Wu Bei: "How many of the soldiers in this city listen to you?"
Fang Yucheng: "There are 300,000 defenders, and about 100,000 are at my disposal. But don't worry, general. I have been actively preparing for the past six months. I have ordered people to put medicine in the food in advance. They will sleep well tonight."
Especially dead. In half an hour, I will lead people to open the gate and welcome the general's troops to enter the gate!"
Wu Bei smiled and said: "You are a loyal minister of the imperial court, and the imperial court will definitely not treat you badly."
So the two sides agreed on a time, and Wu Bei went back to mobilize his troops.
Half an hour later, the city gates opened wide, and Wu Bei's 200,000 troops entered the city easily!
Soon, the two guards around Zhu Yuanlong noticed it. However, as soon as they left the yard, they were subdued by Wu Bei and fell to the ground unconscious! .??.
The next day, when all the soldiers woke up, they found that the flag had changed to that of the imperial court, and steel knives were placed on their necks.
"Those who surrender will not be killed!" Wu Bei's voice resounded throughout Sanshui Pass.
Many of these people were surrendered generals, and some were originally small farmers and businessmen. None of them were willing to risk their lives, so they all immediately surrendered and submitted to the imperial court.
When the news came out, Lin Fuguo and Wei Boxian were both surprised. Wu Bei did not suffer as expected at Sanshui Pass, and then went to ask Lin Fuguo, and he actually easily won this thousand-year-old pass!
The emperor was overjoyed and issued an edict to commend Wu Bei. He was conferred the rank of First-Rank Zhennan General, commanding an army of 500,000 men. He was also rewarded with a large amount of gold, silver and jewels.
As Wu Bei expected, after his victory, Wei Boxian also saw his extraordinary abilities, so Wei Chong, who had just been released, appeared in Wu Bei's military camp again.
This time, Wei Chong actually brought the reward that Wei Boxian had collected from the emperor, worth three hundred thousand taels of gold!
Seeing Wu Bei again, Wei Chong was much more polite. He said with a flattering face: "General Wu, congratulations on taking Sanshui Pass. His Majesty the Emperor is very happy!"
Wu Bei smiled and said: "This is me

It's a matter of duty. Does Mr. Wei have anything else to say?"
Wei Chong smiled and said: "My godfather asked me to tell the general that the general's affairs are his business. If you need anything from the general in the future, just ask him and he will do his best."
After hearing these words, Wu Bei understood that his position in the court was already stable. Neither Lin Fuguo nor Wei Boxian would offend him. Instead, they would fawn over him one after another because he already had the power to influence the situation in the court.
ability.
Wu Beidao: "Please go back to Manager Wei. If he needs me to do anything, I will spare no effort."
Wei Chong was overjoyed and said: "My godfather said that after passing Sanshui Pass, we will reach the rich land of the southern country. Will his people be allowed to take one or two of the cities?"
Wu Bei understood that Wei Boxian was worried that Lin Fuguo's people would capture all the cities and control Nanjiang Road like they controlled Donglin Road.
He immediately said: "This is a small matter, you just need to tell me when the time comes."
Wei Chong knew that this mission had been completed and said with a smile: "Thank you, General Wu!"
After taking Sanshui Pass, Wu Bei knew that Zhu Yuanlong would definitely send troops to capture it, so he immediately asked Fang Yucheng to train troops and prepare for war. With his 200,000 soldiers, plus the 300,000 soldiers in the city, he had 500,000 soldiers.
Sanshui Pass, sitting on three rivers, has three gates, facing three directions respectively. One side faces the imperial court, one side faces Zhu Yuanlong, and the other side faces another stronger separatist force.
On the top of the city tower, Wu Bei was sitting on a deck chair, drinking tea and eating snacks. There were several generals from Sanshui Pass next to him. He asked one of them: "I heard that Zhu Yuanlong is kinder. He doesn't harm the people and even gives them money."
Is this the case with the field industry?”
