In the winter of the 17th year of Jian'an, early October.

This war that affected the three families of Cao, Liu and Sun, and covered dozens of counties and states in the five prefectures and counties finally stopped after more than half a year.

There are many military tactics, thousands of horses, thousands of leather chariots, hundreds of thousands of armored vehicles, and thousands of miles of food. The internal and external expenses, the use of guests, the materials of rubber paint, and the delivery of chariots and armors, are a thousand gold a day, and then a hundred thousand troops will be promoted. In this battle, the number of infantry, chariots and ships dispatched by all parties is more than a thousand; the distance of troops is more than a thousand miles; the materials and money consumed every day is more than a thousand gold?

Such large-scale wars, no matter who wins or loses, will have a huge impact on one's own logistics, economy, and even the people's livelihood and stability. Not to mention that the treasury of Jingyi and the people are empty and the people are in trouble, only Lei Yuan heard that there will be no fewer rebellions in Yizhou.

Many of the so-called thieves are ordinary people who have to rise up because they are unable to bear the exploitation of the government office, as well as major prefectures and counties that cannot be curbed, and barbarian leaders, etc. Since Yizhou changed hands, Zhuge Liang actually managed Shu and it was difficult to avoid rebellion. The local chaos faced by the Cao and Sun families is more than ten times higher than that of Jingyi and Yi?

Therefore, although the losers certainly need to rest for a long time, they want to make a comeback, the winners have no strength to expand their strength.

Of course, the three parties have their own opinions on which side wins and who fails.

For example, on Cao Gong's side, he claimed that he had won great victories in the third line of Jianghuai, Hanzhong and Jingzhou.

In Jianghuai, the general Zhang Liao, who was fighting against the enemy, broke into the battle with 800 warriors, killed Jiangdong's heavy general Chen Wu, Song Qian and others, severely damaged tens of thousands of people in Jiangdong, and almost captured Sun Quan alive. After this battle, the boy from Jiangdong heard about Zhang Liao's name and did not dare to cry at night. Zhang Liao then used this achievement to be the general of the Eastern Expedition and commanded the army of Jianghuai.

This is an unquestionable brilliant victory, which can even cover up Xiahou Dun's failure.

And the other two lines need to be slightly decorated.

For example, in Hanzhong, it was a brave general of Liangzhou. Yan Xing, the prefect of Jianwei, fought in adversity, killed Wu Lan, the famous general of Yizhou, and defeated Ling Bao and Deng Xian's troops continuously, and his power was greatly enhanced. Because Yan Xing had been dependent on Cao Gong several years ago and sent his parents to Yecheng, Cao Gong then regarded Yan Xing's father as a marquis, and also represented Yan's actions to suppress the general and commanded the troops of Liangzhou. Deputy Prime Minister Cao Pi personally held a banquet to express condolences, and pulled Yan Xing's arm to the left and right, "This is my right-hand arm."

On Jingzhou, because the defeat at Jiangling City was too clear, there was really no suitable angle. In the end, the officials traded the mark and focused on boasting about the bravery and good fighting of the new cavalry general Cao Zhang. Cao Zhang was indeed a rare brave general. Later, in the small-scale battles between the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Jingzhou Army, they had dozens of enemy troops, which was reasonable. In addition, Wen Pin, the prefect of Jiangxia, repelled the Jingzhou navy and advanced to the title of Marquis of Yanshouting to fight against the general.

Cao Gong personally raised the army in Xudu and awarded these awards and appointments one by one. At the beginning of the year, the emperor ordered Prime Minister Cao to praise him for being accused of not being named, not going to the court, and going to the palace with his sword and shoes. As Xiao He's story, Cao Gong did not go to Xudu to personally accept this honor. Until now, Cao Gong saw the emperor once a long time ago, but he used all these honors.

At the same time, there was another rumor in Xudu's court, saying that he would build the ancient and feudal fifth grade.

