Chapter 62: The Battle of the Treasures
The good news that He Jingzhen's troops successfully attacked Yangliuqiao and successfully controlled Xiangxi Road soon spread to Ma Xicao.
Ma Xixu was ecstatic, and on the one hand ordered to reward He Jingzhen and the generals of the tribal army, and on the other hand, he convened an emergency military meeting with the generals in the army.
By the time Lin Feng rushed from his own ship to Ma Xixu's command ship, the generals of the Langzhou Army had basically gathered, and they were all extremely excited, and the huge cabin was noisy.
Seeing Lin Feng, Ma Xixuan immediately walked over and said with a smile on his face: "Special Envoy Lin is really the number one lucky general of my Chu State!" The old general He Jingzhen stole your raid strategy, and successfully captured Yangliu Bridge and took Xiangxi Road, and the fourth bastard has now become a turtle in the urn! ”
Lin Feng shook his head with a smile, and tried his best to excuse this honor that did not belong to him: "Ma Xiangguo praised it!" This is General He's move to judge the situation and Zhizhu in his hands, and he has nothing to do with Lin! ”
Liu Yan, the assassin of Chenzhou next to him, walked over, and said with a smile: "Special Envoy Lin, don't shirk, my greatest blessing of Da Chu, you can't escape no matter what!" As soon as Special Envoy Lin made a move, the changes in the battlefield situation were beneficial to my Langzhou! ”
Lin Feng shook his head with a wry smile and said: "The victory on the battlefield is all due to the heroic men of Datang and Dachu, Lin really doesn't dare to steal for himself!" ”
At this time, Wang Kui, the commander of the infantry army, came over, and informed that all the personnel had arrived, and asked the "King of Chu" to preside over the military meeting.
Hearing the words "King of Chu", Lin Feng couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, this Ma Xicao has only been a general of Shuntian for a few days, has he been promoted again?
Ma Xixu replied in a deep voice, raised his head with his chest straight, and walked towards the main seat. When his demeanor was complacent, he felt like he was really the supreme ruler of the Chu State.
As he walked past a brocade stool, the stool suddenly shook and fell on its own, stumbling over his right foot. Ma Xixu's huge body shook and fell forward, and Wang Kui behind him quietly stepped forward and held him steady.
"Long live the King of Chu!" A slightly sharp voice shouted, and the person who shouted was the charming woman Xie Yanhao, and all the generals couldn't help frowning, but they couldn't help shouting.
Lin Feng felt that he couldn't be amused in his heart, but his face was calm as usual, and as the big guy opened his mouth for a moment, he found his place and sat down. Because he represents the Southern Tang Dynasty, Lin Feng's position has always been arranged by Ma Xixu to be the first on the left to show respect for the envoy of the Tang Dynasty.
"Special Envoy Lin, all the secretaries, now that Tanzhou City is just around the corner, may I ask you what kind of siege plan you have?" Ma Xicao sat down, looked around, and asked in a loud voice.
No one answered. Although Ma Xicao did not say it to everyone, the senior generals present have already learned some inside information in advance, Tanzhou City has important people to respond, and it is only a matter of time before Tanzhou City is breached, and what is circling in everyone's minds is how to share the fruits of victory after the city is broken.
After a while, Xie Yanhao stood up, looked at the civil and military forces in the seat triumphantly, and shouted loudly: "King Chu, the slave family suggests that you first shoot a letter of surrender and enter the city, and ask Na Ma Xiguang to wear the clothes of a prostitute to go out of the city and surrender, so as to relieve the hatred in the heart of the King of Chu!" ”
Hearing this bad idea, many generals at the scene lowered their heads and cursed. Killing people is not a nod to the ground, it is just a wall of brothers, so why humiliate people so much?
Ma Xicao opened his mouth and laughed wildly, pointed at Xie Yanhao and said, "It's still Yanhao who knows my mind!" You write the letters! ”
Lin Feng looked at the farce at the banquet and made up his mind to be a bystander.
After a while, Liu Yan, the assassin of Chenzhou, stood up and arched his hand and said: "King Chu, Tanzhou City can be taken down, are you carefully arranging the siege?" ”
Panlong Shi Shiran, who asked to come to the meeting on behalf of He Jingzhen, stood up, glared at Liu Yan, and said loudly: "What else is there to arrange?" As long as there is no mistake in the response that the King of Chu said, our warriors of all races can definitely kill any resistance of Tanzhou soldiers! ”
It is no wonder that Panlong is arrogant, all the infantry of the Langzhou Army was only 16,000 at first, and now after several battles, the remaining total number is about 11,000 people, but because the tribal army happened to miss the battle of the meat stirring machine at the east gate of Yiyang, the loss is not big, only the Tujia soldiers are now in their early 5,000s, and the combat effectiveness is far more than the ordinary Langzhou soldiers, Panlong naturally became more courageous when he spoke.
