The news of the great victory of the east and west roads reached the back hall, and the Yinwen Emperor Long Yan Dayue. Yuanhang captured Guxin Mansion on the West Road, and he could send troops to Suzhou, the capital of Qi State, at any time. Situ Hao of the East Road besieged Xiapu City, and the Qi general Sima Jian did not dare to fight, and the city was just around the corner. The only thing that worried him was that the army of Nubei also divided into two routes from Chenzhou, one approaching Suzhou from the north, and the other marching eastward towards Xiapu. At the time of the initial alliance, it was agreed that Nubei only needed to contain Chenzhou, but now that a large army has entered the Central Plains, is it to help me destroy the Qi State, or do I have other plans?

Qi Heng, the king of Qi, had a bloodless face and sat on the dragon chair. The hall was silent, and the panicked looks of the hundred officials jumped on their faces. Gu Xin's army was defeated, Xiapu was besieged, and everyone's hearts were like mirrors, and they all knew that the time for the country to die was not far away.

"Holy." Prime Minister Helan Feng stood up, bent over, and looked at Qi Heng.

Qi Heng was awakened and looked at Helan Feng distractedly, "He Aiqing, is there something wrong?" ”

Seeing Qi Heng's sad appearance, Helan Feng hesitated when the words came to his lips. But this is a matter of the survival of the country, and as the prime minister, I still have to say it.

"Holy Lord, now that the Liang State has troops in Suzhou, our army is imminent. The minister suggested that he abandon Suzhou, withdraw the soldiers and horses of Xiapu, go north out of the Central Plains and enter the Saiwai, defeat Nubei, and my Qi country can re-establish the country outside the Saiwai. ”

"Holy one, no." An old minister stood up, bowed down and said: "That Nubei is now entrenched in the three cities outside the Saiwai, you can pass through Chenzhou when you enter, and you can return to the outside of the Saiwai if you retreat, if our army abandons Suzhou, there will be no city to defend." If the Liang army pursues and kills, our army will be angry and humble in front of it, and the Liang army will be in the back, won't it kill itself? ”

"Holy Lord, when this time comes, you should seek victory in the face of danger." Helan Feng straightened his upper body and said loudly: "According to the report of Tan Malai, Nubei has been divided into two routes, there are only about 70,000 soldiers and horses on the Suzhou side, and there are no less than 60,000 soldiers and horses in my city, General Sima has withdrawn, and there are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the attack on Chenzhou should be captured." Only by taking Chenzhou can our army rely on natural danger to resist the Liang army. ”

Qi Heng naturally didn't want to abandon Suzhou, and asked the rest of the ministers instead, "What opinions do you have, have you all said." ”

A minister came out and said, "The minister thinks that we should sue for peace with the Liang State and stop the war, so that the people will not suffer from the war." ”

"Summation?" Helan Feng snorted coldly and looked back at the minister, "In this situation, is the Liang State Council peaceful?" You're asking the Holy One to surrender, right? ”

"Whether it is seeking peace or surrender, the Holy Lord of Bao and the people of Qi are the most important." The minister was not afraid of Helan Feng now, and straightened up in response.

"Those who bring disaster to the country should be beheaded." Helan Feng popped out a few words from between his teeth, and his eyes stared coldly.

"Holy Mingjian, now the army of the Liang State is coming from the east and west, and there is still anger and humility in the north, and our army is no longer able to fight. If the saint hands over the letter of surrender, the Liang State will be sealed and the city will be sealed, and then the saint will only need to mention that he wants Suzhou, and it will be the same as now. His Royal Highness's ministers stood up one after another, and although their words were different, their meanings were basically the same, and they all persuaded the king of Qi to surrender.

Helan Feng was so emotional that his lungs were about to explode. turned around and looked at each other angrily, and reprimanded: "You and the others are all courtiers of the Qi State, but now you are saying such words that are harmful to the country. Anyone can be surrendered, and after the surrender, he will either be a courtier or a common man, but he will change the world. Only the king of Qi cannot surrender, and the king of Qi will die if he surrenders, but there is just a pair of skins left. ”

Qi Heng sat on it without saying a word, watching their fierce verbal arguments, and his heart rolled back and forth like a boulder in water. It's the last ditch, go away. Or stay in Suzhou and ask for surrender. As the dispute below became more and more intense, King Qi's mood also became irritable.

