/s日pt>When Han Ruzi was still on the road, the Shenxiong Pass was in chaos.

The Zuo Cha Censor Xiao Sheng carefully prepared everything, but the opponent ran away in advance, and there was nowhere to vent his anger. If this was the capital, if the opponent was an old minister with a high level of experience, he might be able to bear it, at least he was calm on the surface, but this was a remote Shenxiong Pass, the opponent was a teenager, surrounded by a group of soldiers...

Everything made Xiao Sheng angry. Even the generals who were pulled over by him seemed disgusting. No one noticed such a big deal as General Zhenbei fled back to the capital, let alone remind him.

Xiao Sheng turned around in place, his eyes fell on Chai Yue. For this "Chai Family", the most energy he had spent, of course, the so-called "most" was just a banquet for tens of thousands of soldiers at Shenxiong Pass. For a small, unknown general, this was definitely a high look, but Chai Yue deceived him.

"The Chai family's unrestrained son." Xiao Sheng said gritted his teeth.

Chai Yue bowed slightly to Xiao Sheng. After so many things happened, Xiao Sheng actually wanted to use the "Chai Family" to threaten and tempt him. Chai Yue knew the character of his family best and knew very well that from the moment he was unwilling to assassinate General Zhenbei, he was destined not to get the understanding of the Chai family.

"Since General Zhenbei is not here, Lord Xiao should govern the military affairs of Shenxiong Pass on the border." Chai Yue said politely.

Liu Kunsheng's responsibilities were only in the Northern Army, more than 10,000 miscellaneous army, and the coordination of food and supplies for the surrounding counties, and he was not under his jurisdiction. Han Ruzi had been appointed by the general Han Xing. After he left, the person with the highest official title should be taken over.

Xiao Sheng laughed furiously, and suddenly saw several Hun envoys in the crowd, and pointed at them, "You, what are you doing?"

The Huns looked at each other, walked out, bowed and said, "We are invited to continue the peace talks with Da Chu."

Someone next to him whispered to Xiao Sheng: "This is Jin Chunzhong, the second son of the Marquis of Guiyi."

"Another traitor, another traitor." Xiao Sheng said coldly, unintentionally lowering his voice, "Who are you invited?"

Jin Chunzhong's face turned slightly red, and he stood up and said, "At the invitation of General Zhenbei of Dachu."

"General Zhenbei is the biggest traitor!" Xiao Sheng could no longer bear it, "The peace talks are over, no, there is no peace talks at all. General Zhenbei privately negotiated and committed the crime of collusion with the enemy. And you, all of you, actually fled in front of the Huns and were the same as the surrendered enemy. If you want to atone for your sins, kill the Huns envoys now, and the army goes out of the pass, defeat the Huns, kill them, capture them, and expose the prestige of the Great Chu State, so that the Huns cavalry will no longer dare to approach the border!"

If this passionate words were before winter, they would arouse a lot of fighting spirit, but now they can only make the soldiers around them look at each other.

Chai Yue stepped forward and said, "The Huns have gone north and went to the valley to spend the winter. The Chu army lacked food and grass..."

"Food and grass are just excuses. You are all blinded by the General Zhenbei. The Huns went north and chased after them now. If there is insufficient food and grass, you can just recruit them immediately."

Chai Yue said in amazement: "It's winter now, and there are insufficient grain storage. Nearby counties have been entrusted several times, so the people are living in poverty and in a hurry. How to collect them?"

"Chai Yue, you are no longer a general. Come and take him down and take him to the capital. The Ministry of War will be convicted."

Several officers walked towards Chai Yue, took two steps and stopped again because there were too many people behind Chai Yue.

Everyone stood on the street in front of the Shenxiongguan Yamen. Chai Yue was facing north and south. There were a large number of soldiers standing behind him, with densely packed and unable to see the head. On the steps at the Yamen, some soldiers were also standing on Chai Yue's side.

