The queen mother wants to go against the sky: General, please take your seat

Chapter 996 The Useless Emperor
On the bank of the river not far away, there were bright lights and crowds of people, and from time to time corpses were salvaged from the river by young and strong.Too many people died, and Xinghua Town could not produce so many coffins, so all the corpses were just swept with reeds and temporarily placed in an open space by the river.

Gu Weiren stood in the dark, looking at the other side of the river bank, the chief guard and several guards remained silent, waiting for his general to make a decision.

Several bodyguards from the Tongjia Bodyguard Agency came here at this time, and they touched Xinghua Town inside and out, and when they came to Gu Wei, the oldest bodyguard Zhou whispered to Gu Wei: " No one has really seen the Holy Majesty, but some people in this town have seen the Lord Protector. During the day, when there was a fight here at the head of the bridge, the townspeople heard a child shouting and saw a lady whose legs could not walk. I climbed off the bridge by myself."

A noble lady who can't walk, then this must be Fu's concubine, Gu Wei thought so, and then forgot about this concubine, this is not important at the moment.

"No one dares to walk the road ahead now," added a young bodyguard who was about Gu Wei's age and was also in his early twenties.

"What's the reason?" the head guard asked.

The escort shook his head and said: "I just heard that there is an army coming from the front, but I don't know which one it is."

Gu Wei rubbed his nose, looked at the bodyguards standing in front of him and the bodyguards of the old man's family, General Gu said: "It doesn't matter, let's continue to find Mr. Zhe."

Several guards looked at each other, because there were people from the Tong's Escort Bureau, it was difficult for them to talk at the moment.

"Then shall we leave overnight?" Chief Zhou asked in a hurry.

Looking up at the sky, Gu Wei said: "Take a rest for half an hour, and we will leave here in half an hour."

Chief Zhou nodded in response, pointed to a few bodyguards, and said, "Third Uncle, the little one took this guy to the town to buy some food."

Gu Wei said, "Is there still food for sale in the town right now?"

"Yes," Chief Zhou told Gu Wei not to worry about this matter. They are people who go out all the year round, who don't know where to find food?
The old man left, Gu Wei whispered to his guards: "Everyone go and have a rest."

"General, are we not going after the Duke?" the chief guard asked.

Gu Wei shook his head, "What we have to deal with is the King of Qin, and there is nothing worthy of our attention from Duke Hu."

When he first heard that the little emperor was in the hands of Zou Rongzong, Gu Wei had thought about it, and brought the little emperor back to Prince Rui, wouldn't it be considered a great achievement?But after thinking about it carefully, General Gu figured it out, this little emperor is useless now, when his lady sees Prince Rui and announces the death of the Holy Majesty, this little emperor is a dead person, he will bring a dead person to Prince Rui What?This still requires him to take great risks, isn't his brain kicked by a donkey?

"King Qin is the great enemy," Gu Wei said to his guards with a stern expression, "We must find Mr. Zhe." This guy doesn't look so simple and honest at the moment.

"Yes," several guards answered in a low voice.

Half an hour later, people in Xinghua Town were still busy salvaging the corpses in the river. Gu Wei and his party were already led by Zhou Biaotou, they found a shallow bend where they could cross the river on horseback, and waded away. Apricot Blossom Town.

There was no one else on the official road except himself and his group. Gu Wei unbuttoned his collar to cool himself down, and said to Zhou Biaotou: "Let's go in the direction of Ningzhou City, and we will fight the Tongjia Escort on the way. name."

"Yes," Chief Zhou took the order.

Gu Wei cursed the weather again in a low voice, the sky was gloomy for a day, but the rain didn't come down for a day, and the weather was very stuffy, which made Gu Wei very uncomfortable. The heat was unbearable for him.

At this time, in another military tent in the south of the Yangtze River, the lieutenant general in soft armor spread the map on the ground, stood up and said to the eldest son, "Your Excellency, this is the map of Ningzhou."

Mr. Zhe sat on the chair and saw that the deputy general had laid out the map, but the general sat with his waist bent, his elbows resting on his knees, and just stared at the map on the ground for a long time.

At this time, there were five main generals of the Zhe family army standing in the military tent. Seeing their eldest son staring at the map without making a sound, they also looked at the map.

"It's not easy to fight." After a long while, Mr. Zhe straightened up, leaned on the chair and said: "If we want to fight, we will only win miserably."

Just looking at the map, the five generals also knew that Ningzhou City was not easy to fight. The running water of the river, not to mention the turbulent flow, is also as deep as [-] meters. How can this be a moat?This is a big river.

"It's impossible to build a pontoon bridge to attack the city," said a general.

"It's not impossible," said Mr. Zhe, "it's simply impossible."

"No wonder the King of Qin chose Ningzhou City to stay," said another general, holding his very thick arms.

"It's impossible for the King of Qin not to prepare food in the city," said the long-bearded general who was sitting at the lower left of Mr. Zhe, looking at his eldest son.

"That's right," said Mr. Zhe, "It's not feasible to encircle the city, let alone we may not be able to encircle Ningzhou City."

King Qin also has soldiers and horses in his hands. In terms of numbers, they may still be at a disadvantage!
"Then what should we do?" said the general with arms crossed. It's not easy to fight. It hurts one thousand enemies and eight hundred self-injuries. how to spell?
"Didn't it mean that Yan Dongjin has led his troops to Ningzhou?" A general who had been pacing in the military tent with his hands behind his back stopped at this moment, looked at his eldest son and said, "Wait for the Liaodong Army to arrive? Let's join forces and make another plan?"

Mr. Zhe was still sitting lazily, and his military uniform did not show off his handsome appearance. "Our Young Master Yan," Mr. Zhe smacked his lips and smiled, and said, "Where is he? The situation, who of you know?"

The five generals and one deputy general stopped talking, how did they know?

Young Master Zhe took a sip from the teacup, the tea was steeped very thick and tasted too bitter, but Young Master Zhe liked the taste of this bitter tea very much now.

"Is it possible that the Liaodong Army didn't come to Ningzhou City?" A general walked up to Mr. Zhe and asked in a low voice.

Young Master Zhe said: "I don't know, let's stay here first, Young Master Yan will send someone to look for me, and we'll talk about it when he arrives."

"Even if the Liaodong Army arrives, it won't be easy for them to take down Ningzhou City, right?" the general who had been silent for a while, standing opposite Mr. Zhe across the map, suddenly said.

Young Master Zhe smacked his lips again, and said: "If we want to kill the King of Qin, we may not have to attack the city, just wait and see the situation."
