During the war in Cangzhou, both sides seemed to have a tacit understanding, and each slowly stopped fighting. Of course, this does not mean that there will be no need to fight in the future.
Xu Mu knew very well that with Zuo Shiren's temperament, he would definitely counterattack. And the Demon Queen would still use their own hidden tricks to continue the sinister plan.
The letter to Zuo Shiren stated that the navies of both sides were preparing for war at the Kezhou dock. Zuo Shiren quickly replied and as expected, he agreed directly and his words were extremely sincere.
"My lord, the head of the Huang family is here."
Among those who breathed a sigh of relief just after the war was over was Huang Daochong of Kezhou. If possible, this well-rounded little family leader hoped that the world would not have to fight and would be unified immediately.
"Huang Daochong pays homage to the King of Shu." Huang Daochong stepped onto the boat and bowed hurriedly.
"Master Huang, no courtesy." Xu Mu smiled.
"Thank you, King Shu."
After taking his seat, Huang Daochong had a serious face and sat upright. He knew that Xu Mu came to him this time because he must have something to discuss, and it was very likely that it was related to the war.
"Don't be surprised, Master Huang. The matter is urgent this time, so we urgently summoned Master Huang." Xu Mu sighed, "In the battle to attack Cangzhou, our Dongling Alliance tried our best, but still couldn't capture Cangzhou."
"The Demon Queen's plan is cunning, the King of Shu does not need to blame himself."
Xu Mu smiled and said, "I came to the Huang Family Master to ask... Does the Huang Family Master know how the Demon Queen's troops entered Cangzhou?"
"It should be the matter of fishing for gold scraps before."
"No, there are at least 30,000 soldiers. I suspect that the Demon Queen has more tricks that are unknown to others."
"Then I don't know. The King of Shu knows that my relationship with Cangzhou is not that good. In the past, when I was trying to manage things, I was rejected by the Demon Queen many times."
Huang Daochong said it very seriously, but somehow, Xu Mu always felt that there was something hidden in Huang Daochong's words.
After hesitating for a while, he didn't get too entangled in this issue. Lao Huang had his own concerns and he was aggressive. It would be bad if the relationship became tense.
"Let's not talk about this for now. By the way, Mr. Huang, have you ever heard of Uncle Wang?"
"Uncle Wang? Could it be King Yan's new staff? Of course I have heard of it. Recently, he has a very good reputation in Hebei. I heard that even the King of Yuzhou has suffered a lot of losses. King Shu
, I do know some information about this person."
"Master Huang, please speak."
Huang Daochong calmed his tone and said, "This uncle Wang was originally an old copyist in Yanzhou. For some reason, he was suddenly promoted and promoted by Gongsunzu and made an unusual staff member. When the King of Yuzhou attacked Yizhou, he
It was he who used the ingenious trick of hiding a fire in an empty city and a huge fire to destroy Yuzhou Heijia's consecutive victories."
Xu Mu frowned, "What happened next?"
"Later, the king of Yuzhou also used many methods, including one time when he sent a secret army from the northeast of Yizhou and almost attacked it. It was this uncle Wang who used a cunning plan to ambush in three directions and defeated Yuzhou.
The state’s dark scheme.”
"Master Huang, how old are you?"
"I heard that he must be more than sixty years old. I have never heard of such a person before. It seems like... he appeared out of nowhere. Moreover, since he appeared, he has also helped the prince of Yanzhou, Sun Zu.
A support force was invited."
"Where are the reinforcements?"
Huang Daochong shook his head, "We haven't found out yet. I estimate that King Yuzhou's attack on Hebei will also take a long time."
"Master Huang, have you found out anything about the four slaves in the world?"
Huang Daochong shook his head, "I only know two of them, one is the mute slave Kuai Jian, and the other is Tang Wuyuan... By the way, talking about Tang Wuyuan in Qingzhou, there was an incident recently. Does the King of Shu know that Tang Wuyuan just brought the remnant army?
When we got ashore and were about to return to Qingzhou, Yuan Song immediately sent people to block it."
Xu Mu was a little funny. He did this all by himself.
"Is it blocked?"
"It was blocked. Yuan Song killed half of the remnant army of several thousand men and horses. In the end, Tang Wuyuan only took more than 2,000 people and ran back to Qingzhou in dejection. It is impossible to say that Yuan Song will wait until the time is right.
If we have the opportunity, we must attack Qingzhou immediately."
"This Tang Wuyuan claims to be the sixth best strategist in the world, even more powerful than Mr. Dongfang. This time, he has suffered a lot."
"The fun is yet to come." Xu Mu sneered. To be honest, someone like Tang Wuyuan really made him feel a little nauseous.
Huang Daochong laughed a few times, and after a few times, his words became a little nervous.
"King Shu, I have no problem with building a dock on the bank of the Kezhou River... but I hope that the dock can be built on the west bank of Kezhou... at a small ferry farther away."
"Of course." Xu Mu did not object. Huang Dao acted like this just to preserve the family. According to the current situation, the winner between Cangzhou and the Dongling Alliance is still undecided. At first glance, Cangzhou seems to be still
Gained some upper hand.
Xishu and Dongling jointly dispatched navy troops to garrison in Kezhou on the other side of Cangzhou. The pressure on Lao Huang must not be small.
"Thank you, King Shu." Huang Daochong breathed a sigh of relief.
"King Shu, how about this? Give me another month and I will think of some ways to find out what happened to the four slaves in the world."
Look, this is Lao Huang's personality charm, reciprocating love in return.
"Then thank you very much, Master Huang."
Only after Huang Daochong got off the boat and left, Dongfang Jing, who was sitting aside, frowned and spoke.
"Lord, have you discovered something?"
Xu Mu was startled, "What do you mean by Bo Lie's words?"
"There are thirty states in the world, as if there are hands stirring up the world."
The words were very direct. After Xu Mu thought about it carefully, his face became a little gloomy.
"It's like there are many more killing pieces on this side of the chessboard."
Such as Tang Wuyuan, such as the old Yanzhou staff member... Before this, these people had never appeared. Now, it is better, but they all came out like a pot.
"Cangzhou secretly increased its troops, and Yanzhou also suddenly increased its troops. Who can say for sure whether there is some relationship between them?"
"The death situation for the King of Yanzhou and the death situation for the Hebei League were suddenly revived. Therefore, the King of Yuzhou was firmly dragged into Hebei. The King of Yuzhou is now in a dilemma. If he retreats to the inner city, the Hebei Second Army that he originally captured will be
The state will be handed over to others."
Dongfang Jing's words suddenly gave Xu Mu a flash of inspiration. Unfortunately, no matter how much he thought about it, he could not understand these two strange things.
"My lord, I still have the same suggestion as before. The best way to break the current situation is for the lord to take the lead and form a big alliance. It only requires a few towns of princes and men, and great things can be expected."
Xu Mu nodded.
But this kind of world alliance does not mean that if you say it, others will agree. Among them, an opportunity is needed to promote this kind of alliance.
