Three Kingdoms: Cao Cao and Liu Bei help me to ascend the throne

Twelfth lunar month... reunion season.

The fact that his wife traveled a long distance to Luoyang did not make Ma Yuanyi happy at all, but instead reminded him of the past.

In the middle of the night, after his wife fell asleep, Ma Yuanyi went to the copybook in front of the window by himself.

Ma Yuanyi picked up a brush and wrote a line on the bamboo slips.

——In the past day, if the mother does not see the child, the child cannot be filial, this is the child's sin!baby...baby...

He seemed to be writing a letter home to his mother.

But he also knew that with his mother's resolute character, even if he asked his wife to bring him the family letter, the result would probably be... backfired, and it would make his mother even more angry.

Every time he thought of his mother being alone in Zhuojun, Ma Yuanyi felt extremely depressed.

All laughter is insulated from him...

for a moment...

He was thinking, if... If this big man only has one Taoist, then... How good would it be?
His mother will not sever the "mother-child relationship" with him because he is in Taiping Road, and he can also go back to Zhuojun to spend a reunion with his mother!

Ugh…

Ugh…

Long sigh.

Never thought, right now.

"God's envoy..."

There was a "rustling" sound outside the door...

Ma Yuanyi walked to the door vigilantly, he secretly glanced at his sleeping wife, and then whispered back.

"who is it?"

Taking off the bamboo hat, a familiar face appeared in front of Ma Yuanyi through the crack of the door.

"open…"

Before Ma Yuanyi could speak.

The man in the bamboo hat outside the door groaned softly: "The envoy of the gods, the great virtuous teacher asked me to tell you that the situation has changed, and the plan is advanced!"

This…

Ma Yuanyi was stunned, and quickly asked: "No, isn't it the end of next year to revolt? Isn't there still a year to prepare? How could you be so flustered..."

The voice came out, and the man in the bamboo hat outside the door said softly.

"Next year's uprising was decided by the Yuan family in Runan. If you follow the plan of the Yuan family in Runan everywhere, then who is this uprising for? My brother means that there will be an uprising early next year, and before the uprising, we must get rid of the uprising." That...'A confidant's serious trouble'! This is what brother means! It is also the answer that the great virtuous teacher asked Huang Tian and got!"

Well…

Ma Yuanyi hurriedly asked.

"The confidant? Who is the confidant?"

The man in the bamboo hat outside the door did not speak, but stuffed a note in... Immediately, the man in the bamboo hat walked away slowly.

Ma Yuanyi unfolded the note...

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it... When you look at it, your eyes turn cold.

The person whom the great virtuous teacher asked him to get rid of was——Yulin Guanliuyu.

even...

Not only to get rid of, but also to uproot the entire Heavenly Master Dao!
This…

Subconsciously, what Ma Yuanyi thought of was his mother who was far away in Zhuojun. If it wasn't for the way of the celestial master, if it wasn't for Liu Yu from Yulin Temple... mother... can mother have someone to rely on when she grows old?

If it weren't for the Heavenly Master's way, she might not be able to survive the plague and the catastrophe of the Hulu invaders, right?

But now...

As the God's envoy of Taiping Dao, he wants to...but...

"Squeak..."

Biting his lips heavily with his teeth, Ma Yuanyi showed an expression of incomparable pain at this moment.

...

...

Yuzhou, Runan.

The magnificent Yuan family mansion...

"Brother, can the three Zhangjiao brothers be trusted?"

Because it was La Ri, Yuan Kai also brought his three nephews, Yuan Ji, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu, back to his hometown...to meet his elder brother.

Yuan Ji, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu also visited their father...

The ritual of the day is over.

In the middle of the night, Yuan Kai entered Yuan Feng's bedroom alone. In the candlelight of Xingwei, the two whispered and discussed something.

"Not necessarily reliable!"

Yuan Feng pondered for a long time before he uttered this sentence...

"Then..." Yuan Kai knew that this matter was very important... "If the three Zhang Jiao brothers are unreliable, then..."

Before Yuan Kai could finish his speech, Yuan Feng explained: "The original plan was to use the uprising of the three Zhang Jiao brothers to persuade the emperor... to lift the party's shackles, and let the localities gain the right to recruit and control soldiers."

"In this way, with the background of my Yuan family and the contribution made by my Yuan family to lift the party, no one in the world will look up to me, and the soldiers of the clans in the world will be brave for the soldiers of my Yuan family! Day and night, we The Yuan family can pull out a strong army! As for countering the rebellion, hehe... What is Zhang Jiao's group of peasants capable of, but if it takes a few years, won't it just make our army bigger? There is a saying Come on, raise the bandits and respect yourself!"

Speaking of here…

Yuan Feng continued: "At that time, you and I will have Dong Zhuo's Xiliang soldiers outside to help out, and He Jin will fight against the eunuchs inside and be our puppet. It only takes an appropriate time. In this great Han world, my Yuan family It can be replaced!"

Although the curtain has not yet opened.

