Hui'an Mansion originally did not have a pavilion post, in order to entertain the envoys, a public residence was specially selected as a pavilion post.

Zhang Wande has been going smoothly lately, he and his righteous son Xiao Shilang are both workaholics, and in Hui'an Mansion, people like them are the easiest to get promoted.

Not to mention himself, he was promoted to a sixth-rank pusher, and what made him even happier was that his son Xiao Shilang was promoted to a four-star captain, and then he was promoted to a fifth-rank general.

Thanks to Yu Xun's battle of Fuchunjiang, Xiao Shilang, as an adjutant, also got a great credit, and this battle is the most talked about by the people of Hui'an Mansion, Xiao Shilang is now becoming more and more famous and popular with the people.

However, there are also many colleagues who are jealous, thinking that he is just lucky and happened to enter Yu Xun's army, Zhang Wande scoffed at this, in his opinion, luck will only be reserved for those who are prepared.

He is now getting higher and higher, and the circles he enters and exits are all high-level officials in Hui'an Mansion, and the people he meets are all scholars and businessmen, and his rough words and deeds often arouse strange eyes.

However, Zhang Wande didn't care at all, he still maintained his rough style, in his opinion, he didn't need to cater to these guys, as long as he was down-to-earth and appreciated by Lu Jieshuai.

He also recently heard that the envoys of various countries had come to Hui'an Mansion, and he thought that it was none of his business, but who knew that he had been appointed as a hospitality envoy and was responsible for receiving envoys from various countries, but since the envoys were assigned from above, he naturally had to do a good job.

In the newly renovated Hui'an Mansion Post House, Zhang Wande walked in with a few civil officials, sat down in the lobby, and shouted: "Go and invite those envoys to come over." ”

One of the clerks was surprised, "My lord, let them come along?" I'm afraid that this will be rude, so it's better for us to visit in person. ”

"Damn, are you a hostess or am I a hostess, if you are told to go, you will go, long-winded fart!"

"Yes." The civil servant secretly scolded a few words and turned his head.

Not long after, Xu Shilian, the envoy of the Tang State, Yang Lian, the envoy of the Wu Yue Kingdom, Zheng Xing, the envoy of Chizhou, and Zhong Fei, the envoy of the Qingyuan, gathered in the lobby.

After seeing several other envoys, Xu Shilian frowned and asked, "This lord, this envoy is here on behalf of His Majesty the Tang Emperor, I don't know when Lu Fu Yin of Hui'an Mansion will be willing to meet." ”

He only called Fu Yin, not Lu Jieshuai, obviously did not recognize Lu Yuan's official position as the envoy of Jiedu.

"Our family is very busy, and he is not in Hui'an City now, but he sent me to receive you, if you have anything to say to Lu Jieshuai, just tell me!" Zhang Wande said with a smile.

"Since Lu Fuyin hasn't come back, the envoy will wait a few more days, and if he comes back, please let me know and leave." Xu Shilian said that he was about to leave the lobby.

Yang Lian suddenly laughed and said: "Obviously, he came to form an alliance with Lu Jieshuai, but Tang Envoy is so arrogant, don't you think it's ridiculous?" ”

"It's better than your Wu Yueguo being beaten down by others, but you came to ask for peace." Xu Shilian said coldly.

Yang Lian's face remained unchanged, and he said with a smile: "What the Tang envoy said is right, the combat power of the Hui'an army is stronger than my country imagined, so my lord does intend to eliminate the conflict with the Hui'an army, form an alliance, and share the foreign enemy!" ”

He deliberately stated the purpose of the alliance, just to hide his deeper purpose, as long as the Hui'an Mansion relaxed his vigilance against him, he could find an opportunity to poach Yu Xun.

Hearing Wu Yueguo's purpose, Xuan Fei finally couldn't sit still, and said: "Wu Yueguo obviously wants to return to Muzhou, but what kind of alliance is true, it's really funny, I'm afraid that when the situation in Hui'an Mansion is not good, the first one to show his teeth and claws to them is you!" ”

Yang Lian frowned secretly, he had heard that Qingyuan had been sneaky recently, and he might invade Wu Yue, judging from the attitude of Qingyuan's envoys today, I am afraid that they are really going to tear their faces, if this is the case, I am afraid that the situation in Wu Yueguo is really not good.

At this time, Zheng Xing from Chizhou hurriedly said: "Everyone, we should cooperate together to fight against Tang Guo now!" Qingyuan envoy, haven't you Qingyuan forgotten the original agreement? ”

Compared to the other envoys, he was much more tender, and from his eager expression, everyone guessed that the situation in Chizhou was not very good.

