In the spring of 211 AD, after Gongsun Bai was completely settled in the land south of the Yangtze River, he drove back to the capital.
Fastest updates Zhang Zhao was appointed as the assassin of Yangzhou, and the rest of Gu Yong, Zhang Hong, Bu Hu and others were all reused, Gan Ning was appointed as the general of Zhennan, leading an army of 100,000 to defend the land south of the Yangtze River, and Lü Meng was appointed as the general of Pingnan, leading an army of 50,000 to guard Jiaozhou.
More than 300,000 troops still followed Gongsun Bai back to Jiangbei and returned to their respective areas, ready to be dispatched at any time.
And Lu Xun also followed Gongsun Bai back to Beijing, and was worshiped as the Great Honglu, ranking one of the Nine Qings.
The rest of Huang Zhong and Wei Yan were also worshipped as General Anbei and General Andong respectively for their outstanding achievements in the Battle of the Southern Expedition.
The only place left in the world is Yizhou, but in this southern expedition, more than 300,000 soldiers and horses were dispatched at the beginning of the war, and nearly 500,000 people who finally participated in the Yan Army War, plus the people who transported grain and grass and baggage, the total consumption of more than one million people, countless money and grain, plus in order to restore the production order in Jiangnan and Jiangdong after the war, tens of millions of grain and grass were mobilized to help the people in southern Jinan, so that the treasury of Dayan was empty, and the grain prices in various parts of the Central Plains also rose.
Therefore, although Gongsun Bai wanted to capture Yizhou as soon as possible and dominate the world, in order not to create too much burden on the people, he decided to recuperate for two years, and at the same time ordered all the armies to grow their own fields and grow grain for self-sufficiency during the recuperation period, so as to reduce the burden of the people.
In addition, Gongsun Bai also ordered all kinds of soldiers and horses to strengthen the training of mountain warfare, and in addition to working in the tuntian, the soldiers and horses were drawn to the mountains and fields for training, so that the soldiers could climb the mountains and cross the mountains as if they were walking on flat ground.
The Central Plains and the north are mostly flat, and naturally the cavalry dominates; The rivers and lakes in the south of the Yangtze River are vertical and horizontal, and they dominate with water warfare; However, the land of Yizhou is mountainous, and if you want to conquer Yizhou, you must practice hard in mountain warfare.
The world is peaceful, Dayan and Shu Han have been safe for two consecutive years, although there are small frictions on the border of Yizhou from time to time, but they are only limited to small frictions, and there are no big soldiers.
Gongsun Bai was busy recuperating, and Liu Bei was also busy settling Yizhou.
The Northland and the Central Plains, after two years of recuperation, have become more and more prosperous and prosperous.
In the areas of Jing, Yang and Jiaozhou, potatoes, sweet potatoes and Champa rice were promoted, and the introduction of sophisticated agricultural tools such as Quyuan plows, keel waterwheels, and other sophisticated iron tools made the productivity of Jiangnan further improved.
In the past two years, the economy of the south of the Yangtze River has been able to develop very quickly, and even in the Taihu Lake and Poyang Lake areas, the wind and rain have been smooth for many years, and since the Champong rice has been widely planted, the people have been extremely wealthy, and there is a faint tendency to surpass the Central Plains.
The rise of the shipbuilding industry in the south of the Yangtze River has gradually developed the shipping industry, and the goods in the south of the Yangtze River do not need to go over the mountains and mountains, cross the river and wade through the water, and go to the Central Plains and the North, but only need to use ships to carry them along the coastline to the north, transport them to Qingzhou and Liaodong, and then take the dry road to Youzhou and the Central Plains, and the time on the road has been reduced a lot, so that the economic exchanges between the north and the south have been further strengthened.
At this moment, the soldiers of the Yan Army, who had lived a peaceful life for two years, were ready to move again.
On a certain day in the spring of 213 AD, Emperor Yan's grandson Bai was thirty-eight years old.
On the day of the big birthday, the whole world celebrates, and the people of the capital put up lanterns and are as joyful as a festival.
Accepting the invitation of hundreds of officials, Gongsun Bai granted amnesty to the world, except for political prisoners, malicious murderers and other serious crimes, the rest were acquitted.
Chengfu Palace, string music in unison, a peaceful and lively.
