In mid-August, when the weather was the hottest, Sun Yu received the news of the death of King Jinjiang in Youxi County. It was not sad, but they had met once and they were polite to each other. It was considered an honor to stay with Congxiao until his death.

He was tortured before, and his family fortune is not guaranteed after his death. This is a troubled world.

"Sir, what should we do?" Yang Qifeng received the news and rushed to report it.

"Tomorrow morning, there will be a big peak of troops." Sun Yu believed that he must have received the news later than the other two, and the meeting under Quanzhou City must be very lively.

Zhang Hansi originally arrived one day earlier than Chen Hongjin, but it happened to coincide with the funeral of the King of Jinjiang. Death was the most important thing. Deng Mao was unwilling to send his army into the city no matter what, so he could only wait patiently outside the city. This Quanzhou city is extremely strong, and one day is certain.

If you can't take it, you'll have to lose your troops and generals, and you won't be able to win.

As a result, early the next morning, just as Zhang Hansi was about to call the door, Chen Hongjin arrived with a group of light cavalry, and the army behind him was not far behind.

"Oh, Deputy Ambassador Zhang, it's better if you hurry up. Yesterday, you sent the prince to his funeral? I was far away, so I came a step too late, which will be a lifelong regret!" Chen Hongjin winked, trying to force out a few tears, but his eyes failed to live up to the expectations.

Had to give up.

"General, I have met the Commander-in-Chief of the Army. Well, General came too late and didn't catch up. Hey, okay, why did he just leave?" Zhang Hansi pretended to rub his eyes. He hadn't been called out for several years.

He passed Deputy Ambassador Zhang, who was actually a bit shorter than Chen Hongjin.

"Then, let's go in together?" Chen Hongjin asked tentatively. It's all his son's fault. He can't even handle a little girl. Otherwise, it would be much easier to enter Quanzhou City. Speaking of this, it's all Sun Yu's fault.

You bastard, get in the way, otherwise Zhang Hansi will be played by him sooner or later.

"Well, the one above has the final say when it comes to entering the city." Zhang Hansi's eyes rolled. Deng Mao didn't let him enter the city yesterday. Could it be that he was colluding with Chen Hongjin? Otherwise, how could this kid dare to enter with him?

city.

"This General Deng Mao was not trained by Deputy Ambassador Chen. Isn't it easy to open a door?" Chen Hongjin laughed. When he saw Zhang Hansi waiting outside the city, he knew that Deng Mao had not made up his mind, so he might as well disgust him.

Zhang Han thought about it.

"What are you talking about? We all worked under the prince before, and we were all promoted by the prince, and we are what we are today." Zhang Hansi waved his hand, this Deng Mao is a stone in the pit, you can do it as you go. Paralyzed, one mouth after another.

Deputy envoy, why are you showing off?

"How about? Let's go together?" We have to go into the city. It's not a problem to just wait outside, Chen Hongjin suggested.

"Okay, let's go together." Zhang Hansi nodded.

The two drove their horses forward, watching each other out, keeping a distance of more than two feet, and each had two skilled guards around them.

"General Deng, Deputy Envoy Zhang and I want to enter the city and go to the palace to burn incense in front of the prince's soul. Please open the door and let us go." Chen Hongjin shouted towards the city.

"If you enter the city alone, I will open the door to greet you personally." Deng Mao said sarcastically. He had nothing nice to say about Chen Hongjin.

"General Deng is joking, how can I know if there are any evildoers in the city? The prince died under strange circumstances, so I will lead a large army into the city to conduct detailed research." Isn't he sick if he enters the city alone? As long as the stepson is arranged,

A few good players can kill you.

"General Deng, please open the door quickly. Could it be that the death of this prince has something to do with you?" Zhang Hansi also helped. He had to go into the city and control the stepson. Whoever controls him will have great justice.

, just like Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms, holding the emperor hostage to order the princes.

"It's nonsense. What's the plot of the prince when he is seriously ill for a long time? I know exactly what the two generals are thinking, but there is only one person, and there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. If the two lead an army into the city, they will inevitably fight. If the city is good,

, will also be destroyed in one day, how innocent are the people? The two generals must not want to live in an empty city full of holes, right?" After the death of King Jinjiang, Deng Mao could not be said to be sad. His former loyalist was gone, and he

Now I just want to protect the people of this city as much as possible, so that he will not be in vain as a general. If he can strictly maintain his power and wealth, that would be the best.

Chen Hongjin and Zhang Hansi looked at each other and couldn't help but continue to distance themselves. The man surnamed Deng was right. There was only one seat, and the two of them would always compete.

In the memory of Sun Yu's previous life, it was Chen Hongjin who recommended Zhang Hansi as his successor. Later, Zhang Hansi failed to remove Chen Hongjin and was put under house arrest by Chen Hongjin. It must be that Chen Hongjin had Deng Mao's support and was expected to be able to turn the tables, so he deliberately used the Qingyuan Military Festival.

The position of Du Envoy made Zhang Hansi relax his vigilance.

Now Chen Hongjin and Deng Mao have to fight. If they give in to this step, I'm afraid there will be no chance before Zhang Hansi's death. He waited for Liu Congxu to die, and he waited for four years, and finally the opportunity came.

If he waits any longer, how many more four years will he have? Although Zhang Hansi is older than himself, it is hard to say who will die first. Moreover, Zhang Hansi is not a follower. He has several sons, but they are just not very lively.

