Chapter 1361 The wind and clouds are moving, and the war is rising
State of Chu, Imperial Palace.
Xiong Rong dragged his injured body, braved the scorching heat, looked joyful, and hurried over.
Walked into the palace and asked the chamberlain about Xiong Heng's location, Xiong Rong instructed the chamberlain to lead the way, eager to find Xiong Heng quickly.
In the pavilion of the imperial garden, Xiong Heng took fish food to feed the fish in the pavilion, and in the pond next to it, many red carp were concentrated from all directions.
Xiong Rong arrived in the pavilion, looking at Xiong Heng's actions and shaking his head slightly, the court was in a bad situation, and Xiong Heng still had the leisure to feed the fish.
Walked into the pavilion, bowed down and saluted: "Brother Xiong Rong pays a visit to the emperor!"
When Xiong Heng heard the sound, he handed over the fish food to the attendant next to him, turned around and came to Xiong Rong's side, stretched out his hand to help Xiong Rong, and said, "The fourth brother came suddenly, but the front line came back with good news?"
Fan Danqing led the troops to leave the Northern Expedition in Yingcheng for a period of time, and the news was sent back to the front every two days.
"Your Majesty, Fan Danqing did send back the news, but I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse for the Chu State." Xiong Rong did not hide it and told the situation on the front line.
Hearing this, Xiong Heng's face smiled, turned around and sat in the pavilion, and asked: "What news did Fan Danqing send back, even the fourth brother, you don't know the stakes!"
When Xiong Rong was silent, he escaped from the python robe and sent it to Xiong Heng, and said softly: "This is the news that Fan Danqing sent back from the front line, Emperor Yan, Emperor Yan sent an army to attack Xiong Wu's army, causing many casualties under Xiong Wu's tent. However, Hou Mingfeng, Zhao Jun led the troops to expel Xiong Wu from the six northern counties, and when he occupied a great advantage, he suddenly stood still, and 100,000 cavalry displayed the Yanchu border."
"What, Hou Mingfeng, Zhao Jun led the cavalry to attack Xiong Wu, could it be that Emperor Yan has already transferred the main force from Yue to Chu?" Xiong Heng was flipping through the excerpts, and he didn't have time to read the contents of the excerpts, when he suddenly heard Xiong Rong's words. Suddenly stood up from the gazebo bench and stared at Xiong Rong incredulously.
Emperor Yan released Xiong Wu and sent an army to hunt down Xiong Wu, Xiong Heng was not on guard, and he couldn't guess what conspiracy Lin Feng had.
If you want to kill Xiong Wu, at the beginning, if Xiong Wu was not released in Aocheng, where did today's disaster come from, even he himself would not be at peace.
Xiong Rong shook his head slightly. Lang said: "Don't worry, the emperor Yan has not yet transferred the main force of the Yan army to the Chu State, but Hou Mingfeng, Zhao Jun, Heng Bangchang, led the troops into the six northern counties, Hou Mingfeng has a very high status in the Yan army, and he is the favorite general of Emperor Yan. At the beginning, he personally sent the abolished emperor out of the city, and now he personally leads the army to recruit the abolished emperor, which makes his subordinates unbelievable!"
"Fourth brother, no matter whether Hou Mingfeng is an enemy or a friend, he led the army to recruit Xiong Wu, and indirectly helped you and me, where is Han Xiangzi, Xiong Wu was hunted down. Did he lead the troops back to protect Xiong Wu?" Xiong Heng asked.
Xiong Wu's soldiers were weakened by the Yan army, if Han Xiangzi led the troops back, the Yingcheng crisis was resolved, and the strength of the two sides was eliminated, and the court would not be afraid of Xiong Wu.
After pondering for a moment, Xiong Heng got up and said: "Xiong Wu's strength has been frustrated, and the imperial court should take the opportunity to urge Fan Danqing to lead his troops to speed up the attack on Xiong Wu, strive to eliminate Xiong Wu in a short time, recover the northern territory, and then try to recapture the six northern counties from the Yan army."
One mountain does not allow two tigers, one country does not allow two masters, Xiong Heng firmly believes that in Chu, there is no Xiong Wu with him, and there is Xiong Wu without him, and they must not coexist with each other.
Xiong Rong didn't say much, staring at Xiong Heng with a complicated expression, not sure what to say?
