Seemingly overnight, Beiyang became the quietest place in the world.

Heavy bells echoed through the palace, and twenty-seven were full of mourning. Those concubines and ministers who hadn't seen Gu Zhang's face for many months seemed to wake up from a nightmare, and only then did they know what had happened.

During the reign of the King of Beiyang, he built a large number of imperial tombs with jade steps and golden tiles, but unfortunately he did not expect that he would die in the hands of Zhao Hai, and the imperial road of the mausoleum had not yet been built. But Zhao Chai had already prepared the golden silk nan shrub with forty-nine layers of lacquer. When the next day went to court, everyone took off their crowns and wore vegetarian clothes. And all the people were not allowed to pray or make sacrifices for twenty-seven days, and they were not allowed to marry for a month, nor to slaughter for forty-nine days, nor to have fun for a hundred days.

Some people raised objections, but more of them were prevaricated by Zhao Yien.

At the moment, it seems that Gu Chongwu is the only one who can inherit the unification.

I didn't have to choose.

It was not negotiable.

There were no rumors, and no rumors.

And the body of Gu Zi'an, the former son of the world, will also return to the sun with the mission and the army.

The news quickly reached the ears of several people thousands of miles away, and according to the plan made, Wei Yong was already preparing to cross the river and raid the troops of Zhao Yien's generals.

Gu Zi'an is still quietly approaching the sun here.

Zhang Ji's face still did not change, and the Beiyang people and the Great Xia army who heard the news were all very strange, after all, although they had already felt the gloomy atmosphere, Zhang Ji did not personally admit the news that Gu Zi'an was dead. The fishy smell dissipated a lot, and the soldiers didn't want to understand why Gu Zi'an was dead, why not put it in a temporary coffin and bury it the next day. The soldiers were afraid that Zhang Ji was crazy, although he still did not change his face and rode a high-headed horse frankly, but he heard a lot of gossip.

"And let them be proud for a few days." Chunxia pouted in the tent and said a few words.

Gu Zi'an didn't squeak, just smiled and held the scroll in his hand.

He knew in his heart that if he reappeared at this time, Zhao Chai could completely order the entire army to attack. What he wanted was to be taken by surprise and taken by surprise. What he wants is for Zhao Hai to put them into the sun in a grand manner, so that there is less danger of attacking the city. Moreover, if Zhao Yien is really as he thinks, he needs to leave some blanks for Zhao Yien.

Just like the blank space of Chinese landscape painting, it is attractive to have reverie. Gu Zi'an was ready to announce Zhao Hai's evil deeds every other day, also so that the two of them could fight and kill each other. After all, if Beiyang fights in three ways, it will only benefit other countries. Moreover, if the two knew that they were still alive, they would hold each other together and resist together, and the situation would be even more dangerous at that time. He thought it over and finally chose this strategy.

Chun Xia looked at the free and uninhibited firmness in his eyes, his confidence and fearlessness in the future. Like the sun, moon and stars, it shines brightly.

The spring breeze traces back to the land that has been donated, this is a rare calm time for Gu Zi'an, there are no assassins who come to assassinate quickly, only bursts of smell accompanied by the fragrance of the earth.

It's just that at this time, Meng Yi would rather not feel good.

The people who were scattered did not come back for some reason, and she didn't know at all whether Zhao Yien had an army in her hands. I am not afraid that after the Fenghua County Lord sent troops, they occupied this place, and what they were afraid of was that when Xia Fenghua surrounded the two princes who were friendly with the Zhao family, he led people to surround the soldiers and horses of the Fenghua County Lord like a dumpling.

"Don't worry, people will always come back." Bai Xining sat aside and comforted.

"How can I not be in a hurry! Wait any longer, the daylily will be cold! According to the plan, we will set off on the third day announced by Zhao Hai, but now I don't even know whether there is anyone in Zhao Yien's hands and how many people there are! According to our previous speculation, we didn't miss it again. So it's certain that Zhao Yien has an undiscovered force in his hands! Meng Yining walked around the room with his hands behind his back.

Xia Fenghua raised his eyebrows: "With only 8,000 soldiers and horses, I can surround the two cities, and the rest can naturally stay in a hidden place to prevent future troubles, if they really rush out to besiege us, they can also implement a group of counter-encirclement." ”

"Eight thousand?" Hongxi also listened with relish on the side, "How can 8,000 people surround it?" You're only half as strong as those two princes. ”

"Reduce troops and increase the number of troops."

Xia Fenghua spit out a sentence confidently, with a bright smile, and his pale eyes were as calm as tea, "Do you know how my father fought back then?" ”

She said proudly: "In the past, when I was fighting with other countries, my father only had 5,000 elite soldiers, while the other side had 8,000 elite soldiers. It was also a long-distance run, and the soldiers and horses were tired. However, the other side still thought that they would be able to win the battle with the superiority of their forces. At that time, my father divided the people into two groups, and 2,000 people were stationed in the same place, but they did not reduce the stove, and from a distance it looked like smoke was billowing out, and there were still 5,000 people eating. And 3,000 men hid in the mountains, cutting off their grain and grass in a roundabout way, causing chaos, cutting off the retreat, and dividing the 8,000 elite soldiers into two. Before the 5,000 people in the back could react, the 3,000 people in front were all surrounded and annihilated. At this time, the other party's morale is low, and they are about to flee back. Deserters are the easiest to kill, and if they fight against the odds, they may still be able to win. So, my father annihilated 8,000 with 5,000 soldiers and horses. ”

This is also why, Xia Fenghua's army is highly disciplined.

Fugitive, die!

Everyone was surprised to hear this, and Xia Fenghua added softly: "The stove can be used to confuse the enemy, and this is also the best method. ”

Le Yi lay on the table, his fox-like narrow eyes narrowed, "My suggestion is to leave only five thousand people to besiege." First cut off the main road connecting the two cities, so that they could not bring troops to each other and cut off their connection. And the rest of the men and horses, except for guarding the frontier, are all ambushed near the sun. Moreover, I estimate that the two princes directly opened the city gate and surrendered, after all, most of the people who can be bought by the Zhao family with money are more concerned about their own lives. Isn't it? ”

Le Yi smiled, "dong" put a few teacups on the table, and then said: "After all, these two princes are only responsible for the safety of places more than 100 miles outside Yangshang, so they need Zhao Yien to buy them with a lot of money." Otherwise, as soon as he mutinies, it will be difficult for all parties to send troops to clean up! I expected that the soldiers and horses in his hand must be near the sun, or even within the sun! ”

Bai Xining also nodded, and said cheaply: "What my brother said is yes." ”

"Cut." Le Yi snorted coldly.

"In this way, wouldn't it be dangerous for Gu Zi'an to enter the yang? I don't know if the assassin has found out the news! Meng Yining was in a hurry at that time! Originally, she wanted to go to the sun to investigate, otherwise she wouldn't be able to sleep at night, and she didn't want to think about tea and food.

"No, I've got to go check it out!" She stood up suddenly, her eyebrows raised, her eyes condensed.

"I'll go with you." Le Yi sat up straight and said.

"I'll go, I'll go!" Hongxi raised her hand.

"Why don't I follow?" Bai Xining looked at her sister's determined appearance and asked.

Meng Yining glanced at it: "Have you gone back yet?" It's not to go to the market! I can't keep you safe! ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a hurried voice from a soldier in the distance: "Report-"