His Majesty Emperor Yan invited a banquet for hundreds of officials, and the cases were lined up from the hall to the door, full of civil and military officials.
The first Xun on the left, the first Zhao Yun on the right, Jia Xu on the left, the second Xun Yu on the right, and other civil and military officials are arranged in turn.
Above the lobby in the middle, the three cases in the middle are together, which is the seat of the Son of Heaven and the queen of the two palaces, and there are four tables in the back, which are the seats of the four nobles in the palace.
At the door of the main hall, the gong-like voice of Wu Ming, the tiger general, sounded: "Your Majesty has arrived" Hundreds of officials stood up one after another and shouted in unison: "Wait for Your Majesty for ten thousand years" At the entrance of the main hall, a commotion sounded, and a group of people poured into the hall, stunned the civil and military officials.
I saw Gongsun Bai coming side by side with Zhang Mo and Liu Ling, followed by Sun Shangxiang, Bai Yao, Zhen Mi and Li Wei, and Gongsun Bai hugged Gongsun Hao, the new son that Liu Ling gave him.
Zhang Mo and the imperial concubine behind him are either holding the princess who can walk independently, or holding a dragon who can't walk yet.
Rao is like this, behind Gongsun Bai, there are two princes pulling the back of his crown and walking into the hall in a chaotic manner.
In the more than two years of recuperation, Gongsun Bai has added three princes and two princesses The civil and military officials looked at each other and were speechless.
Guo Jia, Pang Tong, Xu Shu, Jia Xu, Xun and others each glanced at each other, their expressions complicated.
Zhao Yun and Zhang, Xu Huang, Yan Liang, Tai Shici, Zhang Liao and other fierce generals were also exchanging their eyes and nodding to each other, as if they had a tacit understanding.
Gongsun Bai handed over the Gongsun Hao in his hand to Liu Ling, sat down in front of the dragon case in the middle, glanced around at the hundred officials, picked up the wine bottle in front of him, and said with a smile: "Today is my birthday, so please come to celebrate, today I led all the sons and princesses to come, because you are loyal to the Yan family, I have long regarded you as my relatives, haha, please drink this cup."
The faces of the hundred officials were full of gratitude, and they all raised the wine bottles and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty Xie" The monarchs and ministers drank it all together.
"Dance" With a slight footsteps, more than a dozen palace maids dressed in gorgeous palace costumes came gracefully, and with the graceful dancing shadows, the crisp singing like silver bells sounded in the hall.
"The peach is dying, scorching its bloom.
The son is home, and it is appropriate for him to live in his room.
The peach is dying, in fact.
The son is home, and his family room is appropriate.
The peach is dying, and its leaves are blooming.
The son is at home, and it is appropriate for his family" Wine and beauty, how intoxicating and unconsciously, between the monarch and the minister has been drunk three times, and everyone has been drunk.
Finally, the dance music ended, and the palace maid in fancy clothes bowed and retreated.
One person stood up, picked up the wine bottle in front of him and walked to Gongsun Bai's dragon case, it was Xun, one of the three princes.
"Old Minister Xun, I would like to congratulate Your Majesty on this wine for ten thousand years" Seeing Xun come to toast, Gongsun Bai had a look of respect on his face, and he also picked up the wine bottle and stood up, and said with a smile: "Lord Situ doesn't need to be polite. ” After speaking, he drank with him.
After Xun finished drinking, he did not leave, but beckoned to the waiter next to him, and one of the waiters hurriedly filled him and Gongsun Bai again.
Xun once again picked up the wine bottle with a solemn face, and said to Gongsun Bai: "The minister would like to use this wine to wish His Majesty that within this year, he will pacify Xishu and dominate the world." ” Gongsun Bai's face turned slightly, and then he smiled and raised the wine bottle, looking at everyone: "What do you think Aiqing thinks?"
Jia Xu stood up and said loudly: "Situ is reasonable, Xishu is uneven, and He Anchen of the world asks His Majesty to send troops to conquer Xishu and dominate the world." ” Zhao Yun and other military generals also shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, the ministers and others train their troops day and night, and wait for the day and night, just for the world is not peaceful, and it is difficult to sleep and eat, please conquer Xishu, go straight to Chengdu, and capture the traitor Liu Bei alive, please Your Majesty's permission" Gongsun Bai's face was light, and he laughed: "Today is my birthday banquet, or the swearing-in meeting."

