On the top of the main hall, in front of the courtiers of the Liang Kingdom, Ouyang Xun generously persuaded Xiao Mo not to surrender.

The wind and rain outside the hall were shaking, and Xiao Miao's face was gloomy, obviously a little undecided.

At this time, Cen Wenwen took a step forward and said: "Zhao Guogui may not know something, the main force of our army has been defeated by the Tang army at the mouth of the Qing River, the general Wen Shihong lost tens of thousands of divisions, and the entire naval division was wiped out. Even if Zhao Guo came to help all the way, how could he help, and now you persuade my lord not to descend to the Tang Dynasty, isn't it a mistake for my lord. ”

Ouyang Xun glanced at Cen Wenwen and said, "Cen Shilang, I heard that at the beginning of the Liang State, there were 400,000 armoured divisions in the state, but now just because of the defeat of Wen Shihong, have you lost your courage?" At the beginning of the founding of the Han Gaozu, there were 70 big battles, 40 small battles, and when the defeat was the worst, even his wife and children could be pushed off the car. Now that Liang Guo is far from such an embarrassing situation, why did he give up so easily? ”

"Ridiculous, Li Xiaogong, Li Jing's 100,000 army Chen soldiers are outside the city of Jiangling, and there are only 5,000 soldiers and horses in the city, do you say that you can retreat the enemy army without giving up?"

Ouyang Xun said to Xiao Miao: "Your Majesty, if you can fight, you will fight, if you can't fight, you will go, Li Tang Shuishi will go down the river, Jiangling City will not be able to hold it, we might as well abandon Jiangling and make a comeback." ”

Hearing Ouyang Xun say this, several generals of Liang Guo also said: "Your Majesty, what Zhao Guogui's envoy said is yes, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood." It's better to take a step back for the time being and abandon Jiangling. ”

Xiao Mo listened to it and sighed: "I, Xiao Mill, started a family and established the Liang State single-handedly, in Jiangling, if I lose this and flee, how can I see the Jiangdong fathers." ”

Ouyang asked: "Your Majesty can't learn from the overlord of Chu, you can be arrogant, the eldest husband can advance and retreat, stretch and contract, and if you lose it, you will fight back in the future." ”

The generals also said one after another: "If Your Majesty wants to leave." We and other Jiangling people are willing to bring their families and mouths with His Majesty. The generals below also agreed, but the courtiers who advocated surrendering to Li Tang did not speak.

Xiao Mo sighed after hearing this: "Where can the widow retreat now?" ”

Cen Wenwen sneered: "Jiaozhou Assassin Shi Qiuhe, Changshi Gao Shilian, Sima Du Zhisong, have already raised the flag and led Jiaozhou to surrender to Tang, as well as the generals Zhang Zhenzhou and Wang Renshou. At the moment, it is difficult to guarantee that other assassins do not have this mind. ”

Ouyang Xun reprimanded: "Where are you talking about this, the Liang State has a strong foundation, how can there be no loyal ministers, are they all anti-ministers?" ”

At this time, a courtier debuted: "Weichen Baoju, Yuzhang County Assassin Shi Suhuer, this person is loyal to Daliang." Moreover, his wife and children are all in Gangneung. If you surrender Yuzhang County, you can also protect the left and several counties of Yichun County. ”

Cen Wenwen said: "Your Majesty, there is Lin Shihong in the east of Yuzhang County, and Feng Ang in the south, the place is not quiet, and His Majesty really wants to move the capital to Yuzhang County?" ”

Xiao Mo was puzzled when he heard this: "I have always been at odds with Lin Shihong, if I withdraw to Yuzhang County." I'm afraid he won't break with me. ”

Ouyang asked: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, Li Yuan's attack on Jiangling will not stop here, how can he not know the truth of cold lips and teeth." Let Zai go to Jiujiang and persuade Lin Shihong that he will not embarrass His Majesty, but will fight the Tang Army with His Majesty. ”

Xiao Mo was overjoyed when he heard this: "With your envoy's words, I will feel much more at ease." So far, what else do I have to say, although Yuzhang County is remote, but presumably Li Tang is also beyond the reach of the whip, I decided to take the queen and the clan to Yuzhang County, what do you think? ”

When the ministers heard this, they all said, "We are willing to follow His Majesty." ”

Even Cen Wenwen and the others stopped speaking at the moment. Hearing this, Xiao Mill said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you for believing in me Xiao Mill." I will never abandon my Xiao family, and I will not treat anyone lightly. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Mill paused and asked Ouyang: "Your envoy went back to return to Emperor Zhao, and said that I, Xiao Mill, would not give up, but now I have lost my teacher and lost my land." is really a shameless person who sees the world. Later, Liang Guoyi was willing to be Emperor Zhao's majesty. ”

This remark was said in front of the ministers, and Xiao Miao's meaning was obviously to belong to Zhao Guo. Of course, there is also the meaning of borrowing the power of Zhao to protect himself.

