The Fourth-Handed Emperor, I feel pitiful just thinking about it... Can this really still be used?
Do you want Bai Tu to take the lead and kneel down to restore the prestige of the Han Dynasty?
Of course it’s impossible!
Under Lu Su's persuasion, the staff quickly reached a consensus.
Just because they decided not to interfere with Xu Du's matter, it doesn't mean that today's overtime work is over. Even... for a long time in the future, they will not even think about taking a bath. They can just find time to wash themselves in the evening!
Once Xu You changes, the strategic layout of the General Mansion must also respond. Just in the past two days, battle reports from Jingzhou have also come in one after another.
From the Jiangxia battlefield, Sun Ce beheaded Liu Qi and quickly wiped out the Jingzhou Navy in Jiangxia County. Interactions began to occur in various places. In addition, strategic reversals occurred on both the north and south fronts!
Zhao Yun, Zhang Xiu and Sun Ce met up and marched from the north along the west side of Yunmengze and south towards Jiangling.
After Liu Pan withdrew to Jiangling and pulled the defense line to Nanjun, Chen Gong and Zhang Liao also sharpened their swords and prepared to cross the Yangtze River and attack Jiangling from the south!
However, there was some "small situation" on the road - in Changsha County, signs of activities of the long-lost snake cultivator were discovered.
Although the opponent tried their best to burrow into the forest all the way, Gao Shun's trapped camp was not a vegetarian. They tracked all the way in the dense forest and cooperated with the support of the army outside. The snake repairing department was like wild rabbits burrowing around, and in the end they were still trapped in Ba, Changsha County.
Qiu area, forcing the opponent into a back alley!
Wang Kong's "big conspiracy" was also revealed, and it was so "big" that Chen Gong was speechless for a moment...
At the beginning, Chen Gong forced the opponent to die in Baqiu. When there was no way to escape, Wangkong looked complacent, with the words "I will kill you all later" written on his face.
, began to perform sacrifices in Baqiu.
Baqiu is also known as Baling in later generations, but there is no Yueyang Tower yet, and there is no White Rabbit Effect in history. The most recent big event here should be Zhou Yu's death here - whether he was angry to death or not, in short
This was the "border" between Liu Bei and Sun Quan during their initial conflict.
The reason why it is called "Baqiu" is because according to legend, this place was transformed into the bones of Ba Snake after his death. Ba Snake... is also known as "Snake Xiu"!
Legend has it that during the reign of Emperor Yao, there were ten days in the sky, and there were six strange beasts that caused harm to the world. The people were miserable. Dayi shot nine days and killed the strange beasts. Among them, the Ba Snake was killed in Baqiu.
Of course, legends are legends. According to Bai Tu's understanding, it was actually a conflict between the Dongyi group and the Miao group in ancient times.
A tribe named Dayi, the leader of the Dongyi tribe, very bravely defeated six Miao tribes, one of which had the Ba snake as a totem. The place where they finally defeated the opponent was probably in Baqiu...
Indeed, the image of "Ba Snake" in the legends of Huainan, the hometown of Dongyi, has always been an evil beast that devours people. However, in the legends of Jingchu, most people just describe it as being very big, without any evil deeds.
The Xiu Snake Tribe is likely to have some inheritance from this ancient tribe, so the clan leader has the surname "Wang" instead of directly taking Xiu Snake as his surname!
Wangkong also truly believes that there is "Ba She Ji" in Ba Qiu. As long as Ba She Ji is awakened, he can guide his tribe to become extremely powerful and even replace the Han Dynasty...
This idea... is indeed "amazing".
Facts have proved that Wangkong's claim to be a descendant of the Wang family who was destroyed by Yi was indeed not without purpose, and he actually awakened a strange concubine wearing a snake head ornament and a leather coat!
However... what happened after that was completely out of imagination.
What will happen to Basheji even if she recovers? She was just a tribal girl more than two thousand years ago...
Although the Ba She tribe was defeated in the war, maybe the blame was not on Ba She Ji. It was not that Ba She Ji was not "advanced" enough, but... to bring out the "losers" of more than two thousand years, is it necessary to replace the big Han?
