Mi Fang hurriedly said, "It's all because Lu Bu used a terrible weapon, a very huge catapult cart, launching a huge rock like a millstone, bombarding it, and the sky and the earth were shaking and moving indestructible! After a few days, the city wall was actually blasted out! So, so..." Liu Bei understood and looked at Zhuge Liang in a little shocked and suspicious manner. Zhuge Liang frowned and thought, "I've heard a detailed report on this weapon, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful!" Liu Bei turned around and said to Mi Fang, who was still kneeling on the ground, "This battle is not your fault, get up!" Mi Fang immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and hurriedly thanked him and stood up.

Liu Bei walked up to Zhuge Liang with his hands behind his back and said worriedly: "Kong Ming, the barbarian army was defeated, and we have returned in vain. This joint attack is probably a failure!" Zhuge Liang nodded, then clasped his fists and said: "Lord, don't worry too much! Although this battle failed to achieve the expected results, it also cost the Qin army a considerable price! The Qin army suffered losses secondly. In order to mobilize the army to deal with the coalition's attack, they must have been from the people.

A large amount of food and grass were collected! The Qin army must be very empty now. I judged that they would not be able to launch a decent offensive within two years! We can take this opportunity to arrange and plan carefully! There is no invincible fortress in the world, and I believe that we can find a chance to defeat Lu Bu!" After hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei's originally uneasy heart couldn't help but calm down, nodded, and thought for a moment, saying, "I want to send someone to have a good talk with Cao Pi!"

His eyes turned to Hangu Pass. After Ailang captured Hangu Pass, he saw that Liu Bei had only stationed his troops and had no intention of counterattacking, so he left a guardian of Hangu Pass, and he himself brought his large troops back to Luoyang. Shortly after returning to Luoyang, Qingzhou reported that the Cao army had stopped the attack and retreated to their previous position. At this point, a massive joint attack ended.

Ailang lay on the grass beside the lake in the backyard, looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the sky, feeling relaxed physically and mentally. The tension over the past few days has finally passed!

The sound of rapid footsteps came. Ailang didn't have to go and see that it was not someone else but his wife Huang Wudie.

After a while, the footsteps came to Ailang and stopped, and then Ailang felt someone sitting down next to him. Then Huang Wudie's voice came: "Brother, you are so leisurely!" Ailang laughed and said angrily: "I've been tired for so long, can't I let a rest?" Huang Wudie couldn't help but smile.

At this time, there were bursts of noise outside the wall of the palace. Ailang felt strange and asked, "Why is the city so noisy today?" Huang Wudie stroked her hair on her temples and said, "The people learned that all fronts had won great victories, so they spontaneously went to the hotel to celebrate!" Ailang laughed and said a little stinky: "It seems that I am still quite popular?" Huang Wudie burst out laughing and gave Ailang a blank look.

Ailang suddenly hugged Huang Wudie and rested her head on her thigh. Huang Wudie hurriedly looked around, and saw that there was no one around, she felt relieved. She looked at Ailang and saw that he closed his eyes and seemed to have fallen asleep. She couldn't help but feel her heart moved, and a tenderness arose. She stretched out her slender hand and gently stroked Ailang's cheek.

Suddenly, a sound of rapid footsteps came from a distance. Huang Wudie was shocked and hurriedly pushed Ailang and shouted, "Brother, someone is coming!" Ailang opened his eyes and sat up. Looking in the direction where the footsteps came, a female guard was running quickly from the arch. Ailang and Huang Wudie stood up from the ground.

The female guard ran to Ailang, fisted and bowed, "King of Qin, Concubine Dong is here, please see King Qin!" Ailang was surprised and asked, "She didn't stay in Xuchang, why did she come to Luoyang for doing?" The female guard said, "I heard that Concubine Dong raised a lot of money and food from the families of the ministers. She came to Luoyang to work hard with the money and food!" Ailang smiled and said, "She is quite intent!" Huang Wudie couldn't help but say, "She is indeed very intent!"

Ailang said to Huang Wudie, "Wudie, come with me to meet Concubine Dong?" Huang Wudie shook her head and said, "I have some serious business to do, I just come back and take a look!" Then he clasped his fists and said, "Then, brother, little sister, you're leaving!" Ailang nodded. Huang Wudie walked away quickly.

Ailang came to the hall and saw a tall girl standing there wearing armor, with her back facing away from her. Ailang couldn't help but be stunned and shouted in disbelief: "Empress?" The girl immediately turned around and saw her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a flower. Who would it be if she weren't Concubine Dong? Ailang only felt very incredible.

Concubine Dong clasped her fists at Ailang and said, "Can I disturb the King of Qin?" Ailang came to his senses, smiled, waved his hand and said, "No, no!" Then he asked, "My lady, please sit down!" Concubine Dong sat down at the left head. Ailang sat down at the right head opposite. At this time, the two female soldiers brought fragrant tea and retreated.

