The first Hou Yuanzhi did not take long to retire, and Yang Zilu did not stay. Looking at the back of Hou Yuanzhi leaving, Yang Zilu deeply felt that there was no one around him who could give advice. There are only three people around him now: Hou Yuanzhi, Mang Gao, and Jiao Shuyan, among which Hou Yuanzhi has a good eye, and he is originally useful, but he can't see why he doesn't send troops, because his ability is limited.

And Manggao is really 'reckless', let alone count on him. Jiao Shuyan is a little better, but it is a little better than Mangao, who can only charge into battle, and can deal with some small problems. And neither of them is as good as Hou Yuanzhi, and this time even Hou Yuanzhi can't see the problem, let alone rely on them to give him advice. Thinking of this, Yang Zilu missed the days when Zigong and Houxiong were by his side.

In fact, the reason why Yang Zilu has not sent troops is because of the special situation at the moment. Shu Shudou and they are obviously loyal to Dongchu, and they are their enemies. But Fan Li can't be regarded as 'the enemy of the enemy is a friend', he is also his own enemy. Shu County rescued, logically speaking, it must be saved, if Fan Li gets Shu County, it will be more serious than Shu Shudou and their continued control of Shu County.

The problem is that Yang Zilu himself only has a thousand light cavalry on hand, if he goes to save Shu County. With Shu Shudou taking out all his strength at present, Shu Shudou knows that he will definitely not be able to hide it. In this way, ten of them will be in danger.

It is quite difficult for Yang Zilu to protect himself, because Yang Zilu only has a thousand light cavalry around him to protect his safety. But Uncle Shu fights him differently, not to mention that he can catch turtles in the urn in the city, and there are more than 4,000 people and thousands of people in the army, occupying the absolute main position.

But if they don't save it, they will let Gou Jian sit big, and even if they escape their assassination after they are saved, they will raise the anti-flag and let the contradictions be stimulated in advance, which is not what Yang Zilu wants to see.

According to Yang Zilu's plan, after solving the Chu State and Gou Jian, after one to two years of preparation, let Gongzi Shi give up Eastern Chu Chan to himself. Of course, there must be people in Eastern Chu who are not convinced, but at this time, he can also concentrate his forces to quell the civil strife in Eastern Chu.

And now that the contradiction broke out in advance, although Yang Zilu was sure to calm down, after all, the outbreak in advance also caught Shi Qi and them off guard, and they did not collude together. But the biggest problem at that time was not the rebellious Eastern Chu soldiers like Shi beggars. It was the state of Chu, because of the rebellion in Eastern Chu, it naturally restrained Yang Zilu's troops, and gave the state of Chu time to breathe. And Yue Guo is not bad, Yue Guo also has the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. At that time, Yang Zilu was completely unsure of the situation, and Yang Zilu couldn't say how out of control the situation would be.

And it is impossible to say that this chaos lasted too long, so that after King Chu Hui was able to breathe a sigh of relief, there was still time to free his hands and solve the attack of the Qin State. Without the containment of Qin, Chu had enough troops to fight Yang Zilu again and regain the lost territory. And at that time, Yang Zilu didn't know that he had solved Shi Qi and Gou Jian, and they didn't.

Yang Zilu is really in a dilemma now, neither can he be saved, nor can he be saved.

"Lord! All Chen begs to see! ”

"Du Chen? Missing! Yang Zilu frowned and said with some dissatisfaction.

"No!" The soldier answered and retreated, but it didn't take long for the soldier's voice to sound again, only this time a little more helpless. "Lord, Du Chen said that he sent medicine to untie the knot in the Lord's heart!"

"Heart knots?" When Yang Zilu heard the name Du Chen, she was about to say no, but after listening to the latter words, Yang Zilu had some understanding. Yang Zilu touched the beard on his lips, was silent for a while, and said, "Let him come to see the widow!" ”

"No!" The soldier answered outside the door.

It didn't take too long for Du Chen to push open the door, walk into the room, and salute Yang Zilu: "Minister, Du Chen, I've seen the Lord!" ”

"Alright, don't talk nonsense. Tell me what kind of heart disease the widow is! If you are wrong, go and lead the army yourself! Yang Zilu said impatiently. Although Yang Zilu agreed to meet Du Chen, she didn't really believe in Du Chen, she just had the mentality of giving it a try, but if Du Chen was wasting her time, Yang Zilu didn't mind letting Du Chen be used as a sandbag to let herself vent.

Du Chen Wenyan still maintained a calm appearance, because of the relationship between his face, he showed a smile that was not much better than crying, and said: "Is the Lord worried about saving or not saving Shu County?" ”

When Yang Zilu heard this, she showed a look of amazement, Yang Zilu didn't ask Du Chen why he was annoyed because he couldn't save Shu County. Du Chen was able to say this, and he already knew that Du Chen had thought of it.

