Chapter 57
The general trend of the world, the long-term division must be united, and the long-term unity must be divided.

But at this time, it is time for all parties to show their special abilities and intrigue each other.

The battle provoked by Chu He has lasted for more than a month, and the two sides have reached a stalemate, and they are unwilling to retreat around Song County.

As the challenged person of this war, Xia Zhong was in the county government office with a group of generals, discussing the next countermeasures.

It took less than a year for him to conquer Song County completely, and the number of soldiers under him was insufficient, but the water and grass were luxuriant, and this year's harvest was excellent.

Chu He in Linxian County started to think about it, as the saying goes, "My neighbor stores grain and I store guns, and the neighbor is my granary." This year's harvest in Chu He's jurisdiction was extremely bad, so he turned around and turned to his neighbors.

The sudden attack stunned the unprepared Xia Zhong, and also knocked him out of his beautiful fantasy to accept the cruel reality.

He finally realized that in this troubled world, if he wanted the people to live well and realize his ambitions, he needed strength and became the strongest one.

The tenacious resistance of Song County also surprised the attacking Chu He. He knew that his food and grass would not last long. If Xia Zhong insisted on defending the city, he would not be able to defeat Song County in half a month.

An aide came up with a vicious idea, and Chu He readily agreed. He sent people to arrest all the people in the nearby villages, and took away all the food in the house. Then they gathered in front of the gate of Song County and tied them up. Let them cry out in pain, or let their wives and daughters be insulted to their faces.

Cannon fire, Ling Chi, cut in half, car crack.
In short, how cruel it is, doesn't Xia Zhong love the people?Didn't they keep saying that they want the common people to have enough food and clothing to live a good life?
Why don't you go out to fight when you see the people under your jurisdiction being tortured like this?
"My lord, that bandit Chu is clearly going to force us out of the city to fight, to decide the outcome, don't be fooled by them!" A general took the lead in expressing his opinion. There are many more people here than the common people outside.

"Chu thief chose this plan because there must be insufficient food and grass, so we have to force us to fight. If we continue to delay, we can force Chu thief back without damage, and even after the delay, we can fight back against Chu thief."

"Then watch them kill the people of Song County every day?!"

"The big picture matters!"

Xia Zhong has been silent, and most of the generals support staying behind closed doors. He also knows that the overall situation is the most important thing, and he also knows that avoiding the battle is the best choice.

but!

Doing so is also abandoning his ideals.

The generals quarreled without a result, so they simply stopped and waited for Xia Zhong to make a decision. This is also the responsibility that the lord should bear.

"I'll go out first, you wait for me for a while."

Xia Zhong hurried out the door, his star-like eyes darkened a bit, his youthful spirit seemed to have been worn down in the past few days, and a little bit of vicissitudes appeared.

Xiaobai jumped down from the desk and followed closely behind Xia Zhong, taking bigger steps with each step, Xia Zhong seemed to have made some kind of decision, his back gradually straightened, compared to before, he was more indomitable like a green pine and cypress tree , Tenacity to bear all the temperament.

Thoughts are flying in the eyes that cannot be seen clearly, making people unable to guess the thoughts, more like a qualified monarch.

Xia Zhong left the study room and went straight into the hall of the county yamen, there was actually an old man with white hair and white robe sitting here, with a fairy demeanor, a childlike face with white hair, two snow-like slender white eyebrows, hanging in the air without wind.

"My lord, have you considered it?" Seeing Xia Zhong approaching, the Taoist stood up and spoke with a calm expression, as if he had guessed something.

"Think about it." Xia Zhong's face was calm, suppressing his thoughts, "Cooperation is possible, but the conditions need to be changed."

"But it doesn't matter."

A young servant brought tea, and he came to the door to retreat, leaving only Xia Zhong and the Taoist talking in the house.

This Taoist claimed to be the suzerain of the Lingxi Sect, and said that the Lingxi Sect was good at stargazing. He watched the stars at night and found that Xia Zhong had the aura of a crape myrtle emperor, so he was willing to use the strength of the Lingxi Sect to support Xia Zhong in his struggle for hegemony.

The condition is that after unification, the Lingxi Sect must be made the state religion.

Xiaobai didn't go in, it never liked the twists and turns of human beings, so it crouched at the door, guarding the door for Xia Zhong, preventing anyone from breaking in.

The discussion between the two was very quick, but it was only a cup of tea time, the guest of honor had a good time, and the conversation was very happy.

But Xiaobai could tell that Xia Zhong's smile was very fake, like wearing a thick mask.

Sending away the members of the Lingxi sect, Xia Zhong hurried back to the study, and said only one word to the anxiously waiting generals.

"Wait."

He also ordered people to deliver food, and the generals were not allowed to leave, but no one could eat it except himself.

Except Xiaobai.

The generals looked at the appearance of Xia Zhong holding the winning ticket, full of doubts and wanted to ask but dared not ask. Xia Zhong usually has a good temper, but he is also a man of one word. At this time, everyone only thought that Chu He had angered him, no one thought Touch the bad luck of the lord.

Within half a day, some soldiers hurriedly shouted "urgent news".

Chu He's people outside the city withdrew.

Or come back in a big defeat, ten out of ten.

There was a group of immortals descending from the sky, the water was scorched by fire, ordinary soldiers couldn't help each other while waving their sleeves, the scene was bloody, but looking at the immortals standing in the air, they felt very beautiful, as if they were watching a wonderful performance.

Full sense of fragmentation.

After all, Chu He was just a mortal, and there was no immortal to help him, so he died at the hands of an old immortal with fluttering white hair immediately.

Song County won a big victory, and it can also take this opportunity to fight back and annex Chu He's territory.

In this way, Xia Zhong can become the one with the largest area in Guanzhou and the strongest.

The generals were overjoyed, they felt that they followed the right person, Xia Zhong is not only a wise king, but also has the help of immortals, wouldn't he be able to achieve great things in the future?
Everyone was laughing, Xia Zhong immediately rectified the army and ordered the pursuit, within a day, he took all Chu He's territory.

Startled the world.

Only Xiaobai knew that that night, Xia Zhong couldn't sleep all night, tossed and turned, and finally climbed up to the roof with it, lying on the cold tiles, looking at the bright and white silver moon that would never be moved by the world.

Since he came to Song County, he had never touched a drop of alcohol, so he broke his alcohol prohibition and once again drank his sorrows with alcohol.

Xiaobai could feel his sadness, but he didn't know the reason. Wasn't the war won?The people were also saved, and they could take the opportunity to expand their territory.

But Xiao Bai didn't ask, and jumped into Xia Zhong's arms, found a comfortable position, wrapped his tail around his neck, and quietly accompanied him.

"That day, it was the same moon as now, but now I am the only fox."

"Human beings are really short-lived."

After Xiaobai finished the last two sentences, he stood up and shook his body, shaking off the unsuitable melancholy and gloom, and returned to his usual jumpy, heartless appearance.

"I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"

Wen Yu caught Xiaobai who jumped over and put it on his shoulder, "Yes, Aunt Wei's stewed beef is pretty good. If you are not used to it, I will go to the city today and pack some snacks at Manxianglou .”

"Wow! Wen Yu, you are so kind!"

The moonlight shone like a shadow, gradually fading away according to the figures of one person and one fox.

"of course!"

 Xiaobai: I tell a good story, do you have any votes? (Looking forward) (Blinking fox eyes)
