Chapter 559 Desperate Situation (1)

Yan Keqiu walked to Xu Wen's side, looked at Xu Wen's departure back with his eyes, and whispered: "Master, this guy is afraid that this guy will not be willing to give up after this incident, so he should be wary of it early."

Xu Wen did not answer, but just nodded gently.

After this incident, Zhang Hao gave generous gifts to his subordinates and indulged his actions arbitrarily. Many soldiers from the Right Ya went to the Left Ya. In addition, the left was respected in the Tang Dynasty, and the left Ya was originally stronger than the Right Ya. Xu Wen may be worried about the gap in strength. He hid at home most of the time every day, even in the hall, and invisibly, the military and political power of Huainan fell into the hands of Zhang Hao alone. He had become the uncrowned king of Huainan.

All matters in this heaven have been discussed. Xu Wen was about to get up and go home, but he heard Zhang Hao beside him say, "Everyone, let's wait for a moment, there is still something that has not been decided!" Xu Wen was stunned when he heard it, and turned around and saw Zhang Hao staring at him with his eyes on him, a meaningful smile on his lips, and his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

Zhang Hao saw the generals and officials sitting down and said in a deep voice: "Since ancient times, the land of Wu Yue has been one. If it were not Wu Tunyue, then Yue would destroy Wu. Since the time when King Wu Zhong was alive, there were Dong Chang, Qian Miao, and later Lu Fang, both of which were life and death enemies in Huainan. Although the two families have their troops now, Lu Fang has trained troops and accumulated food and coveted the land of western Zhejiang for more than one day. However, the three states in western Zhejiang each have their own ministers, no commander, and Guangling is separated from them, and there are different powers, which is quite inconvenient. So I plan to write to the King and ask the position of Observation Envoy in western Zhejiang to govern the troops of Chang, Run and Xuan, to hold soldiers and raise horses, and wait for the opportunity to challenge. What do you think?"

As soon as Zhang Hao finished speaking, the hall suddenly became quiet. To be honest, Zhang Hao's suggestions were very insightful. Although Yang Xingmi was in Xuanzhou, Jiangnan, after controlling Huainan, he transferred his ruling center to a vast area between Jianghuai with Guangling as the center. In this way, western Zhejiang, located in Jiangnan, has become a relatively high area. In order to prevent the situation of being too big, Yang Xingmi has not only been

The position of Zhejiang West Observer was not appointed, and even Tian Wei refused to ask for an expansion of his jurisdiction. He even joined forces with Qian Miao, who was originally an enemy to prevent the strength of Zhejiang West Guardians and other Zhejiang military generals from expanding too much. After the Tian and An rebellion, he naturally would not appoint Zhejiang West Observer as an important official who ruled the western prefectures of Zhejiang West. However, with Zhong Chuan's death, Huainan sent heavy troops to Jiangxi, which was located in the upper reaches, and was recently defeated by Ma Yin, Hunan, and was located between the two fronts of Zhejiang West.

The power balance has gradually become beneficial to the Zhenhai Army. More importantly, with the growth of the overall strength of the Zhenhai Army, the Zhenhai Army's Yangtze River Navy, based on Haimen and Chongming Islands, began to frequently appear in the rivers of Changzhou and even Guangling and Runzhou, which was quite stance to cut off cross-strait traffic. At that time, the western part of Zhejiang in Huainan would inevitably face the fierce attack of more than ten provinces of Zhenhai Army alone. In this case, a military and political superior was established to integrate manpower and material resources.

It seemed particularly necessary. However, Zhang Hao raised this matter at this critical moment, but people could not help but doubt his intention. Zhang Hao's eyes swept over everyone and said with a smile: "Since you don't speak, you agree to a certain family. Then the matter is settled. Then the capital will be placed in Runzhou, and the land envoy is the deputy envoy of the branch. Is this the candidate?" At this point, Zhang Hao paused, turned around and looked at Xu Wen: "I'll be troubled, and the matter in western Zhejiang will be more troubled!"

Xu Wen was shocked when he heard this. Zhang Hao was obviously trying to drive himself out of Guangling. After he left Guangling, he would have to hand over the right yamen power in his hand. In this way, the two most powerful troops in Guangling City fell into Zhang Hao's hands. In addition to the several scattered troops stationed near Guangling, the forces in Zhang Hao's palms had actually overwhelmed all the others. Not only in name, but also in actual strength, Zhang Hao had already climbed to the peak of power in Huainan.

"Dunmei, what do you think of as the Zhejiang West Observer?"

Just as Xu Wen was thinking about how to overcome the difficulties in front of him, Zhang Hao continued to ask. His tone was kind and gentle, and his usual arrogance was completely different. However, in Xu Wen's feeling, this gentleness was quite similar to the cat playing with prey, and the hairs on the back of his neck immediately stood up.

"I have never been out to lead such a large army to fight. Western Zhejiang faces a strong enemy. Let's choose another experienced veteran to sit in this position!" Xu Wenqiang smiled. He couldn't think of any favorable reasons for a while, so he had to shirk his lack of experience in leading the army as a reason.

