"The whole army——" Under the night, a Xishu general rode his horse to the hillside. There was still a piece of black cloth hanging on General Pi's arm armor.
"Attack Guxuguan! With my ambition as a Shu people, I will avenge the military advisor!"
After learning that Jia Zhou had been "shot to death" by the Ling people, all the frontline camps in Xishu burst into overwhelming anger. In their eyes, Jia Zhou's military advisor was like the pestle of Dinghai and the soul of Western Shu.
"Kill over! Attack Guxu Pass!"
With the death of Jia Zhou, many people in the south of the Yangtze River no longer care about Dongling. Actively help transport food and grass and prepare baggage.
Dongfang lowered his head in admiration, with a sad expression on his face.
"Teacher, according to your plan, Dongling will be destroyed and Jiangnan will be safe."
…
Gu Xu closes the door.
Zuo Shiren trembled in the night wind. When he learned that the Shu people were besieging Guxuguan, he immediately sent envoys to find out the reason.
But the envoy cried and reported back, saying that the people from Ling shot and killed Du E's military advisor. Now not only the armies of Western Shu, but also the people of the two states who had been favored by Du E's benevolent government began to surround him.
"I didn't shoot the poisonous osprey!" Zuo Shiren said in a painful tone. He knew very well the importance of Poisonous Eagle in Western Shu. Such a person died at the border of Guxuguan. Anyone with a brain will think that Dongling did it.
But unfortunately, he did not have such an order.
"Send another envoy... No, I will leave the city myself -"
"My lord, Dongfang Jing of Xishu has said that anyone from Dongling who dares to leave the city will be shot immediately."
Zuo Shiren was stunned on the spot. After a long time, it seemed like I had grasped a life-saving straw.
"Where is the military advisor? Invite Ling Su quickly. My Qi De may be able to find a way."
"My lord, I just got the information. The Liang Wang's military advisor has already snatched various warships and sea vessels and escaped into the sea."
"Zide mistaken me!"
Zuo Shiren covered his chest and staggered with anger. After retreating to Wuzhou, he complained about injustice every day, so that many political affairs were handed over to Lingsu. Now it seems that he is clearly inviting the wolf into the house.
From the young counselor Rong Lu to the general Kang Zhu, they all urged him to refuse the food king to enter Shu...
"Lord, the Shu people have begun to attack the city!"
Zuo Shiren gasped. Suddenly I realized that perhaps the death of Poisonous Eagle was premeditated and became a sharp blade to attack Dongling.
But now, the entire Wuzhou, under the pressure of Xishu, only has more than 10,000 people, and most of them have poor weapons and armor.
Zuo Shiren lowered his head in silence and looked at his increasingly fat arms. At the beginning, when he used Lingzhou as his base camp and conquered Wuzhou and Chuzhou, he was so majestic. There are many counselors and more than a hundred generals. For this reason, he pays great attention to his appearance, his hair is not messy, and his posture is elegant and steady.
but now--
"My lord, there should be some missing fishing boats on the coast. My lord, please leave quickly." The guard urged anxiously.
Zuo Shiren was trembling.
…
"Hold! Guard Guxu Pass!" As a general, Kang Shuo had no intention of surrendering. The previous incident with Li Ducheng and his brother Kang Zhu's war had left him with an unquenchable hatred for Xishu.
"Fire the arrow——"
Kang Shuo roared angrily, raised his long knife, and pointed angrily at the bottom of Guxuguan. It's a pity that Guxu Pass, which is still under repair, and the sudden outburst of the Shu people's mournful soldiers, cannot withstand it at all.
Under various disadvantages, when Xi Shu's infantry battalion approached the city wall——
Bang.
A feather arrow knocked the feather helmet Kang Shuo was wearing off his head.
Kang Shuo took a few steps back, not yet standing firm.
Thump thump thump.
Another arrow penetrated his head. Kang Shuo held the knife and coughed blood and slowly fell to the ground.
Boom, boom boom.
Under the surprise attack, the city gate of Guxuguan was quickly knocked open by a car. Seeing this, countless Dongling soldiers did not dare to defend any longer. One or two, they all turned around and fled back.
"Enter the city!" A Xishu general rode on a horse and roared with his sword raised.
…
"Lord?"
Sitting alone on the throne, Zuo Shiren waved the sword in his hand and signaled the commander of the bodyguards to leave. In front of him, his legitimate son and the queen's beloved concubine had been stabbed to death and fell in a pool of blood.
"Lord, keep the green hills in—"
"Where else can I go?" Zuo Shiren raised his head and cried, "Just tell me, where else can I go?"
The commander of the personal guards trembled and knelt down, not daring to answer.
"In this world, Western Shu and Northern Chongqing have come to fight, and it is not my turn to Dongling. The history books of the New Dynasty will only say that I, Zuo Shiren, the left king of Dongling, was unvirtuous and died in Western Shu. hand."
"My lord is the benevolent king of the world..."
Zuo Shiren raised his head and laughed so hard that his voice sounded like tears. His red eyes, tears seeping from the corners of his eyes from time to time.
That year, Daji was not in chaos. Although he is only a dispatch officer in Lingzhou, he already knows that troubled times are coming.
He helped the Shanyue people and taught them how to grow rice and weave hemp. He went to court to help the people of Lingzhou lower their taxes, even at the expense of contradicting his superiors.
He will always remember that on the day when the troops gathered for the uprising, countless people in Lingzhou and tens of thousands of people from the mountain camp gathered in front of him, shouting and cheering loudly.
At that time, there was no one in thirty states in the world who did not recognize Zuo Junzi's reputation.
"Twelve years of Hongtu's hegemony, my Zuo Shiren... my Zuo Shiren is unwilling to accept it."
Zuo Shiren raised his head again, his eyes dim with tears. He seemed to be back in the palace in Wangdu, Lingzhou. Civil servants and military generals were lined up on both sides, and there were many talented people.
"Admiral Kang Zhu, I am willing to follow my lord."
"Miao Tong, the right commander of the navy, is willing to follow my lord."
"Xia Houfu, the left commander of the navy, is willing to follow the lord!"
"Fei Fu, the Central Protector, is willing to follow the lord."
"Rong Lu joins the army in Chuzhou and is willing to follow the lord."
…
Zuo Shiren cried out, let out a long mournful cry, raised his sword to his neck, and without any hesitation, cut it hard.
"Send it to my lord."
The commander of the personal guards and a dozen guards nearby all knelt down, drew their swords and died in a pool of blood.
Gu Xu closed the door and the beacon fire gradually dissipated. The army of Western Shu has entered Guancheng and wiped out the remaining deserters.
At the end of the night, the light of dawn shines through the clouds, and the whole land finally has a glimmer of light.
Sitting on the wooden wheel, Dongfang Jingru spent all his strength and leaned back, looking at the sky absentmindedly. With only 10,000 remaining troops and horses, it would not be difficult for Xi Shu to attack.
The difficult thing is to appease the people of Chuling Prefecture. But now, his teacher has paved the way for him. Pave a road to compete for supremacy.
"Destroy Beiyu!" Dongfang Jing choked his voice and looked cold.
…
There are still more than twenty miles away from the Lingzhou border.
Xu Mu, who was riding a horse, slowly stopped. In front of him, Fu, the little dog riding on the horse, his eyes red from crying, with a mourning cloth wrapped around his head, came to report the funeral in person.
"Lord, lord, the teacher has gone——"
Xu Mu paused and then started crying.
"Wenlong!"
After crying a few times, Xu Mu shook his body and fell off his horse.
