The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo

"..."

"This is the entire story of the Battle of Shiting."

Zhu Ran, who had fled back to Ruxukou, combined the information from the soldiers and sorted out the whole story.

"Zhu Huan is not a rebel."

"The real traitor is Han Zong!!"

When Zhu Ran said these words, his Adam's apple shook up and down, as if he was trying to swallow his blood, tears, and bones.

"Submit the information to Lord Wu, and the rest of you will defend Ruxukou with me!"

There was a ruthlessness in Zhu Ran's eyes that he had never seen before.

"The survival of Jiangdong depends on us!"

……

The result of the Battle of Shiting was reported back to Jiangdong.

After hearing this, Sun Quan and Gu Yong were both shocked!

"Han Zong, Zhu Huan, this..."

And when Gu Yong looked at Sun Quan, his eyes were filled with complete anger!
same……

Sun Quan's look towards Gu Yong was also unnatural.

Gu Yong was blaming Sun Quan for choosing someone like Han Zong for his own power!

Sun Quan blamed Zhu Huan for leaving his post without permission and going from Chaisang to Shiting, which led to his being arrested by the emperor...

"Han Zong! No! It's Li Ru!"

Gu Yong set up his identity as a celebrity and went directly to Han Zong's residence to search.

In that secret room, Gu Yong indeed found another secret room!
It's a pity that this place is deserted...

"At that time, I was only one step away from Li Ru!"

Gu Yong felt regretful and a little angry.

He seemed to see Li Ru looking at him with a smile behind the wall, his eyes full of sarcasm!

"Li Ru...he can't get far! Kill him!"

Just as Gu Yong issued the order, Sun Quan, who arrived shortly afterwards, grabbed Gu Yong's sleeve.

"Yuan Tan, this is not the most important thing right now!"

"What else is important? If you hadn't cared about your reputation and didn't want to kill Li Ru, this huge disaster wouldn't have happened!"

Under normal circumstances, Gu Yong would never say something that would hurt Sun Quan's reputation.

But now, Gu Yong's years of forbearance finally broke out, and he didn't care at all about what would happen.

When Sun Quan heard Gu Yong scolding and accusing him in public, his face turned purple and blue, the same color as his unusual beard.

But Sun Quan is Sun Quan after all.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Sun Quan actually bowed to Gu Yong and said:

"What happened with Li Ru and Han Zong was indeed my fault."

"But Yuan Tan, Jiangdong is facing a life-and-death situation right now, so where is the time to look for Li Ru?"

"Just as Yuan Tan said before, Li Ru is like a poisonous snake, he will keep his mouth shut."

"But after a poisonous snake bites a person, it will not reveal its body again, but wait for the person to die from the poison."

"Now that Jiang Dong has been bitten, he has no time to worry about the venomous snake. Instead, he has to protect himself first, isn't that right?"

"..."

Gu Yong looked at Sun Quan's bent back and finally sighed to the sky.

"Mr. Wu is right. I lost my temper."

"The most urgent task is to deal with the imperial court!"

Seeing Gu Yong's renewed fighting spirit, Sun Quan nodded continuously.

"Should we send someone to Chaisang as soon as possible?"

"No need. Chaisang must have been conquered by Guan Yu, Gan Ning and others by now."

When Gu Yong learned that Zhu Huan's entire army was wiped out and that he committed suicide at Shiting, he realized that there was absolutely no need to preserve Chaisang.

"Fortunately, Zhu Ran was able to withdraw and defend Ruxukou."

"What Marquis Wu has to do now is to rush to Moling immediately, use the Zhongshan Mountain and Qinhuai River, and rely on the navy to connect to Ruxukou, and intercept the imperial court at this last line of defense!"

"The only things Jiangdong can rely on now are the navy and the gunpowder that Ruxu mentioned!!"

Zhongshan is like a coiled dragon, and Shitou is like a crouching tiger!
Moling is Jiangdong’s last line of defense!
"Okay, I got it." "Wait!"

Gu Yong grabbed Sun Quan.

At this point, there is nothing to hide.

"We must leave a way out."

"Otherwise, if Moling is lost, we will really die without a burial place!"

……

Just as Gu Yong expected.

After Zhu Huan withdrew from Chaisang, the Jingzhou Army immediately led a large force to capture this place and went along the Yangtze River to Wankou.

The emperor is here.

The mighty Yangtze River flows through this place.

This place is already considered the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, where the water flows slowly and the river surface is wide.

If we hadn't been able to see the mountains on the opposite side, we would have thought we had arrived at the mouth of the sea.

Liu Xie stood at the dock, watching the surging waves, the sparkling lights, and the still shadows.

"His Majesty."

"Ah."

Liu Xie responded and turned around to see Guan Yu and others.

"Thank you for your hard work, Yunchang."

"I am terrified."

Liu Xie looked at Gan Ning, Guan Ping, Kou Feng and others again.

"Although this battle was all thanks to Li Wenyou, it's a good thing that we were able to capture Chaisang."

Especially Kou Feng...

Liu Xie stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "I have heard about your battle in Jingzhou. You did a good job."

Kou Feng's face flushed, obviously he didn't expect the emperor to praise him in person.

"In the future, the Han Dynasty will need young people like you, not some stubborn people who stick to the old ways."

"The future of the Han Dynasty will be very exciting, but also very dangerous. People like you are just like Cao Cao and Sun Ce, and your future is limitless."

"..."

Kou Feng was originally quite happy, but when he heard the emperor compare him to Cao Cao and Sun Ce, he didn't know whether he should be happy or scared...

"Yun Chang, you'd better take a rest."

"After this battle, I will send you to the Annan Protectorate to attack the Kushan Empire together with my uncle."

"Hey...ah?"

Guan Yu hasn't reacted yet.

Kushan?

Isn’t this a bit far away from the war in Jiangdong?
Liu Xie pointed at the rolling Yangtze River.

"If you only think about the present, you will inevitably be anxious about the passing of time."

"But if you look far away, you will know that everything in the world is everlasting!"

"I always thought that after pacifying Jiangdong, it would be the last battle, so I had more concerns."

"But now that I think about it, the world is so big, and there are still many things to do. How can I focus all my attention on Jiangdong?"

It seems like an illusion...

Everyone looked at the emperor's back and felt that he was shining at this moment, and was full of vigor and vitality again!
The emperor, who served as the flag, hesitated for a while, and finally started to move forward again!
Also.

Jiangdong... shouldn't have made the emperor so anxious, nor should it have made the emperor feel like he was facing a formidable enemy!

The Yangtze River flows on like a river with no end in sight. How can it stop because of a stone?
"The rolling waters of the Yangtze River pass eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Right and wrong, success or failure, are all gone. The green mountains are still there, and the sunsets are red several times."

"White-haired fishermen and woodcutters on the river bank are used to looking at the autumn moon and the spring breeze. We are happy to meet each other over a pot of wine. Many things in ancient and modern times are all talked about with laughter."

As the emperor leisurely chanted this poem by the river, the final offensive of the Han Dynasty - arrived!
"Xingba, Kongming."

"Bofu and Gongjin will sail their warships into the Yangtze River tomorrow."

"Han Zong has accurate information that Jiangdong's gunpowder is all at Ruxukou."

"This time you will teach them how to fight a water battle!"

"Here!" (End of chapter)
