Chapter 284 This journey has no return (1)
Xue Yiren stroked the new tombstone under the purple magnolia tree and asked Xue Jiuming: "Dad, what new name should we give to King Chen's son? We can't call him his real name, right?"
Xue Jiuming glanced at the words on the tombstone, "Tomb of Li Wei, the legitimate son of King Chen", thought for a moment, and said: "Just call him 'Xue Fan', what do you think?"
"Xue Fan?"
'The word, my daughter thinks it's very good."
Xue Jiuming lowered his head and looked at the purple magnolia petals that had been knocked all over the ground by last night's showers. He smiled and shook his head: "It's the 'fan' of 'fansheng', the 'fan' of 'fanjing'. This time Zhuge Dunji and Xiao Guozhu
Together, Chen Guo is doomed. The poor child will never know that he was actually born in Jinyang Palace in Fanjing of Chen Guo. When he grows up, I am afraid that Chen Guo will be disillusioned and Fanjing will be buried.
At that time, Zhuge Dunji wrote a song, in which there is a line: "Three thousand songs and dances in Beijing, fifty altars of fine wine from Orchid Spring, tasting hundreds of herbs in Shu alone, and being riddled with strange poisons and unable to die."
How did he know that today, such words would come true to King Chen's legitimate son? When the child was still in his infancy, he tried our Yaowang Mountain's "Qi-holding Gu" and came back to life. My dear, you don't have a brother. In the future,
, Dad will pass on everything he has learned throughout his life to that poor child.
I named him ‘Xue Fan’ because I wanted him to
Cut away the complicated memories of the past, but leave a benevolent heart to help the common people.
Even if I am insulted by the evil words of the world, I am willing to remove the strange poison from heaven and earth."

In Maung City of Chen State, the doors of every house were closed. Zhang Qi, the commander of Maung City, was standing on the city tower, discussing with Xiao Xun, the leader of Qi State, how to help Jiu County, a hundred miles away, to resist the Rong army.
Zhang Qi is the husband of Song Yun, the "Miaoyin Lady". Last year, Zhang Qi was promoted to Maung City, so Song Yun took her children and moved with her husband's family to Maang City. A few days ago, Yan Xiao sent an urgent letter from Fanjing, please
Song Yun and her family went with them to the Chu State for refuge, but Song Yun did not leave the Chen State. She thought that when the Chen State drove the Rong people out of Jinyang Pass, she would ask her husband to take another year off and accompany her and their children to Chu State.
I traveled around the country to visit Yan Xiao and Su Qin, and by the way, I brought some specialties from her hometown to the former "Maungcheng Su Qin".
Before Yan Xiao left, she asked someone to deliver two letters. When she arrived in Shu, she asked someone to deliver two more letters, but Song Yun ignored them. When she got the fourth letter, she was even a little angry. The enemy is coming, you guys
If you leave Chen Guo alone and go to Chu to seek refuge with your wealthy relatives and friends, do you want to drag me along with you to do such a forgetful thing?
Song Yun complained a few words to Zhang Qi. Yesterday, Zhang Qi praised his wife for her understanding of justice. At this moment, she regretted not letting her take the children with Yan Xiao, Zhao Qi, Su Yang, Su Liu, Yan Qing, Yan Xiu and the others.
Let’s leave Chen State together.
Zhang Qi saw dust suddenly flying on the official road in the distance, like black clouds pressing down on the area. The sound of horse hooves came in bursts, like rolling thunder. He felt a chill in his heart and asked: "Didn't Lord Xiao say categorically a few days ago, Rong?"
The main force of the Werewolf Division must attack a few small towns in Jiu County first? But...why did Xin Dujie's cavalry suddenly attack our Maung City? What should we do now?"
Xiao Xunyun said calmly: "What should we do? Otherwise, we invite Xin Dujie, the left leader of the Wolf Master, to come to the tower for a drink and enjoy the scenery?"
Zhang Qi saw that Xiao Xun's attitude suddenly became very strange, as if the matter had nothing to do with him, so he said dissatisfiedly: "I heard that the leader of the Xiao Kingdom led his troops to return to Qi, fought all the way to Jade City, and fought against the Song army. He never lost. How did he get here?"
