"The south borders us in Anxi, give it to us, and see how they respond! By the way, let me emphasize that if the King of Chu is willing, I Anxi would like to send the royal family and princesses to the state of Chu for marriage to show my sincerity!"

King Anxi said in a deep voice.

"No!" Immediately several teams of messenger soldiers set off one after another!

Seeing the messengers rushing away, the generals behind King Anxi also frowned, and said in a deep voice: "King, are you going to let the Chu army occupy the north, and we occupy the south?"

"It's best to be like this naturally!" King Anxi took a deep breath, he naturally hoped to be like this, after all, this would also ensure that Anxi would have meat to eat.

"My lord, what if the Chu army disagrees?" A general scratched his head and asked helplessly.

"If you don't agree, let's talk about it. In addition, send someone to Guishuang Kingdom to watch. Since the Chu army wants to attack Guishuang, the first choice is the capital of Guishuang."

King Anxi frowned. He didn't think about what would happen if Chu Jun disagreed, but he had already lowered his posture so much. If he didn't show face, it would be too disgusting!

"No!" The scout general responded immediately.

"Hey, I hope everything goes well, and I don't want to fight against the Chu army!" King Anxi took a deep breath, and the feeling of riding a horse and whipping his whip earlier was gone.

All the generals stopped talking one after another, but they were extremely angry in their hearts. The Chu army was too deceitful, so they directly ordered them not to join forces, or they would fight.

It's totally not paying attention to them.

----

Kaiyuan three years, early spring, late March.

Thirty miles away from Guishuang Kingdom, Xu Shu led his army.

At this moment, a scout rushed over and shouted: "General, the messenger of Anxi, said that there is an urgent message, and I am here to see you!"

"Bring him in!" Xu Shu frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Come here!" Someone urged.

"I am the scout general under the Throne of Rest, and I have met General Chu!" A scout captain said immediately.

It took them a lot of effort to find Xu Shu in this war-torn area, no, it took a long time to find Xu Shu's army.

As the scout captain said, he also took a look at Xu Shu's soldiers and horses, and he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but Wanqi, that's all!
The king of his family led an army of 20, which was twenty times that of Xu Shu's army. Even if they had something more powerful, they should not be unable to fight!
Thinking of this, the scout captain straightened his back a little.

"What's the matter?" Xu Shu frowned, with some doubts, probably related to Guishuang's ownership, after all, he had written to King Anxi earlier.

"General Xu, my king said that he has now led his army to occupy many territories in the south of Guishuang. Many of these territories were originally rested by us,"

The scout captain began to lay the groundwork for the narrative.

"Let's get straight to the point!" Xu Shu raised his hand, too lazy to listen to the scout captain's nonsense.

"The point is, my king wants to carve up Guishuang with the king of Chu. The king of Guishuang will give it to the king of Chu. The north of the king's capital will belong to the Chu army, and the south will belong to us to rest in peace."

"My king said that as long as the king of Chu agrees, he is willing to marry the princesses of the royal family to the king of Chu as concubines. And he is willing to marry the king of Chu to join in the grand event!"

The team rate immediately said the key points.

"Divide Guishuang? Heh, heh, has your king ever received a letter from me?" Xu Shu asked with a chuckle.

"Received, my family's king has great respect for King Chu, and asked me to greet King Chu and Princess Chu on his behalf." The team leader said quickly.

"Now that I have mentioned it, what I said in the letter should be very clear, right? The whole Guishuang has no intention of dividing up Guishuang!"

Xu Shu narrowed his eyes and said a little coldly.

"What the general said is true, but my king has already captured a lot of southern Guishuang. Indeed, most of these were originally laid to rest!"

"And Guishuang is so big, wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate for the Chu army's family to take it all by themselves?" The scout narrowed his eyes slightly and asked with his fists clasped.

"Hehe, the King of Guishuang is in my hands. What's wrong with taking Guishuang all by myself? Go back and tell your king, and say, he thought it through. My lord said it, and the king of Anxi will let it go. In the future, the king of Anxi will become friends." .”

"Conversely, if King Anxi has been like this, then maybe he won't just take Guishuang, but Anxi!"

Xu Shu's eyes were cold, and he said with a cold snort.

"This!" The scout narrowed his eyes, a little annoyed, but he didn't dare to speak nonsense, after all, he couldn't make a decision on this thing.

"The general is too deceitful, isn't he?" The scout captain frowned, clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

"Too much deceit? Hehe, if you go too far, then I'm not here to talk nonsense with you, but to go straight to your peace!"

