0497, burning eyebrows

After all calculations, Xiong Chu did not calculate that there would be unexpected accidents.

Sheng Kexue actually knew himself, which Xiong Chu never expected.

Sheng Kexue said that he had seen himself in Wanfulou in Pengpo Town, and Xiong Chu quickly deduced a conclusion in his heart: Sheng Kexue is a person from Jinyiwei, and it should be related to the conspiracy of "stealing the book of heaven" back then!

Because there were not many intersections between Wanfulou and Jinyiwei at the beginning, only in the process of the big conspiracy of "stealing the book of heaven", there were more than 20 Jinyiwei. That night, I got the "Book of Thieves".

I don't have the slightest impression of this Sheng Kexue, it should be that he was still a small role in Jinyiwei at the beginning, and he didn't attract his special attention.

It makes sense for Xiong Chu to come to this conclusion, because the original proprietress of Wanfulou was Mo Jiuniang, but today Mo Jiuniang did not recognize Sheng Kexue, which means that this guy was inconspicuous at the beginning.

The participants in the conspiracy of "Stealing the Book of Heaven" show that Sheng Kexue's task in Jinyiwei should belong to the content of monitoring the "rebellious" trend.

He appeared in the middle capital city temporarily, and it was impossible for Jinyiwei to lay out in advance, so Sheng Kexue should not have come for himself.

From this, it can be seen that Sheng Kexue was sent to the Zhongdu City to lurk, and he should have come to spy on others, but he just took the initiative to crash into someone else's fishing net.

I have been placed under house arrest by others, and it is useless to say anything now, and it is even more useless to regret it.

Xiong Chu has experienced everything, even the prison of Jinyiwei has squatted, and he has also eaten severed meals.

But this is the first time that someone else has been placed under house arrest.

When sixty Imperial Forest Soldiers appeared at the gate of Mingxi Tower, Prince Xiong knew that he might be in trouble.

Although the bigger trouble has not yet come, if Sheng Kexue reports this matter to the imperial court, will there be another edict to be decided?

I can't say it, and I can't figure it out.

Yan Erniang smiled bitterly and said, "Xianggong, these Imperial Forest Troops are useless at all, let's just leave." ”

"Absolutely not!" Xiong Chu shook his head: "If we just fight like this, then it will be confirmed that we and Zhang Xianzhong are in a group, but we are clearly not in a group." I can carry other black pots, but I can't ask for this reputation. ”

"Why?" Mo Jiuniang was a little puzzled: "Anyway, in the eyes of the imperial court, brothers are all rebellious, are you still afraid of two rebellious charges?"

Xiong Chu shook his head: "This nature is completely different! The discipline of the Wandering Righteous Army is sloppy, and they have no regard for human life, and they have no rules at all for killing people, and many people who are not guilty of committing crimes to death have been killed. I am not against the rebellion of the displaced people, but I am firmly against the rebellion of the displaced people. ”

"The rebels have no purpose of action, no long-term plan, and no real work for the people. It's not that I look down on them, but the Tao is different, and I definitely don't admit that I have anything to do with the homeless rebels. ”

Fortunately, although Sheng Kexue and others put Xiong Chu under house arrest, they did not abuse him.

Not only was there no abuse, but Xiong Chu and the others also ate the food made by the imperial chef for the first time.

It turned out that Sheng Kexue and the others were worried that Prince Xiong would propose that they would have no food to eat, and then find a reason to go out, so they specially cooked and sent them out from the imperial city.

After lunch, there is dinner, all made by the imperial kitchen, which is really full of color and flavor.

At the beginning, Yan Erniang didn't allow Xiong to store his chopsticks, worried that the food would be poisonous.

Xiong Chu smiled: "Don't worry, even if they want to kill me, they won't poison me casually." Because without the emperor's edict, they didn't dare to kill me casually. Don't worry, Xia Yun and I were arrested and put in prison by Jinyiwei, and it was only implemented after the emperor's decree. ”

Sheng Kexue's ostensible identity is a small hundred households, and he belongs to a small person who can't be on the stage.

But just after dinner, when the two eunuchs came to clean up their things, Prince Xiong knew that his judgment was indeed correct.

Sheng Kexue came again, following the two eunuchs together, leaving no trace at all.

It feels like Sheng Kexue is running errands, but Xiong Chu's opinion is just the opposite.

The others hurriedly withdrew, leaving Xiong Chu alone to walk around here to see what moths were about to come out.

"Zhu Gongzi, I have already investigated the inn as you said, and there are indeed hundreds of corpses inside. I also went to the City Defense Department to find out that you did send someone to report the news yesterday, and the person who reported the news was beaten. ”

Sheng Kexue waited for the two eunuchs to leave, and then sat opposite the Xiong Chu and said with a smile.

Prince Xiong didn't delve into it, but said casually: "What's the use of that? Could it be that because of those two things, Master Sheng thinks I'm not rebellious?"

Sheng Kexue also smiled: "What Zhu Gongzi said is also true, and in fact, the word rebellion is only counted if the emperor says it, and others are not qualified." ”

"I don't think Master Sheng came here for the word rebellion, and he didn't want to say anything clearly. Xiong Chu shook his head, as if he didn't want to continue the topic: "Let's sit here, I'm afraid that some people won't be so idle." ”

Sure enough, Sheng Kexue quickly straightened his back: "I have already sent someone out to take a look, and the army of the Eight Great Kings of Liukou has arrived thirty miles away and set up camp, with no less than 100,000 people. ”

It was all expected, so Xiong Chu was expressionless: "Since the enemy situation is so strict, Lord Sheng didn't urge the relevant personnel to prepare for war, but came here to waste time, do you think that I, Xiong, really want to be an internal response?"

