Chapter 105: Chaos Resumes

After the battle of Xiliucheng, a total of 6,000 and 31 Zhou troops were annihilated and 172 people were captured, most of whom were newly recruited Xia auxiliary soldiers who joined the Zhou army for food. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Strictly speaking, the First Army did not win, more than half of the 10,000 soldiers who participated in the battle suffered casualties, and the sharp knife team led by Zhao Gou suffered seventy percent of the casualties, and only more than 30 people stood and withdrew from the battlefield.

Tragic, but not tragic, it will not be an army, and the first army that has to take the lead is worth it even if the whole army is annihilated. After the war, the soldiers who did not participate in the war were more attentive in their training, and the lesson of their comrades using blood interpreted "no sweat in peacetime, more blood in wartime".

In the early summer of May, the noon sun was also slightly hot in Dongping, far north, and the soldiers trained on the school field did not retreat despite sweating.

Zhao Zheng nodded with satisfaction, although it is easy to stand in a military posture, it is not easy to persevere. The situation has become more and more critical in the past few days, and he can't help but be careless.

The news that the ghost Jochi was killed by Ashina Yan spread throughout Donghu, and Ji Chong, who was chasing Sima Zhi, had already taken a class and was about to bypass Xiliu City and return to Xingdu along the White River.

Without Ashina Yanqing's elbow, Ghost Mutong won the throne without accident, proclaimed himself the Khan of the Mandate of Heaven, named Ji Chong the king of Canghai, and ordered him to return to Xingdu to discuss the country.

Kimeki was sincere, although he had always wanted to kill Ji Chong, the assassin he had used. But after killing several nephews, Shudu suddenly became difficult, refused the title of King of Liaodong, submitted to Heishan Wei strongly, and negotiated peace with Yan State.

The Qin and Jin dynasties withdrew from the war early, and Lin Hu and the Xiongnu suddenly attacked the mainland of the two countries, so they had no choice but to return to the dynasty with a triumphant voice, after all, the plundered cattle and sheep slaves were enough to make up for the expenses of the Northern Expedition.

Returning a thousand miles of land to Yan State, King Yan happily sacrificed to the sky, declared that the hegemony of King Zhao would be restored, and Yan State would make peace with the people by armistice and peace.

Shudu, who has no worries, led his troops to kill back, and the 100,000 tiger army has gone through a great battle, and it is extremely strong, even if it is a shocking thunder, it has captured a lot, and after the peace negotiation, he also bought thousands from Ji Dan.

Shudu is also a member of the Ghost Family, and he is the nephew of Ghost Shuchi by blood, although he is only three years younger than him, but he has the ambition to further ascend the throne and become the king.

The Tiger Capture Army is strong, and only the Blue Wolf Legion can fight with it, but Ji Chong is not the king of Qin, and he is also trying to seize the throne.

The Blue Wolf Legion went to the city of Xingdu, and the traces of the Beiting Flying Eagle Cavalry attacking the city still existed, and Ji Chong announced that the ghost eye Tong killed the monarch and stood on his own and was a pseudo-king. Cang'er is the only surviving relative of the ghost Shuchi, and when he is the king, the forbidden army in the city responds, and Ji Chong enters the royal city without a single soldier.

"General Ji Chong, a few days ago, a friend of yours came to the old man's mansion, let the old man say hello on his behalf." Su Mao looked at Ji Chong with pity, his hair was scattered, and he described it as withered.

Shudu controlled Montenegro Wei and killed many generals, Su Wensheng was among them, and the hope of the Su family's continuation came to naught, leaving behind some wine bags and rice bags.

Su Maosheng had nothing to love, and he dismissed the servants when Ji Chong was besieging the city, but he was waiting for this side with poison in his hands.

A woman came to the moon, claiming to be Ji Chong's friend, and caught up with Su Mao. The excuse for the bastard to go home, but Su Mao received her, and only later did he know that Ji Chong turned out to be the general of Gushan, and he was not the killer of the Xia people that Ghost Mutong said at all, and he was lucky to save the marquis.

Ji Chong was not surprised that his identity was revealed, Cang'er already knew his identity, and the Blue Wolf Legion was firmly controlled by Gushan.

Seeing that Su Mao, who had once leaned towards Donghu, was so embarrassed, Ji Chong sighed and said: "Su Xiang can't show his enthusiasm, but he will harm Donghu, watching you do things for forty years, I only see one point in the next, you are too greedy, and you think about yourself all the time." ”

Su Mao was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "That's right, that's right." The Su family has always been down, even if there is a brother Su Qin who is the prime minister of the six countries, he still can't stand in the house of Zhong Ming Dingshi.

The old man is for glory and wealth, as for the strong national strength and sufficient armor, these have nothing to do with the old man.

Reform for a lifetime, the so-called military training, restructuring also, or returning millions of Xia slaves to freedom and their ploughing, are all papier-mâché tigers, which are useless. ”

Speaking of this, Su Mao drank all the wine and collapsed to the ground.

