The King of Fortune

Chapter 97

In Chongcheng, learning that Chong Heihu was killed and all the [-] elites he brought were destroyed, Chong Yingluan cried until he was in tears. With Jiang Xiong's comfort, he gradually stabilized his emotions and asked Jiang Xiong for advice on how to govern the country.

Chongcheng is the place where the Four Wars took place. The Chong clan was exiled here by Xia Jie, and later Shang Tang overthrew the Xia Dynasty. The Chong clan was freed from slavery because of their bravery in battle. After hundreds of years of development, they have changed from ordinary generals to nobles. , and finally took charge of Chongcheng and became a prince of a country.Compared with the other three vassals, the Chong family is full of legends.

Unlike the Ji family, the Chong family's honor today comes entirely from the imperial court. Even though King Zhou is immoral and the people are full of resentment, Chong Houhu is still loyal to him.After the death of Chonghouhu, Chongheihu came to the throne. Although his military strength has increased, his influence on northern Xinjiang has been weakened due to his improper position. When Chongheihu died, he also buried a large number of elites. As a successor with outstanding ability People, Chong Yingluan felt the crisis.

Not to mention other princes, Yanzhou Marquis Peng Zushou has always been ambitious, even when his father was there, he didn't buy it very much, if he knew that his father died in Xiqi, he would definitely take action.There is also Hou Suhu of Jizhou, who showed his sharpness and dared to oppose business with the power of a country, setting a precedent for the princes. This person holds an army of 10,000+, and his strength should not be underestimated.

Jiang Xiong pondered and said: "My son, there will be a plan in the end, which may solve the crisis."

Jiang Xiong has assisted Chong Heihu in governing Chongcheng for many years. Half of the people in the city are under his control. He is confident about killing Chongyingluan. So what can it do, at most it will be a situation where everything is destroyed.

Of course, it would be best if we could think of a way to deal with Chong Yingluan.

Jiang Xiong has his own plans. Based on Han Rong's strength and promotion speed, he may be transferred to Chaoge to take up an important military position in less than a year or two, or he may directly divide the land and become a town of princes. If there are soldiers and horses, they can also be reused.

Chong Yingluan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "I also ask General Jiang to enlighten me."

Jiang Xiong said frankly: "Unfortunately, the prince died in battle, and the son is young, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the public. Those conspirators hidden in the dark will definitely take action, and the dark tide is surging in the city. It is still those princes who are not lacking in ambition. You won’t just sit and watch the young master successfully ascend the throne and control the situation in Chongcheng. Therefore, instead of passively fighting, it is better to take the initiative to show them the strength of the young master, and then the young master will inherit the position of Beibohou again, and he will truly deserve his name!"

Chong Yingluan said in surprise: "You mean to send troops to attack one of the princes and kill the chickens to scare the monkeys."

Jiang Xiong said: "Originally this is the best way, but with the existing troops in Chongcheng, it is still difficult to defend the city. If we forcefully launch a war, it will be stretched."

"Then how to show the strength of this son."

Chong Yingluan was a little puzzled, Chong Heihu was not here for the past two months, he managed Chongcheng in an orderly manner, but that was because of Chong Heihu's majesty and nearly 20 elite teachers.

"Your Majesty, the meaning of the last general, you might as well go on a wild hunt in the past few days, shoot and kill a bear or tiger, and then go back to the city to publicize it. Those who oppose His Majesty's ascension to the throne must be afraid. To our advantage, the last general will come forward and attract more people to be used by the son. When the son succeeds in ascending the throne, even if those people have the heart, they will not be able to make much trouble. As long as the internal stability is stable, the princes who covet Chongcheng will not act rashly."

What Han Rong meant was to ask him to find a way to cause chaos in northern Xinjiang. Jiang Xiong thought about it, and finally came up with a solution, which was to let Chong Yingluan die in an accident, and the position of Beibohou was vacated. The princes in the country were not beaten one by one.

"good idea."

Chong Yingluan was overjoyed, he didn't expect Jiang Xiong to be so thoughtful about the problem, why didn't he realize it before.

……

On the outskirts of the city, in a forest, Chong Yingluan bent his bow like a moon, and shot an arrow at a black bear more than ten feet away.

"The prince is mighty!"

"The prince is mighty!"

Those personal soldiers all blushed with excitement, and shot the black bear to death with one arrow. It takes amazing strength. They are so big, let alone seen them, they have never even heard of them.

Chong Yingluan was startled, and then understood the key point, he smiled and ordered: "Come on, take this bear with you, and we will go back home."

"General Jiang, with your help, why should Ben Hou be afraid of those villains!"

Chong Yingluan got carried away with complacency, Jiang Xiong smiled coldly and said, "My lord, you are too happy, you must be aware of the crisis that Chongcheng is facing."

Chong Yingluan frowned, looked at him suspiciously, and said, "What do you mean by that?"

As soon as the words fell, there was the sound of fighting nearby, Chong Yingluan was shocked and saw that the dozens of soldiers he sent to get the results of the battle were killed in an instant, his face was flushed with anger, and he said angrily: " Jiang Xiong, how dare you betray me!"

Jiang Xiong sneered and said: "My son's words are wrong. The last general never said that he would be loyal to you, so how can he talk about betrayal. This Chongcheng is an important military site, how can it be handed over to you, a scumbag!"

Convincing Chongyingluan to go hunting in the city, Jiang Xiong has already made arrangements in secret. There are hundreds of masters ambushing in the woods, plus his own soldiers. With this power, it is easy to get rid of Chongyingluan.

"Jiang Xiong, man, what kind of benefits did they give you, to make you betray the Chong family?"

Hundreds of soldiers appeared all around, and these people surrounded him, Chong Yingluan's face turned pale, those people were really deliberate in order to deal with him.

Jiang Xiong said with a smile: "Chong Yingluan, I thought you were a character, but now it seems that I was wrong, you are far behind Chong Heihu. Well, for Chong Heihu's sake, I might as well tell you You, I won't let you be a fool."

Chong Yingluan's face was uncertain, and he said in surprise: "Don't you take refuge with those people in the dark, but with other forces."

Jiang Xiong shook his head and said: "This general knows practical things. Once Chong Heihu died, I surrendered to Marshal Han. This time, under his order, I will take your life from Chong Yingluan."

"What, you surrendered to Han Rong, so what happened to those hundreds of people you brought back?"

Chong Yingluan turned pale with shock, he never expected that Jiang Xiong would surrender to Han Rong, Yin Shang Qi was about to run out, following the court at this time, there is only one dead end, what did Jiang Xiong think.

Jiang Xiong smiled and said: "Hey, it was Marshal Han who instructed me to write a letter to my confidants when I return, so that hundreds of people will be there. My son, you usually only care about big things, and I have hundreds of confidants. If you haven't seen it, how can you doubt it!"

"So that's how it is. It's ridiculous that this son still relies on you as his confidant. It turns out that you have betrayed the Chong clan a long time ago. Jiang Xiong, I died at your hands today. When I go underground, I will definitely wait for you to see what you look like." to see my father."

Chong Yingluan was also a ruthless character. He knew that there was no hope of breaking through, and he didn't want to die in the hands of a villain like Jiang Xiong, so he resolutely chose to commit suicide.When Chong Yingluan's soldiers saw that their master was dead, they would choose to commit suicide one by one.

Jiang Xiong sighed, ordered people to bury the corpse underground, and led his troops back to the city.