We, the Chen State, haven’t given us proper guidance on how many battles to fight, and we are not allowed to use the tactics of the Rong people?”
Xiao Xun looked at the flying sand in the sky and laughed loudly. "Ming Cheng Ling, I am not a magician, how can I predict things like a god every time? If you want to blame me, I can only blame your king for hearing that his son died in Shu.
, and the elite of Shu did not come to aid Chen, so they became disorganized and turned to trust me."
Zhang Qi glared at Xiao Xun and pointed at the city: "Master Xiao! If the soldiers attack Maung City, you won't be able to escape! What countermeasures do you have?"
Xiao Xun did not answer and asked instead: "Can the five thousand defenders of Maung City defeat the twenty thousand Wolf Division cavalry? If I say, let's open the city gate and let them in to save a bloody battle, will you listen?"
Zhang Qi clenched his fist and said word by word: "Jinyang has been lost, Chen Guo can no longer abandon Maung City! If we open the city gate without a bloody battle, do we want me, the commander of Maung City, to become a traitor?" The sound of horse hoofs became louder and louder.
As they got closer, Zhang Qi could clearly see the black wolf head totem on the Wolf Master's banner.
Xiao Xun pointed to the Wolf Master's flag and said jokingly: "Mr. Maungcheng, look at the flag of the Rong tribe, does it look like... hanging a wolf's head and selling dog meat?"
Zhang Qi was so angry that he boldly grabbed the lapel of the leader of Qi State and shouted: "What good will it do to you if the Rong people attack Maung City? Once they come in, you and I will die here!"
Xiao Xun let Zhang Qi hold the hem of his clothes and said calmly: "Benefits? Of course there are some." Xiao Xun saw Zhang Qi's face was ashen, so he laughed and explained: "Mao Cheng Ling, since we
You are not far away from death, so I will let you know clearly.
For the leader of the Qi State, dying on the battlefield of the Chen State really had many benefits.
The first advantage of this is that my death will be blamed on your Chen State. Although the leader of Qi State died under the sword of the Rong people, he still died in Chen State’s Maocheng City. The King of Shu is chivalrous. If he hears about this
, will definitely never consider sending troops to aid Chen again. Shu will not aid Chen, and the military alliance between Qi, Wei, Chen, and Shu secretly breaks up, and no one will come to aid Chen again.
Therefore, the second benefit is naturally to destroy Chen. No matter how you look at it, the destruction of Chen was done by the Rong people. No one would blame the leader of Qi who died for Chen. The Rong destroyed Chen and closed our country of Qi.
What's the matter? All the countries in Kyushu will only praise me, Xiao Xun, for my awe-inspiring righteousness, and praise me, Qi State, for my righteousness and Bo Yuntian.
Then the third benefit is that the people of Kyushu praised the great righteousness of Qi while slandering Song and scolding Song for still containing the armies of Qi, Wei and Shu when Chen was in crisis and preventing Qi, Wei and Shu from sending troops to aid Chen. By then, Song would
Even if it has nothing to do with the Rong clan, everyone will still call it an ally!"
Zhang Qi stared at the leader of Qi with his mouth open, not even realizing that he had loosened his collar.
Xiao Xun straightened his clothes and continued: "And the last advantage is that only after I die, the position of King of Qi can be naturally inherited by the person who truly belongs to that position. Only if he ascends the throne as King of Qi, all the countries of Kyushu will
Only then is it possible to reunify. Only when all the countries are reunified can the land of Kyushu be restored to a peaceful and prosperous age!"

A few days later, King Wei opened a final letter in the Ren Hall of Lingxi Palace in Dongyang. There was no opening or signature, and only a Qi Baiyu chess piece from the Yilan Palace of Shu was attached.
Strong wind blows away rocks
Never see forever
Dark clouds cover the city
The evil spirit lingers
…
Fanjing singing and dancing break
Stop drinking in Liquor County
Jinyang Pass is closed
There is no piano in Maung City
…
The general has no return date
Soldiers on the battlefield
What do warriors fear?
Die without leaving a name
…
Now I come alone
arranging star chess
The lonely soul is buried