But Yuan Feng seemed to have seen very far, counted very far.

For several months, he has been perfecting and deploying this plan!

Yuan Kai shook his head.

"Brother's idea is good, but Zhang Jiao's three brothers are not so reliable, is Xiliang's Dong Zhuo reliable? And... He Jin, will he follow our plan? All of this is unknown!"

"No..." Yuan Feng interrupted: "The clans in this world, including you, haven't seen the situation clearly. Today's big man has accumulated a lot!"

Speaking of here…

Yuan Feng paused, and slowly got up.

"The one who replaced the Han Dynasty should be Tu Gaoye. My Yuan family is a descendant of Emperor Shun, and Tude is bound to replace Huo De. Everything is fate. What we need to do is to prevent any mistakes in fate! The only one Where things can go wrong is..."

At the end, Yuan Feng gritted his teeth.

Yuan Kai seemed to have predicted what Yuan Feng wanted to say...

The two spoke almost in unison.

——"Yulin Liulang!"

That's right...

In Runan Yuan's view, the biggest threat to them now is Yulin Liulang.

What's more, recently...according to the secret investigation of the Yuan family in Runan...

Under the plan of Yulin Liulang, a clan of Nanyang assembled a 20,000-people army and rushed to Youzhou, and all... all dug out gold!

If Liu Yu is allowed to continue to develop like this, who knows how powerful he will become.

It is not an exaggeration to say that today's "Liu Yu" has become the biggest threat to the Runan Yuan family on their way to "compete for the championship"!
"What are you going to do, brother?"

"Tang Zhou of Taiping Dao is mine!" Yuan Feng said in a low tone.

"This…"

"Tang Zhou's status is special. If he uses it well, it will not only help you and me, persuade the emperor to lift the party, but also help you and me get rid of the serious trouble!"

Yuan Feng's eyes were tightly closed.

"Brother, this is to..."

"Haha...If you can sacrifice Tang Zhou in exchange for Liu Yu's life, then...it's a good deal!"

...

...

Inside Yulin Temple.

After numerous attempts and improvements.

Liu Yu made up his mind to make a Liannu. For this...Cao Cao strongly supported him. His idea was very simple...and very simple.

Now that the burden of Youzhou's fight against Wuhuan has been handed over to Gongsun Zan... and he will defeat Wuhuan with the power of "cavalry"!
Then...

There are only so many horses, how can there be any extra horses for Cao Cao?

Cao Cao is going to be the "General Who Conquers the West", and he will definitely fight Xianbei to the death in the future, so... how can he fight Xianbei without a horse.

Repeater...

This Yulin Liannu is the answer!

certainly…

The title of Yulin Liannu was also given by Cao Cao. Liu Yu proposed to call it "Zhuge Liannu", but Cao Cao questioned, what Zhuge is not Zhuge, this thing is not made by "Zhuge", why "Zhuge" He also deserves the name!

But Liu Bei...

Ever since he heard that Liu Yu was going to be a Liannu, he couldn't be happy.

It is said that a clever woman can hardly cook without rice...

Liu Bei did the calculations carefully.

"Big brother, third brother...don't be so busy talking about being a Liannu, I'll settle the score for you..."

At this moment, Liu Bei unfolded a roll of bamboo slips, which were densely packed with his records, the cost required for large-scale production of Liannu...

Liu Bei cites one class at a time...

In the final analysis, this kind of machine-expanded weapon is made with great attention to workmanship, and if the arrows in the crossbow are to be more powerful, they also need to use good iron.

Where is this money...

"I did a rough calculation. Not to mention anything else, the cost of making [-] crossbows alone is probably more than tens of millions of dollars. The Zhen family was rich, but when Youzhou was closed, all Lai Zhen's family's support, now...let them take it out, I'm afraid it's too much to do! This point...I wrote to Brother Zhen to ask, he can only give a part of it at most."

Speaking of this, Liu Bei paused for a moment, and continued to explain all the difficulties and pain points.

"The so-called skillful woman can't cook without rice. The requirement of this crossbow is so high and the cost is so high. I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve one piece for every border guard! So...I propose..."

Liu Bei wanted to propose... make a thousand pieces, and the pressure will not be too great.

You know, since Liu Bei married Cao Cao and Liu Yuyi to Jinlan, he was responsible for the expenses of the Yulin Temple... This can be regarded as a perfect inheritance of Xun Yu's previous work.

The so-called...not being in charge of the family does not know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are!

"The second brother is the second brother, the calculation is so precise..." Liu Yu looked at the densely packed numbers on the bamboo slips, feeling very emotional...

Liu Bei is careful...

only.

"Where is a thousand pieces enough?" Cao Cao waved his hand, "When the Qin Dynasty destroyed the six kingdoms, the reason why Qin's army made people fearful was that it was stronger than Qin's crossbows. Tens of thousands of crossbows were fired at once... Even tens of thousands of people could be killed in an instant. It can be shot into a sieve! But now, Xianbei is known as the man who controls strings. 200,000, a thousand... is not enough to tickle others! At least [-]!"

