It has been three days since the Western Expedition arrived at Tongguan.

The army is still stationed outside the pass, but this should be a solemn barracks, but it seems not calm.

The wide-bodied guards at the camp gate occupied the shrine of three ordinary soldiers, beating drums in their hands, a few gongs in the back, a pan flute in the middle of the road, and a few dancing with the beat.

The world dance is quite successful, and the actual combat ability of this Western Expedition army is not mentioned for the time being, and the dance of ten thousand dances is particularly bluffing.

The children in the big tent of the Chinese army are very good at enjoying it, although they still haven't entered Tongguan, but Mei Ji and Mei Maiden are a lot.

The music girls in the camp are playing the harp, se, bell, and chime, which are more elegant than the outside, and there is no shortage of dancers accompanying the dancers.

"Your Majesty!"

Li Lie stepped into the camp gate, Zishou was still immersed in music and dance, poured a sip of wine, and still lay down, shaking his head to the beat, with no intention of getting up at all.

"Smack!"

The scene of singing and dancing has lasted for a day and a night, Li Lie really couldn't stand it, picked up a lupa in his hand and threw it on the spot:

"Your Majesty, you really can't go on like this!"

"Even if the three armies are resting, we can't go too far, if Wen Taishi knows about it, he will definitely be heartbroken, and the thieves in Xiqi will laugh at us!"

Li Lie beat his chest, obviously extremely disappointed with this scene, the leader is Lu Xiong, it stands to reason that it doesn't matter how the king eats, drinks, and plays, and he can also implement the extravagance in Tongguan and promote the economic development of Tongguan.

But this is the barracks, the army of the Western Expedition will go to Bishui Pass to fight with the Zhou army in the near future, and when they hear the singing and dancing in the big tent, what will the soldiers think in their hearts?

Everyone else has hit the door, as a king, how can there be a reason to hand over everything to the courtiers and eat, drink and have fun by himself?

If it is a mediocre and incompetent king, then forget it, maybe it is a good thing, but the king of Wen Taowu is not rare in the world?

Isn't this self-defeating martial arts?

Seeing that Li Lie was so excited, Zishou turned sideways slightly and hooked his hand: "General Li, come close first." ”

Li Lie stepped forward, and Zishou handed over a glass of wine: "Take a sip." ”

"Your Majesty..."

"Take a bite. ”

"Gollum grunt..."Li Lie wiped his mouth: "Wine is good wine, it's just..."

Zishou blocked his words in time: "It's just that there is a lack of delicacies, right? It's a pity, I forgot to take my big ding, this Tongguan ding, when I eat hot pot, I always lack a little taste........"

"Your Majesty!" Li Lie interrupted sternly, and he didn't care about the superiority and inferiority of the human race, anyway, he was a dragon clan: "If Your Majesty is still like this, I can't stay anymore!"

"Okay!" Zi was photographed and was overjoyed: "It's just right if you can't stay, you go back to Chaoge and carry my Dading over!"

Li Lie was so angry that he turned his back and walked out of the tent.

Zishou clapped his hands and said to the frightened musician and dancer: "Regardless of your business, continue to play music and dance!"

It's another night of singing and dancing, and at this time, it has been replaced by the second batch of music girls and dancing girls.

The scale of the music has also become grander, not only with the piano and drums, but also with a set of bronze chimes specially moved out of Tongguan.

There are many more dancing beauties, and even the costumes and makeup on the beauties are more exquisite, dancing with the music, such as Ling Bo moving slightly, and the fairy is in the world.

Zishou yawned, raised his hand, summoned Yin Rui, and ordered: "Beat the drums and gather the generals, and everyone will discuss the war." ”

"Yes!"

Yin was ruined and hugged his fists, in fact, he couldn't see the pleasures of the king for several days in a row, but he didn't say anything to dissuade him, unlike Li Lie, the general of the Imperial Forest Army, the general of the guards belonged to the internal guards, and it was enough to lead the three hundred guards to do a good job of guarding, talk less, do more, eat more, and it would be over.

