Chapter 1974: Plan to Reach the Top of Luoshan Mountain!

? In a sense, from that time on, Zhang Shougui became the undisputed emperor of Youzhou. People in Youzhou only knew that there was Zhang Shougui, but they did not know that there was an emperor. 35xs

That was all before. As long as Zhang Shougui could hold the borders of Youzhou, no one could do anything to him. But now, with a big defeat, all his capital was lost.

"They dare!"

Hearing Zhang Shougui's words, An Yaluoshan suddenly raised his head, with an angry look on his face:

"Whoever dares to change his adoptive father, Ha'er and the Youzhou generals will never agree!"

"Yes, we Youzhou generals will never agree!"

In the main hall, a group of Youzhou generals also echoed, and their voices shook the hall.

"Father, there are frequent changes in the court now, and the Holy Emperor is also very different from before. It shouldn't be to this point, right?"

An Yaluoshan grabbed Zhang Shougui's sleeve and said.

"No one likes a loser. We won the Youzhou War after all. The imperial court may not replace me, but we have to guard against it. In all dynasties, it is not uncommon for people to be relieved of military power because of a defeat. This has already happened with It has nothing to do with whether there is a wise king or a faint king in the court. If it is a faint king, our situation may be even more troublesome."

"Youzhou is my life's work. It must not fall into the hands of others. I will never make wedding clothes for others. If something unexpected happens this time and the court wants to replace me, I will recommend you to temporarily replace me. I have already written the position of the Protector and the memorial."

"You have just won a great victory in Youzhou. The Holy Emperor must have heard of your reputation. Moreover, you are a local general in Youzhou and are most familiar with the Northeast. If you add my recommendation, the imperial court will definitely not refuse!"

Zhang Shougui put a hand on An Yaluoshan's right shoulder. His eyes were deep, as if he had already seen through everything, and he had arranged everything properly.

On the ground, An Yaluoshan was shocked when he heard Zhang Shougui's words. He was obviously a little surprised, and there seemed to be a hint of touch in his eyes.

But the next moment, Zhang Shougui's voice immediately reached his ears:

"As long as you take control of the Anton Protector's Mansion on my behalf, and I will work hard at that time, it will only take two years at most before I can return to Youzhou. At that time, you and I will renew our relationship as father and son, and Youzhou will return to Once you are under my control, my father will never treat you badly!"

Hearing these words, An Yaluoshan's eyes turned cold, and there was an imperceptible sneer at the corner of his mouth, but he soon put on a sincere look and said gratefully:

"Thank you, foster father!"

At this time, a sudden violent cough sounded in the hall. After Zhang Shougui said these words, he seemed to have exhausted his energy. The look in his eyes quickly faded, his face turned pale, and he coughed violently again. 35xs

An Yaluoshan immediately jumped up from the ground and supported Zhang Shougui.

"Father, how are you?"

An Yaluoshan supported Zhang Shougui and winked at Tian Qianzhen and Cui Qianyou behind him:

"Hurry up and get the medicine!"

In just a moment, a bowl of black, thick concoction was immediately served.

"Father, this is the most important thing. You must take care of yourself. This bowl of concoction is good for your body. Let the child serve you and drink it."

An Yaluoshan looked sincere, lowered his head, raised his eyebrows and said respectfully.

"After all these years, you are still the best to my father."

Zhang Shougui looked filled with emotion. He took the medicine bowl directly from An Yaluoshan's hand and drank it all in one gulp.

After taking the medicine, Zhang Shougui quickly went to bed under the care of his maid.

In the main hall, all the generals also retreated.

After a while,

An Yaluoshan walked out of the main hall and looked back. His innocent and sincere face, which even looked a little ridiculous, suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a face that was vicious and malicious, but also a little cunning. .

Without staying in the Duhu Mansion, An Yaluoshan left straight away, and just a few miles away, Cui Qianyou, Tian Qianzhen, Tian Chengsi, Gao Shang and others came to greet him as if they had made an appointment in advance. 35xs

"My lord, this war is a once-in-a-lifetime battle, and it is also when Zhang Shougui is at his weakest. Why don't we just kill him and end it once and for all, but my lord still wants to save him?"

The first one to speak was Cui Qianyou.

It has been a few days since the war ended. An Yaluoshan has been serving Zhang Shougui, riding in front of and behind the horse. He has not had the opportunity to ask this question until now.

In the battle a few days ago, Zhang Shougui was in great danger. Cui Qianyou was originally planning to attack Zhang Shougui from behind and cooperate with Yuan Gaisuwen to kill him with one blow. Who would have expected that An Yaluoshan came out from the side and not only stopped him, but also Rescued Zhang Shougui from Yeon Gaesumun.

Including now, the generals wanted to directly poison Zhang Shougui's medicine, but they were rejected by An Yaluoshan and Gaoshang.

"You still don't understand that Zhang Shougui does want to be killed, but not now. Zhang Shougui is still valuable to us!"

An Yaluoshan's body slowly straightened up, his eyes were stern, and bursts of ambition burst out from his eyes.