He supported Xiong Heng's usurpation of the throne, but he could not watch the state of Chu be disintegrated by the enemy.
At this moment, Xiong Heng's words were extremely short-sighted, which made him a little disappointed.
responded: "Your Majesty, Han Xiangzi learned that the deposed emperor was attacked by the Yan army, and he has led his troops to return north quickly. At the moment, there will be no threat to the imperial court."
"The enemy retreats and I advance, and Fan Danqing should be ordered to take advantage of Han Xiangzi's north to protect the lord, and Han Xiangzi should be chased and beaten fiercely, if Han Xiangzi collapses the army under Han Xiangzi's account before Han Xiangzi converges, Xiong Wu's own strength will be reduced a lot." Xiong Heng said with confidence and did not let go of Han Xiangzi's thoughts.
When Xiong Rong heard this, he lowered his head and said nothing, as if he was thinking about the problem.
Xiong Heng noticed that Xiong Rong was silent, and asked, "Fourth brother, is there anything wrong, could it be that you have a good idea?"
Xiong Rong moved to Xiong Heng's side, was silent for a while, and said: "Your Majesty, Yan Guo, Xiong Wu, who is the enemy of Chu State?"
"Yan Guo, there is no doubt about this!" Xiong Heng cut the railway, clenched his fists and said: "Emperor Yan has even won over the Duan family, and the heart of death will not die, and there will be a fierce battle between Chu and Yan."
"That's right, Yan State is the main enemy of Chu State, has the emperor ever thought about the loss of the abolished emperor's army in the north, the territory controlled by the imperial court borders Yan Land, and the imperial court army alone can resist the Yan army going south." Xiong Rong asked.
"This...."
Hearing the sound, Xiong Heng stammered instantly, not knowing what to say?
Xiong Wu has Xiong Kuohai, Han Xiangzi, Xiong Zhan and other famous generals of the Chu State, on the other hand, in the imperial court, from letting the imperial envoy Fan Danqing lead the troops to fight, it has been clearly proved that there are no brave generals in the court.
Even if Han Xiangzi trained the new army and cultivated many young generals, these young generals not only have the courage of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, but are very different from Han Xiangzi, Xiong Kuohai, Xiong Zhan and others in terms of tactics, pattern, and vision.
What's more, the generals of the new army have rarely undergone baptism of war, so naturally they cannot be compared with the veteran generals who fought on the battlefield.
Xiong Heng was silent, Xiong Rong hit the railway while it was hot: "Your Majesty, Xiong Wu has been hit by the Yan army continuously, and his strength is still very strong, there is Xiong Wu in the north to resist the enemy, it will be like a barrier, reduce the military disaster for the imperial court, if the imperial court and the Yan army attack from the north and south, and gradually eradicate the army under Xiong Wu, the area controlled by the imperial court borders the Yan land, and the imperial court army does not want to block the Yan army, and soon, the Yan army will easily annex the Chu State.
The younger brother proposed that while Emperor Yan's attention was focused on the Yue Kingdom, there was still Wu Yue's army to contain it, and the imperial court should take the opportunity to strengthen its strength, in addition, constantly balance Xiong Wu and Hou Mingfeng's army, and at the appropriate time, it was necessary for the imperial army to unite with Xiong Wu's control army and fight against the Yan army.
According to the current situation of the Chu State, even if it is gradually divided into two Chu States, the north and the south, at the critical moment, the emperor and Xiong Wu have changed their minds clearly, our common enemy, the ultimate enemy is the Yan State."
"Xiong Rong, did you suggest that I order Fan Danqing to temporarily garrison the north, leaving Xiong Wu time and letting him solve his own problems?" Xiong Heng's face did not change color, but secretly he was very unhappy.
"Your Majesty, you should know that Emperor Yan has mobilized Zhao Hongru to lead troops to the north of Yue to jointly fight against Yue with the King of Jin, and Emperor Yan personally ordered the generals to lead Feng Shihu, Feng Yi, Ju Wentai, Meng Kuo, from Aocheng to the north, in recent days, continuous battles against Yue, and has achieved good success.
A Yue country that was disabled by the king of Jin was no longer able to stop the edge of the Yan army, but Emperor Yan personally fought the battle, and the most important purpose was to use the Yue country as a battlefield to quickly eliminate the Wu and Yue army.
