At the beginning of May, when the Wei State was happily welcoming the triumph of the armies, in the Chu State, Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, led an army of 100,000 and was on his way to eastern Chu.

To the east of Pingyu County, after passing through "Fanyang", it entered the fiefdom territory of "Xiang's", including several cities such as "Bed", "Xinyu", and "Xinyang".

Of course, this "Xiang family" refers to the "Runan Xiang family", and the "Runan Xiang family" is the source of most of the "Xiang family" in the current Chu State, but just like the "Xiong family", there were many branches, but according to the Xiang family genealogy, "Xinyang Jun Xiang Pei" and "Ruyin Jun Xiang Rong" should be regarded as the main family of the Xiang family.

And the veteran "Xiang Yan", as well as the "Jiujiang Xiang Clan" from the brothers of the generals "Xiang Mo" and "Xiang Jiao", should be regarded as the division of the Xiang clan in Runan.

However, having said that, it cannot be denied that the momentum of the Runan Xiang clan is not as strong as the "Jiujiang Xiang clan", after all, the two general brothers Xiang Mo and Xiang Jiao alone are enough to throw "Ruyin Jun Xiang Rong", "Xinyang Jun Xiang Pei" and others out of the distance.

When Xiong Tuo's army passed through Xinyang, Xiang Pei, the king of Xinyang, did not seem to have returned to the county, and the county soldiers in the city watched Xiong Tuo's army from afar, and did not dare to come forward.

When approaching the "fine sun", Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, saw a group of people galloping towards him from a distance, and it was estimated that there were about 2,000 people.

The first person, sitting on a war horse, although his hair and beard are slightly white, he is still in good spirits.

Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, immediately waved his hand to signal the whole army to stand by, and a truly complicated look flashed in the eyes of the people who came, with shame, relief, and joy.

A moment later, the veteran came to Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, turned over and dismounted, and knocked on the ground with one knee: "Childe! ”

At this time, Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, had already turned over and dismounted, took a few steps to help the veteran up, and said with emotion: "Lord Xiang Gong, don't come unharmed." ”

This veteran called "Xiang Gong", Xiangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo will never be a stranger, because that is his cousin Runanjun Xiong Hao's former old subordinates, when Xuancheng Jun Xiong Tuo was killed by the King of Wei and defeated in Song County, it was Xiyang Jun Xiang Gong's son Xiang Xi and Xiang Le who broke off for him, but they didn't want these two to die in the hands of "Dangjun Youma".

Since then, Xiong Tuo, the Jun of Xuancheng, has not dared to contact him again because he is ashamed of Xiang Gong, the Jun of Xiyang.

After being helped up by Xiong Tuo, the Monarch of Xuancheng, Xiang Gong looked at this more stable Prince Chu than just now, and actually smiled with satisfaction, and asked in a low voice, "Childe, but you are going to Chudong?" ”

Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, naturally did not hide this veteran, nodded and said solemnly: "Although I am a little disrespectful to Lord Jingshe, his defeat is my opportunity to seize power!" ”

Xiyang Jun Xiang stared intently at Xiong Tuo, the Jun of Xuancheng, and asked solemnly, "Childe has already realized?" ”

"Enlightenment?" Xiong Tuo, the Monarch of Xuancheng, chuckled, and then said with an inexplicable expression: "When I held the head of Lord Xiong Hao in my hand and personally sent it to Shouying and handed it over to those people from Chudong, I already had an enlightenment in my heart. …… My uncle is too kind, but I, Xiong Tuo, am a ruthless person! ”

Xiyang Jun Xiang Gong looked at Xiong Tuo deeply, suddenly turned around and summoned a young general, and introduced: "This is my third son Xiang Xing, whose martial arts are not inferior to his two brothers, and can be used as the pioneer of the son!" ”

Hearing this, the young man named Xiang Xing immediately knocked on one knee and clasped his fists and saluted: "Xiang Xing, I've seen my son!" ”

Looking at the young Xiang Xing, Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, couldn't help but be a little in a trance.

