Thousands of miles away in Junzhou, Song Jixu didn't know that there were people talking about him elsewhere at this time, and the topic of this discussion was too naïve, what is called "broken head"? Although he is not very clever in some things, he has been able to get to this point, at least it shows that he is not stupid.

Although this is inseparable from the guidance of a master, as an uncompromised executor, he is definitely competent.

It's just that at this time, he seems to have lost the stability and confidence of his "own backer", and he has become a little anxious.

"There has been no news from the master for more than three months, and Mr. Wu has no news from the master?" He paced back and forth in the tent for a long time, asking where there was no one in the tent.

Strange to say, it is clear that there is no one else in this military tent, but as soon as his words fell, someone responded to him, although it was only a simple word "no", but he could still be sure that someone must be hiding in other parts of this military tent.

Obviously, this answer is already known to Song Jixu, and it must not be the first time he has asked like this, he asked this way over and over again, he himself didn't know what he was trying to express, but there was always a clear meaning: Song Jixu at this time needed the guidance of his master!

And this "guru" is naturally Pei Pu.

More than three months have passed since Pei Pu left Junzhou a few years ago, but Pei Pu has not shown a single face, and not a word of news has come back, even his student - if it can be regarded as true - Wu Hui does not know where he has gone.

In fact, Pei Pu often disappears is not a matter of one or two times, the key is that he used to reply to a letter every once in a while, and now three months is not too long, but after all, he is at the time of making an idea, and Song Jixu needs Pei Pu to help him guide him in this matter.

So, what did Pei Pu do? A few years ago, he followed Li Fengqi's breath to Xizhou, and made a promise to kill flowers and hate willows in half a year, and he was with Li Fengqi for most of the first half of the three months, on the one hand, he was guarding against the other party's disadvantage to Song Jixu, and on the other hand, he was also looking for an opportunity to hit the other party in one fell swoop; And in the last ten days, no one knows where he has gone, since Li Fengqi began to have the ability to "choose" this heaven and invited him to stop this matter, he has completely disappeared from people's field of vision - to be precise, it has disappeared from the vision of those who know him, probably no one except Li Fengqi can roughly know which direction he has gone, right?

At this time, it is really normal for Song Jixu to not find Pei Pu, but for Song Jixu, the loss of not being able to find Pei Pu may be greater than the loss that others can't find. It's like a cane for a person with normal movements, maybe it's just a scepter that symbolizes status in his hand, or a weapon used to scare a vicious dog, but for a person who doesn't move well, a cane is a tool that makes him walk faster and easier, and its significance is still slightly different from the meaning of being used as a decoration and weapon.

Obviously, for Song Jixu, Pei Pu is more important than the so-called weapons and tools, even if it is higher than his personal life, if he can get a positive commitment from Pei Pu, he will definitely give his life to the other party.

It is precisely because of this that it is easier for Song Jixu to have two extreme situations: when he has Pei Pu, he is not afraid of making mistakes in doing things, and he also has confidence in his heart, and he has to be courageous; When he couldn't find Pei Pu, he was afraid to let go, and it was very likely that he would watch the great opportunity slip away in front of him as he did now.

Yesterday, there was a secret report of the military situation, Weizhou is now empty of defense, and the 5,000 Chongsha troops of Xizhou, who originally helped to defend it, withdrew from Weizhou more than three months ago, although their whereabouts are unknown, but it is also an indisputable fact that there are no strong troops in Weizhou.

When he heard the news, Song Jixu's first reaction was not joy, he just wanted to chop up the person who sent the information and feed it to the dog on the spot!

The news from three months ago, only now has it been discovered, could it be that those who are in charge of spying on the military during these three months are sleeping in the winter? What a bunch of idiots!

However, he could only curse in his heart, after all, this matter had been reported for so long, and it was a misfortune for Weizhou: they might have been worried that the news of the internal emptiness would be found out elsewhere at first, but after a while, this worry would inevitably gradually relax, thinking that things were done quite hidden, and their vigilance against things like raids would be much lower - maybe the best time to do it again at this time!

Regarding the withdrawal of the Chongsha Army from Weizhou, it was originally most likely that Song Changgong should know first - this naturally also excludes the fact that Hua Hate Liu and others knew in advance, but during this period of time, Song Changgong has devoted his energy mainly to the matter of "digging ancestral graves", and many things have no time to take care of one by one and deal with them personally, of course, the affairs in the army will not be managed by Yan Wufeng for the time being, but he must worry more about government affairs. In addition to being able to arrange some people to help him share some small things, he will inevitably take care of the rest of the things, and it is easy to make mistakes.

The letter reporting that Yang Jun led the five thousand Chong Xuan troops to leave Weizhou and go to Queensland has been pressed in the big tent that he set up in the imperial mausoleum of Zhenzhou and was used as a government office, where in addition to the various new requests sent every day, there are also a few books that Song Changgong used to pass the time, the last time he was only a little more tired and couldn't open his eyes, so he took a small fold as a bookmark and inserted it into the book, and since then there has been little leisure time, The little fold has been sandwiched in the book and has never been opened.

