Chapter 620 On the way to Liangzhou, I pulled out an old ginseng
"Wenlong, has Chao Yi left the city?"
"My Lord, we have already rushed to Yudang City together with Wei Feng."
Xu Mu nodded. Previously, King Yu Dang gave a fierce blow and beat the envoys of the Great Lun Kingdom into disgrace. But no matter what, there was a back-up to this matter.
"Chao Yi is good at fighting, and Wei Feng can help him. There should be no problem."
This time, Xu Mu did not ask Wei Feng to bring the white-armored cavalry. According to Xu Mu's wishes, such expensive elites would only be used to determine the outcome of the battle.
However, in the iron workshop in Chengdu, Chen Blacksmith has already begun to build the second round of white armor and heavy armor.
According to the current situation in Xishu, the number of people to be prepared is only 2,000 cavalry. Next year, when the warehouse is full of food and grass, we should be able to raise 4,000 to 5,000 cavalry.
"Wenlong, you and I will wait for a while and wait for Lao Huang to enter the palace."
Yin Hu came to report earlier that Huang Daochong has arrived outside Liangzhou City today. If he is correct, he will go to the palace to pay his respects soon.
In this battle against Liang, Shuzhou won a complete victory. In a vague way, a lot of things seemed to have changed.
About half an hour later, just as Xu Mu thought, his old friend Huang Daochong had appeared outside the palace. Before he entered, he cried by himself outside the palace.
"Master Huang, why are you crying?"
Huang Daochong raised his sad face and said, "When I think of the hardships of the King of Shu in starting a business, and the anxiety and hardships along the way, I don't realize how sad I am."
"Huang Family Master Gao Yi Wushuang, you are an old friend, and I, Xu Mu, have made a deal." He cooperated, and only after Huang Daochong wiped his nose twice more, Xu Mu sat upright again.
As a strategic place, Kezhou was undoubtedly what Xu Mu wanted. In the future, when he went to the south of the Yangtze River, Kezhou's role would be extraordinary.
Of course, Xu Mu was not stupid. With only Xi Shu's 100,000 troops, Huang Daochong would bring the entire Kezhou to surrender.
It's nothing more than the balance of chips gradually tilting from Zuo Shiren's side to Xi Shu's.
"I haven't poured tea for anyone in Xishu for a long time." Xu Mu laughed, grabbed the teacup himself, and filled a cup for Lao Huang.
"I'm flattered, I'm flattered. What the King of Shu poured was not tea soup, but the heart of an old friend."
You see, old Oscar talks so well.
Xu Mu coughed and sat upright again, "Previously, I received all the grain, grass and military pay sent by the Huang family. In the past, I would not have accepted it. But when I thought about it, I changed the mind of the Huang family.
, I was afraid that it would make the Huang Family Master sad, so I reluctantly accepted it."
Huang Daochong twitched his face and said, "The King of Shu is joking, this is a great victory gift from me, Kezhou, to the King of Shu. In addition, when I entered Liangdi, I happened to find a four-hundred-year-old wild ginseng."
Since it is within the territory of Liangzhou, it belongs to the King of Shu, so I just did the work for you, captured this old wild ginseng, and returned it to its original owner."
"Oh, this is so embarrassing."
When Yin Hu brought the thin wooden box, Xu Mu took a look and saw that there was actually the logo of Kezhou Trading Company on the wooden box. Come to think of it, this cold land is mostly desert, and there was an old mountain ginseng with a hammer.
"Master Huang is interested."
Dealing with smart people, sometimes, is that simple.
"Oh, by the way, King Shu, I was in Cangzhou a while ago and heard some news." Huang Daochong continued to speak. This gesture of goodwill seemed to be a lot of effort.
Cangzhou locked the door. In order to find out the news, God knows how many tricks Huang Daochong used.
"Master Huang, please speak."
Huang Daochong nodded, "I heard that about ten days ago, a disguise master infiltrated Cangzhou and wanted to take Emperor Ji out of Cangzhou."
