Chapter 101 King of Hanzhong

At night, the moon hangs high in the air, reflecting the reflections in the water. On the side of the river, a group of famous and powerful generals of the world gathered around the bonfire to eat grilled fish and chat about homework.

Xue Bing sat by the fire, fiddled with the wooden stick in his hand to the burning fire, but his eyes glanced at him from time to time. Zhao Yun and Zhang Chunhua were sitting together, chatting very happily.

Sun Shangxiang next to him feeds the child grilled fish, and looked at Zhao Yun with Xue Bing's gaze and smiled, "They look very compatible!" Xue Bing also smiled, "I also said that this Zilong, I don't have a place for women in his heart! It seems that he has never found something that can make him moved.

”

Sun Shangxiang handed the grilled fish in his hand to the children and asked them to tear them to eat slowly. Then he smiled and said to Xue Bing: "Where are you? Have you found something that will make you moved?"

Xue Bing glanced at Sun Shangxiang and smiled and said, "My heart? It's been stolen by someone!" After that, he turned around and saw that everyone didn't notice him, so he said, "I was sneaked away by you, the fairy!" After hearing this, Sun Shangxiang paused him with a sweet face, then took a grilled fish, tore off a piece and fed it to Xue Bing's mouth.

"Mom! I want you to feed you too!" The sudden sound scared Sun Shangxiang, but the piece of fish was almost stuffed into Xue Bing's nostrils before it was sent to Xue Bing's mouth.

Fortunately, Xue Bing hid quickly, otherwise his nose would have been abstained from meat today.

The family was laughing and making a fuss. Zhang Fei walked back with a jar of wine, holding a few big bowls in his hand. He sat down next to Xue Bing and said, "Fortunately, I put some wine in the car when I came out, otherwise there would be meat but no wine, wouldn't it be enough?" After that, he put down the jar of wine, reached out to get the grilled fish inserted in front of Xue Bing.

Xue Bing was joking with Sun Shangxiang at this time, and when he heard this, he turned around. But he saw Zhang Fei holding the fish and was about to bite him, he shouted in a hurry: "Stop!"

Zhang Fei was stunned and asked with the grilled fish, "What's wrong with Zihan?"

Xue Bing smiled and said, "This fish is mine, no one can eat it! Yide should change one!"

Zhang Fei looked at the fish in his hand and said with a puzzled look: "This fish seems to be nothing special, why does Zihan care so much?"

Xue Bing said in his heart: "The fish kissed my wife and ate my wife's tofu again. How can someone else take it?" But he couldn't say this clearly, so he had to say: "I jumped into the river and caught it.

It is very cunning and beyond the reach of an ordinary fish, so it is specially kept in front of you.”

Hearing this, Zhang Fei looked at the grilled fish in his hand again, and suddenly saw Xue Bing's face was anxious, and he smiled in his heart, then said, "I don't think this fish has such a special feature. I must taste how extraordinary this fish is." After saying that, he turned around the fish.

I took a look, then opened my mouth and bit the fish.

Xue Bing was very anxious. He always felt strange when he saw the fish being bitten. He quickly said, "Stay here! I'll exchange my thing for you!"

After hearing this, Zhang Fei stopped and asked, "What do you want to exchange for?"

Xue Bing looked around and thought in her heart. "What did you use to exchange that fish for?" Suddenly, her eyes swept to the fire beside her.

Then I remembered the pheasant buried under the fire, and smiled and said, "Wait for me!" Then I hurried over and moved the fire away, and then dug out the chicken under me.

When Xue Bing walked back with such a ball of mud, Zhang Fei stared at his eyes and said loudly: "You want to use this pile of mud to exchange for fish with me?" His voice was too loud, and it attracted everyone's attention.

The Ma Chao family, Liu Bei family, and Zhuge Liang family were all around the fire.

Zhao Yun turned around. Seeing the mud on Xue Bing's hand, he always felt familiar. After thinking about it, he began to think of it and said, "Zihan, isn't that ball..."

Xue Bing smiled and said, "It's you, me and those pheasants that Meng Qi made!"

When Ma Chao heard this, he said with a strange look: "The chickens didn't even pull out their feathers at that time, and they applied so much mud. Can they really be eaten?" Then he leaned up and looked at Xue Bing's hand.

Xue Bing smiled and said, "Of course I can eat it, but those hairs are not pulled.

It is precisely because I have to apply mud!" As he said, he peeled off the dried mud, and the feathers were stained. After half of the mud, the fragrance of the chicken had already spread.

Zhang Feili was closest to him and sighed when he smelled the fragrance: "It smells so fragrant! Where did Zihan learn this trick? I didn't expect that there was such a way to cook in the world.

"Then he stuffed the fish back into Xue Bing's hand, grabbed the chicken, and impatiently peeled the dry mud clean, then tear off a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

"It smells so good! This chicken is made of! Tsk!" While muttering, he took out a bowl and poured himself a full of wine. He ate it and started drinking. "Happy!"

Xue Bing took the fish back, then took a bowl and poured some wine for himself, and started eating it. However, he did not dare to delay it, because he was afraid that someone would snatch the "sexy fish" again.

"Dad! I want to eat that too!" Xue Qing smelled the scent of the chicken and saw that Zhang Fei was very happy to eat, so she ran to Xue Bing to ask for it.