Wang Kong’s thoughts are somewhat incomprehensible to Chen Gong!
When he prayed to Ba Sheji to let her defeat the Han army in front of her and then lead her people to glory, Ba Sheji showed an even more confused look than Jinling Ji before.
Well, if Ba Sheji could defeat the current army of the General's Mansion, she could have defeated Dayi's tribe more than two thousand years ago, and could she still be here waiting to be awakened by you?
Cheng Ji has also experienced many innovations, such as King Zhao Wuling seducing... Well, it was the introduction of Shaman Ji, and she developed step by step to have the advantage she has today. You are an antique from two thousand years ago, why are you so confident?
Now...the prisoners of the Snake Repair Department, as well as the awakened Ba Sheji, are all on their way back to Aurous Hill.
Although it was a complete farce for the Snake Repairing Tribe, Shanyue was betrayed, and the tribe migrated to the Jiaoguang area. The warriors traveled through mountains and rivers, and cooperated with Mohuken to get the opportunity to go north... The Ba Sheji who was finally awakened was of no use.
None?
But for the General's Mansion, it can be regarded as a consolation prize - Ba Sheji, as a tribal girl who has not "evolved" more than 2,000 years ago, how can she be useless? At least... she has a considerable archaeological record.
value!
After Chen Gong solved the problem of the Snake Repair Department, he also continued to go north, preparing to participate in the siege of Jiangling.
Originally, Bai Tu wanted to besiege Jiangling without attacking, keep up the pressure, and wait to see Liu Biao's condition before making any plans.
But now...now that he knows that things may change in Xu Du, Bai Tu can no longer place all his hopes on Mrs. Cai and Liu Cong.
After deciding not to participate in the Xudu incident, Lu Su and others also agreed that the offensive against Jiangling should be stepped up. Lu Su even suggested that Baitu personally take command of the front line!
Although Lu Bu felt that this was not necessary, Lu Su's reasons really moved Bai Tu.
The army currently besieging Jiangling is, after all, a three-pronged army. Although they are all colleagues in the General's Office, Zhang Xiu's Nanyang Army and Sun Ce's Jiangdong Army were all recruited by themselves. The armies led by Chen Gong and Zhang Liao,
It was basically the former Bingzhou Army, and the generals were not familiar with each other before.
No matter who is appointed as the coach at this time, he may not be able to convince the public.
Even if they don't hold each other back like the coalition forces, it is difficult to guarantee that orders and prohibitions will be enforced.
The only "general" who can unite all armies undisputedly is Bai Tu himself, the "General of the Han Dynasty" in the General's Office. Even if Lu Bu is in command, he is in trouble!
To put it bluntly, after Bai Tu went there, he didn't really need to do anything. As long as he was "provided" there, there was no need to worry about internal discord.
At the same time, there is another reason that does not need to be announced aloud - doesn't Bai Tu need to show his face in front of the frontline soldiers?
Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei...these "serious" princes are often involved in the front line. Especially in large-scale battles, the leader must take command by himself. It is precisely for these two reasons!
As for Liu Biao, Liu Zhang, etc., they are not considered "serious" princes...
Lu Bu was more depressed. He didn't have to go, but Bai Tu had to go to the front line. The wedding would probably be postponed for a few more months.
Fortunately, as the privy envoy, Lu Bu will definitely accompany him. At this time, Lu Bu has also made up his mind to fight quickly in Jiangling!
Once Xu You changed and the Emperor of Han was "invited" to leave by Yuan Shao or Liu Bei, he would most likely issue an order immediately to mediate the Jing-Yang dispute, the latter of which was even more troublesome.
The Emperor of Han was obtained by Yuan Shao, and he was only the fourth-hand Emperor. However, if Liu Bei obtained the Emperor of Han, as a certified clan relative, he would really be willing to assist Liu Xie, which would be equivalent to returning the Emperor of Han to the factory and renovating it, even if it is not really brand new.
, it can also greatly increase the prestige of the imperial court. Even if Bai Tu will not really stop because of mediation, it will ultimately be more restrictive...