Xiao Sheng turned around and looked at it. He attracted many people. At a rough look, it was no less than the other side. It was just that the morale was insufficient. The people on the other side were already holding the swords, but his people all showed panic, as if they were in a desire to retreat.

Of course, Xiao Sheng was not convinced. If there were many people and powerful people, he could win, so what would the Great Chu court do? Why did he climb up to death?

"I am the left censor Xiao Sheng! I was assigned by the Grand Chief of the Governor's Office and the Ministry of War to take over all the Chu army. I also have a handwritten letter from the Grand Chief of the Northern Army, asking the generals of the Northern Army to obey my orders." Xiao Sheng did have such a letter, taken out from his arms and held high in his hands.

Liu Kunsheng beside Chai Yue said, "What did the Northern Army Grand Sima say in the letter? Lord Xiao read it and listen."

Xiao Sheng was just thinking about this, so he opened the letter and chanted loudly: "The soldiers of the Northern Army obeyed the order: the Grand Sima of the Northern Army, the champion Hou Shiminger and others attacked the Huns and fought bravely to kill the enemy..."

The letter was very long, and the general meaning was to order the Northern Army to defeat the Huns, not to retreat, not to obey the bewitching of outsiders. The Grand Sima Yin was controlled by the army chief Chai Zhi, the Zuo Cha Yin was the champion Hou's close confidant and important minister. Chai Zhi and others must obey Lord Xiao's orders, and so on.

The news of Chai Zhi's death has not yet reached the capital, and the champion Hou has high hopes for him in the letter.

After reading the letter, Xiao Sheng said to the generals: "General Zhenbei returns to Beijing, it is like throwing himself into a trap. If you don't stop your horse, you will end up with him. I might as well say clearly that the current emperor is seriously ill and the champion Hou will soon as possible ascend the throne. His order is the imperial edict..."

Chai Yue asked: "Campion Hou will definitely ascend the throne?"

Xiao Sheng hated this person the most and sneered: "Of course, otherwise, why did I come from afar? The general situation in the capital has been decided. Maybe the champion Hou has ascended the throne at this moment, and the imperial edict is on the way."

The streets are not courts, and soldiers are not civil officials. Xiao Sheng reacted quickly. He understood that he had to use direct and simple words to impress these people and thus establish the victory in one fell swoop. He had missed the deposed emperor. Once the champion Hou heard about this news, he didn't know how angry he should be. He had to make contributions and protect himself as soon as possible.

These days, news about the new emperor has been quietly circulating in the army. Xiao Sheng was the first to publicly raise it, and everyone was not particularly surprised.

Chai Yue walked up two steps and stood higher, and shouted: "Mr. Xiao said that the champion Hou would definitely ascend the throne. He was stupid, but he had a doubt: the champion Hou was the Grand Marshal of the Northern Army, and the soldiers of the Northern Army were all his arms and minions. But he did not transfer the Northern Army to the capital to help, but frequently ordered the Northern Army to attack the Huns from afar and fight an unbeatable battle. Why?"

Xiao Sheng was about to explain, Chai Yue said again: "Mr. Xiao once told me personally that the Southern Army has returned to Beijing and will assist the King of East China Sea to become emperor, right?"

Xiao Sheng noticed Chai Yue's intention and was speechless for a moment, regretting that he had disclosed the news before.

Chai Yue aroused everyone's doubts, especially the news of the Southern Army returning to Beijing, which made the soldiers of the Northern Army angry. The Southern and Northern Army had always been disagreement. Once the Southern Army was allowed to establish a new emperor, the Northern Army would not have a good life. But at this time, the Marquis of Chanjun ordered them to go north to attack the Huns and get farther and farther away from the capital.

"The Champion Hou will not treat the Northern Army badly!" Xiao Sheng shouted, waving the letter in his hand, "As long as you defeat the Huns, the Champion Hou will reward everyone heavily..."

