Xiao Heng did not hesitate anymore, lifted up his clothes, knelt on the ground, and said solemnly: "The troubled times have come. Whether the northwest is a disaster depends entirely on the adults' thoughts. My uncle said that only the Governor can take on the three major tasks of survival and safety in the northwest!"

Zhu Lingyue said "Oh", and Xiao Heng continued: "Old man is both civil and military, this is already well-known to everyone in the world. Chu Huan attempts to take advantage of the chaos and must not let him make trouble in the northwest. Now Jinhe and He prefectures in Xiguan have raised troops to resist Chu Huan's tyranny. My uncle only hopes that the adults can come forward and suppress Chu Huan!"

"Suppress Chu Huan?" Zhu Lingyue said lightly: "How to suppress it? Chu Huan and I are both the governor. Could it be that my governor said a few words and he would listen to me?"

"If he really doesn't know how to be ungrateful, then beat him!" Xiao Heng said in a deep voice: "Chu Huan is a yellow-haired man. If he doesn't let him care, he really thinks he is a character."

Zhu Lingyue laughed in silence and said, "Beat?" He smiled and said, "Nephew Xiao Shi, are you confused? If I go to beat Chu Huan, wouldn't it be like rebellion?"

Xiao Heng shook his head and said, "Do you forget the Qu Chuli Rebellion?"

"Qu Chuli?" Zhu Lingyuesuo raised his eyebrows.

"During the Dahua Dynasty, Qu Chuli led his troops to rebellion. He started from the northern border and was domineering. Finally, he rebelled and captured the capital." Xiao Heng stared at Zhu Lingyue's eyes and said slowly: "This has caused a dispute between heroes. Today's Chu Huan is so similar to Qu Chuli back then, and he is also busy to eliminate dissidents. Such disasters can even be seen clearly by a younger generation like Xiao Heng. Can't you see clearly by lord?"

Zhu Lingyue gently stroked his beard without moving.

"Chu Huan has already caused trouble. Lord is a great hero. Should I wait for Chu Huan to cause greater disaster?" Xiao Heng's eyes twitched, "Once he grows up, it will be a great misfortune for the entire northwest. At that time, the people in the northwest will suffer... Eliminate the disaster invisible, so that the people can avoid disaster!"

Zhu Lingyue sighed: "Since that's the case, why can't Governor Xiao sit still?"

Xiao Heng smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, you should know that the prestige of my uncle is a world of difference compared to that of my uncle. If he takes action rashly, he will be afraid that it will be counterproductive. Only with the help of the adults, will the northwest follow you in a wave, and my uncle will definitely raise his troops to follow you." He paused and sneered, "If the whole northwest is opposed to Chu Huan, how could he stay? He would not even keep him if he wanted to stay."

Zhu Lingyue smiled and said, "In this way, Governor Xiao also has a lot of objection to Chu Huan?"

"It's true!" Xiao Heng said: "When my uncle sent my nephew to come, he had already prepared for war in Beishan. As long as the adults gave the order, the Beishan army would definitely obey the adults' order!"

"Assess the order of this governor?" Zhu Lingyue laughed and said, "Governor Xiao likes to joke. He is the Governor of Beishan, so why should he obey the order of this governor!"

"My uncle said that he is from the northwest. In times of crisis, the northwest must unite together." Xiao Heng explained: "The Lord is the banner of the northwest and the real king of the northwest. The three northwest roads should all obey the order of the Governor. In times of crisis, the heaven will give great responsibilities. I also ask the Governor to consider the people and take on the great responsibilities!"

Zhu Lingyue just smiled faintly and didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Xiao Heng was still talking. Zhu Lingyue had already raised his hand to stop him and said, "Forget it, I have understood what you said. Go back and tell Governor Xiao that I am grateful for his respect, but Governor Xiao is respectful and he claims to be not high in prestige. That is just a humble word. Tell him that I respect him very much. He raised his arms and shouted. Even if others did not respond, I will follow Governor Xiao to support the country!" He waved his hand, and the soldiers who led the horse for Zhu Lingyue were immediately led by the horse. Without waiting for Xiao Heng to say more, Zhu Lingyue turned over the horse, held the reins in his hand, turned his head to look at Xiao Heng, and smiled and said, "There are many good horses here. If there are any one who can be seen by Xiao Shiniang, just choose a few horses back." Without further ado, he slapped the horse and left.

Of course, Chu Huan could not have known that Xiao Huanzhang sent Xiao Heng to see Zhu Lingyue secretly.

Among the iron horses and golden swords, he has embarked on the road to quelling chaos.

He had never been so majestic. He had nearly 20,000 troops under his command set out from Shuoquan and headed straight for Hezhou.

Chu Huan actually felt very relaxed. With 20,000 soldiers and horses, he always had a feeling that he was taking nearly 20,000 people to fight. He put on the wolf armor helmet he got from Xiliang. This rare armor was worn on his body. Chu Huan even felt that this armor seemed to be done specifically for him by God, which was extremely suitable for his body.

The thunder and fire kirin under the crotch seemed to sense the arrival of war, and seemed extremely excited. During the march, they sniffed from time to time, and the horses around them dared not approach them easily.

Although Chu Huan did not set out at the first time, he made the war arrangements as soon as possible.

The war was about money and food, but what Chu Huan lacked the most now was money and food. Fortunately, there was a certain amount of military food in Pingxi Army. The gentry in Shuoquan, led by the seven surnames of Xiguan, donated part of the food to support Governor Chu in order to support the first battle to quell the rebellion. Of course, this part of the food was registered. Chu Huan said it very clearly that the government borrowed grain, and the food owed by the government would definitely be returned with a lot of stone.

