This year, there has been a lot of rain in Linzhou, and it has been raining for three consecutive days, and the inside and outside of the city have become muddy and chaotic.

The low-ranking officials who came to the court had a lot of mud on their official robes, and their residences were simple, and there was no extra official robe to replace, so they could not be washed and dried, so they could only make do with them.

When the emperor saw this scene today, he did not shed tears and felt sorry for the suffering of the Aiqing, but laughed rarely.

Of course, it wasn't that Xiao Aiqing was so embarrassed, the emperor pointed to Yutu: "Chengzhou, the thieves who ordered the inquiry at the beginning robbed here, blocked the guards in Hedong, Shanxi, and Shannan, and made us Lingzhou cornered." ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty."

"Chengzhou is recovered, and our Linzhou and the southeast and north sides will be unobstructed."

"Straight to the capital!"

The officials congratulated in unison, rejoicing and sincere, and the unwashed sludge on the clothes was not considered a torment, and they would soon be able to jump out of this muddy place and return to the world in the capital.

Although the specific situation is not clear, and the meritorious generals have not yet returned, it does not prevent the emperor and the courtiers from eagerly discussing the rewards.

It wasn't until three days later that Xiang Yun returned.

"Governor Xiang." The emperor personally stepped down from the dragon chair to greet the generals who walked into the hall, "I didn't expect you to go after the assassins and take down a city." ”

Xiang Yun kept his duty as a courtier, did not accept the emperor's greeting, stopped and saluted on the spot: "The assassin is from the rebels, chasing an assassin is not the solution, only knowing that the rebels are, the minister did not have the king's order to attack the city, and acted rashly, please forgive your majesty." ”

The emperor helped him up and said, "This is a campaign, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it must be kept secret, how can you ask for your life in everything?" Don't be too modest. "I didn't understand it originally, but the traitors besieged me, and I had to lead troops to fight, and I have personal experience of this." ”

Yes, everyone knows that the traitors besieged Linzhou, and the prince of Lu personally led the army and people to resist the enemy, defended the city, held on until the reinforcements arrived, and personally killed a rebel general.

Your Majesty is not a person who grew up in the deep palace and did not know about war.

Xiang Yun saluted again: "Your Majesty Shengming." ”

Cui Zheng said: "Your Majesty, please take a seat and listen to the generals tell you what happened." ”

The generals reminded the emperor that Xiang Yun was followed by Zhang An and Wang Lin, although the two of them did not follow Xiang Yun to hunt down the assassins, but the army of Linzhou was also controlled and dispatched by them..... It is impossible for Xiang Yun to go to war alone.

The emperor hurriedly said: "The three generals will talk to me in detail, Chengzhou is so far away, and there are a lot of rebels entrenched, I heard that I haven't mobilized too many soldiers and horses?" ”

Although the emperor did not know that Xiang Yun was going to attack Chengzhou, the large number of soldiers and horses in Linzhou was still in the hands of the emperor.

If you want to capture Chengzhou, how can you also send more than half of Linzhou's soldiers and horses, and the time of the journey will take ten days, which is too risky, so Linzhou has never thought of attacking Chengzhou, and the time has not come.

Xiang Yun only led an army to hunt down the assassins, and Zhang An and Wang Lin also took their own soldiers and horses to patrol the surroundings, because they were on guard against the rebel assassins, and mobilized an extra batch of soldiers and horses, but it was far less than half of all the soldiers and horses in Linzhou.

Zhang An Wang Lin was ignored by the emperor and didn't care about it before, Yun Qingfeng smiled lightly and saw that Xiang Yun was valued, and only when he heard the emperor ask the three generals did he rush to speak.

"Your Majesty, what we brought out this time are the soldiers and horses from Jiannan Dao and Shannan Dao, and Xiang Dudu is surrounded by Longyou soldiers and horses, all of whom are ......warriors with one enemy and one hundred," they said with a calm and light attitude, and this battle was nothing.

But this time, before they finished speaking, Xiang Yun, who had always been gentle and polite, interrupted.

"Your Majesty, it is not my credit to be able to capture Chengzhou this time."

As soon as these words came out, the hall was surprised, and Cui Zheng also looked at Xiang Yun, looking at Xiang Yun more seriously.

The Emperor has already asked: "Who are you not?" After asking, he felt that he was asking too quickly, so he hurriedly added, "Don't be humble to Xiang Dudu." ”

Xiang Yundao: "The minister is not humble, this battle is the minister's planning and layout, but the success is because of the help of the governor of the southeast province." ”

Qi Shan? Southeast Road? Zhang An Wang Lin didn't care about how Qi Shan came out, and his ears were buzzing that this Chengzhou battle exploits had nothing to do with Jiannan Dao, and it had nothing to do with them......

......

......

"Xiang Yun said that he had been planning in Chengzhou, but he didn't dare to move easily, because Linzhou alone couldn't defeat him, and when he was chasing the assassin, because he often recalled the assassin's every move, he suddenly thought of a way."

