In Shouchun, the Han army of more than 100,000 people is still stationed here, preparing for war and digesting the fruits of victory. In Shouchun alone, the Northern Han Dynasty defeated the Southern Tang Dynasty before and after 150,000 people, and seized a lot of food and military armor.

At the same time of reorganizing the army, do not forget to settle the people, implement the Han system, and practice the Han law. Of course, the division of troops to attack the cities is also in progress. In the area along the river, Pan Mei led the army south, and Zhang Yongde was ordered by the king to launch an attack on Shu and Heerzhou, and according to his report, it was progressing smoothly.

The Han army was unstoppable with the momentum of a great victory, while the Tang army was afraid of the battle and was shrinking its forces to the south.

Liu Chengyou sent Murong Yanzhao in advance, and led the Longjie Horse Army and the Longqi Army to the south with about 10,000 cavalry, and coordinated the attack on the Southern Tang Dynasty along Jiangzhou County. In the past three or two days, either fearing the strength of the Han army, or being touched by the Han Emperor's "Letter to the Huainan Army and the People", Huainan counties and towns have successively surrendered, opened their doors, and welcomed the Han army to settle in.

The capture of Yangzhou and the resolution of the Tang lord to seek peace, the news of the two parties successively reached Liu Chengyou's side.

Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Sirang led the army south, and the situation of the target Yangzhou was reported by Guo Rong in the previous military report. In this regard, Liu Chengyou did not feel that there was anything wrong, and even kept expectations. But after the good news came, I couldn't help but be a little surprised, and secretly sighed that it was Zhao Da.

In this regard, Liu Chengyou immediately ordered to inform the whole army of Huai, and at the same time, the edict was sent to Zhao Kuangyin as the assassin of Yangzhou, temporarily serving the military state affairs, and Chen Sirang as the inspection envoy of Yangtai, which was regarded as the land of Yang and Tai, which was temporarily handed over to the two.

As for the Southern Tang Dynasty's request for peace, there were not so many surprises, if there was anything unexpected, it was that the Northern Han secret agents in Jinling had not yet made a force, and the Southern Tang Dynasty had its own courtiers to propose it.

In view of this, Liu Chengyou simply stayed in Shouchun for one more day, waiting for Tang envoy Sun Sheng to come north.

"Your Majesty, the captured puppet Tang Huainan should be sent to Huang Fuhui and ask for an audience!" Shouchun Prefecture, Liu Chengyou alone considered the next national strategy, Zhang Dejun said.

After the destruction of Shouchun City, Huang Fuhui, who was captured in the Battle of Lai'an, was sent by Guo Rong to send soldiers to the camp and dedicated to Liu Chengyou. After all, nominally, he is the commander of the Tang Army of Huainan Zhulu, but Liu Chengyou has no interest in this Huangfu Hui.

"Oh?" At this time, he took the initiative to ask to see, and finally raised his interest, and said: "If you have a little leisure, then you might as well meet." I just don't know what this pseudo-Tang famous general is talking about? ”

"Probably begging for mercy, or please surrender!" Zhang Dejun guessed.

Before he was ready, Huang Fuhui was brought to the hall, and two guards were guarded behind, guarding against the veteran. Looking at this person, his face was quite upright, his face was old, his mood was slightly depressed, and he was wounded a lot.

Waving his hand and motioning for the guards to step back, Liu Chengyou asked, "You are Huang Fuhui?" It has been famous for a long time, and I want to see me, if there is anything, I can try to say it, and I can agree as appropriate! ”

Huang Fuhui also looked at Liu Chengyou, his old eyes lit up slightly, and he was quite emotional when he saw the dignity of the Emperor of Han. didn't answer, Huang Fuhui said: "I'm exhausted and tired, I don't know if I can sit for a while?" ”

"No excuses!" Hearing his words, Liu Chengyou waved his hand and motioned for Zhang Dejun to give him a short tie.

Huang Fuhui didn't care, sat straight on the ground, took a few breaths, behaved a little pretentiously, looked at Liu Chengyou, and said, "I don't know if I can lie down temporarily?" ”

After speaking, without waiting for Liu Chengyou to speak, he lay down on his own, lying horizontally in the hall, as if there was a kind of wandering chic.

