Chapter 642: The Courage of the Commander

Later, Meng Xi asked Jiang Xu to do a good job in the supply of grain, grass and ordnance in Nanyang City, and attack with the Shu army, within a few days, the war will be attacked again, this only broke Jiang Xu's victory just ignited, but Meng Xiyan said that it was the truth, he except for looking forward to Wuzheng, Du Yi, and Meng Xi being able to block the Shu army, there was no second way to go.

Zhongdu, Huaren Palace.

Emperor Xia Jing looked at the battle reports from Nanxu and Nanyang, and his heart was like stone.

"Your Majesty, the King of Shu has a big army this time, and it should not be underestimated! Relying on General Wuzheng alone, I am afraid that I can stop it for a while, but I can't stop it for a lifetime! ”

Du Ruting admonished, Emperor Xia Jing pondered silently, for these, he knew very well, but the situation in the capital was not good, now it was difficult to settle down in the government, and the various ministries and departments could not be excessively mobilized, as for the military strength, it had just been completed, and the 50,000 forbidden troops responsible for defending the imperial city could not be moved, so that Emperor Xia Jing was overstretched in terms of troops.

"Your Majesty, actually..."Luo Jinci hesitated for a moment and asked: "There are still 20,000 soldiers and horses in the Xishan camp, can this army be mobilized to the south?" ”

"West Mountain Camp?"

Emperor Xia Jing said to himself, although this city imperial army has some combat power, and half of the northerner Li army has elite cavalry, but Zhang Qi is a person who can't put his mind at ease.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is urgently summoned!"

In everyone's thoughts, the imperial order of the inner palace suddenly came, Emperor Xia Jing listened to it in a hurry, and came to the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Xia Jing noticed that something was wrong from the faces of the inner servants, and even his heart was raised to his throat.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor... No, no, no."

Qi An drove out, hearing this, Emperor Xia Jingdi's legs weakened, and he immediately walked into the court, and when he saw the dead man on the dragon couch, Emperor Xia Jingdi immediately cried.

After a while, Du Ruting and other old ministers arrived one after another, and when everyone was finished, Qi An and Emperor Xia Jing said: "Before the Emperor Taishang went west, he told his subordinates whether the strategy in the Shu army was feasible or not, it was all in the past two days, if there is news, it is Your Majesty Tiangu, if not, Your Majesty can only rely on yourself!" ”

For this, Emperor Xia Jing knew what he meant, and it was also Emperor Xia Wu's secret move to warn Emperor Xia Jing to resist the Shu army before, counting the time, it was almost time to have a result.

It's just that Emperor Xia Wu died, Emperor Xia Jing was heartbroken, and it was difficult to care about it for a while, after all, Emperor Xia Wu was his father, no matter how many wrong things he did, just because Emperor Xia Wu was still thinking about Great Xia before he died, it was enough to witness that his heart was clear. Relieved the heartache, Emperor Xia Jing announced to the world, and at the same time issued an order to bury Emperor Xia Wu and the imperial tomb, and sleep with the ancestral emperor.

Nan Xu, the camp of the Shu army in the city, the king of Shu Jing Yuzi played against Ruan Sidao on the chessboard, when the son of the king of Shu fell into the middle of the game, Ruan Sidao laughed out loud, and the king of Shu raised his eyebrows slightly.

"What do you mean, sir?"

"Your Highness, the chessboard is like life, whether you advance or retreat, it is all the way, but Your Highness has fallen into a strange situation, killing the old man in the camp, but leaving it alone, the old man can't understand it, so he smiles bitterly!"

The king of Shu shook his head when he heard this, and followed him with another son, who happened to echo Fang Cai's son across the mountain, and when he got here, Ruan Sidao suddenly understood.