After coming to his senses, he nodded heavily.

At this time, it would be a burden to say anything, and the meaning of Xiyang Jun Xiang Gong was already very clear: his father and son wanted to go to Chudong with Xiong Tuo to seize power!

"Let's go!"

After glancing at Xiang Gong of Xiyang Jun, Xiong Tuo, Jun of Xuancheng, waved his hand in high spirits and ordered the army to set off again.

When the army approached "Ruyin", someone had already reported the entry of the army led by Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, to "Xiang Rong, the king of Ruyin".

Ruyin Jun Xiang Rong frowned and said to his henchmen: "It is rumored on the front line that the million-strong army of Lord Shouling Jun Jingshe was defeated, and at this time, Xiong Tuo, the Monarch of Xuancheng, came to Chudong with an army of 100,000 troops, I am afraid that he is uneasy and kind. ”

After all, for the sake of this war, Xinyang Jun Xiang Pei transferred several troops of the Xiang clan in Runan, originally intending to make meritorious contributions in this war, so that the "Xiang clan" could replace the expelled "Qu clan" and become the new force of the "Three Pillars", but he never imagined that the million-strong army of Shouling Jun Jingshe would be defeated in Yongqiu of Wei State.

And right now, there are only a few county soldiers left in the fiefdom of the Xiang clan in Runan, how can they resist the 100,000 army of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng?

"Can you only let Xiong Tuo swagger the border?" The henchman asked with a frown.

Hearing this, Ruyin Jun Xiang Rong also frowned.

Just as he was thinking about countermeasures, someone suddenly came to report: "Your Excellency, Lord Xiyang Jun Xiang Gong, an hour ago, gather the county soldiers in the city and go out of the city to join Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng!" ”

"......" Ruyin Jun Xiang Rong opened his mouth when he heard this, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He was not surprised by this, because his clan uncle Xiyang Jun Xiang Gong was an old subordinate of Runan Jun Xiong Hao more than ten years ago, to be precise, more than half of the Xiang clan of Runan Xiang at that time were under the command of Runan Jun Xiong Hao, waiting to be sent.

But after Runanjun Xiong Hao killed himself, these Xiang princes became a plate of loose sand, and some were like "Xiyang Jun Xiang Gong", who regarded Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, as the successor of Runan Jun Xiong Hao, and was still loyal in the open and in the dark; And more princes of the Xiang clan were co-opted by the nobles of the Xiong clan in Chudong and became the "monitors" who isolated the two parts of Chuxi and Chudong - monitoring the actions of Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng.

For example, Ruyin Jun Xiang Rong and Xinyang Jun Xiang Pei.

Runan Jun Xiong Hao's idea of "improving the status of commoners and restricting the rights of nobles" is very dangerous, especially the corrupt Chu Dong Xiong clan.

It is undeniable that the thoughts of Runan Jun Xiong Hao will indeed make the Chu State strong by leaps and bounds, but at the same time, it will also seriously shake the status of the aristocratic class, damage the interests of the aristocratic class, and even break the bloodline supremacy concept of "clan nobles and lowly people" in the Chu State for hundreds of years.

And Xiong Tuo, the Jun of Xuancheng, is the successor who inherited the idea of Xiong Hao, Jun of Runan.

For the existence of this danger, it should have been eradicated as soon as possible, but because of the old subordinates who were still loyal to Runan Jun Xiong Hao, such as "Xiyang Jun Xiang Gong", and the fact that Runan Jun Xiong Hao used his life at that time in exchange for Huancheng Jun Xiong Tuo to take his place, the Chudong Xiong clan did not succeed after all.

As Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, said himself, he is different from his uncle Runan Jun Xiong Hao, he is a ruthless person, and in order to keep the inheritance left to him by his uncle, he doesn't know how many people he killed.