If it was dismantled, he was afraid that he would send Yan Wuli to send 10,000 people to defeat the Dingdu City no matter what!

The Chongsha Army and Hei Yuwei are both ace troops in Xizhou, but the functions of the two are not the same, the latter is specially used for the personal safety of important people in the state, such as Yang Wu, Yang Jiuguan, Yang Duan, Old Man Yang, etc.; However, the Chongsha Army is different, to put it cruelly, the Chongsha Army is used to send death, but this kind of "sending death" has its ferocity - that is, it is to send death, and it is necessary to pull the other party's three or five people on the back in order to die, die thoroughly, die without regrets, and die without regrets.

No matter which army encounters the rushing army, it must first weigh whether it is willing to afford this blood capital -- it is a real blood capital! If you dare to be tough, it is distressing, and the first wave has failed, and you must continue to grind with it with a hard head and a cold heart; If you don't dare, avoid it as soon as possible and roll away, so as not to be entangled by the other party and dragged into the meat grinder battle of "blood capital".

If Song Changgong knew, he would dare to make a bloody capital - what is the reason?

Naturally, because of one of them, he has been in Zhanzhou for a long time, and naturally knows the fierceness of this rushing army, if he does not get rid of it as soon as possible, let them take root in Dingzhou, and in the future, he will expand to the south and expand to Guanrao, etc., it is a "sharp blade" behind the back that must be carefully guarded against, and a bloody wound will be stabbed on the body if he is not careful, this threat is terrible even if he thinks about it, in order to avoid being restrained by this in the future, he can be regarded as a thorough realization of "long pain is not short pain".

The second reason is that the Chong Sha army entered Queensland, which means that after this, he will completely tear his face with Xizhou, Queensland, and Yanzhou. Why? This also starts from when the Dingdu City was forcibly occupied by the Guanrao coalition army, he asked Sichou Zhai to temporarily take over the Dingdu City, and it had already been stated that this city was managed by Sichou Zhai, since it was managed, then the guards in it could not be Sichou Zhai's, but he Song Changgong's own Lanling Palace.

At the beginning, except for Mo Fu's efforts to get the position of acting city lord for the Sichou Zhaimen named Xu Yiyi, the soldiers and generals in charge of the city defense in the city were all his own people - but with Mo Fu's death, these have changed a lot, Tian Gong, who was sent first, completely turned against him, and with the rebellion of the generals, this person who followed him and was like a personal soldier, naturally would no longer pay attention to his words Song Changgong.

In this sense, the entire Dingdu City has become the bag of people's sorrows.

Now with the arrival of the 5,000 Chongsha Army, it won't be long before the entire Queensland will basically become the private property of Xizhou or Sichouzhai!

If he had seen this "little excerpt" at the beginning, he would naturally take quick action to remedy it, but unfortunately, until Song Jixu, who was far away in the south, got the news, he still kept an eye on the progress of digging the grave every day, and from time to time he personally ran to the soldiers, and went to stones, digging soil, and transporting corpses with a group of despicable people.

The reason why the corpses began to be transported was because now that the battle between Guan and Rao had officially begun, every night there were smelly corpses that were transported to a few ice warehouses that were temporarily picked up in the imperial tomb, and it was just the beginning, so Song Changgong still had time to guide the people around him on what to do.

Time was spent on this matter, and the plan to retake Queensland could only be frustrated. Because of this, he also has one less way to continue to expand his territory and increase his strength - to defeat Weizhou and annex Weizhou.

Song Jixu had this idea, but because there was no news of Pei Pu, and no one told him whether it was right or wrong to do so, he could only keep an eye on Weizhou and not notice it, while praying that the master would come back quickly and provide him with a foolproof answer.

"Mr. Wu, you have spent the longest time with your Guru, and you should be the one who knows Guru best...... I wonder what kind of attitude the Guru would have if the King wanted to do such a thing, according to what you know about the Guru? When the prayer failed, Song Jixu's heart was moved, and it could be regarded as "seeking medical treatment in a hurry", and he remembered that at this time there was a person close to the guru in his big tent - did you ask him that the results he got could represent the attitude of the guru?

This time, although the answer in the emptiness was not what he had been hoping for, once the other party said it, he still felt especially admiration.

I only heard the voice say: "The will of the people is high, and it cannot be guessed." ”

This sentence couldn't help but Song Changgong was ashamed, and he repeatedly called no, and hurriedly bowed to the strange "spiritual position" that had been in the tent, and it was only after a while of confusion that he stabilized down.

"If you're not in a hurry, you might as well wait." Seeing Song Changgong suffering from such gains and losses, the man may also feel funny, and was silent for a while before saying, "If you are in a hurry......

