Chapter 109: Huang Xie's Heart
After the Qi-Chu coalition army captured Surabaya County, Zhu Ying and Gongsun Xia Ming's army camped outside the city and entered the Surabaya governor's mansion.
This time the coalition army attacked Surabaya County, Gongsun Hong ordered the Chu army to launch a catapult to attack the city, the defenders of Lu State were defeated under the attack of the boulder, the city gate was immediately breached, and the coalition army easily took Surabaya County of Lu State, and the Qichu coalition army was not a casualty, Gongsun Hong and Zhu Ying faced such a result, they had already expected, and they couldn't help but be excited.
The two of them entered the mansion, and before Zhu Ying could sit down, he heard Gongsun Hong laughing, "This time, my Qichu coalition army did not have a single casualty, and the general intended to rest the coalition army for a day, so he marched to Qufu in Lu State, I don't know what Mr. thinks."
Zhu Ying is also quite agitated at the moment, hearing Gongsun Hong's words, his heart is also quite moved, I don't want the soldiers of Lu State to be so vulnerable, Zhu Ying knows that the soldiers are fast, and now that the Wu army has returned to Gusu, the coalition army will be able to win a battle against Qufu, and when he is about to speak, he doesn't want the soldiers of the two armies to send letters.
Gongsun Hong, Zhu Ying both took the handwritten book to inspect, Zhu Ying saw that the handwritten book was actually from Xiang Liang's hand, and couldn't help but show a look of doubt, looking at it, Zhu Ying's originally relaxed face suddenly gave birth to a look of shock, I don't want the Wu army to attack Shencheng, now Shencheng has been lost, Xiang Liang's handwritten book has the meaning of Zhu Ying leading the army back.
The soldiers of the Qi army passed the handwritten letter of Meng Weijun, and Gongsun Hong inspected it and knew the meaning of the king, so that he led the coalition army to take Qufu of Lu as soon as possible.
Gongsun Hong immediately said to Zhu Yingyan, "The king came to the book, quite urging us to capture Qufu as soon as possible" Gongsun Hong could not hide his excitement in his words, this time to capture Qufu, in Gongsun Hong's opinion, it is just an easy thing, it is expected to return to Linzi, and the king will definitely be rewarded.
When Zhu Ying heard this, he couldn't help but look embarrassed, and his heart was also hesitant for a while, although the Wu army captured Shencheng in Xiang Liang's book, the casualties of the Chu army were very few, and the battle of Shencheng was also a change, Sun Wu was able to let the Chu army evacuate, and thought that for a while, the Wu army would not do anything else. After Zhu Ying pondered for a while, he said to Gongsun Hong, "Please also take a moment of peace, I don't want me to have a change," and Zhu Ying passed Xiang Lianglai's book to Gongsun Hong.
Gongsun Hong saw that Zhu Ying's expression was quite unspeakable, and then took Xiang Liang's book and looked through it, and at a glance, Gongsun Hong couldn't help frowning, and said to Zhu Ying, "I don't want Sun Wu to be in Chu Di, but now Mr. is going to lead the troops to return" The name of the soldier saint Sun Wu has already shocked the world, and Gongsun Hong dare not despise it.
If the Chu army withdrew, Gongsun Hong knew that with the army of 100,000 Xue Cheng, he was afraid that he would not be able to attack Qufu, and now that Shencheng was lost, if Zhu Ying insisted on leading his troops back, Gongsun Hong would not be able to stop it.
Zhu Ying saw that Gongsun Hong was quite cautious, and then said with a wry smile, "Although I don't have the ability to command the troops, I also know that the morale of our coalition army is strong at this moment, and if we attack Qufu, we will definitely be able to win the battle, but now the situation in Chudi is unknown, so I haven't made a decision."
Gongsun Hong heard that Zhu Yingyan did not lead the Chu army to return, and couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, so he said again, "What Mr. said is true, I wanted to come to the coalition army in one go, and I will definitely be able to take Qufu of Lu State, and General Xiang came to the letter, it seems that there is a mysterious strong man to help Chu State, and it is expected that the Wu army will not attack again, and I hope that Mr. will make a clear decision."
In Gongsun Hong's view, if the coalition forces can occupy the land of Lu, Meng Yanjun and Chun Shenjun will have a country, under the alliance between the two, the power should be able to go further, often accompanied by Meng Yanjun's side, Gongsun Hong knows Meng Yanjun's mind, and the monarch often cites Chun Shenjun as a confidant, I expect that Chun Shenjun's heart should be like Meng Yanjun, if he can do his best, it will also be of great benefit to Chun Shenjun, Zhu Ying as a guest of Chun Shenjun, eat the king's Lu, bear the king's worries, and think that Zhu Ying will distinguish it.
Zhu Ying heard Gongsun Hong's words, and knew that if he could occupy all the land this time, it would indeed be of great benefit to the king, but even if Zhu Ying was often with Chun Shenjun, he did not know Chun Shenjun's heart, how could Zhu Ying make a decision at this moment.
Seeing Gongsun Hong's expectant look, Zhu Ying couldn't help but sigh, "Please wait a while, I think the king will also send a handwritten letter, and he will act according to the king's order."
Gongsun Hong heard Zhu Ying's words, and his heart couldn't help but be determined, although Chun Shenjun was a great merit to the Chu State, but he was suspected of bullying the King of Chu, which was a stake, how did Chun Shenjun not know, thinking of this, Gongsun Hong was quite determined and said, "That's good, now the general will inspect the army first" The coalition army has only captured Surabaya County, Gongsun Hong is the commander-in-chief, and he wants to go to the army.