"Okay, let's not talk about it." Qi Heng shouted, and there was a sudden silence below. "Stand down, let me think."

"The ministers are leaving." The ministers below, please stand back and run to their own houses. There is no longer the scene of scattering in the past, talking and laughing.

Voyage in Guxin Mansion for more than half a month, learned that Nubei had passed Chenzhou, although I don't know what Nubei's intentions were, or for the sake of safety, left the Qin Dynasty to garrison the city, and led the army to Suzhou, the capital of Qi State.

Qi Heng spent these days in torment, and learned that Nubei in the north and Liang in the west had sent troops to Suzhou, and made a decision in panic to ask Liang to surrender in order to save his life.

After Helan Feng learned the news, he tried hard to persuade King Qi to change his mind. Qi Heng had made up his mind and turned Helan Feng away. Helan Feng looked up to the sky and sighed, unwilling to see the pain of losing his country, and returned to his house to overhang the beam.

The news of King Qi's request for surrender reached Xia Pu, and Sima Jian was equally shocked. Although he knew that the country was in danger, he did not expect that the king of Qi would ask for surrender. Holding the holy decree in his hand to abandon Xia Pu and transfer troops back to Suzhou, Sima Jian was in tears and heartbroken. After handing over the military power to his subordinates, this veteran general who devoted his life to the Qi State killed himself with a sword, and like Helan Feng, he used his life to be loyal to the Qi State in the end.

After half a year-long campaign, the two armies of the Liang State merged together in Suzhou City. The king of Qi sent an envoy out of the city to ask for surrender, Situ Hao received the surrender letter, so that his soldiers unloaded their armor, and the weapons were returned to the warehouse, and the 100,000 Qi troops in the city were temporarily transferred to Xiapu.

"Yuanhang, now that the Qi country is dead, Nubei and the two armies are divided in Suzhou and Xiapu, according to your opinion, what do they want?" Situ Hao and Yuanhang got together to discuss the current military situation.

Yuan Voyage pondered for a while, but he was not sure, and said: "Marshal Situ, Nubei once had an alliance with our country, and now they are coming south, I think there are no more than two reasons. ”

"Tell me about it." Situ Hao clenched his fists and propped them on the table, staring intently at the voyage.

Yuanhang cleared his throat, "One, they want to work at ease. If we are equal in strength with the Qi army, when both sides are defeated, we will take the opportunity to attack, and after inflicting heavy losses on the two armies, we will capture Suzhou. The second is to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger, if our army can get Suzhou, they will send troops to help each other, and want to get a piece of the pie in the territory of Qi. ”

"According to your concerns, now that our army has not been injured, Nubei will choose the second plan and occupy the city."

"This ...... I'm just guessing. Yuanhang suddenly felt that he had to go to Nubei to take a look, he didn't want to continue the war, and he didn't want to see anyone die.

"Marshal Situ, the Nubei army is not far from here, you are in the garrison, I will go to the Nubei side."

Situ Hao's proposal to sail was immediately denied, "Now I don't know what the intention of anger and humility is, if you go at this time, won't you be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?" ”

"It's okay, I have my own way to protect myself." Yuanhang believes in the sky and believes that he can do it.

Situ Hao couldn't persuade him, so he had to agree to him going, "There are only three days, if you don't return after three days, I will lead the army north until the outside of the Saiwai." Situ Hao's words made Yuanhang's eyes hot, and he bowed to him, "Thank you, father-in-law." ”

This father-in-law also reminded Situ Hao of Yilan, his eyes were also red, and he turned around and waved his hand back. Yuanhang didn't say anything more, turned around and left the tent.

"Your Excellency, you are going to the Nubei Army?" Fu Yashi also didn't understand what Yuanhang wanted to do, isn't it crazy.

Yuanhang nodded affirmatively, and explained the affairs of the general to him. Fu Yashi wanted to accompany him, but the voyage was not allowed, so he only took Dao Zi, Ah Jin and five hundred guards, and left the camp and marched to the Nubei military camp fifty miles away.