Cao Cao has no idea about money.

After all, his father used to be a corrupt official, and now he is in charge of the treasury of the Han Dynasty, and he has such a rich and wealthy younger brother, he has never been short of money...

"Brother, this is embarrassing the Zhen family... Alas..." Liu Bei sighed again. "It would be great if there was no plague in Youzhou at that time. The money earned by the second brother's hoarding of horses would have been enough for these expenses. The key is...according to the second brother's thinking, it is not only the crossbow, but also the chariot... and the chariot... There are some special weapons, all of which need to be forged, and they are all money... If you want me to say, it would be great if the second brother dug up iron in Nanyang instead of coal..."

Converting coal into iron... After all, it still needs a process.

In addition, the promotion of anthracite cannot be achieved overnight. This is the twilight day... The severe cold has just begun. It is not known how long it will take to convert coal into iron, and then convert it into gold to open a workshop and hire craftsmen for forging.

"Iron..." Liu Yu whispered softly...

As he pondered, Cao Cao was taken aback, "Could it be that the third brother still hides the burial place of the iron vein in his mind?"

"It's useless." Liu Bei reminded. "The mining of iron and iron is all in the 'Iron Workshop' under the imperial court, but it is different from coal...Unless the third brother can dig out gold, it is convenient to buy anything with gold!"

Speaking of gold...

Liu Yu naturally thought of this group of patriarchs in Nanyang. These guys... disregarded the danger and did not listen to dissuasion. When they heard that Liaodong was able to dig out gold, each of them was like a "gold digger" and led thousands of people. He went to Youzhou in a hurry.

It's been more than a month, how can there be no sound?

He won't be killed by the Wuhuan people, right?

Thinking about it too... Digging for gold on the territory of Liaodong, I don't take other barbarians seriously, I can't bear it!

Can…

This raises a whole new question.

If it is said that the money earned by the Zhen family hoarding horses is almost exhausted, then... the supplies, training, and food in Youzhou... will all have problems.

Baima Yicong still doesn't know when he will be able to train.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu shook her head helplessly.

at this time.

Jian Yong hurriedly broke into this place... He held a letter in his hand: "Urgent... from Youzhou."

Well…

Liu Yu hurriedly took the bamboo slip... and quickly unfolded it, her eyes fixed on the words on the bamboo slip.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, when you look at it, your eyebrows are raised...

"Haha..." He immediately laughed out loud.

Liu Bei hurriedly asked, "Why is third brother laughing?"

"Second brother, what did you just say? Unless the gold was dug up? Haha... With the good words of the second brother, gold was really dug out in Liaodong. Because of this gold, the clans in Nanyang asked Gongsun Zan to occupy Lulongsai. Over the past few months, a city guard has been built here, and the city walls and sentry towers have been repaired. From now on... there is another defense in the north of Youzhou!"

"And the amount of gold is so large that I'm afraid it will surprise the two brothers. Our tens of thousands of crossbows seem to be in place."

Speaking of this... Liu Yu stood up calmly.

Cao Cao was also very excited, "That is to say, in the future... for my brother, this 'General Zhengxi' still has something to do..."

"Of course there is drama, and it's very funny!" Liu Yu replied with a smile...

Liu Bei seemed to feel that all this was just a dream...

gold?

Liaodong just... just dug out gold?
This time it's easy, no need to hoard horses, donkeys, or hoard... What you dig out is gold, and there is no middleman to make the difference!

"Third brother...you...you are a god!"

Liu Bei muttered...

Liu Yu patted Liu Bei's shoulder with a smile, "Second Brother, Eldest Brother is going to be General Zhengxi, and I have to worry about the armaments for General Zhengxi. Three months, [-] crossbows, Second Brother... This task is entrusted to you."

Speaking of this, Liu Yu blinked at Liu Bei...

"Three months, [-] continual crossbows, second brother... you can take care of things, brother Yu can rest assured!"

Show a harmless smile.

Liu Bei is still counting...

Selling straw sandals and straw mats for many years has allowed him to develop a good habit of being good at calculation.

For three months, let’s count it as one hundred days, ten thousand crossbows... a day is one hundred... this... seems...

Liu Bei wants to say it's a bit difficult...

But after thinking about it, the money problem is now solved.

It's such a small matter, he...as the second brother?How can you talk about difficulties?

"Brother...Don't worry, third brother!"

"This repeater is on me!"

Here, the three brothers are talking and laughing...

Over there...

The Imperial Palace, inside the Hall of Long Live the Thousand Years.

Emperor Liu Hong, who received the urgent letter from Youzhou, had a pair of pupils almost bursting out... the whole person seemed to be in endless shock.

Yuer, Yuer...

——You were allowed to guard Youzhou, but you were not allowed to attack Wuhuan's Liaodong territory!

Luronse... got it?

Also... have you built a city guard under the noses of the Wuhuan people?

This…

This Wuhuan man?Can you bear it?