Xu Shu snorted coldly, with some dissatisfaction.

"General, Chu and Han are thousands of miles away, and you need to cross Guanzhong, Xiliang, the Western Regions, and even Guishuang!"

"It's thousands of miles away, why is it necessary to be so tyrannical at such a long distance? Wouldn't it be better to carve up Guishuang and form a strong support?"

The scout captain spread his hands and said with a questioning expression.

"Hehe, hehehe, so what about thousands of miles? Anyone who offends me in Chu and Han will be punished no matter how far away! King Guishuang invaded the border of our Chu army, he deserves it! Guishuang deserves it!"

Xu Shu laughed loudly.

"General Xu, don't forget that you only brought Wanqi with you on this trip, not to mention whether you can take Guishuang, even if you can take it, how can you be sure that you can take my king?"

"My king has assembled 20 elite soldiers, all of whom are elites in hundreds of battles. The single-wheeled soldiers and horses are twenty times that of your army. How can we fight in one battle?"

The scout captain asked angrily.

"Hehe, if the numbers are useful, why did King Guishuang lose so badly at Yumen Pass?" Xu Shu asked with a sneer.

"This!" The scout captain frowned, and he was a little speechless, he really didn't know how to refute.

"The Yumen Pass captured by King Guishuang was also guarded by me. It has assembled 20 Guishuang elites, plus 25 Western Region miscellaneous soldiers, a total of [-]!"

"However, Guishuang's army caused no more than a hundred casualties to our army, and our army captured and killed Guishuang and the Western Region coalition forces in a total of tens of thousands,"

"Dare to ask, how much better is Anxi's soldiers and horses than Guishuang?" Xu Shu sneered, with a somewhat contemptuous tone.

"This!" The scout captain frowned. He still didn't know how to answer. He even said that this was the first time he heard about the death toll of the Chu army in the battle of Yumen Pass.

He didn't expect that the death toll of the Chu army did not exceed a hundred, but the Guishuang army was disabled in the first battle. If so, wouldn't they be better than Guishuang?

But is it just withdrawn like this?
Thinking of this, the scout captain clenched his fist, with a bit of depression and irritability, and his whole face was full of displeasure.

"Go back and talk to King Anxi, and let him not make mistakes, or he will be the one who is unlucky!" Xu Shu snorted coldly, with a bit of dissatisfaction.

"General Xu, I will tell the truth to my king about this matter, but I also hope that you can focus on the relationship between the two countries!"

"After all, this place is thousands of miles away from Chu State. It is not a good thing to offend a strong enemy in the local area. Friends and allies may be better!"

The scout captain frowned, and immediately said in a deep voice with his fists clasped.

This is the only thing the scout captain can do, and he has tried his best to explain this matter.

"Hehe, of course, my lord wants to make friends with King Anxi, so if you, Anxi, can produce proof that Guishuang has indeed embezzled Anxi's land over the years, I can give up the land on behalf of my lord. "

"This is the greatest sincerity I can do. In addition, not far from here is the royal capital of Guishuang. Why don't you go over with our army and see how our army broke through the enemy's imperial capital!" Xu Shu lightly Smile, showing a bit of self-confidence.

The captain of the scout pondered for a while. It would take half a day at most to travel [-] miles to this place. Maybe he could see the reality of the Chu army here.
The scout captain thought for a while, nodded immediately, and said with a light smile at this moment: "Since the general invites you, I naturally have no reason to refuse."

"Hehe, let's go and have a look!" Xu Shu chuckled, and immediately ordered the army to stand ready!

"Captain, this Xu Shu is too deceitful to be so arrogant. If you want me to tell you, why don't you just tell the king, let's go to war!"

"That's right, these people are so insignificant that they want to occupy our things! It should be said that they want to occupy all of Guishuang, they are simply not human!"

"Captain, why don't we spy more information?"

"Captain, don't we go back and report first?"

"Okay, don't talk about it, I know it well, this Chu army is not simple, let's follow and see how they attack Guishuang Kingdom,"

"If the Chu army's methods are very strong, then we will find a way to cease the war and withdraw from this place. If their methods of fighting Guishuang are mediocre, then we will try!"

The captain of the scout pondered for a while, and said what was in his heart. He had planned this way, at least it would depend on the Chu army.

If the Chu army is really invincible, as Xu Shu said just now, then naturally there is no need to continue to offend. After all, with a battle loss of 10,000+ per [-] men, it is enough to attack any country.
If they were not so exaggerated in fighting Guishuang, then they would try their best to fight, and maybe they would succeed.

