At the beginning of February, Lan Xi's stomach swelled like a blow. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info And the capital also received the first good news from Jingzhou City.

King An annihilated a small group of soldiers and horses sent by the rebels outside the city of Jingzhou. Although it is not a great victory, it is like an earth-shattering shock for today's capital. Let the sluggish to a little desperate capital boil overnight.

Since then, Jingzhou City has been a good news. Although it was not a big victory, word of mouth among the people gradually gave King An the title of invincible, like the god of war.

Even Lan Xi almost believed it, and seriously reflected on whether he had underestimated King An too much in the past. It turned out that he was not the one who lived in a splendid pile, only knew wealth and glory, played with power, and even saw a beautiful woman, his eyes lit up, and if he was really talented, at least he was very brave.

And at this time, when the people in this capital were praising King An's great achievements in breaking the enemy and winning the victory, and worshipping him, there was another battle report in Jingzhou.

This time, it was not good news.

On February 18, the ice floes in the Jing River gradually melted. The rebels shouted under the gate of Jingzhou, and every word was a provocation. King An was greedy for merit, and despite the dissuasion of the Jingzhou Taishou and the deputy marshal, he insisted on leading his troops out of the city to meet the enemy. I didn't want to, but I was invited into the urn by the rebels with the bitter trick of defeat, and chased into the encirclement that the rebels had already arranged, and the 50,000 army was almost wiped out. He was desperately rescued by the guards, but he had already lost a leg, and there was a terrible knife mark on his originally handsome face.

When the news was transmitted back to the capital, Emperor Zhenwu was so angry that he vomited blood and fell into a coma.

Lan Xi sighed in private, so many good news in front of King An, I am afraid that it is just a game set up by King Ping against his temperament. In order to make King An's self-confidence inflated, he thought that he was really invincible, so he would not listen to anything, and dare to fall into the trap set for him at any risk.

50,000 people! Lan Xi did not have any sympathy for King An's failure, but he felt sorry for the 50,000 lives that died innocently and tragically for King An's arrogance and stupidity.

"His Royal Highness King An has been escorted back to the capital, right? So on the Jingzhou side, how did the saint arrange it? Lan Xi asked as she pruned the flower branches.

This time, there is no doubt that Changfeng was left behind by Geng Xiwu again. But this time, he didn't have the first resistance, because of his gratitude to Lan Xi, because of his respect for Lan Xi, he didn't feel any dissatisfaction when he stayed by her side.

It's just that, looking at Lan Xi's wide coat and his high and erect belly, his expression is still a little tense. Although Lan Xi's movements are quite dexterous, he always hangs a heart, afraid that there will be some emergencies.

Hearing Lan Xi's question, he didn't react for a while, until Lan Xi turned his head and looked at him suspiciously, he woke up and hurriedly replied, "King An is already on the way back to Beijing, and the situation in Jingzhou is not very good, this battle was lost, 50,000 soldiers and horses were lost at one time, and the morale of the army was low, and the king of the county meant that he had to send another prince to supervise the war in order to stabilize the army's heart, and most of the people in the court were seconded, but the saint was delayed." ”

Lan Xi nodded, not incomprehensible. King An went here to make military achievements. But I didn't want to, I lost before the battle, and my leg was broken, and it is said that I was afraid that the leg would be disabled even if it was cured. In this way, King An basically has no chance with that seat. After all, Daqing is a big country, and no matter what, it cannot tolerate a person with a disability and a handicap to become the king of a country.

And the saint, this time not only lost to King Ping on the battlefield, but also lost a son, and at this time he has to send another son to confront King Ping, so naturally he has to consider and consider, after all, whoever he sends may repeat the mistakes of the past.

"The war is tight, I believe that the Holy Lord will make a decision soon." Leading soldiers is not child's play, King An and King Qi are older, King An does not say, after all, he is the elder, and King Qi because his mother's family is the Geng family who is in charge of most of the military power in Daqing, he often goes to the military camp when he is young, and has also been to the Northwest Army for a year, as long as the saint has the idea of winning in his heart, the King of Qi is the best choice.

No wonder, when King An asked for an expedition earlier, I didn't see Geng Xiwu's reaction, it turned out that this was the moment they were waiting for? It is expected that King An is not King Ping's opponent, and at this time, King Qi will come out to clean up the mess, which will be twice the result with half the effort. It's just that Lan Xi still can't bear it in his heart, and the price of exchanging 50,000 lives for this opportunity seems to be too great.

Changfeng seemed to see what she was thinking, and hurriedly said, "At first, King Qi and Lord only expected that King An would not be able to please King Ping, but they didn't want to ...... No one expected this to be the result. King Qi regretted it very much yesterday, saying that he had known that this was the case, and he should have been more cautious when making a plan. ”

Lan Xi nodded, if King Qi really had such an idea, it could only mean that he at least did not regard human life as a mustard, so she would not feel that Geng Xiwu was a person who would do whatever it took to achieve the goal, and she had a pimple in her heart.

As Lan Xi expected, the saint quickly made a decision and ordered the king of Qi to lead another 80,000 soldiers and horses to aid Jingzhou and take over the post of marshal of King An.

King Qi spent two days gathering troops and horses and went to Jingzhou.

In this capital, for a moment, it fell silent again. Even King An's return to Beijing was quiet. The last defeat added a lot of anxiety to these people who lived in the splendid pile.

Lan Xi didn't care about these very much, she was reading a letter from Beiguan. The Beidi army in Beiguan, as Geng Xiwu expected, was really just picking quarrels and harassing, but it was not in love with war. But he learned the lesson of King An, but he didn't dare to go out of the pass to meet the enemy easily, so he could only defend the pass for the time being. After all, the earlier was all speculation, if the Beidi army was waiting, what if it was an opportunity? If the battle in the south is lost, and the Beidi army takes the opportunity to raise troops to attack Beiguan, it will really not be good.

Naturally, there are words of concern for her and the child in her womb in the letter, and a few words are his usual style, but you can also see the obstacles in his heart. At the end, leave a sentence of frantic thought. Lan Xi blinked in amazement, but then smiled, this was the first time he had expressed his feelings so openly in a letter, it was really ...... Ecstatic!

After laying out the letter paper, she personally studied the ink and replied to him. There are all trivial things, such as she has eaten too much recently, and even Yu Nanxing has warned her, so Qin's mother urged her to reduce the amount of food she eats, and she is active every day. Her belly is already tall, and the child in her belly seems to be a naughty person who often exercises her fists and feet. At night, when he lifted his clothes, he often saw his round belly, bulging here for a while, bulging there for a while, sometimes he was probably stretching his legs, that is, he put his little feet against her belly, refusing to let go, it hurt a little, she had to touch it lightly through the belly, and he would shrink his feet.
