royal robes

Chapter 812
Now Dazhou is calm internally, just fight against foreign enemies.If you can't even do this kind of thing well, Chai Rong, the emperor, will be in vain.So Zong Xin doesn't need to make any more moves, Chai Rong will definitely solve it by himself.

Zong Xin's next step is to travel around the mountains and rivers.But I have to go back to Leiwang Mansion to rest for a few months...

Zong Xin said excitedly: "After a few months of rest, it's almost summer. The Emei Mountain in summer is a must. Who of you wants to go and see it? As the saying goes, Qingcheng is the best in the world, and Emei is beautiful in the world. These places are all within the territory of Shu Kingdom, it would be a pity if you don’t go and have a look. You can also taste the taste of Sichuan cuisine by the way..."

"Eh~ It's too spicy." Yaoyao said disgustedly: "Sichuan cuisine has too many peppers. Both you and Bai Yu like spicy food, but I don't like it. I like sour ones."

Yaoyao grew up in Taiyuan since she was a child, and she likes to eat sour food.Zongxin and Baiyu couldn't bear the taste of vinegar when eating dumplings, because Zongxin and Baiyu both had to dip chili oil in their dumplings.Of course, Zong Xin and Yaoyao's tastes were not as strong as Ning An and Tian Ya's. They ate peppers while eating steamed buns.Dugu Xingyue's taste is light, and he prefers sweet food.

Zong Xin nodded and said: "Troublesome~ people in our car can like any taste. It's time to improve Sichuan cuisine. I know that there is a dish called fish-flavored shredded pork, which is sweet and sour, but I don't know how to do it well. Do it. There’s nothing to do anyway, let’s try to research some flavors that everyone likes.”

Zong Xin took off all the shackles, and no longer cared about the affairs of the world, in fact, everyone was very happy.Next is their happy time, there is no rush to do anything, traveling all the way, tasting delicacies from all over the world, no need to worry about not having enough money to spend, and no need to worry about any dangers along the way... Just live a carefree life and have fun , this is definitely the happiest thing.

Zong Xin's only task now is to teach Tianya and Zhang Qiqi well. Tianya basically doesn't need to teach him anymore, and Zhang Qiqi is still young, so there is no need to teach him anything.I feel very relaxed, because after the death of Wu Yanhong Yu, Zong Xin has no natural enemies.

Yaoyao suddenly said: "Sir, I suddenly remembered something. Don't you still have an old friend in the Xishu Palace? Now that Wu Yanhongyu is dead, you can just rush into the Shu Palace to give that old friend to you." Isn't it next?"

Zong Xin waved his hand and said: "There is no need for this. In a few years, other people will pick her up. I have already promised that I will never go to other women. Don't worry. In my hometown, a man can only Marrying one wife, now I am too happy to have four wives, I dare not think otherwise."

"I don't believe it. Which man doesn't want to have three wives and four concubines? Is there anyone who thinks he has too many wives? What's more, Mr. Xianggong, you are the best in the world in terms of financial resources and martial arts. There are many girls who like you. Wait until you get tired of seeing it." We will definitely think of other women when we look at our faces."

Yaoyao had a strange look on her face, and she didn't know whether she really thought so or tested Zong Xin.Anyway, Zong Xin didn't speak, just smiled awkwardly.Yaoyao has been like this since she was a child. She thinks of the worst case first, so that even if the worst case happens, she will not be too surprised. If the worst case does not happen, she will of course be happier.

This time Zong Xin did not take the water route, but traveled westward in a carriage, and he did not want to miss the scenery on the road.Anyway, there is plenty of time now, no need to worry about other things, this is the most wonderful moment.

………………

It is difficult to put out the fire near the water. Liu Chong of the Northern Han Dynasty accepted the lesson of the last time and did not attack Weizhou by force.Instead, he led people to besiege Weizhou, and ordered Zhang Yuanwei to take [-] soldiers to garrison Lianghouyi, preparing to take Luzhou directly.

Li Yun, the envoy of the Zhaoyi Festival, sent Mu Lingjun to lead 2000 infantry and [-] cavalry each to fight against Zhang Yuanhui. Zhang Yuanhui fought Mu Lingjun, pretending to be unable to defeat him, and fled. Mu Lingjun ordered to chase him. , Beheaded more than [-] soldiers and captured more than [-] people.Li Yun fled back to Luzhou and defended himself according to the city.

Liu Chong immediately ordered to attack Luzhou, and Luzhou soon fell. Although Li Yun fought back, he was defeated by the Northern Han army, and soon lost Luzhou, wounded and fled.

Song Yan was besieged by the [-] Khitan army led by Yang Dagon, unable to rescue him at all.Liu Chong did not rush forward at this time, but directly detained everyone in Luzhou, still hoisting the Great Zhou army flag, and put on a defensive posture. From the surface, nothing changed.

Liu Chong sent 8000 people from Liu Chengjun, the second son of Liu Chong, to camp outside Luzhou and plant the banner of the Northern Han Dynasty. At this time, Luzhou was originally occupied by Liu Chong, and there were still nearly 4 horses in the city.Most of them know why Liu Chong arranged it like this, only some smart people can see Liu Chong's intention.

The reason why Liu Chong is so bold is because he has two counselors under his tent, one is Chi Mu, the brother who came late to the Taoist, and the other is Wudang Mountain Guo Wuwei.These two people are able to pinch and count, and they are very resourceful. This trick can make others think that Luzhou is not occupied, but just besieged by the army of the Northern Han Dynasty.

Although Guo Wei died, this was a good opportunity for the Northern Han Dynasty.But Liu Chong had lingering fears about Zongxin's confidence, and he didn't dare to send troops to attack Dazhou when Zongxin was still alive.It was also Guo Wuwei who calculated that Zong Xin would not make a move this time, and that Zong Xin would not do anything for Da Zhou in the future.

