"Chen Qingzhi!"

"The last general!" Chen Qingzhi came out of the ranks, wearing a white robe like a brilliant light, eye-catching, and the white cloak behind him was slightly raised in the wind, showing military might. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"In this battle, I order you to be the main general and lead the affairs of the three armies!" Xu Jue loudly announced this unexpected order.

The soldiers present booed, obviously not optimistic about this bookish "general".

Seeing this, Xu Qi untied the sword on his waist, handed it to Chen Qingzhi, looked at the soldiers of the three armies and said solemnly: "Seeing this sword is like seeing me, if there is someone who does not obey orders, you can take this sword and kill it, I don't ask anything!" ā€

Chen Qingzhi arched his hand: "The last general will obey the order!" ā€

Xu Qi glanced at him, and Chen Qingzhi turned around: "Wang Yanzhang and Yang Zhi, two generals, listen to the order!" ā€

Wang Yanzhang slowly bowed his hand, obviously reluctant: "The end will be!" ā€

"With the two of you as my lieutenants, assist me in attacking Wuling!"

"Yes!" Yang Zhi is very decisive, and Wang Yanzhang is very unwilling.

Xu Jue saw it in his eyes, and then looked at Chen Qingzhi, seeing that his eyes were ancient and modern, and knew that he had his own countermeasures, but he didn't want Chen Qingzhi to suddenly shout: "Xu Jue! ā€

Xu Jue was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he knew Chen Qingzhi's intentions, and arched his hand in a respectful and resounding voice: "The end will be!" ā€

This shout made the officers and men of the three armies shocked, and they were all surprised: the lord was so respectful to him?

The most shocked was Wang Yanzhang, who looked at Xu Qi in disbelief, and really didn't understand why he was so respectful to this Confucian student.

"Xu Jue, I ordered you to personally lead a force to meet in the rear, escort grain and grass, and manage logistics!"

Xu Jue smiled bitterly in his heart: I dare to love me and become a grain supervisor, but I still respectfully surrendered my hand and "obey!" ā€

Chen Qingzhi nodded, looking at Xu Jue's eyes full of gratitude and approval, Xu Jue returned a look, and the two knew each other, which was really heartwarming.

"Wei Yan, Wei Chigong!"

"The last general!" Even though one of the two was wild and the other was bold, due to their relatively shallow qualifications, they did not show dissatisfaction with Chen Qingzhi.

"You two are my vanguard officers, and you will be the first to attack when you attack the city!"

"Haha! Yes, sir! The two laughed and were very happy to receive their orders.

After Chen Qingzhi finished explaining everything, he bowed his hand to Xu Jue: "Lord, everything is ready to be explained, please give instructions to the lord!" ā€

Xu Qi shouted below: "Soldiers, this expedition is fully under the command of General Chen, and I am just a general, understand?" ā€

The soldiers were silent for a while before shouting, "Understood! ā€

"Hehe, Xu Aiqing, I won't say much, I just wish you a smooth journey, you can exterminate the traitors, and rejuvenate my Han!"

Emperor Han knew that Xu Jue was about to go on an expedition and came to march in person.

"Your Majesty's grace, the last general will definitely do his best to suppress the thief and live up to the trust of the saint!" Xu Qi said.

"Okay, I'll be relieved to have your words." Emperor Han smiled and turned to leave.

This smile made Xu Jue feel like the sunshine melting the snow, warming his heart.

"Okay, let's go!"

Xu Jue gave an order, and the soldiers of the three armies marched in the direction of Wuling, with Wei Yan and Wei Chigong in front, leading two thousand soldiers to open the way; Chen Qingzhi, together with Wang Yanzhang and Yang Zhi, led 10,000 soldiers to follow; Xu Jue and Xu Da, Feng Sheng, and Li Changgeng led two thousand soldiers, a total of 14,000 people, and in the city, there were seven thousand 'golden gun squads' that Xu Ning was practicing, Li Kui's five hundred heavy axe warriors and five hundred regiment players, and less than a thousand soldiers were responsible for defending the city, and at present, Xu Jue's army totaled more than 22,000 people.

Chaisang to Wuling is about 600 miles away, and Xu Qi's army marches slowly, 120 miles a day, and is expected to arrive in five days.

Li Shimin traveled lightly, with only two members of Xu Jue's entourage, and when he went out to rest and eat, he traveled all the way, more than 300 miles a day, and came to Guiyang two days later.

"Report! Taishou, there is a person outside the city who claims to be Xu Jue's subordinate and comes to visit Taishou! ā€

In Guiyang City, a middle-aged man with a slightly bloated body was sitting on the Taishou chair with crooked eyes, and said absentmindedly: "Oh? Xu Jue? Could it be that Xu Qi, who performed well in the Battle of the Yellow Turban? ā€

"Exactly!"

