The Way of Rebirth

Wen Zhong's current mood was as if he had just faced death, or even when the God of Death had come to invite him, and suddenly someone said that he would be given a few more years to live. He was still regretting that he would die with hundreds of thousands of troops.

Here, unexpectedly, Kong Xuan arrived in such a timely manner, and killed four Western sect members in one move. Overjoyed, he led his troops to besiege Beihai, let's not talk about it for the moment.

It is said that Su Hu composed a counter-poem at the Meridian Gate, and someone had already informed Emperor Xin. Emperor Xin, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed in the Xianqing Hall, heard that Su Hu had composed a counter-poem and became furious. Previously, Beihai rebelled against the seventy-two princes.

, Now I didn’t expect that the Marquis of Jizhou would also rebel. Do you really think that you are incompetent and a coward? Emperor Xin snorted coldly in his heart, and was about to wave his hand to summon the attendants to invite King Wucheng to come and see him.

Suddenly, an attendant came to say: "Your Majesty, Fei Zhong and You Hun are outside here asking to see you!"

"What are they doing here?!" Di Xin frowned, "Let them come in to see me!"

"Yes!" The attendant walked out of the hall and announced that the two of them had entered the hall to meet the emperor. Not long after, Fei Zhong and Youhun ran into the hall and knelt in front of Emperor Xin: "Your Majesty, I heard that Su Hu dared to write an inscription on the Meridian Gate.

Counter-poetry, I’ll come here to take the blame!”

"What sin do you have?!" Di Xin asked strangely after hearing this, "Get up and speak!"

"I am guilty of death!" Fei Zhong was still kneeling on the ground. "If I hadn't offered my words, Su Hu would not have allowed Su Hu to insult the king like this. I am guilty of death. Please punish me!"

"Get up and talk!" Di Xin said loudly, seeing that the two men finally got up, "This matter has nothing to do with you. Now let me think about who should be sent to conquer Su Hu to show the majesty of the great merchant!"

"I have someone who can take on this role!" You Hun said.

"Oh?!" Di Xin said happily when he heard this, "Please tell me, my dear!"

"Old General Lu Xiong can take on this important task!" You Hun said, "The old general is well-organized and good at fighting. The Marquis of Jizhou is no match for him, so he can be dispatched!"

"Lu Xiong?!" Di Xin thought for a while and shook his head, "Old General Lu has been conquering various places in the southeast for our great merchants for many years. Now it's time to enjoy the blessings. The mere Marquis of Jizhou doesn't have to bother the old general to go out!"

"I have a few other people who can take on this important task!" Seeing that Emperor Xin disagreed, You Hun immediately said, "Yin Pobai and Chao Tian can also do it!"

"These two are generals guarding Chaoge, and there is no need to move lightly!" Di Xin shook his head again and said, and then looked at Fei Zhong beside him who was deep in thought. Di Xin asked strangely, "Fei Zhong, why don't you speak?

!”

"Your Majesty, I forgive you, but I was thinking about something, so I didn't say anything!" Fei Zhong knelt down and knelt on the ground after hearing this.

"Get up!" Di Xin frowned and said, "What are you thinking about?!"

"I'm wondering why Beibohou's subordinates like to rebel so much?!" Fei Zhong said, "First, Beihai Yuan Futong rebelled, and now Beibohou's subordinate Su Hu rebelled. Does it mean that Beibohou also has something against the king in his heart?

Are you thinking?!"

"You don't have to beat around the bush!" Di Xin immediately knew what Fei Zhong meant, "I will send Bei Bohou Chonghou Hu to conquer!"

"Your Majesty, Shengming!" Fei Zhong said.

"You all stand down!" Di Xin said, "I want to take a rest!"

"Your Majesty, please leave!" Upon seeing this, Fei Zhong and Youhun bowed and said, and then exited the Xianqing Hall.

"These two people," Di Xin shook his head, "cooperate very well!" After that, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

In the morning of the next day, Emperor Xin sat in the main hall, looked at the ministers below, and then said: "Now that the Hou Suhu of Jizhou openly wrote an anti-poetry at the Meridian Gate to rebel against the great merchants, what do all the beloved ministers think I should do?!

