In July of the first year of Daxuan Taihe, Zhong Rouxuan sent Feng You and Zhao He to conduct a fierce battle in Kunshan that lasted for more than half a month, and the two sides won and lost each other, but it was nothing for Quan Bo, and Daxuan's continuous support made Quan Bo's army never interrupt in terms of supply.

And for Zhong Rouxuan, it is not so simple, surrounded by enemies, whether it is Lu Qingchen or Long Tingfei, there is no way to come to support, his own people and grain and grass are lost once in a battle, and the follow-up supplies are almost minimal.

"Niangniang, there is news from Luochen City, the grain withdrawal of Hanjiacang has reached the limit, and we can support it for two months at most." Zhao He's face was embarrassed.

"Is there any news from Jinling?" Zhong Rouxuan asked very tiredly, before the battle of Kunshan, Zhong Rouxuan asked Jinling and Yuzhang for help, Yuzhang's news was good, but whether it was waterway or land, if you want to reach the Luochen territory, you can go to Ning without Xuan, Xuan will definitely not be able to go, Zhong Rouxuan can only hope for Jinling.

Zhao He shook his head helplessly and said, "Niangniang, Jinling is not even willing to meet our envoys, I'm afraid this road will not work." ”

"Xiao Yu wants to take advantage of people's danger, and he is extremely shameless!" Zhong Rouxuan is exhausted now, and all that is left is to scold.

"Niangniang, the night guard recently discovered that Chengdu and Xijing have close contacts, if Chengdu joins the war, I'm afraid it's us..." Zhao He gritted his teeth and said, he knew that as soon as these words came out, he would die or live.

Zhong Rouxuan immediately drew her sword and stopped at Zhao He's neck, and said angrily: "Do you want this palace to emulate Quan Xi's spineless one?!" ”

"! The entire Heluo has been eaten up by them, and only half of it is left, do we still have a way back?! ”

Zhao He is not afraid, in fact, at this point, he can only say such things as Zhong Rouxuan's real confidant, this Zhong Rouxuan is not confused, Feng You's attitude is negative, and he is even already having an affair with Li Qingque.

Zhong Rouxuan suddenly fell into decay, the long sword in her hand fell to the ground, and she sat down on the chair and muttered, "Zhao He, do you say that we really don't have a chance at all?" ”

"Niangniang, Miss Yu Zhangsan said that if you want, she can find a way to send us to Miss Nanyue."

Zhao He has known about this for a long time, but he has never dared or been willing to say it, before he felt that he still had a chance like Zhong Rouxuan, but now the attitude of Chengdu and Jinling is obvious, they are completely defeated.

It has not been a day or two since Feng You and Li Qingque have been eye-to-eye on the northern front, and they are no longer even avoiding, Zhao He knows that it is Xijing who is borrowing the road to contact Long Tingfei.

"What is the attitude of Lu Qingchen and Long Tingfei?" Zhong Rouxuan had the last glimmer of hope, she firmly believed that Long Tingfei and Lu Qingchen were still loyal.

Speaking of this, Zhao He's heart sank to the bottom, he didn't know Long Tingfei's thoughts, but Long Tingfei was Feng You's general, which was enough to show what the result would be, as for Lu Qingchen, according to the dark night guard, Daxuan Tan Ji and Daning Yu Qingwu had sent envoys to contact.

"Niangniang, Lu Qingchen's intentions are unknown, but the Eastern Front has indeed been very stable, presumably Lu Qingchen has already made his own choice." Zhao He deliberately skipped Long Tingfei.

Zhong Rouxuan smiled contemptuously, not knowing whether it was self-deprecation or disdain, she stood up and said, "Zhao He, tell Yu Zhang's side, this palace will try its best to buy her time," Suddenly Zhong Rouxuan stopped and glanced at Zhao He and said, "Are you still willing to continue to follow this palace?" ”

"The last general is the Queen Mother Jianba and Wei Mo, and today's achievements are thanks to the grace of the Queen Mother, and the last general is willing to follow to the death!" Zhao He's kindness to Zhong Rouxuan is sincere.

"Well, you immediately rush to Nanyang to meet Daxuan Chen Zhiqing as soon as you hand over the military affairs, and tell him that as long as Quan Bo stops now, we are willing to give up Luo Chen."

Zhao He breathed a sigh of relief, although his mood was a little low, but at least his life was saved, but there was still a question, why did the Queen Mother choose Daxuan? Their relationship with Daxuan is still very strained.

"Niangniang, why Daxuan?"

"Meng Yan is a gentleman, and now this situation is caused by him, under the rule of Daxuan, the people can still evaluate the gains and losses of officials and generals, not to mention us, he is responsible for our life and death is responsible for the safety of the people, rest assured, he will not refuse."

Zhong Rouxuan's judgment was correct, Meng Yan explained it clearly before Chen Zhiqing's departure, but Chen Zhiqing did not meet Zhao He, but asked Xuan Song, who had just arrived in Nanyang, to negotiate with Zhao He.

Zhao He is familiar with Xuan Song, he has been fighting for many years and has fought several times, Zhao He knows that Chen Zhiqing's avoidance is deliberate, and the negotiation with Xuan Song will definitely not be easy.

Xuan Song sat opposite with an arrogant attitude, and it could be seen that Xuan Song was bound to win this negotiation.

"General Xuan, you and I are also old friends, we are both courtiers, I am afraid that the conditions of the Empress Dowager in Chengdu will be agreed by Emperor Xuan of Chengdu, right?" Zhao He said as much as he could.

"General Zhao, since you are an acquaintance, Xuan will not say anything more, I have already explained to Your Majesty, as long as Zhong Rouxuan gives up Luo Chen, our Daxuan will do our best to escort you, but is there too many of you? Isn't it too long? Xuan Song twisted a piece of paper and said with a joking taste.

For Xuan Song calling Zhong Rouxuan's name, Zhao He's anger was in his throat again, but he had to endure it, it was a matter of life and the future.

"General Xuan, time can be discussed, the number of people cannot be reduced, this is our final bottom line, if you can't be the master, then let the person who can be the master talk to me." You can't get angry, but it's okay to be tough.

Xuan Song smiled contemptuously, got up and said: "How many people did Zhong Rouxuan kill in Luochen City, you can fight it, see if Xijing will give you a chance, what does it matter if I Daxuan?" I Xuan Mou is very happy to watch the fire from the other side, since you don't want to talk to me, then please feel free, I can tell you that Qingshuai is in Hanzhong, the king of Hanzhong is also in Hanzhong, and my prince is also in Hanzhong, you are free. After speaking, he turned around and left, not giving Zhao He any time to react at all.

After Zhao He reacted, he wanted to get up and chase after Xuansong, but Xuanjun didn't give him a chance, and directly stopped them, and informed them by the way that they would leave Nanyang on the same day, otherwise they would be dealt with by the enemy.

Zhao He regretted his recklessness on the way back, but regret was useless, Xuan Song has always been a person who says the same, he will not meet him again, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still took people to Hanzhong.

Chen Zhiqing and Xuan Song, who were enjoying the shade of the tree, shook the pu fan, so comfortable, Xuan Song handed Chen Zhiqing a tooth of watermelon, and said respectfully: "Qingshuai, do you say that we are a little too much to treat him like this?" ”

Chen Zhiqing took a bite of the watermelon and said with a kind look: "You are also an auxiliary commander, you can't only be familiar with military affairs, but also familiar with government affairs, you can't be on the battlefield for a lifetime, after all, you have to return to the court, and you will be a rotating governor at your level in the future." ”

Xuan Song was a little embarrassed and said, "Please also ask Qingshuai for advice." ”

Xuan Song never thought about serving as the rotating governor, first, he didn't want to, and second, he was either a general or a transcendent person who could be the rotating governor now, or he couldn't take his turn.

