This prince is going to heaven

Chapter 767
the other side.

In the Southern Chu army camp, Lu Zhiyong said to Mu Xiqiu with an excited face: "Your Majesty's plan is really powerful. According to the reports from the scouts, Zhou Jun has been disturbed all night and now he seems a little depressed. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid they will collapse."

The other generals sitting here are also full of joy. Since the battle yesterday, everyone has already experienced the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Black Cavalry Battalion. To be honest, these generals no longer have the confidence to fight them head-on. They are all carefully selected elites, but after all, they are still far behind the opponent in a head-on confrontation.

But now His Majesty has found a different way, refusing to fight head-on with the opponent, but adopting a strategy of constantly harassing the opponent, so that the opponent cannot rest.

Just like Lu Zhiyong said, as long as Zhou Jun hangs around during the day and keeps harassing the other party at night, it doesn't take long at all, it only takes two or three days, and the soldiers of the Black Cavalry Battalion will naturally be defeated!
It's just that Mu Xiqiu shook his head slightly after hearing his words, and said: "It's good to use this kind of strategy for a while, but if you use it later, there may be accidents!"

Lu Zhiyong froze in place immediately, and asked in surprise, "Your Majesty, why is this?"

Mu Xiqiu sighed, "Do you really think that Wen Ruyan is just a drunkard?"

Lu Zhiyong was at a loss for words.

Is Wen Ruyan a fool? They naturally know very well that a person who can kill two of their armies one after another will be a fool?What a joke!
Lu Zhiyong thought for a long time, and said in a puzzled way: "Your Majesty, no matter how powerful Wen Ruyan is, there is no way to solve your plan. They are short of soldiers and horses. How will they deal with our next harassment?"

Mu Xiqiu sneered, and said, "According to what you said, should we continue to harass that Zhou Jun tonight?"

Lu Zhiyong returned directly: "Naturally."

"So what if Wen Ruyan is prepared tonight? Wouldn't it make our soldiers sacrifice in vain?"

"Did they not rest all night?" Lu Zhiyong objected.

Mu Xiqiu snorted immediately and said, "Then how can you be sure whether Wen Ruyan's army is at rest? If the other party put on such an appearance on purpose, and all the soldiers of the Black Cavalry Battalion are waiting for us in the tent, So what?"

All the generals suddenly fell into silence.

In fact, the reason is very simple. Last night, Mu Xiqiu was able to grasp Wen Ruyan's psychology, but the second night was different. It was like rock-paper-scissors. He had no way to confirm Wen Ruyan's end Think again.

Under normal circumstances, if the Zhou army was so affected on the first night, Wen Ruyan would naturally be fully on guard on the second night to prevent them from repeating their old tricks. Under such circumstances, Mu Xiqiu should naturally let the soldiers under his command Take a rest and attack again in the middle of the night, but what if Wen Ruyan does the opposite?In the first half of the night, the soldiers of the Black Riding Battalion were allowed to rest, but in the second half of the night, they became more alert, so what?

Wen Ruyan is not an ordinary person, how can he deal with such a person in an ordinary way?

The falsehood on his own side annoys him, and he can also make falsehoods so that he can't figure out his plan!
On the first night, Mu Xiqiu could almost guess what Wen Ruyan was thinking. Even if he guessed wrong, it wouldn't affect them. Anyway, they didn't make any moves in the second half of the night, but after a night of confrontation, Who can be sure what Wen Ruyan is thinking now?

Without complete assurance, Mu Xiqiu would naturally not do such a reckless thing.

After thinking for a long time, Lu Zhiyong said: "Your Majesty, if you say so, what should we do next?"

A strange smile appeared on Mu Xiqiu's face at that moment, and he said directly: "I plan to fight them again!"

"what?"

All the generals suddenly turned pale with fright!
That afternoon.

Wen Ruyan intercepted Mu Xiqiu again, and the armies of both sides fought again, but the Southern Chu soldiers still fled in panic and retreated in defeat.

Wen Ruyan knew very well that if he didn't keep up with the other party at this moment, he might suffer from the situation of last night. At this moment, he didn't care about thinking so much, and directly led the army to catch up.

en route.

Wen Ruyan directed to Ji Ning and said, "Rush to Chuanzhou City now, let Xie Shan and Ye Linxue lead troops to support!"

After yesterday's battle, Wen Ruyan has a very thorough understanding of the current situation. Although the soldiers of the Black Cavalry Battalion under his command are strong in fighting power, they are not strong enough. If you choose to keep retreating, you have nothing to do with him!
If it goes on for a long time, even the most powerful soldiers of the Black Cavalry Battalion will not be able to hold on.

