The smoke from the other side of the city wall spread into the barracks in the wind, and the black smoke drifted in the air, and the whole sky seemed to be overcast...... Just like Guo Shao's mood at the moment.

The smell of these black smoke was strange, and Guo Shao had the illusion that he was not in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, but in the suburbs of a modern heavy industrial city. Because the smell in the air is similar to the smell of automobile and factory exhaust, mixed with the smell of burning plastic, which is very strange.

As soon as he walked to the gate of the Chinese army, he saw the emperor wearing a purple round-necked official robe coming out of it. If you don't know it, you may still think that you have met a big person, and the emperor's dress is not much different from the prime minister and minister around him. Then he was followed by a group of civil and military personnel.

Guo Shao hurriedly knelt down beside the road and shouted: "Guo Shao, the left wing of the Chenhu Jie Army, was ordered to lead the army to Huainan. Knock on Your Majesty, Your Majesty's holy life is boundless. ”

"Flat." Chai Rong replied casually. He obviously knows Guo Shao, I'm afraid the impression is not shallow.

So Guo Shao got up from the ground and waited for the emperor and a group of ministers to go first, there were several people he knew, such as Li Chongjin, who had seen Guo Shao more than once when he and the generals of the guards confirmed the transfer order together; There is also the tallest Shi Yanchao. Shi Yanchao is the guard Sima Budu Yu waiting, Guo Shao thought that he was the Colonel of Xiangdu, a lower level than him, so he cut behind Shi Yanchao and followed the group.

As soon as he left the camp gate, Chai Rong saw a pile of stones outside, so without saying a word, he walked up and picked up a large one, and walked towards the front quietly. Seeing this, the generals stepped forward to hold the stones, and Shi Yanchao picked the largest one. Guo Shao was helpless, and he also hugged the stone.

The scene instantly became very funny, and a large group of people became porters, carrying stones to a catapult and throwing them one after another.

Chai Rong turned his head to look at the Shouzhou City Tower for a while, and said: "I will go to Chuzhou tomorrow, and Li Chongjin will be deployed in Huainan; Shi Yanchao is meritorious, and it is appropriate to give Ma Bujun the deputy commander. Guo Shao......"

"The minister is here." Guo Shao hurriedly responded with his fists clenched, lowering his head, feeling very bad.

Chai Rong said: "You also have merit, I first awarded you Shouzhou to recruit envoys." If you can capture Shouzhou, I will reward you. ”

Emperor Chrysostom said, he didn't ask you if you wanted to. Guo Shao stubbornly said: "The minister's decree, thank Your Majesty Longen." ”

Why did this drudgery fall on me? If Shouzhou could be attacked, it would have been fought for more than a month from the end of May to July, and hundreds of thousands of people surrounded it at the time of the largest number...... Guo Shao thought that he could only surround the reinforcements on all sides, and then sit and wait for the people in the city to eat the food, and there was no way to surrender.

How much time does it take to starve each other to death?

The battle of Chuzhou seems to have been won by Zhao Kuangyin, and he should be in Chuzhou; Li Gu also said that the detective reported that there were not many garrisons in Yangzhou, the eastern capital of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and Zhao Kuangyin would marry to participate in the Battle of Yangzhou, right? This is simply a huge credit sent to the door, and maybe a few Southern Tang reinforcements can be annihilated in the field...... The field battle of the Zhou Dynasty army was already strong, and the people on Zhao Kuangyin's side were almost sure to win.

Compared with Yangzhou's fat, Guo Shao feels that Shouzhou is not even a bone, it is just a hard stone. Guo Shao is preparing to come to Huainan to make meritorious contributions, and the current situation is ...... He felt the deep malice of the world.

Chai Rong must have seen that he was not pleasing to his eyes, so he would send this kind of broken war to himself. Guo Shao is now not only disappointed in Huainan and his party, but also worried and scared...... Seeing Chai Rong, he couldn't help but reflect on his performance when he saved the queen in Chenzhou. At that time, his mental state was not good, and he was anxious, and he said some wrong things, especially when he expressed his loyalty to the queen.

Guo Shao couldn't help but recall what he said at that time again. Although those words sounded loyal, if Chai Rong liked the queen very much, he would definitely be jealous...... When a man cares about his woman and loves her more, the more possessive he will be, and he will not tolerate a little sand; When a man gives a woman freedom, it's not necessarily a good thing, because he thinks it doesn't matter, and he doesn't care about things anyway. An empress like the Fu family, Guo Shao felt that the emperor had no reason not to love her.

At this time, Guo Shao became more and more scared in his heart, if Chai Rong really wanted to kill himself, as long as he was unhappy in his heart, he would cut it with a word, would he still need any charges? Those small actions in Tokyo are also very dangerous, but Chai Rong can't know about it.

He had to think of a sentence: A companion is like a tiger. He was very scared, and he thought: You have to be careful when attacking Shouzhou, this place is really a tiger's den in Longtan.

The group inspected the neighborhood, and Chai Rong got on his horse and went back. Li Chongjin stayed, and seeing that the sun was setting, he said to Guo Shao: "I will take you to the camp in front, so that the military forces will recognize people in the future, and the deployment of Shouzhou to attack the city will be handed over to Guo Du's envoys." ”

Guo Shao thanked him, followed Shangfeng Li Chongjin, got on the horse and marched along the road together. Li Chongjin looks like he is in his thirties, with a medium build, thin and sturdy, an ordinary face with upright facial features, a raised nose, and a small beard on his mouth, he looks a little handsome in Guo Shao's aesthetics.