In order to keep the remaining territory of Chu State, the emperor should not kill the abolished emperor, otherwise he would dig his own grave!" Xiong Rong expressed his inner thoughts.
Unexpectedly, Xiong Heng got up suddenly and shouted, "Bold, Xiong Rong, what are you talking about. What does it mean to kill them all, how can others be allowed to sleep on the side of the couch, I will not kill Xiong Wu, Xiong Wu will not let me go, between us, someone must die."
Xiong Rong's body was shocked, and he couldn't help but stumble back, and was supported by the attendant next to him to avoid the embarrassment of falling to the ground.
Stabilize his body, stared at Xiong Heng and stopped, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, Xiong Heng had changed, he had become ruthless and short-sighted.
Today, Xiong Wu is wiped out, and in the coming day, Emperor Yan's soldiers are coming to the city, and he Xiong Heng will definitely die.
His lips squirmed slightly, and Xiong Rong said loudly: "Your Majesty, think twice!"
"Xiong Rong, you are injured, you should recuperate with peace of mind in the near future, and you don't have to deal with government affairs for the time being." Xiong Heng never accepted Xiong Rong's dissuasion, and even used the excuse of recuperation to remove Xiong Rong from power in the imperial court.
Hearing this, Xiong Rong stared at Xiong Heng incredulously, bowed slightly and saluted: "Emperor Xie is compassionate, and my brother is leaving."
Without staying in the pavilion for long, Xiong Rong lost his soul and turned to leave.
He didn't know whether Xiong Heng usurped the throne and was cautious and cautious in order to keep the imperial power, or if he was young and vigorous at the beginning, he didn't know people, and he didn't notice Xiong Heng's flaws and his character.
No matter what Xiong Heng did, there was no doubt that Xiong Heng accelerated his attack on Xiong Wu, and the result was a defeat for both sides, so that the sooner the Chu State was annexed by the Yan State.
In the pavilion, Xiong Heng witnessed Xiong Rong gradually moving away, turned to the chamberlain beside him and said, "Xiao Dezi, send the chamberlain to the front line quickly, and remind Fan Danqing to take advantage of Xiong Wu's belly and back to suffer the enemy, and strive to speed up the attack on Xiong Wu, I need good news."
"Yes!" Xiao Dezi bowed his head and strode away.
Xiong Heng took a long breath, and learned that Xiong Rong said that it was advantageous, and he firmly believed that after chasing and defeating the weak Xiong Wu's strength, Xiong Kuohai, Xiong Zhan and other generals would definitely defect to Xiong Wu after they surrendered to Xiong Wu.
Unified the Chu State, he was confident and sure, led the elite army of the Chu State, and expelled the Yan army from the territory of the Chu State.
At this moment, Xiong Rong didn't understand his plan, but when he succeeded, he summoned Xiong Heng to come again, and the other party would definitely appreciate and praise his ability.
....................
The summer is scorching, the scorching sun shines on the ground, and the land has not been moistened by the rain for a long time.
In the official road leading from Aocheng to the northern part of the Yue Kingdom, Lin Feng personally led 300,000 cavalry elites, and had already embarked on the idea of quickly annexing the Yue Kingdom.
In the past few days, Lin Feng's four generals led the army to the east and west, and with the help of Yan Cai's combat power, they quickly annexed the northern and southern cities of Yueguo.
Although the annexed cities are mostly ordinary cities with weak defenses, but in Lin Feng's heart, no matter the size of the city, quickly annex the territory of the Yue Kingdom, the Vietnamese army in this territory can only continue to gather to the north, and the place where they can survive is getting smaller and narrower, and when the time is ripe, the Yan army is like a pack of wolves hunting, and finally kills the prey that gathers panic.
In the southern part of the country, due to the gallop of the Yan army, the flames gradually broke out.
Unlike the Yue State that withstood the blow of the Yan army, the Wu State gradually strengthened the defense of the Wu-Yue border, and beware that when the Yan army was fighting against the Yue State, the troops suddenly turned eastward, and suddenly killed the Wu State, destroying the defense of the Wu State.
During the march, Yang Yue learned of Wu's move and couldn't help but scoff.
No matter how Wu defended and never completely annexed Yue, the Yan army would never divide the troops into two ways except to consume the Wu army in Vietnam, and then use troops against Wu, thereby weakening the combat effectiveness of the Yan army.
