The remaining Luozhou rebels were all captured, and the Chu army suffered less than [-] casualties. The results are gratifying.

"Even if you didn't use the trick of capturing the king this time, brother can still wipe out this group of rebels." After King Yan returned to the camp, he first clearly divided his military achievements and put himself in the first place.

"It's hard to walk on the hillside, isn't it?" the evil ninth brother asked him with the corners of his mouth hooked: "When I arrived, I saw from a distance that the sixth brother slipped step by step and rushed towards the rebels recklessly. With a stick of incense, he ran for a whole day Seven steps away, the rebels had dispersed by the time we reached the destination, I really broke into a cold sweat for Brother Six, if I was two steps too late, the rebels would have already gone down the mountain."

"Hahahahahahaha!" The lieutenant on the side laughed loudly, until he saw King Yan's vengeful eyes from the corner of his eye, he choked in fright, lowered his head and coughed for a long time, and said something fair: "Our team Most of the troops are gunners and gunners. Not to mention that they are far less flexible than the natives on the hillside, even if they fight on the flat ground, they will suffer. Fortunately, His Royal Highness arrived in time, otherwise, this battle may result in the loss of more than a thousand firearms battalion soldiers."

Seeing the Sixth Brother drooping his head when he heard the words, Xie Duo finally straightened up, and said something human: "If the artillery divisions are used as army envoys, and the loss of more than a thousand people is considered a great victory, if the Sixth Brother hadn't chosen the right ambush point to lure the enemy In-depth, this battle is really hard to predict."

King Yan's eyes lit up again, and he waved his hands triumphantly: "It's just a trick!"

This time it was his ninth younger brother's turn to laugh happily.

After discussing how to use the captives to lure the enemy, several lieutenants stood up and resigned.

In the huge tent, only two brothers, King Yan, were left.

Seeing Lao Jiu intently lowering his head and rubbing the peanut skins, King Yan felt an inexplicable sense of security in his heart.

The invisible and intangible barrier suddenly disappeared. Even if they sat together without talking, they would not be as alienated as they were a while ago.

Xie Duo didn't have the same sense of vigilance as before. He didn't notice that Brother Six was watching him all the time. After rubbing a plate of flower body rice, he pushed it in front of Brother Six and said, "You eat."

King Yan smiled: "You eat by yourself."

"It's specially reserved for you." Xie Duo said, "Did you save all the food for the soldiers these days, and live on an empty stomach?"

King Yan shook his head in relief, "I feel at ease, and I'm not hungry."

"Eat quickly." Xie Duo tapped the lower table with his index finger, and said with a serious expression, "This is the peanuts peeled for you by the God of War himself. If you don't eat it, you will look down on the God of War."

King Yan squinted at him: "You came all the way from Beijing, and you brought two bags of rice and this small bag of peanuts?"

Xie Duo lowered his eyelashes, fell silent for a moment, and said with a smirk: "I brought a lot of delicious pastries, but I ate them all on the way, so I only have these, and I want to exchange a glass of water with Sixth Brother to quench my thirst. "

King Yan couldn't help laughing out loud, Xie Duo also showed two small canine teeth, and smiled, King Yan found out the problem, and turned to him and asked, "You really didn't just take these 1000 people out of Beijing, did you?" ?”

"No." Xie Duo said seriously: "Actually, I didn't take anyone out of the capital. My mother wouldn't let me go. Your elder Xu Ge told me to put the overall situation first and didn't allow me to call the capital's garrison. We have reached an agreement, I can only use the name of being angry, stay in the East Palace behind closed doors, and ask my attendant to assist third brother in government affairs."

King Yan was shocked and said: "What? You escaped from the capital?"

Xie Duo narrowed his eyes dangerously, reminding him to pay attention to his words: "In the dictionary of God of War, there is no word 'escape'."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's get down to business." King Yan became nervous: "Why are you so reckless? Both of us are no longer in the capital. If people find out, the Duanwang party takes advantage of the situation to demand the old seventh-generation government, why don't you Don't you want to give the power you have so hard to win to Li Ge for nothing?"

Xie Duo shook his head, and said lightly, "Mr. Li Ge will not disobey Father's will."

King Yan felt relieved when he heard the words, and asked in doubt: "Since you didn't lead troops out of the capital, where did these more than a thousand soldiers come from?"

"These are your transport teams." Xie Duo raised his eyebrows and said, "I reckon your transport team should have reached the vicinity of Lu Tongchuan, so as soon as you leave Beijing, catch up with them along the official road and let them unload their heavy artillery and firearms Leave one troop to guard the post station, and the rest are divided into two teams, one to deliver food and grass, and the other to rush to help overnight."