Seeing his performance, Zhang Dejun immediately scolded: "Presumptuous! Your defeated general dared to be so disrespectful in front of the emperor of heaven! ”

Liu Chengyou was a little interested, and always felt that this veteran was a little pretending, and he didn't know where to learn the "famous general". Stretched out his hand to stop Zhang Dejun and watched his performance.

But seeing that the Son of Han Tianzi was safely seated, like watching a monkey play, Huang Fuhui finally couldn't lie down, propped up his upper body, sat cross-legged, and said: "Your Majesty may think that I am asking to see you in order to beg for mercy from Your Majesty, and I want to save my life?" ”

"Isn't it?" Liu Chengyou replied casually.

"That's underestimating the old man!" Huang Fuhui sighed with emotion: "The old man is here to see with his own eyes what the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty who defeated me looks like, and sure enough, the gods are like the sun, majestic and unspeakably expensive!" ”

Liu Chengyou couldn't help but smile and responded lightly: "The one who defeated you was my Han Huaidong Economic Envoy, Guo Rong!" ”

"If there is no Han Emperor, how can there be a Han teacher?" Huang Fuhui said: "The defeat of Lai'an is not because I don't do my best to do national affairs. It was Guo Rong, who was too cunning, and the elite soldiers of the Han army were unstoppable, and I was exhausted, so I was captured. When I was young, I also saw the strength of the Khitans, and I was not afraid to fight them. However, looking at the strong soldiers of the Han Dynasty today, there are few soldiers and horses in the world who can match them! Our dynasty has not been at war with the Central Plains for many years, and it is not surprising that we do not know the strength of the northern soldiers, and they have been defeated repeatedly! ”

"I and the Han army, I don't need you to be taken prisoner, to be recognized, to praise!" Liu Chengyou still looks impassive.

Seeing this, Huang Fuhui smiled happily, sat like that, and arched his hand: "When the old man was in the Tang Dynasty, there were often people who were frivolous with the northern generals and when they were young, and they despised me and doubted me, so they tried to throw themselves into the river to Mingzhi. Today, I have seen the Son of Heaven in the Central Plains, and I have no regrets in my heart, and those who ask for it are just a short dagger to fulfill my last loyalty. ”

Hearing this, he found that Huang Fuhui's eyes were full of calmness. Liu Chengyou looked at him seriously, as if he was a little puzzled and worried about his intentions.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to doubt that the general of the defeated army has nothing else to ask for!" Huang Fuhui said: "Could it be that the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty still spares a dagger?" ”

In the face of his invitation, Liu Chengyou raised his hand, pointed directly at a guard, and ordered: "Take Huang Fuhui down, find the imperial doctor, and treat his injuries first!" ”

Listening to Liu Chengyou's instructions, Huang Fuhui didn't say anything more, his eyes were calm, his expression was calm, and he followed the guards. But within a quarter of an hour, the guards hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty, the emperor has committed suicide!" ”

"Huh?" Liu Chengyou was suddenly surprised, the zhu pen in his hand paused, and then put it down directly, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"The little one took Huang Fuhui to find the imperial medical injury, but he hasn't diagnosed it yet, this guy took advantage of my unpreparedness and hit the wall and died!"

"This horseman, rude in front of the emperor, spoke wildly, His Majesty does not ask about his guilt, but treats his injuries, he is so unappreciative, bent on seeking death, so uninteresting!" Zhang Dejun said: "This person behaves strangely, but I don't know what the purpose of this behavior is before and after?" ”

Liu Chengyou thought for a while, smiled suddenly, and said, "This Huangfu general, I want to honor his loyalty, but I am also embarrassed for him." However, this person is really not afraid of death, and it is indeed beyond my expectations! ”

"This old man, what a cunning mind!" Zhang Dejun seemed to be a little indignant and difficult to control himself.

Liu Chengyou said: "That's it, since the person is dead, do I still have to worry about the dead?" Let's bury it! ”

"Your Majesty is benevolent!" Zhang Dejun said respectfully.

Shaking his head, Liu Chengyou thought about it again, recalling Huang Fuhui's words and deeds, although he didn't care, but there was always a feeling of being touched, but Huang Fuhui was using his life.

Thinking about it, this Huang Fuhui is also a wonderful person.