Ji Chong watched coldly, it was already his greatest mercy to let Su Mao leave like this, and he still can't forget the two battles of attacking Yan planned by Su Mao, and his father was killed in the first battle.

"Ho~ho~, the loyal and righteous marquis... The old man has something to ask for, but... Not... Let... Soul Returns... Old... Inside"

Su Mao tilted his head, there was no longer a snort, and his eyes were still open to look at Ji Chong.

"I promise you", Ji Chong stared at him, turned around and ordered his subordinates to bury Su Mao, temporarily preserve it with lime, and bury him in the future.

After doing all this, Ji Chong was a little stunned, rationally he knew what he was going to do, and emotionally he always felt sorry for someone.

"Lord, the princess is waiting for you in the bedroom."

For half a month, from learning the news of the death of the ghost Shuchi to Xingdu, Cang'er was silent along the way, deliberately avoiding Ji Chong.

She sat on the bed with a plain face, and she was even more handsome in filial piety, if it was at any other time, Cang'er would have thrown Ji Chong on the bed, but at this time she was silent with tears.

The moment he entered the Hindu, Ji Chong told Cang'er his identity, an assassin, a Gushan spy, and a concubine at home, a baby, Cang'er didn't speak, and listened quietly.

The day before yesterday, Shudu sent a letter from Xijing City, supporting Cang'er as the king, but if she wanted her to marry herself, Shudu would be the husband of Queen Donghu.

Yesterday, the imperial doctor checked Cang'er's pulse, and since then she has sat in the room without saying a word, completely acquiescing to Ji Chong's taking the shadow guard to control Xingdu.

"I'm sorry, but I have to, you can hate me, you can even kill me, but you can't stop it."

Sometimes cold words work better than sweet words, and Cang'er turns his head to be pale, and his face is full of tears.

"Ashina Yan killed my brother Wang, did you help him?"

Donghu was in danger, and the armies from all walks of life left Hindu to quell the chaos in various places, and these Ji Chong could not deny his role in it. Even it was his idea to summon Ashina Yan to the south of King Qin, although he did not kill the ghost Jochi, but he did contribute.

"Helped, and a lot."

"Woo~~"

Tears rained down her ears, but she still heard this answer.

Ji rushed over and hugged her, she kept scuffling, crying: "Why, why, Brother Wang has been working hard for decades, ruling the country diligently, making the barren land of Donghu as rich as the Central Plains, why do you want to kill him?" ”

Ji Chong held her hand, stared at her eyes and said word by word: "The Great Khan is a good patriarch, but he is not a good monarch.

He devoted his life to promoting Chinese culture and realizing the Chinese spirit of his ancestors and the grassland physique, but that was too unrealistic.

The affluent environment corrupted the pro-reform aristocracy, while angering the conservative aristocracy led by King Zuo Xian.

Later, the Great Khan asked me about the Legalist rule of the country, and he wanted to take back the power that had been rewarded to the reformist nobles, and force himself to the opposite side of the Quandong Hu aristocracy.

His death is inevitable, even if Ashina Yan doesn't make a move, King Zuo Xian can't help it, you don't see how many lone wolf guard generals King Zuo Xian has bought. ”

"Brother Wang is so difficult, why do those people persecute him, and isn't Ashina Yan also a supporter of Chinese etiquette on weekdays?"

Ji Chong shook his head, feeling that it was time to take a political lesson with Cang'er, Donghu would still need to rely on her in the future, Gushan was just a vineman, and Li Daitao would need some time after all.

Ji Chong narrates all the flaws of the ghost Jochi's rule, sometimes brutal and sometimes wise, or he believes in family affection too much and does not use the king's vision to guard against his subordinates.

After talking for half an hour, Ji Chong's throat was thirsty, and Cang'er was smiling.

"You didn't want to hear it for a long time, why did you want me to talk about it for so long."

Cang'er smiled: "You sneaked into Xingdu to assassinate, and later lurked in the temple to steal my artifact, you will always be punished." ”

"Hey, then what are you going to do, expel me, and then lead the troops north to kill Ashinayan?"

"No, that's not revenge", Cang'er said with a straight face: "Brother Wang's lifelong dream is to realize the great cause of the ancestors, and I want to help him realize it." ”

Cang'er stroked her belly when she said this, and she had already replied to Shudu's letter, and the future king of Donghu was in her belly.

But the child's father had to help him defeat the contenders first, and now it seems that there is no problem.

The civil war in Donghu broke out again, the Central Plains was not at peace, the Northern Expeditionary Army on the West Road negotiated peace, and Diewei was finally able to return to Luoyi to report the news.

"Zhao Zheng is missing at sea, life and death are unknown!"

Ji Zhan stood up excitedly and said, forgetting that the messenger had been stranded in Liaodong for two months before returning.

"Your Highness wants to take Gushan, find Prince Dan instead..."

Ji Zhan flicked his robe, looked at the north and said with a smile: "Such a good thing, of course, I will do it myself." ”
