Chapter 120 Finale End
The Book of the Later Han Dynasty records that in the fifth year of Zhangwu, the coastal states and counties were attacked by thieves of unknown origin. Emperor Shi Zhaolie and Prime Minister Zhuge Kongming asked all the ministers, and they did not know the origin of the thieves. Later prince Liu Fengjin said: Zhao Botao, the Marquis of Chai Sang, has heard of strong ambitions and has a wide range of knowledge, so he can ask his people. Therefore, Zhao Feng was summoned to the court for consultation, and he knew that the thief came from Dongying Island.
In the summer of the sixth year of Zhang Wu, all the sea ships were built. Liu Bei took the old cavalry general Zhao Feng as the commander, Zhendong general Gan Ning as the deputy commander, and the prince Liu Feng as the supervisor, and raised 100,000 water troops to conquer Dongying. The army was bumpy on the sea, and then they killed Fusang. Under Zhao Feng's instructions, 100,000 troops copied what they had done in Jiaozhou that year, killed all the adult men in the Fusang Islands, and enslaved the underage men and took them back to the Han Dynasty. For a while, the four islands of Fusang became a dead island without men. Decades later, the Fusang clan was completely destroyed.
The army returned to the land of Sanhan. At this time, Sanhan had already been paculated by Ma Dai, and Ma Dai himself was also stationed in Liaodong and Sanhan. Unexpectedly, when Ma Dai took over the army, Goguryeo connected with Fuyu to invade the army and robbed food and fodder. Ma Dai was furious and led the army to pacbine the two countries. He killed more than 300,000 people in Goguryeo.
In the winter of the sixth year of Zhangwu, Huo Jun, the governor of Yizhou, died of illness. Liu Bei asked his ministers who could be the governor of Yizhou. Everyone said that Zhao Feng, the Marquis of Chai Sang, had experienced the battlefield for a long time, was familiar with civil affairs, and shocked the foreign country, and could be the governor of Yizhou. Liu Bei then ordered Zhao Feng to be the Duke of Yue and the governor of Yizhou to guard the island. Zhao Feng and his family led more than 5,000 people from the old department to the island. Since then, he has devoted himself to the development of Yizhou and has easily returned to the mainland.
In the tenth year of Zhangwu, Liu Bei, the emperor of Zhaolie, abdicated and was said to be located in Prince Liu Feng. He lived in the ancient city of Runan with Guan Yu, the king of Xiangyang, and Zhang Fei, the king of Fufeng. After Liu Feng ascended the throne, he changed his name to Jianxing, which was the first year of Jianxing. At that time, the Yi of the Western Regions took advantage of the fact that the state was unstable at the beginning of the new king's succession, so they joined forces from Wusun, Dawan and other countries to attack. Liu Feng took Liwei and sent the cavalry general Lu Xun to lead 300,000 troops to fight against the allied forces. Lu Xun's soldiers went out of the Western Regions, and his clever plan was to defeat the allied forces of the Western Regions and beheaded the heads of Prince Wusun and Dawan. However, to everyone's surprise, the biggest hero in this battle was not Guan Xing and other famous generals, but the relatively unknown general Deng Ai. This man personally beheaded the head of the two kings, and the countries in the Western Regions were invincible for a while. Liu Feng was overjoyed and appointed Deng Ai as the general of the Western Expedition and the Western Region of Yongzhen in the imperial court.
After six years of Jianxing, Emperor Liu Bei was critically ill. According to the rumors of the chamberlain, one night before Liu Beilin's death, several people went to the bedroom to visit him, including Zhao Feng, the governor of Yizhou, who made a special trip back from Yizhou. In the early morning of the next day, Liu Bei passed away.
Time flies, and another ten years have passed. At this time, it is the 16th year of Jianxing, 236 A.D. On this day, a special guest came to the tomb of Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty outside Luoyang City.
"Lao Liu, I'm coming to see you again!" Touching the tombstone in front of him, Zhao Feng, who was almost old, also sighed. I'm really not young. It's so tiring to go back to the mainland by boat from Taiwan. I've never done it before. Behind him was his grandson. The child didn't know why his grandfather brought him here. He just looked at this murderous cemetery, which had always been lively, and he didn't dare to jump again.