"After all, the Anton Guard Army was established by Zhang Shougui, and there are quite a few generals and soldiers who obey him. Moreover, this is the territory of the Tang people after all. I am a Hu, and I need Zhang Shougui's recognition to stabilize my current position. . Also, didn’t you hear that? Zhang Shougui wants to recommend me to be the Guardian of Anton!"

After talking about it, An Yaluoshan's eyes showed a hint of sarcasm.

Before, he was thinking about how to get Zhang Shougui's help to command the Anton Guard Army legitimately, especially to gain the recognition of the people of Anton. However, he really didn't expect that Zhang Shougui actually took the initiative to write a letter of recommendation for him, asking him to directly Temporarily acting as the guardian of Anton, it directly saved him a lot of effort.

This was definitely an unexpected surprise.

"Zhang Shougui won't be here for long."

At this moment, Gao Shang on the side suddenly spoke:

"The news has spread from the capital that the lord has been promoted to the deputy governor of Andong. With Zhang Shougui's letter of recommendation, the entire Youzhou territory and the three major vassal towns will really fall into our hands. When the lord succeeds to the throne, Zhang Shougui will Then we can really get rid of him. At that time, he will not be our help, but our obstacle."

"Prior to this, Zhang Shougui must not die. This is what my lord and I have agreed upon."

Gao Shang said in a deep voice.

Throughout Anton, Gao Shang has become the well-deserved first military advisor, and many of his judgments have proven to be correct in the future. At this point, even Cui Qianyou and Tian Qianzhen admired him.

"The only obstacle now is the foreign king!"

At this time, another voice spoke. The man was thin and frail. He was holding a flute in his hand and a red silk tassel hanging down. He looked polite and cunning. He was Yan Zhuang, the second military advisor under An Yaluoshan. .

Yan Zhuang is not like Gao Shang, who is proficient in reasoning and numeracy in the Book of Changes, nor is he like him who has traveled around the world and knows all the places in the Middle Earth.

But Yan Zhuang, whom I have known since he was a "slave-catching general" in Anlu Yashan, is somewhat intelligent, good at observing people's emotions, has insight into subtleties, and is extremely proficient in human relations.

"Judging from the previous situation, this person has always had a high regard for the lord, and he once wrote a letter to remind Zhang Shougui that we had drugged him. Thinking about it makes people break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, I intercepted it in advance and drugged Zhang Shougui's tea instead. . He only paid attention to inserting needles in the dishes, but did not notice at all that we put drugs in the tea juice he likes to drink. This deceived his warning and gained his trust. This is why Zhang Shougui still has no doubts about us."

Yan Zhuang said.

When this matter was mentioned, everyone looked slightly strange, even Gao Shang frowned slightly.

The young man in the capital has always been the biggest fear. This man's military skills are as good as a god, and sometimes, he even gives people the feeling of foresight, which is not even comparable to nobleness. The previous drug administration was discussed in advance, and only a few people knew about it, and they were all confidants around An Yaluoshan.

It was impossible for outsiders to get in, but the person in the capital seemed to know about it in advance, which made everyone suspicious of each other and internal suspicion for a while. This is still a mystery.

Those who are proud and confident are like Cui Qianyou and Tian Qianzhen, and are arrogant and smart like noble and solemn. They are also very afraid of this person and dare not say anything arrogant easily.

"In addition, there is another thing. During our battle, many people from Feng Linhuoshan under that man appeared in Youzhou. I am afraid that our actions this time cannot be hidden from him."

Yan Zhuang said.

"It doesn't matter!"

Unexpectedly, Gao Shang shook his head, his expression was quite calm:

"Plan before taking action. Now the overall situation of Youzhou has been decided. Even if he finds out, nothing can be changed. However, we still cannot take this person lightly. I have a feeling that if the Nine Provinces Dragon changes, this person will be our biggest enemy in the future." Enemy. When the lord comes to power in the future, he must be the first to get rid of this person!"

An Yaluoshan said nothing, but his expression instantly became extremely cold, full of murderous intent.

"asshole!--"

While he was talking, a shocking roar suddenly came from a distance. The sound was like a sharp arrow piercing the sky. Even if people were more than ten miles apart, they could still hear it clearly. A group of people suddenly turned their heads and looked over.

"It's the Great Protector!"

Cui Qianyou's brows jumped and he recognized it immediately.

"Haha, it seems the imperial edict has arrived!"

For a moment, both Gao Shang and Yan Zhuang had a smile on their lips:

"Next, it's time to start the next step!"

…

Just a few days later, a piece of news shocked the world. An Yaluoshan, the deputy general of the Anton Protectorate, performed outstandingly in the Northeast War and was promoted to the deputy governor of Anton.

Zhang Shougui, the former Protector of Anton, aroused public anger in Youzhou in the northeast for his own selfish reasons, causing the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms to attack Youzhou. As a result, the Anton Protectorate suffered heavy losses, the entire Tiger Army was annihilated, and the people of Anton were also implicated. Former An The Protector-General of the Eastern Province could not escape the blame, so he was removed from his post and moved to be the governor of Kuozhou!
