Chapter 24: Wind and Rain (24)

On the morning of May 13th, on the east bank of the Wo River, the Yingzhishi Army and the Internal Affairs Army of the gang launched together. Using the local control gained by marching across the river, they coerced Jiangdu's internal affairs, palace officials, hundreds of officials, the emperor, and the queen mother, and headed north. go.

At this time, the rain was not particularly heavy. In Shansang City on the other side of the Wohe River, Zhang Qianda, one of the senior generals of the Forbidden Army, quickly noticed something was wrong, and then quickly realized the possible situation...or that there was no need to do "possible things" "Assumption, because the army has its own logic... Two troops that had just surrendered a few days ago suddenly broke away from the formation during the march and led the emperor and the queen mother to run to the old master. That can only be regarded as rebellion!

However, Zhang Qianda stood at the top of the city and did not pursue him.

Of course there are many reasons. He is afraid of death. In this case, who knows if Lord Niu has also rebelled? What if he crosses the river to pursue him and is crushed to death?

What should we do about the emperor and the queen mother? If we die in the army, we will be the fault of both ourselves and ourselves, okay? Although the little emperor and the queen mother are not a problem, they still have to be shouldered by everyone. I can't resist it alone.

Moreover, can we beat him? The opponent has 4,000 soldiers, and we have 6,000 soldiers. We have the advantage in terms of strength, and Wang Hou on the opposite side does not seem to have a high level of cultivation. Wang Zhuo has no combat experience even if he has condensed his elixir... But the opponent There is Governor Niu, and I don’t know where Zhao Xingmi has gone... The most important thing is, what should I do if someone has support? What should I do if I encounter the army?

If you come to any battalion, or in other words, as long as you dare to pursue, but can't tell the winner in a short period of time, the opponent will definitely come with support. Then won't you become a lone army on the east bank of Guoshui?

Of course, these thoughts just flashed through his mind, because these reasons did not need to be taken into real consideration, they were just the thinking process in his mind. Zhang Qianda had more obvious and natural reasons to make his choice.

"General Zhang, do we want to give chase?" General Zhou, who was following Zhang Qianda, was a little flustered. General Ying Yang still looked at the problem according to the basic idea. "If the emperor and the queen mother don't care about this, we can Will he be prosecuted by military law?"

"Who is going to punish us?" Zhang Qianda turned around impatiently. "Does Prime Minister Sima kill people as casually as that hairy man? And he also kills the leading general?"

"That……"

"It's not that we don't chase." Zhang Qianda pointed to the crowded sergeants in front and behind the pontoon bridge and sighed. "In this situation, within an hour, can you gather the troops and re-arrange them?"

"Just force it...I guess it will take a little longer." General Zhou Lang looked back at the somewhat noisy city. The place had already become empty and even dirty due to the many experiences of the army in the past, which naturally attracted an influx of people. The soldiers in the city were dissatisfied.

"Then what?" Zhang Qianda continued to look at the other party coldly. "Then do you think you can push these people back to the other side of the Guohe River to pursue them?"

General Zhou Lang was stunned for a moment, then he realized and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "General Zhang has seen clearly, unless he tells them that the army has turned around and is going back to Xingyang from the north. There is food that does not go rancid in the north, and some troops have saved four Years of money, silk, and a place to take a hot bath... Otherwise, even if the four emperors come down to earth, it will be difficult to drive these soldiers back!"

Zhang Qianda was stunned when he heard this, but only for a moment before he said solemnly: "Now that things have happened, I have to give an explanation to Prime Minister Sima...Old Zhou, you are here to guard the city and the pontoon, and gather the troops. By the way, I'll look for General Zhao's traces, and I'll take a quick trip to see Prime Minister Sima to plead guilty."

"It can only be like this." Zhou Langjiang nodded repeatedly. "It can only be like this."

Zhang Qianda nodded, looked at the rebels who did not look back in the rain, turned around and left in a hurry, picked up a horse, and walked away almost alone.

