Chapter 145,

After discussing the wedding, write a document. Even if it is late at night, Xi Chongjin and Xi Chongchen will leave the city. In Huangzhou, Xi Chonggu would try to be martial law and martial law. The Xi brothers would leave the city. The marriage would be like an arrow in the hope of everyone. Get the imperial edict as soon as possible and everyone would get peace.

Xi Chonggu and Liang Ren did not rest either. They went out with Xi Chongjin and Xi Chongchen. Xi Chongchen went out of the north gate and went to the capital on Shangguan Road. Xi Chonggu wore armor and led the children of the same armor at home to board the horse, surrounded Jin King Liang Ren and went out of the east gate, and headed to Nanxing, east of Zhongcheng Province.

He traveled day and night to send Liang Ren and others to the Nanxing realm. It happened to be late at night. In the darkness without stars or moon, Xi Chonggu's eyebrows and eyes were particularly heavy, like a stable rock standing in the world.

He clasped his fists with his hands: "Your Highness, let it go for now."

"Uncle, there will be another date." Liang Ren's words did not have too much politeness. If the memorial was not sent away, Liang Ren might say more "I'm working, thank you."

At this time, both sides were not talking nonsense, and Ma and Xinjiang parted ways in their respective areas. The city north of Liang Ren was named Yueqing, and the city south of Xi Chonggu went to Nanxing was named Shengzhou. Yueqing, Shengzhou City and nearby cities were all places where the Lu King's army recently attacked.

After the reputation spread, many people were confused and thought that General Xi was only blessed, but some people would remember that Xi Chonggu himself was skillful in tactics, just like sending Liang Ren out of Zhongcheng Province Xi Chonggu was also constantly stopping day and night, and when he was sleepy, he would sleep immediately. Now he rushed to Shengzhou to rescue him, and there was nothing to do without leaving the saddle.

Xi Chonggu, who was about forty, was in his prime. He was young and strong for decades and was not a false statement, and the troops he brought out were also not ambiguous. Chang'an followed him to set the way for them, otherwise the Luka in Nanxing would start the war first.

A few days later, I heard the noise from the direction of Shengzhou. It was still late at night. The first choice for the attacks of King Lu that could not be publicized was late at night. During the day, the woods next to the official road were harassing each other. People could not enter or leave for at least half a month. The grain and daily water and vegetables were stored in the city.

This is the intention of King Lu, to trap the relatively important cities in the sixteen cities in Nanxing, paralyzed the official roads and paralyzed the transactions, and to siege the city and attack the aid until Liang Ren and Nanxing became wasteland and people.

The general Xue Guangwu, who led the team, strictly followed the orders of King Lu, but only failed to reach the point. Two days before the siege, the people of Nanxing could still be seen in the surrounding villages and snatched food from them. Since then, they have never seen any living people. The heavy and unmovable houses are left in the empty houses, and the traces of immature crops can be clearly seen cutting off the fields.

After so long, the siege of the city did not destroy or a small part of the trade in Nanxing, it would be impossible to cause damage that King Liang Ren of Jin was concerned about.

The city walls that were smashed by rolling stones at night in Shengzhou City are often quickly repaired during the day. The soldiers and horses siege are like making a joke, smashing a few pits at night, and it will be fine during the day. They will smash them again the next night.

I also tried the ladder. After a hard battle, some people went up to the city, and then there was no other ladder. All the ladders were pushed down and burned. The heads of soldiers entering the city were thrown out of the city and fell on the ground like rolling balls.

Xue Guangwu and his deputy general named Luo Jiu screamed in anger, but the logistical pressure brought by the long-term siege made them unable to attack with all their strength. They continued to fight and knock, Xue Guangwu and Luo Jiu, who were full of military books, gradually became tired.

When the vibration sound came from the official road, the patrol soldiers sent out every day still reported: "After about two thousand cavalry, the fast horse gallops should be reinforcements."

There was no such thing as two thousand cavalry in the caravan. The excitement ran through Xue Guangwu and Luo Jiu, and waved his hand to summon the soldiers: "The delicious food and drink are coming, let's grab a batch first."

The black cavalry appeared in sight like thunder, and a flag blew the word "Xi". The general in the middle age looked like lightning, and before he could reach his face, his eyes seemed to penetrate the hearts of Xue Guangwu and others.

Xue Guangwu was still stunned. The Xi family in Zhongcheng Province was too famous. Among the military generals across the country, among King Lu's current army, there were people with the surname Xi among Xue Guangwu's colleagues. This team of soldiers holding the Xi family's flag might be General Xi from Nanxing.

Xue Guangwu had never seen Xi Chonggu, so he thought this was right. Luo Jiu came from a family behind him and had some gatherings when he was a teenager. He had seen Xi Chonggu. The brows and eyes of Xi Chonggu were not outstandingly handsome. His own pressure and reputation were beyond his own reputation. Luo Jiu didn't know if he would forget him when others met him. As a military general, Luo Jiu envied General Xi countless times and engraved his facial features in his heart.

