Chapter 18: Wind and Rain (18)

In hindsight, no matter how you analyze it, the military action launched by Zhao Guang, the Right Houwei General of the Wei Dynasty, into Xuzhou City in the early morning of April 22nd had no chance of winning.

The reason is very simple. It doesn't matter whether Zhao Guang and his party raised the banner of King Qi or shouted slogans targeting only the Sima brothers, because everyone knows that Zhao Guang just wants to repay the kindness of the late emperor Cao Che.

, just because he was dissatisfied with the Sima family's oppression of the Wei royal family, this hero who was ranked third on the short-lived list wanted to carry out a reaction against the Jiangdu military coup... From this perspective, Zhao Guang was no different from the general.

He threw himself on the opposite side of the entire Jiangdu military coup subject.

So who was the subject of the Jiangdu military coup?

The answer is the entire Custodes! Everyone who wants to go home!

Zhao Xingmi played the role of the early mastermind in the previous military coup in Jiangdu. He said that if you want to achieve a military coup, you don't have to kill too many of your friends, but you must kill a few of your enemies.

...and Zhao Guang made a big mistake on this most critical issue from the beginning.

With just a thousand of his men, plus Qian Ying, Mai Jicai only had a few hundred people. Even though he made a prompt decision and used a double strategy to attack the east and west, he was essentially relying on Qian Ying, his old brother, to make the pills invisible to others.

It was just a combination of poor information and his own cultivation that led to an assassination attempt.

Therefore, when the new Prime Minister Sima Huada was alert in advance, left the general manager's office, and went directly to the other troops, it was entirely possible for Emperor Bai to say afterwards that Zhao Guang's action had failed; and when Qian Ying arrived

After the General Manager found that he was unable to hit the target with one blow, even from the perspective of the parties involved on Zhao Guang's side, the operation had failed.

However, those who witnessed Zhao Guang's final performance in Xuzhou City that morning probably would not think so.

"What's up with him?"

In Xuzhou City, where it started to rain again, Sima Huada, who was standing on the street, was a little confused... He had just learned that the general manager's office was defeated by Zhao Guang's Rangers. Knowing that the overall situation was determined, he used this as an excuse to easily mobilize Sima De.

Ke and others sent troops to surround and kill Zhao Guang and others... As soon as they arrived at the street with the main force, before they could stand still, they saw a golden roc rising into the sky, and they couldn't help but be shocked.

This is a "real" roc bird, with golden light all over its body. The true energy escapes from both sides of the shoulders for more than ten feet, like a pair of golden wings. In its hand is a three-pointed and two-edged Qimen spear with barbs.

, looking from a distance, it looks like the sharp claws of a roc reaching out to grab its prey.

However, the response to Prime Minister Sima was just a few heavy gasps, a burst of laughter that almost came from far away, and of course, different colors of infuriating light that instantly lit up in front of and behind him, and a golden light from top to bottom in front of him.

huge figure!

Astonishingly, it was the Moyun Golden-winged Dapeng that had just taken flight.

The golden light of the Dapeng was shining, and it came straight towards him. Sima Huada was surrounded by seven or eight elixir-forming and elixir-condensing masters. He only felt a flash of golden light in front of him, and then there was a loud noise, followed by a burst of energy.

The strong wind swept everything around, and the broken bricks, rubble, branches, leaves, and rain all flew up. It was like a hurricane or an earthquake.

"The pill is broken!" After the other party failed to hit him and walked away, Sima Huada, who was well-informed after all, reacted immediately, and then wiped the blood sprayed by someone on his face and muttered to himself. "He came to see me.

So, knowing that this time the attack was in vain, he actually broke the pill? A person cannot break the pill unless he is extremely angry, but he actually broke the pill?"

The faces of the people around him, starting from Zuopu Shesima Deke and down, looked uglier than the last.

"Why bother? Why bother?" Sima Huada, whose helmet was knocked crooked, was speechless and asked the people around him. "It's okay to run away. We will let him live. Why should we sacrifice our lives for a fool like Cao Che?"

? Or is it that once you become the emperor, you are so powerful that you will make people willing to fight for him? "

The people around him held their breath and concentrated on defense, and no one paid any attention to him.

