Guo Shifeng led more than 20 cars, he shared one with Xu Ji, and the rest were all goods, escorted by hundreds of guards, and the momentum was huge.

From the eastern capital to Yizhou, Xiangyang is the only way to go, Xu Ji persuaded Guo Shifeng to stay outside the city for three days to meet the heroes, at least the road will be more convenient in the future.

Outside the city of Xiangyang, the east, north, and south of the three directions are full of military camps, large or small, far or near, all of them are allied forces from all walks of life, a total of seventeen, most of them are robbers from Jingzhou and Luozhou, invited by Song Zhuzhu's father-in-law, Ma Lao, to come to cheer - really just cheering, after coming to ask for food from all sides, but did not participate in the first battle, and can always find all kinds of excuses.

Xu Ji and Guo Shifeng went to visit Chen Aicai first.

After several hesitations, Chen Yi transferred all the southern troops to Xiangyang, known as 100,000 people, which is a well-deserved main force, and now the people guarding the city are the generals of the southern army, but he is also the same as the heroes, preferring to camp in dangerous places dozens of miles away from the city, so as not to be trapped in the city and have no way to escape.

The king of Xiangdong was also in the southern military camp, and under his stern refusal, he was never promoted to the emperor, but he engraved a royal seal, and all orders of the southern army must be stamped with this seal.

Of course, Wang Yin is in the hands of Chen Aicai.

Although there were more reinforcements, Chen Aicai's face was not happy, he met two envoys in the Chinese army tent, and as soon as they met, he said: "Does King Ning want to personally lead his troops to Xiangyang?" ”

Guo Shifeng stepped forward and said: "In Xia Guo Shifeng, under the command of King Ning, he served as a general of the military division, and I have seen Lord Mushou. What Lord Mu Shou said was right, King Ning was about to lead an army of 200,000 to Xiangyang in person to fight against the He Rong people with the heroes. ”

"Hey, 200,000, that's a lot. Two days ago, a general Zong Ming Yizong came, is it really King Ning's subordinates? ”

"Exactly, General Zong......"

"Zong Mingyi's entire army was wiped out and he died on the battlefield, but it was a pity that he was a brave general...... Is this how Ning Jun plays? ”

Guo Shifeng said proudly: "General Zong was ordered to fight to the death, there was no advance or retreat, and the Ning army was indeed fighting like this. ”

Chen Yicai laughed twice, and then let out a long breath, "Don't tell me, Ning Baoguan won't come back, and after Zong Mingyi, not a single soldier of the Ning army will come." Ning Baoguan didn't understand the situation in Xiangyang at all, thinking that it was just a matter of daring to fight or not daring to fight, and as soon as Zong Mingyi died, Ning Baoguan's courage was not so big. ”

Chen Yicai called the name of King Ning, and Guo Shifeng had to fight-for-tat, "May I ask Chen Mushou, what was the Southern Army doing when General Zong Mingyi led his troops to fight with the Bingzhou Army?" What are the heroes doing? ”

Chen Yicai's face changed slightly.

Guo Shifeng said: "This is really a question of daring or not, the heroes claim to be aiding, but they are all stationed outside the city, away from the enemy, although there are brave generals, but no one follows." Chen Mushou can rest assured, King Ning will come, and he will definitely defeat the state army for you, and the heroes can sit back and enjoy their success. ”

Chen Yicai was furious and sneered: "You are a messenger, I don't care about you, but I have seen a lot of people who can talk big, and when Ning Wangzhen leads his troops and dares to fight with the Bingzhou army, you can take advantage of your tongue again." Oh, please remind King Ning that there are not only people from Bingzhou, but also people from Jizhou and Qinzhou, with a total of at least 150,000, of course, it is still not as good as King Ning's '200,000' army. ”

"When there are soldiers from Hunan and Guangzhou in the army, King Ning will be a little worried."

"I'm not far away." Chen was sick and directly evicted customers.

Xu Ji didn't say a word.

When he arrived outside the tent, Guo Shifeng seemed to be nothing, and said with a smile: "Since you have come here, there is someone who must be seen." ”

Chen was angry, and the two could not stay in the camp, so they could only go out first, and then ask the soldiers of the Southern Army to report on their behalf.