Zhang Qianda was still a little clever. He did not go directly to see Sima Huada. Instead, he went all the way west. He stopped at every group of forbidden troops he encountered along the way, met with the corresponding leader of the forbidden troops, and explained the situation - both It explains the fact that the internal servant army and the Zhishi army rebelled and abducted the emperor and the queen mother. It also analyzes the helplessness of the army's morale and morale in being unable to effectively pursue it. At the same time, it discusses the major news that Zhao Xingmi may be the internal agent of the gang!

That’s right!

Everyone knows that the Langya thieves in the Zhishi Army are unreliable, and that Zhishi Lang, the first rebel who emerged from the Three Wars, is unreliable. That is to say, Sima Cheng is the prime minister. When he saw someone willing to flatter him so bluntly, he fainted. He bowed his head, thinking he was a loyal minister... In fact, from the marching sequence of Zhang Qianda's troops, we knew that the others were on guard against this.

It just didn't work.

The internal servant army did not follow Duke Niu to the Eastern Capital, but actually abducted Duke Niu and others. Although it was surprising at the moment, it makes some sense when you think about it carefully. After all, they are one family, so it was expected. Within reason.

However, Zhao Xingmi, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who can be regarded as a veteran in the army and the main force of this mutiny, is actually an internal collaborator of the army. This is really chilling!

"Zhao Xingmi is a traitor?!"

That night, it took a whole day for Zhang Qianda and more than ten Forbidden Army generals who had met along the way to reach the other side of Feishui River, and found the Forbidden Army coach, Brother Sima, in a small town here. After talking about the situation, Prime Minister Sima Huada was still confused, and his right servant Sima Jinda was already furious. "Zhang Qianda, do you know what you are talking about?! If you say that you have surrendered to a thief, I will believe it." !”

Zhang Qianda, who was covered in water vapor, was startled and was immediately speechless.

On the other hand, the generals who were following him were all talking at once, and two of them actually stepped forward to protect Zhang Qianda, and then refuted them without hesitation:

"What nonsense are you talking about? If General Zhang surrendered to a thief, how could he be alone in front of him?"

"On the other hand, Zhao Xingmi, although I dare not say for sure, but there is no trace in the army, and there is something about him entering the rebel camp before the rebel army rebelled, it means that if he is not an internal agent, there is a high probability that he will be held hostage!"

"That means he was kidnapped or coerced." Sima Jinda was caught off guard and quickly explained. "Where is Governor Niu's ability, what can General Zhao do? Everyone, General Zhao must be a serious general of the First Guard, and cannot speak against him easily. "

"Now that General Yiwei is nothing, the emperor and the Queen Mother have been taken over by thieves, and the Wei Dynasty is gone!"

"The rules in the military are to be suspicious in everything..."

"If we follow what you pushe means, then Chishiro is also a serious general. Is it because the emperor and the queen mother were held hostage because of his responsibilities? Mr. Niu is the chief governor of Beiya, does he count as being kidnapped? Are the chamberlains being blackmailed? Are the chamberlains being blackmailed by Wang Zhuo again? Are Wang Zhuo being blackmailed by Zhang Xing again? Aren’t they all good people and there’s nothing to worry about?!"

"Yes, there are laws in the army. As long as you leave, you are rebelling!"

"Why are you so protective of this person?"

Sima Jinda, who had just gotten up, was also a little confused. First of all, of course, it happened suddenly, and secondly, he didn't understand why these people reacted so strongly. Was it for Zhao Xingmi, for himself, or for his brother? It couldn't be because of it. Defend Zhang Qianda, right?

"This matter doesn't matter." At this moment, Prime Minister Sima Huada, who was confused at first, seemed to have come to his senses and suddenly spoke to comfort him. "Since he left, let's treat him as a traitor. If he comes back in the future, he can naturally come back." Listen to his twists and turns and see if you want a pardon... The key now is, if according to everyone's wishes, the Zhishi Army and the Internal Affairs Army behind, including General Zhao, Du Gong Niu, the Emperor, and the Queen Mother, rebel together, what should we do? Don’t chase?”

When Sima Huada asked, there was a lot of noise around him.

"We have to pursue it. Without the emperor and the queen mother, who are we?"

"We are who we are, so what do the emperor and the queen mother mean? Give it to the thief!"