Although Liu Chong was dubious, this was an excellent opportunity.Taoist Wuwei and Taoist Chi Mu had already thought of this clever plan, and directly abandoned the Khitan army and let them trap Song Yan.As long as Song Yan is held back, Luzhou City can be taken directly, and then a team of troops will be sent to besiege the city ahead, while the rest of the troops will stand by in a defensive posture.This plan can definitely annihilate the Da Zhou army who came to aid in one fell swoop.

Liu Chong waited in Luzhou excitedly for more than half a month, and the original excitement began to fade away, and the rest was just worry.It would be bad if such a dangerous tactic was seen through by the opponent.Although it is not deep into the enemy's abdomen, it is still far away from its own territory. At this time, if it is besieged, it is basically a dead end.

Wuwei and Chimu talked about military tactics and their experiences every day, and Liu Chong had no choice but to shoot. Even if he knew it was dangerous, he still had to persevere.Having come this far, Liu Chong cannot give up easily.What's more, there are [-] Khitan troops and [-] Northern Han troops outside, so it is impossible for such a lineup to lose.

Of course, in Liu Chong's eyes, it has been impossible many times, but every time he was turned over by Zong Xin, this also made Liu Chong have some doubts about this "impossibility".But how can Guo Wei pass up such a good opportunity?Guo Wei is not only strong in martial arts, but also proficient in the art of war. With him in charge of Dazhou, it is indeed difficult to break through.What's more, there is Zong Xin, who is the person Liu Chong fears the most.

But this time it was really good, Guo Wei passed away, Zong Xin and Chai Rong were at odds, and they would not help him.Taking advantage of the time when the new emperor ascends the throne, it is an excellent opportunity to carry out a large-scale operation.If Chai Rong is allowed to stabilize the country, it will be even more difficult to break through Da Zhou at that time.

Finally, the Great Zhou army appeared above the horizon.Chai Rong led the expedition in person and led [-] soldiers to reinforce Weizhou. He never expected to encounter the Northern Han army besieging the city in Luzhou.

In Luzhou City, Liu Chong hid behind the crenels of the city wall with an excited expression on his face, watching the Da Zhou army slowly approaching in the distance, his saliva was almost drooling.It is this battle that decides the universe.

"Here we come, the last moment has finally come." Liu Chong gritted his teeth and said, "Is this strategy really feasible? The Da Zhou army wouldn't just come to besiege the city, right? We are far away from the enemy's camp. If this When you are surrounded, it is a dead end."

Chi Mu said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the Zhou army has only three options. Either attack the city, besiege the city, or attack the army outside the city. First of all, if the Zhou army dares to attack the city, it will be a combination of inside and outside. The Zhou army will be defeated, right?"

Liu Chong nodded and said, "That makes sense, what if the Zhou army besieged the city or attacked the army outside the city?"

"It's the same. Anyway, they fought outside the city. If we rush out of the city to attack back and forth, the Zhou army will still be defeated." Chi Mu said to himself, "Unless the Zhou army doesn't care about Luzhou and the troops outside the city, otherwise They will definitely die. But then again, what are they doing here? How could they ignore Luzhou? So no matter whether Zhou Jun can see that Lu has been occupied, we will win."

Zhang Yuanwei said excitedly at the side: "This time the Khitan army has taken a big advantage. They can fight a big victory without giving up a single soldier. If we had known this, we shouldn't have called the Khitan army here. We alone The Northern Han Dynasty can completely defeat the Zhou army."

"That makes sense." Chi Mu said: "But the Khitan army still plays a big role. Without them to hold back the Song clan in Weizhou, how could we have captured Luzhou so blatantly and laid an ambush here."

Daoist Wuwei said with a gloomy face, "This is a strong enemy. Unexpectedly, the new emperor Chai Rong would personally lead the conquest, and the enemy soldiers are so numerous. This battle must not be careless, and must be won in one fell swoop, otherwise the opponent will counterattack, and it will be our army who will suffer. "

"What is the meaning of Taoist Wuwei? I am also a royal conscript, so why are their soldiers higher than ours?"

Wuwei said: "Cao GUI has something to say in the debate. He worked hard, then weakened, and finally exhausted. Our army has been recuperating in Luzhou for more than half a month, and the morale of the soldiers has long since been wiped out. At this time, the Zhou army is aggressively attacking. This time It was our army who violated the border, so I felt a bit grudged. But the Zhou army was different. They wanted to drive the offenders out of their territory. With the emperor's personal conquest, the morale must be high when they first entered the battlefield. Therefore, they must be caught by surprise, so that The soldiers disappeared without a trace in an instant, and only this method can conquer the Great Zhou's reinforcements. This time Chai Rong is also here, as long as we win this battle, the Great Zhou will be at our fingertips."

Liu Chong nodded excitedly, almost drooling.Originally, the army on the other side had the superiority in numbers, and they waited for work at leisure. As long as they were caught off guard, let alone Chai Rong, even if Zong Xin was there... I hope Zong Xin was not there.

Liu Chong was not afraid of Chai Rong, nor any general in the Great Zhou Dynasty, but Zong Xin.Since the last defeat, I can dream of the fire every night when I go to sleep, burning my [-] troops... [-] troops.This is no longer a matter of heartache. All [-] soldiers died in exile, which is the most embarrassing thing in the world.Fortunately, with the help of half a dragon's vein, the weather in the Northern Han Dynasty was smooth. Although so many soldiers were sacrificed in the war, the lives of the people in the Northern Han Dynasty were good.

This time Liu Chong almost gave up all his belongings, if he failed again this time, how could he have the face to go back?But this time it will not fail, because Zong Xin is not around, and Zhou Jun has already stepped into this trap.