"

The squad walked out of Yin Ruibei and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, Su Hu does not know the principles of the monarch and his ministers, does not abide by the laws of the country, and actually rebels. I am willing to lead an army of 100,000 to destroy him for your Majesty!"

"General Yin is truly the pillar of the country!" Di Xin nodded, "But this Chao Ge cannot be separated from General Yin's guarding, so the general should not take action! Where is Bei Bohou?!"

"Your Majesty Chonghou Hu, please forgive me!" After hearing this, Chonghou Hu, the Marquis of Beibo, came out of class and knelt on the ground and said.

"What's your crime?!" Di Xin asked.

"Su Hu, one of my subordinates, dared to offend the king and rebel against the great merchant. I am willing to go and arrest this thief to apologize!" Chonghou Hu said while leaning over.

"I want you to be loyal, so please lead some troops there!" Di Xin said, "But you still have to strictly monitor your subordinates!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your holy grace!" Chonghou Hu kowtowed and thanked him, then stood up and walked out of the hall, leading his family and generals to their territory without mentioning...

The merchant in the palace came out and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to say!"

"Old Prime Minister, please speak!" Emperor Xin said when he saw Shang Rong leaving work.

"I thought that Su Hu rebelled and asked for forgiveness from the king!" Shang Rong said, "The reason why Su Hu rebelled was only because the king believed the slander and wanted to take Su Hu's daughter as his concubine. Su Hu did this out of anger.

Such a thing, so if the king does not forgive Su Hu at this time, I am afraid that the people will spread that the king is greedy for beauty!"

"What the old prime minister said makes sense!" Di Xin smiled awkwardly, "I wonder what the old prime minister thinks of me?!"

"With the character of Chonghou Hu, if we go to conquer Jizhou, I am afraid that if the city of Jizhou is destroyed, life will be ruined, so the king should send another person to advise Su Hu so that the king's sage can reach the world!" Shang Rong said.

"That's right," Di Xin nodded when he heard this, "Which member of the Qing family is willing to share my worries for me?!"

"Your Majesty, I am willing to go!" Jichang, the Marquis of Xibo, came out of the squad and said, "The relationship between Jizhou Marquis and Jichang is still good. Su Hu's rebellion this time is due to a last resort. I am willing to go to persuade Su Hu to show your kindness!

"

"You are a great prince. Going to Jizhou may be a loss of status!" Di Xin said, "Why don't you write a letter and send someone to deliver it!"

"Yes!" Ji Chang said after hearing this.

"In that case, let's stop here today!" After Di Xin said that, he stood up and exited the main hall and walked straight to Xianqing Hall. When he entered the main hall, there was already an attendant waiting to hand him a letter.

"What is this?!" Di Xin asked as he took the letter.

"Good news from Beihai. Kong Xuan, the commander-in-chief of the Hedu Pass, went to lead the army to help the grand master and defeated the thirty-one princes of Beihai! Special good news!" said the attendant.

"Oh?!" Emperor Xin was overjoyed when he heard this, "I was worried about the Grand Master's war in Beihai. I didn't expect that Commander Kong went there and got such good news! This Commander Kong is really my most important minister.

ah!"

"The Grand Master once said in his heart that Beihai Yuan Futong actually colluded with the Taoist cultivators. The Grand Master was almost killed. Fortunately, Mr. Kong saved him in time and survived!" said the attendant.

"Is there nothing wrong with the Grand Master?!" Emperor Xin was surprised when he heard this, "I didn't expect that Taoists would intervene in Beihai. I wonder how it is possible that the Grand Master's power has not put down the rebellion until now!"

"The grand master is safe and sound, and the grand master said that within seven days of General Kong's departure, Beihai will be calmed down!" said the attendant.

"Very good! Very good!" Di Xin nodded and smiled, "If the Grand Master returns, I can finally feel at ease!"

Let’s not mention the internal affairs of Xianqing Hall. After Su Hu left Chaoge and returned to Jizhou, he ordered Jizhou to take strict precautions and sent scouts dozens of miles away to search for information from all sides, causing chaos in Jizhou city. Jumping.