The next moment, the roc bird flew again, and this time, the prepared masters exerted their strength at the same time under the unified command of Smadek. The true energy flowed and took shape impressively, forming a formation with the glow of true energy as the background.

The small military formation was like a small sun rising out of thin air on the ground. Linghu Xing waved his saber and took advantage of the military formation's breath to leap up several feet and attack Zhao Guang with all his strength.

When the two collided, there was a huge gap in strength. The golden roc bird in the air seemed to have had half of its wings cut off, and it dimmed instantly, while the remaining main part flew out at the same time and landed on the street, almost destroying half of it.

The brick building was smashed.

But that's all. In almost an instant, a roc bird with wings and feet flew out again covered in golden light. It no longer clung to the Zhenqi Army Formation, but instead pounced on the other Forbidden Army units that were surrounding them.

.

Wherever it went, it was really like an eagle attacking a rabbit, and it was almost smashed to pieces. What's more, it was directly rolled up by the three-pointed two-edged hook gun's dancing energy, lifted into the air and then dropped... This kind of

The killing method was actually more efficient when the surrounding sergeants were generally wearing armor, not to mention the chaos and panic caused by these people's begging in the air and wailing after landing, which made Zhao Guang take action more calmly.

Seeing his subordinates being slaughtered in this way, three Ningdan generals immediately left the formation and jumped up to stop the attack. They were shocked to find that this Zhao Guang was indeed a roc bird second only to Dragon and Phoenix among the heroes of the year. He was extremely fast.

After breaking the pill, he became even more unscrupulous. He was laughing wildly and killing people, but he couldn't stop him at all. There were even pill-condensing masters who were not strong enough and were knocked down and injured by him several times.

"It won't be a problem if this goes on!" During the chaotic battle, Sima Jinda, whose hair had become disheveled at some point, was once again slapped from the air. After landing, there was a bloody gash on his face. Knowing that this could not be done, he simply became embarrassed.

After breaking away from the battle group and coming to his brother, he was stunned when he saw the slight golden light on his shoulders. Then he suppressed many chaotic thoughts in his heart and tried his best to speak. "Brother, we can't wait for him to run out of energy.

How many people would die like that?"

"Then what should we do? I don't have the Fulong Seal!" Sima Huada was speechless and still spread his hands.

"The Seventh General means to ask for reinforcements!" Zhao Xingmi shouted from behind. "Either call a few more Chengdan masters to come and trap him with nets on all sides, or ask Duke Niu to take action!"

Sima Huada woke up, but quickly had an idea: "Invite them all! Send the following officers to invite other soldiers outside the city, and tell them that Zhao Guang wants to avenge Cao Che, and now he has gone crazy and wants to return to the west.

Everyone, come here! Then, Lao Qi, go to Cangcheng in person and ask Duke Niu to come! Explain your interests and tell him, if he doesn’t come, I will tell the imperial army that all the servants are colluding with Zhao Guang to prevent everyone from returning to the east capital.

!”

When Sima Jinda heard this, regardless of the fact that he had been disfigured, he did not stop for a moment, directly greeted his subordinates, and divided his own troops into two groups, heading outside the city and Cangcheng respectively.

Not to mention the road outside the city, when the right servant Sima Jinda arrived at Cangcheng, Mai Jicai was already trapped in a narrow gap in the wall outside Cangcheng by Yuan Li who was ambushing him here.

Tomoshiro Wanghou himself wore iron armor and a red cloak, held a knife and led the crowd from Cangcheng to attack.

But Sima Jinda ignored him at all, and jumped through the air with his hair disheveled, holding a sword, and then shouted from the air: "Niu Du Gong! Where is Niu Du Gong? Now the army is saying that you colluded with Zhao Guang, and the intention was

To prevent the entire army from returning to the Eastern Capital, yes or no?!"

After asking this question for the second time, Sima Jinda suddenly felt his feet sink when he was about to land on the roof. He fell from the roof and was dragged into another room with the bricks, tiles and wood.

When he got up in embarrassment, he saw Duke Niu looking at him coldly, and behind him were dozens of servants standing with sticks.

