Liu Chan in the Chaisang Secret Mansion said angrily that he had killed Yang Ji, and Wu Yan blocked the pass with his body! But when Long Yan was furious, the thunder was shocked, everyone present was afraid, only Wu Yan said calmly: "Your Majesty uses Wu Yan as the governor of a county, and everything in the county is handled by me. Your Majesty is the king of a country. Such a small matter is actually a dereliction of duty for me. I am willing to bear the sins on my shoulders and correct the law of the country."

"My presence is not in hindrance!" Liu Chan said unhappily with a snorted in his nostril.

Wu Yan was still as calm as water and said slowly: "General Yang Ji's disobeying the saint order is indistinguishable. However, people's convictions are extreme. Your Majesty treats people in Wu equally and is very grateful to the ministers. If this leads to Yang Ji's death, I will feel uneasy. The gap between the ministers in the two places has deepened. I hope Your Majesty will think twice before taking action!"

As soon as this statement was made, all the ministers in the room praised them in their hearts, but no one dared to say anything when Liu Chan was furious. Wen Li, He Pan and others had been scolded by Liu Chan and suffered enough. At this time, they could only support Wu Yan spiritually.

"According to your words, did I do something wrong?" Liu Chan wanted to be clear about every word, but his anger still remained unabated.

"Your Majesty will do it as soon as you order it, and strictly enforce the laws and regulations. This is the right way for the king and there is no fault." Wu Yan said in a deep voice.

Liu Chan's expression was slightly slowed down when he heard this. Wu Yan turned and said, "My destiny to make advice and beg Your Majesty to make a fuss. This is the duty of the minister and there is no mistake."

"Hmm? Hahaha, since the monarch and ministers are right, what should we do?" Liu Chan smiled comfortably when he heard this, and the suppressed atmosphere in the room disappeared.

Wu Yan said: "I am the governor of Chaisang County and should share your worries for Your Majesty. However, General Yang Ji is also at a high position. Please give me the minister a wise and axe to deal with this matter."

"Okay, I still need to go back to Jianye, so I will leave it to you here. I am in a hurry to travel, and this is my accompanying sword, which is given to you temporarily, and has the power to seize life and death." Liu Chan waved his hand, took off his waistband and took over the sword, and gave it to me.

"Thank you, my Majesty, I will leave!" Wu Yan held the sword in both hands to show respect and slowly retreated outside the house.

When Wu Yan retreated, the ministers also stood up. Liu Chan nodded and said, "Whether the opinions of all the officials, what about my scholars?"

Wu Yan didn't know how the ministers evaluated him, but it was clear whether he could handle the Yang Ji well, which was related to the face of the emperor and whether the people in Wu and Shu could be harmonious. It was a matter of life and death, and it was of great importance. It should not be ignored at all. When he came to the side hall, Yang Ji was still kneeling on the ground, and the rogue stood with a big knife waiting.

When everyone present was relieved when they saw that the visitor was Wu Yan and the Imperial Army Captain. No matter what, no matter what, Yang Ji's life was finally unhindered for the time being.

"Your Majesty gives me a clinging and axe to deal with this matter, and take General Yang Ji down and go to the hall tonight." Wu Yan also needs to prepare for a while and ordered everyone.

Yang Ji frowned, knowing that it must be Wu Yan who had excused himself for his sins. He couldn't help but feel mixed feelings in his heart and asked, "My scholar, where is Your Majesty?"

"The war ahead has not yet come to an end. Your Majesty has rushed back to Jianye. General Yang, you... take care of yourself." Wu Yanren has already walked away, and his words are clearly falling into Yang Ji's ears, which has a different meaning.

Liu Chan did not dare to stay, and led three or five civil officials and more than a hundred cavalry to return to Jianye overnight. The battle ahead had not stopped, and he was delayed for half a day in Chaisang, and his heart was always not at the pass. The centipede insect died but did not stiffen. Even though the internal and external troubles of Wei State were still strong, the chaos occurred frequently in the country, and the troops stationed in the two Huai Rivers were no more than 30,000. It was entirely due to the strong navy guarding the Yangtze River, which made it impossible for him to cross the river and gain a foothold in Jiangbei.

The breakthrough points of the war in the past few years were chosen in Luoyang and Nanyang. However, the land of Luoyang has Bingzhou in the north, the mountains in the south, and Hulao in front. If you advance, you need to guard against the Wei army in Hebei. The Wei army in Hebei also involved the Wei family naval army on the Yellow River. The wide range of involvement must be invested in a large amount of troops and manpower to fight. For the Wei army, as long as the Bingzhou people are ready to cross the river and attack the Shu people at any time, the Yellow River naval army will always threaten the flanks of the Shu army. The Wei army in Hulao is in seclusion and blocking the Shu people's footsteps, so that the Shu Han army can remain steadily in Luoyang without any advance strategy.