Ailang looked at Concubine Dong, clasped his fists and said, "I have heard that the Empress called on the ministers to donate a large amount of money and food, and I am so grateful!" Concubine Dong smiled slightly and said, "Why should the King of Qin take some thin power to heart?" Ailang said seriously, "How can I not take it to heart! I will never forget what the Empress did!" Concubine Dong suddenly turned beautiful and looked a little at a loss.

Ailang did not notice Concubine Dong's expression, and felt that she should say something more, but she could not find a topic for a moment. At this time, Concubine Dong had calmed down and raised Zhen's head to look at Ailang, saying, "King Qin, I have a ruthless request in my palace!" Ailang nodded without thinking, "You say!" Concubine Dong lowered Zhen's head and whispered, "I, I want to live in Luoyang, I don't know, I don't know..." Ailang couldn't help laughing when he heard such a small thing, and said, "What's the problem! The palace in Luoyang is empty anyway, so you can move in!" Concubine Dong was very happy and quickly stood up and bowed, "Thank you, King Qin!" Seeing her bowing posture, Ailang couldn't help but feel moved and graceful.

He came back to his senses and immediately sang to the outside, "Come!" A female guard officer came in immediately and said, "What are the instructions of the King of Qin?" Ailang pointed at Concubine Dong and said, "From now on, the Luoyang Palace will be resided for Concubine Dong! You bring people to escort Concubine Dong and others to go there, and explain it clearly!" "Yes!" Ailang said again, "You and your small group of female soldiers should stay in the palace as Concubine Dong's guard." The female guard officer agreed again.

Concubine Dong said to Ailang: "Then, I will say goodbye!" Ailang stood up, smiled and clasped his fists and said, "You can leave with me! I still have something to do, so I won't send you off!" Concubine Dong said, "The King of Qin doesn't have to be polite to me! Goodbye!" Ailang nodded, so Concubine Dong left with the female guard officer.

Ailang looked at the departure of Concubine Dong, touched her chin and muttered, "What's the matter? Are you separated?" Yan thought of this, Ailang smiled teasingly. Ailang was not surprised at all about this situation. Women always hoped to be protected by men, but her man not only could not protect him, but also caused her child to die in tragic death. I am afraid that any woman would hate that cowardly and incompetent man.

At this moment, someone came in from the door. Ailang came to his senses and looked closely and saw that it was Chen Gong coming.

Chen Gong walked into the hall and saw Ailang. He immediately folded his fists and bowed, "King of Qin!" Ailang nodded. Chen Gong looked behind him and said with some uncertainty: "Justice in armor just now, but why did she look like Concubine Dong?" Ailang smiled and said, "Concubine Dong raised a large amount of money and food from the subordinates of the ministers. This time he came here to transport the money and food to work hard! I didn't expect that she would dress like this! It seems that Concubine Dong has some heroic dreams in her heart!"

Chen Gong suddenly realized and then smiled, "I heard that women deliberately dress themselves up not because of themselves, but because of other reasons! As the saying goes, women are honored for those who please themselves!" Ai Lang looked like he didn't understand, and joked with a smile: "I said to Lao Chen, your own problem is a mess, why do you say it like a veteran in the flowers at this moment?" Chen Gong smiled embarrassedly and said, "I am called bystanders and those who are confused by the authorities!"

Ailang smiled and said, "Okay. Don't say this nonsense anymore. You must have something to do when you come here, right?"

Chen Gong immediately presented a volume of bamboo slips and said, "This is the casualties and losses reported from all over the country. Please take a look at the Qin King." Ailang took the bamboo slips, opened them and read them, nodded and said, "It's not bad, it's almost the same as my estimated losses." Chen Gong said, "Our army faces sieges from all sides, and it's rare to turn the tide at such a price!" Ailang rolled up the bamboo slips, walked to the back of the book case, sat down, and put down the bamboo slips.

He quickly wrote an order, and after checking it, he stamped it with a seal. Ailang picked up the wooden slip, stood up, returned to the middle of the hall, and shouted to the outside, "Come!" A female guard officer guarding the door immediately came in, folded his fists and said, "What are the instructions of the King of Qin?" Ailang handed the wooden slip to her and said, "Send it to me immediately!" The female guard officer bowed and took the wooden slip and walked quickly.

Ailang looked outside the door and frowned, "Although we have the difficulties in money and food, we cannot be careless about this kind of pension!" Chen Gong nodded, clasped his fists and said, "The loss of our army's troops in this battle is nothing, but it has exhausted all the money and food that we have finally raised from the people! Judging from the current situation, our army is afraid that it will not be able to launch any large-scale attacks within two years!" Ailang sighed and said, "That's nothing to do! It's good that we all have a good rest!"
