Since last year's Shangsi Festival, Wang Shichong has received a lot of people from the rebel army, especially Li Mi's generals, such as Shan Xiongxin, Pei Renji and other fierce generals, most of whom have been taken under his command, which can be described as a wealth of talents.

At this time, he heard that his army couldn't even resist Yu Wenzhihe, and Wang Shichong was immediately angry.

"Waste, not even a straw bale."

Duan Da lowered his head and said secretly: Yuwen Zhihe is a straw bag, but his brother Yuwen Shihe is not a straw bag, not to mention that Yuwen Zhihe has the elite soldiers and strong generals in Luoyang in the past.

"Order, I will personally take command and crusade against Yuwen Zhiji."

Wang Shichong then entrusted the affairs of the court to his brother Wang Shiyun and led his elite soldiers to the outskirts of the city.

Just after Wang Shichong left, Wei Jin secretly visited Yang Guang's old ministry and discussed plans with Duguji, Liu Changgong, Huo Shiju, Wang Long and others.

Wang Shichong disregarded the righteousness of the monarch and ministers, brazenly led troops into the palace, and killed Zhongliang, and his wolf ambition has been revealed. We are deeply favored by the emperor, if we don't take action to help Your Majesty eradicate the scourge, the Sui Dynasty will be in danger! ”

Dugu Ji had a murderous look on his face: "Yuwen Zhi and the menacing situation, Wang Shichong has no choice but to leave Luoyang City, it is better for us to take the opportunity to take his lair, slaughter his people, and keep him out of the city." ”

These words touched the hearts of the people, and everyone immediately agreed, and then discussed the details together.

......

At this time, Wang Shichong was engaged in a new round of confrontation with Yuwen Zhihe, and he did not know the changes in the city.

Outside Luoyang City, soldiers on both sides rushed fiercely.

Once upon a time, they belonged to the same camp, fought side by side, and were like brothers. Now he is the enemy, and he is red-eyed, and he refuses to let go of his bloodthirsty sword.

"Kill!"

The sound of the battle shook the earth, the air was filled with a thick smell of blood, and the ground was soaked in blood, and the color became darker and darker......

The two sides fought in the dark, and when they hit the back, everyone was numb.

"Report, Wei Jin and Duguji have launched a mutiny and have surrounded the Zheng Guogong Mansion, and Nei Shi Ling sent people to ask for help."

Hearing the guard's report, Wang Shichong's face changed greatly, he sat on his horse, looked at the battlefield in front of him, and then ordered his subordinates: "Go and find General Wang Wei." ”

Wang Wei is Wang Shichong's cousin, and this time he followed him to crusade against Yuwen Zhiji.

After a while, Wang Wei came to Wang Shichong with a blood-dripping knife: "What do you command?" ”

Wang Shichong's expression was solemn, and he solemnly ordered: "There is an accident in Luoyang City, Wei Jin and Duguji's gang of traitors took advantage of me to go out of the city and led troops to encircle and suppress the Zhengguo Mansion, brother They are in danger, you quickly lead the troops back to the city to rescue the Wang family." ”

Hearing this, Wang Bian's face changed: "Yes, I'll go now." ”

If the Wang clan is wiped out and they are locked up outside Luoyang City, they will be completely out.

After Wang Wei left, Wang Shicheng immediately ordered: "Mingjin collects the troops." ”

There was a fire in the rear, and he could not stay here for long.

Yu Wenzhi and Wang Shichong's people retreated, and immediately ordered to chase and kill.

Under a burst of killing, Wang Shichong lost thousands of people, but Wang Shichong didn't take it to heart.

After the temporary truce, Wang Shichong sent an envoy to Yuwen Zhiji's camp.

"Your Majesty, Wang Shichong sent an envoy to ask for a meeting."

Yuwen Zhihe raised his eyebrows: "It's only been a few days, and you sent a messenger?" Didn't you come to make peace? ”

He knew that no one could stop him from dominating the world.

Yuwen Zhiji looked a little attentive and ordered, "Let him come in." ”

The messenger sent by Wang Shichong was his uncle, Wang Qiong, who was also known to Yuwen Zhiji.

