Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    From Huancheng to Jiangling, it is more than a thousand miles.  In order to rush on the road, Wang Rong ordered the sailors on the ship to divide into three groups and travel day and night against the current. It took nearly six days to reach Jiangling City.

    Jiangling is a big city. It has been the core city of Jingxiang since the Yingdu period, and it is also the core city of the entire middle reaches of the Yangtze River.  Among the cities in the world, apart from the two capitals, Chengdu, Jiangdu and Taiyuan can be compared with them.

    Jiangling is the hometown of the Xiao family and has been in business for over a hundred years.

    When Yang Daosheng attacked Nanjun, the people of Jiangling opened their doors to welcome him. Dou Kang's younger brother, Dou Qing, the prefect of Nanjun, was beheaded by a wealthy family in the city and gave it to Xiao Mian.

    This shows the influence of the Xiao family in Jiangling.

    After Xiao Mian ascended the throne, in order to take back the military power from the generals, he thought of a move to "stop the army and work on farming".  On the pretext that the world was at peace, and under the pretext of recuperation, he asked the generals to disband the army and let the soldiers go home to farm.

    Although the purpose of this move was to regain power, it objectively promoted the prosperity of the Nanjun area.  After all, if there are more young people in a place, it will naturally develop.

    When Wang Rong arrived at Jiangling City, he was a little surprised to see that the city was extremely prosperous, with crowds of people and endless hawking. There was no scene of troubled times at all.

    Although Wang Rong came alone, he was not alone in Jiangling.

    When Wang Rong learned that Princess Ancheng Lin Zhi and Zhang Suishang were in Jiangling City, he prepared to go and meet them.  After all, with his identity and status, he would definitely occupy a dominant position in front of the two of them, and he, the fake messenger, would become the real messenger.

    As for Wang Rong's identity, he is not worried. Lin Zhi has been in Jiangling for almost a month, so he must not know Yuzhang's situation, nor his identity.

    As expected by Wang Rong, Wang Rong arrived at the post house and saw Lin Zhi and his wife. Although they were shocked, they had no doubts about Wang Rong's identity.

    Wang Rong is the prime minister, and he is an old man who has followed the trainer since he begged for rebellion. If Wang Rong surrenders, will Lin Chu still have loyal ministers?

    "Wang Sikong, why are you here?"

    &#24378&#29306&#32&#57&#57&#98&#120&#119&#120&#46&#99&#111&#109&#32&#35835&#29306&#12290 Wang Rong sat down, sighed and said: "The army in Jiangbei was defeated.  , the emperor broke through the siege and went south, but soon there was chaos in the army. I was escorted by my general, and then I escaped back to Yuzhang.

    But within two days of arriving in Yuzhang, the Sui army planned an ambush in Sanyuan Mountain. Huang Weiyang, the commander-in-chief of the Sui army, personally took the risk and lured our army to attack.  The emperor was unaware and was ambushed by the Sui army.  Lin Zhen died in battle, and more than half of the army in the city suffered casualties.

    Seeing that Liang Jun's reinforcements were stationed in Huancheng, the emperor had no choice but to send me as an envoy to Huancheng to persuade Liang Jun to send troops.

    I worked hard and finally persuaded Zhang Xiu to send troops, but Zhang Xiu was afraid of the enemy and was blocked by the Sui army at Wanjialing. After two battles, he turned around and returned to Huancheng.  I asked to see him several times but without success. As I had no choice, I rushed to Jiangling and begged Xiao Mian to order Zhang Xiu to send troops.  "

    At this time 7*5zw.com Zhang Si.  Linzhi was shocked to hear that the Chu army was defeated again, and couldn't help but worry about the situation in Yuzhang City.

    "It's been half a month since Sikong came here. It's really hard to predict what's going on in Yuzhang City."

    Wang Rong knew Lin Zhi's thoughts and immediately whispered: "Princess, don't worry. I guess, if the Sui army wanted to defeat Yuzhang, they would have defeated it long ago, and there is no need to wait until today."

    When Lin Zhi heard this, her eyes immediately widened.

    "I think the Sui army wanted to use Yuzhang as bait to lure the Chu army into their trap. That's why they didn't take action against Yuzhang."

