People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 495 Meeting Qiu Lang again, full of calculations
The rapid sound of horseshoes broke the silence of the morning, and a fast horse rushed to the state government office in a blink of an eye.

The official document was immediately sent to Li Xuan.

"Order Li Xuan, the appeasement envoy of Muzhou, to escort three thousand stones of grain and grass to Jiekou immediately, without any mistakes."

Looking at the official document on the table, Li Xuan stood in the lobby, frowning tightly.

Yu Ze, Qiu Zhenmu, Du Bixing, Wang Bo, Zhou Shen and Peng Wen rushed over immediately.

After they saw the official document, their expressions immediately changed.

Yesterday, they even said that there were two days, how could it be only after one night that the transfer order came.

The so-called escorting food and grass meant to let Li Xuan go directly to the front line.

"Your Majesty, what happened?" Yu Ze couldn't help but clasped his hands and asked.

"Duan Duan is planning for a rainy day. According to the official document, I should have arrived at the intersection tonight. If the front line is unfavorable, I can also arrive at the front line in the shortest time and quickly capture Heilongling without wasting time." Li Xuan My mood has completely calmed down.

He turned his head to look at the crowd and said, "Perhaps last night, the officers and soldiers had fought against Heilongling at night, but the result might be unfavorable!"

Hearing what Li Xuan said, everyone present couldn't help but raise their brows immediately. This is not only a disadvantage.

Maybe the damage to the front line was too great, so Duan Baoxuan hurriedly transferred Li Xuan to the front line.

He didn't want to give Qiu Shen and Huai Jin any extra time.

"Du Canjun, Mr. Zi'an, Captain Zhou, you stay in Muzhou City, Uncle Yu, Brother Qiu, and Qi Guang, follow me to Jiekou." Li Xuan gave the order very methodically in a blink of an eye.

"This subordinate takes orders." Everyone present immediately bowed their hands and took orders.

"Everyone go prepare, brother Zhou stay here for a while." Li Xuan looked up at Zhou Shen, Zhou Shen immediately cupped his hands: "Here."

After the others retreated, Zhou Shen took two steps forward, looked at Li Xuan, and asked, "Does your majesty have any other orders?"

"Brother Zhou, do you still remember the meteorite that fell from the sky?" Li Xuan said suddenly, bringing the matter back to decades ago.

It was a meteorite that fell from the sky that year, which directly destroyed tens of thousands of soldiers of the Tianyin Sect.

During the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, once destroyed 10,000+ enemy troops with a Tianyin meteorite.

But from Li Xuan's point of view, the so-called meteorite from the sky is just a vague statement.

There are no real meteorites that fell from the sky, some are just clever calculations between people's hearts and ghosts.

Zhou Shen's face immediately turned solemn, and he cupped his hands to Li Xuan: "My lord orders."

"Tomorrow, Uncle Yongchang will arrive in Muzhou. After a short rest, you will send her to the street in person. The king will wait for her at Heilongling." Li Xuan looked at Zhou Shen and said, "Move quickly, and you must wait for her." Keep it secret, don't let others know."

"My lord is going to use that 'meteorite' to break through Heilongling?" Zhou Shen couldn't help asking curiously.

Li Xuan waved his hand directly, and said: "It's just a Black Dragon Ridge, where do you need to use this kind of hole card, I want to use it at the end, to capture the queen."

Zhou Shen's expression froze immediately, and he cupped his hands: "The last general takes orders."

……

The mountains are high and the forests are dense, and the mountain birds are singing.

Walking on the narrow mountain path, Li Xuan's expression was much calmer.

Behind him, Wang Bo, Qiu Zhenmu, and a group of Qianniu guards all followed closely.

The group of them had already left the intersection and headed for Heilongling.

It was not Duan Baoxuan who ordered them to go to Heilongling, but Duan Baoxuan himself, who had already gone to Heilongling.