The Nubei army was encamped fifty miles north of Suzhou, and as expected by the voyage, King Qian really wanted to fish in troubled waters and occupy Suzhou when the strength of the two countries was exhausted. It's just that the Qi State surrendered without a fight, and the Nubei army stayed behind and was ready to withdraw to Chenzhou.

Suzhou is the department led by Cang Xiangtian, and when he learned that the voyage suddenly came, Cang Xiangtian was also surprised, and asked people to invite him in.

"Haha, Brother Xiang Tian is here." When Yuanhang came in, he clasped his fists and saluted, and his eyes scanned around to see if he could find anything.

Cang Xiangtian got up and saluted back, and said with a smile: "How did Lord Ye come to me so freely." ”

"Eh, it's been nearly a year since I parted with Brother Xiang Tian, and when I learned that your army was so close to Suzhou, I naturally came here, hoping to meet Brother Xiang Tian. That one...... Didn't the king come? ”

Cang Xiangtian smiled back and said, "King Qian is now in Chenzhou, and he ordered me to come and help the Liang army." It's just that Lord Ye's troops are brave, and they don't need the help of our army, so they get Suzhou. ”

"Haha......" Yuanhang squinted his eyes and smiled, and said in his heart, you are a liar, since you have come to the assistant minister, you should go to our camp in advance to inform us, how can there be a reason to be stationed here for more than a month. Brother Xiang Tian, I can't hide it, I didn't expect the King of Qi to descend so quickly, and the more than 200,000 troops I prepared were useless. ”

Cang Xiangtian understood, the country of Qi has descended, and your army is still idle, which is a hint that I don't have nothing to do, lest the army be used on me.

Lord Ye laughed. Cang Xiangtian smiled a few times and continued: "I have received a clear indication from King Qian that since the Qi State is dead, our army will not stay in Suzhou, and will return to Chenzhou tomorrow. "Cang Xiangtian also said clearly, I will leave tomorrow, so that your 200,000 army will not be able to do it, and you will not chase it to Chenzhou.

"Oh, that Brother Xiangtian, when you go back to Chenzhou, please be sure to meet King Qian, and say hello to him on my behalf. In addition, please ask him to return to Saiwai as soon as possible, otherwise the King of Qi will have nowhere to go. The voyage pretended to be casual, but it made Cang Xiangtian confused.

"King Qi?" Cang Xiangtian was puzzled, staring at the voyage.

"Yes, my lord has crowned the king of Qi as the king of Chenzhou, and he will be given the title of Chenzhou, and the holy decree will arrive in a few days. That's why I said let King Qian return to Saiwai as soon as possible, otherwise King Chenzhou will arrive without a city, even if he is good at talking, he still has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and he will never agree to be stationed outside the city. The meaning of the voyage is obvious. If you don't let Chenzhou, I will let the King of Qi lead more than 100,000 troops from the old department to attack. If you can beat it, you will never be able to pout your anger. If you can't beat it, I will borrow your hand to kill the king of Qi and block everyone's mouth, and I will send troops to beat you again, and I will have an excuse.

"Brother Xiang Tian, can you hear me?" Yuanhang was stunned when he saw Cang Xiangtian, and shouted on the side.

"Oh, hear." Cang Xiangtian slowed down, nodded and said, "Lord Ye reminds me that when I return to Chenzhou, I will tell King Qian." King Qian also asked me to bring a few words, that is, when the alliance was formed, the adults said that the generation will be good forever. ”

"Rest assured, rest assured. As long as the king keeps his promise, our court will live in peace with him. After Yuanhang finished his business, he remembered the angry barbecue. Cang Xiangtian naturally would not be stingy, and he couldn't get up from the voyage, so he stayed in the Nubei camp this night. On the second day, he left the voyage, and after sending him away from Cang Xiangtian, he immediately ordered the camp to be set up, and the army returned to Chenzhou.

Back outside the city of Suzhou, Situ Hao was relieved to see that the voyage had returned safely.

"The Holy Lord has just sent an edict, ordering you and me to continue to the north and capture Chenzhou." Before Yuanhang's ass sat down, Situ Hao spoke.

