Chapter 400 Wings of the world, take advantage of the situation to fly
After sending Jia Zhou back to his room, Xu Mu's face was full of melancholy, which still lingered.
"Han Jiu."
Han Jiu, who was leaning on the railing and reading the sage's book, hurried over.
"Han Jiu, think of some ways to see if there are any famous doctors in Shuzhou and send someone to look for them."
Han Jiu took the order, turned around and ran back.
When Han Jiu walked away, Xu Mu calmed down and prepared to walk back to the palace.
After a busy day, it was getting close to dusk, and the mountains near Chengdu began to take on all kinds of weird and rugged shapes.
"Si Hu, where is your sister-in-law?"
Si Hu was squatting on the ground, sharing roast chicken with Puppy Fu and his children, while bragging about his invulnerability.
"Brother Mu, elder sister-in-law or younger sister-in-law?"
"big……"
"Brother Mu wants to pick mushrooms again?"
"There are eight more roast chickens in the kitchen."
Si Hu's face tightened and he jumped up, "Brother Mu, my sister-in-law was in the backyard of the palace earlier."
After saying that, Si Hu and a few children began to run forward.
Xu Mu rubbed his forehead, straightened his clothes, and then slowly walked into the backyard. As soon as he opened the door, a group of figures rushed towards him.
Xu Mu was startled. He lowered his head and saw that Li Dawan was looking at him cautiously with a red face.
"Xu Lang, Sister Caiwei is not feeling well. But I am in good health today and I just embroidered three mandarin ducks."
Xu Mu picked up the person, turned around, kicked the door shut, gasped and blew out the light.
Over Chengdu, the crescent moon that had just hung on the treetops suddenly became shy and hid in the dark clouds.
Under the dark night.
Wearing a white robe and carrying a sword, he looked up at the great city of Chengdu in front of him, standing in the mountains and forests for a long time.
Tap tap tap.
In the early morning, the sky was still bright. A scout came from the west of Shu in a hurry. The sound of galloping horses broke the tranquility of dawn.
In the palace, looking at the secret message in his hand, Xu Mu sighed.
"Wenlong, Yu Wen sent a letter saying that the body of General Bai Lin has been found."
For Bai Lin, Xu Mu admired him more than he was hostile in his heart. If there was still character in Shu in the past, it must be Bai Lin.
It's a pity that this old general wanted to die. When Xu Mu settled in Shuzhou and wanted to rescue him, he realized that there was no chance.
"The corpse was wrapped in horse leather, and the last few hundred soldiers of the government fought tooth and nail to get it out without letting the tiger barbarians cause harm."
"What are your plans, my lord?"
"A generous burial, honoring my heroic soul in Shuzhou."
"That's right. However, my lord needs to find a way to deal with the tiger barbarians. If the rear is unstable, Shuzhou will be unstable."
Xu Mu nodded. Previously, he specially sent Mrs. Luan Yu to Fuyang County. This was what he meant.
Tiger barbarians have been causing trouble in Shuzhou for many years. Not only central and western Shu, but also southern Shu has been harmed by these beasts from time to time.
But relying on the dense forests of the old mountains, except for the plain barbarians, there is absolutely no way for other soldiers to enter.
"Mrs. Luan Yu has already summoned Pingman Cave Master, and will take action when more troops are gathered."
No matter what, in the end, the plain barbarians will be the main force in suppressing the tiger barbarians.
"My lord, General Bai Lin's grand burial should be done as soon as possible." Jia Zhou's voice paused, and his eyes suddenly became bright and clear. "In addition, it is time to choose a date for the ceremony of proclaiming the king."
"Proclaim yourself king?"
If Xu Mu remembered correctly, Cangzhou's original favor order was to confer him the title of King of Shuzhou. Thinking about it now, it seems like he shot himself in the foot.
"After becoming king, my lord will be justified and the people will return to their hearts."
In fact, the number of generals who should be ennobled is almost the same. As for other laws and policies, they can be decided after discussing with Jia Zhou.
This king-proclaiming ceremony is nothing more than a formality.
Just like you have lived together for eighteen years and have three children, and you get married and have a banquet, you will still receive gifts and blessings.
"Let me tell the world that I, Xu Mu, will come on stage to worship the heavens in a few days and be called the King of Shu!"
…
A few days later, Cangzhou City, Little Palace.
"Shu, King of Shu? Military advisor, this traitor has become the king!" Yuan An was furious after receiving the news.
In fact, not only Xu Mu, during this period of time, in addition to the original three foreign states, even if Yuzhou is added, there are at least six or seven state border generals who have become kings, such as the king of Zhao, the king of Chu
King, King of Ling, King of Yue, etc.
At first, Yuan An could hold it back, but when he learned that Xu Mu was also going to be king, he immediately became angry.
The people who swore to be incompatible could only watch helplessly as he climbed higher and higher.
"Military advisors, everything is in chaos! My great history is in ruins!"
"That's what I meant." The black-robed military advisor next to Yuan An showed no signs of anger, "Your Majesty, I have already said that in this world of great strife, the best way is to first bring order to the chaos and then bring things to an end."
"But the little boss succeeded in entering Shu. He has thirteen counties in Shuzhou! His territory is larger than mine."
"Your Majesty, do you want to rebel?" Under the mask, the man in black robe smiled.
This sentence made Yuan An so choked that he did not dare to speak.
To fight against rebellion? At the beginning, Chen Changqing also said to fight against rebellion, but in the end, the 200,000-strong army was defeated on the river.
"Military advisor, is there any way to kill that thief Xu?"
"I was thinking." The black robe lowered his head, "The poisonous owl has been blocking me. Even the assassin sent out did not reply."
"If possible, I hope that His Majesty will be able to take charge of the expedition himself."
"Your Majesty is marching in person!" Yuan An stood up from the throne in surprise, "I am not familiar with the art of war, so I am afraid that I will not be able to command the three armies. Moreover, if we lose the battle, I may be in trouble."
The black robe let out a sigh of relief, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Military advisor, if not, I will send another message to ask the people of the world to attack the traitor Xu?"
"Your Majesty's jade seal is of no use anymore."
Yuan An was paralyzed on the dragon chair.
"The Yuan family has been in power for more than four hundred years. Could it be that they really want to perish in my hands?"
"Your Majesty, I'm still here, and Cangzhou's heritage is still there, so there won't be any problems." The black robe turned his head, with a cold look in his eyes, "In fact, there is a last resort. If there is a critical moment, your Majesty can use it."
"What's the plan?"
"Borrow others' hands to pacify the Central Plains."
Yuan An frowned and vaguely understood the meaning.
"Of course, I am just talking. But now, no matter what, we can no longer let the Xu thief become powerful. If Liangzhou changes, your Majesty can send people to win over him."
"Military advisor, I heard that the remaining third prince, Dong Wen, is a loser."
"How could he survive until the end if he was a loser?" Hei Pao said with a smile.
Yuan An looked stunned.
"But before, Liangzhou sent out a large army to help Thief Xu——"
"If you are a defensive lord, you will definitely want to make friends with Xu Thief and protect the stability of Liangzhou and Shuzhou." Heipao's voice paused, "But in other words, if you are an ambitious lord, Shuzhou, a land of abundance,
I’m afraid I will try my best to get it.”
"When Emperor Gaozu entered Shu, he returned to conquer the country. This further proves that what he said is correct."
"Military advisor, what are you talking about?"
"Shuzhou is the wing of the world, taking advantage of the situation to fly." Black Robe's eyes trembled, "But no one could have imagined that the Xu thieves with only 30,000 people could actually capture the nine counties of Shuzhong with an army of more than 100,000 people.
