Chapter 371 New Law
Fifty miles outside Xinye City, Zhang He led his troops to march quickly to Bowangpo to support his vanguard lieutenant.

Bowang Slope is the fastest road to Xinye City, and Xinye City is regarded as the northwest gateway of Jingzhou.

Now that Bowangpo was on fire, Zhang He concluded that his [-] vanguard army was definitely ambushed!

Riding his horse and galloping towards Bowang Slope, although Zhang He thought he was still cautious, his vanguard lieutenant became a scapegoat.

The fire at Bowangpo burned for half an hour, Zhang He's lieutenant Zhang Ding had fallen off his horse, and Zhang Fei burst out laughing.

Guan Yu snorted coldly and said, "What joy does the third brother have? We ambushed Zhang Yun according to the order of the military adviser, but unexpectedly we only captured a lieutenant general. What's more, we killed and injured more than a thousand people under the ambush. How can it be considered a victory?" ?”

After Zhang Fei heard what the second brother said, he narrowed his eyes and sighed, Zhang Ba Snake Spear cut off Zhang Ding's head directly.

"Second brother, let's retreat! Zhang Xi is also a general, with many soldiers and generals, so go back and report the battle situation to the military division first."

Zhang Fei immediately led his troops out of Bowangpo, and the raging fire burned all the corpses of Jizhou soldiers.

Half an hour later, Zhang Yun rushed to Bowangpo, but saw that the flames here had already extinguished themselves.

Squinting his eyes, Zhang Yun concluded that Zhang Ding must be dead.

"Hmph! This battle is my fault. Soldiers, when you are looking for your brothers, even if they are burned to ashes, you have to take the ashes away and let them return to their roots. If you can't find your body, take your weapons and armor. , and set up a tomb for them." Zhang Yun sighed, shaking his head helplessly at the miserable scene around him.

The soldiers became angry. They had no intention of attacking Xinye, but set up camp after passing Bowang Slope.

Unexpectedly, the guard of Xinye would be so aggressive that he would set up an ambush at Bowangpo!
Zhang He led his troops to rectify the remains of the vanguard soldiers, retreated to Bowang Slope and camped five miles away.

One day later, Xiangyang City received the good news, Liu Bei was overjoyed, and prepared to reward Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Both Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang sighed helplessly, blaming Guan Yu and Zhang Fei for being too impulsive.

Xu Shu shook his head and said, "My lord, Zhang Yun did not attack Xinye, but instead damaged the vanguard. I'm afraid Han Wu won't let it go. Originally, Han Wu didn't talk south, but now he is famous as a teacher."

"Chen Bing Xinye is just to warn us that it will be like winter, and Han Wu absolutely does not plan to use troops. Kong Ming mentioned that the two generals set up an ambush on Bowang Slope, for the local Han Wu's army. Now only [-] pioneers have been wiped out in Bowangpo, and Xinye is in danger!" Xu Shu shook his head helplessly.

Zhuge Liang also responded: "Yes! My lord, we have just taken control of Jingzhou. Although we have the support of the imperial court, Jingzhou was devastated by Yuan Shu and the granary was empty. How can we have food and grass to continue fighting in the winter? Han Wu is different, he has plenty of food and grass for a protracted war. Fighting is not only about tactics and strategies, but also about strength and provisions! The two generals have angered Zhang Yun so impulsively."

Liu Bei shuddered when he heard that Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang had such a unified opinion.

Liu Bei frowned, and hurriedly asked: "You two military advisers, what do you think should be done?"

Gritting his teeth, Liu Bei doesn't want to lose the foundation of Jingzhou again!Neither Xuzhou nor Yangzhou can be fought for a long time, but Jingzhou is different.As long as Liu Bei is given enough time, he can jump up with Jingzhou.

But now is the most difficult time to carry out, Liu Bei doesn't even have the food and grass to fight for a whole winter!

Zhuge Liang lowered his head slightly, he was quick-witted, and said directly: "My lord, Sun Quan is too busy to take care of Lu Bu at the moment, and he can't help us. It is said that the lord's son-in-law Cao Pi's vassal Cao Zhen Caoxiu guards the White Emperor, we can ask them for help. At the same time, the lord can express Cao Cao, borrow food to resist Han Wu."

