Ambush in front of the barracks
The carriage went all the way to the east, and after the eastern capital it went south.
Once here, you can already see the canal channels that have been dug up.
The river is 200 feet wide and eight feet deep, a depth and width that is more than enough for even a boat to cross the building.
However, there is no canal yet, there is no water, and they can only continue to travel by land.
And when Li Xiuzhu went to Chuzhou, when he went to the court in the capital, everyone finally knew that Li Xiuzhu was gone.
Seeing that Fu Wenhan's body had not yet healed, everyone looked at each other.
At this time, Ruan Wenjun and Xiao Rongyu also walked up amid the eunuch's singing.
As soon as he sat down, Ruan Wenjun spoke: "Come on, give Fu Xiang a seat." ”
Fu Wenhan hurriedly saluted and thanked him, and then sat down.
At this time, a minister of the military department stepped forward and admonished: "The queen mother, the queen mother, I don't know why the regent didn't go to the palace today, and the minister has an urgent report from the border to the regent's attention." ”
Before Ruan Wenjun and Xiao Rongyu could speak, they heard Fu Wenhan speak: "Bold, the court is the royal court, what is the urgent report, can't the old man and the two mothers decide?" ”
The person who heard the words hurriedly spoke: "The two ladies forgive their sins, Fu Xiang misunderstood, the urgent report here is what the regent has been paying attention to, so the next official ......"
"Needless to say, read it."
"Yes!"
After a pause, the military official spoke: "The spies have come to report that the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions have formed an alliance, and the Yumen Pass guard will request additional troops. ”
Fu Wenhan was stunned when he heard this, and the two ladies above were also a little panicked.
The dog Rong has just come to attack, and the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions have also come.
Fortunately, Northland Silla was almost defeated in the first battle, otherwise it would be the real trouble.
"How many troops do we have available now?"
Tian Yi, the squire of the military department, stepped forward and said: "Back to Fu Xiang, although we stopped the excavation of the Grand Canal in the two places at the same time, because half of the town guard Bashu was withdrawn, and the rest was extracted by the general, we still have 30,000 available soldiers." ”
"So little?"
Fu Wenhan pondered for a moment, looked at the two women at the head of the head, got up and said: "The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, and the ministers request to mobilize 20,000 people from the 16 guards in Kyoto, and the old general Su Qi will lead the army to support Yumen Pass. ”
Ruan Wenjun and the others have just learned to criticize and fold, how can they understand military affairs.
Fortunately, Li Xiuzhu told them that he didn't just listen to Fu Wenhan in everything.
Therefore, the two did not hesitate.
"The mourning family is ready."
"The main palace is also approved."
Su Qi didn't expect that he would go on another expedition after returning from Yanmen Pass for more than a month, but he was very willing to lead his troops to fight.
"The old minister Su Qi, the order."
Although the problem was solved, they also realized that Li Xiuzhu was not in the capital, otherwise it would be impossible for Li Xiuzhu not to participate in this kind of military transfer.
Whether it is Fu Xiang or the two empresses, it is impossible to make a decision without consulting with Li Xiuzhu, the regent.
So where did Li Xiuzhu, the regent, go?
Just thinking about it, a few officials who received Wu Anjun's backstab guessed it.
As soon as they left the court, several people sent the news of Li Xiuzhu's departure from Beijing.
Their news traveled through the air and was transmitted by different carrier pigeons, so when Li Xiuzhu arrived in Chuzhou, the news of the other party also came back.
Just before Li Xiuzhu was about to step into the military camp in Chuzhou, the ambush came as scheduled.
Seeing that Li Xiuzhu and his entourage were only two carriages, these killers did not sneak attack at the first time, but blocked the way.
"Lord Wang, someone stopped the car."
This time when he came out, the coachman led by Li Xiuzhu were two female guards in the inner courtyard.
There are two old coachmen in his family, one is Lao Ma, and the other is Lao Huang who came with Fu Yuehua.
Lao Huang won't talk about it, the main thing is that it is such a dangerous place, and Li Xiuzhu is not very good at pit Lao Ma's life.
Of course, the main reason is that Li Xiuzhu will relax in the carriage and be tired during the journey, and it is not very convenient to take a man.
Li Xiuzhu had actually heard the movement a long time ago, and he had already dressed himself, and when he heard the words, he walked out, looked at the black-clothed masked people outside and said, "Your speed is very fast, this king didn't bring an outsider with him, it seems that there are people in your court." ”
"And the communication skills are good."
Although Li Xiuzhu guessed it, they didn't panic at all.
The masked man at the head said coldly: "Our master invited the prince to come and be a guest, and asked the prince not to resist and go with us." ”
"By the way, my master is more afraid that the prince will hurt people, and I will ask the prince to take this bottle of scattered attack."
As he spoke, a porcelain vase was thrown from ten zhang away, and it was thrown at Li Xiuzhu in the slightest.
Li Xiuzhu took it casually, but shook his head and smiled.
"What makes you think you can make me obedient?"
Hearing this, the black-clothed assassin was not used to Li Xiuzhu either, so he asked rhetorically: "Where did the prince get the confidence to be able to defeat eighteen with one enemy?" ”
"We are all stuck at the peerless first-class peak, even if the peerless master comes, don't think about leaving."
"The prince will never be peerless, and he will bring a first-class peak, right?"
Li Xiuzhu: ......
Did you guess so accurately? Then if I come up with this kind of lineup, how should Your Excellency deal with it?
There were only Li Xiuzhu, Du Sanniang and Xi Hongxian in the front car, and Bi Xiuxin, Huang Rong and Nalan Mingyue in the back car.
Although Bi Xiuxin is re-cultivating the Northern Spiritual Skill, she has a first-class peak foundation as a foundation, and she is a second-rate late stage with a first-rate cultivation.
During this time, Li Xiuzhu fed her internal strength, and she has returned to the top of the first-class.
However, entering the peerless world requires a lot of internal force at one time, Li Xiuzhu can give it, but he will also be a little injured, he doesn't want to harm himself and others.
Most of the women who practiced the Northern Spiritual Skill at home had reached the peak of the first-class, but none of them had broken through.
But it's also fast, and when the wedding dress magic skills of the female guards in the inner courtyard of the family reach the peak of first-class, it is the time for the women in the family to break through.
Huang Rong is similar, she has been at the peak of first-class for many years, and now she has the magic of yin and yang, and she is only short of the accumulation of yin and yang qi.
Only Nalan Mingyue was almost there, but she was also at the peak of the first-class first-class.
Nalan Mingyue looked at Huang Rong.
"Shall we go out now?"
Huang Rong shook her head when she heard this, and said, "Wait a minute, we go out now to mean that we have the confidence, and we will only let the other party take precautions." ”
"Wait a while for them to do it, even if they will be cautious when they do it, they will definitely not guess that we are all first-class peaks."
"Whether they want to capture us alive or not, they will lose a lot."
At this time, Bi Xiuxin spoke: "Two sisters, I don't know if I can only seriously injure these thieves, they are still useful to me." ”
Huang Rong was stunned when she heard this, and nodded.
"Yes, but I don't guarantee it, you also heard it, the leader just said that these are first-class peaks."
"Although there are not many people who come to arrest us, there should be three people, so it depends on the situation when the time comes."