"The key is that the thieves are cunning. They didn't make any move during the whole process. They deceived the Prime Minister into trusting him and then suddenly launched... Now our whole family has crossed the Wishui River, and one-third of the troops have crossed the Feishui River. The vanguard General Tuwan is even more... We have already entered Ruyin, which means we have entered the territory of Huaixi... Why should we go back to pursue it?"

"We want to chase, but the sergeants are not willing..."

"That's right, marching for half a month has destroyed the morale and morale of the troops!"

"Do you really not care?"

"Let's go! Huaixi is just ahead, and there will be hot food!"

"We can't just ignore it, otherwise how will we explain it when we get to Dongdu?"

"Who should I explain to? I should explain to my son? The Prime Minister is here!"

"Without the emperor, how can we call ourselves prime minister?"

"..."

"..."

"Okay!" After listening for a while, Sima Huada suddenly became a little irritable and waved his hand to try to stop these messy discussions.

However, it didn't work.

"Shut up, everyone!" Sima Jinda became angry at this time and scolded him with his true energy, which had an immediate effect.

After a period of silence, Sima Huada spoke: "Don't talk nonsense, talk one by one... Where is Zuo Pushe? Is he here?"

"Zuopushe is coming right away." Someone responded immediately.

Sima Huada's eyelids twitched, wondering if he was still sleepy: "General Linghu, Niu Sheren, Fengsheren, did they call?"

"I'm going to shout." Sima Jinda came to his senses and immediately asked people to call all his brother's dependents, so that Sima Deke would take advantage of the situation to "force him into the palace."

"Then let's wait. Anyway, this is a big matter, so Zuo Pushe needs to open his mouth." Sima Huada nodded when he saw this, but simply put a straight face behind the case. "Before Zuo Pushe comes, everyone should shut up.

!”

Seeing this, the others seemed to realize that their behavior was somewhat inappropriate, and they all stood firm without saying much.

Just like that, the rain was dripping outside, and in the night, the small house in this small town that temporarily served as the command center of the Forbidden Army fell into a somewhat unpredictable silence. Occasionally, someone coughed and moved around, but it could not be broken.

The sound of rain outside could not break the sound of rain outside as everyone was deep in thought.

Besides, as we all know, Sima Qida is a smart man.

As the most accomplished one among Sima Bada, this person has received a good aristocratic education, and has sufficient and rich battlefield and official experience... He is good at cultivation, has culture, has military experience, and also has a certain political sense.

, and has strong execution ability, never being sloppy... Such a character should have been exposed long ago, but the brilliance of the Sima family has always been too obvious, and the central father's father has inevitably been obscured.

In fact, Sima Jinda has always boasted of his talents and believed that he could accomplish something, otherwise he would not have become one of the main planners of the Jiangdu Military Rebellion.

However, after the military coup, this self-proclaimed talent realized a truth and got to know a new person:

The thing is, it’s unrealistic to expect a few people (no matter how powerful, powerful or smart they are) to decide the direction of a major event. Sometimes you have to obey the crowd or follow the crowd. On the other hand, you should try to avoid yourself.

He fell into a situation of being in opposition to most people; and that person refers to his brother Sima Huada... Sima Jinda now knows very well that his eldest brother has a clear vision and keen sense of political power that far exceeds his own.

But that's all. Apart from this, this big brother is still useless.

This even makes the strengths of my eldest brother dangerous.

Based on this premise, after Sima Jinda filed the case, he began to seriously think about the beginning and end of the matter and everyone's reactions.

The first thing is the matter itself... This is actually the simplest part. It is because the thieves are deliberately planning it. Whether it is to paralyze the imperial army or to simply delay time, anyway, these surrenders are all internal agents of the army. They came here to get a glimpse of the opportunity.

, unwilling to delay, they immediately ran away with the emperor and the queen mother.

As for Duke Niu, he was most likely kidnapped by the group of servants, and Duke Niu had no choice but to fire his arrow, and had to control Zhao Xingmi, who was going to supervise the army.

So, if we just discuss the matter, should we pursue it?

Sima Jinda felt that he should not pursue it, because there was a high probability that he would not be able to catch up. In addition, the imperial army had been dragged down by the march during the rainy season. At this time, it was best to enter Huaixi as soon as possible, including returning to the east capital to rest.