"The captain is right. Let's take a look at the strength of the Chu army. There is an old saying in Chu and Han. It's called knowing yourself and knowing the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. We must understand it clearly!"

Several small team members also nodded to express their approval, and they were ready to follow the Chu army to see how the Chu army captured Guishuang King's Capital.

Xu Shu rode his horse, looked at the corpses on the roads on both sides and the rickety people, and couldn't help frowning. It stands to reason that the imperial capital has a large population and is very rich.

Who would have thought that the imperial capital would be so desolate, not much different from the frontier.

As for along the way, you can vaguely see a lot of wild dogs, wild wolves and so on. These animals that are supposed to be active at night are not afraid of people at the moment, and some of them follow behind the people who can still walk.
There are also some who simply start to eat some carrion in the surrounding area. These are the people who starved to death, especially when the spring is full of spring and it is getting warmer and warmer. The whole land is full of stinky smell.

"Hehe, this is the imperial capital of Guishuang?" Xu Shu sneered. The defenders in this place are probably full of wine bags and rice bags, and there is no way they are elite.

"Hey, back when King Guishuang was still here, this place was relatively prosperous. I didn't expect that it has only been half a year, and it has become like this!"

Li Dahammer lamented that this place was decaying a little too quickly.

"It probably has something to do with the many sons fighting for the imperial power. After all, the people suffer the most after all the exploitation and struggles," Xu Shu sighed. This place really made him unacceptable.

But in retrospect, how similar is Luoyang back then to this place?Luoyang was burned down by Dong Zhuo back then. As for Chang'an, later generations even paid 50 yuan for a piece of rice.
It can only be said that the common people in prosperous times can be regarded as a piece of grass, but in troubled times, the common people are not as good as a single grass, cheaper than ants!

Thinking of this, Xu Shu shook his head helplessly.

"Send the order, the whole army is on alert, this place has entered the hinterland of Guishuang, and the new King of Guishuang will know about it!" Xu Shu sent the order,
Immediately, tens of thousands of cavalry made expressions of fighting at any time.

-

At the same time, in the imperial capital of Guishuang.

Compared with the depression and desolation outside the city, Guishuang City is a completely different scene, with secrets, pleasure, and singing and dancing everywhere.
However, there are some high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the capital, and there are no ordinary people. Except for a few domestic slaves and ordinary people doing cheap jobs, there are nothing else in the streets and alleys.

The entire city is full of pleasure.

As for the imperial capital, that Ling Huang was playing with a group of concubines. These concubines belonged to the royal family of Guishuang, or they were the wives of the princes below.
And he is just a general with a foreign surname.

It's just that he has taken power and completely controlled this place. He is the new king here, at least the new king in terms of power.

As for the child outside the door, a few years old, that is Guishuang's nominal new king. To put it bluntly, he is a puppet, just like Liu Xie back then.

At this moment, Ling Huang hugged one of the concubines, lifted the hem of her skirt, followed by a meal, but these concubines could only accept it, because those who did not accept it were all punished.

This palace of chaos and chaos has already killed countless princesses, some were insulted to death, and some were directly killed by disobedience.

All in all, he's a pervert.

He didn't want to pacify the whole of Guishuang, but enjoyed himself in the imperial capital all day long, as did his soldiers and horses, all enjoying themselves.

All I can say is that things have changed here.

At this moment, a general came running wildly, with nervousness on his face, and shouted in panic outside the door: "King, something happened, something happened!"

The voice resounded in the hall,
Ling Huang narrowed his eyes, a little impatient, but he also left the princess behind, then strode to the gate of the palace, and said in a deep voice, "What happened?"

"Chu army, the Chu army is here, and they have already reached dozens of miles outside the city. At most one hour, the Chu army will be able to come to the city!"

The general said with fear, nervousness, and trembling.

"What did you say? Chu army? How could the Chu army come? Didn't he say that he wants to pacify the Western Regions and expand the land to the east? Won't he go west?"

Ling Huang frowned sullenly, with a bit of irritability, anger, and even an atmosphere.

What does Chu Jun represent?It represents invincibility, especially among the soldiers who saw that battle, none of them dared to confront the Chu army head-on.

Look out for the kind!

When the Chu army came to kill him, wouldn't his good days be over!
"How many people are here?" Ling Huang frowned and asked.

"The scouts checked the news and said that the Chu army has about [-] people, all of them are cavalry, and it should be from the Qing army!" The lieutenant general replied.
