The human mouth is the most powerful weapon, and word of mouth is the most popular and effective tool for public opinion dissemination in this era, and it can be regarded as the most primitive and simple self-media.

Kong Sheng became famous in Pengcheng for a while. At this time, someone connected Kong Sheng, a genius in the south of the Yangtze River, with the brave and invincible young general in the Pengcheng campus, and even knew that he was the protégé of the Son of Heaven and the commander of Songcheng County in Suiyang, who had not yet arrived.

Those who have good deeds have given Kong Sheng many nicknames, and they were immediately widely known and interpreted by everyone into a smooth slip that seems to be uncomprehensible, the so-called: "Kong Menlang, Jiang Nanshi, and Wangjiang Poetry will win the championship, and the protégés of the Son of Heaven will fight the heroes; Xiaobawang, Sailubu, and Baima Liang Party A Heavenly Halberd, the young heroes are invincible! ”

Kong Sheng wrote thousands of words in the study of Li Xuan, the county lord of Fengyang, who was temporarily borrowed. This is a letter to Yang Qi, in which he painstakingly analyzes the current situation for Yang Qi, hinting that Li Fuguo has gone to Pengcheng to live and wants him to be prepared.

The word "preparation", even in the system of ancient Chinese, has a broad and profound multiple meanings. Kong Sheng felt that Yang Qi was from a civilian background, and it was impossible not to understand the deep meaning of these two words.

In order to ensure safety, he did not mention substantive issues in the letter from beginning to end, and wrote extremely obscurely, using spring and autumn penmanship. If ordinary people and outsiders have to go, it can only be a homely letter to each other. Only in the eyes of Yang Qi, a caring person, can it be regarded as a meaningful secret letter.

This letter was to ask Li Xuan's people to send it to Jiangnan, and Kong Sheng had to guard against it, and he had to guard against it.

Mu Changfeng knocked on the door with a smile and walked into the study, laughing loudly: "Childe." Now you are famous in Pengcheng, which can be described as a prominent moment. I've heard a few things about you out there. Tell me about it? ”

Kong Sheng ended the letter in his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Mu, for me, this kind of false name is not enough. What they are saying, you can tell me. ”

"Kong Menlang, Jiang Nanshi, and Wangjiang Poetry will win the championship, and the protégés of the Son of Heaven will fight the heroes; Xiaobawang, Sailubu, and Baima Liang Party A Heavenly Halberd, the young heroes are invincible! ”

Kong Sheng couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "What kind of nonsense are these words!" What little overlord, Seryub? How dare I compare with heroes such as the Overlord of Western Chu and Lu Buna of the Three Kingdoms? This kind of fame, for me. It's a killing. ”

Mu Changfeng laughed: "Childe, whether you recognize it or not, the reputation of your little overlord, Sai Lu Bu, and White Horse Liang's Heavenly Halberd has spread in the rivers and lakes." ”

Kong Sheng handed the letter to Mu Changfeng, "Brother Mu, ask the county lord of Fengyang to send this letter back to Jiangnan, and we will set off for Suiyang early tomorrow morning!" ”

"At this moment, it is already the middle of December, and at this time, I am afraid that Luoyang's An Lushan base camp. Something should have changed. Kong Sheng's voice suddenly became a little ethereal and low, and Mu Changfeng couldn't understand his hidden words. simply didn't answer Kong Sheng's words, and went out to hand it over to the messenger arranged by Li Xuan in advance.

Kong Sheng paced out of the hall, wrapped in a thick fur cloak, and stood in the courtyard, looking up at the clouds. The sky is blue and cloudless, a round of red sun hangs in the sky, the northwest wind is still like a song, but it is like a knife sting on the face.

According to historical records, An Lushan suffered from boils for many years due to his obesity, and his vision gradually blurred after the rebellion, and he should be close to complete blindness at this time. The deterioration of his physical condition caused An Lushan's character to become more violent and murderous, often using punishment to hurt his ministers, and even killing his subordinates around him, which was extremely cruel.