Yang Zilu pondered for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "You probably understand the reason, but the widow is strange, why do you understand that the widow is worried about this matter?" If you guess wrong, I'm afraid you will have a bad image in the eyes of the widow, and it will have a lot of impact on your future promotion, aren't you afraid? ”

Du Chen said frankly: "It's almost noon now, but the Lord still hasn't sent troops yet." For this reason, the only thing I am worried about is about Shu County. But this minister is not sure, so when he asked the soldiers to report, he just used the ordinary words to ask for a meeting first, but if the lord did not see him, the minister was seven or eight points sure, and the lord was worried about the affairs of Shu County. So there was a second request to see, and after learning that the Lord was willing to receive the minister, the minister's heart was nine points certain! ”

Speaking of this, Chen paused, and then said: "Of course, it is also possible that the Lord is worried about other things, but everything has to be risked, just to see if this risk is worth taking!" In the eyes of the minister, this risk is worth it, because the minister's heart is very big, and although the county guard is very good, the minister wants to become the master's humerus. ”

Yang Zilu glanced at Du Chen meaningfully and said, "It's a good thing that you have a big heart, but it's good not to be too big." ”

Yang Zilu said, didn't give Du Chen time to explain, and then said: "Okay, you tell the widow about what you can do to solve the current problem!" ”

When Du Chen heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, knowing that he had passed Yang Zilu's test. Du Chen organized the language and said: "The patriots in Shu County and other places are just Shu Shudou of Shu County, Qianxian County Commander, Tongyi Yizai and others, plus their cronies are no more than ten people!" Others are either undetermined or just wall-sticking. Only the Lord can save them from a few of them! ”

Yang Zilu nodded thoughtfully when she heard this, and asked, "How to get rid of it?" ”

Du Chen had already prepared, and as soon as Yang Zilu's voice fell, he spoke: "The lord went to the six counties first, and the six county commanders were also ready to rely on the lord to repel the Vietnamese army, plus they didn't know that the lord already knew about them, so they wouldn't be on guard." The lord first asked the six counties to be stamped on the grounds of gathering soldiers and horses to rescue Shu County, and mobilized soldiers and horses from all over the country and their chief officials to come. Wait until you reach the six counties, or the other mobilization places designated by the Lord. The Lord can use the name of reward to set up a banquet for the generals. At the banquet, in the name of Qianxian County Commander and Tongyi Yizai and his cronies, they were killed. Send fast horses to Qianxian and Tongyi again, and kill their remaining cronies! ”

Yang Zilu hesitated and asked, "I'm afraid that the generals in the army will have doubts." ”

"Just doubts! Only the Lord can cut through the mess with a quick knife! Du Chen said.

When Yang Zilu heard this, he touched his beard, nodded after a while and said, "Well, this is good, but what about Uncle Shu?" The widow can't use him to fornicate with the country, right? This is also too far-fetched, and it won't take long, only he knows about the death of Qianxian County Commander and Tongyi Yizai, he must have known that the widow knows about them, and he will definitely make a quick mess. ”

Du Chen said calmly: "Only if the Lord pretends to pay attention to it, then Uncle Shu will definitely be very concerned about the Lord's injuries if he is bent on making trouble." As the saying goes, caring is chaos. Only when the siege of the Vietnamese army is lifted, Shu Shudou will definitely rush to the barracks to visit the lord quickly. At this time, the lord only had to pay attention to isolating Shu Shudou from contact with other generals, and when he arrived in the big tent, the lord could use a name to cover up with an illness and death. Even if the other generals were puzzled, at this time, they probably understood that the Lord had discovered what Shu Shudou and the others had done. The Lord didn't mention it, but they also understood that the Lord meant that the big things were small and the small things were nothing, so where would they make this matter bigger? ”

When Yang Zilu heard this, he clapped his palms and praised: "Good! Du Chen, only if you solve Gou Jian, the widow will appoint you as the county guard of Lujiang County! ”

Yang Zilu frowned when he saw Du Chen, and said comfortingly: "Although it is the county guard of Lujiang County, it is not that the widow does not pay attention to your talent in this arrangement. But Lujiang County is very important, and it is an important rear for the widows to deal with the Yue Kingdom, and it is not safe to hand it over to other people. After pacifying the Yue Kingdom, you also have enough honors, and the widow can promote you, do you understand the hard work of the widow? ”

Du Chen bowed his head and said: "Chen Chen understands that he was dissatisfied with the lord's decision before, and the minister really lived the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!" Rebuke the Lord! ”

Yang Zilu soothed: "What's there to scold here, it's normal for you to think like this." In this battle, you should also mobilize your troops and horses and set off with the widows. Well, we'll leave tomorrow at noon! You also have time to recruit soldiers. ”

"No!" Du Chen replied with some joy.

