Chapter 722 The hero of women's middle school
Pang Tong said anxiously: "Lord, the camp was attacked and the food was destroyed. This battle can no longer be fought! Retreat!" Liu Bei had no choice but to give the order to retreat. He ordered Guan Yu and Pang Tong to lead a group of troops to Jiameng Pass, while he himself led another group of troops to Guanzhong. The many counties and towns that had previously occupied gave up all of them.
After receiving the report that Hanzhong had nothing to do, Ailang led the army straight to Luoyang according to the original plan, preparing to leave Luoyang to attack Hongnong from the direction of Hangu Pass and then attack Guanzhong. However, when Ailang led his army to Hangu Pass, he received the news that Hanzhong was victorious and most of Liu Bei's troops had retreated into Guanzhong, so he canceled the plan to march into Guanzhong. After all, Ailang could not use many troops at this moment, and it was okay to take advantage of it. But now the main forces of the enemy were gathered in Guanzhong, and it would definitely be more costly to attack.
Jizhou, Prime Minister's Mansion. Cao Pi hoped that Liu Bei and the barbarian coalition could make progress. Although he did not want others to be better than him, he was very willing to see him as long as he could attack Lu Bu. However, God's will beat people and things went against his wishes. First, the barbarian coalition was almost killed by Zhao Yun and wiped out the entire army. Then the Hanzhong war report came. Liu Bei lost a great loss at the city of Hanzhong, and the army had retreated to Guanzhong and Jiameng Pass. The two routes also disappeared like the wind and clouds.
Cao Pi was depressed and couldn't help but curse: "The barbarians are useless! Liu Bei is also useless! I really don't understand why his father was still cooking wine to discuss heroes in the past and called Liu Bei a hero!"
Sima Yi smiled and said, "Actually, although Liu Bei returned in vain, it is rare that the army did not lose much!" Then he clasped his fists at Cao Pi and said, "Liu Bei's main force is still there, which is a good thing for us!"
Cao Pi was in a better mood and frowned and nodded. Thinking of the aristocratic families who rebelled within Lu Bu, he couldn't help but say expectantly: "I hope those aristocratic families can give us a surprise!"
At this moment, Xun You suddenly stepped in quickly, held his fists and said, "Prime Minister, Chaoge is coming to an emergency report!" As he said that, he presented a roll of bamboo slips. Cao Pi's eyes lit up and couldn't help but say, "Is it because of the good news among the aristocratic families?" As he said that, he quickly stepped forward, took the bamboo slips from Xun You, and opened them to see. Sima Yi looked at Cao Pi's face and saw that his face suddenly changed drastically. Sima Yi frowned slightly, without asking, he had guessed the situation.
Cao Pi threw the bamboo slips to the ground and cursed: "Damn it! Damn it! They all failed!" Sima Yi sighed and said: "Actually, this result is not unexpected. There was even a big battle before, but the Qin army seemed to have not been affected by the internal influence at all, which shows that!"
It turned out that those aristocratic families were secretly contacted to resist Ailang, but they were not a monolithic part. On the contrary, they wanted to be a large number of aristocratic families and had no idea about this matter, so many aristocratic families reported to Ailang early on. Ailang accepted the suggestions of Jia Xu and others, but did not immediately attack, but quietly arranged it to let Zhuge Mengxue take charge of this matter. Not long ago, those aristocratic families thought that the opportunity had come and launched a rebellion, but
Unexpectedly, they fell into the trap completely. The rebels led by the large families led by the Luo family in Runan were wiped out in an instant. These rebels were just mobs. When the Qin army came in large numbers, they collapsed and collapsed before they even fought. Then they were just one-sided searches. The Qin army almost completely put down the rebellion in the territory in less than three days. Therefore, this rebellion had almost no impact on the Qin army.
Ailang sat in the study of the Luoyang Palace and listened to Chen Gong's report on quelling internal rebellion. Chen Gong said: "This rebellion has implicated tens of thousands and nearly hundreds of families. What should be done in the end? Please decide on the Qin King."
Ailang felt a little headache and asked, "Old Chen, what do you think?" A ruthless look flashed in Chen Gong's eyes and said, "The rebels must pay the price for what they do, and everyone must know that rebellion will not end well! This crime is extremely evil, and my subordinates recommend that they behead them all!"
Ailang was startled and shouted, "Kill them all? Tens of thousands of people!" Chen Gong clasped his fists and said, "You must not tolerate the rebels!"
