After thinking about it for a while, Xiong Huai couldn't help but stroke his palm and smiled: "Good plan." ”

Then, after Xiong Huai and Gongsun Yanjingcui discussed the details, they opened their mouths and ordered: "Rhino head, immediately send a message to Si Defeat, and let Si Defeat step up to stimulate Tian Jia and provoke him to enter the army." ”

"Yes, my lord."

"In addition, rhino head, you are still responsible for arranging the pretended retreat."

"Yui."

After speaking, Xiong Huai paused and asked Jing Cui: "Zhu Guo, this attack on Xue Cheng has been arranged, the widow wants to hear it, if Tian Jia is not fooled, and we fail to break through Xue Cheng, how to avoid a decisive battle with the Qi and Wei coalition forces." ”

"Great King, if we can't do anything, then we can still advance and retreat, and withdraw our troops from Xue Di in the name of rescuing the Song Kingdom. Keep the Song Kingdom, and you can still make a comeback next time. ”

As he spoke, Jing Cui paused and continued, "Maybe we can also integrate this second option with a fake retreat. ”

"Fusion?" Xiong Huai was thoughtful.

"Exactly." Jing Cui explained: "Great King, there are two ways for the Qi and Wei coalition forces to come to the rescue of Xue, one is to join forces in one place, attack Tengdi from Pinglu to the south, open up the connection between Qi and Xuedi, and then the Qi and Wei coalition forces and the Chu and Song coalition forces will fight a decisive battle. The other is the current situation shown by Wei, the two armies of Qi and Wei are divided into two routes, Wei attacks Song, forcing the Song army to return to help, and then the main force of Qi goes south to fight a decisive battle with our lone army. ”

"Although the second scenario is more likely now, it cannot be ruled out that this is a trick for Qi and Wei. In either case, as long as we have not captured Xuecheng, the Song army will inevitably return to the division to protect itself, it is only a matter of time. ”

"As long as the Song army withdraws, then we can rescue the Song State under the guise of fulfilling the covenant. In this way, the siege of Xue Di will be relieved, and the status of Qi, Chu, Song and Wei will also be reversed. Our Chu and Song countries will reverse the unfavorable situation of geography and people, and the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Song will become insiders, and our Chu State will become an outsider reinforcement, which is a matter of killing three birds with one stone. ”

When Xiong Huai heard this, he then spoke: "At the same time, we can also hide the matter of retreat in the process of saving Song. If Tian Jia doesn't come out, then we will go directly to rescue Song Guo, and if Tian Jia sends troops, we will go all out to defeat him. ”

Jing Cui arched his hand and said: "The king is wise! ”

Soon after the Chu army finished discussing here, Jing Cui returned to the front line to command the Chu army to attack the city, and the Shangguan doctor, who was staying in the Song camp to liaison, hurriedly came in and reported: "King, the King of Song is visiting, and he is already on the way to the Chu camp, and he will soon arrive outside the camp. ”

"King Song is here?"

Xiong Huai didn't send an envoy to the king of Song to make an appointment in advance, so he went straight to Chu Ying, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Subsequently, he immediately reacted, and the King of Song must have also learned about the affairs of the Wei State.

"Order, open the camp gate, and the widow will personally greet the king of Song."

"No."

Just as Xiong Huai got up to greet King Song, Gongsun Yan followed suit, and then followed behind Xiong Huai, and said as he walked out: "King, King Song must be here for the affairs of the Wei State." The Wei general Gongsun Xi garrisoned Jibei and directly threatened Tao County, an important town in the northern part of the Song Kingdom. And Qi Guoshengzi stayed in Pinglu and threatened Tengdi, which was newly occupied by Song State. In the face of the attack of Qi and Wei, now that the main force of the Song State is in Xue, I am afraid that it will be difficult to protect itself, so the minister thought that when the King of Song came at this time, in addition to discussing the affairs of the Wei State, he might also propose the matter of withdrawing troops. ”

"Retirement?" With his own life, Xiong Huai heard the news of the change in the Wei State, and he also had the idea of retiring from the army, not to mention the King of Song who was in the game.

The pace of progress remained the same, Xiong Huai nodded: "Yes, this possibility is very high." If there are no people, if you don't know if you can capture Xue Cheng, you will naturally have to keep the original land first. ”

Gongsun Yan continued: "Not only that, King Song is so eager to come to the Chu camp, he may also ask our Chu State for help. The State of Qi has been besieged by the Three Kingdoms for several months, and now that it has reversed its actions, it is natural to retaliate. Qi and Wei are united, so the object of revenge is the Song State nine times out of ten. ”

"Rescue Song Guo..."

According to the plan, if things are not harmonious, Song Guo will naturally go to the rescue, but there is a premise for this, that is, Xue Cheng really can't be attacked.

Moreover, before rescuing the Song State, the Chu and Song armies had to make one last effort to break through Xue Cheng.

Gongsun Yan continued: "Great King, the situation is still unclear, it will take some time for the Wei State to gather troops, and it will also take time for the troops in the northern part of the Qi State to move south. Therefore, the current situation has not yet collapsed, and we still have to maintain confidence. Once the King of Song proposed to withdraw his troops, it was necessary to stabilize the King of Song and let the King of Song not withdraw for the time being. ”

What Gongsun Yan said was the most unfavorable situation, once the Song State withdrew its troops, the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army would be disbanded.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai nodded and said, "Okay, the widow knows." ”

Before he walked out of the gate of the Chu camp, Xiong Huai saw that a team under the banner of King Song had hurried to the outside of the Chu camp, and was slowing down, and then stopped not far from the Chu camp.

Xiong Huai frowned slightly, King Song came too quickly, and too quickly.

Doctor Shangguan returned to the Chu camp with his front foot to report, and the queen of Song arrived at the Chu camp with almost no pause in the middle, so you can imagine how urgent the king of Song was.

After welcoming the King of Song into the Chu camp, entering the camp tent, and taking the King of Song to do it, Xiong Huai pretended to look at the King of Song who was frowning and asked, "King Song, come to the Chu camp at this time to meet the widow for a while, I don't know what is important?" ”

King Song groaned for a moment, did not speak, but glanced at Hui Ang beside him.

Hui Ang understood, walked out from the side of King Song, came to the middle of the big tent, bowed to Xiong Huai, and then said: "King, not long ago, I learned that the Wei general Gongsun Xi gathered troops in the north of Jishui, opposite to Taoyi of our country. The widow was worried that Wei would take the opportunity to attack the kingdom when it was empty, so he came to discuss with the king. ”

After Hui Ang finished speaking, King Song then spoke: "Yes, the widow also heard that the Wei State recently deposed the Wei Xianglou who was close to the Chu State. Wei is not only against the widow, but also against the Chu state, so the widow wants to discuss with the king of Chu how to deal with the Wei state. ”

Xiong Huai looked at King Song and Hui Ang hesitantly, King Song was in a hurry, but he was not in a hurry.

When the monarch came to Chu Ying, he did not mention the withdrawal of troops for self-protection, but put on an appearance of wanting to target the Wei State, is this a trick to retreat as an advance, or does the Song State have other plans?

thought about it, but didn't come up with a reason, but seeing that the monarchs and ministers of the Song State were not in a hurry, the Chu State could also slow down, indicating that it was not in a hurry.
