At the beginning of the tenth year of the Great Lifting Period, the traditional New Year has just passed and spring flowers are blooming.
More than 10 million people from the northwest from "Xiwu" finally arrived at the Eighteen Prefectures of Xiangyang at the end of the year, and were divided into ten parts. They were placed in ten of the Eighteen Prefectures of Xiangyang respectively, and received support from Dali, and lived a stable life.
A prosperous new year.
Because of Dali's kind actions and the fact that Dali did not give up any of the old, weak, sick or disabled during the migration for several months, these more than 10 million people from the northwest who had no choice but to migrate began to return to Dali.
Just after the New Year, the Li army in the Tiandu area, with Yu Juluo as the commander, led an army of five million and gathered in the Luoshui area of Yiyang Prefecture.
Lihuang Wuxin personally led the nine million troops of the Eighteen Prefectures of Xiangyang, known as an army of tens of millions, and gathered on the banks of Fancheng, aiming directly at Fancheng, the important city of ancient Jingzhou.
The ancient Jingzhou area between the Zhejiang River and the Feishui River is the target of the Li Army this time. If it can be captured, it will be able to completely open up Tiandu and the Eighteen Prefectures of Xiangyang, making the Dali territory connected and no longer as before
They generally live in the north and the south.
Yuan Shu had already prepared. As soon as the Li army moved, Yuan Shu's army also began to set off in large areas.
Ji Ling, the first general under Yuan Shu, led an army of 15 million people into Yiyang Mansion. The army was three times that of Yu Juluo's army.
Yuan Shu then personally led his generals Zhang Xun, Lei Bo, Han Xian, Han Hao, Leju, etc., leading an army of 23 million, known as an army of 30 million, and stationed in Fancheng, Xinye, Zaoyang, and Chengyijiao respectively.
The momentum is huge.
The three armies have not moved yet, food and grass go first!
The past few months were preparation time for both sides. The army began to gather, supplies and equipment were gradually gathered and transported, and both sides mobilized a large number of people to serve as logistics.
In Dali, Emperor Li granted amnesty to those who participated in post-war logistics transportation. They could work as laborers or be paid for their labor, and it was up to the individual to choose independently. This was an unprecedented act of benevolence in the Han Dynasty.
In Wu Xin's view, this was a matter of course, but it earned Wu Xin countless reputations for benevolence and virtue.
On this day, Xiangyang Mansion, the headquarters of Qianjiang League... Canglong Mansion.
The battle with Yuan Shu was imminent, and the war was expected to be continuous in the future. Therefore, Wu Xin specially summoned the seven major families of the First Alliance and the Five Associations of the Eighteenth House of Xiangyang. The leader of the Qianjiang Alliance, Canglong King Canglong Cang, hosted a banquet to build good relations or appease them.
They want to prevent these thirteen major forces from being too powerful and holding them back, which is also a big trouble.
The banquet was even held at Canglong Mansion, just to reduce the wariness of the thirteen major forces and gain some favor.
The Eighteenth Mansion of Xiangyang is nominally subordinate to Emperor Yuechan Diaochan. This time the emperor Wu Xin returns, everyone can see clearly that Wu Xin is the true god.
When Wu Xin arrived, all the thirteen major forces had arrived. This was also a sign of respect for Emperor Li. Moreover, the old man who came was the leader, clan leader, host and landlord, so naturally he came forward and received him in person!
In addition to building a good relationship this time, it was also a shock. Wu Xin specially made the golden unicorn appear in its original form and rode there.
The original form of the Golden Kirin was a behemoth that was a hundred feet tall. It was naturally not suitable for riding, let alone appearing in Xiangyang City. It was also the strongest form of the Golden Kirin.
The golden unicorn that Wu Xin rides is normally made of pure gold, with a dazzling golden light. It is about nine feet tall and eight feet long.
In fact, just in the form of pure gold, it is very attractive. Coupled with the legendary auspicious beast Qilin, it has turned heads all the way, talked about it, prostrated on the streets, and shouted long live the saint, the virtuous person, etc.
Countless.
In a sense, the auspicious beast is inherently auspicious, represents nobility and benevolence, and is the mount of a saint.
For the emperor, it represents the destination of destiny!
