Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Rumors

"How is Your Majesty's body?" Yang Chengzu asked in a low voice.

Zhang Xuan's gaze and Yang Chengzu's gaze touched lightly, and Zhang Xuan knew that he couldn't deceive Luo Rucai. Because Zhang Xuan saw a very positive gaze from Yang Chengzu's gaze. Although his sentence is a question. But there is a very positive tone.

The plan is not a matter of speculation.

Zhang Xuan knew that he couldn't deceive him, so he just whispered: "Ru Guogong, there are some things that should not be mentioned. ”

Yang Chengzu nodded, he was indeed not speculating.

Yang Chengzu has been with Luo Rucai for a long time than Zhang Xuan, and it can be said that Yang Chengzu knows a lot more about Luo Rucai than Zhang Xuan.

Moreover, Yang Chengzu is loyal to Luo Rucai, and Luo Rucai is worthy of these old brothers. Yang Chengzu knew that with Luo Rucai's temper, in such a big battle, Luo Rucai would never stay more than a hundred miles away and sit and watch the success or failure. Even though at the time of the decisive battle at Hukou, Luo Rucai said that he would let Zhang Xuan command, but in fact, Luo Rucai's army formation was in the rear army, and it was not far from the battlefield at all. If Luo Rucai feels the need, he can take over the command at any time.

What made Yang Chengzu even more sure was the soldiers brought by Zhang Xuan.

Most of them are Luo Rucai's Chinese army.

These people have been following Luo Rucai. It is Luo Rucai's old book. Under normal circumstances, Luo Rucai would never hand it over to others, and Yicheng is almost an empty city now, with only more than 10,000 soldiers holding on. It can be said that Luo Rucai has lost any ability to intervene on the battlefield.

What is Luo Rucai's nickname?

It's Cao Cao.

Many people's nicknames have never been taken wrong.

In Luo Rucai's heart, he has never been so generous and righteous on the outside. His heart was twisted and turned, Zhang Xuan didn't know a lot, in his eyes, Luo Ru was the elder who carried him. But an old man like Yang Chengzu knew how Luo Rucai was willing to put himself in such a situation.

Unless, something happened.

Otherwise, it would definitely be Luo Rucai who came to Xiangyang. Moreover, Luo Rucai's illness has been lingering for several years, and it is no secret among the high-level people. It is also reasonable for Yang Chengzu to have such a conjecture.

Listening to Zhang Xuan's acquiescence, Yang Chengzu sighed slightly, and said in a low voice: "I know, but how about Yicheng, the battle of Xiangyang, I will definitely win." ”

Yang Chengzu knew that whether Luo Ru was seriously ill and could not be a director, or he had passed away, he would not mourn. Yang Chengzu knew that the most important thing for him now was to repel the Qing army, not to care about these things. It's just that he couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart, and said secretly: "The future is the era of young people." Then his eyes glanced at Zhang Xuan.

Zhang Xuan saw that Yang Chengzu's mood was stable, no different from before, and his heart was a little more stable. But then Zhang Xuan thought: "If Ru Guogong can think of it, then others can also think of it." ”

Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan's heart tightened.

It's not that Zhang Xuan is nervous, but that this news is too important.

Half of the remnants of the camp gathered in Xiangyang City were based on Luo Rucai's points. Even among the Xia army, Luo Rucai's prestige is unmatched. It is by no means comparable to Zhang Xuan and Luo Yulong. If the news leaks out, it will be very unfavorable to Xia Jun.

"It seems that this news can't be hidden for long." Zhang Xuan secretly said in his heart: "I can only solve it quickly." ”

However, the decision to quickly resolve the war was originally beneficial to the Qing court, not to the Xia army. But whether it is the speculation of outsiders or how long Luo Rucai's body will be supported, these changes make Zhang Xuan unable to drag it out any longer.

It's just that between this strategic change, I just don't know how many lives.

When Zhang Xuan was annoyed by the leaked news. In Wuchang City, there are also people who speculate about this.

"Prince." Qian Qianyi said: "In the past few days, all the documents of Your Majesty have been drafted by Her Royal Highness the Princess of Qin. I thought it was ----"

Luo Yulong said: "Why? ”

Luo Yulong came to Wuchang from Nanjing, immediately took over the defense of Wuchang City, and controlled this so-called Xijing here.