Sima Jinda did not feel timid at all after being subjected to the Grand Master's tactics. Instead, he straightened up his sword and scolded: "Mr. Niu, it's all because of you that things have reached this point today! Everyone wanted to return home, but as the only Grand Master, why did you do it instead?

Taking the lead in causing chaos?!"

"We had an agreement beforehand. Even though we were traveling together, I was only responsible for the safety of the palace and would not interfere with each other. However, you brought chaos into this place. I haven't even asked for the crime. How can you accuse me of causing chaos?" Ushikawa asked coldly.

"The country is in chaos, and we are all wandering outside. There are traitors inside and powerful enemies outside. As the sole master of the Central Committee, if you don't help the Prime Minister maintain people's hearts, it is equivalent to causing chaos!" Sima Jinda kept yelling loudly. "Today's matter,

You think you are disturbed, but we have to deal with the rebels and be wary of you at the same time... How can we treat you as one of our own by doing this?"

Duke Niu didn't panic at all: "Don't insist on making false threats. You just said, are you going to break the contract?"

"What a fart, you broke the contract!" Sima Jinda's eyes were red, as if he had lost his composure. "For you alone, we have repeatedly made compromises, wasting our efforts, but you are always ambiguous! Ushikawa, you must make it clear today, what do you want from us?

, or from Zhao Guang and those thieves?"

"What if I follow you? What if I follow Zhao Guang?" Niu Dugong finally became angry. The immortal energy condensed out of thin air in the room, like a blue python as thick as a bowl, and then it automatically circled around in the air.

The opponent circled.

Sima Jinda Lin was so powerful that he always stood up with his sword without fear: "If you follow us, you must obey the Prime Minister's order and kill Zhao Guang immediately! This guy is now breaking the pill and killing his brothers in the army and the people in the city without restraint. He can't wait for a moment."

! And if you want to die with him, we will kill Zhao Guang and then kill you! Fighting for the lives of several generals and hundreds of soldiers, exhausting your true energy, will always make it impossible for you to gain a foothold!"

Ushikawa was already laughing in anger when he heard it, because he already knew what the other party was planning.

Besides, Zhao Guang has already shattered the pill, does he still have a choice? Now to help a man who is about to die? In other words, everyone is in the same boat, does he want to sit back and watch a lunatic who breaks the pill wantonly slaughter the sergeants?

But if we try to stop Zhao Guang in this way, it is equivalent to following Sima's theory.

However, this does not seem to be Sima Jinda's method, but Sima Huada's style... Sima Jinda looked like this. It was obvious that he had been beaten, suffered a loss, and was angry in his heart. Only then did he treat himself, who could have prevented him from suffering a loss.

People showed a fierce attitude.

After thinking this, Ushikawa calmed down.

To be fair, Duke Niu is not a man who is good at politics, nor is he a man who has a strong desire for power. Otherwise, with his unique cultivation among the chamberlains, even if he travels with the imperial chariot on a daily basis, it would be easy to control the interior of Beiya.

How could Gao Jiang, Wang Zhuo, Yu Wei and other father-in-laws decentralize power one by one and even take over Beiya?

But this does not mean that Duke Niu is a person who knows nothing about this... He just knows nothing about it. After experiencing so many people and so many things, he should have learned a lot... This kind of person at least knows what it means to recognize the situation clearly.

Otherwise, where would it be that the people in Jiangdu City were wise enough to protect themselves?

The current situation is that the Forbidden Army is still leading the entire migration team, and it is the Sima brothers who have the absolute political advantage among the Forbidden Army. As for Zhao Guang, the idea of ​​this roc trying to avenge the emperor is ridiculous...

If others don't know, doesn't he, Ushikawa, know? When it comes to revenge, countless people in this world would hate the emperor for dying so easily.

Not to mention, Zhao Guang has already broken the pill, so why let him continue to suffer and commit murder at the same time?

"I'll go with you." Niu Dugong suddenly smiled, and the big blue python disappeared.

Sima Jinda was stunned. The sword in his hand also lost its vitality, and he became a little panicked.

