    "Reporting to your Majesty, do we still want to move forward?"

    After two days and two nights of rapid march, Liu Deng and Luan Bu finally arrived at the boundary of Kaiyang.

    Originally there were several passes at the border between the two countries, but now they are in chaos.

    In addition, there is no leader in the Zhao Kingdom, and Dou Ying can only control the area around Handan City.

    As for the pass between the two countries, he is really beyond his reach now

    "After all, if the name is not correct, the words will not be correct. After all, he is just the prime minister appointed by the court, not the new King Zhao.

    Zhao's lieutenant Tian Zhiqi has a very ambiguous attitude so far. Although Zhao's army has not openly participated in the rebellion, it has not had a head-on conflict with the rebels.

    Even when the rebels took advantage of the road, Tian Zhiqi actually instructed Zhao Jun to clear the way for them, which made everyone confused about what he wanted to do.

    This makes Dou Ying feel very troublesome now. If it were peacetime, he could have requested an imperial edict and captured him directly.

    But now there are wars and chaos everywhere, and people are panicking. If he is touched at this time, if one is not good, then the entire Zhao country will really be involved in the rebellion!

    After all, without the checks and balances of the king, the power of a country's lieutenant would be really astonishing.

    The Lieutenant¡¯s Mansion is in charge of all conquests in the country, and all armies in the country fall under the jurisdiction of the Lieutenant¡¯s Mansion.

    There is no Taifu in the Zhao Kingdom, and Dou Ying is a new arrival after all. His authority as the Prime Minister is far from being able to suppress the lieutenant.

    The attitude of the Lieutenant's Mansion was ambiguous, and the generals below naturally started to rise up.

    From the border between the two countries to the foot of Kaiyang City, it is more than three hundred miles, but there is no line of defense.

    "We have been walking all this way, but there is not even a single defender. It seems that Peng Xiyao is determined to support his troops and respect himself!"

    Liu Deng reined in the horse's head, turned over and dismounted, and asked Luan Bu to spread out the map and study the nearby terrain.

    "Your Majesty, why don't I go to his camp to find out what he thinks and then make plans?"

    Luan Bu carefully considered his words.

    "No, you can't go in person. This person is used to being arrogant and domineering, and he now holds an army of 80,000 people. If you go in person now, we will show weakness to the enemy first, and our momentum will already be lowered.  How can we conquer him?"

    After hesitating for a moment, Liu Deng directly rejected Luan Bu's proposal.

    "But at this time, if we use force, I'm afraid"

    No matter what, they only have 5,000 people in their hands now.

    "If we really push this kid into a hurry, when the kid comes to attack, they will be unable to eat and carry around."

    "I know you have good intentions, general, but of course we need him, but why doesn't he need us? In the general's opinion, does Liu Bi and his gang have any hope of success in their rebellion?"

    Liu Deng also knew that this matter was inseparable from Luan Bu's cooperation.

    Only by persuading Luan Bu first and achieving internal unity can we successfully capture Peng Xiyao. Therefore, even though the arrow was on the line, Liu Deng still patiently explained to Luan Bu.

    "Although they have a large number of people, the troops and horses owned by these vassal states are all improvised. There will be no problem in a short period of time, but once the war goes wrong and morale is dampened, the army will be defeated immediately!"

    Luan Bu hesitated for a moment, then said seriously.

    After all, he is also an old soldier. In addition to the Wu and Chu coalition forces, the armies of these vassal states also include some elites who have been at war with Dongou, Fujian and Guangdong all year round.

    The remaining people are a complete mob, and many of them have never even seen blood.

    It sounds like a vigorous 800,000 people, but the total number of real elites among them is probably only about 70,000 to 80,000.

    This war only needs to drag on for a few months. After they lose their spirit, I'm afraid they will soon collapse without a fight!

    "Then how do you think the imperial court will treat these self-respecting generals after this war? Zhao Wang and Liu Sui have already been labeled as treason by the imperial court. They are able to avoid being implicated. They are already burning incense, but they still dare to  If they support their troops and respect themselves, which emperor can tolerate them?"

    When Liu Deng said this, even Luan Bu felt a chill in his back.

    ¡°Peng Xiyao, this bastard, I had a hard time rescuing him back then.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?He was told not to enter the officialdom when he grew up, but he didn't expect that he would follow his father's old path again.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    "But how can a martial artist understand this officialdom?

    His father was a fool back then. He refused to leave a good chance of life and insisted on breaking through the gate of hell on his own.

    In the end, not only was he chopped into pieces, but all his family members were also implicated. Within the three clans, except for Peng Xiyao who had a lucky escape, no one else was spared!

    Hearing Liu Deng¡¯s analysis, Luan Bu secretly sighed. Looking at this kid¡¯s appearance, I¡¯m afraid it won¡¯t be long before he is pushed out and beheaded just like his father

    "Listen to your Majesty's words and let the general know what to do next. Just tell me what to do next!"

    Luan Bu took a deep breath, and then saluted Liu Deng seriously. This time he was really convinced.

    It was only now that he understood that in this court, it was easy to dodge open swords and difficult to guard against hidden arrows. It was not something that a martial artist like him could understand at all.

    "The general is really too polite. If the general's military merit is enough to make him a marquis, it would already be enough. There is just one more opportunity left. Now this opportunity has arrived. After the chaos subsides, it will be the time for the general to be granted a title!  "

    Seeing that Luan Bu finally compromised, Liu Deng breathed a sigh of relief.

    If I remember correctly, after the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, Luan Bu should be made a marquis for his military merits.

    "If Luan Bu can make progress in the future, it will all be thanks to the king's help!"

    Hearing what Liu Deng said, Luan Bu was immediately overjoyed.

    "Where is Han Lei?"

    Liu Deng also smiled and nodded towards him, then with a solemn look on his face, he shouted directly to the bodyguard beside him.

    "My subordinates are here!"

    Since the last battle on the grassland, Liu Deng has had a really good impression of this guy.

    "Choose ten guards and follow me into the camp!"

    "No!"

    "Your Majesty, you must not do this!"

    As soon as Han Lei finished speaking, Luan Bu had already stopped Liu Deng.

    Liu Deng was not allowed to go there by himself, so why did he suddenly go there in person?

    "General Luan, don't worry, if I haven't come out within two hours, you can lead your army to attack the enemy camp!"

    "But the king!"

    "Okay, general, if you believe me, just lead the army and wait here. Don't worry, the little Peng Xiyao is not in my heart!"

    ¡¾The author has something to say¡¿

    Originally, I was preparing to break out, but something happened at home, so I¡¯m really not in the mood, let¡¯s do it tomorrow!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
