Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 1099 Jiangzuo Langya
"How could there be a conflict?" King Huainan quickly calmed down and asked.

"We have to wait for detailed information to be sent before we can know about this," King Chu frowned, showing a solemn expression, "However, it is very likely that the Xuanjia Army misunderstood our people as Huns spies. There are still a lot of scattered Xiongnu soldiers and horses in Bingzhou, so it is normal to make a mistake."

As soon as they said this, the two clan members couldn't help but recall their surprise when they heard the news before.

That's the Xiongnu country!
In the past, the Xiongnu Kingdom was a major concern for the Han Dynasty. Even when the whole world was not at war, the Xiongnu Kingdom was particularly arrogant, independent from outsiders, and formed its own system.

After a few years, the Huns still existed, but there were signs of chaos in their new Han world.

As a result, such a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh suddenly fell apart, so fast and so thorough that the two clans almost thought it was fake news when they heard it for the first time, and people repeatedly confirmed it.

But when the confirmed information was reported back, it was said that even the Hun prince had been captured, and the dragon body of the late emperor had been taken back by Youzhou soldiers.

This news made the two kings feel shocked, thankful, and frightened at the same time. They had so many mixed feelings in their hearts that it was hard to describe them all.

However, after repeated precipitation, these complex thoughts eventually lost to the instinct of politicians fighting for power, causing them to start thinking about the Xuanjia Army again.

But in the end, he was still frightened by the fighting power of the Xuanjia Army, so he planned to take advantage first, and then took advantage of the collapse of the Xiongnu Kingdom to send an army northward, hoping to get back the land occupied by the Xiongnu in Sizhou first, and then wait for an opportunity. Occupy one or two counties south of Bingzhou.While replenishing strength, it also serves as an outpost.

If possible, they also want to negotiate with Chen Zhi to see if they can get the other party to give up Bingzhou. After all, Chen Zhi's jurisdiction is Youzhou in name.

However, considering that Chen Zhi still had the title of General of the Northern Conquest, the two kings temporarily tolerated it and wanted to take it step by step. But now that they had received the news, the Huainan King was a little hesitant.

"If even one or two scouts can be misunderstood, then wouldn't it be bad if we sent an army and misunderstandings also arise?"

King Huainan's words made King Chu have to think about it. Finally, he shook his head and said: "There is no need to worry so much. Maybe this is just a misunderstanding. After all, our communication with Youzhou has been cut off for a while. It is not unexpected that such a situation would occur, but the soldiers and horses we sent are clearly under the banner of the imperial court, and the Youzhou Xuanjia Army should not be unfamiliar with them."

"Just be afraid..." King Huainan was still hesitant. He said one sentence, but stopped midway, but the worry in his words was very clear to King Chu.

"No," King Chu still shook his head, but his tone was a little firmer, as if to increase his persuasion, but more like to convince himself, "General Zhengbei's sudden dispatch of troops is to avenge the late emperor, which shows that He loves the imperial court, and as long as we are still the imperial court, General Zhengbei will never disobey."

Hearing this, King Huainan could only nod.

At this time, King Chu took another book sent by a subordinate who had just come over, and frowned: "The most worrying thing now is Jiangzuo."

"What's wrong?" King Huainan looked at it and knew it was the latest news about Jiang Zuo.

The King of Chu said: "I asked Yu Liang to go to Jiangzuo as an envoy before, but there was no news. Do you still remember?"

King Huainan nodded and said: "Yes, he recommended himself for this matter. Didn't you and I talk about it before? It was supposed to be a war in the Central Plains, so that the carriages and horses were full." Angry, "You and I have been fooled by this person. I thought he hadn't arrived in Jiangzuo yet. Now I know that this person has become an official in Jiangzuo! He is still the censor. He is so calculating and majestic!" "

After hearing this, King Huainan also showed anger: "How dare Yu Liang do this? This is really unreasonable!"

"Not only that," the King of Chu sneered, "it seems that this person is not optimistic about the orthodox court like us, and instead went to the Langya King of Jiangzuo. He just didn't know that when they knew that the Xiongnu had collapsed, Liu Cong and Liu All the cans have been captured, I don’t know what they think.”

"That's right!" King Huainan also cheered up, "I can also guess what people like Yu Liang are thinking. They just feel that the situation in the north has become unmanageable. The power of Shi Le and the Xiongnu is expanding rapidly, and it is difficult for us to use it. They But I didn’t expect that the sudden rise of the Xuanjia Army would make the situation completely different!”

King Chu nodded, and then said coldly: "When the news reaches Jiangzuo, it will be time for these people to show their behavior. Maybe those who refused to come to pay homage to the new king this time will rush over again."

Because of the distance, the two kings in Guanzhong could quickly get news about Bingzhou, but it would take some time for these news to reach Jiangzuo and Jiangnan.

However, with the overwhelming offensive of the Xuanjia Army, all the forces in the world have already focused their attention. Even though they are located in the south of the Yangtze River, this part of the Jiangzuo family deliberately speeded up the transmission of news about Bingzhou.

Therefore, on the tenth day after the fall of Jinyang, the latest news about Bingzhou and the north spread to Jiangzuo one after another, causing an uproar.

Yangzhou, Danyang County, Langya Palace.

Langya King Liu Gai, who already had the outline and appearance of a young man, sat at the head, and a group of people gathered under him.

Some of them were old acquaintances of Chen Zhi, such as Zhang Chu, the former governor of Xuzhou, and Yu Liang, who had recently been sent to Jiangzuo as an envoy, but ended up staying behind under the pretext of supervision.

In addition, there are several figures standing in front. These people are the heads of prominent families in Jiangzuo, and are the patriarchs or talkers of several major surnames such as Lu, Zhou, Zhang, Zhu, and Gu.

However, there were still several people standing in front of him. The leader was wearing a military uniform, carrying a long sword, and looked arrogant.

Among the entire mansion and houses, this person is the only one carrying a sword.

At this moment, the man was frowning and saying: "This matter is really strange. The Xiongnu's national power is not weak, and its soldiers and horses are considered to be the strongest in the north. How could they capture the capital so quickly?" ?”

"General Wang, you should be more careful with your words," suddenly a tall man spoke. This man had a long beard and looked quite immortal. He was a top figure in the Gu family in Wu, named Gu Rong. , "The Xiongnu puppet country stole the territory of the Han Dynasty and occupied Jinyang, but it was not their capital."

"I, Wang Dun, have always been like this in my words and deeds." The man known as General Wang turned his head and glanced at it, and said coldly, "After Bingzhou was occupied by the Huns, it was not taken back for several years, and Jinyang was even run by them. , why is it not counted as the capital? What’s the point of saying these hypocritical words?”