The way to go... wait until the rest is complete, then come back after autumn, or resolve diplomatically, no problem.

But what do other people think?

Zhang Qianda wanted to get away with it. He was responsible for this matter, and he was the most responsible person on the surface, but he did not dare to discuss the actual most responsible person, which was his eldest brother, Prime Minister Sima, so he could not wait

Throw dirty water on Zhao Xingmi.

As for the others... Thinking of this, Sima Jinda's heart sank, because he had already realized from being caught off guard at night that the others actually had grievances against their Sima brothers.

There are two levels of resentment. The first one is that this matter itself is the responsibility of my eldest brother. It was my eldest brother who was flattered and confused by those who surrendered, especially the one who believed in Chishiro, which led to the emperor and the empress dowager being swept away, including before.

When Wang Zhuo came back, just because he had received the dry food and supplies brought by the other party, he was sent directly to the back to see Duke Niu. The appointment of Zhao Xingmi was also the problem of his eldest brother.

As for the other level, the march was too hard, and these generals were instinctively dissatisfied with the superiors who arranged the plan.

To be honest, it's a bit troublesome.

But when Sima Youpushe turned his attention to his eldest brother, his heart sank again.

Without him, Sima Jinda thought about it, but he realized another problem, that is, his eldest brother seemed to be the most uneasy person tonight... Losing the emperor and the queen mother would have a negative impact on the Forbidden Army as a whole, or in other words,

It is indeed a problem for the other generals in this room, but it is not a big problem, but it is really troublesome for his eldest brother, because the emperor and the queen mother are the ones who returned to Dongdu to face Erlang and the old Dongdu.

The important bargaining chip of his power is the foundation of the legitimacy of his identity as prime minister.

Of course, it’s just half the chips and half the foundation.

The legitimacy of my brother's status as prime minister actually comes from two places. One is the young emperor and the queen mother; the other is these people in the room. However, tonight, not only the queen mother and the emperor are gone, but these people are also

Everyone has grievances, so what outrageous things will his brother do in order to consolidate his power?

But don’t ever imitate the one who died!

Just as I was thinking about it, first a few Chen She and several generals of the Chinese army led by Sima Huada arrived. Then, almost in front and back, Zuopushe Sima Deke also brought Yuan Li and was waiting for a few people.

The generals are coming... Zuopushe was originally further ahead, but the generals coming from the east bank of Fei River passed by Prime Minister Sima here and contacted him directly, otherwise the two brothers would not have been so obviously angry before.

"What do you think of Zuo Pushe?" Sima Huada asked immediately after Sima Deke arrived.

"I think we need to save people." Smadek had obviously already thought about it on the way, and almost blurted out. "Otherwise, we won't be able to establish ourselves in Dongdu."

"That's not the case." Your servant She Sima Jinda quickly retorted, but his tone was much gentler than before. "Dongdu is our hometown, and my nephew is from the same sect and ranks as us. If not, we have soldiers and horses at hand.

, wouldn’t it be ridiculous if we still care about gaining a foothold?”

"It's not that I care about it for no reason." Sima Deke frowned. "Don't the people behind know, don't you and the Prime Minister know? I received a message from General Tuwan before. He said that he led his troops to Ruyin County, but he didn't see him.

To support the troops..."

There was an uproar around!

Sima Jinda quickly made amends: "Ruyin County is remote, it is the border between Huaixi and the gang, and it has experienced wars. It has only been a month since Wang Daiji followed Sima Zheng into the east. There is a shortage of soldiers and weapons, so it is normal to abandon Ruyin.

.”

"I thought so too, so I didn't care about it before." Sima Deke continued to frown. "But the night before tonight, I just received another message from General Tuwan. He said that he would send people to you.

In the south, Huaiyang asked for help, requiring soldiers, horses and logistics. As a result, the Huaiyang governor only responded in vain, not sending any people and even less supplies; while Runan did not respond at all. It is said that Wang Daiji received the military order and went to the east capital.

went."

Sima Jinda was also stunned for a moment.

