So Chen Kuan abandoned Confucianism and Taoism, and also learned the art of praying for this talisman, in the name of curing diseases and saving people, and gradually established an organized force in the Huashan area, and has become a civil leader-like figure. He has the reputation of a Taoist immortal, and he has the strength of a large group of followers, which is also the real reason why the Later Tang Mingzong did not dare to attack him.

Chen Jian later realized that no matter how many believers he gathered, he would never be able to achieve great things without military force, so he began to look for capable people to serve as spokespersons or rely on, hoping to cooperate with Guò to realize his political ideas. Chen Tuan could have chosen Chai Rong, but after seeing Chai Rong in private, Chen Tuan could only choose Zhao Kuangyin, and no one would choose a short-lived person as his partner.

Chai Rong was also looking at Chen Jun calmly, he knew that nine times out of ten the rumors came from this person's mouth, but this person's reputation and strength really made it impossible for him to get rid of him. And now that this person can be called, he must have taken precautions, so naturally he can't be killed at will. But if Chen Tuan continues to act recklessly, I am afraid that it will cause a big disaster.

Chai Rong thought about it again and again, and suddenly spoke: "I have heard that the Taoist cultivates the method of sleeping deeply, and you can not eat or drink, and it is called Huashan High Sleep. I don't believe it, I want to test the sleeping skills of the Taoist. I don't know if it's possible? ”

Chen Tuan knew in his heart that this was a test, this was another way to kill himself, but he was the emperor, and if he wanted to kill or chop, he would die faster.

Chen Jun asked, "I don't know how the emperor wants to take the test?" ”

Chai Rong said: "The Taoist chief is lying in this room, and I want to go to Xiazhou." It's only a month to estimate back and forth, and then I come back to visit the Taoist, how about it? ”

Chen Tuan smiled and said, "The emperor can go." ”

Chai Rong ordered the guards to nail the doors and windows with wooden boards. Then seal it with a seal, and let the eight guards stay guarded, and no one is allowed to approach. Then march towards Xiazhou.

But what Chai Rong didn't know was that when Chen Tuan was called to come, he had already ordered his disciples to send news to Zhao Kuangyin, who was attacking Yanzhou.

Zhao Kuangyin, who received the news, was frightened, but he didn't dare to discuss with others.

At this time, the south gate of Yanzhou City was broken through to the training department, and the remnants of the Liao army fled in the direction of Lingzhou. Yanzhou is bordered by the Great Wall to the north. At this time, Xiang Xun sent a message and asked Zhao Kuangyin to go north out of the Great Wall. Then turn west to the north of Lingzhou, and Xiang Xun himself led his troops to pursue the enemy who fled to Lingzhou, so that he could attack Lingzhou in the north and south. The First World War wiped out all the enemies in the Zhou Kingdom.

Zhao Kuangyin's six gods led the army to the north with Chen Kuan's disciples without a master. Along the way, Zhao Kuangyin was thinking about how to deal with Chai Rong's thunderous rage. Zhao Kuangyin wants to be the emperor, no one doesn't want to be the emperor, but he doesn't want to clash head-on with Chai Rongqi, and he doesn't even want to grab Chai Rong's throne.

This is not Zhao Kuangyin's benevolence, at present, whether in terms of strength or fame, Zhao Kuangyin cannot be compared with Chai Rong.

So. Zhao Kuangyin was very worried that Chai Rong would beat him to death because of this. Never be born.

Five days later, Zhao Kuangyin led the army to the predetermined position, just Xiang Xun broke through Lingzhou, 10,000 blockade troops and more than 20,000 Liao troops escaped from the north gate of Lingzhou, and wanted to flee north to the territory of blockade, but were stopped by Zhao Kuangyin.

The commander of the Liao army, Ye Linma, saw that the way out was gone, and he was afraid that the annihilation of the whole army was inevitable, so he could only use the dead horse as a live horse doctor, and sent a peace envoy to Zhao Kuangyin's department, hoping to pass the test in confusion.