"I've seen His Majesty Xu Guo." Wang Qiong saluted neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Hearing the title of "Your Majesty", Yuwen Zhiji was very happy, "What did Wang Shichong send you to do?" ”

Wang Qiong was also very anxious about the situation in the city, but he didn't show it on his face, and said calmly: "The strength of the Xu State is comparable to that of the Sui Dynasty, and if you attack Luoyang, you will only lose both."

"If we lose both, we will give other forces an opportunity to take advantage of it, and at that time, the Xu State and the Sui Dynasty will cease to exist."

Seeing Yu Wenzhi's face change, Wang Qiong was satisfied, and continued to analyze the situation with him: "Although you have recruited a lot of troops, there are still forces such as Li Yuan, Liu Wuzhou, Dou Jiande, Wang Bo, and Xiao Mo around you.

"I heard that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty sent Li Shimin, the king of Qin, to attack you, and soon arrived in Wei County, and the Xia Dynasty army did not completely withdraw from your territory.

"Last year's Shangsi Festival, the firearms used by the Xia Dynasty and Tang Dynasty armies, do you remember?"

"If you insist on attacking Luoyang, when the time comes, you will be surrounded by enemies, and the country of Xu will be destroyed."

Yuwen Zhiji's face turned blue, just now, he received a message from his brother Yuwen Shiji, Li Shentong, the king of Huai'an in the Tang Dynasty, launched an attack on Wei County.

Sima Dejiao also knew the news, but he didn't show it, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, Li Tang's army is not only coming at us, but also Luoyang, and the Xia Dynasty is also eyeing Luoyang.

"It's not just our Xu Kingdom that is surrounded by enemies, it's also your Sui Dynasty."

Hearing this, Wang Qiong followed his words and said, "That's right, that's why we have to form an alliance to jointly defend against foreign enemies." ”

Ally?

It turned out that Wang Shichong sent an envoy not to ask him for peace, but to form an alliance with him.

"How do you form an alliance?" Yu Wenzhi finally couldn't hold back and asked.

Wang Qiong's eyes crossed a trace of imperceptible pride, and the fish took the bait.

"Ahem......" He cleared his throat and said slowly: "Xu Guo immediately retreated, we will help you drag Li Shimin, and in the future, Xu Guo and the Sui Dynasty will help each other and jointly resist the traitors."

"In the future, all traitors will be eliminated, and the Xu State and the Sui Dynasty will divide the world in two."

These words made Yu Wenzhi and his blood boil, although he did not dominate the world, but in the end, he could divide the world in two, and it was a hundred times stronger than his current situation.

"Good ......" Yu Wenzhi couldn't wait to agree, but was interrupted by Sima Deji.

"Your Majesty, the stakes are high, you should think twice."

Saying that, Sima Dejiao turned to Wang Qiong again: "Your Majesty still has to think about it, so you can go back first." ”

Wang Qiong was not in a hurry, and said to Yuwen Zhiji with a shallow smile: "Your Majesty Xu Guo has always been wise and decisive, Wang believes that you will soon make the right choice."

"It's getting late, and it's inconvenient for Wang to go back and forth, so I'm waiting for your reply outside."

After saying that, he turned around and came out of the big tent.

As soon as Wang Qiong's back disappeared at the door of the tent, Yu Wenzhi lowered his face and reprimanded Sima Dejiao: "Are you the emperor, or am I the emperor?" When will it start your turn to be my lord? ”

Seeing Yu Wenzhi and his face full of anger, Sima Dejiao hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, and the minister is also in a hurry, so he is out of proportion."

"But the minister is loyal to you and has no two hearts, and the reason why I do this is also for you and for the country."

Yuwen Zhihe's face softened slightly: "Get up,"

Sima Dejiao stood up and continued: "Your Majesty, as Wang Qiong said, we are surrounded by enemies on all sides, but in today's situation, who is not surrounded by enemies?

"Now that our army has the upper hand in attacking Luoyang, as long as we insist on attacking, Luoyang will definitely be able to take it, even if we lose other territories such as Wei County at that time, why not?"

Of course, remote places such as Wei County cannot be compared with the capital Luoyang.

"Then what if we fail to capture Luoyang and lose our existing territory?" Yu Wenzhi asked.

Sima Dejia: "......"
