The weather is cold, the smoke curls in the barracks, and the time for dinner is not there, so the fire is not for cooking, but to create warm areas, small but thoughtful, that can save the lives of the family.

Xu Ji looked at it for a moment and said to Tang Weitian: "Where there is more smoke, where there is more chaos." ”

Tang Weitian stepped on the stirrup and stood upright, "It must be that the Descendant Army has the most cooking smoke and a lot of people dragging their families." ”

"The people are innocent, and it is useless in wartime, so we should keep them away from this place, and the state has its own city to accommodate them."

"Hehe, the governor of the capital is not like the ruling king, and like the former Xu Gongzi, the king will not let the people leave, those people are his...... His ......"

"Walls that move."

"That's right, the Incarnation King still wants to use them to block the attack of the officers and soldiers."

"Why did the people die willingly, but not flee?"

"Where are you going? No, there are also people who run, at most three days, and come back, at least they can eat in the incarnation army, and they run outside, either starving to death, or being killed by officers and soldiers as thieves. ”

Xu Ji didn't speak again, and drove the horse forward, Tang Weitian was used to life and death at a young age, and muttered: "I don't know if there are any living people in the Shunzi family, it is estimated that it is enough, Shunzi said that after he died, those boots were left to me, alas, I am afraid that I will be picked up by some bastard......"

The scale of the military camp of the king of Shu Ganzhao is much smaller than that of the descending army, but the cooking smoke is not less, and the smoke covers the entire sky, looking from a distance, it does not look like a military camp, but like a lively temporary market.

The six kings had agreed to meet here, but they did not trust each other, and since last night they had sent their own men to check on each side to make sure that the number of guards brought by each side was equal.

Xue Liujia insisted that his guards must be twice as large as others, claiming: "I am the ancestral king, who dares to be on an equal footing with me?" Moreover, the King of Jin, the King of Liang, and the King of Wu are not part of our Descending Army, so I don't worry. ”

Song Xingqi rode up to meet him, and bowed his hand to Xu Ji: "There is no problem in the camp, but please wait a while, we can't be the first to enter the camp." ”

The Wu people attach great importance to the etiquette of respect and humility, and whether outsiders admit it or not, they always think that the Wu country is superior.

"Okay." Xu Ji didn't want to disobey Song Xingju's kindness.

Song Xingju turned around and ran back to the camp of the King of Shu and continued to check the situation.

Tang Weitian misunderstood Song Xingju's meaning, and asked suspiciously: "The Metropolitan Governor can be regarded as the king, why can't he be the first to enter?" What are the benefits of being at the bottom of the line? ”

"The courtier is proud of the first, and the emperor is honored later, which means that others wait for him, and he does not wait for others." Xu Ji explained.

"Oh, that's what it means, but it's really cold outside."

A quarter of an hour later, Song Xingci did not return, and another group of people galloped in from other directions on horseback, waving flags and spears.

The soldiers of the Wu army were shocked, thinking that they had been attacked, and they drew their swords and raised their spears, and Xu Ji said loudly: "The old man is visiting, and you are panicking." ”

The person who came was Shen Tan, the king of Jin, who galloped to the front and stopped, and said with a smile on the horse: "Shibei should be impressed on the third day, and the fourth brother is the king, which is gratifying." ”

"The state is wide and the people are abundant, the soldiers of Jinyang are strong and the horses are strong, and the third brother has to be called the king of Jin, which is well deserved."

"Haha." Shen Tan suddenly put away his smile, drove forward, staggered with Xu Ji, and whispered: "The eldest brother was bought by the imperial court, and it is a great shame for my Shen family to kill his father for glory, and the state is the last person to fight, and he will also take revenge." A few days ago, I wronged the fourth brother, and I offended a lot, I hope the fourth brother will not take it to heart. ”

"There is a debtor and a debtor, Shen Da is dead, how can I be angry?"

