Kou Zhong frowned and thought hard: Bu Tianzhi might be able to help us with this. At least he can go back to Baling to investigate Sister Su's situation so that we can think of a solution based on the intelligence.

Xu Ziling raised his head and said: This is the only thing that can be done among the options. It is best if we can catch Xiangyushan's biggest weakness and force him to let go of his own accord.

Kou Zhong put his hand on his shoulder and whispered: After dealing with Jiangdu, I will go back to Baling with you. All the treasures of Duke Yang have been put aside. What can be more important than Sister Su?

Xu Ziling said in astonishment: How can this be done? Unless you no longer want to compete for the world, then every second counts.

Kou Zhong sat down with a wry smile and said: Sister Su is our only relative in this world now. If something happens to her, I will never be able to be happy and what's the point of fighting for the world.

Xu Ziling said: "It only takes ten days to go west to Baling from Jiangdu. I'm afraid Xiao Mian won't let us take Sister Su away. This matter must be discussed in detail. It's night! Go back to your room and rest!"

※※※

The next day, Yanshi was still filled with the atmosphere of a great victory, and the generals mobilized their troops to prepare for the next battle. The siege equipment was arranged on the road leading to the south gate, ready to leave the city and cross the river to the other side to be deployed to attack Luokou.

attitude.

Since the waterway was blocked by enemy fortifications, Route 6 became the only feasible way to attack Luokou.

At noon, two warships arrived from Dongdu. Another general, Zhang Zhenzhou, came on Wang Shichong's order to reward the three armies for the victory and brought a thousand reinforcements.

Zhang Zhenzhou then went into a secret room with Yang Gongqing to talk for an entire hour before calling Kou Zhong in but leaving Wang Xuanshu alone.

The two people looked surprisingly solemn.

Kou Zhong sat down and asked in surprise: What happened to give Yang Tong and Dugu Feng the upper hand? Zhang Zhenzhou snorted coldly: Dugu Feng immediately escaped from the Eastern Capital after learning about Li Mi's defeat. We broke into the palace and captured Yuan Wendu.

, Luda and Yang Tongdong were completely cut off on the spot, and they were completely in our hands.

Kou Zhong was puzzled and asked: Why do the two generals look so ugly?

Yang Gongqing said in a deep voice: Master Shangshu is about to force Yang Tong to abdicate and prepare to proclaim himself emperor.

Zhang Zhenzhou interfaced and said: Duke Zheng wants to use Zheng as the title of his country and to ennoble his relatives. As far as I know, Xuanying will be the crown prince and Xuan Shu will be the king of Han and Wang Honglie will be the king of Wei. Wang Xingben will be the king of Jing and Wang Taizhen will be the king of Song. Wang Shiyun will be the king of Qi.

.And the two of us, Lang Feng, and Song Mengqiu were just four town generals who were posted to guard the four major cities outside the Eastern Capital.

Kou Zhong suddenly realized.

After all, Wang Shichong was never a man of great power. His relatives were eager to gain power once he gained power. How could he convince the generals who worked for him through life and death? The appointment of private individuals was actually the fatal reason for Wang Shichong's future defeat.

Zhang Zhenzhou said sternly: "This matter has not yet been implemented. If it is so true, it makes people feel sad. In fact, the reason why this battle was able to defeat Li Mi's record was the military advisor of the Kou army who had the greatest contribution, but your Excellency did not say a word about this and even ordered me to secretly monitor the military advisor."

Kou Zhong said gratefully: It is rare for two generals to be so sincere to me. However, the most important thing at the moment is to completely eradicate the Wagang Army. The rest can be dealt with in the future.

Zhang Zhenzhou and Yang Gongqing also knew that it was not advisable to discuss the arrangement of power and positions for a while in this urgent situation and then go their separate ways.

Kou Zhong went back to the backyard to find Xu Ziling, who was talking with Tu Shufang in the pavilion.

Seeing Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling said: I have told Uncle Fang about Sister Su, hoping that he can make the eldest sister join Sister Su after we rescue Sister Su's mother and son.

Uncle Tu Fang sighed and said: It is heartbreaking to meet unkind people. Now I have a general understanding of the situation. Sister, I can take care of it. Even if you come out, you won’t believe that I have been doing sheepskin trading in order to raise military pay for the past few years.

Got very big.

Kou Zhong sat down and said: With Uncle Fang and Brother Xuan helping her, her business will naturally get bigger and bigger!

Uncle Tu Fang said: That’s why you won’t believe that this business was all created by her. Although it was the funds left by Mr. Zhai and used by his own people, if she hadn’t been able to see every purchase and sale,

You can never make as much money as you do now.

The two of them were shocked to think that Zhai Jiao actually knew how to do business.

Uncle Tu Fang continued: In addition to avenging Mr. Zhai, all her energy is devoted to business. Nowadays, in addition to having business acumen, doing business also depends on whether the fist is strong enough. So I think her sheepskin business is very tight.

As long as I give her a few words of advice, she will definitely agree to wait patiently for Susu to come and get together.

Only then did they understand what Zhai Jiao wanted to do.

Uncle Tu Fang said: Xuanyong is a rare general, talented and extremely intelligent. If you want to conquer the world, he can be your right and left-hand man.

Kou Zhong complained to Xu Ziling in embarrassment: You even came out here!

Uncle Tu Fang said displeasedly: "What do you have to hide from me? A true man must be brave enough to do what others say. You have such great ambitions. It's too late for Uncle Fang to be happy for you!"

After a pause, he said with a straight face: Li Mi, since the big tree fell, the Wagang Army will naturally fall into pieces. With my sister's relationship and your current momentum in the arena, Kou Zhong, I and Yong will work hard for you to recruit an elite group of Wagang Army.

Recruiting the younger generation as your target will certainly be a great help to your future career. There is no problem in terms of money and salary.

Kou Zhong said happily: Thank you Uncle Fang for your support.

Uncle Tu Fang exclaimed: "I ran away in a hurry that day with my sister. I thought there was no hope of revenge, but in the blink of an eye, Li Mi was about to be executed. Nothing in this world is impossible. Uncle Fang has high expectations for you."

Kou Zhong then asked: Haven't you always been attached to Gu Yingtai's banner in Liping County? What about this person?

Tu Shufang shook his head and said: This person has a close relationship with Dou Jiande. Although he is not at odds with Li Mi, it is difficult to persuade him to join you and ignore him.

Footsteps sounded.

The three of them looked around and saw the beautiful and charming maid Chu Chu timidly coming to the three of them and peeking at Kou Zhong's beautiful eyes with an expression of joy that could not be concealed.

Kou Zhong was surprised and said: "Why didn't I know when Chu Chu came?"

Chu Chu said a blessing: "Chu Chu just arrived here this morning to serve sister Kou. How could you know if you were so busy?"

He also asked Uncle Butcher Fang Zhaijiao to see him.

Xu Ziling knowingly left with Tu Shufang so that they could have a chance to face each other alone.