All the soldiers bowed together and said, "The ministers are reckless, and I ask Your Majesty for forgiveness." ” Gongsun Bai looked at the fierce generals in front of him, and sneered: "Okay, I know that if you wait for two years and don't fight, your bones will itch."
I will allow you, if you can't capture Xishu, you will wait for you to come to see me one by one. ” Everyone responded in unison: "We must not disgrace our mission, otherwise we will fight to the death" Gongsun Bai shouted: "Where is Jia Xu?"
Jia Xu hurriedly came out of the crowd: "The minister is here" Gongsun Bai asked: "In the past, I asked you to send people to Xishu to investigate and draw a topographic map of Xishu, how is it now?"
Jia Xu took out a thick picture album from his bosom and said respectfully: "It was completed a year ago, and the minister brought it with him day and night, and I hereby present it to Your Majesty."
Gongsun Bai smiled mockingly and scolded the old fox.
Obviously, it is impossible to carry such a thick album with you all the time, and this old fox is also prepared.
Gongsun Bai continued to drink and asked, "Where are Zhang and Gao Shun?"
Zhang and Gao Shun hurriedly puffed up their chests and responded in a loud voice: "The last general will be" "You and others will each lead 50,000 elite soldiers, attack Yanzhong from Guanzhong, and then attack Chengdu through Yang'an, Xiameng Pass, Jiange, Fuxian, and Mianzhu Pass, and make Pang Tong serve as the military division of the army, and all matters of battle need to be discussed with him."
"Obey" "Order Zhang Liao and Xu Huang to lead 50,000 elite soldiers from Tianshui, cross Qishan, pass through Wujie, Qiaotou, Yinping, Jiangyou, Fuxian, Mianzhuguan line, attack Chengdu, and make Xu Shu the military division with the army, and negotiate everything to do."
"Obey" "Order Huang Zhong and Gan Ning to lead 20,000 troops each, and order Sima Yi to be the military division of the army, starting from Nanjun, going up the river, attacking Ba County, mainly to contain it, and not to go deep without authorization."
"Obey" Gongsun Bai deployed the offensive route of the three-way western expedition army in one go, and designated the main general and military division respectively, without any delay.
The hundred officials looked at each other and were dumbfounded.
"Where are Tai Shi Ci and Yan Liang?"
Tai Shi Ci and Yan Liang, who had been waiting for a long time, heard Gongsun Bai's roll call, and they both couldn't wait to stand up and responded loudly: "The end will be" Gongsun Bai smiled slightly: "This expedition to the west is very important, and I must drive the expedition in person, and go all the way with Bai Ma Yi."
The safety of the Beijing division and the stability of the whole country depend on you and other cavalry, and the initial decision of Mobei and Guanxi may be repeated, so you and Jia Xu will sit in the Beijing division and respond to the rear, so that I can rest assured that I can go west. ” Tai Shi Ci and Yan Liang couldn't help but be anxious when they heard that Gongsun Bai asked them to stay in the capital, but if they thought about it carefully, Yizhou was mountainous, and the advantage of the cavalry could not be brought into play at all, not to mention that there were already five thousand white horse servants of Zhao Yun to follow, and there was really no need to bring nearly 30,000 cavalry to follow, so they had to respond weakly: "Obey the order." ” In April of the lunar calendar of 213 AD, the Yan army was divided into three routes, with a total of 250,000 troops, and marched into Xishu, intending to dominate the world.
And Gongsun Bai, the emperor who grew up in the army, attached great importance to this western expedition, and once again drove the expedition in person, pointing his sword to the west.
The 250,000-strong army marched out of the camp amid impassioned and heroic shouts.
In the palace, six women climbed up and looked at each other, looking extremely lost.
"Sisters, Your Majesty is too hateful, and he even sang a double reed with a group of ministers, and after all, he still has to go to the royal conquest.
I don't know when I can go back.
Sun Shangxiang said indignantly.
The women were speechless for a while.
Zhang Mo smiled: "Let him go, if he is locked up in the palace, I am afraid that he will be suffocated, I think he is even more belligerent than those generals." ”:
