Chapter 129: The Dark Tide is Surging
There were more than just people from the Jin and Song kingdoms at the scene.
Moreover, not only Jin Jun and Song Jun were there, but there were also several monarchs from other countries.
After all, the Jin Kingdom is very fond of summoning the younger brother, so it has suffered the monarchs of some vassal states, and every time they have to travel thousands of miles to a certain place to watch the Jin Jun do all kinds of performances.
Lu Wu was watched by so many people, and he saluted the monarch standing expressionlessly.
It would be an exaggeration to say that the power can pull out the mountain.
The power can carry the tripod, but it is true.
In view of the fact that the ancients always liked to choose romance in the choice of words, Ji Shouman's cultural level was obviously insufficient, or the sentence "pull out the mountains and cover the world" would be more imposing.
Several kings began to whisper.
Their courtiers had seen LΓΌ Wu's martial prowess, and they would definitely report back when they returned.
Therefore, they did know that the Jin Kingdom had produced a fierce general with great strength, but they had not seen it with their own eyes.
"This is Yin Wu?" Cao Guojun Ji looked at Lu Wu with surprised eyes, and said in wonder: "I have heard that the courage is unparalleled, and then I ......."
The latter words were not said.
It's just that Lu Wu looks like an average height, his appearance is not as rugged as a fierce general, and his figure is not strong.
Ji Shouman glared at Ji Yingyu dissatisfiedly, and wanted to call Lu Wu to come out to prove it, but one of them spoke out first.
Qi Xi said: "Your Majesty, the ceremony is over, do you want to set off?" β
"The widow ......" Ji Shouman shook his head when he saw Qi Xi, out of trust in the clan, although he was unhappy, he said: "So, let's go." β
The other kings felt pity.
They actually wanted to see with their own eyes how powerful Lu Wu was.
Song Guojun Bao immediately agreed. He sincerely hoped that the Jin State and the Chu State could be peaceful, and that they would not continue to gather a large army to fight at every turn, how could the atmosphere become tense.
Lu Wu was very calm here.
He actually doesn't have too many ideas, and he can understand Ji Shouman's psychology of wanting to brag.
It's like your own home is developed, how can you not show it off.
When there is a fierce person in the country, the diplomatic occasion must be bragged about, and while deterring other countries, it is also to increase the prestige of one's own country.
Just look at the "Qing" of the Jin Kingdom who were present, they had too much dissatisfaction with Ji Shouman, but the corners of their mouths were hooked one by one, proving that Ji Shouman did a good job this time.
And there is only one reason why Qi Xi will stand up.
Only the Ding who was put out to support the scene at the scene confirmed that Lu Wu's power was infinite.
The tripod is a ritual vessel, which can be lifted casually.
Once Lu Wu went to lift the crown, it proved his strength to raise it, but it was an extremely rude behavior.
If you can't lift it, you will lose face in public.
It means that whether you can lift it or not, the consequences are not good.
The welcoming ceremony is over.
The monarchs got into the car one after another according to their "ranks" and drove off under the escort of the honor guard.
"Wu!" Zhi Gang specially asked Lu Wu to be in the same car, and said earnestly: "You need to practice your skills and archery diligently." β
Lu Wu wondered, is it so obvious that his fighting skills are not good?
In addition, he knew that his archery stinks enough.
"I'm away for a long time, so it's hard to have free time." Lu Wu must accept the suggestion with an open mind, and said: "It's hard to do it." β
Zhigang looked ahead and said, "I hope this meeting will go well." β
Yushou, who is also a retainer of the Zhi clan, is called Yongpei, and said: "This is what the ministers want, and it will be done." β
In the Jin Kingdom, what the monarch wants to accomplish may not be successful, if most of the "Qing" have a common will, then things will definitely succeed.
This is a kind of consensus.
With a more obvious hatred, Zhi Gang said: "If the truce with Chu is successful, you need to look back to the west, and you will make the Qin State hate!" β
Lu Wu still knew that the people of the Jin Kingdom hated the Qin State very much now.
With a "qing" personally expressing this hatred, even if the Jin State succeeded in reaching a truce with the Chu State, the Jin State would still not be able to stop in the future.
The army marched eastward, and after three days of walking, it reached "Shangqiu".
Of course, the "middle army" and the "lower army" of the Jin State were not stationed in "Shangqiu", and were stationed at the north gate and ten miles outside the west gate respectively.
The monarch, together with Luan Shu and Han Ju, entered the "Shangqiu" to receive the hospitality of the Song State.
The "Shang Army" who came to the Song Kingdom early was stationed in a place called "Meng".
That place was about forty miles away from "Shangqiu", but Shi Xie had been waiting for "Shangqiu" for a long time.
Because he didn't enter the "Shangqiu", Lu Wu just followed Zhigang, and what happened could only be hearsay.
Among them, the news that the king of Chu Gong still led his army to be stationed in Xu has been repeatedly confirmed.
The Chu army did not move in the slightest, so that Yi Zizhong, Gongzi Ba, and Xu Yan left Xu State and came in the direction of Song State.
Zhigang made an evaluation of Chu's response.
He thought that since he wanted to meet the alliance, he should have sincerity, but the king of Chu Gong had already arrived in Xu but did not come in person, lacking enough sincerity.
Once the King of Chu Gong does not appear in person, Ji Shouman will definitely not appear by himself.
In this case, it is clear that it is a very important alliance, but the kings of the two countries do not appear, which will definitely cast a shadow on this alliance.
Later, the kings of both countries really did not play.
Since neither the Jin monarch nor the king of Chu Gong appeared, the kings of the countries would definitely not show up, and only sent ministers of a certain status to participate.
As a result, major diplomatic occasions are not as grand as they should be.