"Chen Zhou is not in a hurry for the time being, I already have a plan." Yuanhang stood up again and said to Situ Hao: "The king of Qi has surrendered, and the saint will definitely give a city, so it is better to ask the saint to give Chenzhou to the king of Qi." This will keep him at bay and keep him away from Middle-earth in case something happens. ”

After hearing this, Situ Hao nodded again and again, praising the voyage for being very good. At that moment, the two of them discussed, and Situ Hao led the army to stay here for the time being, and rushed back to the back hall to ask for an order, so as to settle down in Suzhou as soon as possible.

The next day, Yuanhang handed over the troops and horses of the headquarters to Situ Hao, and only took Fu Yashi and Wuying with them, bid farewell to the generals, and left the Suzhou camp.

Following the way he came, the voyage passed through Guxin Mansion, Yin Tiancheng, Yibo, and Yanshun Mansion and returned to Jiangzhou. I carried a few chests of treasures with me, so I walked slowly. After entering the boundary of Jiangzhou, Yuanhang became anxious and urged everyone to rush to Fuzhong quickly.

After more than half a year, Yuanhang has seen Wanyue and them smiling at him countless times in his dreams, as well as the two children who have never met. Seeing the garrison from afar, Yuanhang's heart beat faster, and he couldn't control it.

Fuzhong is still the same, but the withered flower branches bloom with new life, and the tender green shoots herald the arrival of another spring.

"Bang", Yingyue, who turned the corner of the courtyard, suddenly saw the voyage standing under the branches and willows, and the wooden barrel in her hand fell to the ground in shock, covering her mouth with her little hand, and she was stunned on the spot.

"Yingyue, are you okay?" Yuanhang smiled and said a faint greeting. Yingyue nodded instinctively, then smiled happily, turned around and ran back.

"Your Excellency is back, your adult is back." The little girl's cheers went all the way to the back house, and Yuanhang pursed her lips and smiled, and followed with a step.

Seeing the rare sunny weather, Wan asked Qinghe to take a walk in the house. I heard Yingyue's cheers from afar, but I couldn't hear what she was shouting.

"This girl is spoiled by her sister, don't blame my sister." Wanyue looked sideways at Qinghe, and Qinghe smiled, "What my sister said, although Yingyue is a maid, who in the house doesn't regard her as his sister." Even if the minister is here, how can he be willing to blame her. ”

Yingyue panted and ran in, and when she saw that the two masters didn't care about the courtesy, she took her graceful arm and dragged it out, "Master, go quickly, the lord is back." ”

"What?" Wanyue was about to reproach her, but suddenly stood still, her body trembled slightly, and she stared out of the courtyard.

Qinghe stepped forward and asked tremblingly, "Is Xianggong back?" ”

Before the words fell, Yuanhang turned around the courtyard gate, and the figure appeared in the sight of the two of them. The second daughter froze instantly, and looked straight at the voyage.

"Wanyu, Qinghe, I'm back." Yuanhang strode forward and hugged both of her into his arms at the same time.

"Xianggong ......" The two of them woke up like a dream, hugged Yuanhang tightly and didn't let go, it seemed that after letting go, they would never catch it again, tears ran down their cheeks, wetting Yuanhang's shoulders.

Nephrite was in his arms, and Yuanhang felt two plump lumps on his chest...... No, it's the four soft balls that press against themselves tightly, rubbing back and forth with their chests with bad intentions.

Wanyue was immersed in happiness and didn't notice it, Qinghe was more sensitive, and immediately realized that the voyage was being bad again, and she smiled and dodged back, raising her hand and tapping him on the shoulder.

Yuan Voyage saw that Qinghe had run away, hugged Wanyue tightly with both hands, attached it to her ear, and said softly: "How can I have such a plump chest, I'm afraid I have to eat it tonight." ”

Wanyue felt that her chest was already wet, and she was blushing to her neck when Yuanhang said.

"It's not in shape, Xianggong go and see the child." Wanyue lowered her head and pushed away the voyage, and peeked at Qinghe with a red face.

"Oh yes, go see the kids." Yuanhang pulled them up one by one and walked towards the house, and asked uneasily, "Is it with a handle?" ”

The two girls were silent, and glared at him fiercely.
