Just when the coalition of princes completely collapsed and disintegrated, Xiao Lan's Taiping Army had completely stabilized the victory. Tao Qian had to escape all the way. When he reached the vicinity of Sishui Pass, the remaining troops were less than 5,000. Xu Chu and Zhou Cang led the army to chase him, but met the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang who returned from Luoyang. They saved Tao Qian's life and retreated to Sishui Pass. Xu Chu and Zhou Cang had 30,000 troops stationed at the gate, waiting for instructions. [+New^^+

When Xiao Lan got the frontline battle report, he was training a new powerful general: Dian Wei!

Dian Wei: Chen Liuji is a man of us. He is burly, has extraordinary strength, has great ambitions and a hero. At that time, his fellow villager Liu and Li Yong from Suiyang were enemies. Dian Wei avenged the Liu family, intercepted and killed Li Yong, and killed Li Yong's wife. Although there were hundreds of people chasing him from behind, no one dared to approach him.

During the Chuping period, Dong Zhuo of Liangzhou caused trouble to the government and the country. Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu, and Cao Cao, formed an anti-Dong alliance army. Dian Wei was appointed as a soldier and belonged to Sima Zhao Chong. The Yamen flag in the army was long and large, and people could not lift it up. Dian Wei actually held it up with one hand, letting the strong wind raged, and the flagpole remained unmoved.

During the Xingping period, Zhang Miao broke up with Cao Cao and waited for an opportunity to attack Cao Cao. Dian Wei turned to Cao Cao and was affiliated with Xiahou Dun. He followed Xiahou Dun to fight everywhere. He made great contributions to killing the enemy several times and was appointed as Sima. The twelve small halberds he carried with him were penetrated by a hundred steps, and they were not in vain. The two iron halberds weighing 800 jin were used as if nothing had happened.

When he served as Cao Cao's personal guard, he never left his steps from morning to night. Even if he was sleepy at night, he would mostly rest outside Cao Cao's tent and rarely return to his home. Such loyal ministers are rare in ancient and modern times.

Cao Cao's picking up girls in Wancheng was the last battle in Dian Wei's life and the most glorious battle. He fought fiercely with bare hands and killed countless Zhang Xiu's troops. After a long time after his death, no one dared to take a step forward and strive to ensure that Cao Cao escaped unstoppable.

He had extraordinary martial arts and extraordinary loyalty and courage. How could Xiao Lan not like such a person? This was one of his great gains in defeating the six major coalition forces of the princes, and it was also his coincidence. At this time, Dian Wei did not follow Cao Cao, but was a soldier under Zhang Miao's account. When Zhang Miao was defeated, most of the army was captured by the Taiping Army, and Dian Wei was also among them. He was reported because of his amazing appetite and great strength. He was finally known to Xiao Lan and promoted to his personal guard.

"The old thief Tao Qian is really lucky. He was saved by the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang." Xiao Lan couldn't help but mutter to him. These guys are really destined to be together. In history, Tao Qian gave up Xuzhou to Liu Bei's three brothers. Unexpectedly, Xuzhou has been beaten down by himself, and he even asked Tao Qian and Liu Bei's three brothers to mingle with each other. This really made Xiao Lan thunder a lot.

When Dian Wei heard this, he opened his eyes and said, "Lord, these three brothers are of extraordinary strength. I once saw them fighting against Lu Bu at Hulao Pass. Liu Bei won't say anything. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are all real top generals."

"Oh?" Xiao Lan asked indefyingly when he heard this, "Then, if evil comes to face them, I wonder how likely it is to win?"

Dian Wei said: "Four and six, four points immediately. Six points on the ground!"

Although it was expected, Xiao Lan was still a little disappointed and listened to storytelling. It was said that one, two, two, three, Dian Wei. It seems that there is still some difference between them. Although Dian Wei is brave, his courage lies in the battle on the ground. When fighting immediately, he will inevitably be relatively weaker.

However, what he is doing now is a rebellion, and it is already a good luck to be able to receive such a top-level general. If he still wants to force it, he will be really greedy.

"Report! General Huang Zhong defeated Huang Zu in Changsha yesterday. Wen Pin and Wen Pin were captured. Huang Zu led hundreds of remaining soldiers to flee."

"Report! General Wei Yan has captured the six counties of Jiangdong three days ago, and the Taiping Army is all occupied by Yangzhou. However, people from Shanyue have launched an incident to resist the Taiping Army, so he has sent a large army to conquer."

"Report, Luoyang urgently reported! General, two days ago, Cao Cao chased Dong Zhuo alone and returned from defeat. Due to the fact that the imperial seal was passed, Sun Jian led his troops out of Luoyang, and the allied forces of the princes were dispersed."

"Huh?" Listening to the urgent military reports that were conveyed one after another, Xiao Lan couldn't help but ponder: "The Eighteen-Road Princes Alliance, Sun Jian left, I have destroyed the five routes, Cao Cao was defeated by Dong Zhuo, and most of the remaining soldiers were damaged. This is a good opportunity to deal with them. I will pass on the orders of generals!"

