Xu Ji opened his eyes, Xue Jinyan was no longer on the bed, and the silver armor was also worn away, which made him relieved that he could avoid an awkward conversation, but after walking out of the door, everyone's eyes made him even more embarrassed.

Huang Tieniang doesn't keep it a secret, everyone knows what King Wu and his wife did last night, although they don't dare to joke about it, they all have a ridiculous smile on their faces.

Meng Seng Lun came from Xicheng, had been waiting for a while, and when he saw King Wu, he first said "congratulations", and then led to the side, and said in a low voice: "After taking power, it is best to go out of the room first." ”

Xu Ji was stunned for a moment, and then understood that he was a husband and should go out earlier than his newlywed wife to reflect the meaning of "male protagonist outside female protagonist", so he smiled, "Understood." Why is General Meng here? You should stay in the barracks and wait for my news. ”

Meng Seng Lun then got down to business, "The officers and soldiers are fighting back, last night the city gate was opened, and the descendant army swarmed in, no matter what plan the ruling party had, I am afraid it will be postponed for a while." ”

Xu Ji was shocked and hurriedly walked out, "When did it happen?" Why didn't anyone wake me up? ”

"The princess left someone to guard the door, and no outsiders were allowed to enter to disturb the government, although we can also break in, but we don't think it's necessary. As soon as King Ning heard the news, he immediately opened the city gate, and the ruler couldn't do anything. ”

"Hmm." Xu Ji was not angry, but his expression was grim, "Do you know where the officers and soldiers came from?" ”

"It should be a general, it is estimated that there are no chasing soldiers behind, and the subordinates are nostalgic for their hometown, so they led the troops to turn back."

Xu Ji understands the general's personality, Lou Wen likes to lead troops to go deeper, but there are conditions, one is to have sufficient supplies, a steady stream, no need for him to worry about food and grass, and the other is to have the certainty of victory, the enemy is frightened, there are signs of collapse.

Lou Wen was newly defeated, and lost the support of the imperial court, so he would never turn around and fight again.

The horses were all ready, and Xu Ji led a team of guards straight to the north city.

The road was crowded with the incarnation army that had not long entered the city, and Meng Shenglun and Song Xingju led their troops to open the way, barely able to ensure the passage of the ruling party.

Ning Baoguan took the initiative to open the city gate to accept the descending army, Huang Tieniang originally only wanted to allow his family to enter the city, but the descending army has never been a team that strictly obeys orders, as soon as the city gate is opened, no one can stop those soldiers who drag their families with their mouths, their reasons are very good, "I sent my family into the city, what's wrong?" ”

Ning Baoguan not only opened the city gate, but also led the remaining hundreds of his own soldiers out of the city, leaving some people to maintain order, and went straight to the direction of the officers and soldiers to investigate the enemy's situation.

"With King Ning here, you don't have to be afraid, we can still defeat the officers and soldiers." The people who entered the city all said good things about Ning Baoguan.

When Xu Ji rushed to Beicheng, Ning Baoguan had not yet returned, Liu Youzhong and Guo Shifeng had already arrived, standing on the city wall, looking at the outside frequently, seeing Xu Ji, and catching up at the same time.

"Definitely not a general." Xu Ji first answered the things that the two people were most concerned about.

Liu and Guo's faces softened slightly, and they invited Xu Ji aside, and Liu Youzhong said: "The news can't be fake, right?" The descending army entered the city, and the kings couldn't fight Xue Liujia together. ”

"It shouldn't be, if Xue Liujia had made a plan, he should have occupied the city gate at this time. He hasn't been there, has he? ”

Guo Shifeng said: "Xue Liujia didn't come, only ......"

Before he finished speaking, Huang Tieniang's voice came from afar, "Don't fight, don't grab, the officers and soldiers are not chasing after your buttocks!" ”

Guo Shifeng smiled bitterly: "Xue Liujia wants the princess to guard the city for him, all the kings are heroes, and they are actually subject to such characters." ”

Xu Ji motioned to Guo Shifeng to silence.

