Chuzhou, a place of capital, has always been fought for.

Xiong Tingbi naturally knows this truth.

At present, there are not many defenders in Chuzhou Mansion, more than 5,000 elite soldiers, Xiong Tingbi almost effortlessly, it only took half an hour to attack the city from the north gate.

"After entering the city, there are three chapters of the covenant! First: Open the grain depot and the silver storehouse, in addition to taking ten taels of silver per person, as a salary, all of which will be distributed to the people's homes, if anyone dares to take the opportunity to rob the people at this time, Xiong will immediately cut it! ”

"Second: Intensify the production of siege equipment! Attack the city of Nanjing three days later! ”

"Third: build the city wall, so that Chuzhou City is completely in the hands of the Liaodong Army!"

Xiong Tingbi's three chapters of the covenant made the people of Chuzhou Mansion finally feel a little more at ease after experiencing the initial panic.

Thieves have always been like combs and soldiers are like grates, and in the absence of restraints, stray soldiers are even more harmful to the people than chaotic people and bandits.

The most important thing is that the Liaodong army, which represents the parliament, really gives money to the people!

Although it is not much, four or five taels of silver per person is enough to make the people grateful.

Even, many people took advantage of the night to pour into the military camp stationed in Liaodong, wanting to take the opportunity to join the army - after all, Wang Qi's reputation is much better than that of Zhu Youzhen, the fake emperor in Nanjing today.

When Chuzhou Mansion is in chaos, the outside world, the situation surrounding Chuzhou Mansion is quietly condensing.

Zhu Youzhen's intention to kill Wang Qi was too much, and when he heard that Wang Qi might go to Chuzhou in person, he immediately issued an order to let the surrounding Nanjing City army rush to Chuzhou collectively to encircle Wang Qi!

And the three chapters of the covenant of Chuzhou Mansion made the new court of Nanjing City tremble!

Wang Qi is going to be stationed in Chuzhou Mansion?

In addition to Xiong Tingbi as the striker, there are also more than 10,000 adults led by Qin Erbao and Lu Xiangsheng, who are also on the way to Chuzhou Mansion.

In this case, everyone knows that a big battle of corpses blocking the river into weirs is about to begin.

At this moment, Xiang Quanzhong, who was far away at the mouth of the Zhenjiang River, was already in a state of blindfolding.

"Lead the troops to Chuzhou Mansion and gather Wang Qi here?"

Holding the holy decree in his hand, Xiang Quanzhong raised his eyes to look at Wang Chengen, who came to announce the decree, and the anger in his eyes almost overflowed: "Princess, Your Majesty knows that so far, in ten days, there are only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Zhenjiangkou, which is far from enough for the planned number. If you meet Wang Qi, what is the difference between it and sending him to death? ”

It's a ridiculous joke!

When the Son of Heaven speaks, how can he be like a on the streets, upside down and change at will?

"Lord Xiang, the emperor didn't expect that Wang Qi would arrive at Suzhou Mansion in person. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if Wang Qi can be surrounded in Chuzhou Mansion, the general trend can be determined! Wang Chengen completely adhered to Zhu Youzhen's will and came to read the holy decree, and in the heart of this great eunuch, Zhu Youzhen, as the emperor, would not make any mistakes.

How could an emperor make a mistake?

After years of serving His Royal Highness King Xin, the current emperor, Wang Chengen has long formed an iron law in his heart: those who are wrong are courtiers, and the emperor will not make mistakes!

"Who said that Wang Qi was in Chuzhou Mansion?" Xiang Quanzhong frowned, obviously unconvinced.

Wang Qi is not stupid!

How could it be possible to risk his life, risk death to enter a dead end, and let Nanjing City be surrounded and annihilated?

"What is certain is that Wang Qi has gone south," Wang Chengen, as a special envoy of the Heavenly Family, announced the angel, and was full of confidence when he spoke, as if he had seen Wang Qi enter Chuzhou with his own eyes: "If Wang Qi did not enter Chuzhou, then how could more than 20,000 Liaodong soldiers and horses go south to Chuzhou and make a posture of attacking Nanjing City?" ”

Hiss.

Hearing Wang Chengen's words, Xiang Quanzhong touched his chin: This is not bad.

With Wang Qi here, more than 20,000 soldiers and horses dared to go south so unscrupulously across several provinces.

If not, wouldn't they have come to die?

"Lord Xiang, time is running out!" Wang Chengen folded his hands and sleeves, and looked at the newly emaciated new military secretary in front of him: "At this time, you don't send troops, wait for Wu Xiang and others to take down Wang Qi. Aren't you making wedding dresses for others? Although it is rare to learn from the dragon's skill, it is. Wang Qi! ”

Wang Chengen's words were like a demon whispering, making Xiang Quanzhong, who was still a little hesitant, immediately pay attention!

"Not bad!" With a bang, Xiang Quanzhong punched the table, causing the teacups to pop up suddenly: "Time is running out!" Even if Wang Qi is there in person, there are only 20,000 people, what is there to fear? I have more than 100,000 soldiers and horses against more than 20,000, and the advantage is mine! ”

"The emperor said the same." Wang Chengen smiled: "Then, Lord Xiang, please!" ”

"Come here, pass on my military orders, all battalion officers, garrison level 1 come to my house to listen to orders!"