"Wonderful... It's wonderful! ”

The King of Shu smiled and asked, "Dare to ask Mr., where is the wonderful?" ”

"Your Highness's move is quite powerful, even the old man was almost fascinated by you!" Ruan Sidao stroked his beard: "With the meaning that no one knows, he comes out casually, but in the back place, he is left to the hand of victory, no wonder the words of the micro son Tianzhao said that His Royal Highness is the choice of Tianzun, the only lord of Great Xia!" ”

Ruan Sidao's words seem to be sycophants, but in fact, the ambition of the king of Shu lies, the only son falls into the enemy camp, seems to be trapped, but once the external force makes it, the only son will become murderous, and the killing intent is in all directions, in the capital... Broken!

But the king of Shu did not have such a full grasp of the hand so proudly and naturally, after he laughed, he got up slowly, and unconsciously coughed lightly.

"Sir, people are not sages, who can do nothing, they are greedy, they want to be wanted, they are the king's power, I don't know why, this king has a bad premonition, it seems that something is going to happen!"

"Your Highness, you are just worried about yourself!"

Ruan Sidao's words fell, and the flag ordered the soldiers to report.

"Your Highness, the former general Wang Ping was defeated in Nanyang City, losing 5,000 soldiers, and now he has gone to the north gate to apologize!"

"What? Wang Ping was defeated? ”

Ruan Sidao was slightly stunned, but the King of Shu was calm and unchanged: "Isn't it just a war, if you lose, you will be defeated, send an order to Wang Ping, summon in the tent!" ”

When Wang Ping retreated to Nanxu City with the defeated soldiers, he didn't know that an undercurrent had been curling like smoke and had already drifted out here.

Nanxu West City, commercial street, a grocery store, in its backyard portal, several people gathered here.

"Lord Lingguan, Shi Jian is still hanging on the city gate building, look at that appearance, it is estimated that he is dead!"

Hearing this, the commander of the secret faction under the jurisdiction of the Supervision Department of the Central Capital, the former Shangshu Youcheng, the son of Chang Qilian, Chang Yaosheng Shen face here, although his Lao Tzu became a victim in the palace fighting imperial power, but Emperor Xia Wu inherited the unification and took care of Chang Qilian's son, the eldest son Chang Yaosheng was calm and calm, thinking smartly, so he became a person of the Supervision Division, and the second son Chang Yaowu was brave and brave, and entered the forbidden army as a general.

As long as Chang Yaosheng can secretly surrender to the Shu army, when its war is in place, Chang Yaosheng will mess with the heart of the Shu army, and the king of Shu will be defeated, but this is easier said than done.

Since the Shu army came out of Sichuan, Chang Yaosheng was ordered to hide Nan Xu, and originally wanted to use Shi Jian to come to a false body, but Shi Lian, Yan Zhi and other local officials Hu Lai, and what's more, Gao Li, the criminal punishment officer of the Supervision Department, suddenly intervened, not to mention losing his life, and also disturbed Chang Yaosheng in time, and Chang Yaosheng was also unmoved, and he was fooled in Wang Ping's search for Nan Xu's rebels, otherwise his head would be hanging on the city gate tower at this moment.

For the report of his subordinates, Chang Yaosheng thought for a moment, and just as another news came, it was Wang Ping's defeat in Nanyang City.

"Your Excellency, what should we do? A few days ago, there was a message from the dark whistle in the middle of the city, how should I reply? ”

"Don't go back yet!" Chang Yaosheng said in a deep voice: "This matter is as difficult as ascending to the sky, if you can't do a good way, you will waste your life and not achieve anything!" ”

"But Lord Qi An is still there..."

"Leave him alone!" Chang Yaosheng reprimanded: "He sits high in the court, and his fingers are dispatched, but it is us who are working hard, and everything is respected by my order!" ”

At this moment, Chang Yaosheng had a flash of inspiration in front of him: "It is said that the king of Shu is smart, and he is even more favored by heaven, so I have a way to try it!" ”

The camp of the Shu army, after the king of Shu An Sheng, said: "It's just a small Nanyang city, it can't stop the pace of this king, you take a day of rest for the time being, and return to fight tomorrow!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kind words!"

Wang Ping sobbed and left, and the King of Shu shook his head: "Alas, it seems that this emperor's nephew really has some courage!" ”
