"What does he mean......" Several strategists looked at Ning Ze suspiciously.

"You don't have to worry about it," Ning Ze smiled, "focus on what's in front of you." Sima Fa wants to recapture Lu Yuan, and I am afraid that at the same time, he will fight the idea of our army's military rations. ”

"Just rely on the tens of thousands of deserters he gathered?" Wu Jian felt meaningless.

"It's impossible to be someone else, but this Sima method is not simple. Ning Ze said, "It's better to be careful!" In this way, Gu Xian sent someone to secretly send Lu Yuan away, and went to Kamu County to ask Ding Mu to watch. Then make some arrangements, as long as Sima Fa dares to lead the troops to rob the camp, he will be directly attacked in the face! By the way, send the kite to Kamu County together, and send a message to Ding Mu and Ghost Face to prepare and attack Dangliang at any time. ”

Ning Zejun made an arrangement and secretly sent a force to escort Lu Yuan, and by the way, he took the dragon-shaped kite north. The main force remained in place, and ordered the scouts to continuously monitor the movements of Sima's army and do a good job of defense.

On the other side, Sima Fa calculated Ning Ze's actions based on the news from the scouts: "With Ning Ze's intelligence, he won't be unable to guess our intentions. Based on his past information, he is quite cautious. Although I guessed that our side might secretly rescue Lu Yuan, and at the same time, the morale of the opponent's army was stronger after successive victories, it was estimated that Lu Yuan would be temporarily transferred to avoid oversight. He wants to use Lu Yuan as a bargaining chip, so he naturally has to put it in a close place, and he will not send it to Jilan County, and it is very likely that he will move to the vicinity of Kamu County that he has just won, to avoid the eyes of our scouts. I expect that our army will go to rob the camp, and we will also make arrangements in advance! Wang Xiu!"

"The last general!" a general stood up and clasped his fists.

"Order you to take a detour, avoid the eyes and ears of Ning Zejun, and rush to ambush near the Bamu River. If there are Ning Ze's soldiers and horses passing by, General Zhengdong will be among them, and he must take down the enemy army!" Sima Fa asked solemnly, "Is there a problem?"

"The last general will never live up to the high expectations of the governor!"

"Li Tie, Zhang Kang, You Xian, Zhao Fu!"

"The last general!!" the four generals walked out of the queue.

"Do you dare to rob the camp with the Pontus Governor tonight?"

"Swear to follow the Metropolitan Governor to the death!!"

Both sides have their own arrangements and are ready to compete in the showdown.

At this moment, Qiangyang, Gunzhou.

The battlefield information of Liu Yuanxiang and Lu Cong's forces continued to pass through scouts and use flying pigeons to send them back.

Ma Jian paid close attention to the frontline battle reports and waited for the best time.

When he heard that Lu Cong's soldiers and horses had broken through the two counties of Longshou and Qingshan, Ning Ze defeated Lu Yuan and captured him alive, and at the same time sent troops north to conquer Kamu and Miha, pointing directly at Dangliang, Sima Fa had to go north to deal with it in person, and Lu Cong also mobilized his troops and horses to rush to Chizhou, and knew that the time had come.

Sure enough, the military advisor Feng Qiao came over to meet him and said to him: "Lord, Ning Ze captured Lu Yuan, and then entered Chizhou and smashed Lu Cong's foundation. Under Lu Cong's panic, he sent a large army to help, and the strength of Yunzhou was sharply reduced. Sima Fa and Ning Ze faced each other, the two sides fought for a long time, their troops were damaged, and the battle was difficult to solve, and now is a good opportunity!

Ma Jian immediately raised 100,000 troops, set out from Qiangyang, and quickly went north to attack Datong County in Yunzhou.

Datong Taishou Sun Yan led his troops to meet the battle, fell into Feng Qiao's strategy, and was killed by random arrows.

Ma Jian's army quickly captured Datong County, and continued to attack Jersey County northward without stopping.

Knowing that Ma Jian sent troops to the north and captured Datong County in a surprise attack, Lu Cong was furious and ordered his brother Lu Jian to lead 150,000 troops to the south to fight against Ma Jian.

Tang Niu got the information and personally led 80,000 troops out of Liucheng County and went straight to the imperial city of Miliang.

Lu Cong was attacked on three sides, and hurriedly asked the hundred officials.

The imperial historian Pu Anmin offered advice: "The prime minister can send an envoy to the barbarian land, and he must use heavy profits to invite the Naduo and Changyi clans to send troops to Bian Zhou, which can stop the Tang Niu soldiers and horses!"

Lu Cong immediately sent an envoy out of Dacheng and went straight to the barbarian land in the west, where he met the leaders of the two ethnic groups of Naduo and Changyi respectively.

The leaders of the two clans readily agreed, and each sent 30,000 troops to attack the two counties of Bianzhou, Guiyang, and Dongcheng respectively.

Tang Niu's soldiers were in Miliang and were about to attack. Suddenly, I got the news that Bian Zhou was under attack by the barbarians, and the situation was urgent.

The foundation must not be lost, and the troops should be withdrawn decisively.

Tang Niu's troops retreated, and Lu Lian's army rushed to Jersey County to fight against Ma Jian.

Feng Qiao offered advice to introduce Lu Lian's army into Jersey's Secret Valley and attack it with fire.

Lu Lian's army was defeated, losing tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and retreated ten miles.

Ma Jianjun pushed forward.

When they arrived at the Chaijiang River, Lu Jianjun lined up across the river and demolished all the bridges to prevent Ma Jianjun from taking a step forward.

Ma Jian asked Feng Qiao, and Feng Qiao offered advice and secretly led troops upstream to destroy the embankment and release the flood.

The flood rushed down and scattered Lu Lian's army.

Lu Jian finally gathered his soldiers and horses, and after counting, he found that more than 2,000 people were missing. I could only continue to retreat and camp at Taozhi Mountain.

Feng Qiao ordered the soldiers to set fire to the bottom of the mountain, and the fire spread, causing Lu Lian's army to be defeated again.

Lu led the defeated army and fled into Jersey County in a hurry.

The front was defeated repeatedly, and Lu Cong was furious and urgently ordered Li Xun to lead his troops to help.

When Li Xun arrived in Yueling County, Feng Qiao designed to break through Jersey, and Lu Jian led his troops to retreat and join forces with him.

Ma Jianjun won all the way and continued north.

When Emperor Hui heard the news, he was overjoyed in his heart, and said to the Empress Sun: "Sima Fa was entangled by Ning Ze, General Ma defeated Lu Cong's soldiers and horses all the way, and soon arrived in the imperial city! ”

Sun said: "The big thing has not been accomplished, Your Majesty still needs to be cautious!"

"I know!" Emperor Hui was overjoyed, "We can also prepare in advance, so that we can cooperate with General Ma." ”

So he contacted Taichang Sun Pu and asked him to mobilize private soldiers, and when Ma Jian arrived in the imperial city, he assisted from within.

Ma Jianjun stormed Yueling County, and Li Xun and Lu Jian joined forces to block it.

Lu Cong suddenly received a letter from Sima Fa, in which he said: "Ma Jian took advantage of my eastward expedition and waited for an opportunity to go north in order to win Emperor Hui. When paying attention to the movement of the DPRK and China, in case Emperor Hui and Ma Jian conspire, the inside and the outside should cooperate. ”

Lu Cong immediately ordered to closely monitor the movements of the ministers of the DPRK and China.

Soon learned that Taichang Sun Pu had been acting strangely recently, so he ordered a thorough investigation and found that Sun Pu often entered the palace and met with Emperor Hui and the Empress too often. And secretly recruit private soldiers, cronies.

Lu Cong immediately ordered people to monitor Sun Pu and the officials and generals who had been in close contact with him recently, and reported any disturbances as soon as possible.

Ma Jianjun fought with Li Xun and Lu Jian in Yueling for more than a month, and Feng Qiao used a provocative strategy to undermine Li Xun and Lu Lian's mutual trust and make them suspicious of each other.

Li Xun mistakenly thought that Lu Jian was going to seize his own soldiers and horses, but Lu Jian was misled, thinking that Li Xun was secretly in contact with Ma Jianjun and was preparing to surrender to the enemy.

The infighting between the two sides made Ma Jianjun seize the opportunity to break through in one fell swoop.

Li Xun was trapped, unable to fly, and had to surrender to Ma Jian.

Lu Jian was defeated and fled, and withdrew to Miliang.

Ma Jianjun captured Yueling, and the army went north to the imperial city of Miliang.

Lu Cong deliberately spread the news to Sun Pu's ears.

Sun Pu was overjoyed and immediately entered the palace to meet Emperor Hui and the empress.

Emperor Hui was busy ordering Sun Pu to write a letter and secretly send it to Ma Jianjun's army to agree on a signal.

Sun Pu asked his henchman Xu Jing to quietly go out of the city with the letter, but he didn't expect that the city gate guards who had been bought off were replaced, Xu Jing was captured on the spot, and the letter was found and sent to Lu Cong.

When Lu Cong saw the letter, he was furious: "Liu Zhe Xiao'er, if it weren't for your true appearance, would you be able to be the emperor?"

Immediately tore up the letters, ordered someone to forge the documents, and sent them to Ma Jianjun.

Ma Jian got the secret letter, and he didn't know if it was fake, so he immediately led the troops to kill.

As a result, Lu Cong set up an ambush in advance, and he was defeated.

Fortunately, Feng Qiao improvised and designed to get rid of Lu Cong's pursuers, and Ma Jianjun temporarily retreated twenty miles.

Emperor Hui has been waiting for Ma Jian's response, but he can't wait for Xu Jing to return.

Suddenly, I heard that Ma Jian's army attacked Miliang, and was ambushed by Lu Cong, and the soldiers were defeated, and I was at a loss.

Sun Pu hurried to the palace and said to Emperor Hui: "Your Majesty, Xu Jing has not returned, and Ma Jian has not yet replied to the sudden attack on the city, I am afraid that Lu Cong will see through it and make an obstacle from it!"

Emperor Hui was shocked: "This matter was learned by Lu Xiang, and I am in danger!"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the minister personally led the troops to deceive the city gate, escorted His Majesty out of Miliang, and joined General Ma!"

So Sun Pu secretly took Emperor Hui and the Empress out of the palace, gathered private soldiers and hurried to the south gate.

As soon as he arrived at the south gate, he saw the army around, Lu Cong personally led the troops to intercept it, and asked in a deep voice on his horse: "Where is Your Majesty going?"

Emperor Hui was frightened, and he held the queen in the carriage and did not dare to reply.

Sun Pu hurriedly led his troops to protect the carriage, and stepped forward to reprimand angrily: "Lu Cong, do you want to rebel?"

Lu Cong sneered: "If you want to rebel, I'm afraid it's Sun Taichang, right?"

"Nonsense!" Sun Pu scolded angrily, "Your Majesty is here, why don't you get off the horse?"

"The thief is on the side, the situation is urgent!" Lu Cong said, "I think Your Majesty can understand." ”

"What does Lu Xiang mean by this? Where is there a thief here?" Emperor Hui asked tremblingly.

Lu Cong beckoned, and his subordinates escorted a bloody prisoner to the front, this person was already dying, and he was dragged over by two people.

Emperor Hui and Sun Pu saw this person's face clearly, it was the strategist Xu Jing.

"This person is a confidant of Taichang," Lu Cong narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "secretly contacted Ma Jian with the intention of rebelling, and was captured by Benxiang." Your Majesty, you often collaborate with the enemy to rebel, and the Prime Minister has come to arrest the traitor and rescue Your Majesty!"

Emperor Hui said in his heart, you can really reverse black and white! Sun Pu obviously wants to save me, and you are the real traitor.

But in the face of Lu Cong, he didn't have the courage to say this sentence to his face.

"Lu Cong, you are the thief who plots rebellion!" Sun Pu pointed at the other party angrily, "Everyone in the world knows that you use Your Majesty as a puppet until the imperial power is lost." With me here, how can you be presumptuous? Someone, protect Your Majesty for me, and fight a bloody way!"

Sun Pu's soldiers and horses got the order and directly escorted the carriage forward to kill.

Lu Cong waved his hand: "Eliminate the traitor and rescue Your Majesty!"

The army immediately faced Sun Pu, and the two sides engaged in a fierce battle.

In the end, the imperial city was under the control of Lu Cong, where was Sun Pu's soldiers and horses enough? After a short time, he was completely killed by Lu Cong's army.

Sun Pu was also slashed to death by Lu Cong's generals.

Emperor Hui was frightened and at a loss.

When Queen Sun saw Sun Pu's death, she was too sad and killed herself in front of Emperor Hui.

Seeing that hope was shattered, even the queen died in front of him, and Emperor Hui was stupid.

Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Lu Cong immediately rode forward: "Your Majesty, the traitor has been eliminated, please return to the palace with the prime minister, and plan to list Ma Jian as a rebel!"

Emperor Hui looked down at the queen lying in a pool of blood, and when Lu Cong got closer and closer, he had the courage to grab the dagger that the queen used to kill herself, looked directly at Lu Cong and shouted: "The loyal minister of Taichang State, Lu Xiangfang is a thief who plots rebellion!

"No!!" Lu Cong was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

It was just a step too late, and Emperor Hui killed himself in the carriage, next to the empress, and blood soaked the carriage.