Yuan Ji looked at the letter written by Li Mingyu's informant in Linzhou and read it to Li Minglou.

"The assassin assassinated him, it was the two sides that caught him off guard, and he can also attack Chengzhou like this."

"But Chengzhou is very wary of the surroundings, where can the soldiers and horses be used to catch it off guard?"

"He thought of Southeast Road."

Xiang Yun wrote a secret letter to Qi Shan, and Qi Shan sent a group of elite soldiers to sneak into Chengzhou quickly.

Xiang Yun launched an attack, Chengzhou soldiers and horses attacked, Xiang Yun retreated step by step to lure, Chengzhou was bent on deterring Linzhou soldiers and horses, constantly increasing troops to pursue, the hidden southeast soldiers took the opportunity to raid and break the city from the rear, killed the general of Chengzhou defending the city, the rebels were scattered, Xiang Yun led the soldiers and horses to kill back, double-sided attack, and the city was recovered.

Li Minglou heard this and asked: "Didn't we notice the movement of the soldiers and horses of the Southeast Dao?" ”

The soldiers and horses of the southeast road to Chengzhou have to pass through the Jiangnan Road and Shannan Road.

Yuan Ji shook his head: "They should have walked from Qianzhong, directly entered Longyou, and then detoured to Chengzhou." ”

Some of the Qianzhong were given to Qi Mountain by Xiang Yun, and Jiannandao couldn't intervene, and Shannandao was too big, and it was a soldier and horse to hide their whereabouts, even if Shannandao was basically under the control of Jiannandao, he couldn't detect it in time.

"No matter how divine a soldier is, it is impossible to be so fast and so sharp." Li Minglou said, "Xiang Yuncai will not be inspired by the assassin, he and Qi Shan have already planned. ”

Since when? From the time when Qi Shan's daughter had no wife or concubine to the Xiang family in Taiyuan Mansion.

Yuan Ji was silent, looked at the letter and continued: "Your Majesty praises it, saying that in addition to Jiannan Dao, the soldiers and horses of the Southeast Dao can also be mobilized." ”

Xiang Yun bowed his head, not because he could mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Southeast Road, but because all the guards in the world were mobilized by His Majesty, and the emperor laughed in the hall when he heard this, and the sound was rumbling.

It was the first time His Majesty had smiled so happily.

His Majesty withdrew Xiang Yun's order to preach martial arts, he is in Linzhou, and he can mobilize the world's guards, so why bother to go to Xuanwudao in person.

After Xuanwu Dao was collected by Xiang Nan, it was enough to attack the capital together under the order.

When the time comes, Huainan Dao, Xiangzhou's Wu Ya'er, Jiangnan Dao, Shannan Dao, and Henan Dao will order the servants like clouds, and the traitor Ankang Mountain will not escape.

In this life, Xiang Yun's name is going to overshadow Wu Ya'er, Li Minglou leaned on a few to look outside the courtyard, all because of her.

If it weren't for her, Xiang Yun and Qi Shan would not cooperate, and as a result, she failed to stop Xiang Yun's rise, but instead wanted to destroy Wu Ya'er's first marquis.

Li Minglou pursed his lips, Xiang Yun is really capable, and he doesn't just rely on God's favor.

"I didn't expect him to have such a good relationship with Qi Shan." Yuan Ji sighed, "Qi Shan is willing to give Xiang Yun such a great credit, His Majesty said that he would invite Qi Shan to Beijing, Xiang Yun said that the governor of Qi Du waited for His Majesty to enter Beijing to congratulate, and now he is only willing to defend the southeast for His Majesty, I thought that Qi Shan did this to take the opportunity to enter Linzhou to replace Xiang Yun." ”

Li Minglou said: "Qi Shan is not so kind, and Xiang Yun is not so easy to get along with, it depends on which of them is calculating." ”

At least Xiang Yun didn't come to calculate Jiannan Dao.

"Xiang Dudu is aggressive, let's do our thing." Li Minglou said, "Guard our territory, don't just be Xiang Yun's servant in the future." ”

Attacking the capital and winning great achievements, only Xiang Yun is their servant.

Yuan Ji understood: "I'll write a letter to Jiannan Dao." "Pause," called Jiang Liang to write to Miss Han Xu Minghua. ”

Li Minglou nodded, Jiang Liang wrote a letter for her, how to write what to write, to what extent, she still had to tell her to grasp it.

Jiang Liang hadn't called yet, Fang Er came in in a hurry: "Miss, Ankang Mountain has ascended the throne." ”

Although it has been a long time since Ankang Mountain ascended the throne, it is still shocking to really ascend the throne.

Li Minglou sighed again after being surprised, Ankang Mountain still ascended the throne, and it was still the summer of the sixth year of Chengyuan, exactly the same as the previous life.

No, it's always different, there must be something different.

Li Minglou sat up straight: "Have you heard the details of the capital?" ”

For example, she still has people in the capital, earlier than Ankang Mountain entered Beijing.