Ouyang Xun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty's words, I will definitely tell the Son of Heaven, and I ask Your Majesty to take care of it now." ”

Xiao Mo listened and nodded.

Ouyang Xun and his entourage of Zhao envoys left Jiangling, but they saw that Jiangling City was busy. Xiao Mo left Jiangling City in a hurry, and the soldiers fought with the people, and there was a panic.

Ouyang Xun sighed and said: "Liang is also a big country, if it is defeated in a war, it will be defeated like a mountain, and the people have no heart to fight again, speaking of which is that Xiao Mo has not benefited the people, otherwise how could it be." ”

Ouyang Xun sighed and entered the cabin. "Let's go, let's go to Jiujiang and meet this Lin Shihong for a while."

In the chaos, his ship was inevitably attacked by the people at the dock, but was stopped by the soldiers of the Liang army.

"What kind of ship is this, why don't you let us get on board?"

The soldier scolded: "Bastard, this is the ship of the envoy of the Zhao State, do you dare to stop it?" All the people suddenly watched the boat slowly descend down the river.

Jiujiang County, Huangcheng County.

At present, Jiujiang County is the base of Chu Emperor Lin Shihong.

Ouyang Xun looked at the information collected by Lin Shihong on the boat, and said to himself: "Lin Shihong, a person from Poyang, is heroic and straightforward, good at martial arts, and strategic, and in the twelfth year of the great cause, he begged for troops with his fellow townsmen, and then the master begged to die, Lin Shihong led his people, defeated the Sui army in Poyang Lake, and killed the Sui general Liu Ziyi, and the number reached more than 100,000. At first, he was called the king of Nanyue, and later he was called the imperial name Chu. ”

"Chu State and Lingnan Governor Feng An, Liang State Xiao Milling are both gaps, Xiao Milling once sent the general Su Huer to break Yuzhang County and seize the land of Chu State. Lin Shihong was defeated, and he retired to Jiujiang and trained the sailors. ”

Ouyang Xun read the letter, and said in his heart that if Lin Shihong had taken the opportunity of Xiao Mill's defeat and invaded Xiao Mill's territory eastward, then Xiao Mill would have to suffer from the enemy on his back and it would be difficult to support him. At present, he has entered Jiujiang to persuade Lin Shihong to let the two of them join forces to protect themselves, and they can also defend the southeast half of the country and restrain the eastward advance of the Tang army. But if Lin Shihong disagreed, the Liang State would really perish.

The boat arrived in Jiujiang County in a few days.

As soon as Ouyang Xun arrived in Jiujiang, he saw that on the river, there were many warships, and the Chu army was training sailors here, which was obviously very meaningful to trace the eastward march of the river.

Ouyang Xun's warship was immediately intercepted by the Chu warship, and as soon as the Chu sergeant boarded the ship, he intended to loot the entire ship, apparently greedy for the ship's property. Ouyang Xun couldn't help frowning when he saw this. With the Chu army's expression, Lin Shihongyan was able to defend the southeast in front of famous generals such as Li Xiaogong and Li Jing.

Ouyang Xun immediately revealed the identity of the envoy of Zhao State and asked to see Lin Shihong.

Ouyang Xun immediately entered Huancheng County with the warships of the Chu army

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, and the land of Jiujiang was quite peaceful. Jiangnan has always been the land of fish and rice, so even if there is a slight turmoil. But it will soon be able to recover. Entering the city, Ouyang Xun had not yet stayed in the residence, but he heard that Lin Shihong had come to see him in person.

Ouyang Xun looked at Lin Shihong, this person was originally a small official on Poyang Lake, once the wind and clouds would have today, as soon as he saw Ouyang Xun, he said: "Zhao Guogui's envoy is coming." I'm not far away. ”

Ouyang Xun hurriedly said: "Don't dare, Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five, and you can't be so generous to your Majesty." ”

Lin Shihong laughed and said: "Where is it, the emperor of Zhao State has newly broken Goguryeo, and he has the whole territory of Shandong and the Central Plains." Even I, who am in the middle of nowhere, am in awe. However, Emperor Zhao wants to sweep the world, and I, Lin Shihong, just want to do Zhao Tuo's hegemony, what do you want to teach me when you come all the way here? ”

Zhao Tuo was a Qin general, and after the fall of the Qin Dynasty, he established the Nanyue Kingdom in the Lingnan area and established himself as the emperor, and later declared himself a vassal to the Han Dynasty.

