Chapter Forty-Seven: A generation of military gods drove cranes away, and the mountain rain was about to come, and the wind was full of buildings

In Nanqi, in front of a luxurious mansion, two teams of black-armored soldiers were changing the guard.

The two generals who led the team were very young, but if there were people who knew them, they would not easily ignore these two people.

Yang Yunxiu, the commander of the Xiaoyi Guard and the general of Fenglin.

Cheng Younian, the commander of the Zhaowu Battalion and the general of Guoyi.

Nowadays, the two young generals in the four armies of the Southern Qi Jing Division are hot, and they are in full swing.

At a young age, the two of them are already in high positions, holding heavy power, and the Xiaoyi Guard and Zhaowu Battalion under their command are the elite of the four armies of the Beijing Division, and their strength is extraordinary.

Both of them were exceptionally promoted by Hong Hui and belonged to Hong Hui's cronies. Regardless of asking, it can be known that the only mansion that can be guarded by the two of them is the mansion of the current Southern Qi National Pillar and the generalissimo of soldiers and horses.

More than a month ago, Hong Hui suddenly vomited blood and fell into a coma in the mansion, unconscious.

Hong Hui is seriously ill, and this matter is not a trivial matter. Hong Hui is the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of the Southern Qi Dynasty, which can be said to be a one-man country, and he bears the burden of the rise and fall of the Southern Qi Dynasty. As soon as this incident happened, it was suppressed by Hong Quan, the official of the Hong Mansion, by thunderous means. After that, Hong Quan summoned the exclusive imperial physician appointed by the palace to Hong Hui to come to treat Hong Hui, and at the same time secretly reported the news to the emperor and several of Hong Hui's cronies.

Although Li Yu, the emperor of Southern Qi, was untalented and unvirtuous, he still knew the importance of Hong Hui, and immediately sent all the imperial doctors with superb skills in the palace to Hong Hui's mansion.

This time, it's a good intention to do bad things. The news of Hong Hui's serious illness immediately spread. Immediately afterwards, the ministers of the DPRK and China went to the Hong Mansion to visit. In fact, they are called visitation, but in fact they are to hear the truth and the truth. Fortunately, Hong Quan forcibly stopped him in the name of Hong Hui, and the ministers were forced by Hong Hui's usual tiger power, and they didn't know the reality of Hong Hui's current condition, so they could only go away.

That is, from that day on, Yang Yunxiu and Cheng You began to personally lead troops to guard the Hong Mansion, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

Yang Yunxiu and Cheng Younian are actually not on the right path, and there have been conflicts between the two. A few years ago, Yang Yunxiu, who had just entered the Fourth Army of the Beijing Division, served under Cheng Younian, and later Yang Yunxiu was sharp and prominent, Cheng Younian was afraid that he would affect his status, so he secretly suppressed it, and the two also became enemies.

However, later, both of them were promoted by Hong Hui, and they were barely considered colleagues in the same camp, so there was no major conflict. But in private, there was no less friction between the two.

The way of the superior pays attention to the word balance, and Hong Hui is naturally happy to hear about it. On the contrary, if the people below are monolithic and mingle, the superior will not be able to rest assured.

Yang Cheng and the others were only promoted by Hong Hui in recent years, and unlike the six leaders who followed Hong Hui in the early years, the two of them are still young, fledgling, and the soldiers and horses in their hands are only one battalion and one guard, so the two of them still need Hong Hui's support, which is why they value Hong Hui's safety so much now.

The six leaders under Hong Hui are now all local dignitaries who hold the military and political power of one side, and they are not in Beijing at the moment. But there is no impermeable wall in the world, and sooner or later they will hear the wind. Each of the six leaders holds heavy power and has many soldiers and horses under his command. was pressed by Hong Hui before, and the six of them were still able to keep to themselves in peace and not cause trouble. Now that Hong Hui is seriously ill, Nanqi can be said to have lost its support suddenly, and the position of the Great Power Pillar and the Generalissimo of the Soldiers and Horses is vacant. The next goal of the six people can be imagined, which must be to enter Beijing to compete for the generalissimo in the name of visiting Hong Hui.

