Lu Guangda saw that this misunderstanding was getting deeper and deeper, and Xiao Yao was getting more and more angry, he was not good at words, he immediately knelt down with his legs, bowed to Xiao Yao and apologized: "Please General Xiao forgive Lu for his momentary gaffe just now, but Lu never thought of taking the forward brigade away from General Xiao and taking it for himself!" The reason why Lu was able to easily break through Xuzhou City yesterday was also because Gao Changgong's main force was led away by General Xiao's forward brigade, so this time we were able to successfully take Xuzhou and recover Huaibei, all of which were the credit of General Xiao. ”

"As a general of Chen Guo, Lu wants to make contributions to the country, Lu also admitted, I am in a hurry to pursue Gao Changgong, I do want to seek revenge on him, and I am ashamed, but Lu also has self-knowledge, knowing that he is not Gao Changgong's opponent, if he just takes his own troops to pursue Gao Changgong now, he will definitely be defeated by Gao Changgong again! That's why I just said that I wanted to borrow General Xiao's forward brigade, and then go to pursue Gao Changgong together! Although I said just now that I would lead the forward brigade to pursue Gao Changgong, what Lu meant was that as long as General Xiao's forward brigade could fight, even if Lu was asked to fight with him as an ordinary general, Lu would be willing! Lu Guangda said excitedly.

"Lu is a rough man, not good at words, it was true that he looked down on General Xiao a little because of General Xiao's youth, but now I admire General Xiao's command and combat ability, and I also admire General Xiao from the bottom of my heart! So Lu apologized to General Xiao for the gaffe just now! After speaking, Lu Guangda bowed deeply to Xiao Yao, and then continued to say sincerely: "If Xiao Yao is still angry, you can punish Lu at will, Lu will never have the slightest complaint against General Xiao!" ”

"Get up! General Lu is not only Shiro's elder, but also a veteran of Da Chen's reputation, but now he kneels in front of Shiro so much and makes such a big salute, which makes people see it, and I want to say that I Xiao Shilang is arrogant and domineering, and I don't respect the seniors in the army! Xiao Yao's tone softened a lot and said.

"I know that General Lu is eager for revenge, doesn't I, Xiao Shilang, want to break this Gao Changgong into pieces, thinking that the three thousand soldiers who died in my forward brigade will take revenge? But now it's a war, not a fight! The slightest carelessness may lead to the defeat of the army, and it is not you who will die alone, and there are many soldiers who follow behind you! I know that General Lu will think that I Xiao Yao is too cautious, but I am responsible for my 5,000 subordinates, and I promised them that our forward brigade will never suffer another defeat like Linying County! That's why I chose to play it safe and never take risks! Xiao Yao explained.

Lu understood that Lu was too anxious just now, and he was also carried away by the victory of Xuzhou City! When marching and fighting, we should indeed be cautious and cautious, and we must not be rash! Lu Guangda lowered his head and said ashamedly.

"So be it! Since Xuzhou has now been defeated by us, and General Lu is also the most senior general we have here, General Lu will write a good news and send it to Jinling as soon as possible, and tell Your Majesty the good news! It's also a New Year's gift from us to Your Majesty! And I want to ask Your Majesty to decide who will be the supreme commander here in Xuzhou as soon as possible! If His Majesty decides to appoint General Lu as the assassin of Xuzhou, then even if General Xu orders Shiro to immediately lead the forward brigade to pursue Gao Changgong, Shiro will definitely obey General Lu's orders! Xiao Yao said solemnly.

"Why did General Xiao say this! I, Lu Guangda, am only older than General Xiao, but I will never rely on the old to sell the old! When it comes to leading troops to fight and attacking cities and seeking land, I am far inferior to General Xiao! And if it weren't for General Xiao leading the forward brigade to reinforce me Lu Guangda this time, I believe that I would still be hiding in Renzhou City and not daring to come out, without General Xiao, how would I, Lu Guangda and the more than 10,000 soldiers, have a chance to make meritorious contributions! As I said just now, this time to take Xuzhou and recover Huaibei is the credit of General Xiao, Your Majesty did not cure me of the crime of dereliction of duty in Xuzhou's previous defeat, I am grateful, how can I hope that Your Majesty will let me serve in such an important position as the Xuzhou Assassin! Moreover, Xuzhou is a place that directly confronts the Qi State, and its strategic position is very important, so Xuzhou must be led by a brave and good general like General Xiao who fights and fights the Qi army. Lu Guangda immediately pushed and said.