When this winter passed, the next year, that is, the fifth day of the first month of the second year of Zhide, An Lushan's ministers and strategists Yan Zhuang conspired with An Qingxu, and the eunuch Li Zhu'er killed An Lushan.

When An Qingxu came to power, the rebels became even more frenzied, and a wave of all-out attacks on Henan Province would be launched. That is, in a few months, Suiyang will face an even more difficult situation.

On the other hand, An Lushan sent four generals, Shi Siming, Cai Xide, Gao Xiuyan, and Niu Tingjie, to lead 100,000 troops from Dingzhou, Shangdang, Datong, and Youzhou to besiege Taiyuan. At that time, Li Guangbi's elite soldiers had been transferred to Shuofang, and there were only a rabble under his command, less than 10,000 people.

If Taiyuan is taken, Li Heng's small court will face a situation of heavy surrounding, and its destruction is just around the corner. But no one would have thought that Li Guangbi would resist Shi Siming's attack of 100,000 people with the strength of 10,000 people, and the defense of Taiyuan was victorious!

This battle was a key battle for the Li Tang court to quell the rebellion and reverse the overall situation.

At this time, it should be the most tense moment when the rebels besieged Taiyuan. Kong Sheng was confident about the outcome of the victory, but the world did not have his foresight and foresight, and was not optimistic about this battle.

King Li Ju and his Jiangbei army thought that Li Guangbi could not hold it at all. This is the main factor that Li Ju is not optimistic about the situation in Henan, he retreated to Pengcheng, unwilling to fight to the death with the rebels, in his opinion, it can be regarded as a wise self-preservation and knowledge of the times and know how to advance and retreat.

A burst of footsteps came, and the Wuxian Wuxie brothers reported in a muffled voice: "Son, the county lord of Fengyang has arrived!" ”

While speaking, Li Xuan, who was dressed in a Tsing Yi scribe's civilian robe and still dressed in men's clothes, floated in, with a faint smile on her delicate face.

Kong Sheng bowed: "I've seen the county lord." ”

Li Xuan waved his hand: "Kong County's order doesn't need to be polite. ”

Li Xuan said again: "Kong Sheng, do you really refuse to stay in Pengcheng and are bent on going to Suiyang?" ”

Kong Sheng snorted: "Please forgive me." Kong could not be untrustworthy and lived up to the trust of the imperial court. Early tomorrow morning, Kong will set off for Suiyang, so goodbye, the more opportunities he has in the future, and then talk to the county lord about wine! ”

Li Xuan was silent for a while before she said slowly: "It's okay, everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't be forced." Kong Sheng, don't look at what you say in a high-sounding manner, but I always think you have ulterior motives. ”

"Since you are bent on going to Suiyang, the county lord can't force you. This trip to Suiyang, the journey is not far, but the situation in Suiyang is difficult and dangerous, although you have the ability to fight thousands of enemies, but after all, you are still alone in danger. In this way, for the sake of the acquaintance between you and me, the lord of this county will send out 200 of his guards and go to Suiyang with you to take office. In the future, if Suiyang is not broken, you and I will finally have a goodbye day. ”

Li Xuan actually sent a team of more than 100 people to give him a gift and go to Suiyang with him, Kong Sheng was surprised, but he took a deep breath and bowed again: "The county lord is gracious, Kong Shengming is heartfelt!" If you have offended or disrespected before, please forgive the county lord! ”

Li Xuan smiled when she heard this: "Kong Sheng, don't mention the past." The lord of this county thinks of you with enthusiasm and loyalty to the country, which is what will help you. But to tell you the truth, I'm really not optimistic about you going to Suiyang. ”

"The lord of this county advises you, if there is something to do, if you can't do it, if you have the opportunity, come to Pengcheng, I will save your life."

Kong Sheng smiled: "Since the county lord is so honest, Kong also has a few words. The county lord, if Suiyang is in danger in the future, he also asks Pengcheng to send reinforcements to keep Suiyang, and he can keep Pengcheng, if Suiyang is lost, Pengcheng will definitely not be protected! Please also ask the county lord to look at the overall situation of the family and country, and help Kong in the future! ”

"Let's talk about the future later." Li Xuan chuckled and waved her hand.

