Chapter 215: Attack Xiqi again. The old general leads the army and the two treacherous ministers are frightened!
Let’s talk about Jin Chan, the eldest disciple of Hunyuan Saint Lin Zhu, who defeated the Western Medicine Master Buddha, so the two families stopped fighting.
Jin Chan opened his eyes for his disciple Wen Zhong. After some more guidance on practice, he ordered his disciples to go to Huanghua Mountain to find another opportunity.
After Wen Zhong said goodbye to Jin Chan, he summoned another general, Fu Hao. After the handover, only a few hundred guards remained and detoured around Huanghua Mountain.
In Chaoge City, since Bigan, Mei Bo, Shang Rong, Du Yuanxian, etc., a large number of loyal and honest people in the court were executed by Emperor Xin and Sister Su.
In the court, there was no one who dared to remonstrate. There are only two great traitors, Fei Zhong and Long Hun. Apart from flattery and flattery, I'm afraid no one would say a few words in front of Di Xin.
There is no one to advise against this, but Su Daji, the Jade Pipa, and the Nine-Headed Pheasant are even more confident.
A lot of manpower and material resources were spent on building grass basins, cannons, deer terraces, and wine ponds and meat forests for the three great demons to accompany Emperor Xin to enjoy.
Just like this, the three demons are still not satisfied. Every day, select a few young men and women to eat. There are countless bones piled up in the palace.
Emperor Xin also neglected government affairs and indulged in drinking and sex. In that palace, there was a terrible wind and evil clouds. Even during the day, there are ghosts wandering around. There are some common people everywhere who were eaten by monsters and their flesh and blood were not reincarnated.
Even under such circumstances, the news of Zhang Guifang's defeat and death reached Chaoge.
The reason is that Fei Zhong and You Hun, who were bribed by Westerners, were two traitors. Naturally, they are always waiting for the news of the army marching to the west from the front.
In order to continue to encourage Emperor Xin to send a large army to conquer the Xiqi rebels. Therefore, when Zhang Guifang, the commander-in-chief of Qinglong Pass, arrived at Chaoge City, he was the messenger. Fei and You two traitors learned the news.
The two traitors were overjoyed and hurried into the palace to see Emperor Xin. Emperor Xin, this ignorant and ignorant king, is still in a state of drunkenness and half-awake.
After hearing that Fei Zhong and You Hun asked for an audience, they had to reluctantly ascend to the palace. Look at the two of them and ask what they are doing.
Seeing Emperor Xin hugging him from left to right, sitting and lying on the golden palace. Fei Zhong then stepped out of class, looked at Di Xin and said:
"Your Majesty, I have my own memorial. Zhang Guifang, the commander-in-chief of Qinglong Pass, was ordered to conquer Xiqi. Unexpectedly, he suffered a disastrous defeat and lost the lives of the Four Saints of Kowloon Island. I beg you, Your Majesty, to send reinforcements early to rescue him."< br>
At this time, Emperor Xin, as well as the civil and military forces of the DPRK, did not know that Zhang Guifang and his 100,000 soldiers were trapped in the secret camp of Xiqi's army and horses, and the entire army was wiped out.
When Emperor Xin heard Fei Zhong's performance, he opened his drunken eyes wide and said to Fei Zhong:
"My dear, don't panic. Victory or defeat is a common thing for military strategists. Since Zhang Guifang was defeated, it must have been due to insufficient troops. It would be better to choose another good general from the court and send troops to Xiqi."
When Fei Zhong heard this, he secretly cursed Emperor Xin.
"I'm just a doctor, and I don't care about military affairs. Even if a general is to be dispatched, it must be issued by the king and nominated by the military and political affairs department. Otherwise, only the military generals in the court can volunteer to go."
< br>
Fei Zhong could think this in his heart, but he could never say it out loud. Otherwise, being punished by Emperor Xin for the crime of disrespect would be impossible.
