Shi Chongxin knelt down in front of Wang Zhen and kowtowed a few times.

"Teacher, rest assured, I will not only assist Lu Yuan to unify Jiangnan, but also go all the way to the north, recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun, and fulfill your and Emperor Zhou's last wishes!"

After that, Shi Chongxin single-handedly managed the posterity of the king, during which Fan Yun sent people to mourn except for Fan Yun, the day of the funeral, it was particularly deserted.

After guarding the spirit for the king for seven days, Shi Chongxin buried him and went to Kaifeng.

Before going to Hangzhou, he decided to go to Kaifeng Mansion, first, to witness Chai Rong's ascension to the throne, and second, to inquire about the situation of the Liao State.

Two days later, he entered the largest city in the world.

Carefully observing the people's gods, their spirits were still high, and it seemed that they had not been greatly affected by this war, which made Shi Chongxin breathe a sigh of relief.

He found a restaurant and planned to inquire about some news.

After sitting down, he asked the shopkeeper who came to greet him, and according to the news that the shopkeeper inquired from the northern merchants, the Liao State had troops in Yingzhou, and he did not come immediately.

This made Shi Chongxin's expression even more dignified, according to his guess, the Khitans were rectifying their logistics, and when they were ready, they would attack with the power of thunder.

At that time, I am afraid it will be a battle for survival for the Zhou State.

He asked again about the date of Chai Rong's accession to the throne, and learned that he would ascend the throne three days later, so he planned to stay in Kaifeng for three days and then go south to Hui'an Mansion.

The next day, Shi Chongxin went to the wine shop as usual to inquire about the news, and just found a table to sit down, and the sound of conversation at the table next to him attracted his attention.

"Old Wu, have you heard that Hangzhou, the capital of Wu Yue Kingdom in the south of the Yangtze River, was defeated by the Hui'an Army of the Tang Kingdom!" Said the person sitting on the left.

The man on the right glared and said, "My nephew is doing business in Hui'an Mansion, how could I not know?" And you are mistaken, Hui'an Mansion is the same as Qingyuan, but it nominally belongs to the Tang State, but in fact, it has long been self-respecting and does not listen to the dispatch of the Tang State! ”

When Shi Chongxin heard this, his heart was like a river falling into the sea,

At the beginning, he had heard that the Hui'an army of the southern Tang State rebelled with the Qingyuan army, repelled the Tang army, divided one side, and then defeated the Wuyue State Muzhou.

It was also when he discussed this matter with Wang Zhen that he learned that Lu Yuan, the envoy of the Hui'an Army, turned out to be an old acquaintance of his teacher. The teacher admired Lu Yuan very much, saying that he loved the people like a son, did not follow the law, and would definitely be able to benefit the people.

Even Wang Zhen didn't expect that in just one year, he would become a prince of one side, which made him very happy.

From then on, Wang Zhen would also ask Shi Chongxin to help him inquire about the news of Hui'an Mansion.

How could I have thought that Lu Yuan was so strong that he even fought Hangzhou, I am afraid that the court of Zhou State will be alarmed!

Thinking of this, he decided to inquire more about the Liao State Qi Ng Newspaper as a step into his life when he took refuge in Lu Yuan.

Although there is a letter from the teacher, when the teacher and Lu Yuan met, the other party was only a county order, and people's hearts are changeable, so there is no guarantee that the letter will be useful.

……

Jin Wangfu.

Chai Rong will ascend the throne in two days, and according to the regulations, after Guo Wei's death, he must do his best to organize the funeral of the first emperor before he can ascend the throne.

But now that the national situation is difficult and foreign enemies are eyeing each other, Chai Rong decided to put aside the old system, according to Guo Wei's explanation, and after a simple funeral, he wore linen and filial piety, and began to deal with state affairs in the palace of the King of Jin.

While he was immersed in handling government affairs, a chamberlain suddenly walked in.

"Your Highness, the two prime ministers are here."

"Please."

After a while, two men dressed in scarlet mansions entered the study, one of whom was about thirty years old, with a graceful posture and a face like warm jade. This person is Wang Pu, who served as the secretary of the Zhongshu Order.

The other person had gray temples and was an old man, but he was in good spirits, walking vigorously, and showing vigorous energy. His name is Feng Dao, he has served for a total of nine emperors, and he has also called Liao Shizong a minister, and is known as a tumbler in the officialdom.

Because he is close to the people, promotes virtuous and virtuous, and is unparalleled in the world, no matter who is the emperor, he likes to reuse him.

"Is there anything wrong with you coming here?" Chai Rong asked.

"Your Highness, it's about Hui'an Mansion." Feng Dao said.

"Oh? Have you discussed it? ”

"Yes." Feng Dao said in a deep voice: "Now Wu Yueguo is no longer able to contain the Tang State, and the ministers think that Hui'an Mansion has defeated the Tang State, and now they occupy Hangzhou, and they can seal Lu Yuan as the king of Wu State, the deputy marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, and give him a golden book, and he will clamp down on the Tang State." ”

"And a book of gold?" Chai Rong frowned.

Wang Pu opened his mouth and said: "Your Highness, this is the minister's idea, now there are only three states in Hui'an Mansion, and they may not dare to fight with the Tang State, and now the Liao State is about to invade our country, in order to prevent the Tang State from taking advantage of the situation, only by putting Lu Yuan in a high position can the Tang State be jealous." ”

"Yes." Chai Rong nodded.

Compared with these Wenchen, he agreed with the views of the military generals, Li Chongjin and Zhao Kuangyin and others all felt that the Tang State was not to worry, not to mention the Hui'an Mansion, the real terrible enemy was in the north.

