Chu State, Yingdu.

When the news of Qingshui County came, Cai Tong's face became very bad.

Unlike the information in private, when the military report from the front came, Cai Tong was discussing the defense of the front line with the generals of the Chu State.

It seems that he was stimulated by the western realm, and after the failure of Huan Wu's attack on Shu, he wanted to find a field from other places. Therefore, the Liang army was aggressive on the border of the state of Chu. A few days ago, there was also news that the soldiers of the Liang army crossed the border line and smashed the sentry post of Chu State.

Although Cai Tong knew that the dead soldiers sent to assassinate Fan Qing's old department had missed, he didn't expect them to react so quickly. In just a few days, 20,000 or 30,000 people went south.

"My lord, whatever the cause of this matter, we must do something."

Most of the courtiers of the Chu State were the generals of Jing and Jiao Prefectures in the past, among them, headed by the general Wen Qing, who was the most important by Cai Tong.

This group of people in Qingshui County are all Fan Qing's old subordinates, and they have always been at odds with Cai Tong. Cai Tong was not reused, but he also gave the field pension to let them live in peace. In the past ten years, these people have also been stable.

Wen Qing didn't know what was going on in Qingshui County, which made these people suddenly attack, but if they didn't stop it, the Chu State would make a big wave.

Especially at this moment, when the Liang army is in the north and is eyeing the tiger.

Cai Tong nodded in agreement. Of course, it was impossible for Cai Tong to tell the ministers of the Chu State that it was he who sent the dead soldiers to assassinate those generals of Fan Qing's old department that made them difficult.

Otherwise, his prestige among his ministers would have been greatly weakened.

"There are not enough soldiers in Shimizu County. Cai Yun, if you take 10,000 elites from the capital, you must persuade these people to stop. Remember, among these two or thirty thousand people, there are still old and weak women and children, and you must not hurt them. ”

Cai Yun is the son of Cai Tong. Only if he goes, Cai Tong will be relieved. Because no matter what Cai Yun knew from Fan Qing's old department, it was impossible to convey it to the ministers of the Chu State.

In the end, what the ministers of Chu knew would only be what Cai Tong wanted them to know.

And these 10,000 elites went not to dissuade them, but to kill people and kill people.

Just as Cai Yun stepped forward to receive the talisman, a servant walked in outside the door. Under the gaze of a group of generals, he came to Cai Tong's side and said something in his ear.

Cai Tong's face changed greatly, his palms clenched, and he scolded.

"Yang Xian'er, damn it!"

The disciples of the Sea King Sect immediately spread the deal between Ning Jingyuan and Yang Xian here, which also made Cai Tong's plan to kill people and destroy his mouth on fire.

If it was in Qingshui County, with the Sea King Sect blocking the water system, these 10,000 elites would be able to slaughter those people. However, after Yang Xian asked for a hundred big ships from Ning Jingyuan, these two or thirty thousand people could go down the river and reach Wuning County in a few days.

The border between Wuning County and Shu is adjacent, and if it is intercepted there, it will be much more difficult.

In that year, Yang Zhong entered Shu, controlled Yizhou, and won the gateway from Cai Tong to Jing, the former jurisdiction of Wuning County, Pingling.

After taking control of Pingling, the Shu army entered Jing, advancing by land and water, without any hindrance. And he Cai Tong wants to enter Shu, not only against the current, but also with many levels. Fortunately, Yang Zhong died early, and Huan Wu rose again, and the common enemy of Shu and Chu was the Liang army, so there was no big fight.

Over the years, Cai Tong has always wanted to recapture this strategic place, but Yang Chun seems to have been guarding him for a long time, and the people stationed in Pingling are the descendants of Yang Ci's old troops in the past, who are brave and good at fighting.

Yang Zhong hung a sharp sword on his head Cai Tong, but Cai Tong could only endure it, very aggrieved, but there was no way.

"Master Hou, what happened?"

"The reason why Fan Qing's old department has changed is that it was provoked by Yang Xian's children and wanted to move to Yizhou. A few days ago, Yang Xian borrowed a hundred big ships from Ning Jingyuan and carried those 20,000 or 30,000 people. Now, they are afraid that they have arrived in the territory of Wuning County. ”

"Master Hou, Yang Xian'er is so rampant, if our army is unmoved, it will be ridiculed by the princes of the world, and the military power will be lost!"

Different from the cautious attitude just now, Wen Qing was very excited when he heard the news now.

After all, these two things are of a completely different nature. If it was just Fan Qing's old ministry who was dissatisfied with the pension issue, it was only an internal issue, and it was still possible to discuss. But if they want to go to Yizhou, this problem is serious.

"Master Hou, these people eat inside and out, if we don't kill them all, the whole world will think that there is no one in our Chu army."

"Yes! The great enemy of Shu and Chu is the Huan thief, and now Yang Xian is coming to this hand, clearly not taking my Chu country in his eyes. If Hou Ye allowed these people to leave, what would Wu Guo think, and what would Liang Jun think? Everyone will think that our Chu army can be bullied. ”

"Master Hou, those people help the old and the young, even when they arrive in Wuning County, they can't reach Yizhou in ten days and half a month. We're definitely going to be able to plug it now. ”

........

For a time, the generals present asked for battle, and the voices of discussion were endless.

Cai Tong stretched out his hand and stopped them from talking. These generals wanted to hunt down Fan Qing's old troops, but Cai Tong hesitated.

This matter involves Yang Xian, and it is not simple. Cai Tong is not worried about whether he can catch up, but is worried about what to do after catching up? Slay them all down?

What's more, at this moment, Huan Wu is in the north, and he is sharpening his sword. If there is a conflict with Yang Xian, how to deal with the Liang army in the north?

Cai Tong's advisor Kuai Xing saw his worries and persuaded him: "Master Hou, it is not wise to clash with Yang Xian at this moment. ”

"Kuaixing, what do you mean? What is it not wise to conflict with Yang Xian, is it not possible for my Chu Jun to be afraid of him. ”

The generals on the side said with a big grin, and his tone was very impulsive, almost shouting and scolding.

"The generals misunderstood me."

Looking at the aggressive generals, Kuai Xing smiled and explained: "Yang Xian is Yang Xian, Fan Qing's old department is Fan Qing's old department, we don't need to link them together." At this moment, the great enemy of Chu is in Liang, and we don't need to clash with the Shu army. ”

Cai Tong's eyes lit up and said, "Mr. continues." ”

"Fan Qing's old ministry is the people of my Chu State, and the Hou Ye has the right to kill them. They have the Hou Ye first, that is, they will kill them all, and the world will not say that the Hou Ye is not. Hou Ye can raise an army in the city, go to Wuning County, and stop them. If Yang Xian is not there, whether these two or thirty thousand people are alive or dead, they are all in the mind of Hou Ye. If Yang Xian is here, then in front of him, Hou Ye disposes of these people, firstly, he can lose Yang Xian's face, and secondly, he can also greatly increase the military prestige of our Chu army. ”

"As Mr. said!"

Cai Tong stood up suddenly, his eyes shining. He still has another plan in his heart, if he can capture Yang Xian, then exchange him for Pingling, and Yang Chun can't be allowed to disagree.