However, the previous proposal was clearly a matter of building momentum for Prime Minister Cao to serve as the Han Dynasty. At this moment, many people said that when the situation is so chaotic today, it is better to be granted the title of Sun Quan from Jiangdong, Ma Chao from Liangzhou, and Liu Zhang from Yizhou as Dukes, hoping that they would be the assistants of the Han family. Therefore, the original opponents could not understand Cao Gong's true intentions for a while, and even the opposition in the court was not as powerful as before.

As for Sun Quan, of course, it is also worthy of publicity.

Jiangdong used the navy as a backbone, and traverseed the rivers, but if the northern forces reached the riverside, the natural danger would actually be shared by the two families. The navy might not always have the advantage. Therefore, after the Red Cliff, Jiangdong repeatedly launched large troops to compete for Hefei, so as to completely force Cao's army to leave the southern water network zone, making the Jianghuai zone another line of defense beyond the natural danger.

Although Hefei remained unmoved for several years, this time it had captured Wancheng. Wancheng, as the last fortress of Cao's army close to the river, has changed hands, and it has opened the door to the Jianghuai River. From now on, the Jiangdong army has a solid stronghold on the north bank, which can attack and retreat and defend, no longer as limited to the rise and fall of the water as before.

As for the two times Zhang Liao showed off his power...hehe, it was insignificant to be a small defeat in the big victory.

The disguised winners were so lively, and the real winners captured Hanzhong with successive victories, and then intimidated the forces of Liu Bei, the left general in Guanzhong, and were a little silent for a moment.

After Liu Xuande seized Hanzhong, he did not return to Chengdu. Instead, he continued to stay in Nanzheng with his huge civil and military subordinates, and arranged for his subordinates to come forward to repair the damage suffered by the city. At the same time, Zhuge Liang, the military advisor stationed in Chengdu, also continued to mobilize a large amount of supplies to Hanzhong. On the contrary, there was no news about the promotion and reward of the generals who made contributions to the previous meritorious service.

Some impatient generals and schools inevitably complain, while those who are smarter are becoming more and more excited. Gradually, some news spread from smart people, so more and more people in the Jingyi states began to look forward to it.

Lei Yuan didn't pay much attention to this.

Although the various things in this life are gradually different from the memories of the previous life, the general trend has not yet reversed, and Lei Yuan can always guess some trends. However, he is not keen on following the dragon, so he resigns from Guan Yu one day and is finally able to return to Yidao City, let go of trivial matters and accompany Zhao Xiang, who has been pregnant for more than eight months.

With Zhao Xiang's status, of course, there is no shortage of people serving him. Not to mention the care of the Lei clan in Lujiang, Lei Yuan also sent many letters in Jiangling. According to his memory in his mind, he required food, proper exercise, and even made suggestions on sleeping posture and clothing.

Zhao Xiang's physical foundation is much stronger than that of ordinary women, but her pregnancy reaction is stronger, she is not very suitable for diet, and she sleeps well at night. So by this time, her temperament inevitably changes a little, not as calm as before.

On the day when Lei Yuan returned to Yidao, Zhao Xiang was filled with joy and tears after receiving his husband. Lei Yuan repeatedly asked her why she did this. She said that she had been worried and afraid that Lei Yuan had encountered an accident in Jianghuai day and night, and was afraid that the boy she was pregnant was not a boy and could not be the heir to the Lei family of Lujiang. It was not until this moment that she felt a little relieved.

Lei Yuan couldn't help laughing. After laughing, he told Zhao Xiang that as a warrior, he would inevitably charge forward and have no choice. But if I had to make a decision, I would probably surrender to the enemy in order to preserve a useful body.

Zhao Xiang laughed first after hearing this, and then continued to furiously say, "How can my husband bow down to serve the traitors!" So he invited Lei Yuan out of the dormitory that night and let him sleep in the side room where he handled official duties and studied all night."

Lei Yuan begged for mercy repeatedly, but was still driven out. He himself knew that this was ridiculous, but the situation did not anger him. Instead, he felt that his wife became more and more cute.
