There was a burst of cheers from both sides of the river and the river, and the sound of "Long Live" resounded throughout the world. On one side of the river bank, in a small forest, a man in black robe stood with his arms folded, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Well done."
He turned to look at Mingyue, who was standing aside with her hands lowered and respectfully saying: "Don't let me down this time."
Mingyue bowed and saluted, brushed a trace of her flowing hair in front of her forehead, and said with a smile: "Senior, don't worry, I once practiced in Shu and am very familiar with it. I dare not say anything else. Chengdu is mine."
It's much easier to take action on half of my natal family's territory here than in Jiangling."
Heipao said coldly: "Last time in Jiangling, the order I gave you was to take the opportunity to kill Huan Xuan, but in the end you still let him run away. Was it because you lacked the ability, or did you listen to your lord's order and deliberately not
Follow my instructions?"
Mingyue's face changed slightly, and she knelt down on one knee and saluted: "Senior, this junior is controlled by others and has two orders. It is really difficult. Now that my identity is under the lord's banner, I can only..."
A hint of murderous intent flashed in the black robe's eyes: "You know that your lord can kill you, so why can't I take your life? Mingyue, I raised you in vain and taught you martial arts. This is how you repay me."
Of?"
Mingyue was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe, she just knelt on the ground like this. Hei Pao's expression softened slightly and said in a deep voice: "That's all, your lord and I have made an agreement now that we will no longer give direct orders to you and Yuan Ming.
This time you came to assist me on your lord's order. The order he gave you was to completely obey my dispatch and there were no other instructions?"
Mingyue said sternly: "Yes, this time my lord wants me to obey all your orders, even if you ask me to kill myself with a horizontal sword, I will do it without hesitation."
Heipao nodded: "That's because this time he has the same goal as me here, which is to destroy the Mao family, make Qiao Zong independent, and separate Yizhou, Liangzhou and Ningzhou from the western part of Jin
.Act according to this plan. Once you receive the signal that Mao Jin's entire army is defeated, mobilize your people lurking in the Chengdu camp, cut off the city, and let the rebels enter the city. Otherwise, even if the first two armies are defeated, Mao Can still be in Chengdu.
There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and Yingcheng is firmly defended. If Qiao Zong cannot attack for a long time, the troops will slowly disperse, and in the end the victory will be defeated."
Mingyue saluted and promised, and turned to leave. Suddenly, she thought of something and turned around and said, "But, don't I need to take action with Mao Jin? Can Qiao control these rabble and really defeat the elite Liangzhou soldiers and horses?"
A cold and stern look flashed in the black robe's eyes: "I have personally taken charge of this journey. Everything has been arranged properly. You just need to do your best in Chengdu."
Mingyue quickly saluted and said yes, then turned around and disappeared into the shadows of the trees outside the forest. A gust of wind blew by, and the black robe disappeared. Only the birds and magpies were still singing in the sky above the forest.
Jiangling City, Governor's Mansion, above the main hall.
Sima Dezong put on a brand-new dragon robe, but he was still lying weakly on the dragon couch, with a long saliva hanging from the corner of his mouth, so that he was standing in front of the couch, gesticulating and shouting loudly.
Sima Dewen drank so much that he would turn around from time to time to wipe off the saliva for him to maintain the image of the emperor of the Jin Dynasty.
However, what is more important than wiping the idiot emperor's saliva is obviously to express his inner anger and anxiety about state affairs. This is also the theme of Sima Dewen, Prince Langya's speech now. His voice is like a strong wind,
It echoed in the hall and went straight to the civil and military officials sitting on the couches on both sides of the hall: "Everyone, you must have seen this report, the great changes in Yizhou, the governor Mao Chu, the captain of Xiyi Mao Jin, the Shu
The prefect of the county, Mao Yuan, and hundreds of nephews and nephews of the Mao family all died at the hands of the traitors Qiaozong, Hou Hui, and Yangmei. Now, west of Baidi City, the entire Yizhou has fallen.
What's even more abominable is that this Qiao Zong actually established himself as the King of Chengdu and named the country Xishu. Doesn't he know how Huan Xuan died?"
Sima Xiuzhi, who was first on the left, said quickly: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Qiao's conspiracy to rebel is an act against heaven and will be punished by heaven. However, the soldiers in Shu are weak and can be easily solved. The Mao family is careless this time."
After losing Yizhou, they were raided by Qiao Zong at night, and a traitor camp opened the gates of Chengdu. Only then did they fall into the hands of the thieves. All they needed to do was send a partial army, and within ten months, these thieves could be defeated.
Eliminate it."
Sima Dewen's gaze turned from Sima Xiuzhi to Liu Yi, who was sitting first on the right and wearing a military uniform: "Liu Guanjun, what are your opinions on this? Do you agree with His Highness Prince Qiao's proposal?"
Liu Yi said calmly: "It is abominable for Qiao to conspire to rebel, but I believe that the rebellion in Bashu is just a scabies disease and of no consequence. At present, we have more important things to do."
Sima Dewen softly said "Oh": "Now that Jiangling has been restored, Huan Zhen and others are also running around, and it is difficult to catch them for a while. Is there anything more important than defeating Qiao Zong and the rebellious party?"
Liu Yi sighed: "The first thing I need to do is to ask your majesty and the king to return to Jiankang. Jiangling is where the traitor Huan Xuan coerced the emperor, and the palaces and inner courts of the puppet Chu who overstepped the rules were also
Demolish it. The emperor's home is in Jiankang, and the capital of the Jin Dynasty is also in Jiankang. It is not appropriate to stay here at this time."
As soon as Liu Yi said this, all the civil and military officials in the palace nodded in agreement. Sima Dewen said disapprovingly: "But now the country is in trouble, rebels are rampant everywhere, if Huan Zhen is not defeated in one day, it will be unspeakable in Jingzhou."
Pingding, Qiao Zong of Western Shu, Tianshi Daolu of Lingnan, and Xu Yao and the Thieves all took advantage of the chaos to stand up and live in the big state, occupying our country and harming our people. At this time, it was the emperor who personally went on an expedition to supervise all the people.
How can we retreat easily when the army is annihilating all rebels? Even if we return to Jiankang, we should wait until these rebels are eliminated before returning."
Liu Yi shook his head and said: "What the king said is in line with justice, but it does not conform to the law of war. Years have passed since this Western Expedition. The soldiers of Beifu, from Jianyi at Jingkou to the attack on Huan Xuan and the capture of Jiangling, have already
They have been fighting continuously for a year. The soldiers in Wu are not familiar with the customs and customs here in Jingzhou. Especially in the recent period, it is midsummer, mosquitoes and flies are rampant, and there are already signs of disease in the army. In addition, the soldiers are done.
People's hearts are at home and it is no longer suitable to continue fighting."
Sitting next to Liu Yi, He Wuji, who was also wearing armor, also held up his hands and said: "What Liu Guanjun said is absolutely true. Our army has been fighting continuously for more than a year and has become exhausted. Although the thieves in Lingnan and Xishu are not difficult to eliminate,
However, the road is far away. Now Jingzhou is in ruins and lacks military rations. Huan Zhen and others are lurking in the mountains and fields, and they may counterattack at any time. This time, it was because of their continuous fighting and expedition that Mao Zhen and others caused the morale of the army to fluctuate and gave the thieves the opportunity to incite rebellion.
If there is an opportunity, please Your Majesty and Your Majesty think twice before taking action."
