Guo Mengsheng's eyes were cold, and he saw that the Huns in the distance had already set up camp on the border, how could he not be apprehensive in his heart.

muttered to himself, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't let your humble position down." ”

And in the capital, the crown prince Li Yunxing is also paying close attention to the overall situation.

He had to pay attention not only to the situation in the city, but also to the movements in the surrounding places.

The main goal of this expedition was to rescue the Chu State, so he had to control all the movements around the Chu State in order to be ready to turn the spearhead and attack the Xiongnu at any time.

According to the original plan, Qin Zhongyi stuck to Youzhou, and Liu Chen led his troops north to attack the Xiongnu with the Chu State.

Besieged and killed the remnants of the Xiongnu army at the border of the Chu River, completely removing the threat from the south of the Chu State.

But Liu Zhongqing is very good at making trouble for him, he has obviously issued a military order, but the entire southeast battalion has been unable to pull out the camp and set off.

Li Yunxing frowned, and had a hunch in his heart that Liu Zhongqing was probably playing tricks behind his back again!

"Rumor that Ryu Jaesuke entered the palace to meet him."

Jiang He immediately agreed next to him.

Soon, Liu Zhongqing, who was neatly dressed, was summoned to the palace gate to kneel down and say goodbye, "The minister sees His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Li Yunxing snorted coldly, "This palace remembers that the general order was sent to the southeast military camp just three days ago!" Why did they not leave camp yet? ”

Liu Zhongqing bowed his head and said, "The prince is angry, this time the military affairs are heavy, there is a shortage of grain and grass in the southeast military camp, and it may take several months to complete. ”

"You!" Li Yun was angry, he didn't expect Liu Jaefu to be so shameless.

It's not that he hasn't checked the military spending of the southeast battalion, which has been the highest among the four major military camps over the years.

What's more, the southeast coast is a land of fish and rice, rich in products, abundant grain and grass, and there is no shortage at all!

"Yoo Jae-fu, you're talking nonsense with your eyes open!" Li Yunxing's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth.

Liu Zhongqing may not have expected that the prince would speak so directly, and he didn't react in an instant.

Angering the crown prince is not a bad thing for Liu Zhongqing.

Recently, he has suffered too much in front of the prince, and now he is worried that he has no chance to take revenge.

Liu Zhongqing lowered his head, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Mingjian, the treasury has been empty for nearly half a year, not to mention that the Hun army committed our Wu Dynasty suddenly, and many village soldiers are still stationed, so it is normal to set off in a hurry." ”

"Ridiculous!" Li Yunxing was angry, he stood up and glared at Liu Zhongqing angrily, "The people of the Wu Dynasty are all fathers and villagers, and now when the country is in danger, Liu Chen dares to disobey the order!" It's a sin that deserves death! ”

Liu Zhongqing said in his heart: Prince! If you want to go to war, do you still expect our southeastern battalion to cooperate?

However, Liu Zhongqing only dared to slander twice, but his face showed a look of panic, "The dog has always been loyal and patriotic, and he will not live up to His Highness's expectations." ”

"It's just that this march is not done in a day, and the old minister also knows that the prince is anxious, but it is not bad for these few days, why don't the prince be patient, and it will not be too late for me to set out after the preparations are properly prepared."

Hearing this, Li Yunxing took a deep breath.

Liu Zhongqing has already received a letter from Xiongnu Shan Yu, at least he knows that there is definitely a secret promoter of the whole thing.

If the army arrives as soon as possible, captures Guo Mengsheng, and tortures him, I don't believe that he can't pry his mouth open.

Therefore, Liu Zhongqing still pursues the word "drag", as long as they do not openly refute the prince's military order, then they must not disobey the order.

In this way, the prince could not do anything if he wanted to sprinkle fire on them.

Li Yunxing also understands this, so although he is extremely resentful, he is not willing to tear his face with Liu Zhongqing at this moment.

The more anxious he is, the easier it is for Liu Zhongqing to hold his life.

Didn't Liu Zhongqing want to stand still? He's not what he wants!

Li Yunxing took a deep breath and held back his anger.

"In that case, this palace can't be forced." The emotional fluctuations in Li Yunxing's eyes at this time have been completely eliminated.

He and Liu Zhongqing are both chess players, and whoever can hold his breath first will lose the upper hand.

Li Yunxing is now standing in the position of "attacking", Liu Zhongqing is in the position of "defending", Liu Zhongqing can afford to drag it out, but Li Yunxing can't afford it.

The so-called "attacker" strikes first against the enemy.

If the upper lane is not clear, attack the middle lane, and if the middle lane does not move, attack the lower lane!

In short, he must rush before the Xiongnu army arrives in the city of Qidang, let the southeast army go north as soon as possible, stick to the opposite bank of the Chu River border, and prevent the Xiongnu army from raiding and crossing the river.

Liu Zhongqing saw the prince's transformation and suddenly felt strange.

According to his understanding of the prince's character, the prince will definitely be furious at this time, and even anger at him, using the topic to play.

Why is the prince so indifferent now?

Li Yunxing sneered, then stood up, "This palace also hopes that General Liu Chen can live up to this palace's ardent expectations for him, as Lord Liu promised. ”

"But seeing is believing everything, this time the army is very difficult, this palace will go south with Liu Zaifu tomorrow to the southeast camp to reward the army, and you can also see what food and equipment the southeast camp lacks?"

Liu Zhongqing said in his heart, the prince clearly wants to supervise the army!

But on the surface, Liu Zhongqing still said respectfully, "His Royal Highness the Prince, Weichen thinks this move is inappropriate, after all, the prince's status is precious......"

"Hahaha, Prime Minister Liu, you don't have to dissuade this palace. This palace is a royal clan, how can it be afraid of even this small march? Li Yunxing said loudly.

Liu Zhongqing looked at Li Yunxing with a dark look in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, he was going to give Li Yunxing the opportunity to stumble, but now he was used by the other party and let himself fall into a quagmire.

"Then the old minister will go with His Royal Highness the Prince."

Liu Zhongqing barely managed to squeeze out a smile.

Li Yunxing nodded with satisfaction, "This palace is really not mistaken, Liu Zaifu still knows the general situation!" ”

In his heart, he actually hoped that Liu Zhongqing would continue to refuse, but Liu Zhongqing was obviously much smarter than him.

After Liu Zhongqing left, Li Yunxing's face suddenly became gloomy.

The embroidered clothes next to Yu Shi Jianghe also witnessed the whole process, and it was inevitable that he was a little worried.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, it is better to have his subordinates do the work on his behalf when he goes to the southeast camp, then the southeast is the territory of the Liu family, and Weichen is worried about the safety of His Royal Highness the Prince."

Jiang He said sincerely, he knew Liu Zhongqing's personality too well.

If he is allowed to seize the slightest opportunity, I am afraid that he will take revenge on His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be in a very bad situation.

Li Yunxing waved his hand, "Liu Zhongqing is not so stupid, if this palace goes south with him and dies on the road, do you think he can be alone?" ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very worried, so why doesn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince send other generals to the southeast?" Jiang He suggested.