After all, he was not famous when he left Nanxing. The dark army could not be justified and walked into the road of light. Luo Jiu knew the reason why the Xi family came at the first sight. Even if he didn't know that the Xi family and Liang Ren were married, the Huangzhou General Xi Chonggu had a reason to take action to calm the illegal attack of King Lu.

In the era of peace, many generals were in name only. They had no actual experience on the battlefield, but the Xi family was different. Several provinces surrounded and suppressed bandits, and the Xi family would come. When the border town was in a hurry, the Xi family would come. The Xi family had been steadily accumulating their own experience with practical combat.

Knowing that King Lu started a war with Nanxing without an imperial edict, it was normal for the Xi family to take care of other people's business, and it would be fine if he wrote a document to explain it later.

Now, when sitting high in the Golden Palace in Beijing, without evidence, he believed in the Xi family more than in the King of Lu, because there were also young people who were in high spirits and thought about weakening the power of the kings after ascending the throne. His mediocrity and various reasons did not do so in the end.

Which emperor can sit idly and see the loss of power? Crown Prince Liang Chao thinks this out of common sense; and which actual and indirect managers of fiefdoms will sit idly and see the loss of power? Guan Jiu from Heifengkou agrees to His Highness Qing’s proposal and marriage between the Xi family and the King of Jin, which is also out of common sense.

King Lu needed to restrain King Jin, and he came; Xi Chonggu needed to consolidate his reputation in his family, and he also came.

Luo Jiu's throat sounded in his eyes. If it weren't for it, he would gradually retreat. The pressure of fame was far greater than a punch or kick like a mountain. Besides, they didn't make sense.

If the one who came from Nanxing's army would be a different matter.

Xue Guangwu rushed forward, fantasizing about getting supplies and defeating the reinforcements in Nanxing. Luo Jiu took the horse back and was frightened.

"Who is this? This is General Xue Guangwu!" This is General Xue's last sentence, which may be used as a last word.

"Huangzhou General Xi Chonggu!"

With the thunderous shout, Xue Guangwu finally understood that when his face looked like earth, the sword light also came. His head fell to the ground, and Xi Chonggu gently picked it up in his hand, throwing it backwards and being caught by his servant.

He looked at Luo Jiu and felt that the young general had a familiar face.

Luo Jiu had wanted to escape, but then he thought that he couldn't escape, so he barely sat upright and said in a trembling voice: "God of General Xi."

"Which child from your family?"

"Luo Family, I'm your nephew."

Xi Chonggu said coldly: "Oh, then I won't kill you. If you don't have me, you are not allowed to leave. Lead the way. I remember that King Lu sent eight troops to give you a chance to atone for his sins."

Luo Jiu calmed down, and he was not panicked even if his life was still there. He would take the decision to decide if the general died. Now he was preparing to lead the way. Xue Guangwu's personal soldiers shouted in grief and anger: "General Luo, General Xue is good to you, are you still human?"

"You haven't understood who he is yet? General Xi Chonggu, the world's best general, no, the world's number one general!"

Out of dissatisfaction, the general habitually emphasized Xi Chonggu's blessing, rather than his ability to fight for generations of Xi's family. Luo Jiu blurted out that he was also a blessing, so he was busy changing his words.

The sword in the hands of the Xue family's personal soldiers slowly hang down, and finally fell to the ground weakly, making a sound and a splash of soil. This is General Xi, so General Xue will die, and he is unreasonable, so there is no place to make sense.

.....

The map is a microcosm of the country. It enhances the plan of King Lu to dominate the country every day, and temporarily satisfies the ambitions that King Lu did not achieve.

The ambition that grew in his chest often made his master sleepless and excited all night. Fortunately, news about Nanxing has been sent from time to time recently, which has relieved His Highness King Lu.

During the interval between the news, he could only look at the map, measure the fiefs of King Zhou of Xichang and King Chuan and Ding of Kings in the north of the capital, and formulate and improve relevant plans related to them.

His focus has always been on the whole country.

Cao Mengxing and several staff members came in and looked respectfully at King Lu. The focus of His Highness the King of Lu needs to change the world. The closer he is to him, the more he can feel his passion.

Your Highness wants the world, his aides want a future, and the prince has no outstanding performance. Cao Mengxing understands His Highness's worries and joy, and if he does not go further, he will be beaten. The news that comes from the capital, the words behind Prince Liang Chao are spread to the King of Zhou and King Chu will also be worried.

Let’s talk about Nanxing. Without His Highness King Lu driving Lao Hong away, would the people of Nanxing be satisfied now?