Pan Long trained Liu Yan, turned to Ma Xixu, and said loudly: "King Chu, before the warriors of my various clans set out on the expedition, you made a promise to hide in Tanzhou, and now it's time to realize it, right?" ”
Ma Xicao's face was stunned, and he immediately smiled and said: "This king's words naturally count!" ”
"That pan is received on behalf of the Tujia, Miao, Dong, and She tribes, and all the property in this Tanzhou city belongs to my tribes!" Panlong said with a grin.
"General Pan, don't talk nonsense!" Zhou Xingfeng couldn't hear it, so he got up and said angrily, "What the King of Chu promised at the beginning was the treasure of Tanzhou Mansion, but it only refers to the hidden property of the puppet king Ma Xiguang's mansion, and it is definitely not all the property of Tanzhou City!" ”
Liu Yan, Wang Kui and other Han officials and generals also stood up one after another, loudly reprimanding Panlong for being greedy and changing concepts.
"Smack"! With a loud bang, Pan Long slapped off a few cases in front of him, his face turned red, and he jumped to his feet and scolded: "Wu Na Han barbarian, talking doesn't count!" This Tanzhou Mansion and Changsha Mansion, no matter what the name is, everyone will not think that it just refers to a small part of the Chu Wangfu in the city, right? ”
Wang Kui took a few steps forward and explained in a deep voice: "The treasurer, the gold coins are also hidden, and the treasury has been used since ancient times to refer to the treasury of the treasury for collecting money, referring to the treasury. Tanzhou Treasury naturally refers to the money in Ma Xi's Guangtiance Mansion! ”
Panlong screamed, drew a knife in his hand, and split the several cases that fell to the ground into several pieces, and then raised his hand to point at Wang Kui with a halberd, and said angrily: "I don't know such difficult Chinese characters, don't deceive me!" I only know that what the King of Chu promised me is the money of Tanzhou City! ”
Suddenly, everyone's eyes were focused on Ma Xixu. The letter sent to Panlong and others was written by Ma Xixu himself, and he naturally knew best how he wrote it.
Ma Xicao's face flushed, his lips moved, and he didn't answer. Of course, he knew that what was written in the original letter was Zangzang, but at this moment, if he told the truth, he was afraid that the dragon would immediately turn his face.
Seeing that Ma Xicao was silent, Panlong became angry, and scolded hatefully in his mouth: "Han Man is really not credible!" Our armies will withdraw tonight! However, since I have promised my brothers money money, I cannot let them return empty-handed, and I must give an account to my brothers. King Chu, I can only stand you! With that, he got up and walked out.
Threats, that's naked threats! If you don't agree now, believe it or not, I'll kill you back from your territory and grab the money I deserve!
When Wang Kui heard this, he was immediately annoyed, this real person who is known for his self-cultivation on weekdays was also forced to fire, and roared loudly: "Panlong, don't be embarrassed!" Believe it or not, we joined forces with Tanzhou City to kill all the tribal soldiers?! ”
Pan Long glanced at Wang Kui, his tone softened a little, and said to Wang Kui with a sneer: "General Wang, you have a kind!" This is what you said, then let's go to war now, you and I will not die! ”
When Ma Xicao heard this, he was completely panicked. If he falls short at this time, not only will he have a chance to turn over, but even his life will be difficult to protect!
Ma Xicao crawled over with a rolling belt, his fat body stopped in front of Pan Long, and shouted urgently: "General Pan, everything is negotiable!" Everything is negotiable! Isn't it just something outside of the body? As for General Yipan, Tanzhou City is an additional gift from the king to the warriors of all races! ”
"King Chu can't!" Wang Kui, Zhou Xingfeng, Liu Yan and others shouted loudly at the same time.
"Shut it all up!" Ma Xicao turned around, immediately became violent, pointed at a group of generals, and said angrily, "Aren't you waiting for this king to become a dishonest person who is ridiculed in the world?" ”
At this point, the generals were speechless and sat down with hatred. Wang Kui slammed his fist on the several cases in front of him, Zhou Xingfeng pulled out a knife and slashed it on the back of his chair, only Liu Yan suppressed the anger in his heart, and his hands were clenched tightly, and his nails were deeply pinched into the flesh.
At this time, Lin Feng stood up and spoke with his fists clenched.