Thinking of this, Fei Zhong smiled with a smile on his face, cupped his hands towards Di Xin and said:
"I wonder, Your Majesty, if you have a favorite military commander in mind. Can you lead the expedition to assist Marshal Zhang Guifang and defeat Xiqi?"
Which Emperor Xin is willing to come out to meet Fei Zhong, You Hun, etc., and all the civil and military ministers, can be regarded as diligent and caring for the people. There is so much free time to talk nonsense in the Golden Palace. It would be better to take Su Daji and other three big monsters to the harem early to drink and have fun.
Seeing that Fei Zhong was asking himself about such a trivial matter, he felt quite unhappy. Fluttering his sleeves, he said:
"Some small matters, Fei Qing and You Qing, can be decided by themselves. There is no need to submit memorials for everything. You know, I am also very busy."
Having said this, Di Xin couldn't help but let out a long yawn. Fei Zhong was about to say something more, but unexpectedly, Youhun pulled the corner of Fei Zhong's clothes and winked.
Fei Zhong understood immediately. The two traitors had always been working together, being greedy and bending the law, so naturally they had the same mind.
You Hun came close to Fei Zhong's ear and whispered: "That old man has always been on the right side with us. Why not take this opportunity to recommend him as the leading marshal and sacrifice his life on the Xiqi battlefield."
< br>
"In this way, neither gods nor ghosts are aware of it. We can also take the opportunity to warn the court about those who are dissatisfied with us, the so-called loyal and good people. Huh, if you dare to go against us, this is the consequences."
After Long Hun finished speaking, he pointed sideways with his hand. General Lu Xiong was dozing off and standing crookedly in front of His Highness.
This Lu Xiong was already over seventy years old. Because he learned some health-preserving techniques from an unknown stranger when he was young, he lived to the age of seventy.
While still half asleep, I suddenly felt as if I was being targeted by a wild beast. When he opened his eyes, he saw You Hun quickly retracting his fingers.
"No, I don't know what these two traitors are thinking of. Could it be that they want to frame me?"
Sure enough, Fei Zhong and You Hun, the two traitors, took a step forward, raised their hands to Di Xin and said:
"Your Majesty, I already have in my mind the best candidate to unify the army. In terms of qualifications and popularity, he must be the old general Lu Xiong."
When Lu Xiong heard this, he secretly said:
"It's over, it's time to go on stage. I can still bear the beatings of these old bones, how can I bear the beatings of these arrogant warriors? All the armies of the Western Expedition have lost their troops. Isn't it a trap to let my old man be the commander? Kill me? ”
Thinking of this, Lu Xiong gritted his teeth.
"Two traitors won't let me enjoy my old age in peace. I will also drag you to wait and jump towards any fire pit in Xiqi. They plot against me and we will finish it together."
Lu Xiong, Your Highness, hated Fei Zhong and You Hun with all his might. Emperor Xin was on the throne of the Golden Palace and said:
"Fei Qing, You Qing, I follow your two opinions. After Lu Xiong received the order, he quickly went to gather all the troops and horses to conquer Xiqi. There must be no mistakes. Anyone who violates it shall be executed!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lu Xiong quickly stepped out,
"The general has been ordered to defeat Xiqi. It is not difficult to defeat Xiqi. I think Zhang Guifang, Chao Tian and others are just common men who are brave and fierce. The general knows the tactics of war and has experienced military formations for a long time, so he is a good leader of troops. Select. However, we are short of two lieutenants. I hope your Majesty will approve.”
Emperor Xin heard Lu Xiong's words and seemed to be very confident about the crusade against the Xiqi rebels. A few lieutenants are missing, and it's a trivial matter, but still a big wave of hands.
"According to General Yilu's words, I will choose my generals and set off. Withdraw from the court..."
When Emperor Xin and Su Daji entered the harem, Lu Xiong smiled and called out to the two traitors Fei Zhong and You Hun.
"I will invite two doctors to serve as my deputy generals. We must gather our troops and dispatch troops to Xiqi as soon as possible. Remember, military law is ruthless. Otherwise, when the time comes, I will recognize these two doctors, but military law will not."