The camp of the southern army is close to the mountains and rivers, and heavy troops are sent to guard the avenue leading to the river, Guo Shifeng boarded the car and looked at it from afar, and said to Xu Ji: "Although I don't know how to arrange troops, I can also see that the southern army seems to have no fighting spirit." ”

Xu Ji stood beside the car and looked in the direction of Xiangyang City, which was too far away, and there were mountains and forests blocking it, so he couldn't see anything, "The southern army hopes to attract more reinforcements." ”

"That's why Chen Yi used the agitation method on me?"

Xu Ji laughed twice, they all knew that Chen Yicai was not really angry, nor did he really want to offend Ning Baoguan, but he was worried that after Zong Mingyi was defeated, Ning Baoguan would retreat in the face of difficulties, so he used the method of agitation, and Guo Shifeng used the same trick.

"It's a pity that General Zong was defeated." Xu Jidao.

"If King Ning doesn't send troops to Xiangyang, Zong Mingyi will be defeated worthless, if King Ning comes, and immediately starts a war, then the prestige of Ning's army starts from Zong Mingyi, and he died unjustly."

Someone from the camp came galloping on horseback.

The person who came was a middle-aged man, with a red face shining and a smile on his face, kind and enthusiastic, stopped in front of the car, did not get off the horse, and said: "Brother Gyro is not dead yet?" ”

Guo Shifeng said coldly: "I didn't plant willows in front of Brother Yu's grave and cry for mourning, I didn't dare to die." ”

The two glared at each other for a moment, laughing at the same time.

Guo Shifeng introduced: "This is Yu Liu, the first strategist of the Southern Army that I often mention, and this is ......"

Yu Liu jumped off the horse and interrupted: "I recognize, Mr. Xu, who is famous in the world, was not very coincidental before, every time Mr. Xu came to visit General Chen, I would not be there, and today I can finally see it with Brother Guo's light." ”

Guo Shifeng did mention Yu Liu, but only once, not often, Xu Ji stepped forward and smiled: "I have heard Brother Yu's name for a long time." ”

Guo Shifeng also got out of the car, and the three of them were polite to each other on the side of the road, especially Xu Ji and Yu Liu, who didn't know more about each other, and they had already seen each other.

After a long time, Yu Liu said: "Brother Guo has always been up and down in the world, and he has been between princes and princes for half his life, why did he lose his standard today and anger General Chen?" ”

Guo Shifeng said: "No way, I am also forced to do it, Chen Mushou doesn't know what's going on, as soon as we meet at the beginning of the year, I have repeatedly disrespected King Ning, as a minister, how can I bear it?" ”

Yu Liu smiled: "Brother Guo, don't think about it, General Chen is burdened with heavy responsibilities, and it is inevitable that he will be a little anxious, and he will ......"

"And what?"

"Let's talk in private, Brother Guo, don't be angry. King Ning came in the wrong way, forcibly married the queen mother, General Chen's court was a heavy minister, how could he be indifferent when he heard it? ”

In front of Yu Liu, Guo Shifeng was indeed not angry, and said with a smile: "Since you are the minister of the bones, you should know the general situation, why stick to the subsections?" If Chen Mushou thinks that if he is not a loyal minister, who would dare to come to Xiangyang? ”

Yu Liu nodded again and again, "Brother Guo is right, but there are always ideas from above, and our staff sometimes can't reverse it." ”

"I have been made a military general by King Ning."

"Congratulations." Yu Liu arched his hand, and did not forget to add, "This is King Ning's own name, right?" ”

Guo Shifeng patted his abdomen, "I have a golden seal." Brother Yu told me the truth, whether Chen Mushou can let go of his prejudice, if not, I will go back immediately and persuade King Ning not to come. Everyone is guarding Xiangyang, and it is not good for the foreign enemy to start internal coaxing before retreating. ”

Yu Liu thought for a while and asked, "Can King Ning worship King Xiangdong?" ”

"Huh?"

"Everyone guards Xiangyang, it can't be a plate of loose sand, it needs to be divided into priorities, the king of Xiangdong is the uncle of the current emperor, and more than half of the heroes are here for him. Chen Mushou does not compete with King Ning for the throne, but the King of Xiangdong must not live under others. ”

"Since they are all kings, they can sit on an equal footing."