It wasn't until Li Xuan and the others escorted the grain and grass to the intersection that they found out that Duan Baoxuan had personally rushed to Heilongling after the order was issued in the morning.

All because of an official document sent early in the morning.

But no one knew the content of the official document, because those who knew it all rushed to Heilongling.

Jiekou Town has only one school lieutenant guarding the transfer of grain and grass.

The grain and grass from Shezhou and Muzhou were all transferred by Jiekou before being sent to the front line of Heilongling.

Passing through the narrow mountain road, the front opened suddenly, and a few hundred meters away, a camp towered majestically, with countless elite soldiers standing guard.

Li Xuan stopped for a while, looking over the camp.

The rolling mountains ahead seemed endless.

Faintly, two steep mountain roads can be seen, leading to the depths of the mountains.

Then only when you enter the mountain road, you can find that these two mountain roads, one leads to the northeast, and the other leads to the southwest. Not to mention the steeper the mountain, the turning is getting farther and farther, and all of them are going to the northwest .

After a while, everyone had arrived at the gate of the camp. After checking the tokens briefly, Li Xuan brought Yu Ze, Qiu Zhenmu, Qi Guang, another team of Qianniuwei, and a team of Wuzhou soldiers into the camp. among.

After walking a few steps, Li Xuan saw Sima Yao Zhi coming up to meet him, Li Xuan immediately relaxed, then quickly cupped his hands, and asked, "Sima, what happened to make the governor rush over from the street in such a hurry?" Black Dragon Ridge."

"One of Lieutenant Huai's arm was broken while attacking the mountain at night." Yao Zhi explained everything in one sentence.

Yao Zhi said a word, and all the other people present subconsciously looked at Li Xuan.

Li Xuan's face became solemn for a moment. He did think that he would be frustrated when attacking the mountain at night, but he didn't expect that Huaijin would be injured.

Even directly broke an arm.

Captain Zhechong Huaijin is the charge general of the entire army. Once he is injured, the entire army's offensive will be hindered.

Under such circumstances, wouldn't Duan Baoxuan have to come here in person?

Shouldn't Li Xuan be transferred up the mountain immediately?
Li Xuan was determined, and immediately asked, "What about Qiu Changshi?"

Yao Zhi immediately looked disdainful: "It's about returning the general of the Jinwu Guard. As soon as Captain Huai was injured, Qiu Changshi would never go out again. Today, he didn't go out to the barracks even once in the whole day."

While talking, Yao Zhi cupped his hands apologetically when he saw Qiu Zhenmu behind him.

"Sima doesn't need to care." Qiu Zhenmu returned the salute with a wry smile.

What is his uncle's temperament, there are not many people in this world who know better than him.

He is overbearing and domineering, but when he really encounters difficulties, he is too sympathetic.

So in the whole court, there are many people who fear him, but not many people really believe in him.

"Let's go, let's go see General Zhonglang, Shendu Yibie has been gone for several months." Li Xuan strode forward.

In the center of the camp, a tall tent stands, surrounded by countless light and dark outposts.

Li Xuan stood at the door, and Yao Zhi went in first: "Captain, the King of Nanchang has arrived."

"Please!" Duan Baoxuan's thick voice came from the camp.

Li Xuan immediately opened the door curtain, striding towards the center of the tent, without looking at the school captains around, she cupped her hands directly to Duan Baoxuan who was sitting behind the desk in the center: "Xiaguan Muzhou appeasement envoy, Don't drive Li Xuan in Wuzhou, I was ordered to transfer grain and grass, and I have seen the governor!"

"The king of Nanchang is here, and the governor will be much more relaxed." Even though the situation is unfavorable, Duan Baoxuan still does not show any signs of fatigue and is still full of energy. He looked at Li Xuan and said gently: "King of Nanchang, this It's Mr. Shiqiu Langjun, Chief of the Governor's Mansion of Shezhou, I think you all know him."

