Tongguan, the handsome hall of Nuoda was dim, two trank wax crackled, the fluttering candlelight reflected two erratic figures, Shangshu's left servant and deputy marshal of the soldiers and horses Brother Shuhan had a gloomy face, sitting on the couch without saying a word. The subordinate general Wang Sili persuaded in a low voice at an elbow distance from him.

"If you don't strike first, the prime minister will be harmed by Yang Guozhong sooner or later!"

A cold sneer came out of Ge Shuhan's nostrils, and the expression on the right side of his face was obviously out of harmony with the left side of his face because of the stroke.

"The old man has hundreds of thousands of troops, Yang Guozhong?" his tone was full of disdain and contempt, in his eyes, this fortunate person who relied on women's nepotism to achieve the position of prime minister was not qualified to go against him. "Why did he fight with the old man? Could it be that he wanted the concubine to cry in front of the Son of Heaven?"

Even after the people, Ge Shuhan still unceremoniously ridiculed Yang Guozhong.

Of course, Ge Shuhan has this kind of confidence to give up who he is, and now that hundreds of thousands of troops in the imperial court are in his hands, the safety of the Chang'an portal must be borne by him alone, unless the head of the Son of Heaven is broken, he will let Yang Guozhong toss blindly.

However, his general, Wang Sili, the commander of the Ma army, was not impressed.

"How could Yang Guozhong have taken care of the imperial court for personal gain? If it weren't for the fact that he was pressing forward step by step, and repeatedly making stupid moves with the Son of Heaven, why would An Lushan be the opposite now?"

Ge Shuhan was silent when he heard this. Wang Sili is right, if it weren't for the court's misdemeanor, even if An Lushan wanted to rebel, he would only wait until the Son of Heaven and Dragon returned to heaven. The Son of Heaven has been the Son of Peace for more than 40 years, and his prestige over the years cannot be underestimated, but after all, he is already over the age of old, and how many years does he have to live?

Although these words cannot be said explicitly, they are also clear to a discerning person at a glance.

"Xianggong, don't hesitate. An Lushan rebelled, in the name of the Qing monarch's side, to get rid of Yang Guozhong. As long as Xianggong left 30,000 people to guard Tongguan, and the rest of the elite army all returned to Chang'an, after killing Yang Guozhong, An Lushan had no excuse to attack Guanzhong, and Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty pacified the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, which was also used by this strategy. ”

The army returned to Chang'an and killed Yang Guozhong, so that the Son of Heaven could be coerced to order the princes. The thought of this kind of thought would make people's blood boil just by thinking about it, and if Ge Shuhan was ten years younger, he might agree to Wang Sili's suggestion. However, at this moment, Ge Shuhan is very determined, he must not do this, otherwise what difference will he have from the rebellious An Lushan?

"The old man can't be the second in An Lushan, he can't stand Yang Guozhong's persecution, and he wants to rebel, how can the old man follow in the footsteps of Zahuer?"

Seeing that the old man was resolute, Wang Sili was anxious and angry, and stomped his feet again and again.

"The old minister is constantly making decisions today, and he won't regret it in the future!"

Ge Shuhan's face finally showed a slight smile, he could see that Wang Sili was really worried about his own safety, over the years, some of the generals who had been raised up single-handedly changed their doors and sought glory behind their backs, and some were local border commanders and guarded one side. Only Wang Sili has always been left and right, doing his best.

"When will Wei Boyu arrive in Tongguan? Yang Guozhong can't kill him, kill a wolf cub who is in the twilight of Qin, and the old man won't blink his eyes. ”

In Wang Sili's view, since he had already decided not to kill Yang Guozhong and killed one of Yang Guozhong's pawns, what was the use of killing Yang Guozhong's pawns? However, Ge Shuhan now is both conceited and domineering, and his temper has increased unabated compared to when he was a temperance envoy in Longyou, and the matters decided will never allow any objections from his subordinates, and naturally cannot be changed.

After sighing, Wang Sili asked:

"Dare to ask Xianggong, on what charge did you kill Wei Boyu?"

"You think about the crime, the old man only needs Wei Boyu's head. ”

Ge Shuhan hated people the most in his life, Wei Boyu was picked up by him, and it was just a matter of changing the court, and he actually took refuge in Yang Guozhong, with whom he almost didn't share the sky, which is absolutely intolerable.

In the afternoon of the next day, Wei Boyu led the new army to Tongguan one after another, and his original intention was not to come to Tongguan by no means. has been a general under Ge Shuhan for many years, and he knows the temper of this old man, if he goes to Tongguan, he will definitely not end well. However, even Prime Minister Yang Guozhong was helpless about this matter, and when an edict from the Son of Heaven was issued, who would dare not obey?

Tongguan is less than 100 miles away from Chang'an, and the cavalry can reach it in one day and the infantry in three days. Wei Boyu did not follow the infantry on the road, but arrived at Tongguan with a small number of cavalry first. Since the meeting with Ge Shuhan is inevitable, he can only take the initiative to bow his head to Ge Shuhan in exchange for his understanding.

Although Wei Boyu knew that the possibility of being readmitted by Ge Shuhan was almost zero, he could not get out of the game in the game, and he could only cheer up and do his best.

Immediately stopped, Wei Boyu raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and the arrow tower of Tongguan Guancheng was already faintly visible. However, what followed was a chilling fear that made him feel cold, as if the Guancheng of Tongguan was like a hungry tiger, with its bloody mouth wide open, waiting for him to throw himself into the net.