Xuan Fei ignored Zheng Xing, their Qingyuan's current strategic direction had shifted to Wu Yueguo, so there was no need to focus on Tang Guo.

Yang Lian also ignored him, their Wu Yue's situation is not good now, and they are no longer able to manage Chizhou, which is far away.

Xu Shilian had a look of pity in his eyes, and said lightly: "Brother Tai, your Chizhou has been surrounded on all sides, and there is no way to live, if I were you, I would surrender to the Tang State as soon as possible, and maybe I could change my life." ”

Zheng Xing said in a low voice: "If I surrender, it is not a dead end. ”

Hearing his words, everyone was taken aback, there seemed to be a shake in his words, who would have thought that Chizhou would send such a straw bale, could it be that Lu Weiyi really has no one available?

Xuan Fei's expression moved, if Lu Weiyi's situation was really so dangerous at the moment, his generals would definitely start to think about the way back, and he immediately had an idea in his heart, but how to make this idea come true, he needed to plan carefully.

While the envoys of all parties were arguing at the Hui'an Mansion, a life-and-death battle was going on in Chizhou.

The north slope of Tongling.

A group of men and horses were standing at the top of the slope, waiting for the movement below.

It didn't take long for a group of men and horses to pass by, the formation of the team was out of order, and they were fleeing rapidly, followed by a cavalry in black clothes and black armor, their faces were expressionless, like the god of death, constantly harvesting the lives of the fleeing soldiers.

Lu Weiyi clenched his teeth, this team to lure the enemy was over.

The strategy of luring the enemy is not so easy and simple, and the grasp of the timing is extremely important.

Especially when the enemy army is strong, the team that lures the enemy is likely to become bait and be eaten by others.

Lu Weiyi is still calm, forbearance is his greatest advantage, and he can get everything today by relying on these two words.

When the enemy army had almost passed, he finally gave the order to attack, and Ning Guojun rushed down the mountain like a tiger.

With the momentum of the charge from above, the enemy army fell into a brief confusion, although the enemy army quickly resumed its formation, but because they were cut off by the Ning Guo army in front and behind, the front army fell into encirclement, and the situation was very unfavorable.

The battle lasted for several hours, and seeing that the front army could not be destroyed, but the enemy's rear army was about to break through the barrier, Lu Weiyi decisively issued the order to retreat.

In this battle, the Ning army annihilated more than 8,000 Tang troops, but due to the heavy losses of the troops responsible for luring the enemy, the Ning Guo army also lost a total of more than 6,000 people, which could only be regarded as a small victory.

The troops he brought to meet the Tang army this time were only 30,000 people, and the rest of the horses were used to defend other directions in Chizhou, and now they have lost more than 6,000 people, leaving only more than 20,000 people.

After returning to the camp on the outskirts of Tongling City for a day of repairs, the sentry horse reported that the enemy army had penetrated deep into Chizhou again and was approaching Tongling City.

He's waiting for news.

Since the Tang army decided to attack Chizhou, he often received news of the Tang army's march, with the information of the main general and the route of the march, he was still a little suspicious at first, but after verification, he found that the news was accurate.

Although he did not know who provided the information, he would use it as long as it was beneficial to him, and this ambush was formulated by him after obtaining the enemy's marching route.

Not long after, a personal soldier walked in, handed over a note and said, "Jie Shuai, there is news again." ”

Lu Weiyi hurriedly took it, opened it quickly, and only after a few glances, his face suddenly turned pale, and the note explained that the Tang Army had drawn 20,000 reinforcements from the Jianwu Army, and it had marched to Chizhou a few days ago, and it would join the forbidden army in a few days.

Lu Weiyi took out the long sword at his waist and slammed it into the ground, fuck, why did Tang Jun target Lao Tzu, why didn't he go to Hui'an Mansion? He was afraid of becoming the main target of the Tang Army, so he avoided Chizhou.

What he didn't know was that the more he backed down, the more others thought he was a bully. Recently, there was a discussion in the Tang Dynasty, because the Hui'an army defeated the Tang Guo'an army, defeated the Chizhou Ningguo army, and recently defeated Muzhou, all the ministers felt that the Hui'an army was a hard stone.

In particular, the civil officials headed by Li Jingsui all felt that they should not attack Hui'an Mansion for the time being, and that they should first solve Chizhou, which is why Xu Shilian sent an envoy to Hui'an Mansion.

Compared with Hui'an Mansion, Chizhou has become a soft persimmon, and Tang Guo's eyes naturally shifted to it.
