Volume 1 The Corner of the Painting Cracks Heaven and Earth 85 Red Robe (1)
The envoy who went to Han Gon brought a result that made Zhao Dangshi's heart chill. The reason why I am cold is not for Han Gon, but for Liu Zhe.
The envoy obeyed Zhao Dangshi's instructions, paid attention to concealment along the way, and came and went without being noticed by others. Han Gon heard that it was someone sent by Zhao Dangshi, and he was so enthusiastic, if it weren't for the pain in his leg, he couldn't wait to stand up and greet him. The envoy did not say a word, and relayed the question he was going to inquire about to Han Gon: "I heard that Liu Zhangpan has been sick recently, I don't know if the situation is still safe?" ”
Han Gon's answer was: "Liu Zhangpan also came to visit me yesterday, why did he say that he was a little sick?" ”
People's hearts are not ancient, Qin Qigong said it.
Although Zhao Dangshi was prepared, he still couldn't let go of this for a while, his face was gloomy, and he was silent. Qin Qigong waited on the side for a long time, and finally lost his patience, and persuaded: "All envoys, people don't destroy the heavens and the earth for their own sake, and they are safe and fashionable, let alone in the turbulent situation here." Liu Zhe is a general who breaks into the camp, and he may not be completely ruthless to the envoys, but the interests of the army come first, and he can only give up the light. ”
"Hmm." Zhao Dangshi listened to him, his brows stretched slightly, he thought about it again, and sighed, "What you said is that indulging in the haze and being unable to extricate yourself is the state of a villain, and I can't do it." ”
"The true character of the heroes who value love and righteousness makes the name of the hero well-deserved, and the subordinates admire it."
can afford to put it down, this is where Qin Qigong is most optimistic about Zhao Dangshi. People are open-minded, and their horizons will not be confined to one corner. This kind of personality is not something that can be cultivated, but often comes from the heart.
After Zhao Dangshi figured it out, his spirit regained and he said calmly: "Liu Zhe deceived me, and the whereabouts of Huanglong must have a lot to do with him." ”
"Yes, yes." Qin Qigong took over, "In connection with the strange movements of the battalions in the past two days, it seems that all of them faintly point to our army, and my subordinates think that this has nothing to do with Liu Zhe." ”
"But even if I know what Liu Zhe is doing, what way can I deal with the current situation?" Zhao Dangshi didn't understand what Liu Zhe wanted to do, but seeing that his family was slowly surrounded by boundless troops, no matter how steady he was, he was at the center of the contradiction, and he couldn't help but lose his breath.
Qin Qigong thought for a while, and his face was solemn: "With him coming a few ways, I will only go all the way." Liu Zhe's moth, we can't figure it out for a while, but the current situation is clear at a glance, or we have to break the current predicament first, and then slowly search for clues before it's too late. ”
Zhao Dangshi smiled bitterly, raised his hand and said, "Wait, let me take a look at the context first." After thinking for a while, he replied, "First of all, Liu Weiming was bewitched by the sweeping king and wanted to turn against the water. Then there is the disappearance of Huang Long and Liu Zhe's misdeeds. At last the battalions were gathered in my direction. ”
Qin Qigong thought deeply: "As the envoy said, according to this, at this stage, we have to deal with the matter of the sweeping king and Liu Weiming first." ”
Zhao Dangshi said while thinking about it: "Liu Weiming, I'm not worried, he has already been exposed, as long as our people keep an eye on it, it won't set off any waves." And the sweeping king, I really don't have a good way to deal with it. One force will drop ten, others are overwhelming, and if you work hard, our battalion has no chance of winning. ”
Having said this, Zhao Dangshi paced to the chair, sat down but immediately stood up, and it could be seen that he was really a little anxious.
The tent was quiet for a while, Zhao Dangshi pondered and meditated, still had nothing to do, and was about to look at Qin Qigong for help, Qin Qigong coughed twice as if he had predicted it in advance, and said before he spoke: "All envoys, there are three strategies for subordinates, which are upper, middle, and lower, which can be referred to." ”
"Qing'an, say it quickly!" Zhao Dangshi was overjoyed, thinking that this Qin Qigong would live up to the identity of Zhao Ying's think tank, and he would still be able to solve problems for himself.
"There is no other way to go and fight the sweeping king head-on. However, as you mentioned earlier, there are many people and horses in the sweeping king, and although our army is sharp, it is really difficult to defeat the disparity. However, as a last resort, this policy can be considered. ”
Zhao Dangshi shook his head and said, "That's it, you can continue." "Don't talk about not being able to defeat the sweeping king, even if you win by luck, the price of this victory will inevitably be tragic. With this little bit of money that he had worked so hard to save, Zhao Dangshi was reluctant to go to the water without a head like this.