Chen Hongjin kept rubbing the hilt of his sword. He was three feet away. If he rushed over, would he be able to kill the opponent?

Zhang Hansi also thought carefully about whether Chen Hongjin's army had not arrived yet and only had a few hundred light cavalry. If he could capture these cavalry, he would have the absolute upper hand. Although his son was named Chen He

, there is a bit of weight, but it is still far from arm-wrestling with myself.

The two of them thought about it carefully, and both saw the unkindness and vigilance in the other's eyes. They put away those unrealistic thoughts. They were not fools. They were fully prepared. How could they be overturned by someone?

"Deputy Envoy Zhang, why don't we join forces and go to the city first? Who will get the young prince first, and who will stay for the Qingyuan Army?" Chen Hongjin put away his mind. If Quanzhou is not taken, it would be unwise for the two of them to fight head-on.

No matter what, the seat must be vacated first, and then the two of them can compete with each other, otherwise others may take advantage of them.

"That's very good." Zhang Hansi nodded and started a head-on fight with Chen Hongjin. He was also frightened. This way, it didn't hurt the friendship. The loser would continue to be the second best. As for how to fight in the future, that was a matter for the future.

"General Deng, please go to the palace to report that the city gate will not be opened at three quarters tomorrow noon. I will attack from the west gate and Deputy Zhang will attack from the east gate. Those who enter the palace first to find out the cause of the prince's death will stay behind for the Qingyuan Army." Chen Hongjin followed.

After some discussion, Zhang Hansi decided to take off the disguise. When doing such a big thing, one cannot be timid and must make a decision.

Deng Mao shook his head. He didn't know how to deal with himself now. Although he had thousands of soldiers and horses, they were trapped in one city. On the other hand, both of them were not only strong in military strength,

Ma Zhuang still had endless support from the rear, but he couldn't hold on at all.

"You guys stay here and I'll go to the palace." You don't have to make the decision yourself, you just need to go to the palace to report.

The young Liu Shao was dressed in sackcloth and mourning. In the lobby of the palace, there was an endless stream of guests coming to offer incense.

"General Deng, what's the matter?" Liu Shaoqi took Deng Mao into the side hall and sighed. Even before Chen Hongjin and Zhang Hansi entered the city to offer incense, he knew something was wrong.

"Chen Hongjin, the commander-in-chief, and Zhang Hansi, the deputy envoy, have each led thousands of troops and are stationed outside the city. Tomorrow at three quarters at noon, if the city gate is not opened, we will attack by force. Whoever captures the young prince first will stay behind for Qingyuan." Deng Mao shook his head.

, if Liu Congxiao had known that he died so early, he might not have made him his stepson. This would have harmed him. The bloodline of the Liu family may have been cut off, and I don’t know what happened to Jiang Ning’s hostage.

.

"I understand. Tomorrow at noon, I will go up to the tower and announce my father's death." Liu Shaoqi nodded. Liu Congxiao had sobered up once before his death. He anticipated today's situation and gave him some explanation.

Will not panic or lose control.

Deng Mao was a little surprised. Liu Shaoqi was much calmer than he thought. Perhaps the prince had left a way out before he died, so he immediately stopped thinking about it and followed the order.

Liu Shaoqi remembered that when Liu Congxiao woke up that day, he held his hand and said: Chen Hongjin, a tiger and wolf, fell into his hands, and it was absolutely unlucky. On the other hand, Zhang Hansi, although he also had ambitions, cherished his reputation and would not hurt him.

As long as he passes the position of the Qingyuan Army's successor to him, he can save his life.

"Two generals, please return to the camp and wait patiently. At noon tomorrow, the young prince will announce his death here." Deng Mao went up to the top of the city and said to the two people waiting below. Chen Hongjin's army has all arrived.

They are setting up camp. The entire camp outside Quanzhou City stretches for several miles.

"Death?" Chen Hongjin murmured in his heart. He had been in Quanzhou for two years. On the other hand, Zhang Hansi had been stationed in Quanzhou all year round, so he had to get closer to the water first.

"General Chen, why don't you follow me back to the camp? I have some fine wine in the camp, so I'll drink it up." Zhang Hansi didn't think much about it. He will see what the fate is tomorrow.

"Your Majesty has just passed away. I'm so sad that I don't want to drink. Deputy Commander Zhang can drink alone." Chen Hongjin secretly cursed, old man, I'd better drink you to death.

"Haha, I will go back now. See you at noon tomorrow." Zhang Hansi knew he had made a mistake, so he said no more. He rode back and secretly cursed Chen Hongjin for not being polite. He invited you to drink and still made excuses for me. What do you think?

I just need to eat fast and recite Buddha’s name.

"Father, how are you?" As soon as Chen Hongjin returned to the military camp, Chen He ran over and asked. As Chen Hongjin's most proud son, he had been thinking about this position for a long time.

"It's not that good. It's probably not a good thing to say that the prince has a death wish. Be prepared tomorrow." Chen Hongjin took off his armor, picked up the tea and took a sip. Chen Hongjin was still very satisfied with his son, except for what happened last time.

, other performance is pretty good.

"Really want to fight?" Chen He was a little nervous. He had had many small fights over the years, but this was the first time such a large-scale fight had occurred. Besides, the people on both sides were very close to each other, and neither of them had any decent defensive means. They were basically fighting hand-to-hand.