"Your Majesty hopes to squeeze out Zhong Rouxuan's final scale, and she can't let Zhong Rou Ning with so many backbones in South Vietnam, otherwise the future border troubles will be very serious, Nanling and Rong Gui are now in Zhong Roulan's hands, if the three sisters join forces, who will be the first to be unlucky?" Chen Zhiqing was very interested in instructing young people and preached patiently.

"If the three sisters join forces, the first thing to bear the brunt of is my Chaoyeling or Zhaonan area, and these two places have always been the weakest places in our dynasty." Xuan Song said thoughtfully.

"The children can be taught, so the names of Long Tingfei and Lu Qingchen can't appear, and Xu Shaoting also has to stay, but I think this old fox should have a plan a long time ago."

Xuan Song frowned and said: "Qingshuai, according to the analysis of the Ming Jian Division, Long Tingfei is a pure person, his greatest hope in this life is to expel the alien race and defend the Central Plains, and Lu Qingchen is very interesting, Tan Ji reported that Lu Qingchen has kept a distance from our dynasty and Jinling, and he has been in contact with Yuzhang's envoy recently, which is a bit tricky." ”

"Yes, when Your Majesty made the plan, the focus was on Long Tingfei, but now it seems that Long Tingfei is not a problem, the problem is Lu Qingchen, who would have thought that this guy would be so good at doing things, I think it should be very appetizing to you." Chen Zhiqing has something to say.

Xuan Song scratched his head and just smirked, Lu Qingchen did have an appetite with him, but if such a person wanted to be subdued, he had to be subdued.

Chen Zhiqing knocked him on the head with a pu fan and said, "Boy, don't get out of here!" The old man has already bought time for you, from Nanyang City to Hanzhong, it will take at least half a month to reach the checkpoints on the road, understand? ”

Xuan Song got up instantly, rubbed his hands, and glanced at Chen Zhiqing again, he was hesitating, after all, Chen Zhiqing's body was weak, if something happened in his own jurisdiction, he would really die.

Chen Zhiqing saw Xuan Song's hesitation, and said with a smile: "Boy, you were still playing with mud when I led the troops!" Get out, Your Majesty has given me a thousand Bai Zewei, and the old man of Jiangxia Shuaifu will watch it for you. ”

Xuan Song nodded vigorously, he could let a commanding general of the world do logistics for himself, what an honor, he firmly believed that it would only take seven days to take Lu Qingchen.

Xuan Song did not stop for a moment, immediately ordered the soldiers and horses of his headquarters, and sent a message to Tan Ji and Huo Youji respectively, sending a message to Tan Ji to make him prepare for an attack immediately, to attract Lu Qingchen's attention, and he set off from Nanyang to prepare to blitz Yuzhou, and completely cut off the connection between Lu Qingchen and Luochen City if he took Yuzhou.

Xuan Song is credible, his speed is also undoubted, less than three days to take the entire territory of Yuzhou, the news of the fall of Yuzhou has not yet reached Luochen City, Xuan Song used a day to divide troops to take Changge and Xuchang one after another, at the same time Tan Ji's army also successfully arrived in Xuchang and marched towards Wei.

This series of operations shocked Xiao Yu and Zhong Rouxuan, Xiao Yu urgently transferred Teng Han to take over the Yingzhou military affairs and march to Ningling, wanting to get a piece of the pie, and at the same time inform Poyang to end the war with the Chu army as soon as possible, although everyone is already exhausted, it has long been a perfunctory way of playing.

On the afternoon of the fifth day when Xuansong left Nanyang, Wei Taishou Xianyin went out of the city to ask for surrender, and Xuansong and Tan Ji's army did not stop and went straight to Kaifeng.

In Kaifeng City, Lu Qingchen urgently summoned the envoy of the Xuan Dynasty and asked angrily, "What do you mean?!" While talking to me to confuse me, send troops to fight me! ”

The envoy was also wondering, when he was ordered to send an envoy, Qing Shuai did not inform him that he would send troops to attack Kaifeng, but the matter had already gone out of the demeanor of a great country and could not be lost, so he said calmly with a sigh of relief: "Lord Lu hesitated for too long, this time it is just a reminder!" ”