"But I am not going with you to bow down to your eldest brother... If you arrive in Dongdu safely and meet Sima Erlang, it may not be necessary to bow to the Sima family. As for your eldest brother, he served as the late emperor's bodyguard in his early years. We have been for decades

We know each other, but we don't know that he only knows how to sniff up and down, fight for power and gain, but there is nothing honest about it. Sima Qilang, say it yourself, how can such a person achieve great things?" Ushikawa spoke sincerely. "Today.

The reason for this trip is that Zhao Guang Sui Dan begged for death and did not want him to hurt innocent people."

When Sima Jinda heard this, he was a little embarrassed: "It's the boy Meng Lang today."

Ushikawa shook his head: "How can I talk about a brat?"

With that said, he rolled up the other party and flew to the roof. When he came outside, Niu He pointed towards the battlefield outside the gate of Cang City. Just as he was about to ask, Sima Jinda suddenly asked in a low voice: "Master Niu, my eldest brother's mansion."

What happened to that concubine?"

Duke Niu was also obviously stunned, and then shook his head in a low voice: "I don't know... I'm afraid I have to ask Yuan Lizheng about this. Before yesterday, I led all the servants on the river outside the city, and did not meet with Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, or the Queen Mother.

In the harem, all civil and military officials are in one place."

Sima Jinda nodded, shook his head again, and gave a direct answer to the question that the other party did not ask: "Don't worry about this, Mai Ji is a mediocre person, just leave me here, as long as the governor takes action to deal with a golden-winged roc !”

Duke Niu nodded, and the next moment he disappeared directly on the roof of Cangcheng, while Sima Jinda stayed there in the drizzle. He was confused for a moment, but when he came back to his senses later, he was not in a hurry to join the battle, but simply inserted his long sword into it. On the eaves, then he sat on the tiles, staring at the battlefield and tying up his messy hair.

Here in Cangcheng, Sima Jinda took a breather. In the middle of Xuzhou City, Sima Huada had been forced to a certain extent because the reinforcements from outside had not yet arrived, but the roc bird got help when he was at his craziest - - His sworn brother Qian Ying, after evacuating the General Manager's Mansion from the alley, and knowing that his brother had broken the elixir, he chose to turn back without hesitation and led the crowd from the north side of Central Street to come to the rescue!

Let us also say that the reason why Qian Ying was regarded as a trump card was precisely because he was one of the few people who could condense the essence during the years of hardship in Jiangdu, but because of the situation at that time, he deliberately concealed it.

Therefore, when this person suddenly came to kill him, everyone did not take it seriously. Only Ning Danlang, who was knocked away by Zhao Guang before, came to greet him.

As a result, Qian Ying used his Lihuo Zhenqi and came waving a long knife. From a distance, it looked like he was waving a torch, but it still made the general look very solemn as he approached. , Li Huo's true energy suddenly bloomed, as if a fire cloud as wide as a street ignited in the sky. At the same time, he jumped into the air and slashed out of the true energy, as if flying out of a ball of fire. The man was so horrified that he instinctively rolled up all the weak water energy in his body to resist amidst the exclamations in front and behind him!

Li Huo vs. Weak Shui, the former looks great, but due to the mutual restraint and cultivation of both sides, it is actually just a close fight.

It was just a pain to the soldiers around him, and what he got from the fire was only external injuries. But the one who was directly hit by the two waves of true energy only felt severe pain all over his body, and he lost the ability to move. He could only roll on the ground in embarrassment and howl. .

And just when Ying Yanglang felt that he had escaped, his back suddenly felt a sharp pain, and then his whole body was torn apart by something and flew into the air!

Sima Huada and others were dumbfounded. They witnessed with their own eyes that General Ningdan Lang was attacked by Zhao Guang when the surrounding military formations were fully reinforced. He used the three-pointed two blades to tear half of his back open in mid-air, and then But it was smashed in the air!

For a time, blood and water mixed with rain and fell one after another.

And that Ningdan Lang was at the level of Ningdan, and he ended up like this just because he was attacked by a surprise attack. His Dantian was not damaged, and his body-protecting Qi was activated according to instinct and instead protected his vital internal organs. After he was hit, he was still wailing!