Ji Ning thought for a while and nodded, then he told Ji Yuan and Ji Qiu: "You two must protect His Highness, remember clearly, if something happens to His Highness, you two should not come back!"

Ji Yuan sneered at him at the time and said, "It's up to you to arrange this? I naturally know how to protect His Highness. Do you think you are the only one who knows how to care for His Highness? Don't worry, even if I risk my life, I will ensure that His Highness is safe and sound." of!"

Ji Qiu, who has always been taciturn, also said coldly: "I will naturally protect Your Highness."

Ji Ning took a deep look at the two of them, then turned and left.

In fact, it goes without saying that Ji Ning, Ji Yuan and Ji Qiu would naturally do the same. They were both abandoned by their parents since they were young, and they were brought back to Prince Jing's mansion by Wen Ruyan when they could remember, for so many years Since then, Wen Ruyan has never treated them badly in terms of food and clothing, and has also taught them a lot of skills.

On the surface, they appear to be the guards of Prince Jing's Mansion, but in fact they are not. Wen Ruyan has never regarded them as servants. Wen Ruyan is like brothers and fathers to this group of teenagers surnamed Ji. Who hasn't? A grateful heart?

This is why Ji Yuan and Ji Qiu's attitude towards Ji Ning is not very good!
Are you still talking nonsense?

It's just that when they said this, Wen Ruyan had a bad feeling in his heart. To be honest, Wen Ruyan had read many novels in his previous life, so he always felt that the scene before him was somewhat familiar.

Whenever someone makes such a promise, I'm afraid something will be wrong in the next situation!

On that day, Wen Ruyan once again led his army to catch up with the Southern Chu army. Mu Xiqiu was still the same as the previous two times. He didn't fight him head-on at all, but chose to retreat directly!

That night.

Mu Xiqiu did not order to disturb Wen Ruyan's subordinates, and just as he imagined, Wen Ruyan did not take precautions, but ordered the soldiers of the Black Cavalry Battalion to rest.

At dawn, the Southern Chu army attacked, but was directly blocked by the soldiers of the Black Cavalry Battalion. The battle, which was originally thunderous and rainy, fell into a fierce battle in an instant. The Southern Chu soldiers suffered heavy losses and retreated in panic!

After this battle, the fight between Wen Ruyan and Mu Xiqiu fell into a stalemate again.

Yanjing City.

Royal Palace.

That night, the Empress received a letter from Lord Chen Ling. After reading the letter, she criticized it and threw it into the brazier. Watching the letter gradually turn into ashes, the Empress frowned.

"Go, pass on the order of the palace, order the imperial dining room to prepare some good wine and food, and then invite His Majesty to come and talk!"

The maid who was close to her gave her a blessing, and Yingying said: "Yes."

At the same time, Emperor Wen Ruyan also received a report from Chen Ling. Chen Ling said in the letter that Southern Chu was defeated. His Highness Wen Ruyan has personally led troops into Minchuan to capture the new emperor of Southern Chu alive. Now that the crisis in Sichuan and Shu has been resolved, only [-] of Southern Chu's [-] soldiers left Sichuan and Shu in a panic. The General of Southern Chu, Sima Zongheng, was included in the establishment. Sima Zongheng had always been eyeing Anyang Mansion, but now that his troops were stronger than ever, he launched an attack on Anyang Mansion, and the [-] troops of Anyang Mansion were taken away by His Royal Highness Prince Jing. [-], but now there are only [-] left, and most of them are the defeated generals of Pingyang Pass. Facing such a tiger and wolf army, Anyang Mansion is already in jeopardy!
In the letter, Chen Ling asked for an order to take the soldiers from Sichuan and Shu to Anyang Mansion to relieve the siege, and asked the emperor to agree.

Logically speaking, Wen Ruyu should have been happy to hear about the great victory in Sichuan and Shu, but for some reason, when he received this report, he suddenly felt something was wrong!

In fact, there is nothing wrong with what Chen Ling said in the report. Wen Ruyu naturally knows who the new emperor of Southern Chu Mu Xiqiu is. Such a person suddenly led troops into Minchuan when he was retreating. It's normal to follow him in without knowing what he's going to do, after all, Wen Ruyan is the only one in Chuanzhou City who can confront Mu Xiqiu head-on without losing the wind.

And Wen Ruyan is the commander-in-chief of the three armies. Now he led troops into Minchuan to pursue Mu Xiqiu. The top general in Chuanzhou City is Chen Ling. It is normal for Chen Ling to report all the battle reports.

It's just that what is the relationship between Chen Ling and Wen Ruyan? Wen Ruyu is very clear. Wen Ruyan knows that Chen Ling is always thinking about how to target him. How can he lead troops into Minchuan at this juncture?