She was very unimpressed with Kong Sheng's words. She didn't think that Suiyang would be able to hold it, nor did she think that Pengcheng would have any great value in sending troops to reinforce Suiyang, nor did she think that the rebels would attack Jiangbei on a large scale, and even if they attacked Pengcheng, Pengcheng would have more than 100,000 troops, and they would be able to keep it safe.

Taking a step back, even if Pengcheng is lost, the Jiangbei Army can calmly retreat to Jiangnan, backed by the rich and stable Jiangnan, fight against the rebels, and wait for the arrival of the main army of the imperial court to quell the rebellion.

Seeing that Li Xuan still didn't pay attention to his words, Kong Sheng sighed secretly in his heart, knowing that the concept of Li Xuan's father and daughter had long been ingrained, and they were bent on protecting the power of King Yu, and they had no other plans, and it was useless to let what they said fall into the sky.

"County Lord, Suiyang is the gateway to eastern Henan, the key to Zhongzhou, the Jianghuai barrier, the throat of Heluo, the rebels have it, and the war will be led to the south of the Yangtze River, and the Tang Dynasty will lose its food supply." Kong Sheng decided to speak one last time, if Li Xuan still couldn't listen, he wouldn't talk nonsense anymore.

"Jiangnan has been invaded by rebels, and the world is really in danger. Please also think twice! ”

Li Xuan laughed: "Kong Sheng, you are really a little alarmist. With more than 100,000 troops in my Jiangbei here, how can the rebels take a step beyond Lei Chi? ”

Kong Sheng sighed, looked at Li Xuan and said, "County Lord, Kong Sheng has a few words, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

Li Xuan smiled indifferently: "You have something to say, but it doesn't hurt to speak, even if you are offended, I will not be as knowledgeable as you." ”

"County Lord, if Suiyang is lost, His Royal Highness King Yu, as the general commander of the Henan Jiangbei Soldiers and Horses March, will not take responsibility? If the imperial court seizes His Royal Highness's military power and appoints others to save Henan, how can His Royal Highness and the county lord be embarrassed? ”

Listening to Kong Sheng's words, Li Xuan's face changed slightly.

Kong Sheng's warning she hadn't thought about it, but she didn't care too much. Because the emperor is far away, the imperial court may not do this, and even if it does, it will be subject to the orders of the foreign monarch, and the family of the king will not sit back and wait for others to slaughter.

"The fall of Henan, if it is not a war, the court must not be so mediocre as to blame my father and king." Li Xuan said slowly: "We have been operating in Jiangbei for many years, and we should try our best to ensure that Pengcheng is not lost, and sit down to prepare for the recovery of Henan." With such a sincere heart for the country, the imperial court will not see it. ”

Li Xuan's answer made Kong Sheng feel disheartened, and he didn't want to say half a sentence anymore.

Originally, if the Pengcheng army divided its troops to support Suiyang, Suiyang would definitely be able to hold it. But Li Xuan's father and daughter are so stubborn, he is helpless, it seems that he can only find another way for the dangerous and difficult situation in the future.

Since this is the case, Kong has nothing to say. The coming day is long, and I hope that the day you and I meet again, we can be well. Kong Sheng hugged his fists.

Li Xuan stared at Kong Sheng deeply, her eyes flickered a little, she slowly turned around and said softly: "Kong Sheng, I'm worried that the prince of the world, who covets your BMW, will take action, without further ado, let's leave Pengcheng today." The lord of this county will not send you. ”

Kong Sheng was shocked and immediately realized that the crisis was coming. If Li Chuan, the son of the world, is determined to snatch his chasing wind, with this person's insidious and shamelessness, he can do anything.

Kong Sheng bowed deeply to Li Xuan's departing back, "Thank you for the reminder." ”

Li Xuan didn't look back, and the soft sigh was instantly blown away in the wind. (To be continued.) )
