In the city of Hekadonbiru, Han flags floated on the white walls.

The heavy snow eased a little, and Gongsun Zhi and his party came out of the palace. At this time, the sky was dark, and the cold air filled with the air became even more bizarre. Scattered snowflakes pounced on their faces as the horses marched. A thin layer of frost was hung between their cloaks and beards, and there was a hint of joy between their square eyebrows.

"I can finally breathe a little relieved. It's been a New Year." Gongsun Zhi let out a breath of white breath.

Dian Wei wrapped the double halberds and put them behind his back: "Lord, why are those people doing so much verbal uselessly? I want me to say that they will just flatten us directly, so that they will suddenly stab us in the back in the future, and that is, it is really hard to get home."

The previous rhetoric in the palace still moved them. The world was bustling and bustling for profit. It was possible to place it in any place in the world, and any country would be able to do so. Gongsun Zhi looked at the streets in the snowy scenery ahead and said, "... The Roman emperor Severu, who quelled civil strife two years ago, directly defeated the Sakura people and won the Euphrates River Basin and the western capital of this country. The importance of this is the same as that of Chang'an of the Han Dynasty. The Qin Dynasty will always be next to him. Our Western Expedition Army cannot be here for a long time. With such a good opportunity, if you were the emperor, how would the noble choose?"

The giant man rubbed the tiger's beard, thought for a while before nodding. Li Ke, who was not far away, rode a horse and poked his waist with his elbow: "...... Be safe and be a good guard with me."

"It's the New Year almost, let's say something nice."

“…Is it counting to get promoted or make money?”

With the sound of the two of them quarreling, they left the city gate and headed southeast. There was a manor outside, which was only thirty miles away from the military camp. It was difficult to see pedestrians on the road. Occasionally, they were also scouts of the Western Expedition Army. The rafts patrolled nearby and set up secret posts. The open posts were set up with ten miles around this manor. This was originally a large manor of several nobles in Hekadonbiru City. Before the siege, they had moved their family into the city, and now they were the temporary residence of the generals of the Western Expedition Army.

In the opposite direction of the horse team, three miles north of Hekadunbiru, the dim light was the squeaking sound of stepping on the snow, a team of tiny figures were walking through the vast white, a white little beast ran in front of the team, occasionally rolling on the snow, happily digging up a tuft of snowflakes towards the woman in the lead.

The woman stretched out her long legs and gently kicked the little white wolf with her toes. She encountered some accident on her way here. The Expeditionary Force attacked the distant city of Fandou. I don’t know whether it was the Xianbei cavalry or the Wuhuan cavalry scout who were sweeping the wasteland, and had to let go of her feet to avoid being shot and killed as an Anxi. After waiting for several days, she heard that Anxi had changed the emperor and reached a reconciliation with the Western Expeditionary Force of the Han Dynasty, and then continued to move south.

At this time, a series of horse hooves sounded from afar. The team looked over. Hundreds of cavalry were already surrounded. The leading knight carried a wide and long Han sword, holding a spear in his hand, and looked at them from a high place: "The martial law in Fandou City is now in martial law, and no one is allowed to enter and exit for the time being..." Speaking of this, Su Ren, who was already the deputy general of the Black Mountain Cavalry, waved to his subordinates: "... Forget it, I guess these resting people don't understand either, just drive them away."

At this moment, a subordinate urged his horse to approach and whispered: "General, look at the two wolves behind those people, one big and one small..."

"Um?"

The sky was dark and the vision was not as clear as it was during the day. Su Ren frowned and squinted his eyes. The woman in the lead came towards him and put down the cloth robe and bags on her cover.

Su Ren only glanced at it, then quickly turned over and dismounted, his face full of shock: "Second Madam! Why did you get here..."

"Borrow a few fast horses and send me to find your general..."

“…Ren arranged for his wife to come over immediately.”

Soon after, the snowflakes that had been resting began to float again, and night fell.

………

The sob sound of wind and snow blew across the roofs of the eaves and roofs, and bright lights shone out from the window frames. The towering stone statues and flowerbeds were all pale. Gongsun Zhi, who walked into the aristocratic courtyard, and his group got off the horse in front of the door, threw the reins to the soldiers, and strode into the open door, and the noisy and lively sound buzzed into his ears.