This was a high-ranking member of the Forbidden Army who had entered the palace seriously. To meet this end in such a battle that was destined to end, almost everyone among the other high-ranking members of the Forbidden Army present died.

When Sima Deke saw this, his eyes were about to burst, and he personally charged out with his sword, trying to stop Zhao Guang, the lunatic, before waiting for reinforcements.

As soon as Sima Deke came out, the military formation was immediately ineffective. Zhao Xingmi was greatly frightened. He called out to the remaining generals who wanted to follow him and hurriedly rebuilt the Zhenqi military formation using his own home as a base.

But this is what Zhao Guang has been waiting for!

Qian Ying, who had a tacit understanding in his heart, regardless of everything, broke away from the army and jumped up, directly facing the veteran Chengdan Simadek.

Zhao Guang's golden-winged roc whistled in the air and flew towards Sima Huada without hesitation... Linghu Xing, who was in front of him, gritted his teeth and waved his sword to meet him, but was struck directly from the air as if he was flapping his wings.

Use his true energy to blow it away... Seeing this shape, Sima Huada did not hesitate, turned around and tried to escape with all his true energy.

But how could his speed be compared to that of the Moyun Golden-winged Dapeng? In just a moment, Sima Huada, who had just been prime minister for a day, heard the sound of wind behind him, and felt that the blood in his body ran cold.

However, that was it. He landed in a panic and looked back. He was surprised to find that the roc suddenly hovered sideways on the eaves of a roof.

Of course, this was because he had emptied his body due to drinking and sex, and his cultivation was weak, so he could not see clearly. Zhao Xingmi and others could see clearly that it was a sudden appearance of immortality energy entangled on the eaves of the house where Zhao Guang borrowed his strength.

He took off one of the roc's feet.

"Niu He!" Zhao Guang's eyes were red, and he brandished a three-pointed two-edged hook gun. His previously indestructible Qi swept onto the eaves, but it was as if it had swept gold and iron. Then he shouted almost wailing. "It's okay if you don't help me.

How can you help Sima Huada? Don’t you know that he wants to give His Majesty and the Empress Dowager to thieves?"

The surrounding air seemed to freeze for a moment, but this was just an illusion... Most of the injured soldiers were still wailing, everyone was breathing heavily, and the light rain was still falling. However, from the perspective of the master's Qi movement,

This moment does maintain a certain static.

But it only took a moment before Sima Huada reacted and roared on the spot: "Master Niu, today's matter is just a matter of me and him! What are you still worried about?!"

It seemed that these words clarified the situation and truly acted as a threat. The next moment, the longevity energy wrapped around Zhao Guang's left foot suddenly surged rapidly. Within a few breaths, it grew into a python as thick as a bowl, and

The python also quickly swam around the golden-winged roc. When the Qi of both parties met, it was difficult to say that the Qi of Immortality directly suppressed it, but it didn't have to be this way, because Zhao Guang's Glow Qi could not cut it either.

The immortal energy of Lord Niu was destroyed, but the python that the latter transformed into kept wandering around, completely binding Zhao Guang almost instantly.

The latter's true energy continued to release from the former's true energy, but gradually he could no longer even make a sound.

The generals below, including many sergeants, were stunned.

What woke everyone up was a ball of fire flying towards Zhao Guang, but Sima Deke and Zhao Xingmi flew out together, and fell to the ground in the air. Then Qian Ying's left limbs were numb, with more and more wounds, heavy limbs, and lust.

There is no way to go.

However, most people's attention is still on the "dumpling" that is still shining through the green strips, and on the Cow Lord appearing on the roof next to it.

Linghu Xing spat out blood and turned to Sima Huada who was being helped up. He smiled bitterly and asked an interesting question: "Prime Minister, you have been friends with Duke Niu for a long time. Can you tell us what he visualized?"

Is it a dragon, a snake or a rope?"

"Rope!" Sima Huada glanced at the man who saved his life today and spoke concisely.

Linghu Xing just nodded.

With Zhao Guang being restrained, the turmoil has actually subsided, but it still takes time to wait for his death, otherwise no one can feel relieved.

