Yuan De's camp tent is vast and hot, spread out for hundreds of miles, and the camp is made of wooden fences, and its surroundings are full of woods and thatch, once a fire breaks out, it will be burned into a piece.

Yu Gui directly took all the soldiers, and no one took a handful of thatch to attack in the night. Directly set fire to the direction of the wind, even if Yuan Jun was prepared, he definitely did not expect such a scene.

Such a scene is so familiar to the Chu army, Song Qin was such a fire that Ye Yi was defeated. Now the water war has been replaced by a land war, and Song Qin has been replaced by Yu Gui. Ye Jun was replaced by Chu Jun, but this scene did not change at all.

The light of the fire illuminated the night, the shouts, the soldiers, the crackling of the burning.

By the time the sky was getting brighter and the fire was extinguished, Yu Gui had already captured more than 40 camps, and the night's fighting, the depression of the past year, and the dissatisfaction of the Jiangdong Army were completely swayed on the battlefield this night, and the morale of the army was still not reduced until dawn.

There is nothing to say about the flanking attack and annihilation in the future, after the extreme half a month, the Yuan army was annihilated by more than 100,000 people, Yuan De broke through by night, and finally the army of 140,000, only 20,000 fled back to Chu with Yuan De.

After the first battle, in addition to the originally fallen cities, Jiangdong only captured five cities in ten days.

When Gu Che and Chu Qi heard the news on the Western Front, they didn't know whether to laugh or be sad.

That defeat is still a nightmare for many generals. What was Chu Jun's thoughts at this time? Gu Che didn't need to think about it at all, this kind of completely one-sided slaughter, the battlefield had become a Shura field......

Yuan De's army was defeated to Shangcheng, and Jiangdong finally stopped chasing.

Gu Che originally felt a little pity, but what happened next made Gu Che not know what to say.

Only a few days after arriving in Shangcheng, Yuan De fell ill.

Illness comes like a mountain, Ye Yi is like this, and Yuan De is also like this. Half a month later, Xi Zhen led his troops to Shangcheng.

After another half a month, Yuan De died of illness, and Xi Zhen was named prime minister and imprisoned the country.

Gu Che smiled when he heard the news, "In the end, I still underestimated Yuan De at the beginning." ”

"That's ......," Chu Qi smiled, "The general should have understood, if it weren't for such a character, how could there be so many people following him." ”

Gu Che nodded.

Yuan De didn't bring Xi Zhen with him when he went on the expedition, so naturally there is nothing to say. is also somewhat in Gu Che's calculations, but when Yuan De died, he could still know that Xi Zhen was indeed the material of the auxiliary country, so that Xi Zhen could assist the country. A monarch who can know his mistakes in time is indeed worthy of the position of monarch.

After all, Yuan De is different from Ye Yi and He Xiao, and even from He Zhen.

He has neither the foundation of the Ye Yi family, nor the loyal ministers left by his father and father like He Zhen, nor does he have an elder brother like He Xiao who died suddenly after fighting the world.

A grass man, but with a name, he can do what he is doing today, no matter how much Gu Che once despised him, he can indeed be called a hero.

Gu Che thought about it and smiled again, "It's a little interesting what he said at the end." ”

"If you are ten times more talented than Ye Huai, you will be able to settle the country and finally decide on a big event. If the heir can be supplemented, it will be supplemented; If you are not talented, you can take it yourself. ”

Needless to say, the front praised Xi Zhen, but the back was the same as when He Zhen died.

The two sentences are very similar, but one says "You will take it yourself." The other said, "You can take it yourself." ”

Even if He Zhen didn't leave the position to his younger brother, it was understandable to leave it to Song Qin. However, Yuan De left the position to Xi Zhen, which is a little intriguing.

There can be many explanations for this sentence, such as the first one is the same as He Zhen at the beginning, "If he is not virtuous, then you will be in this position yourself."

However, now that Yuan De has been proclaimed emperor, if Xi Zhen replaces him, it will be a matter of changing the dynasty.

If not, that's two other things.

One is that if my son is not talented, then you should make a choice and see how my other children are.

And the other is that if he can't, then you can do whatever you want, and I don't blame you if you don't follow us.

Which one it means, or if there are several of them, only Xi Zhen, who has died, knows.

Xi Zhen is indeed a big material, but the current Xi Zhen is not competent in terms of fame or qualifications, so most of these words are the latter two. Now the tired Chu State can't afford to change the dynasty again.

The state of Chu is in mourning, and Jiangdong has just recovered a few lost territories, and it still needs to be rectified, and Yicheng has just taken the throne everywhere to be adjusted.

Although this time the state of Chu was defeated in Jiangdong, and the emperor died. However, Xi Zhen is not Yuan De after all, he will not act rashly, and he is more sober, so he will not let the country attack Jiangdong again.

At this time, he still chose to unite with the Jiangdong armistice.

Jiangdong was naturally happy to do this, although it was much stronger after swallowing the four cities of Chu State, it could even be said to be the only truly feasible land expansion after that defeat of Ye Yi. However, at this time, Jiangdong did not have the strength to compete with Da Yue in the world.

