Chenzhou is not too close to the capital, but from Mianzhou to here, the road to attack is halfway done.

King Fu and Princess Dachang are both sitting in the chariot, their identities are noble after all, even if they are marching, they will not be as embarrassed as Zhong Shao and the others.What's more, although they don't have to take the lead, the direction of the entire army is up to them to decide.

At this moment, King Fu was discussing matters with Princess Dachang, and there was no one else present in the chariot for the time being.

Fu Wang was obviously satisfied with pushing the battle line so far for a mere three months.There are too many disciples of the eldest princess, and those who are lucky in the state capital along the way, the governor of the state capital is the disciple of the eldest princess, and they immediately surrender.If you are less lucky, most of them also have the help of senior officials such as Changshi, Sima, or joining the army. It is not difficult to conquer.

King Jing'an and the others rose up a month earlier than King Fu, but in terms of the speed of attacking the city, they were far behind their Mianzhou army.King Fu couldn't help but start to look forward to it. If the next journey can be so smooth, then no matter how many vassal kings raise their troops, he must be the first to attack the capital. The eldest princess' base camp, having her there is his advantage!

Of course, the idea is beautiful, but there are too many changes in reality, and the first change that can't make King Fu fulfill his wish happened.

The chariot ordered by the Prince is not small enough to be arranged into a small living room. At this moment, King Fu is sitting opposite the Eldest Princess. There is a low table between them, on which is a map.

King Fu tapped Chenzhou on the map, and asked the eldest princess on the opposite side with a serious expression: "Yingyang, does Chenzhou have to attack by force? Your people..."

Princess Dachang's complexion was not very good-looking, she frowned slightly, and said: "Chenzhou governor is Xiao Qian's man, and he is a staunch royalist, he will stick to it." After a pause, she said: "I am here There are not many people in Chenzhou, and the highest position is only a sihu, and somehow the governor of Chenzhou noticed it, and it is said...he has been chopped off!"

Speaking of the current situation, it is still possible to surrender because of a word from the Eldest Princess. Basically, they are loyal and trusted followers of her. Some of them are damaged, and the Eldest Princess also feels distressed.Although Sihu is an official in charge of household registration in the state capital, and his rank is not high, as long as there are people in the city, it is always good to cooperate with the inside and outside.Without this convenience, King Fu was obviously a little frustrated.

Knowing that there is no shortcut, King Fu also sighed, and then said: "In this case, we can only send troops to attack." He frowned again: "I heard that the imperial court has dispatched troops to Chenzhou, and I don't know how many troops have been dispatched. Come here, coupled with the towering city walls of Chenzhou and sufficient reserves of food and grass, this battle may not be easy."

From south to north, the Mianzhou army attacked the city and conquered territory all the way, but with the help of the eldest princess, the road was almost like breaking a bamboo.They haven't fought any real tough battles yet, Fu Wang is inevitably a little worried.

Princess Dachang was noncommittal when she heard the words, thought for a while, and said: "This battle is not easy, but it should not be delayed for too long. I have a leader on my side who can recommend it to Brother Wang."

King Fu cheered up after hearing the words. Although they haven't fought any tough battles these days, they have experienced a lot of battles, big and small.Not to mention, he now has some self-knowledge. He is not a general, nor are his two sons. The shortcut provided by the eldest princess is the biggest reason why he has been able to fight so smoothly. In other large and small battles, almost It was all because of the suppression of troops, and then they won the victory with a crushing posture.

There are still two young generals in the Mianzhou Army who are good at fighting, but they are still young, and they can't stand alone now.Therefore, after hearing what the eldest princess said, King Fu immediately became interested, and said: "You have such a talent, Yingyang, you didn't say it earlier."

Princess Dachang smiled when she heard the words, and said: "Brother Wang is entirely responsible for the march and siege of the city, I will not easily intervene. What's more, the person I recommend has not yet gotten along with the Mianzhou Army, and I am afraid that he will miss the opportunity of the battle. "

Now the two sides are considered to be cooperation, and Fu Wang's biggest bargaining chip is the [-] Mianzhou Army in his hands.If the eldest princess wanted to put people in the Mianzhou army from the very beginning, especially if she was the leader of the army, Fu Wang and his son would definitely have a rift with her.But it was different at this time, because they were missing, so she gave it away, not to mention that she had spoken so clearly in advance.

Fu Wang's eyes also flashed when he heard the words. In fact, after the past three months, he has also become a little wary of the eldest princess, and even vaguely understands why Emperor Jing Yuan attacked her.Looking at the influence of Princess Dachang in these local state capitals, King Fu was startled, let alone the capital she had run for many years.No emperor can tolerate the existence of such a person, even if the other party is just a princess without a son!

But being vigilant is vigilant, and being frightened is frightening. Now that the Eldest Princess is on his side, she can provide him with too much convenience.King Fu was very happy: "Where is this saying? Now you and I are allies, Yingyang, you have capable people under your command, and I am very happy to make this battle go smoothly. That's it for battle."