Not to mention, Prime Minister Sima wanted to use this scene to further establish his political status, so he issued a military order on the spot: all those who caused trouble were to be killed on the spot without surrender.

Then, he waited quietly on the spot, just to see when the generals from outside the city would arrive, and then how would they feel about this scene?

However, a moment later, the first reinforcements to arrive were somewhat beyond his expectation.

"Prime Minister!" Wang Hou, who was short in stature but wearing a big red cloak, ignored Zhao Guang's old troops who were still resisting on the street and rode straight across the battlefield, not forgetting to shout loudly from a distance. "Where is the Prime Minister?"

With that said, he came to the somewhat confused Sima Huada, but he immediately turned over and dismounted, and knelt down in the rain and broken bricks: "Is the Prime Minister injured?! I heard that the thief is coming to kill you, hurry up and save him!"

But I’m really sorry, I came right after the thieves were killed in front of me, but it was a little late and I didn’t do anything to help! Please punish me, Prime Minister!”

Sima Huada opened his mouth to speak, but stopped, and then did not let the other party get up. He only asked seriously: "Where is Mai Jicai in Cangcheng?"

"I heard someone below said that the flag being held is a 'Mai', but I don't know who it is." Wang Houyi said.

"Has it been dealt with?" Sima Huada nodded and continued to ask.

"I couldn't resist our flanking attack. After General Seven stood up, the leader committed suicide. General Seven and General Yuan, who was in charge before, surrendered there. I was worried about the Prime Minister, so I came directly." Wang Hou continued to come.

Word.

"So, things are quite well." Sima Huada was finally satisfied and greeted him again. "Get up, General Wang, you have made great achievements today! Do good things in the future, I, Sima Huada, will not treat you badly!"

Wang Hou just thanked him.

"Yuan Lizheng, let me ask you a question." In Cangcheng, Sima Jinda threw his bloody head to the ground, but still turned back to face the person beside him with his sword in hand.

"You servant, please tell me about shooting." Yuan Li was surprised and nervous at the same time, and also took hold of the weapon.

"My eldest brother has a concubine of the late emperor. Do you know the whole story?"

"I know." Hearing this, Yuan Li couldn't help but relax. "When I entered Xuzhou City before, I escorted the palace into the city. The prime minister saw this person and felt attracted to him, but he didn't have any extra instructions. Yesterday, he was not going to hand over the harem for defense.

Really? The Prime Minister made special remarks and asked me to send it over... What does "Youpushe" mean? Do you think it's inappropriate?"

Sima Jinda closed his eyes for a long time and let the rain wash his face. After a while, he finally said, "Don't follow his temper, or Erlang will be angry when you get to Dongdu."

"It's not impossible, but if the Prime Minister gets angry, he will have to protect us from the right servant." Yuan Li seemed to be smiling. "We can't reach your own affairs. For now, you will still be the Prime Minister until you arrive in Dongdu."

Call the shots.”

Sima Jinda just waved his hand.

In this way, the struggle started in the early morning, and before noon, as the last breath of Qi from Zhao Guang's body escaped, the roc bird died on the spot.

As soon as Zhao Guang died, Duke Niu left directly.

Below Sima Huada, countless people stood on the dilapidated streets and watched for a long time before the prime minister spoke: "Mai Jicai is dead?"

"Yes." Sima Jinda completely regained his composure and spoke simply.

"Where's Qian Ying?"

"He's dead too." This time it was Zhao Xingmi who answered.

"Three of them hang their heads in public, and these traitors who follow them also hang their heads in public." Prime Minister Sima responded with a ferocious smile. "Wei Dun could not send a letter in time, nor could he inform Qian Ying of his cultivation. He was punished as a captain for no merits and demerits.

His department was led by Yuan Lizheng."

Zhang Qianda, Linghu Xing, Wang Hou and others all cheered, and Yuan Lizheng directly bowed down to express his gratitude.

Zhao Xingmi frowned slightly and looked at Sima Jinda, who just remained silent.

"What else?" Sima Huada asked proactively.

"General Jiang's ribs on one side of his back were all torn open, and his internal organs could not be protected for long. He only asked us not to abandon him." Sima Deke responded with a heavy breath.