I didn't go far, and suddenly I saw a group of soldiers escorting a large group of people towards them, at least more than a hundred people. Li Chongjin drank and asked, and a military general said: "These people are 'soldiers' (soldiers who were eliminated in the rectification of the forbidden army and went to Tuntian for half cultivation and half fighting), we finally filled in a moat and let them take a ladder to attack the city, but after a while, they turned around and fled, afraid of military law and wanted to flee to the west without permission." The last general brought people back and sent them to the Chinese army to ask for orders to deal with them. ”

Li Chongjin was furious and said, "The deserters are all cowards!" If the official knows it, he will kill it, there is no need to go to the Chinese army, and the law will be corrected on the spot! ”

These people who were tied up were really not very strong, either they were relatively old, or they were short and not strong. A gray-haired old soldier "plopped" and knelt down on the road, choking up: "I have fought for most of my life, and I rarely escape, but there must be a way to die!" That place is so big, the Tang soldiers have already been ready to gather on it, not to mention that they can't attack it, even if they climb to the top of the city, they will be killed by a group of people! I didn't think I could climb up, as soon as I got up the ladder, black oil was poured on it, and the rocket was shot, and life and death were better than ...... The fierce fire oil and water can't be extinguished, and they can only be burned alive! ”

Guo Shao heard him say that he was miserable, and his appearance was weathered, and he could see at a glance that he had suffered a lot in his life, but now he was going to be beheaded by his own people with humiliation, and he suddenly felt compassion and was very uncomfortable.

Guo Shao stepped forward and saw that a soldier's clothes were still stained with that kind of black oil, so he sniffed a little with his finger in front of his nose...... Isn't this oil? No wonder the smell of exhaust fumes is smelled in the thick smoke.

He couldn't help but turn around and pleaded: "Li Du, can you forgive them once?" ”

Li Chongjin looked embarrassed and snorted coldly: "How can military law be child's play? ”

Guo Shao said: "You just give me a face, write down the crimes of these people, and let them rush to the front when they have the opportunity, and they can be regarded as a well-deserved death." ”

The old pawn and a group of people all fell to their knees when they heard this: "Give us another chance." ”

Li Chongjin no longer insisted, and said: "You are the envoy of Shouzhou, for your sake, these people are at your disposal!" However, Guo Du, we are military generals with troops, how can the benevolence of women be successful for the official family? Do it yourself! Li Chongjin shook his head.

Guo Shao was also terrified when he heard this.

……

Chai Rong had already arranged the affairs of Shouzhou and decided to rush to Chuzhou tonight in advance so as not to delay the fighter plane. He didn't think that Shouzhou could be captured, but he needed someone to constantly put pressure on Shouzhou City and lure reinforcements from the Southern Tang Dynasty to come to help, mainly to fight reinforcements.

Stressing a siege general is obviously not a good job, and it doesn't need to be very competent. The only people who can really make meritorious contributions are those generals who fought for reinforcements in the field, and those who attacked the weak links of the Southern Tang Dynasty...... For example, this time it is about to attack Yangzhou.

The errand of fighting Shouzhou got Guo Shao's head, Chai Rong did it, and remembered that Guo Shao had participated in the Battle of Gaoping and the Battle of Jinyang, and he did a good job in Houshu, but he felt a little sorry for him.

As for showing loyalty to the queen, Chai Rong felt faintly unhappy...... This is also the direct reason why he appointed Guo Shaoshou Prefecture to recruit envoys; But Chai Rong doesn't care, the Fu family has already had countless times with Li Shouzhen's son Chenghuan, who has been a wife, and he still cares about her being so tight.

Thinking about it, the queen can't have the mind to do anything that is out of character and identity, and the courtiers and generals below are even less courageous. Just because Guo Shao's performance in front of the queen in Chenzhou was better than himself, Chai Rong was a little dissatisfied with Guo Shao, but he didn't think he had anything wrong.

Let the queen manage the harem can make Chai Rong worry-free, and Chai Rong also felt that she couldn't completely let her toss, so he installed a eunuch in the Inner Servant Province to star. It's not to keep an eye on the Fu family, it's mainly to spy on other concubines, those concubines who can give birth to themselves. Chai Rong felt that this was enough, because the concubines would also fight for favor and intrigue for jealousy, staring at each other.

If Guo Shao can work hard in Shouzhou City, Chai Rong will not plan to embarrass him; After all, the people in the court said that when he attacked Shu, he was very talented in using soldiers. Chai Rong needs such a person, and he will not abandon it for the sake of a little careful thinking out of nothing. Guo Shao didn't do anything to disgrace the emperor, and Chai Rong thought that his senses were all prejudices about his personal likes and dislikes...... If it is completely according to preference, Chai Rong feels that what he dislikes even more is Li Chongjin.

Chai Rong sometimes speculated that Li Chongjin was the one who could actually threaten his power.

Even Li Chongjin can be reused, Chai Rong is too lazy to worry about Guo Shao...... After so many years, Chai Rong's wife and concubine and children were killed, and he may have been humiliated before he died, if he had cared about these things, he would have died of anger; Moreover, Chai Rong grew up in this era, knowing that power and force are the most important, and the loser will encounter more unbearable insults, such as the stone of the Jin Dynasty.