Saying this, Fu Wang actually had some small thoughts in his heart.The eldest princess is a woman after all, if she has really good fighters under her command, and if she fights a few more battles, he will let her son go over to poach the wall!This battlefield is full of soldiers and horses from his Mianzhou, he doesn't believe that he can't dig out a general to come.

Thinking about it this way, King Fu asked, "By the way, Yingyang, you haven't said who you are yet?"

The eldest princess already had a panoramic view of those changes in King Fu's expression, and also guessed his little thoughts, but she was not worried at all, so she said slowly: "It's Wu Changjun, I don't know if Brother Wang has heard of it. his name?"

Fu Wang was startled when he heard the words, then frowned and thought for a long time, vaguely felt that this name seemed to have been heard somewhere.But after much deliberation, there was no result, so he had to smile wryly and said: "Yingyang, don't embarrass me, I have been away from Beijing for so many years, how can I know these people who came later?"

It was Xu Wenjin who contacted Fu Wang at the beginning, and Wu Changjun was always by Zhong Shao's side all year round, so Fu Wang really didn't deal with him.As for hearing about it, it may be a few words from Xiao Wenxuan, or it may be that Wu Changjun's fame came to the ears of King Fu when he was still in the army more than ten years ago.But in any case, the name obviously failed to leave any trace in his heart.

Princess Dachang was not surprised either, she simply explained Wu Changjun's origins to King Fu in an understatement - at the beginning Wu Changjun and Xu Wenjin were able to fall into the eyes of the noble concubine and were chosen as Zhong Shao's teacher, obviously he also had a part in it. Very illustrious resume.

Therefore, as soon as the eldest princess finished speaking, King Fu made a final decision: "This man is not bad, let him have a try in this battle of Chenzhou."

************************************************** **********

It was mid-June when the Mianzhou army approached the city of Chenzhou, and it was the hottest time of the year after falling into ambush.

Zhong Shao wore a suit of armor, but she didn't really go to fight in front of the battle. Most of the time, she just followed the Eldest Princess and acted as a personal guard. There are dangers everywhere on the battlefield, even the Eldest Princess They usually don't go to the front line in person, but they have been outflanked and attacked more than once, but they haven't met anyone who can really kill Princess Dachang and King Fu.

At this moment, the siege of Chenzhou city has begun, and Princess Dachang, King Fu and others are watching from a distance behind the army formation.

Zhong Shao stood beside the eldest princess, looking up at the gunpowder battlefield in the distance, even though the distance was far enough, but a gust of wind blew by, he could still smell the thick bloody smell that belonged only to the battlefield.

Since all the guards around were soldiers from the Princess Mansion, Zhong Shao didn't have too many scruples in speaking. She looked at the battlefield in the distance for a while, and then said with some concern: "Sir, I haven't been on the battlefield for a long time. Is it inappropriate for Aniang to recommend him to lead the army this time?"

The eldest princess didn't take it seriously, and said lightly: "Your own sir, I don't believe it anymore." Seeing that Zhong Shao was still worried, she said: "Don't worry, King Fu won't be so relieved to send soldiers The horse was handed over to him, so didn’t the two sons of the palace go with him? If they don’t lose twice, these people will be reluctant to hand over the power of leading the army.”

Therefore, before today's battle, the Eldest Princess had already made peace with Wu Changjun, so that he would not have to pay attention to those two princes, and just lead the troops assigned to him.In this way, it is impossible to defeat nature, but it is possible to see the advantages and disadvantages more clearly.After a few times, it is impossible for King Fu to let the Mianzhou army consume, and he can only really hand over the power of leading the army to Wu Changjun, and then try to win him over.

Zhong Shao understood what the eldest princess meant in an instant, and lost interest in the siege battle in the distance, because this battle was doomed to return in vain.What needs to be cared about is only loss and Wu Changjun's safety.

Of course, Zhong Shao did not believe that these raiders could die so easily. Back then, Zhan Pengfei was just an accident, and he deliberately sold it badly, but he sold it too badly. When he added 80 favorability points at once, he directly slipped away.

No longer caring about the battle situation, Zhong Shao turned to think about the current actions of the eldest princess, but was suddenly surprised—the Mianzhou army is the only reliance of King Fu and the others, but at present, it seems that the eldest princess is already making moves in this regard up.It's just that Fu Wang's inertial thinking doesn't think that the eldest princess is a woman who would want to be the emperor, so his defense against her is limited after all.

Zhong Shao suddenly remembered Xiao Wenxuan, hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "What does A Niang think of King Fu?"

The Eldest Princess' gaze was originally set on the distant battlefield, but upon hearing this, she glanced at her, her gaze a little downcast.But he didn't say much, just replied: "There is caution, there is ambition, and ability... can only be regarded as mediocre."

In fact, the eldest princess really didn't pay attention to such a person, because King Fu hadn't raised his troops after he got the news, so he knew that his courage was far inferior to the three kings.But it was also because of this that Princess Dachang came to Mianzhou with Zhong Shao and the others, and King Fu's role in her was not at all the [-] Mianzhou Army.