Ailang thought for a moment and frowned, "If it were a foreign race, let alone killing tens of thousands of people, I wouldn't even blink my eyes if I killed hundreds of thousands of people or millions of people! However, although these guys are hateful, they are all Han people! I can't do this! Let's do this, all the leaders of the aristocratic families involved in this matter beheaded, their property is confiscated, and other people let local officials in various places distinguish the situation and deal with it! If there is no life on his hands, he will be kept for a few months as a punishment!"
Chen Gong frowned, feeling that this would leave a lot of trouble, but he also knew that no matter how much he persuaded him, it would be useless, so he didn't say anything. Thinking of another thing, he clasped his fists and asked, "King Qin, in this battle, our army captured a large number of Wuwan people, Xiongnu and Xianbei people. What should we do?" Ailang laughed and said, "These are all good laborers. You can't waste it. You can coordinate with the local officials and transport these prisoners to various places to open mines and repair roads for me." Chen Gong held his fists and agreed.
At night, Ailang came to the street alone without Huang Wudie to wander. At this time, the streets of Luoyang were brightly lit, and many pedestrians were wandering on the street, as if they were out for a walk after dinner, and the whole street was in a peaceful atmosphere. Although Luoyang had just experienced a crisis not long ago, it seemed that it had little impact on the lives of the people in Luoyang.
At this moment, a carriage passed by, and suddenly there was a loud bang. The bearing of the carriage suddenly broke and a wooden wheel flew out. The pedestrians exclaimed and dodged, but the horses in the carriage seemed to be frightened and kept running forward. Seeing this, Ailang immediately started chasing. Although the horse was frightened, he dragged a carriage with a broken axle and couldn't run fast. Soon he was caught by Ailang. Ailang grabbed the reins of the horse, pulled the lunge and pulled it hard. The running horse neighed and stopped with a manpower. The pedestrians on the road couldn't help but be amazed and praised it.
At this time, the curtain of the car was lifted, and a familiar face appeared in front of Ailang. Ailang was stunned and couldn't help but say, "It's you?!" The man was also surprised, and then said happily with a slightly red face: "King Qin!..." It turned out that the owner of the carriage was not someone else, but Concubine Dong who lived alone in the Luoyang Palace.
Ailang thought of her identity, so he smiled and folded his fists and said, "I'm paying homage to the empress!" Concubine Dong looked a little embarrassed, and then got off the carriage with the help of the personal palace maid Yuanyang. Standing in front of Ailang, looking up at Ailang, with an indescribable charm in her beautiful eyes, and said slowly: "The King of Qin saved me again!" Ailangko did not put such a thing on her body at all, and waved her hands with a smile: "You don't have to be polite! You don't have to be polite!" Seeing that the damaged carriage was looking at the face of distress, he said, "That driving person..." Seeing that the King of Qin called him, the driver was flattered and quickly stepped forward and worshiped, "The villain is here."
Ailang said: "You just clean up the mess here. I will send your concubine back to the palace." "Yes, the villain obeys the order."
Ailang looked at Concubine Dong and said, "You two girls and you don't have any followers, so it's not safe." Concubine Dong's eyes flashed with a strange expression and nodded softly. Yuanyang hurriedly said, "Please be caring to the King of Qin!" Concubine Dong felt a little embarrassed and shouted in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense!" Yuanyang stuck out her tongue and smiled with a pursed lips.
Ailang looked around and saw that the palace was right in front of the street, and said, "Let's go." Then he led Concubine Dong to the palace in front. Three people walked on the street. Ailang walked in front, while Concubine Dong and Yuanyang followed closely behind. Ailang was playing a small song in his mouth, looking leisurely. Concubine Dong's eyes were always wrapped around Ailang's back, looking tender and tired, as if in her eyes
There was no other food in the middle. The mandarin duck next to him suddenly whispered to Concubine Dong: "My lady, look!" Concubine Dong finally withdrew her gaze and looked in the direction of Mandarin duck's fingers. She saw a pair of talented men and beautiful women walking intimately on the street. During the Han Dynasty, ethics did not emerge, so the atmosphere was still very open. It was not a big deal for men and women to whisper intimately in public.
When Concubine Dong saw the couple, a strange feeling suddenly arose in her heart. She felt that she and Lu Bu looked like those couples at this moment! Thinking of this, her heart couldn't help but pound, and shyness and joyful emotions rippled in her heart. The eyes of Ailang's back became even gentler.