"Of course we can't leave him behind and let His Majesty give up the imperial ban to accommodate General Jiang... In fact, as long as he is not a traitor, none of us can take him down." Sima Huada raised his eyebrows slightly. "As for his subordinates,

He is a subordinate of Zuo Pushe, and Zuo Pushe can lead the troops."

Sima Deke was stunned, quickly handed over his hand, and bowed in public: "I thank the Prime Minister for Xiao Jiang."

"Who has anything else?" Sima Huada saw that his authority had finally been established, and he was a little embarrassed. He seemed to be anxious to go back to drink. "If not, let's disperse. Let's continue packing, or we should set off as usual the day after tomorrow! Everything is going right now.

It's all right, just guard against the army of thieves, and you can return home easily!"

No matter what the many people present thought, upon hearing this, they all cheered up and cheered together.

Immediately, Prime Minister Sima went back to the somewhat messy General Manager's Mansion to have a banquet with a crowd of people shouting at him, leaving only his seventh brother, Sima Deke, Zhao Xingmi and others to deal with the aftermath.

As soon as they left, Sima Deke also went to see the young General Jiang. In the drizzle, Zhao Xingmi came first to look for Sima Jinda: "When will your eldest brother condense the elixir?"

"I don't know either." Sima Jinda seemed to be equally concerned about this issue. "If he was like before and has been lazy all these years, that's fine. I'm just afraid that he has always been lazy and hasn't condensed the pill, so he killed Cao Che.

After becoming the prime minister and assuming power, he suddenly became excited and condensed his elixir... In this case, I am afraid he will become even more unscrupulous, and I will not be able to persuade him."

"It's good if you know this." Zhao Xingmi was helpless. "It's good if you know."

The two of them were speechless immediately... There were some words that they couldn't say. What they were most afraid of now was that one Cao Che would go and another Cao Che would come.

Zhao Xingmi was okay, he just had to leave quickly and finish the journey. Sima Jinda was even more powerless, because he had to face the internal disputes within the Sima family after arriving in the eastern capital, so he was deeply dissatisfied with Sima Huada's situation after he took power.

Be extremely vigilant about inappropriate behavior.

But both of them had a sense of powerlessness, because it was too easy for Sima Huada to suppress them politically, not to mention that Prime Minister Sima had just said that they could leave tomorrow. In this case, they had no energy at all.

Stop thinking too much.

In this way, on April 24th, after receiving the message, the three armies of the Forbidden Army launched together as agreed. Among them, Tu Wan Chang Lun continued to march along the Huai River on the west side, while the main force left the city of Xuzhou and pursued Tu in the southwest.

The backs of all the troops also marched along the Huai River. As for the fish, they officially began to cross the Huai River.

This march route was promoted by Sima Jinda and Zhao Xingmi. Essentially, it was to avoid marching from the hinterland of the Gang and go against the Huai River towards Huaixi, in order to enter the safe zone and avoid a big war.

Sima Huada also chose to approve it after the two insisted.

So far, it seems that as Prime Minister Sima said in Xuzhou City that day, the internal troubles have been eliminated, and as long as the outside world is vigilant to prevent a war from happening, they can calmly return to the Eastern Capital and start their business again.

However, on the day the army was launched, not even the soldiers and horses in the city had completely left the city. Sima Deke, who was inspecting various ministries, discovered a strange thing, that is, there was actually a missing general Ying Yanglang. After asking for a moment, he found out that

Quickly find out - it turns out that Bai Youbin, the general of Yingyang Lang, left with only fifteen cavalry on the night when Zhao Guang's subordinates were executed. His subordinates were too concerned about the kindness of his father and son, and pretended not to know, and deceived him for a day.

this.

Calculating the time, if you go to join the bandits, you may have already seen Zhang Xing.

PS: Thank you Mr. ibird for being a member of the alliance! Thank you very much!

Among all kinds of incidents, I actually put together a chapter in the time after dinner, and I will publish it in 2023. I also wish everyone a happy new year, all the best, and everyone will make a fortune!

Then I continued to ask for leave, and I haven’t done anything serious yet.