Cao Mengxing fits his own needs with his understanding. He is a man of Mengxing and is destined to follow great people. Because of him, Mengxing, there must be an ambitious man. He found His Highness King Lu, just like a fish finding water.

"Your Highness, so early again?"

Cao Mengxing greeted him respectfully.

King Lu said, "You are here," and asked again, "Is there any news about Nanxing?" He estimated that this battle would have caused six cities and several official roads to be deserted. If it lasted for more than a year, Liang Ren's silver treasury could be half empty.

After getting such a method, King Lu gradually felt at ease after sending troops. This was the unique feature of God's guidance, and Nanxing would eventually belong to him.

"I have seen it and haven't arrived yet. I think there will be good news today and tomorrow." Cao Mengxing also knew that Nanxing's city was fighting smoothly but did not get any actual benefits. Nanxing was like a turtle with its head shrank, and you could attack. The defenders of each city would never go to fight.

Six main generals were sent to the six cities, and two armies were raiding each city. Only those two armies came back the slowest. They seemed to be attacked to varying degrees, and they were also raiding, resulting in the interruption of supply and delivery from time to time.

King Lu nodded, the slow news coming back might be good news, and he thought so too.

He turned around halfway and planned to have some greetings. In the quiet early morning, footsteps came over. King Lu felt that he was not eager to leave enough and might not have frowned. He saw the servant holding a wooden box Gao Cheng: "Huangzhou General Xi Chonggu gives a gift."

The King of Lu laughed, it turned out to be him, and said, "This is not the New Year or the Festival, where did he make a fuss?" Xi Chonggu had weight in him, and Cao Mengxing was an important aide. The King of Lu ordered: "Check, open it!"

A breath of cold air spurted out from the servant's mouth. King Lu was stunned, and then his face sank: "What is it, are you going to make a fuss?"

The servant knew that he was unable to explain, so he knelt down and raised the wooden box. The two heads inside were topped by lime. In this hot weather, he had a luxurious place to put a few large pieces of ice. No wonder the box was not small.

Cao Mengxing screamed: "General Xue Guangwu! General Liu Li!"

There was also a letter in the box, and King Lu angrily pulled it and opened it.

"Xi Chonggu, Huangzhou, worshipped His Highness: The war suddenly broke out in Nanxing. How could the Xi family betrayed by the emperor? Why should the Xi family betrayed by the emperor? I am afraid that the improper handling of the matter will affect the Ning King's external forces? I personally led him to kill two heads, all of which were sent by His Highness. His Highness has no reputation. If you believe it, your Highness will rebel. If you don't believe it, you will present the head and ask your Highness to deal with it yourself."

King Lu was furious, cursing the bastard, and was heartbroken and exhaling. The person who sent the secret matter was a confidant general. Xi Chonggu, you are a god-killing person, you cut off your two arms.

Before he finished reading the letter, King Lu continued to go down angrily. He looked at it and scolded him: "Xi Chonggu, you dare to bully me!" He threw the letter to the ground, and he stood there and whimpered, obviously very angry.

Cao Mengxing picked up the letter, but he couldn't persuade King Lu without reading the content. When Cao Mengxing saw it, he lost three souls at the first glance, and the second glance also caused anger. He pointed to Huangzhou and cursed: "Xi Chonggu, do you still have my noble in your eyes? You are so bastard!"

Seeing that Mr. Cao was also angry, the remaining staff looked at each other. They should persuade His Highness and Cao Mengxing, but they still had to figure out the reason first. Everyone picked up the letter again and looked at each other.

When I saw this, I was furious again: "Xi Chonggu, you..."

The first half of a letter tells me who killed you, and the second half of the letter is the good news: "I have a sister in my family, and the King of Mengjin has made a decision on the marriage. I will report to Your Highness. After the date is drawn up in the capital, I will ask Your Highness to go to the mansion and be happy together!"

While saying that I killed your man, I said that there was a wedding event in my house. You came to the wedding bar and seemed to want to ask for a gift. I was so angry that King Lu and his staff were so angry. Is this something that people can do?

At this time, the sound of anxious footsteps outside rang out, and another servant gasped in: "Battle report, Nanxing!"

"roll!"

The King of Lu roared and scared the servant to leave the room with his head in his head. He heard a "spooky" sound behind him. The things in the study were affected. I don't know how many shattered under the rage of the King of Lu.

"Xi Chonggu!"

This is the next second loud roar from King Lu, and the third loud roar was in a hurry: "Retreat troops, hurry up and go to Nanxing, withdraw troops!"

Xi Chonggu and Liang Ren married, and His Highness of Lu lost the convenience of Zhongcheng Province. His remaining soldiers and generals in Nanxing were in a situation where they had no way out. Liang Ren grabbed Nanxing's troops and horses and caught turtles in the jar, which was so relaxed and comfortable.
