The summer night is silent, and the bright stars echo the burning torches outside the palace, as if the stars in the sky have fallen into the world, igniting the chaos of the world.

"Be careful! Don't mess with your majesty. ”

Although the old eunuch was old, he still rode steadily on his horse.

He was followed by several henchmen and ministers relied on by Emperor Feng, and the other was the 200,000 troops led by Li Wei.

As for the newly recruited 300,000 troops, for fear that things would leak, Emperor Feng didn't bring them at all.

After all, in Emperor Feng's opinion, the army composed of 300,000 people was useless at all, in fact, the most important reason was that the food collected was completely insufficient to feed so many people. And Emperor Feng felt that as long as he arrived in Huaibei and married Princess Beixin, all the military and material resources in Huaibei would be his, and he didn't care about this person.

Ji Yang is a prince, with a very high status, and he is very close to Emperor Feng's carriage.

"Lord Wang, the matter has been done." Fauber drove over to Ji Yang and whispered.

Just now, the Duanwang flagpole outside Kyoto City was suddenly nailed by a feather arrow, and the soldiers took off the arrow and found that there were still words written on the brocade tied on it.

"Emperor Feng's old boy wants to escape! There are no doors! ”

King Duan squinted his eyes and immediately put on his armor and walked out of the tent, "Gather a large army to attack the city for me immediately." ”

"Lord Wang, will there be fraud?"

The person next to him asked.

King Duan sneered, "Emperor Feng's escape, regardless of whether it is true or not, in the eyes of this king, it is that Emperor Feng is timid and afraid of things and wants to save his life, so he asked the soldiers to shout under the city gate that Emperor Feng abandoned the city and fled for his life, I want to see if the guards in Kyoto still have the heart to guard the city gate when they hear this news!" ”

"Emperor Feng has fled, what are you still doing here!"

"Yes! Emperor Feng doesn't want you anymore......"

The guards of the city gate heard the noise below, and hurriedly checked, and their faces turned white after hearing what Duanwang's people said, and then they realized that the only people guarding the city gate were their newly recruited soldiers, and the 100,000 forbidden army was completely gone.

"General Lee is not here."

"General Cui didn't see a figure either......"

The hearts of the people were completely scattered.

King Duan was full of energy, and before dawn he broke through the Kyoto City Gate.

didn't have time to rectify Kyoto, and King Duan kept leading people to chase Emperor Feng.

Looking at Kyoto with the city gate open, Xu Mao raised his hand, "Let's go!" It's our turn. ”

The soldiers of Duanwang, who had just been terrified of fire prevention and murder by the people of Kyoto, lamented that this time they were afraid that they would not be able to escape, and they never thought that the next moment they would rush in the army again.

But compared to King Duan's fierce soldiers who had eaten human flesh, this army looked very imposing.

In particular, the Huainan flag held high made everyone in Kyoto look forward to it.

Easily captured the remnants of the soldiers left by King Duan, Xu Mao signaled the soldiers not to act rashly, and stood up and shouted loudly: "Emperor Feng is not benevolent, he betrays his ancestors and abandons the people, he is really not worthy of being the emperor." The king of the wolf is ambitious, burning, killing, and plundering, and he is not worthy of being the king. We, Huainan, ask for the lives of the people of the world, and we must protect the world. ”

In the silence, Xu Mao immediately ordered someone to post the rules that had been prepared long ago on the city wall, and asked people to read them aloud to the people of Kyoto. ”

"Rest assured, we have the most important rules in Huainan and will never use a knife against our own subjects."

Xu Mao did not rush to chase after Duanwang's men, but spent a few days to rectify Kyoto, and brought out Cui Yu, who was imprisoned in Dali Temple, and did not dare to let this kid go for the time being, so he had to watch it under his nose.

"Write to Luo Niangzi, Kyoto has been occupied by us. Let Luo Niangzi arrange for someone to come and take over. Although Xu Mao has also been a civil official for a few years, his way of governing Shucheng can be said to be completely in accordance with the methods of the army, and he really doesn't care about Kyoto.