Most gentry didn't care about such words. When Dongfang Xin was there, he forced money and food to be collected many times, which was also a matter of letting go. Once the turmoil was successfully quelled, it would compensate everyone.

Now that Dongfang Xin is dead, the money and food that has been plundered will certainly not be able to come back.

Originally, Xuanyuan Sheng volunteered to quell the rebellion, but Chu Huan went to war in person. He had to send a signal that the governor of Xiguan would never be merciless towards the rebellion.

Fang Rushui went to Jiazhou under the order of Xuanyuan Shengcai. He thought it was not easy to confiscate military power, but the facts were much easier than expected. Fang Rushui successfully acquired military power. The military affairs of Jiazhou had just been handled, and Chu Huan sent people to Jiazhou. He transferred a battalion of troops from Jiazhou and brought back to Shuoquan by Fang Rushui.

After the arrival of the battalion of troops brought back by Fang Rushui, Shuoquan's troops had reached the fifth battalion, which was nearly 30,000 troops. Shuoquan is the prefecture of Xiguan and a strategic location. Moreover, Xixia Mountain is intensively making salt. Of course, Chu Huan could not transfer all the troops in Shuoquan in Yuezhou to the front line, leaving two battalions of troops, which were only for Xuanyuan Sheng to stay in Shuoquan to prevent accidents.

Now that Xiguan is in turmoil, even Chu Huan dares not guarantee whether anyone will suddenly attack Shuoquan City after he goes to war.

The recruits Pei Ji trained were not yet mature, but they were still led by Pei Ji to follow Chu Huan on the battlefield. For real soldiers, real training is on the battlefield.

In addition to Pei Ji, Fang Rushui and Han Ying also went to the battle.

Chu Huan was not very proficient in the marching method, but with Pei Ji around him, this was naturally solved. The army was divided into front army, central army and rear army, with one general each. Fang Rushui was the general of the front army, and Han Ying was the general of the rear army. Chu Huan was the general of the entire army, but also the general of the central army. He was in charge of the central army. Each general had no special generals and generals. As for Ruohuo, team, flags and others rewarded and punished. Under Pei Ji's guidance, Chu Huan also ordered one by one. He did everything himself, and with the assistance of Pei Ji, everything was well organized and well-informed.

The soldiers were led by Chu Huan this time. At first, many people were suspicious. Many people doubted whether Chu Huan was really talented in commanding troops. They were not sure. Some even suspected that Chu Huan went on the battle in person and was just showing off his might. However, seeing Chu Huan's arrangements were quite smooth, and in an understatement, the arrangements were thoughtful and the generals were quite popular.

The northwest was strong and the wind and sand in Yuezhou was really not small. It seemed that God was deliberately trying to test Chu Huan's perseverance and asked him questions. Half the march, there were gloomy weather and the wind and sand suddenly appeared. It was difficult to see clearly a few miles away, and the vision was blurred, which increased the difficulty of the march. Chu Huan sent many scouts to inquire around, and must have figured out the situation around him.

Chu Huan was very clear that the rebellion in the Jin and He prefectures was a rebellion that he had to quell. This war was of great importance. Once it failed, he would definitely have no foothold in Xiguan. Although he led nearly 20,000 troops this time, his troops were above the rebels, he knew that the rebels had now taken over Hezhou City. Although Hezhou City was not as large as Shuoquan City, it was not a small city. Once the army arrived, it would be impossible for the rebels to go out to fight with the rebels. The biggest possibility was to stay in the door and hold the city.

The marching was not only a few days, but the garrisons he chose every day were told by Pei Ji, and Chu Huan then ordered the entire army. However, the camp had many considerations. Chu Huan used to receive military books about the military formations given by Pei Ji, but now he is following him, in actual combat marches, and learn from Pei Ji's teachings.

"The most important thing for sending troops to combat the rebellion is only four words." Under the night sky, the sky and the earth were dark, and the wind and sand were like ghost howlings. Chu Huan and several important generals in the army held military meetings in the camp. Pei Ji looked calm and pointed to the military map spread on the table. His voice was slow: "Fast battle and quick decision. This battle must end in the shortest time, otherwise it will be very unfavorable to us!"

"Mr. Pei's words are of course correct." Han Ying said solemnly: "But I have heard of Hu Zongmao, a general of Xun's character, about his temperament. Although this person is indecisive in his work, he is cautious and dare not take risks easily... According to my estimate, he will not have any other choice this time, and he can only gather all his troops in Hezhou City and defend Gucheng."

Fang Rushui also nodded slowly and said, "This is inevitable. He will not risk going out of the city to fight, nor will he even plant ambush troops to attack us. We know very well about him, and he also knows that our food and grass are not enough to last for too long. Moreover, he knows very well that there is not much food and grass in Xiguan, and our logistics is the biggest problem at the moment. He knows in his heart that as long as we can stick to Hezhou City, when our food and grass are exhausted and our morale is sluggish, he will win!"

"It's not just a problem of food and grass." Pei Ji said: "The most important issue of people's hearts. If the battle is quick and decisive, all the forces that are ready to move in Xiguan will not dare to act rashly. However, once they are consumed in Hezhou, the longer the time, the more unimaginable the consequences will be...!" He glanced at Chu Huan and said: "Duke Chu, I want to see that we are defeated, but there are many people here!"