He was about to pull the dancers back so that it would be convenient for him to gather for deliberations, but as soon as the sound of the music stopped, he could hear a sentence from the top: "Gathering will be deliberations, singing and dancing will be singing and dancing, and the two are not contradictory, then play music, and then dance!"

Yin was ruined and helpless, the three-way drum sounded, and the generals gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army.

In the big tent, there is still the scene of singing and dancing, but the dancers have never played and danced at such an important moment as gathering the generals, their expressions are a little unnatural, and the movements and beats of their hands have become less incoherent.

Lu Xiong's face sank like water, how could he have seen such a scene in the barracks?

He persuaded bitterly: "Your Majesty, the Western Expedition is a matter of national fortune, and it is really a military matter, how can it be such a child's play!"

Zishou plucked out his ears, and the music was too loud to hear clearly: "What did the old general say just now?"

Lu Xiong's face flushed, he really didn't know why the King of Zhou, who had been directing his expedition to the west the day before yesterday, suddenly became like this, so he had to repeat what he had just said again with his throat, hoping to wake up the King of Zhou.

"Oh, that's it. Zishou smiled lightly: "I am just seeing off the army of the Western Expedition, I am playing music and dancing here, can it still affect the front-line war?"

He is telling the truth, he won't fight a war, and the consequence of blindly pointing fingers is that either he will win a big battle, and the momentum will rise and fall, or the mediocre value will fall before he has time to settle the battle.

In that case, isn't it just right to listen to music and watch dances and erect a negative image?

Lu Xiong was speechless, yes, the commander of the Western Expedition is himself, no matter how much the king sings and dances, it has nothing to do with the war.

And....

Lu Xiong suddenly remembered that when the king of Xuan was sick and did not go to court for several days, he had mentioned that he had defiled himself to confuse the enemy, and the war situation was based on this.

Isn't the music played in the barracks the best way to defile the enemy?

He looked at the musicians and dancers, these women were young and beautiful, many of them were witches who had changed careers from witches after burning books, and their identities were more complicated.

The first batch of dancing girls and musicians are from Yu Hualong's mansion, these women have clean identities, and there will hardly be Xiqi's spies, but they can sing and dance day and night, and there are a lot of rotating dancers and musicians needed, and Yu Hualong had to recruit some from the rich and noble.

It is difficult to say whether the identity background of these women is clean.

Xiqi fears the gods of heaven and admires Wu Zhu, naturally has a lot to do with Wu Zhu, many witches and gods have been in Xiqi, the relationship is complicated, and there are many Xiqi people who sneak into the big business as Wu Zhu, I'm afraid.

Even if they don't, the nobles behind these dancing girls and music girls are not necessarily of the same mind as the big merchants, and the nobles who fully support the big merchants can count them on one hand, and the nobles in Tongguan are likely to get the news through these women, and then pass on the information in order to curry favor with Xiqi.

That is to say, in any case, the singing and dancing in the barracks, and the fact that the king is greedy for pleasure will be spread to the Zhou army, and it will be the Zhou army that will be in trouble.

The Zhou army didn't know how long the merchant army of the Western Expedition would stay in Tongguan, and he didn't know whether the king of Xuan was personally recruiting or seeing him off, and even had the experience of the previous three-day rapid march, even if the singing and dancing were leveled, the Zhou army had to be on guard all the time, in case the merchant army singing and dancing suddenly came to a rapid march and rushed to the front line day and night, but it would be bad.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiong couldn't help but laugh at himself, he was really old, and he would still worry about these, even if he was greedy for pleasure, it would not be now, every word and deed must have a deep meaning, and then, just quietly listen to the instructions of the king.

Zi Shou didn't notice that Lu Xiong had already made up the real battle in his mind in this moment, he just stretched out his finger and pointed at Lu Xiong, and said: "Old general, you are the commander of the Western Expedition, first tell me your opinion, how should you deal with Nangong Shi's army and solve the dilemma of Bishui Pass?"