"Liu Feng is a good emperor, he does things decently, and everything in the big man is fine. A Dou is also good. I don't plan to leave when I come back this year. Let him go to Yizhou to continue to work. Looking back on the life of myself and Liu Bei, although they have also had suspicion and precautions, they are more harmonious than estrangement after all. It's okay for the king and minister to get along with each other.
"Sometimes I also remember that when we were in the plains, we were really happy and carefree at that time. In a blink of an eye, you have been gone for ten years, and Mr. Guan has also been gone for six years. I went to see Brother Fei yesterday. He has been in poor health since autumn this year. I guess even if I can finish this winter, I will see you soon.
"Last year, Wenyuan and Yuanzhi left, and Zilong also left at the beginning of spring this year. There are not many old brothers!" Zhao Feng seemed to be talking to Liu Bei, and seemed to be talking to himself again.
"Master Guan, I'm sorry. Although my son was young, he still abducted your daughter Yinping. I couldn't come back for a wedding drink when I was on the island. Today, I brought their son to you. But don't be angry. Not only your daughter, but also Feige and A Liang's daughter. Except for Xing Cai and A Dou who went to Yizhou, he also asked him to do everything. Since he graduated from Xuzhou College, this boy has actually joined the army. Now Liangzhou and Deng Ai are in charge of the army together. He is very similar to me and is very good to your daughter. You can rest assured.
Zhao Feng chattered about how long he had muttered until his grandson reminded himself loudly: "Grandpa, how many people are over there!"
"Rejuvenate the country, frankly?" Zhao Feng looked back and saw that it was Guan Ping and Guan Xing brothers. After all, Guan Xing is still very young, but there are some crow's feet in the corners of his eyes; Guan Ping is not very young, but because of practicing martial arts all year round, his body is still relatively good, and he still walks so calmly.
"See you, General!" When Guan Ping saw Zhao Feng, he was still ready to salute meticulously, but was supported by the latter. Frankly, you and I are all over half a hundred years old. How can you talk about so many false gifts!" Zhao Feng frowned slightly. If Guan Ping is good at everything else, he is too reserved. The older he is, the more polite he is.
"My father-in-law, it's the right time for you to come back this time. There happens to be a war!" Guan Xing was not so formal, but smiled. The three of them laughed for a while, and then Zhao Feng asked, "Xingguo, how about it? There will be another war this time. Are you afraid?"
"Of course, I'm not afraid. Those barbarians are not my opponents!" Guan Xing said with a smile. While talking, Zhang Bao and others also came. Today is Guan Yu's taboo. A group of nephews in their later life came to worship, and Zhao Feng also happened to meet.
In the spring of the 16th year of Jianxing, Liu Feng, Emperor of the Han Dynasty, took Deng Ai, the general of the Western Expedition, as his marshal, and commanded 200,000 troops to the Western Regions to fight against the army of the Roman Empire. Deng Ai won a series of victories, but the Roman emperor [***] had too many people, and for a while, it formed a stalemate in the land of Central Asia.
In the autumn of this year, Zhang Fei, Zhao Feng, Wei Yan, Pang De, Ma Dai and other ten imperial generals petitioned to lead the army to the Western Regions. According to his words, the emperor took Zhang Fei as his commander and commanded 200,000 troops to conquer the Western Regions again. After a series of hard battles, they finally broke the Roman coalition and killed hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war. It was just that on the way to the class in the spring of the following year, the general Zhang Fei died of illness and was in the army. The emperor mourned when he heard the news. In this battle, the person who made the most contributions was Zhao Zheng, the son of Zhao Feng, the former cavalry general, and Zhao Zheng, the general of Zhenwei. He personally led the rattan armor soldiers to defeat the Roman convoy, which laid the foundation for the overall victory of the battle. The emperor discussed his achievements, worshipped him as the general of Zhenxi, and received the Western Regions with Deng Ai. After this battle, the Western Roman Empire was depressed, and six years later, it was destroyed by Deng Ai and Zhao Zheng.
The following year, the emperor wanted to imitate the story of the high ancestor and draw a picture of the founding generals for the Lingyan Pavilion. Although many people were no longer there, the descendants competed for the ranking and came to the table one after another. The emperor was so annoyed that he asked the old prime minister Zhuge Liang and said, "General Zhao's credit is the first in the founding of the country!" Emperor Ran said, act according to this, so there are no opponents!
