Chapter 394: Bao Xu intercedes

The Wu army has surrounded the Yingdu of Chu, they obviously only have 30,000 horses, but the Chu people have long been frightened, especially the soldiers of the Chu State, under the propaganda of those soldiers who fled back, they all thought that Sun Wu Tianshen was alive, and the Chu State could not escape, it seemed that everyone had a sense of awe for the Wu army, and they didn't want to fight, but they had to defend the Yingdu!

As soon as Shen Baoxu saw it, he knew that this Yingdu was difficult to keep, so he had no choice but to enter the palace and ask the king of Chu to make a decision: he wanted to talk about peace!

It just so happened that Fei Wuji and Nangwa were there, and when they saw it, the two of them were a little embarrassed, especially Nangwa, who almost didn't dare to look up, and the whole person was even trembling a little, it seemed that he was still a little ashamed.

Shen Baoxu was in no mood to fight with them at this time, and when he looked at it coldly, he hurriedly reported back to King Chu Zhao: "King, now that the soldiers of Wu are coming to the city and surrounding our Chu State, we have no choice, the only way to do this is to seek peace!"

"King, it's not proper, although my Chu army was defeated, but there are still 50,000 soldiers and horses in Yingdu, all of which are the essence of my Chu army, and they can fight a battle, and the minister proposed that General Nangwa assist Lord Shen to defend the capital!" Fei Wuji hurriedly said.

Of course, he knows why Wu Guo is here, and the purpose of the people's war against Chu is clear: the king of Chu has no way, the traitor Fei Wuji takes power, and kills Zhongliang, and Wu wants to avenge Wu Zixu of Xiangguo!

In this way, wouldn't he bear the brunt of the attack? If peace is negotiated, will his head still be saved? I am afraid that King Zhao will sacrifice his head in order to protect himself! Therefore, we must oppose the negotiation of peace, and the main battle is good, and maybe we can still hold it, so that our old life will be saved, and the wealth and glory can continue without borders!

When Shen Baoxu heard this, he was unconsciously angry: "Lord Fei, what do you mean by this? Haha, this general has buried more than 200,000 Chu troops, and you still want to use him? Could it be that you want to bury our Chu country, so that your heart is comfortable, isn't it?" This time, he was not polite at all, and immediately counterattacked Fei Wuji!

If it weren't for you, a traitorous villain, the state of Chu would have had today's disaster? Then how could the Wu family have such a tragic case? Wu Zixu fled to the state of Wu, and this time, didn't people come for you?

When he thought of this, he didn't feel remorseful: he knew that today, he shouldn't have let Wu Zixu go that day, this Wu Zixu, it seems that he will not stop until he destroys the Chu State, maybe he even wants to kill the King of Chu Zhao! In this way, wouldn't he have become a great rebel? This Wu Zixu, what is he thinking?

When he heard this, he felt even more ashamed, he couldn't wait for a crack in the ground, and it was good to get in, the whole person was already shaking, he was most afraid that King Chu Zhao would be angry, and he would kill his whole family!

How do you know that King Chu Zhao calmed down this time, thought about it, smiled, and then said: "Alas, Lord Shen, after all, this general is a member of my Chu State, and at present, there is one more person and more strength, well, let him make meritorious contributions! Let's demote him by three levels, let him be a captain, and guard the city with the adults! Please Lord Shen gather the people of Yingdu, and we will defend Yingdu together! As for peace talks, it's okay, let's walk on two legs, whichever road is easy to walk, we will take whichever way!"

"King Shengming, then, Weichen is going to arrange the matter of peace! The beautiful jade and gold, silver and jewelry may have to be used, please ask the king's permission!" Shen Baoxu hurriedly asked for instructions.

I knew that this king was the most stingy, but I don't know if he agrees with him to use those jewels and jade at this time?

Sure enough, King Chu Zhao was reborn from his old illness, first sighed, and then said: "Mr. has his own idea about this matter, but the less the better, haha, my treasures are the treasures of our Chu country, and they can't be given away casually, and the widow is distressed!"

"Alas, in this case, I have to go to explore the truth of the Wu State first, listen to their requirements, and then, let's give gifts, what does the king think?" Shen Baoxu asked him again.

When the king of Chu heard this, he was naturally happy, and then ordered him to go to the peace talks first!

Fei Wuji laughed, and immediately stopped Shen Baoxu and smiled: "Lord Shen, our Chu State is now in a downward position, so it is also appropriate to seek peace! However, as the so-called 'courtesy to others', haha, the gifts that should be brought still have to be brought! In this way, my lord, we will use five boxes of gold and silver to sue for peace, showing the sincerity of our Chu State! In this way, the attitude of the people of Wu will inevitably change towards us, and it will be convenient to talk!"

"Okay, good, good! Then, sir, let's do it according to Fei Wuji's meaning, well, in short, it's good to negotiate, otherwise, we will be in danger, everything is for our safety, and our temple can't be destroyed by the people of Wu!" At this time, he finally realized that the state of Chu was worried about its demise.

Shen Baoxu breathed a sigh of relief and hurried to prepare for peace talks!

Fei Wuji hurriedly followed, and smiled: "Lord Shen, the conditions of this negotiation must be negotiated well, but it must not damage the national prestige and morale of our Chu State!"

"Then, if that's the case, why don't you let Master Fei negotiate? Haha, you and Wu Zixu are also acquainted, if you go, maybe he will buy your face!"

Fei Wuji's face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't speak anymore: If he could go, he would have gone a long time ago, didn't he know that he was most afraid that Wu Zixu would come to him for revenge? Perhaps, he still wished that this Wu Zixu would come and ask for his own life! This old man, if he had the opportunity in the future, he must take good care of him!