The eldest son Su Quanzhong asked: "Father, why did my father come back from Chaoge and feel like he is facing an enemy?! Is there something wrong?!"

"When today's emperor is out of power and all the princes in the world are on pilgrimage, two treacherous thieves, Fei Zhong and You Hun, did not accept my gift. They are resentful in their hearts and secretly tease me about my daughter's beauty. The foolish king announces that I have entered the palace and wants to select my daughter as his concubine. At that time, I reprimanded him face to face, but Hunjun refused to listen and forced me to send my daughter as a gift. At that time, I was very unhappy and even wrote a poem and posted it on the Meridian Gate to oppose the merchants. This time, Hunjun will call the princes to come to question him. All the generals Listen to the order: Train the troops and horses, and use rolling wood and cannon stones for the city walls to prevent the risk of attack." Su Hu said angrily.

Su Quanzhong and others were shocked when they heard this, and then they followed Su Hu's orders and defended day and night without daring to slack off. They only waited for the Shang army to come to fight. Within a few days, scouts came to report to Beibo Hou Chonghou Hu. He led a group of people to come, which was only three miles away from Jizhou City.

"It came very quickly!" Su Hu sighed when he heard this, "You should be careful, this Bei Bohou is our capital, there must be some experts in the army!"

"Father, how about I lead some troops to attack?!" Su Quanzhong asked, "Now that Chonghou Hu is leading the army, he must be unprepared!"

"No!" Su Hu stopped him, "This Chonghou Hu is not such a weak general. How can he not be prepared for this? Let's go and have a look!" After saying that, he ordered people to open the gate of Jizhou and led the army and horses to meet him. See Chonghou’s tiger army.

Chonghou Hu is sitting on a free horse, wearing a flying phoenix helmet, golden mail, a red robe, a jade belt, and a purple crotch. He carries his sword on his saddle and leads the generals out of the camp, unfurling two dragon and phoenix embroidered flags. Later, the eldest son Chong Yingbiao held down the position.

Su Hu led the army and came forward. When he saw Chonghou Hu, he immediately bowed and said: "Xianhou, you are well and well. I am not wearing talent and armor, so I can't do all the courtesy. Today, I have no way, I despise the virtuous and focus on sex, I don't think about the country's foundation, and I listen to slander. As he said, he forcibly took the daughter of his ministers as his concubine, indulged in debauchery and drunkenness, and soon the world was in chaos. If the talented people guard their own borders, why did the wise prince raise this unknown master?"

Chonghou Hu was furious when he heard this and said: "You disobeyed the emperor's edict and wrote an anti-poetry at the Meridian Gate. You are a traitor and should not be punished for your crime. Now that you are being questioned by the imperial edict, you should be on your elbows and knees at the gate. How dare you speak cleverly and support?" The soldiers penetrate the armor, so they can be raped!" After saying this, he looked back at the generals on the left and right: "Who will help me capture this traitor?"

Before he finished speaking, there was a general under the left sentry, wearing a phoenix-winged helmet, gold armor, a red robe, a lion belt, and a green horse. He said sternly: "At the end of the day, the general will capture this traitor!" The man and the horse rolled away. In front of the army.

Here Su Quanzhong, the son of Su Hu, saw that the general in the formation was in the lead. He rode his horse and waved his halberd in Cihuli and said: "Slow down!" Quanzhong recognized the general Mei Wu.

Mei Wu said: "Su Quanzhong, your father and son have rebelled and offended the emperor. If you don't turn over and accept the crime, but you want to resist the heavenly soldiers, you will bring about the disaster of annihilation." Hearing this, Quanzhong patted his horse and waved his halberd without saying a word, and stabbed him in the chest, Mei Wu took it. The ax struck each other in the face.

Twenty rounds later, Su Quanzhong summoned up his energy and stabbed Mei Wu to death with a halberd. Seeing that Su Quanzhong had won, Su Hu urged his army to attack. At this time, Chonghou's tiger army was much weaker because of the general's death, but with the large number of people, Su Hu's army was resisted.