"Although Cao Cao is a traitor, he is an enemy of Han Wu. Let us borrow food to fight against Han Wu, and Cao Cao will definitely help us. General Guan also needs a letter to his daughter, so that General Guan's daughter can persuade Han Wu to cease fighting for a winter , Maybe we can get through this year's difficulties. Han Wugang took General Guan's daughter as his concubine, and he will definitely not rashly launch troops regardless of face."

After hearing Zhuge Liang's countermeasures, Liu Bei felt much relieved, and hurriedly started writing letters.

Half a month later, Cao Cao's grain and grass were sent to Jingzhou, and Guan Feng also received a letter from his father.

Sitting behind the table and eating, Han Wu saw Guan Feng kneeling in front of him and remained silent.

Both Da Qiao and Hua Mulan knew why Guan Feng was like this, and Han Wu also knew why.

The news of Zhang He's loss of soldiers and generals had already been reported back to Jizhou, and Han Wu was planning to order Zhang He to attack Xinye.

The guard of Xinye is Guan Yu, and now Guan Feng knelt in front of him and remained silent, the purpose was obvious.

Han Wu smiled slightly and said, "Guan Feng, how about eating together in your husband's arms?"

I don't intend to Guan Feng, she is a girl after all, government affairs shouldn't make her worry.

Guan Feng didn't move, just knelt on the spot without looking up.

Hua Mulan was suddenly dissatisfied that someone in the concubine's room was as disrespectful to her husband as Mrs. Cai Yan.

When Han Wu waved his hand, he guessed that Hua Mulan must be dissatisfied, but he didn't let her speak.

Still smiling, Han Wudao: "Ah Feng, if you want to beg your husband not to fight against your father-in-law, you shouldn't kneel there and stay still. Your husband is soft and not hard. If you don't want to be gentle in your husband's arms, how can your husband be gentle?" Promise you?"

Han Wu's words were very straightforward, and Da Qiao knelt aside and blushed when he heard it.

Guan Feng looked up and saw her husband smiling at her.

Originally thinking that her husband would never agree to her request, Guan Feng did not expect her husband to be such a gentle person.

Standing up nervously, he walked to her husband and knelt down, but Han Wu directly hugged her into his arms.

"Afeng, you are still young, and my husband takes pity on you, so I have sex with you. But this does not mean that my husband doesn't like you. If there is anything going on in the future, don't be so rigid, how can you do it if you don't say it? Come, have dinner with your husband Husband promised you not to use troops against father-in-law, but Chen Bing’s plan outside Xinye will not change, so General Zhang Yun will not be allowed to fight this winter, how about that?”

After hearing her husband's words, Guan Feng breathed a sigh of relief, as she had fulfilled her father's request.

Guan Yu personally wrote to his daughter, just to let her persuade Han Wu not to use troops this winter.

Now that the husband has agreed to himself directly, Guan Feng is moved and relieved.

If you have a husband like this, what can I ask for?
After dinner, Han Wu went to the main hall to meet Xun You and Cui Yan, who had been waiting for him all afternoon.

They refused to leave for a whole noon, and it wasn't because of an emergency, Han Wu felt that they were really tiring.

Neither Hua Mulan nor Da Qiao followed. When it comes to government affairs, women should try not to participate.

Cui Yan hurriedly sent the bamboo slips in his hand to the lord, and said: "My lord! Many people in Jizhou slaughtered yellow cattle on farmland for food. This is a big deal! Farm cattle are the treasures of the country, and according to the law, they should go out and slaughter them. But now With the atmosphere like this, there are more people who slaughter cattle, and the county magistrates in various places dare not punish themselves in vain."

Han Wu was dissatisfied when he heard that the people were killing cattle.

Don't kill farm cattle, don't kill loyal dogs!Farm cattle and guard dogs are both loyal to their masters, how can they be slaughtered?

Xun You also sighed and said, "My lord, the ox is a livestock that grows rice and beans, but now the corn and sweet potatoes don't need the help of the ox. The common people are... this kind of trend, we still need to stop it."

Han Wu narrowed his eyes, snorted coldly, and said, "Pass down the favor! Today, I'm going to issue a new law."

Regarding this matter, Han Wu has a firm attitude and must deal with it seriously.
