Four hundred and fiftieth chapters and the tiger seek skin
The battle against Shu in Liangzhou ended with Dong Wen's defeat. According to Xu Mu, it was as if he had broken one of Dong Wen's legs and fled north in a hurry.
If we talk about merits, the young military advisor Dongfang Jing must be the first to achieve success. This sixth conspiracy in the world, which cannot be hidden, will eventually become famous all over the world.
"It's the master's great blessings and the teacher's teachings." Sitting on the wooden wheel, Dongfang Jing didn't have any arrogance.
This appearance made Xu Mu even more happy. His right-hand man would one day follow him to compete in the thirty states of the world.
"Come on, Military Advisor Dongfang Jing is the Order of Taicang in Shuzhou. Together with Military Advisor Du E, he is in charge of the internal affairs of Shuzhou."
It's not the emperor. To a large extent, what he gave Dongfang Jing was more like appointing retainers. But such as Si Hu's invincible general, Han Jiu's Po Liang general... everyone knows it well.
Unless one day these people will follow him, take over the world, and start a new dynasty, then they will be truly established for eternity, and they will be granted the title of marquis and worship of the prime minister.
"The battle to stop the Liang people has demonstrated Shuzhou's majesty, and the results are also abundant. It's a pity that the lord cannot take advantage of the situation and go north."
Firstly, Dong Wen led the remaining tens of thousands of troops and quickly retreated to Liangzhou without any delay. Secondly, the foundation of Shuzhou was like a small tree swaying in the wind and rain, so we must be careful every step.
He was as strong as Uncle Chang, but he took too big a step, and was even stabbed in the back by the dwarf king, Tiger Poison, eating his cubs.
"Lord, it's time to build a wall on the front road outside Yuguan."
Dongfang Jing had mentioned a similar statement a long time ago. However, the war was intense, the tiger barbarians were defeated, and winter came again. After the cold winter, the Liang people came again to attack Shu.
"Send a general to guard the city." Jia Zhou also nodded.
Xu Mu's plan was on his mind. Not many of the old guys who followed him could fight. Even if Han Jiu, who had just been promoted, was included, they were still very few.
When Han Jiu followed Dongfang Jing to fight against the odds, he felt like "there are no generals in Shuzhou, so Han Jiu is the vanguard".
"How about Chai Zong?"
"General Chai followed Dingbei Marquis and fought many tough battles. He is considered a strong general. But... Chai Zong went to the front road of Yuguan, over to Nanlin County-"
Many people's eyes were looking in the direction of Han Jiu.
In the meeting hall, Han Jiu, who was not used to sitting, was stunned for a moment.
"My lord, you two military advisors, please don't look at me. I will ride over there tomorrow! But I have made a promise first. If Liang Gou still dares to come, I will follow the young military advisor to fight."
"No problem... Han Jiu, go to Nanlin County and learn more about the art of war. One day, I will lead you to defeat Shuzhou."
"Lord, don't worry!" Han Jiu looked happy.
In the direction of Nanlin County, there were not only 10,000 soldiers, but also the border troops stationed in the fields, and thousands of barbarian camps under Madam Luan Yu. As long as Han Jiu did not make a charge and guarded the walled city at the pass, there would be basically no problem.
"Wenlong, where is Chen Zhong."
"A letter came, saying that the time to go back and forth to Chengdu was too long, and I was afraid that the Liang people might suddenly break out and make a surprise attack. However, my lord's reward was also sent over."
"He has a calm and cautious temperament, and he is indeed a good general."
There is no doubt about Chen Zhong's loyalty. A person who cares about the continuation of his family will not let the Chen family members who remain in Chengdu suffer the disaster even if he dies.
"Night Owl has recently received information." Xu Mu paused, and his words became a little heavy, "Chuzhou in the lower reaches of the Xiangjiang River has been attacked by land and water by a man named Lingwang Zuo Shiren, conquering half of the state. Chu
The king of the state was desperate and asked for help from the royal family of Cangzhou."
"Of course they won't be saved." Jia Zhou looked determined, "That Su family woman wishes that the world would become more and more chaotic. Only in this way would this dying little court have a chance to take advantage of the chaos."
Xu Mu nodded.
"It's a pity that the identity of that woman has not yet been discovered. It is hidden too deeply. If she is an ordinary businessman's daughter, her planning skills are a bit scary."
"My lord, don't worry, no matter how cunning the fox is, his tail will eventually show."
"As Wen Long said."
…
It was getting close to dusk, and the rare Shuzhou military meeting ended. After sending the two military advisors to the courtyard, Xu Mu had time to go around to the backyard of the palace.
Passing by, I found Si Hu riding the Qiang horse he had brought, showing off to the puppy Fu.
"Little dog Fu, go and tell everyone that a bunch of candied haws on a stick can be ridden once. Eight steamed buns can be ridden for half a day. If someone makes steamed cakes and steals half a basket, my brother Hu will help him lead the horse.
, take him for a walk in the city."
Xu Mu was deeply impressed when he heard this. I dare you to fight so hard to snatch a good horse, just to use it as a cheat.
"Xu Lang!"
As soon as they walked around the corner, Li Dawan shouted with a red face holding a porcelain pot. In the porcelain pot, the wolfberries floating on the soup noodles were as big as fingernails.
"Li Dawan, how much did you pay this time?"
"Eight coins!" Li Dawan raised his little face, with a hint of shyness and a hint of resentment.
"Fight or not? Do you dare not to fight?"
"beat……"
Li Dawan dragged Xu Mu into the house furiously.
The night spread over Chengdu and came out.
…
"Your Majesty, we have arrived in Liangzhou City!"
Dong Wen raised his head and looked at Liangzhou City in front of him, feeling no joy in his heart. Hundreds of thousands of troops attacked Shu, and only about 50,000 remnants were left, fleeing all the way north.
In less than a month, it suffered a huge defeat.
Three generals of the Zhang family were killed in the battle, and Zhuo Yuanzi, the second most important counselor, was also defeated in front of Yuguan. There were also tens of thousands of troops and countless Liang horses and Qiang horses, all of them were gone.
"Military advisor, I don't accept it."
In the carriage, Sima Xiu, who was holding Shahu, slowly walked down.
"This battle to conquer Shu was lost to the arrogant soldier's strategy. Xu Buyi obtained the cool horse armor. I'm afraid it will be even more difficult in the future." Sima Xiu paused and continued, "My lord, if you want to conquer Shu again, it's better to go
Find an alliance."
"An alliance?"
Sima Xiu nodded, "Whoever has a grudge against Xu Buyi in several counties in Xiangjiang is an ally of the Lord."
"Military advisor, what do you mean-"
"My lord, you need to understand that no matter how we fight. To the inner city, or to the barren Dingzhou, Xu Buyi's Shuzhou is like a mountain wolf, watching closely, and you will never be at ease."
"Military advisor, I understand the truth...but this may go against the morale of the military and public opinion."
"It's okay." Sima Xiu shook his head, "My lord is not taking the path of Xu Buyi. On the contrary, in this way, we can win over some royalist families in the three northwest states."
"Furthermore, we only form a secret alliance. That female military advisor is also a smart person. You should understand the reason."
"What if she refuses."
"If my lord were in one state, she might not be willing. But my lord occupies three states in the northwest. Even if you say 'seek the skin of a tiger,' I guess she will think of herself as a tiger."
"I remember that there are still several young members of the Dong family's royal family. My lord can choose one of them to go over. We all want Xu Buyi to die, so there is no harm in sharing the same boat."
Sima Xiu bowed his head and saluted, hugged Shahu, and walked forward quietly. This chapter has been completed!