Quanzhong was brave and unstoppable in the army. Suddenly he saw Chonghou Hu. He spurred his horse to charge towards Chonghou Tiger. Seeing that Su Quanzhong was so brave and unstoppable, Chonghou Tiger felt timid and immediately dodged away. How could Su Quanzhong let him go?

He left and continued to kill Chonghou Hu. At this time, Jin Cai, Huang Yuanji, and Chong Yingbiao came to attack Su Quanzhong. Su Quanzhong saw that it was difficult to kill Chonghou Hu and retreated. Chonghou Hu also led the army and retreated ten miles. This battle

Su Hu's army had a slight advantage.

After Su Huming Jin retreated his troops, he returned to the palace and asked the generals how to defeat the enemy. Zhao Bing, the deputy general, came forward and said: "Although the king has won today, there seems to be no time to fight. The former wrote an anti-poem, today he will kill the army and behead the generals. If you refuse,

It is an unforgivable crime to be an enemy of the king. Moreover, all the princes in the world are not just Houhu. If the imperial court is furious and orders a few more soldiers to come, Jizhou will be no more than a small area. The so-called "throwing a stone into water" will be seen immediately.

The situation is dangerous. If you follow the general's foolish opinion, "If you don't do one, you won't stop", Hou Hu will be defeated again, but only ten miles away. If he is unprepared, the man will take off the bridle, the horse will take off the bridle, secretly rob the camp, and kill him without any armor left.

Know our interests and disadvantages. Then we will look for the virtuous princes along the way and rely on them, so that the common people can advance and retreat, and the clan can be preserved. I don’t know what your noble will is?"

Su Hu was overjoyed when he heard this, nodded and said: "Yes, Chonghou Hu is definitely unprepared. Quanzhong will lead three thousand troops out of the west gate to ambush ten miles away. Chen Jizhen will command the left camp, Zhao Bing will command the right camp, and I will command the middle camp. Wait until dusk.

, Roll up the flags and stop the drums, everyone has their flags in their hands, all the horses have taken off their bridles, listen to the cannon as the signal, follow me into Chonghou's tiger army, don't try to defeat the enemy!"

"Yes!" All the generals in the palace responded, and then they left the main hall to prepare the army and horses, not to mention the matter.

Let us say that Chonghou Hu led the defeated army and retreated ten miles to camp and invite the generals to come and discuss matters.

"Now that the traitor Su Hu has won the round, what do you think I should do next?!" Chonghou Hu asked.

"Father, now that Su Hu's army is victorious and their momentum is very high, I think we should wait a few days before starting the expedition!" Chong Yingbiao said.

"Hmph!" Chonghou Hu snorted coldly, "How can you increase other people's ambition and destroy your own prestige?!"

"Chitose!" General Huang Yuanji said aloud, "Now that our army's momentum has weakened, I'm afraid it will not be easy to confront Su Hu's army now!"

"Is that so..." Chonghou Hu fell into deep thought after hearing this, and smiled for a long time, "This Su Hu must have some evil plot against me. Humph, let them come back tonight without any chance of return!"

"What does Chitose mean by this?!" Jin Cai asked.

"When Su Hu saw our army's defeat today, he must have thought that we were unprepared at night and wanted to attack me secretly. If General Huang hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have thought of it!" Chonghou Hu said with a smile, "Generals, please

Go on like this..."

That night, Su Hu led a large army and lay in ambush not far from Chonghou's tiger army. When the first watch came, he sent an order to Su Quanzhong. Immediately, he saw the cannon being fired with a sound like thunder, which shook the sky and the earth. Su Quanzhong led three thousand cavalry.

They shouted together and rushed into the Chonghou Tiger Camp, only to find that there was no one in the camp.

"No, we've fallen into a trap!" Su Quanzhong was horrified when he saw this, "Get out quickly!" Just as Su Quanzhong finished speaking, he saw torches lighting up around the camp, and then Chonghou's tiger army poured out, all holding bows and arrows to shoot.

To the three thousand cavalry.