Yang Yunxiu and Cheng Younian are now only hoping that Hong Hui will be able to sober up for a moment and issue a military order to prevent the six from entering Beijing. Even if they can only delay for a while, the two have time to consolidate their power in Beijing and gain more bargaining chips for self-protection.

As soon as the door curtain was lifted, Hong Quan walked into the house, holding a bowl of old ginseng soup in his hand.

"How many imperial doctors, has Guozhu improved?" Hong Hui had to ask every time he entered the house, and he couldn't remember how many times he had asked. Every time I am full of hope, but every time I get disappointment.

Sure enough, several imperial doctors shook their heads, still with heavy faces.

In fact, several imperial doctors knew in their hearts that Hong Hui was already old, and he had been overworked, so he was already haggard and overwhelmed. This time he vomited blood, Hong Hui's body was already on the verge of collapse, if it weren't for the good medicine in the mansion to barely hang his life, this great pillar of Southern Qi would probably have gone west long ago.

However, none of the imperial doctors dared to say this. The whole country of Southern Qi knows the importance of Honghui, and saying this is tantamount to a thunderbolt from the sky, and if the emperor is held accountable at that time, it will be a catastrophe.

When the room was dull, there was a sudden sound of inhalation on the bed, and the imperial doctors hurriedly stepped forward.

"Guozhu is awake!" the maid on the side was the first to exclaim, her tone full of surprise.

However, several imperial doctors glanced at each other, but they shook their heads at the same time.

Hong Quan handed the old ginseng soup to the maid on the side, rushed forward, knelt down on the side of the bed, and cried with joy: "Master, are you awake?

Lying ill for many days, the usual majestic and formidable old marshal was now weakened to the extreme, his face was extremely pale, without a trace of blood, his breath was disordered, and it was sad to see. He opened his eyes vigorously and looked at Hong Quan, as if trying to identify who this person was.

After a while, it seemed that he finally recognized Hong Quan, he narrowed his eyes in reassurance, and moved his lips a few times with difficulty, but he didn't make any sound.

Hong Quan hurriedly got up, brought it to his mouth, and whispered, "What are you going to say, master?" ”

Hong Hui tried a few times, the green tendons on his forehead bulged, and finally made a sound: "Hair... Hair... I... Handsome... Cause... No... No... Allow... Six... Six... Return... Jing! Defend... Sky... Tiande... Big... Great Wei!uh..."

Hong Hui spit out this sentence intermittently, and suddenly his body straightened, his eyes were wide open, and a grunting sound came out of his throat.

Hong Quan seemed to sense something, grabbed Hong Hui, and called out silently: "Master, master." ”

But Hong Quan's hissing call failed to keep Hong Hui, the world's military god who had dedicated his life to the Southern Qi Dynasty, and passed away forever on this day.

Everyone present spontaneously knelt on the ground, threw their bodies to the ground, and couldn't cry.

Hong Quan wiped away a handful of tears and said loudly: "Everyone is not allowed to cry! Immediately send someone to inform the two generals, Yang Yunxiu and Cheng Younian! In addition, send someone to report to the emperor secretly, just say, just say that the Great Pillar... Go!"

When Cheng Younian, who had just walked out not far away, was chased back by the descendants of the Hong Mansion, he felt something in his heart. When he entered the mansion, Yang Yunxiu was already in Hong Hui's room.

The two men looked at each other, silent.

The two of them first knelt on the ground to see Hong Hui off, and then they were invited to the study by Hong Quan.

"Did Guozhu leave any last words?" As soon as he entered the door, Cheng Younian opened his mouth and asked, although Yang Yunxiu did not speak, the meaning of inquiry in his eyes was also very obvious.

Both of them are Hong Hui's henchmen, Hong Quan did not hide it, he said Hong Hui's last instructions, took out six letters, and said: "Order, the old slave has imitated the master's handwriting and written, and has also used the handsome seal, two of you take a look, but there is anything wrong." ”

The letters were not sealed, the two took the envelope, read it in turn, the six letters except for the different names, the content is the same, the letter imitates Hong Hui's tone and handwriting, enough to be fake, and the two did not find any fault.