The complexity of Nanyang is not inferior to Luoyang. When facing enemies, they have to face the siege of the Wei army from Wancheng, Xuchang, Jiangxia and three sides. Moreover, the front line is wide and long, and even if they invest more than 100,000 troops, it is difficult to achieve results. Whether it is Shu Han's advance from Guanxi or Wu's advance from Jingzhou in the past, although they have gained a little, they have made a lot of sacrifices. In addition, if there is a slight exposure in Nanyang, they will be recaptured. After several changes of hands, the casualties have increased, which is not worth the loss.

When Zhuge Longzhong told Guanzhong that Wanluo was attacking at the same time, which was able to win the Central Plains. This strategic consideration was actually based on more than three parts of the world. Cao Wei was huge, but Sun Wu was restrained in the southeast. Therefore, Wanluo in Guanzhong had great combat power and could divide the world. However, now Sun Wu was dead early, and although Shu Han maintained confrontation with Wei on various fronts, attacking and defending each other. However, both countries fought for years and were exhausted in the country. At this time, even if the strengths and weaknesses were different, the victory and defeat could be even more turbid.

If the inferior ones can last for a long time, the superior ones will also be filled with hatred.

At present, the Wei State is at a disadvantage, but the internal troubles of Shu Han may not be less than that of Wei State. It is just that Liu Chan strongly suppressed it, and the ministers in the country do their best to obtain resources from all directions, and the temporary maintenance of domestic development is still continuing.

Therefore, Liu Chan concentrated his superior forces and used the withered Jiangnan as a rear base, and used the Wu and Shu people to promote the development of Jiangnan in their hearts of hating the enemy. At the same time, he attacked Huainan with heavy troops. As long as he gained control of the Yangtze River waters, the Shu army occupied Huainan and backed the Yangtze River, which could receive endless support from the Jiangnan region. Under such circumstances, he would take a defensive momentum to relieve domestic pressure, recuperate, and wait for an opportunity to send troops to attack the Wei State.

As Jianye was about to come, the Shu Han navy had to fight for a day, and finally waited for the turn of the war. Huize, Tao Huang and other generals who were cycling from Jiangxia captured Lujiang, Hefei, as well as beacon towers, docks, ferries and other key areas spread all over the north bank of the Yangtze River. The backyard of the Wei army caught fire and the morale of the army was in chaos. The Shu Han navy took the opportunity to attack fiercely. General Teng Xiu collided with the Wei navy marshal Sima Ji. The Wei army was completely defeated, countless surrendered and countless dead!

"Congratulations to Your Majesty for occupying the Yangtze River from now on!" Zong stayed at Jianye and came to greet Liu Chan. Meeting was a victory.

"Thank you for your hard work, how about Li Te's troops?" After entering the city, Liu Chan had no time to rest, so he first learned about the situation during the day.

"It's okay to rescue everyone by Suze, but..." Zong Yu said here, looking embarrassed.

"Hmm? But Jingzhou is tight?" Liu Chan's heart moved when he saw this, and he already knew something.

Zong Yu nodded and said, "Your Majesty clearly understands that the Jingzhou defenders are insufficient, and the Wei army is invading fiercely. If there is no support, I am afraid..."

Liu Chan nodded and said, "It is because most of the military forces in Jingzhou are transferred. What is the current war in Jiangxia?"

Most of the Jiangxia troops came from Jingzhou, and the Jiangxia waters were closest to Jingzhou. Zong Yu naturally understood Liu Chan's thoughts, so he replied: "Wang Jun, the general of Wei, is actually a general. With less than half of the defenders, he was extremely stable. Luo Ling could only trap him and could not take him."

"Although our army is victorious, the losses are heavy, and it still needs a while to rest before it can move. Lujiang has not yet established a foothold, and the new support of Jiangnan Mountains and Yue must not be taken lightly. I want to get several people to defend it. Can Mr. Zong recommend it?" Liu Chan knew that the entire Jiangnan and even the Huai area were new but obtained. If he could not defend it, it would not be surprising that he changed hands in an instant.

Zong Yu thought about it and said: "The Wei soldiers in Wujun are ready to move. If they want to defend the south of the Yangtze River, they must first trap them. Teng Xiu can lead the navy to cut off the support of Guangling, Zhongli Muti Kuaiji's troops attack the south of Wujun, Zhuge Siyuan leads an army to garrison the east of Jianye, and the three parties will trap Wujun under coercion."

"Well, what Mr. Zong said was very much. Besieging Wu County does not take any effort, and it can also allow the rear to cultivate and rest. This is the best strategy." Liu Chan nodded and praised.

"Although Shanyue is temporarily relieved, he is a rebellious person by nature and lives in the mountains, so he can only slow down his sights. Deng Liang has followed the army for many years and can be guarded." Zong Yao thought about it and recommended Deng Liang to guard the south of the Yangtze River and govern the Shanyue matter.

Liu Chan remembered that when he first arrived in this era, no one dared to speak out in the court, but the arrogant Deng Liang was alone in his argument and nodded in his heart.

"The old minister asked to stay in Jianye, but it still needed a Wu person to assist him to manage it. Can anyone choose Your Majesty?" Zong Yu continued.