Suddenly, a group of cavalry came up from afar, Wei Boyu looked over nervously, but saw that the flag of the general hunting in the wind was embroidered with a big king character, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If it is not surprising that he came to greet him, it should be Wang Sili, the commander of the Ma army.

Sure enough, as the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, Wang Sili suddenly entered Wei Boyu's line of sight.

Wang Sili is a kind-hearted and old-fashioned person, and has never been an enemy of others, if this person is responsible for contacting him, maybe he can ask for forgiveness in front of Ge Shuhan. Thinking of this, Wei Boyu's spirit was shocked and urged the horse to rush over.

After a brief greeting for a while, Wang Sili informed the new army of the resettlement method, and before Ge Shuhan's inspection, he could not go into battle to kill the enemy, and could only rest and prepare for war west of Tongguan.

This arrangement was also generally expected by Wei Boyu, and it was impossible for Ge Shuhan to let them go to Tongguan to fill in the new army that the imperial court had spent a lot of energy to train.

"Third brother Wang, the younger brother wants to see the old minister, but I don't know if the old minister is willing to ......"

After Wang Sili heard this, he smiled and told him that he was too worried, as long as he could follow the old minister's left and right in the future and not have two hearts, the old minister's association would forgive him.

Wei Boyu was convinced of Wang Sili's character, and after listening to Wang Sili's words, it was like taking a reassuring pill, and after simply arranging the cavalry camping matters, he was relieved and boldly took a dozen followers to follow Wang Sili and his party to Tongguan in a hurry.

……

A cavalry cavalry galloped eastward along the left bank of Beiluoshui, and came to a halt when it was about ten miles from the ruins of the small city of Chaoyi. Qin Jin turned over and dismounted, he looked at Beiluoshui worriedly, on the originally wide river, now there was only a stream of less than ten paces left.

Due to the lack of rain this year, the water volume of many rivers in the Guanzhong River system has decreased sharply, and some have even been cut off. However, due to the reduction in the amount of water in the river, the dredging of the Zhengbai Canal is much easier than in previous years, when the water is abundant.

"Envoy, the front is Chaoyi, just in case, first send a horse to explore the road!"

Qin Jin came here to fulfill the contract and have a face-to-face interview with Huangfu Ke to discuss the matter of the two armies striking out and making peace. His bottom line is very simple, recruiting the other party will definitely not be able to pass in the political hall, but the Shenwu Army will never use its limited manpower to fight with its own family. So, his plan was for the two lords to sit down and discuss a mutually beneficial way out.

Huangfu Ke is indeed an old fox, but Qin Jin asked himself that he could use grain as a chain and tightly tie the other party's neck so that he would not dare to make a mistake.

Moreover, from Pei Jing's report, Qin Jin once again confirmed that Huangfu Ke generally did not have the subjective will to defect to An Lushan's rebels, and after killing all An Lushan's secret envoys, he had no way back, so he could only obediently cooperate with the Shenwu Army.

"Look at the east, it's coming!"

An attendant sergeant raised his hand and pointed to the horizon in the distance, only to see the clouds of smoke and dust getting closer and closer, and he didn't need to see clearly to know that the smoke and dust were carrying an elite cavalry.

"Envoy, in order to prevent the old thief from cheating, it is better to retreat five miles one after another......"

Qin Jin rejected the suggestion of his entourage, and the Shenwu army came here to negotiate peace and prestige.

"Wu Hu Huaizhong, follow Qin to meet him, and he will be the old fox of Huangfu for a while!"

Qin Jin came this time to bring five hundred elite cavalry of the Tongluo Division, but he wanted Huangfu Ke to see that the cavalry of the Shenwu Army was superior to the Shuofang Army under his command.

After Wuhu Huaizhong gave an order, the horns of the bull whined, and the five hundred cavalry of the Tongluo Division followed closely behind Qin Jin, rushing like a leopard, and rushed towards the direction of the smoke and dust.

At the same time, the other party also discovered Qin Jin's cavalry, and it was Huangfu Ke who took the lead, he was very surprised to look at the cavalry of the Shenwu Army that came suddenly, and couldn't help but sigh.

"The Shenwu Army is really not in vain, just from the momentum of these five hundred cavalry, it is definitely not inferior to the elite of the Shuofang Army. ”

Huang Fu Ke roared and slowed down, and the cavalry and horse team suddenly slowed down, slowly advancing along the spacious official road.

"It's a good Qin Jin, after all, I still underestimated him. He turned his head to Pei Jing beside him and said, "Virtuous nephew, look, Qin Jin is among the cavalry?"

The cavalry of the Shenwu Army had already galloped several miles away in the blink of an eye, and Pei Jing easily recognized Qin Jin, who was dressed in black armor.

"So that the king is indeed in the cavalry and horses, oh, the black armor at the front......"

Qin Jin didn't know that the two of them, an old man and a young man, were pointing out and commenting on him, and the cavalry of the same Luo tribe advanced wildly, and finally began to slow down three miles away from the other party, until they walked slowly, otherwise it would not be a meeting with the other party, but a cavalry charge.

Suddenly, there was a sharp and sharp whistle behind him.

This is a whistle unique to the heralds of the Shenwu Army, and everyone who hears this whistle must give way or assist the heralds first.

"Report, transferred from the same state, Tongguan urgent!"

The herald's voice was hoarse and anxious, Qin Jin's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition hung in his heart

Moments later, the parchment newspaper unfolded...... Wei Boyu was beheaded by Ge Shuhan in the name of disobedience, and his dismounted infantry was commanded by Ge Shuhan's designated person......
