Three Kingdoms: Starting from zero, a wealthy party

Chapter 156 Analysis
Xun Yu asked Cao Ren to stay here to rest and go to Xudu alone, and asked the prime minister to send troops to Wancheng to start the construction of the city as soon as possible.

A day later, Xun Yu arrived in Xudu, and he hurried into the palace to meet Cao Cao.

Seeing Xun Yu returning safely, Cao Cao felt relieved. For Xun Yu these days, he didn't think about tea or food. Now that he has returned safely, it is undoubtedly the best news for him.

"Xun Yu's incompetence made the Lord worry."

"These are all fine. This time, I didn't think carefully and made the military division suffer."

"Where is the matter, no one thought that Liu Zhang would sneak attack Luoyang when he was going to Yizhou in a humble position. My lord, don't blame yourself."

"Liu Zhang really has the courage to come to my territory to make trouble. If the northern battlefield is not on the verge of breaking out, I really want to destroy him."

"My lord is absolutely impossible."

Cao Cao was a little puzzled, "Xun Yu, why do you say that?"

Xun Yu told Cao Cao what he had experienced in Liu Zhang's house. After hearing this, Cao Cao snorted and said, "I'll know if you don't tell me. Liu Zhang is cowardly and suspicious, so he can't accomplish anything."

"My lord, I thought so too at first, but on the way back, I didn't think so anymore."

"how do I say this?"

"My lord, it doesn't matter to us whether Liu Zhang did what happened in Luoyang now, because Liu Zhang gave us a big gift, and I think this big gift can completely make up for the mistakes he made before."

"What gift?"

"Liu Zhang gave us a city, Wancheng in Jingzhou."

Cao Cao stood up suddenly, "Xun Yu, do you know what you said just now? This is not a joke, is it true?"

"Everything my subordinates said is true. General Cao Ren is now stationed in the city, waiting for the prime minister's supplies. But now, the Jingzhou army must have discovered that Wancheng is lost. If it is a step later, Wancheng may fall into the city again. In the hands of Sun Ce."

"Okay, pass on the order to gather all the soldiers and horses in the city. I will personally lead the army to Wancheng to help Cao Ren."

"My lord, Shengming."

Zhang Liao and Ji Ling also returned to Xiliang City at this moment, and Han Yang personally cleaned them up.

After the two settled down the soldiers, they came to Han Yang's mansion, where Han Yang had already put on a banquet and waited.

When Ji Ling saw it, his eyes straightened, and he laughed and said, "I haven't even had a sip of wine after being out for such a long time, and the food in my mouth is tasteless."

"That's because I'm afraid you'll make a mistake by drinking. It's not that you come back and drink whatever you want."

"That's right. Zhang Liao, sit down too. You should be happy if you win the battle."

Zhang Liao was a little unhappy, and said, "How can this be considered a victory? We just went for a sneak attack and lost nearly half of our brothers. If we fight head-on, will we all die?"

After hearing what Zhang Liao said, Ji Ling felt that the wine he drank was tasteless, so he put down his glass and sat there without speaking.

Han Yang looked at them and put down the wine glass in his hand, "Then tell me, whose responsibility is this?"

"I... I don't know." Ji Ling said like a rascal.But Zhang Liao said affirmatively, "It's our fault, because so many brothers died because the two of us were not careful enough."

"War will kill people, I know this, but we must do our best to reduce the number of casualties to the minimum, which is the minimum for you as generals."

"Moreover, there are no cowards in the Xiliang army. When they chose to go to the battlefield, they had already thought of these consequences. They will also be responsible for their actions, and they will be responsible for Xiliang."

"Look at the way you are now, sighing here as their generals. Is this face the dead soldiers would like to see?"

Han Yang picked up the wine glass and slammed it on the table. The wine splashed around and spilled on the three people, making Zhang Liao and Ji Ling sober.

"Don't keep saying that you can't bear these things. This era doesn't allow you to look like this? Your life now not only belongs to you alone, but also belongs to every sergeant in the Xiliang Army. It belongs to Xiliang. Do you understand?"

Zhang Liao seemed to be enlightened, and all the confusion in his heart dissipated. Seeing his gradually bright eyes, Han Yang nodded.

Ji Ling's side is a bit troublesome, Han Yang seems to be able to see several question marks surrounding his head, with black lines running across his head, it's really embarrassing for him to reason with him, let's end it as soon as possible.

"Okay, don't think about it anymore, this is your celebration banquet after all, you should be happy, drink and eat."

After drinking for three rounds, the conversation between the three of them gradually opened up. Han Yang asked, "Do you know what you all did this time?"

Ji Ling asked: "Didn't they attack Luoyang and Wancheng?"

Zhang Liao was also very puzzled. Han Yang waved his finger, "Not only that, but now the whole world is played by you. I really didn't expect that I made such a simple move, and the world would be in chaos."

"What did your Majesty say?"

"Before you attacked Luoyang, I was still a little worried, because no matter how you plant the blame, with Cao Cao's shrewdness, he will find out that I did it."

"However, today, today, he did me a big favor. This was reported by the shadow. After your surprise attack, Liu Xie rode to the gate where you left, but he was blocked by Cao Xiu's army, so he had to go back obediently."

"My lord, why did he want to leave the city gate in the middle of the night?"

Zhang Liao rubbed his forehead, "You're so stupid, I can't even figure it out. I give you food, drink, and a place to sleep every day, but don't let you leave, and send heavy soldiers to guard you. Are you willing?"

"That's definitely not willing."

"Zhang Liao was right. Liu Xie wanted to escape from Cao Cao's command, and mistook our army for Liu Zhang's army. Coupled with the chaos in the city at that time, he thought this was a good opportunity to escape."

"The result is that he didn't escape successfully, and he also helped us by the way. It is even more confirmed that Liu Zhang was the one who made the sneak attack."

"Liu Zhang is even more stupid. Xun Yu went to Yizhou to make peace, and he also agreed to Xun Yu's matter. It was good, but who would have thought that he heard about the Luoyang incident, and tied Xun Yu directly without saying a word. Now He can't speak clearly with his mouth all over his body."

"Hahaha" Ji Ling and Zhang Liao laughed loudly after hearing this. They never expected so many incredible things to happen to them in the past few days outside.

Han Yang raised his glass, and the three drank it down. He continued, "But Liu Zhang is not the worst one. The worst one is Sun Ce. In order to show his sincerity, Liu Zhang led [-] soldiers to attack Yiling by water. But he returned in vain. Yiling was defended by Ling Cao with [-] defenders, Tai Shici also rushed to support, Liu Zhang's trip was a complete defeat."