The above was originally Wu Xin's goal, and it was indeed achieved!
"Congratulations to Emperor Li! Your humble abode will be filled with glory when Emperor Li comes!"
When they arrived at Canglong Mansion, the old man and the leaders of the thirteen major forces, elders, core personnel, etc., a total of about hundreds of people, responded solemnly. The old man with pale hair and beard was the first to come forward to greet him with great respect and enthusiasm.
According to Wu Xin's investigation, Mr. Cang is not an informant of any force.
Mr. Cang is a native of Xiangyang Prefecture. He is highly respected. Not only is he the oldest and leader of the strongest alliance in Xiangyang Prefecture, he is also the person with the strongest cultivation base.
Of course, that was before Da Li took charge of Xiangyang Mansion...
"Congratulations to Emperor Li!"
The others bowed together in a tacit understanding, with a great momentum, a harmonious atmosphere, and a peaceful atmosphere.
"I have admired Mr. Cang for a long time and wanted to pay him a visit. However, due to busy schedules, I have only come now. I am really ashamed!"
Wu Xin jumped off the golden unicorn, approached the old man closely, and said repeatedly, which made the old man dare not dare.
Since ancient times, the people have not fought with officials, not to mention that now the Eighteenth House of Xiangyang is already the territory of Li Huang Wuxin. Although Li Huang's cultivation level is not as high as that of Mr. Cang, his strength is definitely better.
The fame and rise of Lihuang Wuxin was achieved by hard work, not by strategy, benevolence, fame, etc. It is somewhat similar to Wuhuang Sunce.
Sun Ce, the emperor of Wu, still had some influence from his father, but Wu Xin, the emperor of Li, was purely an outsider and only relied on himself; Emperor Liu Bei of Shu relied on his benevolence and his relationship with the Han clan; Emperor Cao Cao of Wei relied on his father's influence.
His adoptive father... Cao Teng, one of the ten constant servants, is the starting point. His mind is as scheming as the sea, and he rides on the wind all the way.
Wu Xin turned to the representatives of the various forces around him and returned the greeting in a kind and polite manner: "I have heard of your reputation for a long time. Today, I would like to borrow Mr. Cang's noble land to get acquainted with each other and have some exchanges. We are all our own, so there is no need to be polite!"
Everyone was afraid to shout. Wu Xin was not familiar with them, but they were very familiar with Lihuang Wu Xin and had seen him many times with their own eyes!
"The majesty of Emperor Li is like thunder piercing the ears. When I see him today, he is indeed a dragon among men and an auspicious beast. He is just like a tiger with wings added to his destiny."
After everyone saw the ceremony, it was time to enter the mansion. A sweet and heart-warming voice sounded like the sound of flowing water in the deep mountains or the cry of orioles in the empty valley, which made people feel refreshed and happy.
Follow the sound...
Next to the old man, stood a beautiful woman with bright eyes, noble purple clothes, and a slim and graceful body. It was this girl.
Purely in terms of figure and appearance, this girl is no lower than Cai Yan, Zou Li, Bu Ruyu and other girls. Half of the people present kept peeking at her and never tired of it.
It is a kind of pure and pure beauty, quiet and gentle, which makes people look at it with a clear heart. Even standing aside, they will feel happy both physically and mentally.
To describe it concisely, it is like the bright moon in a silent moonlit night, quiet, pure and flawless!
"This is..." Wu Xin's eyelids twitched, and he looked at the old man in surprise and confusion and asked.
You must know that this banquet is not simple. The qualified participants are at worst elders or close confidants of various forces. The only qualified speakers in front of you are the leaders of various forces!
This woman was just giving a salute before and didn't say anything, but now she speaks alone again. Coupled with her appearance and temperament, it's obviously not simple!
According to Wu Xin's estimation, this is a female genius no less than Cai Yan...
But why didn’t Wu Xin know when such a number one person came to Xiangyang Mansion?
Even though Wu Xin had been in the Han Dynasty for many years, he didn't even know that such a number one person existed!
"Daughter of the Fifth Mingyue, I have admired Emperor Li for a long time. I have taken the liberty to come to see you this time. I am an uninvited guest. Please forgive me for being an uninvited guest!"