Yu Liu shook his head, "The same king, the way of origin is different, King Ning must at least bow to the king of Xiangdong." ”

"I can't do this kind of thing, but I will try my best to persuade King Ning not to destroy the overall situation because of small things."

"If the etiquette is correct, other things can be solved, I will wait for Brother Guo's news." Yu Liu said goodbye and got on the horse and said: "I met Mr. Xu in a hurry, and I didn't get advice, I regret it, and I hope that the next time we meet, you and I can have a long talk." ”

Xu Ji and Guo Shifeng got into the car and went to the next camp.

Guo Shifeng said: "I am very familiar with Yu Liu, and I don't know much about Chen Yi, as far as my brother knows, he is really such a pedantic person?" ”

"I don't know much about him, but he once refused to be the king and insisted on welcoming the king of Xiangdong, which may be evident. I wanted to see the king of Xiangdong, but it seems that I don't have a chance. ”

"Haha, there's always a chance."

"Brother Guo really wants to persuade King Ning to meet King Xiangdong?"

"Of course not, King Ning is as clear as I am, if I say this kind of thing, wouldn't I kill myself? When King Ning comes, let Chen Yi fight by himself, he is not King Ning's opponent. ”

Xu Ji didn't say anything.

The next visit between the two was Yang Qinya.

Jiang Wang Yang Qinzai is very polite, very much looking forward to the arrival of King Ning, knowing that the soldiers are few and weak, he does not dare to discuss etiquette with King Ning, speaking of Zong Mingyi, Yang Qinzai admired: "Lost a few games in a row, everyone is a little scared, no one dares to challenge for half a month, General Zong knows the difficulties, he is a real hero, although he is still glorious in death, we all admire his courage." ”

Xu and Guo Wan refused the banquet and went to meet Ma Lao Machete and Song Zhuzhu before dark.

Although the two armies were not combined into one army, the camps were close to each other, relying on each other, and there were several small battalions around, connected together, quite imposing, not as good as the southern army, but stronger than the Yang army.

Song Zhuzhu was even more enthusiastic, the banquet had been arranged, and the two of them could not participate.

Ma Lao machete is a pure robber, the ancestors did not have a business, did not leave any family business, only to the Ma family to establish a reputation, Ma Lao died early, Ma Lao machete was already the leader when he was a teenager, frequently surrounded and suppressed by the government, but the power gradually expanded, Jing, Luo, Han three states have his footprints.

Ma Lao machete was especially enthusiastic about Xu Ji, "You are the Xu Ji who stabbed the driver?" Haha, I finally met me, you are our great benefactor. Come, come and bow down to your benefactor, and he will give you all your lives. ”

Xu Ji was flattered and didn't dare to accept this big gift, Song Zhuzhu explained beside him: "Let them kneel for a while, just because you killed the Emperor of All Things, and the government's encirclement and suppression ended without a problem, they saved their lives." ”

Ma Lao machete smiled: "That time is really dangerous, there are more officers and soldiers than any time, it seems that it is really ruthless, to cut the Ma family to the roots, who would have thought that God has eyes, suddenly came the news that the dog emperor died, and the officers and soldiers immediately retreated, but we were startled, and it took a long time to inquire about what was going on." ”

Dozens of people knelt down and bowed, and Xu Ji returned the salute.

Grateful to grateful, Ma Lao machete didn't want to continue to guard Xiangyang, "Xiangyang can't hold it, now our grain and grass are enough for a winter, ready to go to the mountains, divide into small shares, and when the fight outside is over, we will get together again." What does Mr. Xu think of this idea? ”

Song Zhuzhu gently shook his head at Xu Ji, signaling him not to object.

Xu Ji smiled: "It seems to be more secure." ”

"That is, if you want to make a living on the rivers and lakes, it is more important than anything else. Like me, a son-in-law, everything is good, but he is uncertain, and people in their thirties are still about the same as when I was in my teens, and they always want to toss something big. ”

Everyone entered the table, Song Zhuzhu grabbed Xu Ji and whispered: "The Xi family sent someone." ”