Could it be that he wasn't worried at all that Chen Ling would be a hindrance from behind?
This is impossible.

Wen Ruyu knew his second brother very well, and he knew exactly who Wen Ruyan was. How could such a cautious person really have such a big heart?
Or is he sure that he will definitely defeat Mu Xiqiu in that land of Minchuan?
Wen Ruyu still couldn't understand this point. Even at night, his whole body was frowning, not daring to agree to Chen Ling's request easily!
When the night was garrisoned.

While Wen Ruyu was still thinking about this matter, suddenly a court lady came to the Zhengde Hall, saying that the empress had hosted a banquet in the bedroom and wanted to invite the emperor to come and have a talk.

To be reasonable, although Wen Ruyu is very dissatisfied with Chen Ling, the Duke of Zhen, she has a deep affection for the current empress.It has been a long time since he ascended the throne, but he has not seen other concubines in the harem.

Wen Ruyu felt that she was very much like the first emperor, a woman was enough for her whole life.

So at this moment when he heard the maid coming to report, he said at that time: "I know, I'll be there in a while!"

After half an hour.

Wen Ruyu drove to the queen's bedroom, and the queen Chen Min'er went out to greet her in person. In late autumn, Wen Ruyu saw Chen Min'er shivering outside the bedroom in a thin palace attire, and a trace of worry appeared on her face

He immediately got down from his seat and rushed forward to grab Chen Miner's hand and said, "It's cold, and you're wearing such thin clothes, why are you standing here? What if you catch the wind and cold?"

Chen Min'er smiled and said: "The concubine is naturally healthy, His Majesty has promised the concubine to come over, if the concubine doesn't greet her personally, wouldn't it be the concubine's fault?"

Wen Ruyu gave her a reproachful look, then dragged her directly into her bedroom.

The dishes prepared by the imperial dining room were brought up like flowing water. Sitting beside Wen Ruyan, Chen Min'er put the dishes on the plate in front of Wen Ruyu, and said, "Your Majesty, this dish is my concubine's favorite, please also Taste it."

Wen Ruyu directly took back the screen and dismissed all the eunuchs and maids. After they retreated, she looked at Chen Min'er dotingly and said, "Why do you and my husband and wife have to be so alien? I'm not used to hearing you talk like this. "

Chen Min'er laughed out loud at that time, and then said directly with a big grin: "This is not the Prince's Mansion, and now you are the current prince, and I am the current empress, so naturally I can't talk and act like I used to in the Prince's Mansion! "

Wen Ruyu couldn't help scratching her nose and said with a smile: "No matter where you are, my feelings for you will never change, don't do such tricky things again in the future, or you make me feel like you are now. easy."

Chen Min'er said with a smile: "The concubine obeys the order."

"Look at you, it's here again, isn't it?"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about the concubine, come, you and I, husband and wife, have a drink together."

Wen Ruyu raised his glass and briefly touched Chen Min'er, then drank it straight down.

This night, Wen Ruyu didn't know how much wine Chen Min'er drank. At the end, Wen Ruyu was talking a little too much, and her bright eyes were not as clear as before, and she was already shaking slightly while sitting there.

During the dinner, Wen Ruyu complained a lot to Chen Miner, and Chen Miner always laughed and comforted him non-stop.

At the end, Chen Min'er suddenly said: "Your Majesty, how is the situation now? Second brother, as the commander of the three armies, has he ever displayed the prestige of my Great Zhou?"

Hearing what she said, Wen Ruyu suddenly became excited. He staggered up from the seat and said proudly: "Are you kidding, who is Ruyan! It's just Nanchu, how could it be possible?" It's his opponent!"

After saying this, Wen Ruyu drank the wine glass again, and then continued: "I tell you, Chen Ling, Lord Zhen Guo, has sent a battle report today, and the crisis in the land of Sichuan and Sichuan has been resolved! The new emperor of Southern Chu What's the use of Mu Xiqiu claiming to be a monster? Didn't he get chased by Ruyan all the way to Minchuan?"

"Second brother is so powerful?"

Wen Ruyu staggered and said: "You think so, let me tell you, our second younger brother used to be inconspicuous, but when it comes to the talent in his belly, even my elder brother is absolutely inferior Yes! With him here, I will live a hundred years without any worries!"

Chen Min'er laughed dryly and said, "Your Majesty, it should be because of you that I, Da Zhou, have a hundred years of worry-free life, right?"

"Haha!" Wen Ruyu looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, and said, "You're right, I shouldn't underestimate myself! I am the emperor, he is the prince, and Dazhou has my two brothers around, how can it be destroyed?"