"The middle strategy, withdraw from Yunyang. The sweeping king has not yet moved, and he will transfer the men and horses in time before him, so as to avoid the disaster of the army. ”
"This ......" Zhao Dangshi heard this, and muttered hesitantly. This strategy is much more secure than the previous one, but what is said to be safe is only for the moment when the eyebrows are burning. Where to go after withdrawing from Yunyang? How can King Chuang explain there? Zhao Dangshi never thought about it, and he couldn't think of it. The official armies of Henan and Jianghuai were surrounded like a cage, and the Zhao camp could not break through the encirclement layer after layer. Going south to Huguang, Mengyin, the king of Chufu, had already assembled and deployed heavy troops on both sides of the river to strictly defend them. It is very unrealistic to want to cross the river again. It is even more impossible to enter Shaanxi alone. After thinking about it, this strategy can only be said to quench the thirst of Wangmei, and cannot fundamentally solve the dilemma.
"The second policy of the lower and middle is said, but what about the best policy?" To be on the top list, this last strategy must be unique. Zhao Dangshi was impatient, left aside the previous two strategies, and asked directly.
However, Qin Qigong was a little embarrassed, and hesitated: "This plan is called the best policy, just for the benefits. Compared with the middle strategy, it may be difficult to accept. ”
Zhao Dangshi said calmly: "Our battalion has actually fallen into a situation where there is no way to retreat, even if there is a glimmer of life, we can't let it go." You just have to say, whether to implement it or not, it's not too late for everyone to discuss. ”
There are not only Zhao and Qin in the tent. When it comes to the question of Zhao Ying's life and death, Zhao Dangshi still hopes to work together. So there were also Hou Dagui and Xu Hui together, and Zhou Wenhe was also standing beside him. At this time, they all set their sights on Qin Qigong.
Hearing this, Qin Qigong nodded in agreement, and with a stern expression, he said the best policy he had been thinking about for a long time.
He said a word, quite square, and the Hou at the table, Lin and even Zhou Wenhe all pondered and speculated. Zhao Dangshi left the table, paced back and forth in the tent for a few steps, and couldn't stop saying: "It's too dangerous, it's too dangerous!" ”
To be honest, Zhao Ying has developed to the scale it is today, and the pressure on Zhao Dangshi is getting bigger and bigger. He couldn't be clearer about the truth that he would lose if he gambled for a long time, and he could make a final decision without hesitation in buying and selling a small book, but it was really indecisive to put the current Zhao Ying on the gambling table again as a bargaining chip.
Qin Qigong also knew the danger of the best strategy, so he was silent after he finished speaking, waiting for Zhao Dangshi's final decision. The rest of Hou, Xu and others also knew the importance of this matter, so they would not speak out until Zhao Dangshi did not express his position.
Once again, there was silence in the tent of the Chinese army.
Zhao Dangshi walked from the big chair to the tent with his hands behind his back, and then walked back from there, back and forth eight times in a row. Sometimes nodding, sometimes shaking his head; Sometimes there is a happy face, and sometimes there is a worried expression. After thinking and weighing it repeatedly, the thoughts in my mind were like the violent storm blowing in the middle of the night and the roaring waves constantly colliding, stirring and frenzy.
Finally, his gloom disappeared and he returned to normal, and his expression was so natural that it was almost impossible to see the pain he had just suffered. But the generals are familiar with him and are comfortable with this situation. Because they know that every time Zhao Dangshi becomes like this, it must be because he already has an opinion in his chest.
"I've figured it out, but before I do, I'd like to hear what you have to say." Zhao Dangshi said loudly, looking forward to everyone, "Approve the next strategy to raise the left fist; Raise your left palm in favor of the middle policy; Raise your right fist in favor of the best policy; Raise your right hand if you think it should be reconsidered. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Qigong, Hou Dagui, Xu Hui and even Zhou Wenhe raised their right hands at the first time.
Zhao Dangshi looked at them and couldn't help but wonder, he also slowly raised his right hand, and then like everyone else, he clenched his palms into a fist.
Right fist, the best policy.
Three days later, Zhao Ying's front camp and rear division.
Liu Weiming has been insomnia for three consecutive nights, and since Huang Long came, he has been in a state of excitement, and Bai Jiaolong's promise has added fuel to his excitement. Brothers are united in their interests and cut off gold, one person, he is still a little afraid, but there is a white dragon to start together, the two divisions totaled more than 1,000 people, he thought to himself that even if Zhao Dangshi noticed the trouble, the two of them were sure to break through.
Just yesterday, the messenger of the sweeping king came in the dark, and he received the order, and he was surprised and delighted. To his astonishment, the King of Sweepers asked him to respond to the army that swept from outside tomorrow as an internal response; Happily, the sweeping king promised that as long as he kicked Zhao Ying, he could become the general under the sweeping king's account.
The so-called general who stands on the seat, as the name suggests, is qualified to sit during military discussions. This kind of glory cannot be obtained by non-descendants and cronies, so with this promise, the sweeping king can be regarded as giving Liu Weiming enough face.
With nearly 100,000 people in the sweeping king's army, he can become a small ditch commander, and the number of people under his hands is several times more than now, not to mention the generals? When he heard this, Liu Weiming even trembled excitedly in front of the messenger.
