingdom of Shu to damage his grandfather's reputation. up.

Yecheng's army was shaken.

Du Yu was also helpless about this. Generals like Ma Long and Xu Ba were not closely related to the Sima family. When Sima Yi and his son gained power, they did not receive much attention. people's hearts.

In the Han camp.

Liu Feng is discussing with Zhong Hui and Deng Ai about attacking Ye.

In the early stage of the battle, Zhong and Deng fought each other in order to fight for their first achievements, and they were almost used by Du Yu.

After a long battle without success, Zhong Hui thought carefully.

In the report to Liu Feng, Zhong Hui vaguely mentioned that Deng Ai seemed to have an action to reserve his strength. The most obvious example is that Deng Zhong, who is known as a brave general, was suddenly captured by the army when he was about to break into Yecheng. The enemy's attack was defeated and retreated. Is there any meaning of waiting and watching in fear of war?

Zhong Hui used the heart of a villain to treat a gentleman's belly, which made Liu Feng's expectations of him drop a lot.

In history, Zhong Hui and Deng Ai were deadly rivals, not only did not get along with each other, but also suffered a bloody fight for meritorious service. One of the two was killed on the way to Luoyang after being falsely accused, and the other was killed trying to stand on his own in Chengdu. , none of the endings were good.

Regarding the result of Zhong and Deng's discord, Liu Feng could only shake his head and sigh. Speaking of it, he was also to blame for his unpredictability, some wishful thinking, and he did not consider the inertia of changing the country and changing his nature.

Fortunately, Liu Feng was not an emperor like Sima Zhao who was hiding behind and plotting tricks. After realizing the conflict between the generals in front, Liu Feng rushed to Yecheng immediately.

With Liu Feng sitting in charge to suppress it, Zhong Hui wanted to slander and slander Deng Ai. It was almost impossible.

After setting up a banquet and calling Zhong and Deng over, after some persuasion, Liu Feng set the rules.

Zhong Hui attacked the west gate of Yecheng, and Deng Ai attacked the east gate of Yecheng. The two armies fought according to their respective responsibilities. When they encountered matters that needed coordination, they were reported to him for dispatch, which also resolved the internal conflicts.

After all this worrying and toil, Liu Feng was also tired.

Zhang Xingcai followed in the army, and seeing Liu Feng's tired expression, remembering what Xia Houjuan had told her, she found a chance to warm Liu Feng's bed in only her belly wrap.

"Your Majesty, is this concubine showing you something?" After Liu Feng lay down, Zhang Xingcai remembered Xia Houjuan's reminder and lifted her belly, revealing a little red mole.

"Ma'am, is this what your aunt taught you?" Liu Feng was taken aback, and Zhang Xingcai, who had a calm temper, took the initiative to throw himself into his arms, which made Liu Feng feel curious and relieved, and the troubles disappeared.

Zhang Xingcai nodded slightly, and couldn't help blushing. This kind of affair between a man and a woman is not for outsiders. If Xia Houjuan hadn't taught it personally, she would not know what Liu Feng likes.

The two had a heart-to-heart chat, and then fell asleep in a deep sleep.

When he got up the next day, Liu Feng received the news from Cao Jie that Xu Ba, the guard of the east gate of Yecheng, was willing to lead his troops back to Han. Since there were internal support in the city, it would be much easier to take down Yecheng.

"Give Deng Ai an order to make him respond."

"On Zhonghui's side, send a group of elite soldiers to go around the north gate and intercept the fleeing enemies in the city."

"The rest of the ministries, together with me, beat the drums to help."

Liu Feng issued successive orders and began to mobilize the entire army for the final victory over Yecheng.