    Although Lin Zhi is smart, he doesn't understand military affairs. When he heard this, he didn't know what to say.

    Zhang Sui couldn't help but ask: "Sikong, what about us?"

    "Continue to persuade Liang Jun to send troops!"

    "But didn't Sikong say that the Sui army might have a trap?"

    Wang Rong glanced at the two men and said: "So what, once the army is defeated, Liang Jun will also die. But if Liang Jun ignored it, stationed troops in the city, and watched the tigers fight, the Sui army lost patience and attacked Yuzhang directly.  , it is our great Chu that will be destroyed.

    The king has been reluctant to break through. Who knows how much patience the Sui army has now.  Besides, if Zhang Xiu sends troops to defeat the Sui army, it will relieve Yu Zhang.

    If Zhang Xiu rescues him, Yuzhang may not be able to survive.  But if Zhang Xiu doesn't move, Yuzhang will definitely not be able to save it.  "

    In front of Lin Zhi, Wang Rong never told a lie. This made Lin Zhi believe in Wang Rong even more.

    "What Sikong said is absolutely true."

    Lin Zhi understood Wang Rong¡¯s intention and immediately agreed to lobby the entire Liang State.

    Wang Rong took advantage of the relationship between Liang Jun's envoys and soon met Xiao Mian. At the same time, he told about the battle situation in Yuzhang and the stagnation of Zhang Xiu's garrison in the city.

    ? ?Upon hearing this news, Xiao Mian's expression did not change.  The main reason is that Zhang Xiu had already mentioned this matter in advance and got Xiao Mian's consent.

    Who wouldn¡¯t want to just take advantage without suffering a loss?

    But Wang Rong immediately said: "The emperor of Daliang has learned clearly that if the king of Qi sits in Huancheng and does not care about the life and death of our country, Chu, then Yuzhang is bound to be lost. If Yuzhang is lost, the Sui army can attack from Lukou, Yichun, Lu  Lingshu fought his way into Jingxiang. But the natural barrier of the Yangtze River in Daliang was completely empty. The emperor of Daliang must have realized the fighting power of the Sui army. I wonder if the Liang army can stop it?"

    Xiao Mian was a little speechless.

    When Xiao Mian was young, he stayed in Luoyang for many years as a relative. Of course, he was aware of the Sui army's illustrious military exploits, and even more aware of Huang Mingyuan's terror.  In fact, he has always been a little afraid of the Sui army, so until now, he has not dared to go north to Xiangyang to fight for the world.

    Before Xiao Mian finished speaking, Cen Wenwen on the side scolded: "You are just an envoy from a small country. Your family master here does not dare to make such nonsense. Who will give you the courage to question my master?"

    Faced with the pointing finger, Wang Rong did not say much, but bowed his head to the ground, and then said: "Emperor Daliang, Yuzhang is in danger. The reason why it can be trapped so far is because of the Daliang reinforcements and hope. If the hope comes true, this will  It is difficult to predict whether the city can be defended. The officers and soldiers in the city may surrender directly to the Sui army in order to survive. When the Sui army attacks Liang in the future, the Yuzhang disciples with hatred in their hearts may not strive to be the vanguard."

    After saying this, Wang Rong left, leaving the Liang Kingdom's monarchs and ministers staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

    Wang Rong didn¡¯t say much, because the pros and cons were very clear, and since he was an envoy from a foreign country, the other party naturally didn¡¯t trust him, so it would have little effect.

    " But Wang Rong is more than that. In addition to hard things, there are also soft things.  He immediately asked people to bribe Xiao Liang's important minister Cai Derang with generous gifts. At the same time, he asked people to spread rumors in Jiangling. The reason why Zhang Xiu lingered in Jiujiang and would not return without fighting was because he wanted to hold on to military power and separate Yuzhang.

    Later, Wang Rong made further rumors that Zhang Xiu had surrendered to the Sui Dynasty, and led the Sui army into Jingxiang with a hundred thousand troops as a meeting gift.

    Soon rumors spread that Zhang Xiu had a bad personality, was an enemy of Dong Jingzhen and others, and was not a member of a wealthy family (Remember this site¡¯s website address: www.hlnovel.com
