Chapter 308: On the Eve of the War
Zhu Gaoxu muttered to himself, dragged his tired body, and walked towards Wu Wu's "Shaoguang Room". Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, as soon as he opened his legs, he suddenly felt lightheaded.
His eyes were dark, and his body couldn't help but sway.
He took a few steps in front of him, and like a butterfly with broken wings, he fell to the ground......
"Lord Wang!"
"Lord Wang, what's wrong with you?"
"Could it be that the prince is so cowardly, as soon as he heard about the emperor's imperial conquest, he was scared like this?"
When the generals under the King of Han saw this situation, they couldn't help but scream, and for a while, people were panicked.
Everyone was confused and discussed.
In the blink of an eye, King Han's army seemed to have blown up the camp.
The confidence of the officers and men also began to waver, and the morale of all people collapsed.
"Run, run for your life before the war starts."
I don't know who was the first to make such a sound, and then the sound couldn't stop.
At this time, Zhu Zhanji, who was already in the city, ordered the army to be repaired.
At this time, Xue Lu reported that he had captured a soldier from the army of the King of Han and came to surrender.
"Kill him! Come to surrender at this time, maybe it is a spy sent by the King of Han! ”
Yang Rong suggested to Xue Lu.
"Okay, drag it out, cut it!"
Xue Lu waved his hand.
"The emperor spares his life." The soldier who surrendered was terrified.
When Zhu Zhanji deliberately put Xue Lu's knife on the neck of the surrendered soldier, he said slowly:
"Let him go! I haven't opened my mouth yet, who of you dares to careless of human life? ”
After that, he walked up to the soldier who had walked in front of the ghost gate, and said domineeringly:
"Regardless of whether he really comes to surrender or fake, as long as he comes to my territory, we must give him a chance to choose."
Zhu Zhanji bent down, took out a heavy gold ingot, put it in front of the soldier's eyes, and said gently:
"I don't care what you did before, as long as you are willing to follow me now, not only is this silver yours, but I will also reward you with more silver; If you don't want to, I won't kill you, you can at least take this money and go home to marry a wife and have children, as long as you don't blindly work for Zhu Gaoxu. ”
"What does the emperor say? As long as I am willing to follow the emperor, will the emperor give me more silver? ”
The soldier's eyes lit up.
"Of course, the Son of Heaven is a good word! Not only you, but as long as you are willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, I will be rewarded. ”
Zhu Zhanji said categorically.
Then he said to the soldier more gently:
"If you are willing to go back and tell others, be aware of current affairs, and don't follow Zhu Gaoxu to rebel, I will make you the head of a hundred households now!"
"Thank you to the emperor! The villain is willing to work for dogs and horses. ”
The soldier was greatly moved, and sure enough, he received a generous reward, and went back to secretly show off the golden silver to the good soldiers, and conveyed the emperor's words to them.
When the Han King who was in a coma woke up, he found that most of his officers and soldiers had been consumed by Zhu Zhanji in this way, and his heart was itching with hatred.
"What a despicable villain, using such indiscriminate means to disturb the morale of the army, weaken my morale, and win without force, this king will definitely fight with you to the death!"
King Han was angry, and at this time, a loud shout suddenly came from outside: The emperor has sent a letter to the second emperor!
"What? Apologize to me? This king is going to see what the hell he is doing today! Read, read it out loud to me in front of these generals. ”
King Han said angrily.
"Yes."
The messenger hastened to open the envelope and read aloud:
"Zhang Ao's loss of the country began with Guangao, Huainan was killed, and Cheng Yu was killed. Now that the army is overwhelmed, you only need to hand over those who instigated the rebellion, and I will be able to forgive you of your faults, and the favor and courtesy will be the same as before, otherwise you will be captured as soon as the war begins, or your men will tie you up as a strange commodity and sacrifice you to me, and then it will be too late for you to regret it. ”
"Phew!"
The king of Han spat heavily on Zhu Zhanji's letter, and said angrily to the messenger:
"Go back and tell my little nephew, don't play so many tricks! The soldiers are overwhelmed, and they still want to make me surrender in a pretend! It's just a matter of surrendering, and I want to find a scapegoat to come out and exonerate this king! This king is not such a despicable villain! The rebellion was my sole idea, and I was never fooled by anyone! Isn't it a war to do things by one person? Come at me! ”
The messenger patiently watched Zhu Gaoxu say so many words in one breath with emotion, and then spoke slowly:
"King Han, when our emperor was leaving, tell me, he guessed that you would say this, in this way, our uncle and nephew will inevitably fight, no matter what, the world has also seen it, and the emperor is also benevolent and righteous to your uncle!"
The messenger shook his head and rode away.
"Okay, go to war! Tell the little nephew that this king is waiting for him in Le'an Prefecture to fight to the death! ”
King Han said menacingly.
But the generals around him were a little listless and depressed. There was a slight look of disappointment on their faces.
Three days later, the advance of the conquest army arrived in Le'an, and Zhu Gaoxu issued a war letter to the forward army, agreeing to start the battle tomorrow morning.
In the evening, Zhu Gaoxu knocked on his sister-in-law's door with a pot of wine.
"Son-in-law, I've finally waited for this day."
As soon as she entered the door, Wu Wu smelled a strong smell of wine.
"Lord Wang, what's wrong with you?" Wu Wu had already heard the news that Zhu Zhanji's army was going to fight the King of Han tomorrow morning, but she pretended not to know.
"Sister-in-law, I'm going to have a showdown with your sweetheart tomorrow, what do you think in your heart?"
King Han poured himself a glass of wine, took a sip, and then raised his head and asked Wu Wu.
Wu Wu was shocked, but at this moment, she thought: I must not provoke this prince, otherwise what if he threatens the emperor with me?
So, Wu Wu rolled her eyes and said quietly:
"What sweetheart? The future is like a cloud, all the past is down, I am Zhu Zhanji's meticulous work is not wrong, I stayed in the Han Palace's mansion for eight years, and I was already considered a success, but in the end I was sent to you by the emperor again, just because I am an outcast, these eight years, I have not provided him with anything useful. ”
Wu Wu said as she wiped the tears she was trying to squeeze out with her hand, and she said as choked as she coked up:
