Optimization System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 183
Seeing that something was wrong, Xia Houyuan led the soldiers around him to kill Ximen all the way.

Along the way, many soldiers joined in, and when they reached the west gate, there were already 3000 soldiers around.

At this time, the west gate had been occupied by the enemy soldiers. In desperation, Xia Houyuan turned around again and killed towards the south gate.

When they reached the south gate, Xia Houyuan rushed out when he saw the city gate was wide open.

At this time, he already knew that Nanyang was not safe, so he galloped his horse and wanted to escape to Anzhong.

After traveling for several miles, seeing being chased behind and being thrown off by him, he felt relieved and slowed down the horse's hooves, but at this moment, suddenly there were flames all around, and a group of people rushed out.

It was Ji Ling who came.

Ji Ling has long followed Pang Tong's plan and ambushed here. Xia Houyuan happened to be defeated and fled here. Now Xia Houyuan had no fighting spirit and could only flee in a hurry.

Ji Ling chased after him for a while, but was finally escaped by Xia Houyuan, but there were only hundreds of people around him.

Unable to catch up, Ji Ling returned to the city. At this time, the battle in the city was over. Gao Shun left another 1 horses and Ji Ling behind, and ordered him to guard Nanyang.

Xia Houyuan fled all the way to Jiaxia.

Gao Shun also arrived within a few days.

There were not many guards in Jiaxia, and Xia Houyuan was too timid to fight with them, so he led his men and horses to abandon the city and fled again, heading directly to Fancheng.

Gao Shun attacked along the way, and there were no generals guarding him along the way, so he took it down easily.

The killing didn't stop until Deng Cheng, after all, the speed of food and grass was very slow.

After Xia Houyuan fled back to Fancheng, he immediately set off to return to Xiangyang alone to meet Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was furious when he heard this, and in a fit of rage he wanted to kill Xia Houyuan, only to be spared after everyone tried to persuade him. When he calmed down, he was filled with panic.

According to Xia Houyuan's description, since Zhang Lan can find 'monsters' to help out, he will certainly be able to find more 'monsters'.

Moreover, this 'monster' can fly and breathe fire, so it is hard to guard against.

Cao Cao also worked under Zhang Lan for a while. This leader was very impressive in his heart. He indeed had many magical means. will not rebel.

But now it's a done deal, and now that he's reached this point, he won't back down no matter what.

"Xiahouyuan"

"the end will be"

"I will give you another 5 horses to go to Fancheng to stop Gao Shun's army."

"The Last General Takes Order"

Xia Houyuan again led the army to Fancheng.

Gao Shun also waited for food and grass support, and began to march towards Fancheng.

The army was walking on the road in Fancheng, but the spring rain hit unexpectedly. In desperation, Gao Shun had no choice but to stop the march and set up camp temporarily.

Gao Shun, who was conquering in Jingzhou, was also triumphant all the way, but Zhang Lan, who was far away in Luoyang, got a piece of bad news.

That is Liu Bei beheaded and killed Tadun, and obtained Liaoxi and its surrounding counties.

Although this news is nothing for the time being, it means that Liu Bei finally has his hands free and has the opportunity to start a war with him.

Now that he has fought Cao Cao, he has to send someone to watch that Sun Quan is not annexed. If Liu Bei is added, then he can really be regarded as an enemy of the world.

Although Liu Bei's power is the smallest, he also mastered the techniques of stirrups and crossbows connected with Cheng. Through these two points, Zhang Lan's army did not have much advantage.

The only leading technology nowadays is the air force of hot air balloons, and the replica developed by Ma Jun based on the ultimate Thunderbolt car.

But both are siege weapons, and they are useless for battles in mountains and seas, and only hot air balloons have a certain effect on the plains.

"Feng Xiao, what should the form be like now?" Zhang Lan held a cigarette in her hand and sat with Guo Jia in the gazebo in the palace garden.

A gust of breeze blew through the treetops, and the kelp in the air carried the fragrance of flowers.

Guo Jia felt helpless looking at Zhang Lan who was swallowing the clouds. He really didn't understand why so many important officials in the court liked such a choking thing.

"Now that Liu Bei's rear is stable, he will lead his troops in a short time. At that time, our great republic will be attacked on three sides. Although the court is like a cloud of fierce generals, it will be difficult to fight with four hands. Cao Cao and Sun Ce will fight against each other. At this moment, Sun Ce is so focused on his peace that he has no time to pay attention to Cao Cao. Cao Cao will definitely turn his back on our army. The only plan for now is to quickly capture Fancheng, face Cao Cao across the river, and send heavy troops to guard it. When the time comes, watch the Sun brothers kill each other. Just stop Sun Ce with the power of Sun Quan."

"Um"

"Report to Your Majesty, Prime Minister Li seeks an audience"

"Oh?" Zhang Lan was taken aback, "Wen You is here, let him in."

"Yes"

After a while, Li Ru was led in by the attendants.

"Li Ru sees Your Majesty"

Zhang Lan shook her head with a smile and said, "Wenyou, you don't need to be so polite when there are no outsiders."

Li Ru also smiled slightly, "The etiquette of a monarch and his ministers cannot be discarded, and what should be there is still there."

Zhang Lan could only shake her head helplessly.

Li Ru saluted Guo Jia again, Guo Jia returned the salute, and then asked Zhang Lan, "I don't know how your majesty is thinking about accepting a concubine? It's been a while."

"Puff..." The tea that had just entered Zhang Lan's mouth was sprayed out by him in one gulp.

He looked at Li Ru innocently and helplessly, and said slowly, "Wen You, after all, I am also your brother-in-law, so why are you summoning me to be a concubine?"

Guo Jia's complexion also tightened, and he said seriously, "Your Majesty, this is the most important thing at this time, and it should not be underestimated. I also ask Your Majesty to accept the concubine as soon as possible and complete the harem."

This matter made Zhang Lan very depressed. It is true that there are very few men who don’t like beauty. As a normal man, Zhang Lan naturally fantasized about the three thousand beauties in the harem, but he couldn’t get past the hurdle in his heart. I feel that if I marry again, I will feel sorry for Dong Yu.

When Zhang Lan angrily told Dong Yu and Diao Chan about this matter, these two beauties agreed and urged Zhang Lan to accept the concubine.

It is said that Zhang Lan's status is different now. Now that he is the emperor, he naturally needs countless harems. Otherwise, Dong Yu's reputation will become bad. Those who don't know think she is a shrew, so don't let Zhang Lanna Concubine?

Zhang Lan was speechless and didn't understand, but since his eldest wife had spoken, how could he continue to be Liu Xiahui, so he could only agree.

"Okay, then listen to you, recruit, recruit, recruit"

The three consecutive strokes showed the depression in Zhang Lan's heart. He thought back then that he was chasing the goddess, and the goddess ignored him. Now he is also the role of an emperor, and the officials urged him to choose the concubine.

Really don't bully the young and poor, everything in the world is impermanent.

Who can know where a person's opportunities are and how much potential is there?