The next day, Du Chen recruited 300 nationals, together with the county soldiers of the six counties, a total of 1,200 people, and set off with Yang Zilu towards Qianxian County.

After arriving in Qianxian County, Yang Zilu acted according to Du Chen's strategy. Yang Zilu thought that he was the Marquis of Han, and although the Eastern Chu army now obeyed his orders, the county soldiers of Eastern Chu were different from those armies. Yang Zilu asked the Qianxian county order to be sealed, and ordered soldiers and horses from all over the country to assemble in Zongyong Mountain.

Zongyong Mountain is about 100 miles away from Shu County, and Yang Zilu did this in order to put on the appearance that he would send troops to rescue Shu County after he had mobilized his troops and horses. When the Qianxian county magistrate heard this, he did not suspect him, and after seeing the seal and location of the Qianxian county order, Tongyi Yizai also did not suspect him in general.

After they arrived at Zongyong Mountain, Yang Zilu immediately set up a banquet to reward the generals. At the banquet, in the name of immediately fornicating with the two of them, the two of them had not yet reacted, and they had already been clicked by Mangao and Jiao Shuyan with one knife. Seeing this, the henchmen of the two still wanted to resist, and the Yulin Army, who had been prepared outside, immediately rushed in and killed the two cronies who resisted to death.

At this time, the generals who came to the banquet reacted, and of course some people raised doubts, saying that Yang Zilu was a little arbitrary. Yang Zilu didn't prepare to make a statement! His answer was so righteous that it was speechless. "The letters are all here, if you really want to find out, then Shu County can't save it? If the investigation is carried out secretly, then if the two of them really have an affair with the country, wouldn't it cost the lives of everyone here? When you say this, isn't it also fornicating with the country? ”

As soon as these words came out, there were still people there who dared to say anything more! Wouldn't Yang Zilu be labeled as an adulteration in the country. Their highest official position is now Du Chen, you can see what kind of little people these are, and it is already great courage to raise this doubt in front of Yang Zilu just now.

Yang Zilu saw that no one dared to ask questions about the generals anymore, so naturally he would not do it himself. Yang Zilu still knows the truth of a radish in one hand and a stick in the other, Yang Zilu immediately asked people to clean up the scene and reopen the banquet again.

When the generals saw this situation, they all shut their mouths. There are no questions, and pretending to be stupid and having money to take, people with a little IQ know what to choose.

Yang Zilu immediately sent Mang Gao and Jiao Shuyan to each lead a hundred light cavalry to Qianxian and Tongyi to clear the remnants of Qianxian County Ling and Tongyi Yizai. Taking advantage of the time when the two went back and forth, Yang Zilu reorganized the soldiers and horses in Zongyong Mountain. At this time, the number of the Eastern Chu army was 4,000 people, plus the 1,000 light cavalry under Yang Zilu, there were already 5,000 people.

But these people are all rabble, and Yang Zilu will not think that he can defeat the 10,000 Vietnamese army under Fan Li's command by relying on these people. As long as these Eastern Chu armies belonging to different parts are also run-in, at least let them learn to put up a phalanx and not fight separately.

The Eastern Chu army assembled in Zongyong Mountain, because Yang Zilu did not play his banner, although Fan Li knew, but Fan Li did not pay enough attention to it.

Of course, this is also due to the fact that Fan Li does not have enough troops under his command. At present, there are 4,000 soldiers in Shuxian County, and more than 3,000 people. Although Zongyong Mountain is not a place with a favorable geographical advantage, the Eastern Chu army has a camp to rely on, if he goes to attack him, he will send more troops, and it is easy to be killed by the Eastern Chu army in Shu County and intercept his own back road. If there are fewer troops sent, they can't capture the opponent's camp if they go, and they can't give the other party an army, so Fan Li simply concentrated on attacking Shu County.

Of course, Fan Li was not stupid, and sent a lot of scouts to investigate the situation of Zongyong Mountain, not to mention, but also informed the whole army to guard the west. Once Zongyongshan's Eastern Chu army is out of battle, then Fan Li will pack up his troops to the east of Shu County, depending on the situation. Continue to attack Shu County, or make a detour to attack other cities, or retreat to Chao County.

PS: The second shift arrived, the time was a little tight, and the third shift probably didn't come until after 12 o'clock in the evening. Today is already Sunday, so don't wait for those who are going to work and school tomorrow, seize the time to rest.