Shen Tan nodded with a smile and stretched out a hand, "You and I have both been crowned kings, but the brotherly love remains the same, life and death are shared, and wealth and wealth are shared." ”

"For example, it is like one body of four limbs, advancing and retreating together, fighting and making peace together."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the soldiers on both sides felt that they had an important friend in their eyes, and there was a little more friendliness in each other's eyes.

"Didn't the eldest brother come along?" Xu Ji asked.

"I told him to stay in the camp. The third brother must have treated the second brother very well, and he didn't want to go back to me. ”

Xu Ji left Tan Wusense, never let go, and said with a smile: "The second brother is in a hurry to go back, I was persuaded to drink last night, drank too much, and has not woken up yet, I said don't worry, let him sleep enough." ”

"There's no hurry." Shen Tan smiled, "How about we go into the camp together?" ”

"Advance and retreat together." Xu Ji said with a smile.

The two teams drove side by side to the camp of the King of Shu, chatting all the way, talking about the happy place, and laughing loudly.

Shen Tan pointed in the direction of Luoyang with a horsewhip, and said angrily: "The faint king has no way, so he lost his deer, but it is a pity that the people suffer greatly and are often displaced." The eastern capital is a famous city in the world, suffering from harsh government for a long time, my fourth brother and I have lived in Luoyang for a long time, and we should save the people from fire and water. ”

"Since we call ourselves the 'Righteous Army', of course it is incumbent upon us."

Song Xingci rode up to meet him, nodded to Xu Ji, didn't say anything, and joined the team.

The first person to enter the camp was Wu Yue Wang Ning Baoguan, he didn't care about the rules, and he was an acquaintance with Gan Zhao, so he entered as soon as he patted his horse.

At the gate of the camp, King Ma Wei of Liang happened to arrive, and when the three kings met, they inevitably exchanged pleasantries, and Ma Wei treated the two with no difference, reserved and polite.

Xu Ji understood that Ma Wei would not be happy to see him and King Jin coming side by side, but at this time, there were some things that could not be explained in person, and he could not speak in private, so he had to wait for Ma Wei to figure it out by himself.

Gan Zhao greeted each other in the tent, and it was another greeting, Shen Tan and Gan Zhao met for the first time, and they had to say a few more words.

Among the people, only Xu Ji knew that Gan Zhao had the heart to be the king, in the eyes of others, Gan Zhao was an honest man who was pushed out by the incarnated king, and he was very polite when he saw anyone, and he did not hesitate to depreciate his identity to give the first salute, but he still couldn't get rid of the habit of a small official.

In the tent, Ning Baoguan was already sitting down and drinking.

The order of the kings' seats is quite laborious, and the dispute is long, or the weak give in, but on the surface there is another reason: the king of the world has the highest status, so he naturally wants to sit on the throne, and the king of Shu occupies the interests of the lord, accompanies the king of the world, and does not dare to tie, and gives up a table, Ning Baoguan is the first in the right hand with the elder, and Xu Ji is down, and Shen Tan is the first in the left hand as a guest, and the slightly older Ma Wei is below.

Each person only brought an entourage, Luo Hanqi stood with his head held high behind King Wu Yue, holding a knife in one hand, his eyes were wide open, like a statue of the king in the temple, not angry and arrogant.

"Hmm." Ning Baoguan nodded aimlessly, and continued to drink, bowl after bowl, just like drinking water.

The kings sat down, and only Gan Zhao stood and said a few words.

The incarnation king was delayed and unable to talk about business, and the scene gradually became a little awkward.

Ning Baoguan didn't know how many bowls of wine he drank, and finally stopped, turned his head to Xu Ji and said, "Do you want me to kill Zhang Wenbi?" ”

"I have no grievances with Zhang Wenbi, why did King Ning say this?" Xu Ji said with a smile.

"Zhang Wenbi is a useless scholar, but you gave him a few carts of silver money and cloth, so that everyone looks red, I don't kill him, my subordinates will run to you to invite rewards."