And just for this moment, the surroundings were completely unbearable, and everyone roared, either angry or frustrated:

"Go to the west, go to the west! I'm afraid I'm going to die in the west this time!"

"Can't die."

"You have to shed your skin even if you can't die. If you keep walking like this for half a month, even those with advanced skills won't be able to bear it, and those without advanced skills will probably become useless!"

"Isn't Sima Erlong a member of your Sima family? Why are you so alienated?"

"It can't be because he killed the emperor. Someone must have chosen himself as prime minister and wanted to treat his father as his son, but others saw through it!"

The more the words are said, the more unpleasant they sound, the more they are said, the more explicit they become, and the more they are said, the more unscrupulous they become.

But everyone can understand this emotion... After all, if Ruyin and Ruyang didn't respond, it means that the same thing will happen again in the remaining half month of the rainy season!

Who can bear this?

Listening to the people talking more and more rudely, Sima Jinda couldn't suppress it even if he wanted to, and couldn't refute it even if he wanted to refute... Because few of these Guanlong nobles in the Forbidden Army are fools, and what they say is quite reasonable.

If you really want to forcefully refute it, you are afraid that you will be embarrassed instead. If you insist on suppressing it, this situation cannot be suppressed.

"But it's useless to go back." Sima Jinda tried his best to say. "The sergeants didn't agree."

"Promise." Zhang Qianda said suddenly. "Just tell them that we will take the north road instead and go back to Xingyang. There is food that will not go rancid in the north, money and silk that the army has saved for four years, and hot water for washing.

They went to the bathing place..."

Sima Jinda's head was buzzing, but he instinctively looked at his brother.

And sure enough, Sima Huada was slightly startled when he heard this, then narrowed his eyes and asked, "You all think so?"

"yes."

"The main reason is that the military spirit cannot bear it...it's too painful."

A few people spoke sporadically.

"I object." Sima Jinda quickly expressed his position. "We are already halfway there, why go back and cause trouble? The troops should enter Dongdu to rest and then make further calculations."

Sima Huada couldn't help but hesitate.

At this time, Yuan Lizheng suddenly interrupted: "Prime Minister, right servant, I have a guess about the situation in Ruyin, Ruyang and Huaiyang."

Sima Huada raised his hand to signal the other party to speak.

"I think General Sima (Sima Zheng) did it on purpose." Yuan Li was holding his knife and spoke simply. "He just wants to bring us down, and then when we enter Dongdu, we will naturally be unable to resist, and we will let him control us.

...Don’t think that it’s okay for generals to have cultivation skills. They also need to have sergeants to be considered generals. They will only follow.

Sima Huada laughed dryly without saying anything.

Sima Jinda also laughed: "You are judging a gentleman with a villain's heart, right? Even if there is no situation in Ruyin and Ruyang, if we are like this now, don't we need to be reorganized? In the beginning

When you return to the Eastern Capital, you will inevitably bow your head... Moreover, even if you are reorganized, won't you be missing anything? Aren't you still needed?"

The last two sentences don't seem to be addressed to the same person.

"Of course we won't be missing anything, but the Prime Minister will be missing." Yuan Lizheng still stood there, not in a hurry. "Because there is only one position for the Prime Minister. Although General Sima and the Prime Minister are father and son, they have always had political opinions.

No... If we are really reorganized, we can still continue to be generals and generals, but the prime minister, including the two servants on the left and right, will have no results."

"As long as the Sima family can gain momentum, why should I care about a short-term shooter?!"

Sima Jinda wanted to say this, but did not say it, because he knew that his brother cared, and he realized that Sima Deke actually cared too, and then he felt ridiculous... When the military coup began, the third Sima

Previously it was Sima brothers versus Sima Deke, but now it is actually his eldest brother and Sima Deke versus him?!

"Is it possible not to enter Dongdu?" Sima Jinda thought of this, almost mocking him with a cold air. "Sooner or later, this will happen."

"What I mean is that we can have enough supplies outside the Eastern Capital and have a neat army. We may even bring the Queen Mother and the Emperor back to the Eastern Capital." Yuan Li was answering Sima Jinda's question, but still only looked at Sima.