"Arrange these things." He waved his hand.

The two were ordered to retire.

When Feng Dao left, he suddenly spoke: "Your Highness, the old minister heard that you only slept for more than an hour last night, and I hope you will take care of your health." ”

Chai Rong waved his hand without raising his head, and he didn't know if he heard it.

Feng Dao sighed and didn't persuade any more. He and Wang Pu returned to the political hall and began to handle the matter of rewarding Hui'an Mansion.

The two were extremely efficient, and on the second day, several carriages headed for Hangzhou with the edict of Zhou Guo's reward.

However, before this, the news that Zhou Taizu Guo Wei was injured by an arrow and died first spread to Jiangnan.

……

Tang Kingdom, Imperial Palace.

In the study, Li Jing smiled, leaned on the dragon chair, and chanted loudly: "Dongfeng is not with Zhou Lang, Tongque Chun is deeply locked with Erqiao!" ”

"It seems that the Khitans are the east wind of the imperial brother." Li Jing then heard the song and knew the elegant meaning.

"Hahaha, those who know me, Jing Suiye!"

Li Hongyi's brows showed a worried look, and he said in a deep voice: "Father, if the Khitan people defeat the Zhou State, it will not be a good thing for our country. ”

In his opinion, the defeat of both Zhou and Khitan is the best result.

Li Jing's smile decreased a little, and he said lightly: "Do you think that my Tang ** team can't beat the Khitans?" ”

"Father, the Khitan cavalry is unparalleled in the world, and it is not so easy to deal with." Li Hongyi admonished.

"Brother Huang, what do you think?"

Li Jingsui pondered for a moment, and said with a slight smile: "Everyone in the world knows that the northern army is good at land warfare, and the southern army is good at water warfare, as long as we can seize the Central Plains, even if the war in the north is unfavorable, we can also defend the Yellow River." ”

"Well said!" Li Jing clapped his hands in praise, glanced at Li Hongyi, and said: "Hongyi, you can concentrate on the battle in the south against Wu Yueguo, and let General Liu be in charge of this battle in the north!" ”

Wang Kai suddenly interjected: "Your Majesty, news just came today that His Royal Highness King Yan's generals have defeated the Yijin army and have occupied Huzhou. ”

"Well, it's not bad." Li Jing casually complimented.

Li Jingda, the king of Qi, was puzzled: "Yijin Army? Weren't they wiped out by the Hui'an Army? ”

Wang Kai explained with a smile: "At the beginning, the Yijin army fled back to about 10,000 people, and later Qian Hongyu ordered Jia Gong to be the envoy of the festival to rebuild the Yijin army, but after the fall of Hangzhou, the Yijin army fled to Huzhou. ”

"How's Shinshu?" Li Jing asked.

Some time ago, Qingyuan suddenly sent an envoy to the Tang State to ask for peace, and Li Jing agreed at Li Jingsui's suggestion, and then he ordered the Anhua Army and the Zhaowu Army of Xinzhou to attack the Jianwu Army in a big way.

Wang Kai's face changed slightly, and he hesitated: "This ......"

"What, what's wrong?" Li Jing's face turned cold.

Li Hongyi said in a deep voice: "Father, our army is fighting smoothly in Xinzhou, but Lu Yuan of Hui'an Mansion wrote a letter to you, and he wants to mediate from it and let us and the Jian'an army quit." ”

"What is he, and dare to persuade me to quit?" Li Jing was furious and slapped the table hard.

Li Jingsui observed his words and looked at his expression, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Huang, Lu Yuan's use value is gone, if he really dares to go against us, he will be destroyed." ”

Li Jing sneered: "Order, withdraw all canonizations to Lu Yuan, and then transfer the Fenghua army to Xuanzhou to garrison, if Lu Yuan dares to meddle in our war against Xinzhou, then start a war against Hui'an Mansion!" ”

Since Tang Guo and Qingyuan withdrew their troops, the situation was very different, and Li Jing had more than 100,000 soldiers under him who could be called upon, so he naturally would not be polite to Lu Yuan.

"Your Majesty, if we are fighting against the Hui'an Army now, if there is a change in the north, we are only afraid that we will have to fight on three fronts." Wang Kai reminded.

Li Jing frowned, the third-line operation was extremely pressured on logistics, and the chaos in the Tang State some time ago greatly damaged the country's vitality, and deep down in his heart, he also knew very well that the Hui'an Army was not so easy to fight.

After pondering for a moment, he spoke: "Then let's do it, for the time being, don't pay attention to the Jianwu Army, and directly use troops against Quzhou, the territory in the south of Wu Yue Kingdom, I only need Quzhou, and then operate steadily and develop strength." ”

Li Hongyi opened his mouth and said: "Father, then the Jiang Y army wants to continue to attack Wu Yueguo?" ”

"Of course you have to fight! The north is different, I not only want Huzhou, Xiuzhou and Suzhou! ”

"But Xiuzhou has a town navy, and Suzhou has a Zhongwu army, if you only rely on the Jiang Y army, I'm afraid it won't be easy." Li Hongyi lowered his head and said.

"Brother Huang, Jiang Y's army is the elite of our army, Wu Yueguo is now divided by Hui'an Mansion, morale will inevitably drop greatly, and the combat power will also decline, my brother thinks that Jiang Y's army is enough to capture Suzhou and Xiuzhou." Li Jing hurriedly spoke.

The attack on Wu Yue was in charge of Li Hongyi, and he naturally did not want more troops to fall into his hands.

"What the imperial brother said is reasonable, so let's do it!" Li Jing made a decision on the case.