Huang Tieniang strode over with the female soldiers and said to Xu Ji: "The son-in-law is here, you don't have to worry, let alone be afraid, the officers and soldiers are coming, let's fight back as well." ”

"I'm not afraid."

"Haha, I said it wrong, I have heard of the deeds of my son-in-law, you are indeed not afraid of officers and soldiers."

"How many people haven't made it to town?" Xu Ji asked.

"That's more, I originally wanted the people to enter the city, you know ......" Huang Tieniang smiled, she wanted the people to pay taxes, "but their legs and feet were too slow, they were stopped behind, and the soldiers almost entered the city." Hey, it's this kind of time when you're most sincere, it's clear who brings your family and who doesn't. ”

"Where are the people who come into the city settled?"

"Let them find their own place, there are so many people, who can take care of it?"

Xu Ji said with a smile: "If you can't manage it, you have to take care of it, otherwise, the eastern capital will be in chaos, and it will give the officers and soldiers a chance." Mother-in-law works hard, go to rest first, and I will settle everyone. ”

Huang Tieniang had a good impression of her son-in-law, and nodded, "Okay, you can take care of it, I'm really tired, I haven't slept last night, just to make the two of you ......"

"Mother-in-law, please come with me." Xu Ji hurriedly interrupted.

Xu Ji wanted to send someone to send Huang Tieniang back to the palace, but she didn't agree, so she had to stay, "I will back up my son-in-law, who dares not to obey your orders, find me, I have a way to clean them up." ”

"Thank you, mother-in-law. What about the Golden Shake Girl? ”

Seeing her son-in-law ask about her daughter, Huang Tieniang was happy, "You know the benefits." Haha, Jin Shao is out of town and will be back soon. ”

Xu Ji sent Huang Tieniang to the barracks under the city, immediately summoned Wu soldiers, took Liu Youzhong and Guo Shifeng, unfurled the flag, returned to the street, and commanded the descendant army to evacuate to a place with few people, and at the same time looked for the leader, no matter how big or small, all of them had to join his team.

There are really people who are not convinced, and shout: "When I settle my family, I will come to you again." With so many things going on, how can you have spare time......"

Song Xingci immediately led his troops forward to press the leader down, and if he was not convinced, he tied him up and walked with a rope.

At the beginning, there were a lot of disputes, the Descending Army did not recognize King Wu, Xu Ji did not explain, did not mention that he had been accepted as a disciple by the Descending King and got the magic stick, not to mention that he had Huang Tieniang as a "backing", just blindly tough, asking the big and small leaders to obey orders, and several times the sword and soldiers faced each other, and he refused to back down.

The descending army first entered the eastern capital to avoid the officers and soldiers, the people's hearts were scattered, although the number was large, but they did not have the upper hand, Xu Ji insisted for a while, and there were fewer and fewer people who refused to obey his orders, and the leaders who were not convinced before came to admit their mistakes and plead, hoping to untie the ropes on their bodies.

Walking back and forth on the street, Xu Ji collected more than 300 big and small leaders, and many more leaders did not know where to go, and he did not look for them, and distributed flags to the leaders on the street, each with one hand, writing their place of origin, name and nickname, and warned them: "Before dark, I will check everywhere, and if the flag is lost or not on my body, I will be beheaded." ”

The leaders firmly grasped the flags assigned to them and nodded their heads.

Xu Ji assigned a Wu soldier to each leader as a guide, and then designated the whereabouts, most of them were in Xicheng, and Wu Bing was more familiar with that area.

The leader who got the guide and the position returned to the street with the flag, called his subordinates and his family members to go with him, only shouted a circle, and was not allowed to stay, and then there were latecomers who could ask the Wu Wang soldiers about the whereabouts of the leader.

There were fewer people on the streets, and Xu Ji began to assign the Incarnation Army to the east and south, and handed them over to Ma Wei and Shen Tan, who were more familiar with the streets and alleys of the Eastern Capital than him.

Liu Youzhong and Guo Shifeng didn't leave, they wanted to write on the banner, and the other recorded the whereabouts of the leader, and the paper was not enough, so they wrote it on the door panel facing the street, and then removed the door panel and carried it by the soldiers.