Li Xuan immediately turned to the left, cupped his hands to Qiu Shenji and said, "This subordinate has seen General Zhonglang."

"27 Lang doesn't have to be like this. You and I are both working outside now, so we need to support each other." Qiu Shenji's tone was unexpectedly gentle.

"This subordinate was instructed by General Zhonglang in Qianniuwei back then, and this is how he has achieved today. How dare he neglect it so easily." Li Xuan's expression was still serious, without the slightest mellowness.

All the people present showed a look of wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.

What kind of person is Qiu Shenji? He is arrogant and strict with his subordinates.

During his tenure as Qianniuwei Zhonglang General, I don't know how many noble children were injured and disabled under his hands, not once or twice.

Even after many people came out of Qiu Shenji's hands, they were desperately unwilling to work in Qianniuwei again.

Of the many people he trained under him, few really became talents.

Even Li Xuan was relying on himself.

However, Qiu Shenji's greatest strength is that he can always find opportunities, defeat the enemy, and make great achievements.

It seems that this is not bad, but in fact, anyone who knows the inside story knows that most of the opponents who were defeated by Qiu Shenji were weak opponents.

The most important thing is that if you cooperate with Qiu Shenji, no matter how much merit you make, in the end, he will be the one who contributes the most.

What Li Xuan said just now was very polite, but everyone could understand what he meant behind the scenes.

Just like Li Xuan's solemn expression, Qiu Shenji's expression was always gentle.

He pointed to the left side. A middle-aged general in silver fish scale armor introduced to Li Xuan, "This is Xue Qianfeng, Captain of Huangshan Mansion Zhechong, the second son of Princess Danyang."

"I have met the Nanchang County King." Xue Qianfeng saluted Li Xuan seriously.

"I met cousin Xue." Li Xuan politely returned the gift to Xue Qianfeng.

Xue Qianfeng is not only the son of Li Xuan's aunt, Princess Danyang, but his father is also the famous hero Xue Wanche.

In the early years of Yonghui, Xue Wanche was beheaded by his eldest grandson Wuji for getting involved in the treason case of Fang Yiai.

Princess Danyang and Xue Wanche's sons were young at the time, so although they were sentenced to exile in Bianzhou, they did not make the trip.

Later, when the eldest grandson Wuji lost power, the treatment of Princess Danyang and several sons was restored.

"These people behind are Captain Guo Yi of Huangshan Prefecture and a group of school captains under them." Qiu Shenji just passed by vaguely.

Li Xuan saluted everyone very solemnly, and everyone quickly returned the salute.

Li Xuan finished his salute, then turned to look to the right, bowed his hands very politely: "I have seen Captain Huai."

"I've seen the prince!" Huai Jin's face was a little pale, his left arm was tightly wrapped with a wooden plank, and it seemed that the injury was not serious. He slightly raised his hand and said to Li Xuan: "The general's body is injured. Injury, etiquette is not good enough, please forgive me, my lord."

"Don't dare, the captain is loyal to the court, how dare the little king accept the gift from the captain." Li Xuan took a step back to avoid Huaijin's etiquette, then looked at the others, cupped his hands and said, "I have seen all the captains. "

Captain Guo Yi of the Kuaiji Mansion had been at the forefront before, so Li Xuan had never met them face to face.

"I've seen the prince!" The two captains of Guo Yi were very polite to Li Xuan, after all, not everyone has such a big background.

While saluting, Li Xuan carefully observed the expressions on everyone's faces. Although almost everyone maintained a superficial harmony, in the dark, some people looked disdainful, while others were sincere and fearful. There were all kinds of things.

Li Xuan turned around, looked at Duan Baoxuan again, bowed his hands solemnly and said: "The subordinate has arrived, I wonder if the governor has other orders, if not, the subordinate will return to Muzhou overnight, and the follow-up food and grass are being transported in a steady stream."

Retreat to advance.

Many people present, these four words popped up in their minds at the same time.