Hua Da, he knows that Sima Jinda can control everyone here, but he will only be controlled by the Prime Minister sitting here.

"What do you mean?" Sure enough, Prime Minister Sima asked with his eyes wide open.

"What I mean is that we are now turning north in Qiao County. Not only are we going to pursue His Majesty and the Queen Mother, but we are also going to go north and return to Dongdu from Xingyang as we told the sergeants." Yuan Lizheng said.

My own answer.

"What's there in Xingyang?" Sima Huada didn't react for a moment.

"There is a Luokou warehouse." Sima Deke finally came to speak. "I asked people on the road. It was about years ago that Li Shu broke into the Aoshan warehouse in Luokou outer warehouse. It was at the same time that Zhang Xing broke into the Liyang warehouse.

It was for this reason that Cao Lin died in battle, and Bai Hengqiu went out from Hongshan to Hebei to fight... I don't believe that the gang was at war and in civil strife. If they could evacuate the Luokou warehouse in time, they would evacuate it.

, wouldn’t it also fall on places like Liang County and Xingyang on the way? We can just use it. Prime Minister, whether we can catch up with the emperor and the queen mother or not, we can rest in Xingyang and enter Longqiao Pass calmly."

Sima Jinda and Sima Huada took a long breath almost at the same time.

However, both of them need words.

At this time, Yuan Li took the initiative and looked at the former for the first time after entering this house: "You servant shot, I know what you want to say. You are still afraid of fighting and not being able to defeat me, right?"

"Isn't it?" Sima Jinda said a little feebly. "We were nervous about the strength of the gang before and were unwilling to take the north route. Now that we have been soaked in half a month of rain, our combat strength has been greatly reduced..."

"It's because of this rain that we have a great chance of winning." Yuan Li looked at the other people in the room, and then spoke seriously to Brother Sima. "This matter has been discussed in the army before.

, it is a perfect time to fight the army at this time, because their soldiers and horses were separated by the rain, and we turned around now, and they were caught off guard... With these two things, it is enough for military affairs! Instead, the right servant will shoot you.

, maybe my mind was so occupied with going to Dongdu that I forgot to think about it!"

Sima Jinda was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, and was speechless on the spot.

Without him, this elite of the Sima clan was convinced that what the other party said was right - he passed through Qiao County, picked up a few fake surrenders, and met some locals. Basically, he could verify some information.

There are a total of fifty battalions, and the branch is well known to everyone in Jianghuai. There must be a lot of casualties in a big fight with Bai Hengqiu, and now there are about fifteen or six people who have appeared in front of the Forbidden Army.

Each battalion has different origins, different types of troops, and different combat capabilities. This shows that these fifteen or six battalions are specially prioritized to deal with the prevention of the imperial army.

So I would like to ask how many battalions the army has? Where are they?

It is a great anecdote that Bai Sanniang's fifth battalion encountered a typhoon in Dengzhou, and everyone knows it; at least ten battalions must be left in Hebei to defend Xue Changxiong; four or five battalions in Xingyang must be deployed to defend Dongdu; the newly surrendered Li

They definitely won't come... Then it is estimated that there are still a dozen dilapidated battalions, which should serve as the general reserve team in the core territory of the Gang on both sides of the river. It is precisely because of their dilapidated state that they can only serve as reserve teams.

As for the rain.

Previously, the rain did not penetrate through the Huaibei front line. Once a war breaks out, we still need to worry that this reserve force will go south to join the dozen or so battalions on the front line to create a large corps of 50,000 to 60,000 people, but now? Entering May.

, the plum rain has been falling for half a month, and no one will take the initiative to fall into a marching situation like the Forbidden Army.

Even the fifteen or six front-line battalions gradually ceased to exist.

In other words, General Meiyu's main force was divided into two groups, one in front and one in the back, and they should all be decentralized groups.

But the main force of the Forbidden Army had to march, and all of them were exposed to the rain.

"Is that so?" Sima Huada obviously didn't have enough confidence in the military, so he took the initiative to ask his seventh brother.