Lin Shihong's words can be said to be self-described ambitions, and the line is drawn clearly. It is easy to say what everyone has to say in the negotiations on this basis.

Ouyang asked: "My lord didn't intend to sweep the world, but he saw that Li Tang had no way and the people were suffering, so he raised an army to fight." Does Emperor Chu think so? ”

Lin Shihong smiled and was noncommittal. Ouyang Xun took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, right now, Li Yuan sent the general Li Xiaogong, and Li Jing has broken Xiao Milling. Even in dozens of states of Xialiang State, I came from Jiangling, and saw that the whole river was full of Tang warships, and the boats were innumerable. Li Tang broke the Liang country. If you have to look at Shu, the next step is the state of Chu. ”

Lin Shihong said: "Li Tang and I, we have always used well water to not invade river water, why did Li Yuan come to attack me for no reason?" ”

Ouyang Xun said with a smile: "If Your Majesty really trusts Li Yuan, then why do you have to hoard heavy troops in this Jiujiang City and train the navy?" ”

Lin Shihong laughed when he heard this: "Okay, that's a good point." Your envoy is really able to speak well, and I don't hide it, I am here to protect myself, and I also intend to collect Yuzhang County. Xiao Milling was defeated and couldn't defend himself, I went west to protect myself in a critical place, otherwise if Li Tang was allowed to get Yuzhang County, I Lin Shihong would not have a day to sleep in peace. ”

Ouyang asked: "Your Majesty, I don't know, Xiao Mo is a relative of my lord, the queen's mother's family, and attacking Xiao Mo is attacking my Zhao Kingdom." If His Majesty broke Xiao Miao, although he got the land of Yuzhang County, but this side offended Li Tang, which side offended Zhao Guo, wouldn't it be unwise. ”

Lin Shihong was taken aback and said, "There is such a thing." ”

Ouyang asked: "At present, the Tang army is floating down the river, and the Liang State has retreated to Yuzhang County, if His Majesty can form a good alliance with the Liang State at this time, it can form an alliance that depends on each other. Besides, once something happens to the Liang State, my Zhao State will not sit idly by, but His Majesty has Liang and the support of the Zhao two countries, so why should I be afraid of the Tang Army? ”

Lin Shihong shook his head and said, "I'm afraid Zhao Guo can't solve the fire far away." When will Emperor Zhao break Du Fuwei and get Jianghuai, it is not too late to say this to me. ”

Ouyang asked: "Doesn't Emperor Chu know how His Majesty broke Goguryeo?" ”

Lin Shihong said: "Why don't you know, didn't you lead the boat division to cross the sea and break Goguryeo?" ”

Ouyang asked: "Yes, since His Majesty sent a boat division to cross the sea to break Goguryeo, why can't he send a boat division to cross the sea from Shandong to the mouth of the Yangtze River, trace the river straight up, and reinforce Jiujiang?" ”

Lin Shihong's face changed and said: "This is impossible, not to mention crossing the sea, the road is inevitably too far." ”

Ouyang asked: "What's so difficult about this, thousands of years ago, Wu Wangfu sent a sailor to cut down like this, and now we are not as good as our predecessors?" What's more, His Majesty has even done such a difficult thing as breaking Goguryeo, so how can he not do his best to rescue Liang Guo. If you don't believe it, forget it. ”

Lin Shihong hesitated for a while and said: "Okay, I'll sell the face of the Son of Heaven of your country, and I won't be embarrassed for the time being." ”

Ouyang Xun heard this and arched his hand: "That's great." ”

Lin Shihong said happily: "Actually, I have long had the intention of alliing with Zhao State, but I have always been afraid that Emperor Zhao will look down on Lonely, and now that your envoy can come in person, I am very happy." I hope that your envoy can convey my goodwill to Emperor Zhao this time, and the two families will be an alliance and forever friendly, I don't know what Emperor Zhao's intentions are? ”

Ouyang Xun listened and said happily: "It's really good that His Majesty the Emperor of Chu has such an idea. My lord is also very interested in getting acquainted, Your Majesty, this is a hero in the world. ”

Ouyang Xun actually understands that now that Li Tang has broken Xiao Miao, the next step is to use the advantage of Jingxiang's upstream to the downstream to march eastward, so Lin Shihong is in a hurry at this time, and he urgently needs to ally with Zhao State to jointly resist Li Tang.
