Chapter 599

Jinling City, Wei palace.

A carrier pigeon broke the peace of the morning. When he learned that the southern expedition was approaching Chuzhou, the king of Wei sent 130000 elite soldiers to support him. However, with the news from the carrier pigeon, his heart suddenly seemed to be soaking in ice water.

"Chuzhou is besieged, and the situation is critical. I hope my father will send a large army to support us. At that time, we will cooperate with each other to annihilate the southern expedition." After reading the letter, the king of Wei's palm trembled slightly.

In the main hall, all the ministers were divided into two groups. All the officials looked at the king of Wei, waiting for his decision.

"His highness Shizi is in prison. At this time, his highness should send a large army to rescue him." Said a civil servant.

As soon as the civil servant's voice fell, a general said: "Your Highness, this is a trap set by the southern expedition. Your highness Shizi has almost taken half of the elite of Jinling City, but now he is trapped in Chuzhou City by the southern expedition. It can be seen that the current situation on the battlefield is not dominant."

"If so, you should go to rescue your highness." The civil servant said in an urgent voice.

The king of Wei looked uncertain. The general he was talking about just now was the garrison captain of Jinling City, LV Dan. Although Xiao Han tried his best to hide what happened in Chuzhou, he could see what happened at once.

The current situation of Chuzhou City is not good.

"Your Highness, it's not appropriate to mobilize the army of Jinling City at this time. The Dengzhou army of Yangzhou is also eyeing. If the troops in Jinling City are empty, they may be taken advantage of by the enemy." Lu said.

Hearing this, the civil servant turned pale and said to the king of Wei, "Your Highness, if your highness is captured, what should you do then? Are we going to see the king of Qi execute his royal highness

The king of Wei had a dignified look, which was really a dilemma. After thinking for a while, he asked the first official at the bottom left: "is there any change in the army of Yangzhou and TongZhou?"

"back to his highness, the defenders of Yangzhou have not been moving, and our Tongzhou Eyeliner has not returned the news of Tongzhou's military movements." The official said.

The king of Wei nodded, and then a fluke suddenly rose in his heart. He said: "the southern expedition led by Lu Fei is the elite of Xiao Ming. If he can defeat the southern expedition, Xiao Ming will surely withdraw, and more than 100000 soldiers in Chuzhou City are the elite of Wei. If he doesn't save them, I'm afraid they will all die in the hands of the southern expedition." Said the king of Wei.

Hearing the words, Lu Pa said in a quick voice: "Your Highness, don't you understand now? Our army is not the opponent of the southern expedition army with firearms at all. No matter how many people go there, it will not help. Moreover, your Highness's Yangzhou massacre has lost the hearts of the people. Even if the army leaves the city, how many soldiers are willing to fight for your highness. Now the only way is to tell King Yan, King Liang and King Zhao about the situation at this time. The three furniture of the truce on that day are all witnesses. Now Xiao Ming tears up the truce The contract is a blatant breach of faith. The four families should fight together to force him to withdraw. Otherwise, Wei will never return to heaven. "

"Bold Lu, you are building up other people's ambition and destroying your prestige. The slaughter of Yangzhou has left the Dengzhou army without food to eat. This proves your Highness's wise decision. You can't slander him." The civil servants accused.

This strategy of strengthening the wall and clearing the wild was put forward by a group of literary ministers.

Lu Kan looked at a group of literati with a sneer. He said, "now the people in the four states all praise the king of Qi and regard us as enemies. Doesn't that mean anything?"

"What do you know as a little captain?"

"That's nonsense."

“……”

The civil servants were in a hurry, and they gave Lu a lot of advice.

The king of Wei was also unhappy. He was just a garrison captain. In the past, he was just a small official in Jinling City. Now he called all the generals to discuss the matter in an emergency. At this time, he was not ashamed.

With a little snort, the king of Wei said, "don't say any more. If the emperor wants to save him, these three vassal Kings also need to get in touch. Let's break up. "

after that, the king of Wei waved the officials away.

Then he ordered another 50000 people from Jinling City to Chuzhou City, and sent Xiao Qi to the palace.

After a while, Xiao Qi with a tired face went to the main hall and gave a simple salute to the king of Wei.

Seeing this, the king of Wei suddenly said with a smile: "my dear nephew, the Japanese uncle is just a slip of the tongue. I hope you don't care. I have raised you for so many years. Don't you understand what I mean? The war is urgent. Uncle Huang hopes you will send envoys to Yandi, Liangdi and Chang'an again, and let the three families come to rescue them. "

Xiao Qi looked at the king of Wei and saw an imperceptible irony in his eyes. He bowed down and said, "Uncle Huang, my nephew didn't care what uncle Huang said that day. At this time of crisis, my nephew is duty bound."

The king of Wei was relieved. Xiao Qi was familiar with the road. It was most appropriate for him to move the soldiers this time, so he said, "it's so good."

"But the king of Yan, the king of Zhao and the king of Liang are all people who move for profit. If you want them to send troops, two million taels of silver is necessary." Xiao Qi said.

The fat face of the king of Wei froze for a moment. Although Jinling's Treasury was abundant, it consumed a lot of time. However, seeing that Wei's land was in danger of overturning, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll let someone take you to the Treasury."Xiao Qi showed a smile and nodded, then he said: "Uncle Huang, now there are wars everywhere and there are lots of robbers on the road. My nephew was almost robbed when he went to Yandi last time, so I asked Uncle Huang to send LvDa to protect my nephew. My nephew heard that LvDa is good at martial arts, and he will protect my nephew."

"It's very simple. Uncle Huang will call LV Dan for you." Said the king of Wei.

Xiao Qi nodded with satisfaction.

On that day, boxes of silver and gold were transported from the Jinling City government treasury to the merchant ships at Jinling wharf. The transportation work lasted for one afternoon. The next morning, Xiao Qi and LV Lian appeared at Jinling wharf. They led 20 merchant ships to Yandi along the river.

After fifty miles, the merchant ship left the Jinling City. At this time, Xiao Qi and LV Da looked at each other. Xiao Qi said, "kill all the people of the king of Wei."

"Yes, your highness." Lu Dan's eyes became cold. With a whistle, the guard on the merchant ship immediately slashed the officer who accompanied Xiao Qi to Yandi.

There was a scream from the merchant ship, followed by the sound of the body being thrown into the water.

All the people were killed. At this time, Lu Da said, "I think your highness still hasn't figured it out?"

"The destruction of Jinling City is just in the past few days. When will it be better if we don't go now?" Xiao Qi's eyes are deep.

"Where are we going now?" Lu said.

After pondering for a while, Xiao Qi said, "Xiao Ming has changed so much because of the teaching of Western missionaries. I'd like to see what's different in the West."