"Hehe, this person is young and promising, and he has some ability, since he is his subordinate, let him in!" Zhao Fan sat up straight, straightened his clothes, and had a serious expression, waiting for someone to come.

At the time of a cup of tea, Li Shimin and his two entourages came to the Taishou Mansion, and when they saw Zhao Fan with a majestic expression, they laughed in their hearts: This guy seems to want to give me a horse.

Zhao Fan squinted his eyes and looked at Li Shimin, seeing that his eyes were bright, his eyebrows were divided, his demeanor was graceful, and his appearance was dignified, he immediately felt that this person was not unusual, and then looked at the two entourages behind him, both of whom were tall and strong, and his eyes were murderous, and his momentum suddenly weakened a lot.

got up and said with a smile: "I heard that Your Excellency is Xu Jue's envoy, I don't know what to see when you come to the Hidden Mansion?" ā€

Li Shimin bowed his hand, introduced himself, and after the salute, he ordered the two behind him: "Dedicated to Zhao Taishou!" ā€

"No!" The two of them held the gold covered with red cloth, came to Zhao Fan and said, "Please Zhao Taishou smile!" ā€

Zhao Fan was stunned for a moment, thinking that I have no friendship with Xu Jue, why did he send something to me? Well, let me see what it is.

He stretched out his hand to lift the red cloth, and when he saw the shining gold nuggets, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching a few times, and his eyes showed a greedy green light, and he kept laughing with a few pieces of gold: "Okay!" ā€

stroked them one by one, like touching a lover's hand, after a long time, he reluctantly let go, and his smile on Li Shimin was also a lot closer: "Such a big gift, how can a contemptible person accept it?" ā€

Li Shimin smiled and said: "My lord has always admired the name of Zhao Taishou, and I have heard for a long time that Zhao Taishou is conscientious and conscientious, guarding the border and the people, and under the order of the lord, he came to offer a thousand taels of gold, please Zhao Taishou smiled!" ā€

Zhao Fan is a brainless person, and he has lived in a corner for a long time, but now when he heard Li Shimin's good words, his heart was full of joy and he laughed: "Okay! This gift is disrespectful, so I will accept it! ā€

Ordered the left and right to bring the gold down: "Hehe, what else is there to do with Master Li?" I am clear about the so-called reactive power, but please speak, as long as I can, I will never hesitate to help! ā€

Li Shimin saw that the time was almost up, and said with a straight face: "I can't hide it, that Wuling Taishou Jin Xuan has a brutal personality, does all kinds of bad things, and does not obey the order, the Son of Heaven is angry, and orders my lord Xu Qi to go to conquer this thief, I hope you can send troops to help!" ā€

Zhao Fan's expression suddenly stiffened when he heard this, then he frowned, paced behind him with his hands behind him, and slowly spoke: "This ...... Master Li, it's not that I don't want to help, it's just that this Jin Xuan is fierce and brave, and he is also the general under his command Xing Daorong, who has the courage of ten thousand people, I really can't help! ā€

Li Shimin knew that Zhao Fan would refuse, so he smiled: "Zhao Taishou, Your Majesty has an order, if you can help our army defeat Jin Xuan, you will be promoted to General Pingnan and named the Marquis of Longyang!" ā€

Zhao Fan smiled disdainfully: "Master Li wants to bluff me, the Son of Heaven is young, and the world knows it, why can he seal me?" ā€

Li Shimin was dumbfounded and shouted: "Since you still know that there is a Son of Heaven, dare not listen to the holy order!" Could it be that there is a heart of disobedience? ā€

Zhao Fan was taken aback by Li Shimin's sudden voice, and said with a smile: "No, no, no, Master Li misunderstood, it's not that I don't listen to the holy order, but I just say it without evidence, and besides, my duty is to guard Guiyang, so it's inconvenient to move lightly." ā€

Li Shimin smiled sinisterly: "Hehe...... Zhao Taishou, your words are quite disobedient, you question the holy order, do not follow the way of the courtiers, if it spreads, do you think you can still live in this Guiyang? ā€

Seeing Zhao Fan pondering, Li Shimin continued: "On the contrary, if you are willing to send troops, plus my lord's heroic division that conquers the south and the north, after defeating Jin Xuan, it is not a problem to be promoted to the rank of marquis, I don't know which of the two do you choose?" ā€

Zhao Fan pondered for a moment and sighed: "That's it!" I'll go with you, I just hope what you say is true! ā€

Li Shimin showed a triumphant smile: "Of course! ā€