"Shiro is young, and he has offended many people in the court, I'm afraid that His Majesty will not let me take such an important position as the Xuzhou Assassin!" Xiao Yao pretended to be modest and said.

"Xuzhou was defeated by General Xiao, and it is only natural that General Xiao will serve as the assassin of Xuzhou! Those officials in the DPRK and China who can only deceive me want to oppose it, so why didn't they go to Xuzhou by themselves? I, Lu Guangda, also have some connections in the court, and I can also say a few words in front of His Majesty, okay! I will write this good news, but I, Lu Guangda, will definitely make every effort to ask Your Majesty to appoint General Xiao as the assassin of Xuzhou, so that Shiro can justifiably manage the military and political affairs of Xuzhou! I believe that with the wisdom and thunder of the Xiao family, Xuzhou will be governed like an iron bucket, and it will never fall into the hands of a foreign country again! I'll go and write a good news, and then send someone to Jinling immediately and present it to Your Majesty!" Lu Guangda said righteously.

Looking at Lu Guangda's figure going out, the corners of Xiao Yao's mouth showed a smug smile.

。。。。。。

Chen Guotai was built for five years, on the first day of the first month, in the palace of Jinling City, the emperor Chen Ji led the hundred officials and Chen Shubao, who was rarely released from the grounding, after the sacrifice, when he was about to hold a banquet in the Taiji Hall to celebrate the New Year, a eunuch held an urgent letter, rushed into the Taiji Palace, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty! Good news! Good news from Xuzhou! Zhiwu General Lu Guangda came with good news in Xuzhou, Huaibei! On the 28th day of the lunar month, Xiao Yao, the general of Weilie, led his forward brigade to easily defeat the Qi army in Xiao County, and then led the army to successfully enter Xuzhou City and Xiapi County! In one fell swoop, we regained Xuzhou and Huaibei for our Dachen! ”

"What? Shiro, he successfully took Xuzhou? How can it be so fast? Didn't he say before that he had been in Xuyi County for more than ten days, and only arrived in Renzhou City a few days ago? In a few days, why did he take down the whole of Xuzhou now! Fast! Show me! Chen Xu said excitedly.

Hearing that Xiao Yao had taken Xuzhou and recovered Huaibei, this time the entire Taiji Hall exploded!

Some people were very excited and smiled, such as Chen Boxi and those officials in the Xingwang camp, Xiao Yao is a person who is a brother and brother to Xingwang, and now that he has made such a great achievement, the balance of the party struggle will naturally be tilted to Xingwang's side.

Some people are happy, and some people are worried, that is the person on the side of Prince Chen Shubao! Before Chen Shubao was grounded by Chen Xu for a month, which made everyone on his side feel a little bad, and now there is news that Xiao Yao has successfully recovered Xuzhou, so the emperor Chen Xu will naturally have a major reward for Xiao Yao, and the Xingwang camp, which has been suppressed before, will definitely take the opportunity to fight back!

However, in addition to them, there is another person who is a mixed bag, that is Xu Miao's grandfather, Xu Ling, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, of course he knows that his granddaughter is already Xiao Yao's person, and he used to hide with him every day in the general casino, and even His Majesty summoned him, Xiao Yao put it aside!

Coupled with the previous poetry conference, Xiao Yao suddenly became the poetry god of Chen Guo, which made Xu Ling, a great writer of Chen Guo, start to change his opinion of Xiao Yao a little, and now that Xiao Yao has made such a military exploit, the emperor will definitely reward Xiao Yao and let him take up an important position, then he can justifiably marry his granddaughter to Xiao Yao, a great talent who is both civil and military, so this makes Xu Ling also deeply gratified, and a little complacent!

But when he thought of Xiao Yao's arrogant and domineering character, and also participated in the party struggle and went against the prince, this made Xu Ling a little unhappy!
