The next day, King Rui had just arranged for people to scatter the poisonous powder developed by Yun Zheng on the hidden mountain road, and the soldiers who inquired about the news in front of him sent back the news that the Beiliang army was withdrawing from the pot and reducing the stove, and it seemed that they had plans to retreat.

This makes King Rui feel very strange, according to his understanding of Dugu Che, Dugu Che is not a person who easily admits defeat.

He did this suddenly, either something important happened to Bei Liang, or he set up an illusion to lure himself into the bait. In either case, you can't let your guard down.

However, after waiting for a few days, there was no follow-up action in Beiliang, and after sending people to investigate, he learned that something big had happened in the Beiliang Dynasty, and Dugu Che had to withdraw his troops, and sent envoys to sign a non-aggression pact with Da Zhou.

However, just when everyone thought that the war would subside, Bei Liang suddenly attacked, and 30,000 troops suddenly came to the city and surrounded Tang Tingguan.

At that time, in the military camp of Beiliang, Dugu Che was sitting in the big tent, quietly waiting for the outcome of the war.

"Your Majesty, the army of the Great Zhou Dynasty believes it, we have surrounded them now, as long as their grain and grass are cut off again, Tang Ting Pass will not be attacked." General Kuai said with a slight cursion of his lips.

As long as the Tang Ting Pass is broken, it will not be difficult for other cities. After all, the god of war of the Great Zhou is only one Rui King!

"Well, after so many days, I hope everything is not in vain." Dugu Che said wearing the robe of a lieutenant general.

In order to believe the spies of Da Zhou, he gave his horse to the little guy and rode away.

"Don't worry, the emperor will definitely be fooled, didn't King Ding say that he would arrange someone to help? Why haven't you done it yet? These Da Zhou people are really unreliable. General Kuai said angrily.

"Don't worry, wait and see, wait and see, before dawn tomorrow, if there is no movement, we will prepare to attack!" Dugu Che said in a deep voice.

"Yes." General Kuai said proudly.

At the beginning, he had the credit of supporting Dugu Che to ascend the throne, if he captured Tangting Pass again this time, then in the future, in the court, he will be above 10,000 people under one person, look at those sour civil officials, what else is there to say.

"Report to the ......, Your Majesty, a team of men and horses we sent was going to sneak attack from that hidden path, but I didn't expect that as soon as the people walked to that path, they all foamed at the mouth, and finally died of bleeding in their eyes." A soldier said hurriedly.

Hearing this, Dugu Che was suddenly startled, that trail is not easy to find, and he has also explored it, there is no problem, how can it be this time......

Immediately, Dugu Che figured out that King Rui must have also discovered the path, so he arranged a poison barrier in advance, and made all preparations.

"How many of the people you brought are still alive?" Dugu Che frowned.

"Back to the emperor, most of the people we brought with us are dead, and the rest are only two-thirds." The soldier shuddered.

"Hmph, what a wise king, he even used such despicable means." Dugu Che said with a fist hanging on the table.

"Your Majesty, the man sent to destroy their grain and grass has returned, but it's just ...... But they all broke their hands and feet, and threw them on the back of their horses, and the wise king said, "Let you do whatever tricks you have, and don't cower." ”

After finishing speaking, the inquiring soldier quietly glanced at Dugu Che who was seated, and saw Dugu Che's gloomy face, as if he could drip water.

"Your Majesty, what are we going to do next?" General Kuai is also anxious now, if he can't solve this matter smoothly, let alone his dream of being above 10,000 people under one person, it is still unknown whether he can go back alive this time.

"Order all the soldiers and horses, I want to fight with Zhao Yi." Dugu Che gritted his teeth.

"The emperor can't, we don't have as many people as Da Zhou now, and they still use poison, so it's better to think about it in the long run." Vice General Feng gave up his hand and persuaded.

"Yes, Your Majesty, there is a way, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, let's plan well." General Kuai also hurriedly agreed.

Dugu Che also knows very well that now there is a huge disparity in strength between him and King Rui, and he has lost so many soldiers and horses, if he wants to fight them, it will be tantamount to letting those soldiers die.

"Withdraw troops." Dugu Che said angrily.

This time, he is really going to withdraw his troops, and if he continues to entangle, I am afraid that someone will take advantage of his absence in the country to make trouble.

In the Great Zhou military camp, General Xu and General Gao sat side by side, Yun Zheng and Zhan Tianlin sat opposite, and King Rui sat on the main seat in the middle.

"Lord Wang, this time we can be said to be soldiers who surrender without a fight, right?" General Xu said with a smile.

"Sort of, I hope that after this time, that Dugu Che can settle down a bit." Rui Wang said lightly.

"That Dugu Che is ambitious, Beiliang is in a remote area, if you want your subjects to live well, expanding the territory is indeed the most effective way. So, he's sure to make a comeback. Yun Zheng said lightly.

"Hmph, they are located in a remote wilderness, so they will open up the wasteland and grow food by themselves, why do they want to attack our Great Zhou, why don't they dare to attack Nanchu?" General Gao pouted.