Meng Shenglun called more Wu soldiers to ensure that there were people available at all times around the ruling party.

People outside the city are still coming, there is some order, no longer a mess, the further back, the more poor and weak people there are, Xu Ji assigned them to Cao Shenxi to resettle.

It was almost noon, and the city gate was finally no longer crowded with people.

Many leaders came to collect the flags on their own, and when they saw King Wu, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed, because the news had spread that the King of the Descendants had passed the throne to his son-in-law, and King Wu was the new leader of the Descendants Army.

Xu Ji didn't need to argue, he focused on assigning soldiers into the city, and in the later stage, he intended to divide more in the east and south directions to relieve Shen Tan and Ma Wei of their vigilance.

Liu Youzhong and Guo Shifeng never raised any objections, and stayed by Xu Ji's side.

Ning Baoguan brought people back, still with the same cold expression, and said loudly: "A small group of officers and soldiers, don't be afraid, it's still outside the long fence, and you won't be able to arrive for a while." ”

The people in the streets burst into cheers, convinced that King Ning would be able to defeat the officers and soldiers again.

Ning Baoguan came to Xu Ji, jumped off the horse, his face was covered with frost and snow, and as soon as he opened his mouth, white gas came out of his mouth, "The long siege has been broken, and before dark, the officers and soldiers will come." ”

"Where are the officers and soldiers?" Xu Ji is most concerned about this matter.

"Under the banner of Kyushu, but I think the direction they are coming from should be Jizhou soldiers."

"Hey, Yecheng is here to reap the benefits of the fisherman?" Xu Ji got the answer he wanted, and his face was silent.

"Profit is in the Eastern Capital, no one wants to sit and receive." Ning Baoguan looked at the street, "The incarnation army placed by King Wu?" ”

"Well, I didn't keep anyone in Beicheng, it's more chaotic here."

"As long as it doesn't go to the palace."

"Not a single one."

Ning Baoguan looked at the imperial city, "Xue Liu'er is probably regretting it at the moment, and when the officers and soldiers arrive, he will come to beg you again." ”

"It is better to ask for others than for yourself. The kings should have met today to discuss what to do. ”

"Okay, still in the General's Mansion?"

"Hmm."

"I'll go later."

Liu Youzhong and Guo Shifeng said goodbye and went to invite their own lords, while Meng Shenglun went to invite the king of Shu to recruit him.

In addition to the king of the world hiding in the palace, the kings were not idle, King Ning went out of the city to check the enemy's situation, got the name of brave and fearless, King Wu placed those who entered the city, got the name of not chaos, Jin and Liang two kings arranged quickly and appropriately, incorporated the army, satisfied everyone, got the name of recruiting talents, the king of Shu personally greeted the defectors, gave priority to the placement of the soldiers' families, and got the name of benevolence.

In this way, a great opportunity for the incarnation of kings passed into the hands of kings.

When they gathered in the General's Mansion, no one mentioned Xue Liujia in the palace, and they were now facing a new threat.

"The most urgent thing is to choose a military lord and make the kings work together." Shen Tan first made a suggestion.

Xu Ji said: "Ning Wang was originally the coach, he can continue to serve, and he doesn't have to be re-elected." ”

Ning Bao knew that after the first gathering in the city, he could not get the forgiveness and support of King Jin, so he shook his head, "I can defend the city, I can be the vanguard of the kings, but I can't be the boss." Last time, he was reluctant to serve, and it was King Wu who came up with the idea. I recommend King Wu, he has a list of leaders of the Descended Army, and it is easier to command. ”

"King Wu can, the Jin army is willing to be the only king of Wu." Shen Tan also knew that he would not get Ning Baoguan's support.

Ma Wei and Gan Zhao had nothing to say, they both had a large number of soldiers of the Descending Army, and they had no suspicions about Xu Ji.

Xu Ji was no longer polite, accepted the position of military master, made a contract with the kings, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and forgot his new wife Xue Jinyan behind.