"Zhang Wenbi followed me along Funan Road, and he was rewarded for his merits. Everyone is a righteous army, join forces to fight against Tiancheng, never dig each other's corners, follow the order of King Ning, the people under King Ning, Wu Jun will not accept any of them, and the people of the kings, Wu Jun will do the same. ”

Ning Baoguan's eyes turned, looking at several people in the tent, Ma Wei didn't wait to meet his eyes, he had already lowered his head, he was a little afraid of Ning Baoguan, he was self-motivated in his heart before he came, and when he really met, he was still timid.

"Hey, what a king." Ning Baoguan's gaze fell on Shen Tan, the king of Jin on the opposite side, "Today is the six kings joining forces, and tomorrow I don't know how many kings will come out, just keep joining forces, you will have to be busy until next spring, and I don't know if the imperial court has the patience to wait." ”

Shen Tan was not afraid, looked back calmly, and said with a smile: "Everything sprouts, at the beginning they are all young shoots, and after a while, they can distinguish the high and low, or a few inches of weeds, or a towering tree. ”

"King Jin can speak." Ning Baoguan said coldly, "After attacking the Eastern Capital, you will know who is the grass and who is the tree." ”

"That's right." Shen Tan picked up the wine bowl, "I respect King Ning." ”

Ning Baoguan picked up the wine bowl and drank, still unsatisfied, and said loudly: "Everyone drinks, Xue Liu'er loves to put on a shelf, I don't know when I will be able to arrive, let's be happy first, Ganzhao, you don't have to stand, everyone has hands and feet, you don't need to take care of it, sit down and drink." ”

Gan Zhao smiled and sat down in his place.

Ning Baoguan poured wine, raised a bowl, drank it all, and then looked at the other four kings and supervised them to drink, "King Liang let go, just a bowl of wine, and a drop left is not a big husband." ”

Ma Wei hurriedly poured it all into his stomach, became a little impatient, and coughed twice after drinking.

Ning Baoguan poured another bowl of wine, "The rebellion is not a joke, I don't know how many people will die in the attack on Dongdu, what I drink now is wine, and what will be shed in the future is blood, everyone sitting together is fate, don't care who dies, I will toast three bowls on your grave." ”

Shen Tan raised the bowl and said, "Each other." ”

Gan Zhao smiled and said: "King Ning is all sad to say, isn't it good to live?" ”

Ning hugged Guan and glanced at him, "If you're afraid of being discouraged, why rebel?" The officers and men are not vegetarians, and I fought a battle with the officers and men in the south, and I did not hide it, and I barely won the battle by five times the number, and I even resorted to a lot of tricks in the middle. In my opinion, after joining forces, there must be ten times as many before they can fight with the officers and soldiers. ”

Ning Baoguan easily dominated the scene, Xu Ji, Ma Wei, and Gan Zhao did not compete with him, but Shen Tan was not convinced, and said with a smile: "The Jin army is okay, it can fight one against one, but it is not afraid of officers and soldiers." ”

"King Liang can also ......" Ma Wei wanted to interject, Ning Baoguan raised his hand to stop him from continuing, staring at Shen Tan, "King Jin is a big tree himself, very good, the twentieth month of Layue, let me open my eyes." ”

"I don't dare to be a big tree, it's a bush of dwarf trees. I am the vanguard of the rebel army, and I should be the first to break a wall to boost morale. Ning Wangxiang is known for his bravery and fame, I don't know how many barriers to break and how many officers and soldiers to kill? Shen Tan said.

"You choose, and the rest is mine." Ning hugged the pass.

The curtain was opened, and the incarnation king finally arrived, everyone else was an entourage, he had to bring two, and he didn't let people report when he came, he broke in, full armor, holding the "Kill the Emperor and Destroy the Emperor Stick" in his arms, without greeting anyone, strode towards the main seat, and suddenly turned his head to look at it halfway.

Tang Weitian stood behind Xu Ji, also holding a much simpler wooden stick, and nodded with a smile at the magic stick in the arms of the king of the world.

Xue Liujia was stunned for a moment, did not attack on the spot, came to the main seat, turned to face the kings, looked serious, pondered for a moment, and said: "it, whoever breaks through the Eastern Capital first will be the king of the world, and he will be on an equal footing with me." ”