"Do you need to ask? Our Great Zhou is vast and vast, much better than that Nan Chu, so naturally he wants to attack us? General Xu said angrily.

"The most important thing is that there are no traitors in Southern Chu. Lord Wang, when you go back this time, don't be soft-hearted, not all people are worthy of giving him a chance to change. Yun Zheng said lightly.

"Yes, Lord Wang, Yun Xin will give birth in two months, and she can't be put in danger!" Zhan Tianlin echoed.

Hearing this, King Rui nodded noncommittally. In the past, he still thought about brotherhood and didn't want to drive people to a dead end, but now it seems that his tolerance can only make the other party more unscrupulous.

Three days later, Dugu Che withdrew his troops back to the capital of Beiliang, and also sent the prime minister of the DPRK and China to negotiate mutual non-aggression.

"I said Prime Minister Yuwen, you Beiliang are really shameless, you are the one who started the war, and now you want to solve it peacefully, how can there be such a cheap thing? General Ben must fight to your Beiliang's lair and make you uneasy. General Xu said loudly.

"General Xu, our majesty is also for the subjects of Beiliang to live a better life! If we are also rich in Beiliang, how can we expand our territory? Prime Minister Beiliang Yuwen said lightly.

"Bah, open up territory? It's really nice to say, you are violating the territory of our Great Zhou! General Gao echoed.

"The two generals don't have to say so badly, our countries are different, and each has its own master. You princes haven't said anything yet, so why are you so angry? Prime Minister Yuwen said without hurry.

This General Xu and General Gao are both people who lead troops to fight, and they are naturally not as good as those Wenchen's stomachs. I was choked up and speechless after a few words.

"Prime Minister Yuwen, if you Beiliang can keep the agreement, it will be good for the people of both countries. The treaty on this national letter, the king still needs to send it back to Kyoto, hand it over to the emperor to decide, and ask the prime minister to stay in the military camp of the Great Zhou for a few days and wait for good news. King Rui said lightly.

On the same day, King Rui sent his cronies to send Beiliang's credentials back to Kyoto.

The Great Zhou Emperor was very pleased to receive the letter of state, he was not willing to fight, this war, the Great Zhou treasury also lost a lot, and when the list of soldiers who died in the war came out, the treasury would have a lot of expenses, and Beiliang could automatically withdraw the army, which was already the best result.

Above the court, the Emperor of the Great Zhou told the news to the ministers, and arranged for Gu Taifu, Prime Minister Lin Cheng, and the grandfather of the old country to be responsible for this matter.

When King Ding learned that King Rui not only did not suffer defeat, but let Dugu Che withdraw his troops, he became even more anxious.

If King Rui returns to Beijing, the affairs of this court will not be certain. Therefore, he must not let King Rui come back.

That night, King Ding hurriedly invited Xiao Ziming to his mansion, they had to quickly discuss, how to deal with King Rui, otherwise when King Rui came back, not only King Ding, but even the Marquis of Ningguo's Mansion would suffer. And because they have this common purpose, they are the strongest alliance.

"Ziming, you also heard it today, King Rui not only did not lose, but easily solved the problem, we have to think about the way back!" King Ding said in a deep voice.

"That'...... What does the prince want to do? Xiao Ziming frowned.

"Kill him, only when he dies will we have a chance." King Ding said ruthlessly.

"If he returns to Beijing, he must be accompanied by someone, the people around King Rui are not bad in martial arts, and our people are afraid that it will not be so easy to kill him."

"What's so difficult about this, don't forget, there is a pregnant Gu Yunxin by his side, for Gu Yunxin, he will definitely not hurry, he will only let a few main generals lead the troops back to Beijing first, and then he will take Gu Yunxin slowly." King Dingyin said compassionately.

"Will he?" Xiao Ziming said incredulously. In his eyes, which woman is powerful and important? With power, are you still worried that there will be no women?

"Hahaha, Ziming, you still don't know about King Rui, look at him, for that Gu Yunxin, other women never look at it properly, don't you understand?" King Ding raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Oh? Is it? I think it was because he married Gu Yunxin that he had the support of Mrs. Gu and the Dingguo Mansion, no matter whether the Gu family and the Zhan family were on a team or not, as long as they had a family relationship, others would also classify them as a party. Xiao Ziming said lightly.

"That's right, don't forget, King Rui himself has military power, plus Lao Jiu and Lao Liu are loyal to him, and other courtiers only have a stammering part in him, so he cares so much about Gu Yunxin, that's because he really likes that woman." King Ding said lightly.

"Then what does the prince mean......" Xiao Ziming was a little confused, this king didn't say what he wanted to do, could it be that he wanted to say it?

If this is said by himself, once this matter comes out in the future, the king will push himself out to take the blame, and he has done such a thing more than once.

Cooperating with someone like King Ding is equivalent to seeking skin with a tiger, if they hadn't offended King Rui, they wouldn't have chosen to cooperate with such a person.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ziming stroked his forehead with one hand and stepped back step by step, King Ding looked very painful at him, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him sit down......