At this time, if you don't form an alliance with the Chu State, but watch the Chu State die out like this, it will be even more difficult to deal with Dayue in the future.

Therefore, Jiangdong won the victory, and naturally made peace.

After Gu Che learned about this arrangement, he began to think about a lot of things before, and remembered the time he saw Yu Gui.

Did Yu Gui already think about the current situation at that time?

Otherwise, it would not be possible to explain why Jiangdong wanted to kill Xu You, Jiangdong put on a high posture with this incident, suing the Chu State, who is stronger.

The war couldn't afford to deal with the fire for the time being, so Gu Che had nothing to do for a while.

After holding a few competitions in the army, there was nothing to do, Gu Che looked at the sky and the sky was wide and suddenly felt that it would be good if he was like this for the rest of his life.

There are no major disputes, although the country is now a little smaller, and it is no longer as vast as the previous dynasty, but it also shocked the Quartet and no one dared to offend.

Chu Qi walked over with a smile, "The two boys over there quarreled, and they want the general to go and judge, and the general will go over and take a look?" ”

Gu Che shook his head and smiled, "There is no war like this, let them quarrel." ”

Chu Qi also laughed, "I can't remember what it was like when there was no battle on the floating platform." ”

"Huh?" Gu Che turned his head to look at Chu Qi, and then laughed, "It's not bad like this now." ”

"yes, I just don't know what the situation is in Yunzhou." Chu Qi touched his beard, "It's about to enter the New Year again." ”

Gu Che was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly remembered, "It's been a long time since Yunzhou has written from you, right?" ”

"Yes." Chu Qi nodded, "It seems that Yunzhou is not bad." ”

Gu Che was stunned for a moment in her heart, she had information about the Gu family, so she didn't feel that there were fewer letters from Yunzhou. However, if Yunzhou is peaceful, Ye Huai will not not sue her.

Gu Che frowned, then thought about it and went back to the camp and wrote a letter to Ye Huai and his family.

However, Ye Huai still didn't respond, his family came back, and Yunzhou basically settled down, but there were some strange situations.

Gu Che looked at them one by one, and the more he looked at them, the more uneasy he became.

After waiting like this for another month, Ye Huai's letterhead still didn't arrive.

Something happened to Ye Huai, and Gu Che clearly understood it in his heart.

However, in his own information, he only found anomalies, and there was no conclusion to say more......

Gu Che took a deep breath, quickly arranged the affairs in the army, and finally returned to Yunzhou with some of his own soldiers when the New Year was approaching.

Regarding the possible changes in Yunzhou, Gu Che did not say that now that the Chu State and Jiangdong are friendly again, the situation is not good, and if there is a major incident again, it is likely that the situation will be out of control.

Because there was something in his heart, Gu Che returned quickly, and there were many people who came out to greet him at the city gate, but there was no Ye Huai.

Gu Che didn't say anything, Yu Li said that Ye Huai is now the emperor, and it is natural that such a thing is reasonable if he does not come in person, but it is unlikely.

Gu Che still didn't say anything, and after greeting a few words with the ministers who came to pick him up, he returned to Gu's mansion.

As soon as Gu Che entered the door, the whole Gu family greeted him at the door of the mansion, and Gu Che was a little helpless, "Why do you make such a big move." ”

"You haven't been back for years? Even if you come back and don't know how long you will be going after the year, you will naturally come to meet you. Hui Ge smiled brightly, Gu Che nodded, and looked at Gu Xi to the side, "How is it lately?" “

"Xi'er is naturally very good." Gu Xi smiled and saluted.

Gu Che nodded and then entered the main hall, first drank tea and listened to Hui Ge talking to Gu Xi about the Gu family, after listening, Hui Ge looked at Gu Xi, but did not let Gu Xi go down, but spoke directly, "What did you hear when you came back this time?" ”

Gu Che nodded, "What else is there in Yunzhou?" ”

Hui Ge didn't speak, but looked at Gu Xi. Gu Xi thought for a moment before speaking, "Most of the ministers and eunuchs in Yunzhou were left by Emperor Wu at the beginning, and many of them were originally children of the Han family, although they have also gained some fame over the years......

"But it can't be called a family." Gu Che blew away the tea leaves in the teacup, "And the edict issued by Emperor Wen before has harmed their interests." ”

Gu Xi nodded, "Father is suspicious? ”

"There's a chance he's under house arrest." Gu Che spoke, "At least I'm being watched." ”

Gu Xi took a deep breath, "Who is so bold." ”

Gu Che put down the teacup, "Yes, who is so bold......"

Gu Che didn't rush to the palace to see how Ye Yi was doing, but adjusted well in the Gu family for a few days, listening to Gu Xi's intelligence and news.

A few more days passed like this, and finally the end of the year came.

Gu Che dressed up for a moment, and then spoke, "I'll go to the palace tomorrow to meet the emperor." ”

Gu Xi nodded, but Gu Che spoke again, "Now the ruling Jinwu? ”

"It's from the Gongsun family." Gu Xi responded.

"Hmm." Gu Che nodded, "Bring the troops tomorrow." ”R1152