"When Lu Su, Liao Hua, Ling Cao, and Mi Fang were in charge of Yangzhou affairs and discussed the advance of Jiaozhou. Wei Yan led 100,000 troops, and Chen Deng did not have military service, so he was transferred to Jingzhou."

"I am the general order, and I will hold Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, Yu Jin, Zang Ba gathered 150,000 Yanzhou army, Jiang Gan as the military advisor, Xu Sheng, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Xu He, and Geng Ling gathered 150,000 Qingzhou army, and Zhuge Jin as the military advisor, and marched into Jizhou in two ways!"

"I will be ordered to mobilize a large army of 100,000 in Yuzhou. Dian Wei will be the general of the personal guard. I will soon follow my commander's troops to send to Sishui Pass!"

A series of advance orders were issued, and Xiao Lan kept thinking in his heart that he should give them a head-on strike when the coalition of princes was the weakest, so that they would completely lose the opportunity to resist the Taiping Army's edge.

Speaking of which, it was thanks to Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu. If they had not been against the coalition of the Eighteen Routes of Princes head-on, causing them to lose their troops and lose their generals, and the rear was empty. Even if Xiao Lan had the help of a cheater, it would have been impossible for him to expand the Taiping Army to its current momentum in a short period of time.

"Master, someone asks for a visit."

"Who?" It was already evening. Xiao Lan had just arranged the soldiers. Suddenly, he heard someone asking for a meeting. He was stunned. If his subordinates were the ones, there would be no need for such trouble. Everyone knew that although Xiao Lan of the Taiping Army treated the enemy fiercely, he had always been very approachable to his soldiers and the people.

The messenger replied: "Yingchuan Academy, Guo Jia."

"Oh? Is it him? Come on, forget it, let's go by myself." Xiao Lan was overjoyed when he heard Guo Jia's name. He wanted to invite someone to come in, but he felt it was inappropriate, so he quickly tidied up his clothes and greeted him in person.

Since he defeated the five princes and took time to examine the students in the academy, many of the gentry students were implicated for family crimes. According to the Taiping Constitution, they were punished by various punishments. Therefore, the remaining gentry students were unwilling to join the Taiping Army.

In contrast, many poor students decided to join the Taiping Army. Now they have been sent by Xiao Lan to various places to serve as officials. However, famous people in the academy such as Xun Yu, Xun You, Xi Zhong, Guo Jia, etc. have never expressed their opinions, which disappointed Xiao Lan and had to order people to secretly control their whereabouts.

It is because these people are good at managing internal affairs, and they are all well-versed in tactics and strategies:

Xun Yu used his troops to use a "right"! Using the law of the king's way, he used the army of the king's way to attack the law and attack the unjust ministers. He observed that his troops were used, and there were traces to follow, but he had no choice but to break the offensive that was difficult to penetrate.

Guo Jia used a military force to use a "strange!" His military method was like a horse running in the sky and an antelope hung its horns. There was no sign of attacking him without any preparation, and he would be rescued if he attacked him.

Xi Zhong used military use, so he used a "miracle"! Just like his chess style, he must first hang four corners and not take the Middle Earth. Then each move seems meaningless, but after dozens of steps, he found that all of them were the key. The use of military use was a series of strange moves, some were useless and some were exquisite, which was really a headache.

Xun You seemed to have absorbed everyone's strengths, either right, strange, or strange. He used all kinds of military tactics with ease, but it might not be as superb as the first three, but in the overall situation, it was not weak at all.

Fortunately, Xiao Lan knew their abilities and took precautions. Xi Zhong and Guo Jia were both poor families. Xun Yu and Xun You all had the elders and young people in Yingchuan. Even if they wanted to leave, they could not leave. However, there were no signs of their submission to the Taiping Army during these days. Xiao Lan had almost given up. Unexpectedly, Guo Jia's visit was quite surprised.

"I haven't seen each other for a few days, and the general seems to have improved better than before. It seems that it is not just because he defeated the Allied Forces of the Six Patriarchs, Jingzhou and Yangzhou, and there are also good news coming to pass!" Seeing Xiao Lan, Guo Jia looked as usual, smiled, as if he was good friends, and chatted and laughed freely. He did not have any tension or fear at all about the killing spirit and solemn military appearance in Xiao Lan's army. He revealed many secrets in his words.

Xiao Lan nodded secretly. Guo Jia, with his courage and demeanor alone, was very comparable to others, not to mention that he revealed many military secrets of the Taiping Army in one slightest, and had already revealed his ability, which was indeed extraordinary.

"Ha!" With a chuckle, Xiao Lan said loudly: "The Taiping Army is about to begin. I want my troops to be sent to Sishui Pass. I wonder if Fengxiao is willing to be my military advisor?"

Guo Jia asked back: "Do you have any wine?"

Xiao Lan was slightly stunned and laughed: "Of course there is wine, so you have as much as you want, so you can do it!"

"Great kindness!" Guo Jia immediately leaned over and bowed: "I have met the lord!" (To be continued.)