The Jin State appeared as the Shangjun General Shixie, and the Chu State was Zizhong, Gongzi Ba and Xu Yan.
They were allied outside the Song Ximen, and the covenant was: Chu and Jin would no longer fight each other, they would have the same likes and dislikes, and the country would be sympathetic to disasters and dangers, and they would be prepared to rescue the evil.
If this time, the alliance will benefit the most.
LΓΌ Wu believes that he is one of the initiators of the Song Kingdom.
As a second-class power, the Song State facilitated the truce between the overlord-level Jin State and the Chu State, which not only gained prestige, but also made the other countries see their influence.
Moreover, the Jin State and the Chu State will no longer make an appointment to go to war, and the Song State, as one of the southern vassal states, will definitely be able to breathe for several years.
There are also other southern countries that have also benefited, and they have actually long been unable to stand the small fights and triennial wars of Jin and Chu.
Whether it is the Jin State winning or the Chu State winning, these countries need to be afraid every time, and they have to obey the call of their own boss to send troops to cheer again and again, and their national strength has long been overwhelmed.
Like a prophet, Zhi Gang said to Lu Wu: "This alliance lacks sincerity, and the two sides will definitely fight again in the territory in less than five years." β
Lu Wu was a little lucky, but also felt pity.
It's nothing else.
If the King of Chu Gong does not come, Yang Youji, who is the personal general of the King of Chu Gong, will naturally not come.
Yoyuki did not come.
Lu Wu naturally didn't have to challenge.
After the completion of the alliance, the "three armies" of the Jin State did not delay in the territory of the Song State, and marched north with the "Alliance" without the slightest sincerity.
On the Chu side, they left the Xu State together, but they went to the surrounding countries to show off their martial arts before returning to the Chu State.
By the time they re-entered the realm of the Jin Kingdom, the season had already come to the beginning of autumn.
The troops of the three armed services need to go to Xintian and go through a process before they are disbanded.
Lu Wu couldn't wait to return to his fiefdom, but he just needed to visit a few old fathers-in-law's families, and some friendly families would definitely have to move around.
There was no delay on the Han and Wei sides.
LΓΌ Wu went to see Zhao Zhan, and after a long night of talking, he went out of Xintian to receive the materials and slaves prepared by Zhao Zhan, and then officially embarked on the journey home.
"Lord, these craftsmen ......" Yu Xian had a lot of things that he didn't understand and needed to understand, and asked, "Where did they come from?" β
Last time, Zhao Zhan promised Lu Wu that he would operate to get a craftsman.
And the craftsman is actually an industry under the name of Jin Jinggong, and Ji Shouman did not receive it after he took the throne, and they were forgotten in the corner.
Zhao Zhan did not obtain those craftsmen in a deceitful way, he spent a certain price to buy them, and then gave these craftsmen as gifts to Lu Wu, his son-in-law.
"That's right!" Yu Xian said: "The change of position is a fact. β
Zhao Zhan had already told Lu Wu about this in person.
Handan Zhao doesn't have enough strength to match the secretary (virtue is not matched), not to mention taking another step, he can't keep the secretary's position.
He has already said very well that he will step down from the post of new army general and will return to his fiefdom.
In view of Zhao Zhan's acquaintance, the rest of the secretaries did not take other measures.
It's just that Zhao Zhan has not yet stepped down, but they have already agreed on who should be the new general.
If there is no accident, the change of the secretary of the Jin State is not only Zhao Zhan's resignation, but the Yin family will usher in a comprehensive rise, not only the new army generals and the new army Zuo are all from the Yin family, but the Shang army generals will also be from the Yin family.
The news that Lu Wu got was that the health of the Chinese army Zuo Xun Geng had become very poor, but the Xun clan, the Zhongxing clan and the Zhi clan did not plan to compete for the throne.
In this way, the Xun clan, the Zhongxing clan and the Zhi clan will only retain Zhi Gang as the secretary.
The rest of the families with "Qing" did not plan to compete with the Hao family, but only planned to consolidate the original interests.
What do other people think, Lu Wu doesn't have mind reading skills.
He always felt that these big nobles of the Jin Kingdom were a little sinister.
In the past, the Zhao family was also a Sanqing, and enough scenery brought corresponding dominance, brewing the tragedy of being destroyed.
The Yin clan was arrogant and domineering enough, once Xun Geng had an accident, Shi Xie would be replaced by the Zhongjun Zuo according to the rules, and the position of the general would become a piece of fat.
If the rest of the big families don't fight, the army will definitely fall into the hands of the Hao family.
Can the Yin family of one door and two secretaries have the arrogance and arrogance they have now, and they can't go to the sky if they become one door and three secretaries?
There is a saying in modern times that "if you want to make it perish, you must first make it crazy", and Lu Wu felt that several great nobles were doing such things.
"Can you rest in the coming year?" Yu Xian saw Lu Wu shaking his head, and said in surprise: "Jin and Chu are harmonious, where to use soldiers?" β
Lu Wu said: "Wei, Lu, and Zheng Zhijun went to Jin to be ordered. β
Yu Xian was not stupid, but he lacked the corresponding information, and when he heard it, he sighed: "In this way, a war with Qin is inevitable." β
The Jin State is a very vindictive militaristic country, so it will not suffer silently after being beaten.
Lu Wu used his wisdom to win the recognition of several old fathers-in-law, and also won the appreciation of Zhigang, and some news can always be learned in advance.
He already knew that next year the Jin State would send envoys to the eight countries of Qi, Song, Wei, Lu, Zheng, Cao, Di, and Teng, inviting them to form an alliance, and then wave their troops to attack the Qin State.
So, there's no such thing as stopping.
There will be a big move in the Jin Congress next year!