"Huh? How about being in a hurry? Song Changgong seemed to have a deep meaning in his words, and asked cautiously.

"If you're in a hurry, you do it."

"Do it?" Song Changgong was a little unsure, he must have been accustomed to obeying his master's arrangement for so long, but he ignored or even ignored his thoughts intentionally or unintentionally.

At this time, the other party actually said that if he couldn't wait, he would first decide whether he should attack Weizhou or not, is this feasible or not?

"What if I make the wrong choice?" Song Changgong did not lose his mind, he was thinking about the gains and losses little by little in his heart, and asked again to the void.

"Wrong?" The man heard a sneer and didn't wait for Song Jixu to speak, and then said, "When did the master have no way to pass? No matter how big the difficulty is, as long as there is a guru, there will be no worries. ”

"This ...... That's right! As soon as he heard this, Song Jixu was "excited" in his heart, and began to weigh the pros and cons of whether he could fight Weizhou or not, and whether he could beat Weizhou, and said happily after a while: "If I fight Weizhou at this time, I am fifty percent sure that I can beat it." ”

At this time, Weizhou is almost fighting. Especially the previous blows from Shinshu and Jizhou, it is difficult for Xiao Shurang to reach his former strength, and the internal talents are slowly close to exhaustion...... With that in mind, your odds of winning will increase to at least 70%. ”

"Yes, this king didn't take this into account just now!" As soon as he heard these words, Song Jixu laughed happily and continued to imagine: "If this king gives the order to attack at this time, it will be to convey the order to Xinzhou, which is closer to Weizhou, and it will also take a day and a night, and at the same time, besieging Weizhou is bound to be not a simple matter, and it should not end for the time being, just wait for the master to come back while fighting, if the master thinks it is appropriate, increase the number of troops and continue to fight, if it is not suitable, it will not hurt for us to withdraw directly, right?" ”

"It really should be." The void nodded in response. Because he couldn't see his expression, Song Jixu didn't know whether the smiling words in his tone were encouragement or appreciation.

"Okay, that's it!" As I said before, although Song Jixu's head is not very smart, he is an executor who pays great attention to efficiency. Regardless of whether this decision was made by himself or for him by Guru Pei Pu, once it was made, it must be vigorously and resolutely pushed forward.

"Someone ...... coming"

"Newspaper—"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the sound of a report coming out a little far outside the big tent, originally Song Jixu was still a little annoyed, but after the person who reported came in and told him the content of the escape report, not only Song Jixu was curious, but also the person hidden in the void, but also held his breath, wanting to hear what the purpose of the comer was and what he said.

"Let him come in first!" Song Jixu waved his hand and let the person outside the tent come in, and after the soldiers were ordered to withdraw, the herald entered the tent, but before he could ask Song Jixu what to do, he was driven out by Song Jixu with a wave of his hand.

The matter of attacking Weizhou is naturally important, but the people from Xiangzhou came to him at this time to discuss "important matters", which seems to have more extraordinary significance?

Song Jixu intuitively felt that there must be surprises and surprises in this, so he decided to see this envoy first, and then comprehensively consider the matter of Weizhou.

"In Xiaxiangzhou, the deacon of the Dou clan, Dou Jinglun, has seen His Royal Highness the King of Guangling."

In addition to the several elders and elected patriarchs of the Dou clan, the specific person responsible for implementing the policies within the clan is a deacon like Dou Jinglun, generally the status of such people is not high compared to the elders, but the real power in their hands is much higher than that of a single elder, which is also a disadvantage of this mechanism, that is, when making decisions above, a group of people need to discuss to get a result, and when it falls on the people below, it only needs a small number of people to supervise the implementation. This can also easily lead to the fact that the person in charge of the matter has more power or interests in his hands, forming an undesirable situation of "subduing the upper part".

This kind of thing has happened many times in the history of various clans, such as the Dou clan, the Song clan, and even the Yang clan in Xizhou, the Kong clan in Raozhou, and the Di clan in Guanzhou.

Even though they all understand the disadvantages of deacons, there is still no way to improve this mechanism, and the reason is very simple - this is also the "way of heaven", but it is not strict enough to slowly wear out the vitality of a clan, as long as you pay more attention to the selection of deacons and choose more people from your own clan, this kind of "overturning" can also be delayed or even avoided for a long time.

Song Jixu doesn't care much about Dou Jinglun's identity, what he cares about is whether Dou Jinglun comes on behalf of Xiangzhou or on behalf of the Dou family, and more importantly, the purpose of his coming here is to make trouble with a war letter, or to talk about cooperation and making friends.

"I am entrusted by the patriarch Dou Jianzhang to come here to do allegiance." Dou Jinglun smiled, looked at Song Jixu with a blank face, bowed slightly and saluted: "If His Royal Highness agrees, the fall of Xizhou is just a matter of day and night......"