Sima Jinda met his brother's expectant gaze, but he was not in a hurry to reply. Instead, he looked around the room and found that almost everyone was looking at him. Whether it was Zhang Qianda or others who were following on the east bank of Feishui River or the west bank of Woshui River,

The main general of the Forbidden Army, who was full of complaints, obviously already had Sima Deke, Yuan Li and other generals in front of him, or his brother and several people who stayed overnight in this small town were regarded as confidants by his brother.

Linghu and other generals all looked at him with expressionless faces.

"It should be like this." Sima Jinda withdrew his gaze and almost calmly told his eldest brother about the fighting opportunities brought by the rain. "But there is another problem, that is, it is difficult for everyone to form an formation in the rain, and the opponent has three grandmasters...

"

"No." Sima Huada almost blurted out. "Duke Niu can't be premeditated. This departure must be caused by Wang Zhuo's servants coercing him. He will neither take action on us nor the gang.

…”

"That's two versus two!" Someone couldn't wait.

"The location of the third thief Zhang is not clear either." Another person reminded. "I'm not sure whether he is on the front line or not."

"This is a good thing, but the enemy must be widened, that is, two against two. Bring General Tuwan and General Yu together and attack Qiaojun!" Linghu Xing couldn't help it anymore. "Then it doesn't matter whether we win or not.

, regardless of whether we can succeed to the Queen Mother and the Emperor, we will not pursue Huanshui, we will just go north along the Huanshui Avenue."

"Then let's fight!" After hearing this, Sima Huada, who knew that there was no problem in the military, blurted out. "Isn't it just another annihilation to fight! Kill three birds with one stone! Why not fight?!"

The room instantly became noisy, and almost everyone was smiling.

Sima Jinda looked at these people and did not refute. How could he not know that the incident between the emperor and the queen mother was just an opportunity. The real key was that everyone in the room and the entire forbidden army had been wet enough today and wanted to take a shower.

What about a water bath?

Sima Youpushe had nothing to say and could only smile bitterly.

At dawn, at the foot of Dingtao Mountain in Xiao County, Pengcheng County, Xuzhou County, the rain was as heavy as before. Zhang Xing, the gang chief, who had finished his porridge and was about to set off, received another letter from Li Ding.

He opened it and looked at it, and was silent for more than ten breaths. After a long time, Huang Qiao turned around and smiled: "Erlang, what do you think Li Si is going to do again?"

"War?" Qin Bao blurted out.

"Not bad." Zhang Xing nodded.

"Did any military situation happen?" Qin Bao asked calmly. "Otherwise, why would we send another letter?"

"Wang Zhuo and Wang Hou brought the Queen Mother and the Emperor to Jishan." Zhang Xing calmly narrated. "Duke Niu has also gone, and the highest combat strength of the Forbidden Army is missing. This is naturally a major change in the military situation."

"Do you want to fight?" Qin Bao disagreed. "Can two-thirds of the leaders in Jishan agree this time?"

"No matter what, I can't go to Xuzhou." Zhang Xing replied quietly. "I'll also write a letter... tell Du Pozhen and Fu Boshi to come see me."

Qin Bao nodded.

In this way, Zhang Xingzi wrote a letter, sent a messenger, and then rode back with more than a dozen attendants. At about noon, when he was almost reaching Huanshui, he saw dozens of horsemen.

Coming along the Huan River, people were shouting before the sound of bells could be heard from afar.

When it came to me, there was another letter.

Zhang Xing read it briefly in the rain and handed it directly to Qin Bao, saying casually: "The entire Imperial Army turned around and came north. I'm afraid I have to write another letter to Du Po Zhen and Fu Bo Shi."

"What's the content?" Qin Bao raised his eyebrows slightly after reading the text message.

"Let them attack Yujiluo. If they violate military orders again this time, I will let Du Pozhen be the second Li Shu." Zhang Xing said as he got off his horse and wrote the second letter of the day in the rain.

Qin Bao thought about it on the horse and seemed to have reacted, but he asked again on the spot: "Did the Forbidden Army take the initiative to barge in?"

Zhang Xing ignored it, just spread out a piece of paper on the saddle, wrapped it with zhenqi, looked around, hesitated, picked up a charcoal pen and wrote: "It is May, and the rain is pouring like the sky."