In the hall ahead, there were already some generals in the army, including the leaders of the caravans of various families, Yan Rou, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong, Xiahou Yuan, Zhang Fei, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, Pan Feng, Guo Si, Hua Xiong, etc. A female general was petite in a crowd of tall and large people. Even if she was cushioning, she could only see a little bun. On the other side were representatives of the Lu family in Jiangdong, the Zhen family in Hebei, the Zhong family in Sizhou, and the Chen Liuwei family. At this time, when she saw Gongsun Zhi walking in, she stopped talking and turned around and bowed.

The figure with a large cloak with built-in armor walked through the middle, sat down on a large chair with a velvet cushion in front, raised his hand and pressed it, and then sat down. Gongsun Zhi then glanced at everyone in the hall and smiled: "Who else hasn't come?"

"General Zhao did not come, so he sent Sima Xiahoulan over." Hua Xiong said in the front position on the right, grinning and pointing at Xiahoulan, who only had a face in the crowd. The latter hurriedly pushed forward and bowed: "The last general has met his lord, my brother is..."

Gongsun Zhi waved his hand indifferently, and while getting up, letting Li Ke take off the cloak, he smiled and said, "I don't know what Zilong's personality is. He doesn't like such excitement."

Then, he sat down again and talked about the main business.

"The emperor of Anli, the nobles agreed to the alliance, and the army of Dayuan will be drawn out to gather here, leaving only the news from the Kushan side... However, there should be no difficulties. The Kushan has become increasingly weak in control of Central Asia over the years, which is a good opportunity for them to retake. In addition, looting Daqin together also has a great temptation for them. Even if they retreat, Anli will still be in front of them. In this way, 50,000 or 60,000 troops can be drawn between the Three Kingdoms."

"So many?" Zhang Fei suddenly opened his voice and shouted: "...Including the Xianbei, Xiongnu and Wuhuan tribes, there are about 100,000 Gentile soldiers. Then, I, Lao Zhang, can't get a war? No! No! Let them send some people."

Everyone in the hall suddenly laughed, and Zhou Yu, who was not far away, also laughed. He was dressed in a scholarly manner and looked upright. He bowed to the black man with a leopard head and eyes: "General Zhang is brave. He can't kill the Qin people alone. You might as well let those Gentiles go up and grind each other."

"Don't think I, Lao Zhang, can't hear it. I'm brave but not resourceful. Let me tell you, Lao Zhang also studied in the past! It's not about luck to get to this day." After saying that, a big and round figure on the table next to the table shook. When I raised my head, countless eyes looked over. Pan Feng stared at them with a serious expression: "Look at what I do, this is a blessing, not luck, this is what my mother said..."

Everyone laughed again. After a moment, Gongsun Zhi above raised his hand, his voice gradually closed, and his lips slightly opened under his thick beard: "Although it is the end of the year today, the soldiers below must have all the clothes to keep warm, wine, and cooked meat. In addition, beware of it, you must not relax."

"Yes!" The generals bowed in unison.

Gongsun Zhi nodded: "A group of Persian dancers were collected to cheer him up. Whoever fell in love with him? He carried him back to warm the bed." After that, he took the people to the banquet, ticked singing and dancing, and said, "I have some things to deal with, and the generals will enjoy it themselves." He then stood up and took Dian Wei and Li Ke to the side courtyard.

A girl named Lu Lingqi bulged her cheeks and muttered: "How can the governor make such a arrangement!" She shook her hair and glared at her father beside her: "No woman is allowed to take to the room, otherwise Lingqi will go back and tell her mother."

"Haha! Gentile women are not favored by their father."

Lu Bu rubbed his daughter's head, and as soon as he finished speaking, someone took him to drink.

Compared with the bustling noise in the hall, the wind and snow blew across the eaves, the corridors, and the fire swayed. Gongsun Zhi pushed open a door, and someone was sitting at the long table eating quietly. During the movements, the sound of jingling iron chains came.

The door closed with a loud bang, and Gongsun Zhi sat down opposite the man.

"Wenhe, can you get used to extraterritorial food?"