A rain of arrows fell, and suddenly three thousand troops were seen crying. Everyone was pierced by arrows, and Su Quanzhong was also hit by several arrows. Fortunately, Su Hu, who noticed something was wrong, led three groups of people to come to the rescue.

, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"Hahaha..." Chonghou Hu looked at the defeated Su Hu army and said with a smile, "In this way, we are even! Order to besiege the city tomorrow!"

On the second day, Chonghou Hu led the army to surround Jizhou City. Sometimes Chonghou Hu's younger brother Chongheihu came to help. This Chongheihu was born with a face like the bottom of a pot, a red beard under the sea, and two white eyebrows.

His eyes are like gold plating, he wears a crown of flying beasts with nine clouds and blazing flames, he wears chain mail, a big red robe, and a white jade belt around his waist. He rides on a beast with flaming eyes and golden eyes, and uses two golden axes. He also has the strange skills taught by Master Jie, and he is good at it.

How to take people.

When Su Quanzhong saw Chonghou Hu's army approaching, he was furious and refused to listen to his father Su Hu's stop, so he led his army and horses out to meet the enemy. When Chong Heihu saw this man, he was overjoyed and immediately asked his brother Chonghou Hu for orders to capture this man.

Chong Hou Hu was previously oppressed by Su Quanzhong and was resentful of this man. Seeing that his brother wanted to capture him, he disagreed, so he agreed. Upon hearing this, Chong Heihu led three thousand crow soldiers and came out to meet him.

"You thief, call Chonghou Hu out to fight with me, you are no match for me!" Su Quanzhong shouted loudly when he saw that the person coming was not Chonghou Hu.

"My dear nephew, I think you should surrender quickly. If this continues, you are no match for me!" Chong Heihu laughed and cursed back.

"Don't underestimate me!" Su Quanzhong was furious when he heard this. He danced his halberd and stabbed Chonghei Tiger.

"What an impatience!" Chong Heihu laughed and waved his big ax to block the painted halberd. Then the two started fighting in front of the formation. After a while, Chong Heihu felt that he could not resist Su Quanzhong, so he swung the ax and turned around to dial the gold.

The beast ran away.

"Where are the thieves going?" Su Quanzhong was furious when he saw this, and he sat down on his white horse and chased after him. Unexpectedly, Chong Heihu hung the big ax on his waist, took out the gourd on his back, opened the top of the gourd, and muttered something.

After a while, he saw a burst of black smoke coming out of the gourd, turning into a net and going towards Su Quanzhong's net. Su Quanzhong didn't check for a moment and was trapped by the big net from his horse. Chong Heihu was overjoyed and moved the golden-eyed beast back to capture Su Quanzhong.

.

"Alas..." Su Hu, who was guarding the wall, sighed as he looked at Su Quanzhong being captured.

"Bohou, why don't I go and rescue the young general?!" Zhao Bing said when he saw this.

"No need!" Su Hu stopped him, "Based on my relationship with Chong Heihu, my son is fine. I'm just worried that my daughter may not be safe this time!"

"This..." All the generals looked at each other in shock when they heard this.

"You don't know that Chong Heihu is on good terms with Su Lai. Although he captured Quan Zhong this time, he will definitely keep him alive out of love!" Su Hu said, "What I'm worried about is if this Chonghou Tiger

The army is retreating, and if we attract the man from Hedu Pass, I'm afraid we will only be able to capture him without help!"

"That's right!" When the generals heard this, they remembered the terribleness of the army in the pass and the powerful strength of the general soldiers when they passed Hedu Pass to pay homage to Chaoge. They suddenly became worried in their hearts.

"This Chong Heihu must have come here to persuade me..." Su Hu looked at Chong Heihu under the city and said, "But how can I send my daughter to the palace and let everyone in the world think that I, Su Hu, am

A villain who trades his daughter for fame and fortune?!"

"Master Marquis..." the generals sighed after hearing this.

"Forget it, the boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge!" Su Hu sighed, turned around and walked towards the commander's mansion.

Under the city, Chong Heihu looked at Su Hu leaving and thought to himself: "Brother Su, it's better to make a decision quickly. I will go to convince you tomorrow..."
