After receiving Chen Xu's report of victory, Ma Yun did not immediately convene the generals to announce the good news to everyone. Eighty-one middle school? Textual network?

Without war, it is definitely not a good thing to beat too many drums. The IQ and gossip association ability of the ancients were not much worse than those of modern people. If it is a victory and everything is going well, then the Jujiang drum will definitely not be beaten two or three times a day. If you knock too much, the soldiers below can't help but ask, what happened? If you say every time that it is because of where and where you have won a major victory, isn't there a suspicion that "there are no three hundred taels of silver here"? Doesn't this affect the morale of the military? Anyway, ordinary soldiers don't know about Huyang.

Therefore, the next day, Ma Yun routinely summoned the generals and told them the news. The military text is very simple, but fortunately Zhao Pu passed by Huyang, the specific situation is very detailed, and he was immediately ordered to introduce the specific situation to the generals. When Chen Yu learned of the situation, he was extremely bold, and he piled up a lot of flammable dry firewood and sesame oil on the roofs and corners of the private houses and military barracks in Huyang Town. When Ma Quanjie attacked Huyang, he pretended to be not vigilant enough, and retreated in a hurry. Not long after, Huyang became a sea of fire, and Ma Quanjie had no way to escape, so he killed himself.

After that, Zhao Pu also briefly introduced the situation of Zhu Yuan's department, after Zhu Yuan arrived in Suizhou, Zhang Mingye of Suizhou Assassin Shi defended himself according to the city, Zhu Yuan ignored him, after the handsome soldiers captured a few small counties, he immediately returned to the south of Anzhou, and fought with Anzhou Assassin Shi Wan in Jiyang, Zhu Yuan feigned defeat and was unable to support it, and took Guanghua Town in Suizhou, preparing to return to Xiangzhou, this situation was known to Zhang Mingye, he led troops from Suizhou to intercept in order to grab credit, but instead fell into Zhu Yuan's ambush, Zhu Yuan defeated Zhang Mingye first, Then he defeated the pursuing Wan Qian and captured Suizhou and Anzhou. After Suizhou and Anzhou were conquered, Fuzhou has been completely separated from the Central Plains, at this time the water army trained Lin Renzhao to send troops to Yuezhou, cut off the Yangtze River, Zhu Yuan sent troops into Fuzhou, Fuzhou assassin Wang Shenyi had no choice but to surrender.

"Congratulations to the king, Ma Quanjie's entire army has been wiped out, our army has no worries, if General Cao Bin acts quickly, maybe except for Fangcheng, Tangzhou will all fall into our hands. When General Zhu Yuan's army arrives in Fangcheng, we will have enough strength to fight the Han army. Liu Yantao said with a smile.

Ma Yun was also extremely happy, and he said to Li Xiang: "Mr. Li, you drafted the edict for the widow and rewarded Zhu Yuan and Chen Xu." Reward Zhu Yuanbu and Xiangzhou soldiers and horses. Let them move quickly and cooperate with our army to capture Tangzhou. ”

Li Xiang nodded, and when he heard the last sentence, he frowned lightly and asked: "If General Zhu Yuan also leads his troops north and joins forces with us, may I ask the king, what are the chances of winning a battle with the Han army?" ”

Ma Yun was stunned for a moment and said: "The Han army is brave and has a lot of troops, I'm afraid it will be five or five at most." What does the sir mean ... Ma Yun somewhat understood what Li Xiang meant, but his doubts became bigger and bigger.

Liu Yantao on the side said: "What Li Sima means, I don't quite understand, if General Zhu Yuan comes, our strength will increase greatly, even if we negotiate peace, we will have more chips than now." Wouldn't this be more able to persecute the Han army and achieve the goal of our army? ”

"Your Majesty, the situation has reached this point. Whether it is our army or the Han army on the opposite side, they are actually walking a tightrope, and if they are not careful, there may be a big war. Therefore, the minister suggested that Zhu Yuan should stay in Suizhou, while Chen Zhi was still stationed in Huyang, and did not change the current strength of our army in Dengzhou and Tangzhou, so that the Han army could settle down and negotiate. Li Xiang said.

When it is critical, it is necessary to refrain from it. Ma Yun turned his head and said to Liu Yantao kindly: "The old general is good at fighting, and few people know very well. However, at the moment, if we fight to the death with the Han army, judging by our hearts, we may not be able to win, and even if we win, I am afraid that we will not be able to continue the Northern Expedition, and we will cheapen others in vain. Old general, in such a good situation, our army suddenly stood still, and the widow was afraid that the soldiers would complain. ”

Liu Yantao's expression moved, and he saluted: "The last general, respect the order." For a while, he was very emotional, yesterday, he asked for the withdrawal of troops, but the king of Chu did not blame, and still trusted Yujia. Today he made another not very good suggestion, and the king of Chu did not blame him for anything, but was kind and comforted him as if he were a family. Liu Yantao's heart was sour, the trust of the king of Chu could only be smeared with liver and brain, and the spring reciprocated. As for Li Sima, he is indeed a bold and knowledgeable character. Drawing a sword to kill himself to blackmail the king of Chu, such boldness, such loyalty, it is really admirable.

Ma Yun and the others were discussing this matter, and suddenly Li Ergou walked to the door of the tent and reported: "Yu Dashuai, there are two people outside the gate who claim to be old friends of Bianjing, asking to meet the king." ”

Bianjing's old friends? Ma Yun looked at Zhao Pu suspiciously and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"One is called Guo Rong, and the other is Zhao Kuangyin."