Zhu Ying saw that Gongsun Hong was already in his chest, and he couldn't help but sigh again, but at this moment, he didn't know the meaning of Chun Shenjun, and Zhu Ying didn't want to say much, so he bowed to Gongsun Hong and said, "Please"
Seeing this, Gongsun Hong didn't say anything more, and after bowing to Zhu Ying, he left the governor's mansion.
But said that Yingdu Chun Shenjun's mansion, Huang Xie learned about the loss of Shencheng, only to see Huang Xie looking at Xiang Liang's book, couldn't help but fall into contemplation, Huang Xie knew that Xiang's letter was intended for Huang Xie to order Zhu Ying to lead the army back, and now the coalition army has just occupied Surabaya County of Lu State, and the army led by the prince of Wu State has also returned to the land of Gusu, Lu State is empty, if Zhu Ying leads the army back, it is a pity.
However, the soldier saint Sun Wu was in Shencheng, and the general Xiang Yan was already unbearable to fight again, if the Wu army marched again, Huang Xie knew that Xiang Liangzhi was not Sun Wu's opponent.
In this regard, Huang Xiedun was in a dilemma.
Li Yuan, a guest on the side, saw Chun Shenjun Huang Xie, and after receiving the military report from Shen Cheng, he didn't say anything more, only to see that his expression was constantly changing, and Li Yuan knew that he was afraid that something had happened to Shen Cheng.
After seeing Huang Xie put the book on the case, Li Yuan asked out and asked, "Your Excellency, but something happened to Shen Cheng."
Huang Xie heard Li Yuan's words, only then came back to his senses, now Zhu Ying is not by his side, but no one is conspiring, Huang Xie has changed a lot of views on Li Yuan recently, at this moment Li Yuan asked about this, Huang Xie immediately signaled Li Yuan to look at the book.
Li Yuan saw Huang Xie like this, his heart was born with a color of ecstasy, in the past, Huang Xie had many taboos against Li Yuan, Li Yuan knew that Huang Xie was not appreciated by Huang Xie, and now he saw that Huang Xie had the intention of conspiring by himself, how could Li Yuan not like it, and immediately picked up the handbook and looked at it.
Li Yuan took a look, only to know that it was indeed Shen Cheng who had changed, and couldn't help but think about it, when Li Yuan was about to speak to Huang Xie, but saw Huang Xie looking at him thoughtfully, Li Yuan immediately bowed to Huang Xie and said, "Lao Jun has been waiting for a long time"
Huang Xie heard Li Yuan's words, and couldn't help but laugh lightly.
Li Yuan heard Huang Xie's words, and knew that the king had the intention of making a comparison, Li Yuandun was a little solemn again, and said to Huang Xie, "The subordinates think that the king is now afraid that he is worried about the attack on the Lu country by the coalition army" Saying that, Li Yuan glanced at Huang Xie again, and saw that Huang Xie did not show a different color. Li Yuan then said again, "I don't know the king's mind, and the subordinates don't dare to say anything."
When Huang Xie heard Li Yuan's words, he couldn't help laughing, looked at Li Yuan and said, "As a guest of this monarch, how can you not know your intentions?"
Li Yuan heard Huang Xie's words, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, Li Yuan knew that if his words were wrong this time, he was afraid that Chun Shenjun would not let him leave safely, and he sighed secretly in his heart, Li Yuan then saluted Huang Xie and said, "The subordinates think that the king is the king, and Zhu Ying leads the army to return."
When Huang Xie heard this, he looked at Li Yuan with interest, and motioned for Li Yuan to speak again.
Li Yuan immediately said, "The ministers want to come to Wu and also learned about the occupation of Surabaya County in Lu State, and now that my Chu land is empty, Sun Wu will definitely lead the army to commit again, and this time the king and the Qi State Meng Weijun joined forces, if it is used, I am afraid it will be unfavorable to the king" After speaking, Li Yuan immediately bowed his head to the ground, and kept whispering, "The ministers are dead"
Huang Xie saw Li Yuan's panicked look, and the murderous intent flashed in his heart, this person is indeed well versed in the way of observing words and feelings, Huang Xie can not know that Meng Weijun intends to take the king of Qi and replace him, now Huang Xie sent troops and Tian Wen's army to attack the Lu country, when he Tian Wen rebelled, today's events will definitely bring a fatal blow to Huang Xie. Huang Xie has also been thinking about the alliance with Meng Weijun for a long time, and now that the king of Chu is young, Huang Xie has sole power, and it is difficult to ensure that the young lord does not have a grudge.
Thinking of this, Huang Xie couldn't help but sigh secretly, forming an alliance with Meng Weijun, Huang Xie is indeed selfish, but Huang Xie's heart is different from Tian Wen's heart, Huang Xie is just worried that when the young lord is in power in the future, there will be no place for Huang Xie to stand in the court of Chu State, and at that time, it will be enough for Huang Xie to have self-protection and self-reliance.
For Chun Shen Jun's heart, Meng Weijun finally missed a place, Chun Shen Jun Huang Xie is not the Chu State Office, and the title of the monarch is also the grace of the previous Chu king, although Huang Xie is worried about the situation, but he has never had a heart of disobedience.
After seeing Huang Xie sigh, he said to Li Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground, "You immediately pass the book to Zhu Ying and order him to lead the army back to Yingdu."
After that, Huang Xie couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Meng Weijun Tianwen in his heart.