Qian Qianyi also has a title of Xijing left-behind on his head, but in fact, he is just an errand for the prefect of Wuchang. Because of the Ministry of Rites' Shangshu and his status as a scholar, he is naturally the leader of Wuchang civil officials, and most of the things that support the army to fight fall into the hands of Qian Qianyi.

Qian Qianyi did not do as well as Zhang Qianyi. But it's not bad, although the front line is a little tight, but there should be no shortage of logistics.

It's just that Luo Yulong just came, and he was about to ask Qian Qianyi how the war was going. After all, now the whole world is paying attention to Xiangyang City. It can be said that under the city of Xiangyang, it is related to the growth and decline of the Great Xia and the Qing Dynasty. And Luo Yulong himself is more concerned about war than political affairs, and the first question to ask is naturally this, but he doesn't want Qian Qianyi to say that the first thing is not this.

Qian Qianyi said in a low voice: "Yicheng has changed. ”

"Nonsense." Luo Yulong snorted coldly and said: "Alone in front of my father, I often draft documents on my behalf, but I just write it, and the princess of Qin State serves in front of the emperor, these are just duties." ”

Qian Qianyi said: "How can the princess be compared to His Royal Highness? ”

"Needless to say." Luo Yulong sneered and said, "What do you want to say?" ”

Qian Qianyi's words turned around in his mouth, and he was about to add oil and vinegar to the words, but he withdrew half of them, and said honestly: "After Your Majesty's personal conquest, after the Hanyang Festival, he lived in a simple place, and rarely saw ministers. Of course, the minister knows that the princess and His Majesty have a deep brother and sister relationship. But Princess Qin and Zheng Guogong, one controls the forbidden center, and the other controls the army, if there is an accident, His Royal Highness can deal with it. ”

Luo Yulong sneered and said: "If the imperial sister really has this heart, she will not let Lone sit in Xijing." Needless to say, just talk about how the war went. ”

Although Luo Yulong deliberately avoided this question, Qian Qianyi was moved in his heart, he knew that Luo Yulong already had something in his heart, and he didn't dare to say more, lest he say too much. Just told the situation 1510.

Luo Yulong didn't say anything after hearing this, so he sent Qian Qianyi out.

He sat alone on the chair, looked up at the beam in the shadows, and said secretly in his heart: "Zhang Xuan, Zhang Xuan, what are you going to let me do?" ”

For a while, Luo Yulong's heart was intertwined with countless tastes. A burst of fire came out of nowhere, slamming a cup on the ground, breaking it apart and causing a ruckus.

It's not just Qian Qianyi's words, Luo Yulong looked at the battle arrangement, and knew that the hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line were already in the hands of Zhang Xuan, and Luo Rucai would never do this, there must be a problem. However, he also believes in Luo Yujiao.

He believed that Luo Yujiao would never hide the news from him.

But that alone made him uncomfortable.

First, when the old father is sick, he can hide it from anyone, but he should not hide it from him, who is a son.

Secondly. He is the prince of Great Xia, and he is the heir of Cao Ying. From the chaos of the army, Luo Yulong, who was killed with a knife and a shot, couldn't be more realistic, and he knew one thing too well, that is, the Son of Heaven was strong and strong. Cao Ying's greatest power is not his six Shangshu and His Royal Highness the Prince, but the power to control Cao Ying's main force.

That's the most powerful thing.

And this power is now in Zhang Xuan's hands.

Let Luo Yulong, who is a son, deal with himself?

And how to treat Zhang Xuan.

It is not to say that the merits are not rewarded, but at this moment, Luo Yulong feels very troubled by Zhang Xuan's influence in the army and the DPRK. The Runing faction led by Zhang Zhen in the court, Zhang Xuan in the army was originally the head of one party, if he won a big victory this time, wouldn't he be the first person in the army?

But this position, Luo Yulong definitely didn't want to give it to others.

"I have to figure it out." Luo Yulong thought about it, and finally decided, and immediately summoned Wang Long and asked him to bring more than 10,000 people to supervise the supplies to Yicheng in the north. No matter how far the situation develops now, he will install a trustworthy person next to Luo Rucai.

Wang Lung grew up with him since childhood, not a brother is better than a brother, and at one time he wanted Wang Lung to be his brother-in-law. If it weren't for Zhang Xuan's sudden appearance, maybe it would have been. At this moment, among his new generals, only Wang Lung can be of great use.

The situation in the rear could not be transmitted to the front for a while. Zhang Xuan didn't want to think about it, because a big war was imminent.