How did he know that he had no more days to live, and in the evening, the king of Chu gave an order to take his head to cater to Wu Zixu, otherwise, how could the peace talks continue?

Shen Baoxu loaded ten boxes of gold and silver, and immediately went outside the city, asking to see King Wu!

When he saw it, he was immediately shocked: "General Han, why are you also in the military tent of Wu State? Could it be that you are also the general of Wu State?" As soon as he saw it, he completely understood everything: Xiao Han was just Yingdu inquiring about the reality of Chu State that day, how could he really help Chu State?

"Hehe, Lord Shen, when will my brother be the general of the Wu State? Let's just come and see how the Wu State can destroy your Chu State! Hehe, this General Sun Wu is our good friend, so this King Wu is generous, just give my brother an official title, Lord Keqing of the Wu State! Of course, the King of Wu is also very generous, and married Princess Huaiyu to my brother, so it is also necessary for us to run for the Wu State! However, my brother is also the State of Qi, the State of Qin, The guest secretary of the Song Kingdom, these three kingdoms have also married the princess to my brother!Haha, they are much more generous than your King Zhao of the Chu State, you King Zhao is too stingy, hum, there is no grace at all!" Princess Taiping took the opportunity to taunt the King of Chu.

When Shen Baoxu heard this, he was stunned again, and he was also ashamed for a while: Perhaps, the king of Chu was a little more generous at that time, and let this Han general also be the guest secretary of Chu State, everything will be different again!

Thinking of this, he sighed, and then smiled bitterly: "King, the monarch of our country is willing to cede the land and sue for peace, I don't know what the king wants?" After speaking, he threw his eyes to Xiao Han and Princess Taiping, obviously, asking them to intercede for him and the Chu State.

"Well, the king, since this Chu country has the intention to seek peace, let's give the Chu country a way to live, just listen to their sincerity, how about it?" Princess Taiping of course said at this time, and her eyes glanced at Sun Wu and Mengjing.

Sure enough, Mengjing also smiled, and was happy: "Yes, these soldiers are coming to the city, let's listen to the meaning of the king of Chu, and it's not too late to make a decision, haha, in short, everything is decided by the king!"

"Well, it's okay, the anti-Xia Yin is right in front of you, haha, then, Lord Shen, I don't know what conditions King Zhao wants to give us?" Of course, Wu Wang Lu will also be a man, this generosity to others is the most refreshing!

Shen Baoxu thought that Princess Taiping's intercession had worked, and he was suddenly grateful, and smiled: "Ah, the king, my king asked me to bring ten boxes of gold and silver to honor the king, please accept it!"

"It's okay, these ten boxes of gold and silver are even our labor and military expenses, yes, the widow has accepted it! It's just that these ten boxes of gold, silver and jewelry are not enough, right? Why don't we Wu and your Chu country take the Han River as the boundary?" King Wu immediately opened his mouth, this is exactly the fat he wants most, how big is the territory? Almost all of the territory of Wu State at present!

"Ah!" Shen Baoxu was naturally shocked when he heard this, in this way, isn't the Chu State at a big loss?

After sighing, he smiled bitterly: "King, this requirement is too high, I can't be the master! Why don't I go back and report back to my king, let's talk again, how about it?"

"Well, yes, haha! At present, my Wu army has enough food and grass, haha, this is all thanks to your Chu State, hehe, we have almost no consumption, and we can afford to drag it out after three or five years!"

Yes, the grain and grass of the Chu State that Xiao Han and they snatched alone was enough to support the Wu State army for two years!

That Shen Baoxu was stunned again, sighed again, and was about to return to Yingdu!

Wu Zixu stopped and smiled: "Haha, Lord Shen, I still have one condition, that is, Fei Wuji's head, hehe, I believe that this is also the wish of the adults, and it is also the wish of the people of Chu State! Under Fei Wuji's cruelty all these years, what has become of the Chu people? Therefore, if Fei Wuji does not die, it will be difficult for the Chu State to be safe!"

Na Shen Baoxu knew that he would make this request, so he smiled heartily, and actually smiled: "Well, I will definitely tell our king, I believe he will definitely meet Zixu Xiangguo's request!"

"Okay, very good! Then, it's decided!Haha, I hope King Chu Zhao won't disappoint us!" King Wu smiled proudly, looking like a cat and mouse.

Shen Baoxu hurriedly went back to the city, smiling, as if he had a baby!

Xiao Han saw it and smiled: "It seems that this Lord Shen has long wished that someone would get rid of Fei Wuji, this time, Lord Xiangguo's request is exactly what he wants, I see that he walks flutteringly!"

"Haha, then, let's have a good peace talk? It's better to be like a cat and mouse, let's use the Chu people as bargaining chips, and we're not afraid that he won't agree! Hehe, it's a pity that King Zhao's head is gone, and the widow really doesn't want it!

Of course, his purpose is to dominate the princes, and it is wonderful that this Yingcan be defeated, but it will definitely take a lot of effort! If it doesn't cost a single soldier to suppress the Chu land east of the Han River, that is a great benefit!

Wu Zixu objected: "The king, by all means, this Yingdu is just around the corner, why do you want to collect troops? Besides, there are a lot of treasures in the palace of the king of Chu, let's not want it in vain! There are still many stunning beauties, don't you want the king too?"

This time, he also used beauties to tempt King Wu Lu: I'm really afraid that Lu will withdraw his army!

Sure enough, when the king of Wu heard this, he immediately smiled, and his face looked like a spring breeze, and he was happy: "Okay, then, let's do what Lord Zixu wants! Let's take down the capital of Yingdu and take the country of Chu!"