Xue Bing was fighting with the fish, and while biting, she muttered, "Let you eat my wife's tofu!" At this time, she heard Qing'er calling herself, and hurriedly replied, "Dad, I'll dig out one for you!"

After hearing this, Sun Shangxiang smiled and said, "You eat your field fish! I'll help the child get one! Where are they there?"

Xue Bing said: "There are all under the fires over there. Just move the fire away and you can dig them." As soon as he said this, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and Ma Dai all got up and ran to dig the chickens.

After a while, all the chickens buried under the fire were dug out, and almost every family had one or two. So everyone ate the chickens, drank wine, and chatted loudly.

Even Zhuge Liang, who usually doesn't like to talk about nothing, started talking a lot at this time. The crowd drank until late at night, and then returned to his own carriage and horses to rest, preparing to return to Chengdu early tomorrow morning.

The next day, everyone looked at Chengdu and returned. Liu Bei called Zhao Yun to his side while on the road and said, "Did Zilong take a fancy to Miss Zhang?"

Zhao Yun looked embarrassed when he heard this and didn't know how to answer.

Liu Bei smiled and said, "What's so sorry about this? Zilong has been with me for many years, but he has never married. If he likes Miss Zhang, I will tell you that it is a marriage for this family."

Zhao Yun hurriedly said, "But it depends on the arrangements of the lord."

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Zilong has been with me for many years, like a brother. Now my brothers have all become families, but Zilong never marrys me. If I marry the Zhang family, I will be relieved of my worries." After that, he chatted with Zhao Yun for a while.

Xue Bing saw it from behind and thought to himself: "It must be that the lord saw that Zilong and Zhang Chunhua were of such a meaning, so he couldn't wait to come out to be a matchmaker. However, if Zilong could achieve a marriage, it would be a good thing."...

After a few days of returning to Chengdu, suddenly someone sent by Cao Cao came to Chengdu.

However, he sent all Zhang Hezhi's family to Chengdu and attached a letter, which roughly stated that although Zhang He left Cao Cao, Cao Cao did not blame him. He also thought that he had been with Cao Cao for many years and had made many military achievements. Now he is alone in Xichuan, afraid that he is lonely, so he sent his family here to reunite with his family.

At that time, Zhang He cried loudly in his arms and said, "I have no face to treat Duke Wei again." A few days later, he suddenly became seriously ill and couldn't get up. Liu Bei visited him many times, said kindly, and asked the doctor to treat him, which made him slightly better.

At the same time, another news came from the north. Cao Cao proclaimed himself King of Wei, and the world was shocked. When Liu Bei heard the news, he hurriedly recruited everyone to the General Office for discussion.

Liu Bei said: "Now Cao Cao proclaimed himself the King of Wei, and recruited many soldiers and horses, built many armies, and mobilized them frequently, directly aiming at Hanzhong. What do you think?"

Pang Tongxian said: "Cao Cao dispatched his troops and horses because the lord took Hanzhong and his power was approaching Chang'an. Cao Cao was afraid that the lord would take the initiative, so he wanted to take the troops first and seize Hanzhong."

Zhuge Liang said, "I thought Cao Cao would not move troops in a short period of time!"

Liu Bei asked, "How can I see it?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Cao Cao had a big battle with Eastern Wu in Yangzhou at the beginning. Although he was not sure of the victory or defeat, his troops, food and grass were mostly exhausted. Moreover, the Eastern Wu army and horses had not retreated far away, so Cao Cao's army was stationed in Yangzhou and could not move easily.

If Cao Cao advances to Hanzhong, he will definitely dispatch a large army. Since this army cannot be transferred from Yangzhou, he can only temporarily recruit troops and form a group with Yongliang people.

It took quite a while for temporary recruitment of troops. It would not take a day to train these new recruits into battle-related troops. Therefore, although Cao Cao's subordinates frequently mobilized their troops, he was still unable to invade our side in a short period of time."

Liu Bei said: "What the military advisor said is very much. Then what should we focus on now?"

Zhuge Liang said: "The lord took the new land of the two rivers, and his foundation is unstable. The most important thing now is to consolidate himself. At the same time, he will fill up the main combat corps as soon as possible and train quickly.

In the last Hanzhong War, although the combat power of the main combat corps was still not very different from that of the soldiers under Cao Cao, some good aspects have been shown. For example, when the middle of the slums, the reaction was much faster than that of ordinary soldiers."

Liu Bei said: "This matter has been left to General Yan to take charge. I hope that in the next war, the main combat corps will show a truly superior combat power."

At this time, Fa Zheng suddenly said, "Now Cao Cao is in power. If the lord does not take the throne again, the Han Dynasty will be over!" After Fa Zheng finished speaking, he bowed to the ground and shouted, "Please ask the lord to take the throne!"

Although the generals were stunned by Fa Zheng's sudden change of topic, they still reacted quickly. They immediately stood up and bowed to the ground and said, "Please take the throne!"

Zhang Fei even said: "If the throne is still a foreign surname, my brother is the current emperor uncle, how can I not sit there?"

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong also bowed to the ground and shouted, "Please take the throne!"...

In the 212th AD, in the sixth year of Jian'an in the Han Dynasty.

In January, Cao Cao was called King of Wei.