Chai Yue stepped on the highest stairs and pointed his hand at Xiao Sheng, "Mr. Xiao, on the way to Shenxiong Pass, who did you get the Grand Sima Seal from?"

"There is no need for me to answer..." Xiao Sheng looked at each other and found that he had to answer this question. Chai Yue's words were too tempting, and even the people behind Xiao Sheng began to whisper, "I got the Grand Sima Seal from the King of East Sea."

This is not new news. Many people have known about this for a long time. Chai Yue just wants to mention it in public. "The Southern Army returned to Beijing, and the person who was preparing to assist was Donghai. Lord Xiao claimed that he came to Shenxiong Pass under the order of the Champion Hou, but he had a good relationship with the Champion Hou's opponent. May I ask Lord Xiao, the court and the opposition talked about Lord Xiao, only Master Cui's leader is right or false?"

Xiao Sheng was shocked and angry. Three days ago, he was defeated by the young deposed emperor. Now he is about to fall into the young general's destruction. He had seen Chai Yue for a long time. Why didn't he realize that this timid Chai family's concubine son was the leader of the wolf?

"I have a letter written by the champion Hou..." Xiao Sheng firmly grasped the last life-saving straw.

Chai Yue was ready to stab the last sword, "The facts are clear, the champion Hou has been under house arrest and even killed in the capital. Lord Xiao did not come at the order of the champion Hou. He was ordered by the Grand Tutor Cui and the King of East Sea! There is only one purpose, to send the Northern Army to the battlefield, use the hands of the Huns to eliminate the Northern Army, and eliminate worries for the King of East Sea to ascend the throne!"

"Nonsense! Falsification!" Xiao Sheng's voice was trembling with anger, "I have a handwritten letter from Champion Hou. You idiots, Champion Hou can convince Nanjun..."

Besides, nothing is unnecessary. Chai Yue has convinced all the soldiers on the street.

"The Northern Army will not go and die!"

"Avenge the champion!"

"Return to Beijing! Return to Beijing!" The screams became louder and louder.

Xiao Sheng's defense was completely swallowed up. He angrily wanted to catch a few people and force them to listen to him, but was pushed away unceremoniously.

Liu Kunsheng and others looked at Chai Yue in surprise. They knew that Chai Yue was prepared, but they did not expect that he could defeat Zuo Cha Censor so thoroughly. They did not expect that the reason he used to convince the soldiers of the Northern Army was not General Zhenbei, but the champion Hou!

Chai Yue walked down the steps and said to Liu Kunsheng: "Emperor Liu, will you return to Beijing?"

"Oh, of course." Liu Kun promoted the seal, and he could only issue the order to return to Beijing, "But for what reason... what should I do if there is Shenxiong Pass?"

"The Northern Army returned to Beijing, and the remaining people guarded Shenxiong Pass. The food and grass here are not enough to support the Northern Army for a long time. There are several granaries on the way back to Beijing, which are available for food. As for the reason, Chai Yue looked at Jin Chunzhong, "The Huns sent envoys to negotiate with the Great Chu, and the Northern Army escorted the envoys to Beijing."

Liu Kunsheng was very at ease. For him, following the morale of the army was the best choice. He only had one question left: "Where is General Zhenbei?"

Chai Yue smiled: "This is exactly the strategy of General Zhenbei."

Liu Kunsheng suddenly realized: General Zhenbei did not want to be the first to be a leader at this time. Champion Hou and King Donghai, the Southern Army and the Northern Army should be the protagonists of the battle. After being transferred back to the Northern Army in the name of Champion Hou, the Grand Sima who was far away from the Northern Army, General Zhenbei would have the opportunity to fully control this army. In this process, Chai Yue acted as a "liar" and did not affect the prestige of General Zhenbei.

In the abandoned temple outside Baiqiao Town, Han Ruzi and Meng E were watching the cavalry on the official road. This was his most fragile moment. As a force that could influence "thousand miles away", the Northern Army was still moving on the road, "within ten steps", and he had only Meng E. (To be continued.)