"A master of disguise?" Xu Mu and Jia Zhou looked at each other for a moment.
"Exactly, but it's a pity that it failed. Empress Su's quick-sword mute slave killed him in front of the emperor with one sword and one man. Emperor Ji ran back to the palace and was so frightened that he fell seriously ill."
"Master Huang, is Queen Su going to give birth?"
"I estimate that the baby will be born this month."
Xu Mu was not stupid enough to ask, "What should I do if I give birth to a little princess?" This kind of thing can be created. As long as it can be guaranteed that with Yuan An's bloodline, the "born" child will be a dragon, then there is no problem.
Problem.
Everyone knows that the queen's child must be of the bloodline of the Daji royal family.
"Emperor Ji Yuan An, I'm afraid he will die." Huang Daochong knocked on the table, his voice neither sad nor happy.
Xu Mu and Jia Zhou have discussed this conclusion many times. Xu Mu hopes that at this time, Yuan An can fight back and at least be a hero before he dies.
"Master Huang, which family is that master of disguise who entered the palace?" Jia Zhou, who was standing by, suddenly asked the key.
Huang Daochong shook his head, "Master Jia, I dare not hide it from you. I also tried to check, but I couldn't find out. After the big family in Cangzhou was wiped out by Queen Su, there are no royalists left, just some unworthy ones.
A righteous man cannot stir up trouble. I guess he is not from Cangzhou."
"This Queen Su, although she is a woman, is very thoughtful and thoughtful, which is really surprising."
Xu Mu agreed with this statement. Jia Zhou also said that what the Demon Queen planned would be terrible.
"Emperor Yuan An of Ji hid in the palace and wrote bloody edicts every day. But it was basically impossible to spread the word. Those eunuchs Gong'e were already Queen Su's people." Huang Daochong said.
"After being gradually ignored, the lonely Emperor Ji no longer had any capital to fight."
Xu Mu frowned and could even imagine that Yuan An must be crying and looking mournful in the Cangzhou Palace at this time.
"Master Huang, have you ever heard of crossing the river naked?"
"Of course I've heard of it. I also sent people to investigate. It's strange to say that many young and strong refugees did not surrender to the army in Chuzhou, but went directly up the river to fish for scraps of gold. It is strange.
Disappeared around Cangzhou."
Really hammered.
Xu Mu sighed. As expected, Queen Su was dispatching troops to Cangzhou. However, where the hole for the troop deployment was made remains to be investigated.
"Master Huang, I am in Liangzhou now, so it is very inconvenient——"
"Don't worry, King Shu, I will help investigate this matter." Huang Daochong immediately expressed his position.
He is indeed a smart man.
Lao Huang gave him enough face, and Xu Mu stopped being pretentious and reciprocated kindness, whether it was good for you or me. At least, he had to stabilize Lao Huang's mind.
"Oh, by the way, Master Huang, I'm very happy to say something about your son. In my general hall in Shuzhou, several veteran generals who taught him said that he is quite talented. I have an unmerciful request."
"King Shu, please speak."
"Your Majesty, Huang Zhizhou, can he join the camp of our general in Western Shu? If so, he will definitely be a rare general who can be of great use."
Of course, after all, no matter what, Huang Zhizhou will stay in front of the main camp and be a little captain who obeys orders until he is fully trusted.
"King of Shu, Xu, Brother Xu, this is a great kindness. A certain Huang Daochong, thank you King of Shu."
"That's right. Even though the terrain in Liangzhou is barren, the Huang family master can pull out an old ginseng. It can be seen that the friendship between me, Xishu and Kezhou is a match made in heaven."
Huang Daochong's face was not red, his heart was not beating, "King Shu, I have a girl under my knees, she is twenty-eight years old, why not——"
"Master Huang, the tea soup is getting cold."
"Oh yes, drink tea first, drink tea."
The atmosphere in the palace is very happy. Stupid behavior often does not happen between smart people.