"It's really yours." King Yan smiled in surprise, "How dare you come to help with more than 1000 supplies? Are you afraid that you will lose your life if you can't help?"

"Afraid?" Xie Duo narrowed his eyes majestically, turned his back to King Yan, pointed his thumb up and said, "Did you see the words engraved on my armor?"

King Yan had no choice but to take a closer look at the armor with a smile.

After seeing the two characters "God of War", one big and one small, the King of Yan was furious: "You carved this character yourself! It's so ugly! Look at the good armor I made for you!"

Xie Duo turned around and said proudly, "It was engraved for me by my attendant."

"Mr. Xiaobai?" Yan Wang said with disgust on his face, "Don't brag, Han Jiao's handwriting is so good, how could it be carved like this?"

"He really carved it." Xie Duo couldn't help laughing when he thought about it, and told Sixth Brother in a low voice: "This armor is too hard, he can't carve it. He regretted it after the first character was carved, and his hands trembled. The two characters can only be engraved a little smaller."

"Hahahahaha!" The two evil brothers laughed at the little child prodigy behind their backs.

"Why did he have to engrave these two characters for you?" King Yan expressed his puzzlement after laughing.

It's a long story.

When he returned to Xiyuan that day, Xie Duo told Han Jiao his rescue plan.

Hearing that he was going to leave Beijing overnight, Han Jiao panicked and refused to cooperate with his plan desperately, not wanting him to go to the battlefield alone.

In order to appease Han Jiao, Xie Duo stayed in Beijing for one night and prepared to leave before dawn the next day.

Still worried, Han Jiao dragged him to Jiajiafang, took out the suit of armor designed by Xie Xiu in advance, and asked Xie Duo to put it on before leaving.

This armor has not been fully assembled, and the parts that change the shape have not been finished. In fact, it is no different from ordinary armor, but Han Jiao insists on him wearing this set.

Even so, Han Jiao was still in a panic because Xie Duo had told him all about the emperor's intrigue.

In the original book, Xie Duo probably woke up too late and committed an irreparable mistake before, and then angrily killed himself after learning that he was being used by the emperor.

It is reasonable to say that such an ending should not be repeated, but Han Jiao is not at ease, because Xie Duo in the original book was ambushed with King Yan before the incident.

This made Han Jiao very flustered, so panicked that it was unreasonable.

Xie Duo repeatedly promised that he would see the opportunity, and if he was not sure of victory, he would just drag King Yan out of the battlefield and escort him back to Beijing.

Han Jiao suppressed his emotions reluctantly, held Xie Duo in his arms and gave many instructions, but he still couldn't bear to let go. Then he figured out a way to engrave letters on the armor, stayed by Xie Duo's side for half an hour, and finally let him go reluctantly.

Hearing Han Jiao's panic-stricken behavior, King Yan realized what kind of risk the Ninth Brother was taking when he came here.

With mixed feelings in his heart, King Yan stared blankly at Xie Duo, speechless. After a long time, he raised his hand to touch the back of his brother's head, but Brother Xiong quickly slapped him away.

"What are you doing?" Xie Duo didn't like being patted on the head by his brother.

Seventh Brother learned this from Sixth Brother, wanting to slap him on the head at every turn, and in public, the behavior of the two elders, who are over eight feet tall, always feels that their brains are not working well.

If it wasn't for Seventh Brother who couldn't stand the stimulation, Xie Duo would have resisted a long time ago, Sixth Brother doesn't have to be used to it.

"I don't know." King Yan's nose was inexplicably sour, his lips were tightly pressed, and he looked at his younger brother with a smile, and said in a hoarse voice: "It feels... I haven't seen you for a long time, brat... How are you dead these few months?" Gone? I thought... I would never see that troublemaker again."

The smirk on Xie Duo's face disappeared, his eyes became bewildered, and he looked at Sixth Brother quietly.

It was like a reunion after a long absence.

"I'm sorry, Sixth Brother." Xie Duo looked solemn.

King Yan hugged his younger brother's shoulders and touched his forehead. After a long time, he said in a low voice: "I know, these days, the burden on your shoulders is too heavy."

Xie Duo bowed his head and remained silent.

"I will try my best to share your worries in the future. If you don't do well, you have to tell me, don't be bored."

"You haven't done anything wrong." Xie Duo raised his eyes and looked sideways at him: "It's because of Father."