"So what? Whoever is born to lead troops to fight? Haven't they all learned slowly? Besides, have you not fought with Zhenhaijun yet? You also have veteran generals such as Li Jian around you. Now that he is old and withered, Dunmei, you have to bear more burdens!" Speaking of this, Zhang Haohu raised his face and pretended to be angry: "Besides, if you don't go, who else can go? Could it be that I, Zhang Hao, can I do this Zhejiang West Observation?"

"I want you to go!" Xu Wen cursed in his stomach, but had to pretend to be moved: "Since Brother Zhang said this, I have to be ashamed of taking this position."

"Okay! OK! OK!" Zhang Hao reached out and grabbed Xu Wen's right arm, laughed and said, "This is the good brother of a certain family. Let's do this. You won't use it here in the past half month. Take care of the family affairs and prepare to go on the road. Just have a certain family here. What do you think about Dunmei?"

Xu Wen had nothing to say at this time, so he had to smile bitterly and nodded in agreement. Zhang Hao did this clearly to nail this matter to death and not give him any room for maneuver. But at this situation, he had no choice but to agree first and then discuss with Yan Keqiu to see if there was any way to recover.

Xu Wen had just returned home and immediately ordered his men to ask Yan Ke to come to the home to discuss countermeasures. But after a long time, his men said that there was no one in both the official residence and Xu Wen's house. Xu Wen couldn't help but feel depressed, but he was well-educated and did not do anything to vent his anger on his hands. After only dinner, he walked in the back garden according to his old habits. After walking twice, he felt irritated and burned inside. Seeing that there was no one around, he couldn't help but curse: "Zhang Hao, you are too bullying!"

As soon as Xu Wen finished speaking, he heard a sound in the bushes beside the courtyard wall, as if something heavy was falling to the ground. He immediately became alert, pulled out his waist knife with his backhand, and was about to push the bushes to see what happened, he heard a sound from inside. It was a seriously injured and dying person, vaguely Yan Keqiu's voice. Xu Wen quickly pushed away the bushes, and saw Xu Wen lying in the grass with blood on his body, his chest undulating slightly, his breathing was short and heavy, and for a moment he was also

He couldn't see where the injury was. He rushed forward and was about to help Yan Keqiu up. He wanted to ask what happened. Yan Keqiu screamed in pain. Xu Wen then found that an arrow was hit on the right rib, which had already been sank about one-third of it. He probably had hit the arrow shaft that was exposed just now. He was afraid that he would worsen the injury when he encountered it again, so he quickly put Yan Keqiu flattened again, stood up and shouted loudly: "Come on, come on the stretcher and have clean cloth!"

The room was filled with the smell of blood and strong wine, which was so heavy that it could make people beat people. Xu Wen stood aside, his face turned pale, watching the two maids busy cleaning Yan Keqiu's wounds. The doctor had not invited him yet. Fortunately, Xu Wen was a general. Even the maids at home had been trained to deal with the simple injuries, and he could still deal with it simply before the doctor came. Yan Keqiu was lying on the brocade couch, his face pale as if he was dead, and his chest was not slightly undulating, as if he was already a corpse.

A copper basin was placed next to the brocade bed, full of blood. I saw four or five wounds of varying depths between the chest, abdomen and ribs. The deep feet showed the bones, and the shallow ones were several points deep. This showed the tragic battle, and the most serious injury was the arrow hit by the right rib. It was extremely deep into the flesh. It was afraid that the internal organs had been damaged. The two maids did not dare to pull it out, for fear that they would kill the injured person's life. They only dared to clean the wounded few injuries and applied them with Jinchuang medicine.

Just as the house was in chaos, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside, but the doctor invited him. Xu Wen personally lifted the curtain and said respectfully: "This Mr. Yan is my strong man. The doctor must do his best to treat him. After the matter is completed, Xu should break the family and thank him!"

The doctor did not answer Xu Wen's words immediately, walked straight to Yan Keqiu's side, looked at the injury, stretched out his finger and placed it on the other party's wrist to take a pulse. After a while, he sighed, "This is strange!"

Xu Wen's eyebrows jumped and he quickly stepped forward and said, "Why do you say this by sir? Is it impossible to treat it?"

The doctor took his hand back, took the wet wipes from the maid and wiped the hand for purging the pulse, and smiled and said, "It is said that Mr. Yan is so seriously injured and has a lot of blood. He should only have one breath left. But although his pulse is weak, it is very smooth and even, and he has spare energy. It looks a bit like, a bit like." The doctor seemed to be thinking about a good comparison method, and suddenly said, "It's like a person sleeping very heavily."

"Is this good or bad sign?" Xu Wen was confused about his concern at this time and asked.

"Of course it's a good thing. He was probably three points of hope at most. Judging from the pulse, he was at least 50% sure to save him!" The doctor pointed to the arrow that was sank into Yan Keqiu's right rib with confidence and said, "If he was more lucky and the arrow did not hurt the internal organs, a certain family would be 70% to 80%. Otherwise, even if he was rescued, he would be a useless person!"

Xu Wen was anxious when he heard this aside, and said anxiously: "Doctor, please do it!"

The doctor nodded and said in a deep voice: "You can get two charcoal stoves first and heat the room. People who lose too much blood are most afraid of the cold. There are also ginseng soup, stove, boiling water, and clean water to listen to it!"
