In April of the first year of Xingyuan, Zhao Yun led 20,000 guard cavalry and 5,000 Beiting cavalry to arrive at the capital of Zhenxi Dudu Prefecture, which was also the former capital of Dayuan.

Zhenxicheng was originally called Guishancheng. In the 11th year of Yande, Emperor Guo Peng ordered Guishancheng to be renamed Zhenxicheng, meaning Yongzhenxi.

Afterwards, this place became the base for the Protectorate of the West Protectorate, Cao Ang, and Cao Xiu, commander of the Protectorate of the West Protectorate.

A few days after Zhao Yun arrived in Zhenxicheng, Guan Yu also arrived in Zhenxicheng on time and met with the main force led by Zhao Yun. All the troops of this Western Expedition were arrived and the military meeting could be held.

Guan Yu led the 5,000-Annan Iron Cavalry to arrive in Zhenxicheng like lightning. He was extremely fast and majestic. He walked with great vigor. He could not tell that he was already a 55-year-old veteran and looked very energetic.

In recent years, after guarding the Annan Protectorate and killing a group of people with bad intentions, he had nothing to do. In addition to training the army, he would train the army, either rest by himself or patrol routinely, and there was nothing big.

However, unlike Zhang Fei, Guan Yu could withstand loneliness.

He has a hobby of studying. When he has nothing to do, he likes to make a cup of tea that Guo Peng gave him to drink, and leans on the lounge chair that Guo Peng gave him to study. Others don’t know about it and think this is an old man who is a prosperous person.

After reading "Spring and Autumn", I started reading "The Book of Songs", as if I regarded myself as an old scholar.

After the paper became popular, Guan Yu liked to write on paper. At first, he copied some words and sentences he liked, and later he started writing articles by himself. He only wrote some random things he thought of. Later, he had the idea of ​​writing military books inexplicably.

At the end of last year, Guan Yu heard about the movable type printing technology and the Royal Printing Department. When he learned that someone could gain fame and fortune by writing books and distributed his works all over the world, he immediately became interested and decided to write a military book.

This is very suitable for your major. When you are placed in the martial arts lecture hall for students to learn, you can not only leave history for your military fame, but also be remembered by students forever because of military books.

This made Guan Yu look forward to it, so Guan Yu began to write a military book with slight words.

However, I have many thoughts in my mind, but I don’t know how to express it when I fall to the end of the pen. It seems that a ball of yarn can’t find the thread end.

He has not received formal education and relies entirely on his acquired learning, reading, and writing, but his ability to express his meaning through words still needs to be learned.

Guan Yu overestimated himself a little, so he made a strong record of six words after working hard for seven days.

After experiencing this tragic battle, Guan Yu recognized the limit of his ability, and he put his ambitions on hold because of the headache.

He suddenly realized that on the battlefield of culture, he might not be much better than the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

But he did not give up, but instead looked for old scholars who could write articles everywhere, hoping to learn how to use words, phrases and sentences to write articles.

In addition to writing books, he also likes to go to the military camp to educate the recruits in person and teach them to read.

If you can't write a book, you can still recognize words.

Guan Yu likes to get along with the soldiers at the bottom as a teacher, take off his military uniform and wear Confucian uniforms, hold books to teach soldiers to read, making him feel like a cultural person, which makes him feel satisfied, and therefore he has a harmonious relationship with the soldiers at the bottom.

Therefore, Guan Yu's daily life is not so boring. His spiritual world is very rich and colorful, much better than Zhang Fei.

But when the war begins, he will put on the battle and return to his former majesty.

Once the five thousand army set out, Guan Yu took the lead and rushed to the front, still as powerful as thirty years ago.

After the army arrived in Zhenxicheng, Guan Yu had no time to see his son, so he immediately went to pay homage to Zhao Yun.

"Zilong, long time no see."

"The clouds have long been gone."

Zhao Yun and Guan Yu met, and the old friends met again, and they were very sad.

Once upon a time, they fought together in northern Xinjiang, experienced life and death, spanning thirty years, and fought side by side again. How could they not sigh?

Guan Yu also met Zhang Fei, who had not met for a while. After a few words, Zhao Yun held a formal combat meeting. All the relevant people were available and all joined the military discussion.

Head coach Zhao Yun, deputy generals Cao Chun, Li Dian, and veteran generals such as Cao Xiu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, as well as Cao Zhen and Guan Ping.

Guan Yu saw his eldest son Guan Ping at the military meeting. He smiled and nodded at Guan Ping with a clear expression. Guan Ping was surprised, but he could not get close to his father due to the occasion.

Zhao Yun has already started discussing the entry.

As the person who knows the local situation best, Cao Ang told Zhao Yun all the local situation.

"As far as we know, there is no fixed royal city in Kangju. King Kangju lives in one place in summer and in winter, and there are five little kings under it, called the Five Kings of Kangju, all of whom follow their orders and follow their battles.

The current Kangju King is not the original Kangju King. After the defeat, the Kangju King was killed by the rebels in the country. The current Kangju King is a person who later defeated other opponents and was stronger, not a weak person.

Kangju Kingdom is good at using cavalry. The cavalry is relatively large in scale, with many cattle, sheep, horses and other livestock, and is relatively rich. He was once a vassal of the Kushan Kingdom. However, during the chaos in the Kushan Kingdom, the Kangju King broke away from the control of the Kushan Kingdom, and the Kushan Kingdom was powerless."

Cao Ang is obviously a qualified Protectorate in the West, and has a clear understanding of the political and military situation in Central Asia, providing Zhao Yun with a good reference.

"I remember that the Kushan civil strife was a matter of nine or ten years in Yande. Is it over now?"