Since the two of them didn't have an opinion, the old slave sent the secret letter out. "Hong is full of withered and withered, and he is quite numb. He has followed Hong Hui since he was a child, and the two are called master and servant, but in fact, Hong Hui regards him as his own relative. Hong Hui died today, Hong Quan's heart was like ashes, if he didn't have to deal with Hong Hui's funeral, he really wanted to follow Hong Hui underground.

When Cheng Younian left Hongfu, it was already midnight. Yang Yunxiu still stayed in Hongfu to prevent news from leaking.

Hong Hui's death, before receiving the holy decree, the three of them can only hide it, otherwise the news will be shocked.

Fortunately, the order to the six leaders has been written, and it will be issued as soon as possible tonight, and as long as the operation is done properly, the six leaders will not return to Beijing in the short term, and the situation will be stabilized temporarily. They should hurry up and take advantage of this temporary calm to be prepared for anything, just in case.

Thinking about the next plan, Cheng Younian gradually fell into a trance. Suddenly, a thunderclap exploded in his mind: The secret letter is broken! Something is wrong! Cheng Younian turned his horse's head and ran towards Hongfu.

From a distance, Cheng Younian saw Yang Yunxiu, he pulled the reins of the horse, and the war horse man stood up. Before the front hooves of the war horse landed, Cheng Younian had already jumped off the horse, he looked at Yang Yunxiu's puzzled eyes and asked urgently, "Has the secret letter ever been sent?"

Yang Yunxiu said: "As soon as you left with your front foot, the secret letter from your back foot has been sent, what's wrong?"

Cheng Younian sighed and said, "It's broken." ”

He winked and walked to the corner, and Yang Yunxiu immediately followed quickly.

"What the hell is going on?"

"There's a problem with the secret letter!" Cheng Younian said urgently: "Guozhu is seriously ill, although we keep it a secret, but with the ability of the six leaders, we must have already known it. It's just that they don't know if Guozhu is still alive, so they don't dare to be presumptuous. But as soon as the secret letter just now was issued, as long as they saw it, they would immediately know that something had happened to Guozhu!"

"How?"

"Guozhu has just died, and we are restless and negligent. Cheng Younian's eyes were full of remorse: "Guozhu's penmanship is strong and powerful on weekdays, and the words in that secret letter are the same." How can a seriously ill person write such vigorous words? The six leaders are not scheming and brilliant people, and when the secret letter is in hand, they can guess that the pillar of the country is still dead. When the time comes......"

A cold sweat also broke out on Yang Yunxiu's head, and he said: "For today's plan, the only way to do this is to write another secret letter, and at the same time send someone to recover the previous batch of messengers." ”

Cheng Younian interrupted Yang Yun's cultivation and said, "This method is not feasible! The messenger is riding a good horse that is one in a million, and we can't catch up at all." A vicious look shot out of his eyes, and he said coldly: "A small amount is not a gentleman, no poison is not a husband! Immediately send out a military pigeon, and order my Zhaowu Battalion and your Xiaoyi Guard, just say that a few secret saucers of other countries have absconded, and let them intercept and kill those six messengers on the road! They guard the main road of the Beijing Division, which is the way that the messenger must pass, and the speed of the carrier pigeon is several times faster than that of the military horse, and it will definitely be in time! When the secret letter is recovered, we will rewrite and send it, this is the only way!"

Yang Yunxiu was taken aback when he heard this: the messengers sent were all cronies and dead soldiers who were secretly domesticated by the two, and they were loyal to them, and Cheng Younian actually said that he would kill them.

Seeing Yang Yunxiu's frightened eyes, Cheng Younian said: "Those who achieve great things are not informal! Time is too late, make a decision quickly! At that time, as long as a secret letter falls into the hands of the six leaders, we will be doomed!"

Yang Yunxiu gritted his teeth fiercely and said, "Okay, I'll order it immediately!"