"Definitely!" Sheng Kexue's face suddenly became gloomy: "Compared to Gongzi, he understands very well, the emperor can't be the master of many things in the court, and the rights are controlled by those scholars, so it will be a mess." ”

"Take the central capital city that is now in danger, at the beginning, the governor Yang Yipeng, the prefect Yan Rongxuan, the guard general Zhu Guoxiang and others, usually empty-eyed, would boast and ignore the liukou. ”

"But Zhu Guoxiang was defeated today, and now they learned that the enemy was attacking on a large scale, and they panicked again. At present, there are still quarrels in the urban defense department, some want to defend the city, some ask for help, and there is no law available. ”

"The rogues have come from afar, and they will not be able to stay for long. Asking for help from the outside was worried that his face would not be protected, he lost his black gauze hat, and he had no confidence in sticking to the spot, so he couldn't do anything at all. If this continues, everyone can only wait for death. ”

The corners of Xiong Chu's mouth twitched: "However, Master Sheng came here late at night, but why did he come?"

Sheng Kexue stood up abruptly and bowed to Prince Xiong: "Son, you are also a descendant of the Zhu family, you can't watch the land of the dragon's sleep being ravaged by the rogues, right? ”

"At this time of crisis, I also ask my son to look at the overall situation, abandon his personal honor and disgrace, and quickly come up with a proper strategy to deal with the crisis. Even if my Sheng is smudged, I will swear to follow the left and right to be loyal to the country. ”

"Sir, please sit down and speak. Xiong Chu shook his head and sighed: "As the saying goes: it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. What can I do on my own? Even if I have iron all over my body, how many nails can I make?"

"The central capital city has walls but no walls, and there are cities without pools, so it is impossible to defend at all. The four guards have not been trained for a long time, all the equipment has not been maintained, and I am not qualified to be transferred. Providence is like this, it can only be called in vain!"

Sheng Kexue became a little anxious: "Childe, as far as the current situation is concerned, you are the only backbone in my heart, because now you are a descendant of the Zhu family." If you don't step up, that's the big deal. ”

"As for the soldiers and horses, there are six hundred elite Imperial Forest Army in the Imperial City of Zhongdu, which is an internal guard team that I personally control, and it trains every day, so it should be worthy of a battle. ”

Xiong Chu smiled bitterly and said: "Six hundred, even if one is ten, it can withstand six thousand, and one is a hundred, it can only resist sixty thousand people." With 600 people against the 100,000 army of the Eight Kings Zhang Xianzhong and Lao Hui Ma Shouying, to be honest, this is really difficult for some strong people. ”

"The circumference of the central capital city is fifty miles, and it takes five thousand people to put a hundred people in one mile. As far as I am concerned, the only thing that the 600 men can do is to launch a final decisive surprise attack on the enemy's Chinese army, and finally all of them will be killed. ”

"And my five hundred!" At this moment, Chen Hongzu rushed in from outside: "It's a big deal, you can do whatever you say, son." ”

Xiong Chu did not get up, but waved his hand and motioned for Chen Hongzu to sit down, but did not continue to speak.

Seeing Chen Hongzu coming, Sheng Kexue's eyes suddenly lit up: "Childe, now Lord Chen has taken the initiative to come over, plus my six hundred Imperial Forest Army, there are more than 1,000 cavalry." The rogue is tired from afar, although there are many people, but there are many people, and there are many people. ”

"For example, the problem of food and grass for 100,000 people is the most lethal place, can we take advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold, take the initiative tonight, and burn all the enemy's wolf grass with a fire. If there is no food to eat, they will have no incantations. ”

Chen Hongzu immediately stood up and clapped his hands and shouted: "Good way, someone Chen is willing to give up a blow, go down and prepare now!"

"Wait, Master Shan's words are wrong!" Xiong Chu hurriedly waved his hand: "If the two countries are at war, burning the enemy's grain and grass and cutting off the enemy's logistics and transportation lines is of course a clever move." But we are dealing with a group of rogues, and your way of thinking will not only not have the slightest effect, but will cause even greater disaster. ”

"Think about it, what is a rogue? If you don't have your own fixed territory, you don't have your own people, and you can eat wherever you go. The Eight Kings Zhang Xianzhong, Lao Hui Hui Ma Shouying and others are such rogues. ”

"Even if you burn their grain and grass, there is no danger to Zhang Xianzhong at all. On the one hand, they have no worries, let alone moral constraints. They will soon be able to plunder and wreak havoc on all parts of the country. ”

"On the other hand, if more than 100,000 people on the other side will have no food to eat tomorrow, what will be the result? You must know that they are all displaced people who have no way to live, so they will rise up and rebel. ”

"If you really push them to their death, it will inevitably provoke them to launch a desperate attack on the middle capital. Because of this, the convincing rogues adopt the strategy of cutting off food, which is all the opinion of scholars, and they are looking for death. ”

"Alas, what Childe said is very true. Chen Hongzu sat down dejectedly: "Then what should I do? Can I only sit back and wait for death? Since this is the case, then I can only concentrate all the troops to defend all the city gates, and hold out as long as I want." ”

Prince Xiong pondered for a moment and seemed to have made a final decision: "Even if the soldiers and horses of the whole city are gathered, it is useless now. The 4,000 untrained soldiers are about the same as the common people. ”

"The 70,000 troops under Zhang Xianzhong and Ma Shouying are all troops that have fought bloodily for several years and fought thousands of miles, and they can't resist it from the front. There is only one way to get away with it. ”

When they were desperate, they suddenly heard that there was a way to survive in death, Sheng Kexue and Chen Hongzu suddenly stood up and asked in unison: "What way?"