Zhao Yun asked.

"It has not ended. According to our spies' reward, this time, the civil war between the north and south of Kushan was quite fierce. The Kushan lord suppressed the rebellion and was in danger. The domestic situation was unstable. Therefore, Kangju took advantage of the situation to get rid of control, and the Kushan lord had no choice."

Cao Ang replied.

Zhao Yun nodded.

"It seems that the Kushan Kingdom is powerless in this battle, so what about the resting kingdom?"

Cao Ang smiled.

"There seems to be a dispute between the Sabre Kingdom and the Lou Mo Kingdom. According to our spies, the two countries are fighting on the border. If we fight with the Kangju Kingdom, the Sabre will naturally be unable to interfere."

"Oh? In this way, sending troops to attack Kangju Kingdom at this time is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"

Zhao Yun was quite surprised: "Neijing Kingdom and Kushan Kingdom are unable to intervene. If our army fights quickly and decides quickly, it can pacify Kangju in one fell swoop, creating a certain fact, so that these two countries are willing to interfere but are unable to turn the world back."

“That’s exactly that.”

Cao Ang smiled and said, "Your Majesty chose the opportunity that makes me feel very sophisticated. At this time, when using troops, there are no reinforcements outside Kangju, so I can only fight alone. His troops do not have the three treasures of cavalry, and his equipment is far inferior to our army. Once the war begins, our army will inevitably be as powerful as ours."

Zhao Yun was very happy.

"If I cannot win such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if I ask King Kangju to apologize to His Majesty outside Luoyang City, it will be useless to trust His Majesty in me!"

Zhao Yun stood up and slapped the table.

"You guys, this opportunity for military use is once a lifetime. At this critical moment, we must work together to pacify Kangju's country in one fell swoop, capture the King of Kangju alive, and offer it to Your Majesty!"

"Capture the King of Kangju alive!"

The generals shouted loudly.

Afterwards, Zhao Yun began to assign tasks.

"In this battle, Zhang Fei, who has experience in fighting the Kangju army, was the vanguard, and Cao Chun was the deputy vanguard. You and the two of you led 5,000 troops to set out first, explore the way, and find the main force of the Kangju army.

Small troops can be annihilated, but when encountering large main forces, they cannot fight in a long time. They must retreat immediately and join the main forces. They must never fight with them. Do you understand?"

Zhao Yun took out his token of troops and handed it to Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei was overjoyed.

"I see!"

After taking the token, Zhang Fei ran out in a flash. Cao Chun was stunned and immediately followed him.

Zhao Yun was depressed for a while and continued to assign tasks. After the assignment was completed, Zhao Yun ordered to start preparing to march immediately. The soldiers were very fast and could not give Kangju people enough reaction time.

There are many business and tourist destinations in the Western Regions. The news of the Wei army's large-scale advancement must have been learned by these business arrivals. They may be rushing back to their country to send the specific news back to make more preparations for their country.

So at this time, you must seize the time even more and not be slackening at all.

Zhao Yun's judgment was correct. The news that the Wei army had launched a large number of troops to arrive at the Zhenxi Protectorate could not be concealed from the Central Asian countries and many powerful groups. They all learned that the Wei army came from the Western Regions and gathered at the Zhenxi Protectorate, with a population of about tens of thousands.

The strong combat effectiveness of the Wei army was fully reflected in the achievements of eliminating the Dayuan Kingdom and repelling the Kangju army. The Central Asian countries were all afraid of the Wei army and the Wei State.

In the years that followed, the Wei army had no major military operations, and some minor actions were not directed at Central Asian countries, and there was no tendency to fight for the destruction of a country.

But this wave seems to have a tendency to war. Otherwise, what would tens of thousands of Wei troops go to Zhenxi Protectorate to gather in large numbers?

Some well-informed people tried to find familiar Han merchants to learn about the situation, but Han merchants also said that they did not know the situation and did not know why the army came here.

However, the merchants had the most informed information and the most sensitive sense of smell. They instinctively felt that they were going to fight, so they returned to the Protectorate of Zhenxi and stopped going out.

The storm is about to come and the wind fills the building, and the smell of war permeates the sky above Central Asia and cannot dissipate for a long time.

The Kushan Emperor soon learned about the news, which was early May of the first year of Xingyuan.

He was shocked after learning the news and thought that the State of Wei was taking advantage of the situation. After learning that they were in civil strife, he wanted to interfere with the benefits of every minute.

He was also guilty of being a thief. When the Wei army was dealing with Dayuan, he thought about preventing Wei from interfering in the situation in Central Asia, so he planned to capture the envoys of Wei and Wei to turn against each other and send troops to repel the Wei army.

As a result, civil strife broke out, and it has not been completely quelled yet. There are still people in the rebellion and are quite uneasy inside. At this time, if Wei State intervenes and supports someone to play against him, the problem will be huge.

So he was very nervous and sent many spies to the border to inquire about the situation and learn about the specific information.

After a lot of effort, I bribed many local people, and then I learned that the Wei army's deployment direction was heading west, and the target should not be Kushan, nor the Aisi next to Kushan, but the Kangju Kingdom in the north of them.

After confirmation, the Kushan Emperor suddenly remembered the news that Kangju Kingdom had sent troops to help Dayuan Kingdom resist the Wei army, and was immediately overjoyed.

OK OK OK As long as it is not a problem for me, if the Wei people come to cause trouble at this time, it will be a big problem.

So after thinking about it, the Kushan Emperor decided to keep a small number of troops to guard the north, and he devoted all his energy to the southern anti-rebellion war and tried to kill all the rebels as soon as possible.