"Marshal, General Zhao has caught up with King Duan's soldiers and horses. But King Duan was at war with Emperor Feng, so he didn't act rashly, and sent someone over to marshal you, whether to continue and wait. ”

The scout hurried back to Kyoto to report the situation to Xu Mao.

"Keep waiting."

Xu Mao's march is mainly stable, and now Duanwang and Fengdi eat dogs, he is naturally happy to watch the excitement on the side, but he does not dare to relax in the slightest, "Let Zhao Feihu always pay attention to the movements of these two people, and when Luo Niangzi arrives in Kyoto, I will immediately lead the troops over to join him." ”

That's nearly two months.

Waiting for Luo Lingzhi and Feng Xun to deal with the affairs of Kyoto thoroughly, waiting for Huaibei to be impatient to ask Huainan as the queen what was in mind for Chen Bing's hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Xiangzhou......

"Huaibei moved."

Xu Mao couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, he didn't completely crush Emperor Feng and the others for a few months, just to hook out Huaibei, and now Huaibei is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and he can't bear it at all.

Luo Lingzhi just asked Cui Taishou and others from Sichuan City to talk to Cui Yu, she sat next to her and listened, and then she would find that there are such stubborn people in this world, but you can't hate it.

It was also at this time that Luo Lingzhi somewhat understood why Ji Yang, such a cold-hearted and cold-hearted person, would protect Cui Yu so much.

"Lord Xu, there is not much left until our one-year deadline, what are your plans?" Putting aside Cui Yu's matter for the time being, Luo Lingzhi raised his head and asked Xu Mao with a smile.

Xu Mao also smiled and arched his hand: "That's enough!" ”

"The 200,000 troops in Jizhou have been completely defeated, and there are not many defenders in Jizhou, Youzhou and other places. Xu Mao came to see Luo Niangzi today, in addition to informing Luo Niangzi that the army was about to kill Duanwang and Emperor Feng with all their might, he also wanted to ask Luo Niangzi to send Bai Lingqing's kid to lead troops to recover the territory occupied by Duanwang. If you can......"

Xu Mao thought about the latter words and continued, "Luo Niangzi is a cheerful person, and I, Xu Mao, am not a person who can go around the bend, and I will say whatever I want." ”

Luo Lingzhi smiled, "When will our Marshal Xu still vomit, if you have something to say." ”

"Dare to ask Mrs. Luo, is the prince unintentionally on the throne?" It stands to reason that as a courtier, such a thing should not be asked! But Xu Mao also knew that Luo Lingzhi's temperament was not that person who was obsessed with power, but he was very simple-minded, so he asked out of bounds.

Luo Lingzhi was surprised, "Is it so obvious?" ”

Rao is Xu Mao was prepared, and he was also choked by Luo Lingzhi's straightforwardness, and then smiled bitterly, "Let's guess that the prince will push everything to the little prince!" If it is not necessary to never come forward, even to discuss with us, there is basically only Luo Niangzi, and even the previous New Year's gifts are distributed to everyone in the name of Xiao Shizi. ”

"Although Dabao is young, his heart is far from being comparable to ordinary children, and then there are all the capable ministers to help, and it is not impossible to govern the world. Why, does Lord Xu have any doubts? Although they didn't say it explicitly, Luo Lingzhi and Feng Xun were indeed leading Luo Dabao step by step.

Xu Mao shook his head and said approvingly: "The little prince has a heart and a heart, and he is more concerned about the world, so he naturally has the ability to inherit the unification." ”

"It's just that Xiao Shizi has lived in Sichuan City for a long time, although Mr. Xu and Cui Jialangjun can teach each other, but this cultural and martial arts, especially the current situation, still needs to let Xiao Shizi personally participate."

He said this, how Luo Lingzhi didn't understand, and smiled, "Lord Xu bothered." This time, Ling Qing recovered Ji, You, and other places, and I will let Dabao go with him. It is also necessary to let him get out of Sichuan City, otherwise there will be no chance in the future. ”