"Until now, there is only one way to close the gates of the city and let it ......"

As soon as he said this, Ruyin Jun Xiang Rong pondered for a moment, and finally said melancholy: "That's it, open the city gate!" ”

When the henchman heard this, he said in surprise: "Your Majesty, open the city gate, wouldn't that be ......?"

"I know in my heart that I don't need you to teach me!" Ruyin Jun Xiang Rong scolded irritably.

“…… Be! ”

So, when Xiong Tuo's army passed through Ruyin, the gate of Ruyin County was wide open.

This is a message of goodwill, which means that Xiang Rong, the monarch of Ruyin, has no objection to the matter of "Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, leading his army to Chudong to seize power". - At the very least, it has maintained neutrality.

Seeing this, not only did Xiyang Junxiang stroke his beard and nod slightly, but even Xucheng Jun Xiong Tuo was also happy in his heart.

After all, Ruyin Jun Xiang Rong is the family of the "Runan Xiang Clan", although for now, the former is definitely not the opponent of Xuancheng Jun Xiong Tuo, but if he insists on resisting, Xuancheng Jun Xiong Tuo's side will also feel very tricky.

But fortunately, Xiang Rong, the king of Ruyin, is a smart person.

After that, Xiong Tuo, the Jun of Xuancheng, continued to go towards the east of Chu, and along the way, there were successively the old subordinates of Xiong Hao, Jun of Runan, who joined the team with his soldiers, with hundreds of people and thousands of people, and gradually, the team of Xiong Tuo of Xuancheng Jun gradually grew.

When he led the army to the territory of Shouying, the number of troops under his command was about 1450,000, which alarmed Tian Tan, the Qi general stationed in Shouying.

I have to say that even if this time I came to seize power, but looking at the flag of Qi still erected on the royal capital of my country, whether it was Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, or Xiang Gong of Xiyang, they all felt quite uncomfortable.

In fact, if it weren't for the chaos that the remnants of the Xiao clan had caused in the royal capital of Wei in the Great Liang, so that the Chu State saw the hope of defeating the Wei State, the Chu State would have been ready to order Shouling Jun Jingshe to recapture the royal capital Shouying - after all, one is the Qi State that set in the West Mountain after losing the King of Qi Lu Xi, and the other is the Wei State that is becoming stronger and stronger and faintly revealing the overlord posture of the Central Plains, the Chu State will naturally choose to seize the opportunity to severely damage the Wei State, and even destroy it in one go.

In comparison, what is Tian Tan? Without the loss of virtuous monarchs such as Lu Xi, the king of Qi, the Qi country is destined to weaken, and there is nothing to fear!

It's just that I didn't expect that this time Shouling Jun Jingshe led a million army to attack Wei, and even Wei was besieged by Korea, Qin, Sanchuan, Nangong and other forces.

It is no wonder that Shouling Jun Jingshe consciously returned to China without shame and killed himself in shame on the bank of the Chushui River.

When passing by Shouying in the distance, Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, looked indifferently at the royal capital that was still in the hands of Qi in the distance, and at this time on the tower of Shouying, Qi General Tian Tanyi frowned and looked at the army in the distance, identifying the banner of that army.

"The Tunyi Army? Childe Taku? …… Could it be Xiong Tuo, the son of Chu? ”

Touching the beard on his chin, Tian Tan frowned and muttered, "At this time, I led a large army to this place, is it to take the opportunity to seize power?" ”

Of course, Tian Tan also understood that this time might be a good time for Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, to seize the throne, after all, when Shouling Jun Jingshe led the defeated army to retreat to Chu Shui, he Tian Tan also fell into the well and gave the Chu army a hard blow.

"If Xiong Tuo, the prince of Chu, seizes power, he will inevitably recapture Shouying to increase his momentum, and I am afraid that this city will not be able to be protected at that time......

Tian Tan said secretly.