After saying goodbye to Quan Zhong, he arched his hand to Wang Chengen: "I am tired of the prince and father-in-law to go back, tell the emperor, I am loyal to Quanzhong, and I will take off Wang Qi's head when I go, so as to take the grace of my monarch and ministers!" ”

"We must bring this to our family," Wang Chengen returned the salute: "Our family is here to wish the adults a victory!" ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" waved his hand to Quan Zhong, and his own subordinates offered Wang Chengen a reward.

"Yo, what's so embarrassing, hehehe," Wang Chengen grinned, spread his sleeves, and accepted the bag of red honorarium without a trace, his expression was so humble.

Xiang Quanzhong at the mouth of the Zhenjiang River had already made up his mind to set out to encircle and suppress the Chuzhou Mansion.

But at this moment, Wu Xiang of Fengyang Mansion has fallen into contradictions.

"What's going on?"

Wu Xiang, who was already preparing to fight Wang Qi to the death under Fengyang City, looked at the secret letter sent by his subordinates, and on the table, the secret decree from Nanjing City rushed by.

"Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?" Wu Xiang was confused.

What exactly does Wang Qi want to do?

If you don't go to Fengyang Mansion to fight, what are you going to Chuzhou for?

Isn't that where you throw yourself into a snare and are surrounded and annihilated?

Wu Xiang didn't believe that Wang Qi really rushed to attack Nanjing City, after all, there were only 20,000 people, so he would fight with his head?

"Father!"

When Wu Xiang was thinking hard, outside the door, Wu Sangui was wearing armor and stepped in.

"You don't go to the city to patrol, what are you going to do when you come back?" Wu Xiang has always been strict with his son.

Although in the first battle of Huojiaodian, this son showed extraordinary combat talent and decisive ability - but Wu Xiang felt that Wu Sangui still lacked actual combat training, and this battle was the time to emerge!

"Father, are you worried about the war in Chuzhou Mansion?" Wu Sangui had obviously received the news that more than 20,000 soldiers and horses in Wang Qi's hands had already headed towards Chuzhou.

"Uncle, what do you think?"

Wu Xiang touched his beard and raised his eyes to look at his son with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Erchen thinks that Wang Qi must be in Chuzhou!" Wu Sangui was categorical and his eyes were blazing.

"You mean, it's just Wang Qi?" Wu Xiang asked rhetorically.

"Father, Wang Qi alone is worth thousands of troops and horses, no matter what Qin Erbao and Lu Xiangsheng want to do, and no matter whether Xiong Tingbi wants to capture Nanjing City, for us, capturing and killing Wang Qi is the most important thing!" Wu Sangui's target has always been Wang Qi.

Capture the thief and capture the king first.

Wu Sangui is well aware of this truth.

"But, abandon Fengyang Mansion like this?" Wu Xiang shook his head: "Ben Shuai got the will, it is to guard the Fengyang Mansion, not to relieve the siege of Chuzhou Mansion, let alone to arrest Wang Qi."

"Father, do you think Xiang Quanzhong will give up this opportunity?" When Wu Sangui opened his mouth, it was Wu Xiang's death hole.

Xiang Quanzhong is Wu Xiang's sworn enemy.

The two started from Liaodong, they were colleagues, but their personnel affairs were against Wu Xiang, and there was a flank in Liaodong, which deliberately delayed the speed of the march, resulting in Wu Xiang's reinforcements not being in time, the war was anxious, and more than half of the losses were lost.

That time, Wu Xiang was almost beheaded because of the unfavorable war!!

Since then, the two have barely died.

Now that the new dynasty has been established, Xiang Quanzhong has stood on Wu Xiang's head because of the support of the dragon, and now speaking of which, if he can seize the opportunity to take down Wang Qi - who will look at the merit of supporting the establishment of the district?

Crunch

Wu Xiang clenched his fists and rattled.

"Father, without further ado!" Wu Sangui took a step forward, his tone urgent.

"Summoning Zuo Liangyu and the others into the hall." Wu Sangui raised his eyes, his eyes were full of murder, and he had obviously made up his mind.

As soon as Wu Xiang's words fell, there were several voices full of anger outside the hall.

"The last general!"

Zuo Liangyu, Huang Keli, Wang Yuanqi and others are all there.

"As long as the adult gives an order, the last general will wait to pursue it to the death!"

Wu Sangui stood in the center of the hall at this moment, and led a few people to bow to Wu Xiang: "Father, unite as one, without further ado!" ”

Seeing this, Wu Xiang slowly got up: "You guys, have you already decided?" ”

"If you can besiege and kill Wang Qi, then you can get the wealth of eternity!"

"Fengyang Mansion, is it what the big husband wants? If you kill Wang Qi and help Huangming, it is the ambition of our generation! ”

"My willingness to follow the adults to Chuzhou and kill Wang Qi!"