These generals looked at each other and were
The person who asked the question said: "General, these are just propaganda methods. Zhu Yuanlong proclaimed himself the Qingtian Emperor and established his capital in Nandu. After establishing the capital, he focused on eating, drinking and having fun. He also selected 10,000 people from among the people.
Many young and beautiful women provide him with entertainment day and night. The Qingtian Emperor Zhu Yuanlong has not left the palace for more than half a year. After all, there are countless beauties and delicious food in the palace, and he is not willing to come out at all."
Another general said: "Zhu Yuanlong has eight fierce generals and twelve heavenly kings under his command. These people each occupy a piece of land, levy and extort money, and are greedy for pleasure. Their relatives, friends, and subordinates use their power to oppress good people everywhere. They steal people, land, and things.
, draw your sword and kill anyone who doesn’t like you. In the entire Nanjiang Road, women don’t dare to go to the streets, shops don’t dare to open their doors, and farmers don’t dare to farm. It’s really hard for the people to make a living!”
Wu Bei: "So, the life of the local people is worse than when the imperial court ruled."
A general said: "Although the imperial court has its shortcomings, it still has some basic bottom lines that can keep the people alive. But these people have no bottom line at all and don't follow the rules. How can the people stand it?"
Wu Bei asked someone to open the map. He found that further south of Sanshui Pass was a city called Zhenshui. It was the second important place guarded by Zhu Yuanlong's heavy troops, with 250,000 defenders. However, Sanshui Pass was breached.
After that, the garrison of Zhenshui Town quickly increased to 350,000, and the number is still growing.
Wu Bei pointed at Zhenshui City and said, "Tonight, take down Zhenshui!"
A general said: "The guard of Zhenshui City is Hu Yanwei, one of the eight fierce generals, a strong man who can break the twenty-level seal."
After Wu Bei heard this, he didn't take it seriously and said: "It's only twenty realms, nothing to worry about!"
At nightfall, Wu Bei led only one hundred thousand elites and traveled under the stars and night to the foot of Zhenshui City. He rode a white horse and looked up. Standing on the city tower was a black-faced general, holding a snake spear and looking coldly.
Look at him.

Wu Bei drew out the dragon-slaying knife in his heart and said loudly: "The one in the city is Hu Yanwei?"
"It's your grandpa and me!" The other party laughed.
Wu Bei snorted, took a step forward, and transformed into a 300-meter giant. The dragon-slaying knife in his hand also turned into a giant knife, and he slashed down on the head.
The huge and terrifying sword light struck the city defense formation, and the formation instantly collapsed. Then the sword light shrank to about three meters in length and struck Hu Yanwei's body.
Hu Yanwei never expected that Wu Bei could cut through the city defense with one sword and even hit him. By the time he reacted, his body had been split into two!
As soon as the general who defended the city died, the soldiers in the city had no intention of fighting anymore. A few timid ones opened the city gate directly to welcome Wu Bei into the city!
After entering the city, Wu Bei recruited another 350,000 defenders.
After taking Zhenshui City, the emperor was overjoyed and summoned him to Beijing. As for Sanshui Pass, Yu Hualong went to take charge.
The next day, Wu Bei appeared in the palace hall and met the current emperor. The emperor was very happy and said with a smile: "Wu Aiqing, you fought with great bravery. You defeated Sanshui Pass and Zhenshui City, and collected hundreds of thousands of rebels.
I have made great contributions to the army. Whatever rewards you want, I will satisfy you!"
Wu Bei cupped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, being able to serve the court and do things for Your Majesty is the duty of the general, and there is no need for reward. However, the general's cultivation has reached a bottleneck, and he needs more methods to release the seal of power."
The emperor smiled and said: "This is easy. Come and bring the cards from the arsenal!"
Soon, a palace servant held a jade talisman on a plate and gave it to Wu Bei. The emperor said: "This is a hand card. With it, you can enter the arsenal at any time and practice the skills inside. This arsenal has been passed down from nine dynasties.
There are additions to it every dynasty, and the content in it cannot be learned even by all the smart people in the world in their lifetime."