Zhao Kuangyin was annoyed in his heart, and when he heard the report from his own soldiers that the Liao army envoy was coming, he waved his hand impatiently and said: "Let him go back, tell him to wipe him, wash his neck and wait for someone to cut off his head." ”

The guard was about to go out, when suddenly there was a shout of "Slow".

Not only were the soldiers at a loss, but even Zhao Kuangyin was confused.

Because this "and slow" was actually shouted by Chen Tuan's disciple.

Seeing Zhao Kuangyin looking at him in confusion, Disciple Chen stepped forward and said, "General, please step back left and right, Xiaodao has something to say." ”

Zhao Kuangyin waved his hand and motioned for his soldiers to retreat first.

"General, this is a desperate way to survive."

"What do you mean by that?"

"The general is now suspicious of the emperor, and the family teacher is also trapped in Cizhou, if he does not strain, I am afraid it will be a dead end to wait. Now there is a great opportunity, as long as the general is willing, he can temporarily solve the urgent need. ”

Zhao Kuangyin was originally a soft-eared person, and said: "The Taoist is quick to speak." ”

"Does the general know why the emperor didn't summon you but only summoned the family teacher? That's because now the general is fighting with military power in his hands, and if the general destroys the Liao army in a battle, the war here is over, and it is inevitable to return the military power. In this way, not only the general will be in danger, but even the family teacher will be deeply affected. ”

Zhao Kuangyin nodded thoughtfully.

"The birds are all hidden, and the rabbits are dead and the dogs are cooked. The general won't be ignorant of this, right? ”

"I know. According to the long word, how should I deal with it? Do you want to surrender Liao? Zhao Kuangyin suddenly said angrily, "If this is the case, so-and-so will die at the hands of the emperor, and he will never be able to do it." ”

Seeing that Zhao Kuangyin was angry, Chen Kuan's disciple hurriedly explained: "The general does not need to surrender to the Liao State. In the opinion of the small road, as long as the war situation here is not settled, the general can naturally continue to hold the power of the army, first breathe a sigh of relief, delay time, and wait for changes. ”

Zhao Kuangyin let out a sigh of relief and said, "As long as it is not a rebellion or surrender to the Liao State, other things are easy to say." ”

Disciple Chen said, "General rest assured. Xiaodao was also a subject of the Zhou State, how could he persuade the general to surrender to the Liao State? The meaning of the trail is that the general will let go of these tens of thousands of enemy troops, let them flee north, and then go deep into the north in the name of pursuit, so that the general will not have to worry about handing over the military power for at least a few months, as long as the general is fine, the family teacher will naturally be fine. ”

Zhao Kuangyin asked: "Then how to answer Xiang Xun's question?" ”

"The general only needs to say that because it is difficult to travel in the north, when he arrives at the predetermined place, the enemy army has already fled north, and the general can only follow the north."

Zhao Kuangyin was still hesitating.

Disciple Chen Qi urged: "General, the situation is urgent, and you must not miss the opportunity. ”

Zhao Kuangyin gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and said: "That's it, that's it, according to what you said, let go of this group of dogs first, and then chase and kill them after they flee north." ”

So, Zhao Kuangyin secretly met with the envoy of the Liao army and discussed with him the way for the Liao and Bu armies to retreat north.

After that, Zhao Kuangyin opened a way for the Liao army to escape north in the name of adjusting the deployment, and Yelin Mo and his soldiers and the obstruction army were lucky to escape.

Xiang Xun, who had worked hard to defeat Lingzhou City, led his army to pursue along the Yellow River River north, and when he met Zhao Kuangyin at Shizhu Mountain, he learned that Zhao Kuangyin had not intercepted the enemy army in time, and the Liao army of Yelin Mozhi and the remnants of the Obstruction Army had fled north. Annoyed, Xiang Xun had no choice but to lead the army to retreat, but Zhao Kuangyin disagreed, and he continued to pursue north. (To be continued......)