"Good !!"

Deep in Wu Xiang's heart, that bloody aura was finally stimulated.

Yes, Wang Qi is the key to the entire Ming Dynasty and the entire Kyushu Wanfang, and it is the core factor of the current disunity between the north and the south, as long as Wang Qi is killed! All problems are solved!

In other words, whoever kills Wang Qi is the reinventing minister of the Ming Dynasty!

Eternal glory, rest with the country, the emperor will see you in the future, and he will call a thank duke!

"I'll wait here," Wu Xiang pulled out the imperial sword on the table: "Go south to Chuzhou, besiege and kill Wang Qi, and take this immortal achievement!" ”

Countless people couldn't sleep all night because of Wang Qi, and when the clouds were moving, the main owner himself was already in Chuzhou Mansion, roasting hot pot and eating mutton.

Chuzhou Mansion, Nanxunfang, Shunlai Restaurant.

Wang Qi happened to settle in the city today.

"This master, this is the famous mutton pot in Chuzhou Mansion, you are blessed!" The shopkeeper diligently ran before and after, and served Wang Qi a wine jug.

"Boss, I heard that the Northern Liaodong Army has been killed, why is your restaurant still open as usual?" Wang Qi picked up the wine glass, handed it to the shopkeeper, and said with a smile: "Sit down and talk!" ”

Shopkeeper Liu has been in Chuzhou City for more than 40 years, everyone has seen it, and when he saw Wang Qi for the first time today, he felt that he was extremely rich and unfathomable, so he served diligently, and now he was pulled by Wang Qi, and it was not easy to get away, so he could only sit on the side: "This master, I have just arrived, and I don't know." ”

"I would like to hear it in detail," Wang Qi poured his own wine and drank it all.

"The soldiers of Chuzhou Mansion will fight, but now Xiong Tingbi leads the troops to occupy, obviously will not stay for long, as far as I know, it is stepping up the construction of siege equipment these days, and is going to Nanjing City" The shopkeeper Liu said while turning his head to observe the Quartet: "Moreover, I look at the northern armies, compared to the new court in Nanjing City, they are more disciplined, and they are not guilty of the autumn season, and they also pay money!" ”

"Hehe," Wang Qi smiled and spoke again: "I heard that Wang Qi is coming?" ”

"Wang Qi?" Shopkeeper Liu's face was stunned at first, and then suddenly turned white, and he said sharply: "You are so bold!" The name of Grandpa Guo, can you call it casually? I see that you are extraordinary, so I am here to serve one or two, but if you are disrespectful to the Duke of Qi, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people! ”

"You are very familiar with Qi Guogong?" Wang Qi poured wine for him again.

"Well, I'm not familiar," Shopkeeper Liu shook his head: "Not familiar." ”

"Then how do you speak for them like that?" Wang Qi was a little puzzled.

"Qi Guogong is an immortal." Shopkeeper Liu spoke, obviously nervous.

"Immortals?" Wang Qi's voice raised a point.

"Do you think that this time in the Chuzhou War," Shopkeeper Liu leaned on the table and said in a low voice: "20,000 people against 110,000 people, is it true?" ”

"What do you think?" Wang Qi asked rhetorically.

"Scatter beans into soldiers!" Shopkeeper Liu slammed, slapped on the table, and said excitedly: "Qi Guogong is a man among the gods, why can he be so brave, attack Jiannu in the north and destroy the fake emperor in the south, all because of the immortal means!" ”

Wang Qi looked at the shopkeeper Liu, who thought it was true, and his eyes subconsciously narrowed: "Who said this?" ”

"Eh" Shopkeeper Liu seemed to feel Wang Qi's sense of oppression, hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "Zhengyi, there is an old Taoist named Li Yangshan, these days, mostly in Chuzhou City, preaching the immortal theory of the Duke of Qi"

"Li Yangshan," Wang Qi grinned.

I haven't seen you for a long time, but this old way is fate undiminished, and I followed myself to Chuzhou Mansion?

"Thank you shopkeeper, please please," Wang Qi made a gesture of invitation.

"Please slow down." Shopkeeper Liu laughed apologetically, then bowed and retreated.

"My lord, do you want to find out Li Yangshan?" He stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

"No, we will meet by fate," Wang Qi waved his hand and ate the hot pot mutton by himself.

When he first met Li Yangshan in Beijing, the old way was just a bull's nose that was eating and drinking everywhere, but now Wang Qi is rising, and his people have also begun to make moves in the southern provinces.

"This person is kind of interesting."

Not long after, Wang Qi finished eating the hot pot and wiped his hands with a white cloth on the side.

Da da da.

The guards outside the door entered the house and bowed down to deliver a letter: "My lord, Xiang Quanzhong led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and he has come from the Yangtze River waterway to Chuzhou Mansion On the other hand, Wu Xiang of Fengyang Mansion led an army of nearly 100,000 people and also went south and came straight to Chuzhou!" ”

"It's okay," Wang Qi still wiped his palms: "Whoever comes first, it's no problem, I'm afraid they won't come!" ”