Excitement is excited, Zhao Dangshi's methods he has seen, for this person, he is very jealous, thinking that it is difficult to deal with alone, so after sending away the messenger of the sweeping king, he kept looking for Bai Jiaolong.
Bai Jiaolong was also very happy, and after the joy, he began to complain that Liu Weiming was not righteous and did not let himself also look up to the "angel" who admired the king of the sweeping land. Seeing him like this, Liu Weiming patted his chest and promised that he would come to the King of Sweeping Ground in the future to talk about his merits, and he would definitely not let his good brother be snubbed, and Bai Jiaolong turned his anger into joy.
The two conspired, and Liu Weiming felt that Zhao Dangshi was heavily guarded and didn't know how to start. Bai Jiaolong put forward an idea and said, "My brother has been in the back office for a long time. I have been on duty in the Chinese army for the past few days, but I have smelled some rumors. ”
"What's the wind?"
"Well...... this" Bai Jiaolong didn't say directly, and glanced at Liu Weiming strangely
Liu Weiming was puzzled at first, but soon understood, sighed and said, "It's all this time, my brother still doesn't believe me?" The love between our brothers is more important than Mount Tai, my surname Liu is good, how could I have wronged you, brother? You tell the news, the two of us teamed up to capture Zhao Dangshi's kid, in front of the sweeping king, whoever should be credited is whoever, and when you are a brother, you will not be filthy to take credit for yourself. ”
When Bai Jiaolong heard this, he smiled and said, "Hehe, if my brother has this heart, I will be satisfied." Then he leaned closer and whispered, "The news I got in the morning, tomorrow morning, there will be a person named Han Gon who will come here, and Zhao Dangshi will personally go out of the camp to greet him." ”
Liu Weiming had never heard of the name Han Gon, and he hadn't met Han Gon when he came to Zhao Ying before, so he didn't know about Han Gon's injury, and said suspiciously: "What is the origin of this surname Han, so that Zhao Dangshi can personally come out to greet him?" ”
Bai Jiaolong replied: "It's not a big man, it's just a cavalry general in the camp." I heard that Zhao Dangshi was beaten by King Qi in the camp, and he was very embarrassed in front of King Chuang, and King Chuang should have sent someone to appease him. ”
Liu Weiming grinned and said: "Zhao Dangshi has iron teeth and copper teeth, and I don't want to have a deflated time, haha, interesting, interesting." ”
Bai Jiaolong accompanied him and laughed at Zhao Dangshi a few times, and then said: "This is a good opportunity, Zhao Dangshi came out of the camp to greet him, there will not be many people around him, but Zhou Wenhe's veterans are the best, let's prepare in advance, seize the opportunity to kill him by surprise, and the big thing can be decided." ”
After he finished speaking, he looked directly at Liu Weiming. Liu Weiming pondered for a long time and clapped his palms: "This matter is feasible." The sweeping king once said that his front part was lurking not far from Zhao Ying, and asked me to send someone to inform me in advance of the incident, and I would come to help immediately. Even if we can't catch Zhao Dangshi, we can still disrupt his army and plan reinforcements. And with the protection of the sweeping king, there is no need to worry that there is no way out. ”
Bai Jiaolong sneered: "Brother is so cowardly, who is the sweeping king?" As soon as his soldiers came, wasn't Zhao Ying stepped into powder in an instant? The sweeping king, he deliberately gave us a chance to perform, so that we had meritorious deeds, and we would not be despised after being attached. Zhao Dangshi will die tomorrow, and we will not have any risk of life, understand? ”
Liu Weiming was scolded by him for a while, and he made a promise, but his face was extremely happy, and he said straightly: "I am relieved to be relieved by my brother, I am relieved to be relieved......"
Bai Jiaolong continued: "So, let's get into trouble this time, and we will be nine out of ten. The only difficulty is to hold Zhao Dangshi. As long as you can hold Zhao Dangshi, it will be a great achievement, and you and my brother will sweep the king's account in the future, and you can also stand up and be a man. ”
On the one hand, Liu Weiming is very confident in the strength of the sweeping king, and on the other hand, he has great trust in Bai Jiaolong, a brother who has been suffering for many years. He thought about the matter again, and felt that it was completely leaky, and then a reassuring smile appeared, and he raised the wine cup and said: "Brother, for us to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and then do this cup for a bright future!" ”
Bai Jiaolong drank a cup with him, and then said goodbye, saying: "You have to act tomorrow, you must be fully prepared tonight, and you must not think that you are at ease and happy and sad." When Zhao Dangshi is really captured and occupies a place in front of the sweeping king, it is not too late for you and my brother to drink again. ”
Liu Weiming listened to his earnest words, and said solemnly: "What the elder brother said is very true, but the younger brother doesn't know anything. ”
Bai Jiaolong nodded at him, and then made an appointment for some matters of tomorrow's action, and after half a moment, he lifted the curtain and quickly disappeared into the vast night.