What the? Ma Yun was taken aback, he quickly stood up and said, "Hurry up, please... Wait, wait for the widow to pick it up in person. "What kind of wind actually blew these two brothers, the purpose of their coming, needless to say, must be for the sake of peace.

----

Outside the gate, Guo Rong was dressed in green clothes, Zhao Kuangyin was dressed in white, the two of them stood with their hands in their hands, talking and laughing softly, their demeanor was comfortable and natural, and they were indescribably free and handsome. There was a small guy behind the two of them, leading their mounts for the two. There were only three of them. I don't know if the ignorant are fearless, or if they are confident and don't care about their own safety at all.

Ma Yun walked a few steps quickly and said, "Third brother, seventh brother, don't come unharmed." "A thought suddenly came to my mind: If I kill these two men in the camp... So... Of course, this thought was just a flash, and he killed people for no reason, and the Han army on the opposite side disagreed, and it is estimated that his wife Ziying did not agree either. After all, Zhao Kuangyin is her own brother.

Zhao Kuangyin squinted at Ma Yun and didn't speak, Guo Rong deliberately blamed: "Twelfth brother, I really didn't expect that the fifth prince who was down-and-out back then was actually the prince of Chu who is powerful in China today, and the brother you deceived is so bitter." After saying that, he couldn't help laughing, and his words were full of approval.

Ma Yun chuckled, covered up his embarrassment, pulled Guo Rong's arm and said, "Third brother, seventh brother, please come in, let's get drunk today." He still didn't dare to call Zhao Kuangyin's brother-in-law arrogantly.

When he arrived at the handsome tent and sat down, Guo Rong glanced around, the generals in the tent, and said with a smile: "Twelfth brother, why don't you introduce Jing Chu heroes to your brother?" ”

Ma Yun nodded and said: "Third brother, Brother Zhao, you know, this is Mr. Li Xiang, Mr. Li, who can be described as my great Chu's military advisor, who has repeatedly offered strange schemes, no less than Zhuge Liang." This is my veteran general in Chuzhong, General Liu Yantao Liu, General Liu had made great achievements in Lingnan back then, and Lao Lian was nothing more than that. This is General Peng Shigao Peng... Ma Yun introduced them one by one, Guo Rong also nodded frequently, responding to words like Jiu Yang, while Zhao Kuangyin squinted his eyes slightly, did not speak, and looked like he was not angry.

After the introduction, Ma Yun said: "Generals, this General Guo and General Zhao are the heroes who were fortunate to meet when the widow went to the Central Plains, and the world-famous white-clothed army was trained by these two single-handedly. ”

The generals naturally knew what Ma Yun meant, and hurriedly praised Guo Rong and the others, Guo Wei said: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." But looking at Zhao Kuangyin standing proudly, how can he dare not be humble, it is completely a worthy posture.

Shen Tu couldn't bear it, took a step, and said to Ma Yun: "King, the last general often hears that General Zhao is very good at kung fu, but it has always been rare to meet, and I don't know if it's nonsense or deliberately spreading rumors." I happened to see you today, and the last general wanted to ask General Zhao for two tricks. ”

The fierce generals of the Chu army, Zhang Wenbiao and Shentu Congjian, have always been characters who walk sideways in the Chu army, and they can stand Zhao Kuangyin's attitude, Shentu Congjian couldn't help jumping out to challenge one or two at the moment.

Ma Yun reprimanded: "Shen Tu still hasn't retreated, today is the day when I get together with my third brother and seventh brother, how can I use knives and guns?" When someone comes, a banquet is held, and the widow and the third brother and the seventh brother are drunk and resting, and all the generals will accompany them. ”

When the wine was half-drunk, Guo Rongcai said with emotion: "Back in the Confucian Temple, you and my brother vowed to save the world and appease the people. ”

Ma Yun didn't answer, Zhao Pu the wicked person sued first, and said on the side: "The Han army came down with momentum for no reason, and my Dachu was forced to fight back, if it wasn't for the intention of the upper country to requisit, how could our army dare to use swords and soldiers?" ”

Zhao Pu pushed 365 and put the responsibility on the head of the Han army, as if the Han army was an invader, but the Chu State was forced to fight back. Zhao Kuangyin squinted at Zhao Pu, and secretly scolded this person for being shameless. Guo Rong laughed and said, "I see, it's a big misunderstanding." His Majesty conformed to the will of heaven, ascended the throne in Taiyuan, along the way the officials and the people, all bowed to both sides of the official road, and entered Bianjing without blood, this time I heard that the Chu army invaded our Han, so I had to send a large army to come. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a misunderstanding. ”

Guo Rong's fluttering "misunderstanding" pushed away Zhao Pu's unreasonable accusation. If there are steps down, and if you don't go down, that's stupid. Ma Yun was about to speak, but Zhao Pu took it again and said with a smile: "Since it was a misunderstanding, yesterday's battle was just over." However, Tangzhou Thorn Shi Ma Quanjie is more like asking our army to decide to fight to the death, he sneaked into Huyang, I don't know how General Guo explained this? ”

"Haha, as long as Chu and Han negotiate peace, three hundred miles of Tongbai Mountain, where is it not a smooth road for the Chu army to return south?" Guo Rong did not answer Zhao Pu's words, but gently pulled the subject back, and put forward the conditions of the Han army, return to Dengzhou, and let you go south.

"Hahaha, doesn't General Guo still know the news of Ma Quanjie's defeat and death?" Zhao Pu said with a smile.
