Chu camp outside the city.

"If Heaven wants to destroy people, they must first make them mad." When Tang Yu learned that Gongzi Yu had ordered the killing of Gongsun Hai's entire clan, he slowly spit out this sentence.

Gongsun Hai went to the king of Yue, it was nothing more than the behavior of Gongsun Hai's two-headed bet, and in the end, no matter who would win the final victory between the king of Yue and Gongzi Yu, the wealth of the family would be preserved.

As a result, Gongzi Yu took the opportunity to use Gongsun Hai's murder of King Yue as an excuse to destroy Gongsun Hai's entire family.

Tang Yu naturally knew that the intention of Gongziyu's move was to cut off the thoughts of other Yue people, and it was also to deter the clan.

However, this move will also make the public who was originally waiting and see centrifuged.

Zhao Ying on the side smiled when he heard this: "General, now that all parts of Huainan have sworn to belong to Gongziyu, and Gongziyu has exterminated the strongest clan in the Yue Kingdom, presumably he must be satisfied now." ”

After a pause, Zhao Ying spoke again: "General, the news of Chu's victory over Yue Guo does not need us to deliberately spread it, and now that Gongzi Yu is making such a fuss, the entire Wucheng must already know about the war in Huaibei." ”

Saying that, Zhao Ying arched his hand and said, "General, now we should be able to officially do it." ”

Tang Yu nodded: "Since Gongziyu is so eager to declare his prestige for my Chu State, then the general can't live up to Gongziyu's heart."

However, there are still nearly 20,000 Vietnamese troops in Wu City, and Wu City is a big city, and forcibly attacking the city will delay too much, and the casualties of the siege will not be very light. Therefore, although there are many Chu domestic responses in Wucheng, Ben Jiang still decided to wait for a day. ”

As he spoke, he instructed Zhao Ying: "Please ask the general to go to Wucheng, and then ask Gongzi Yu to help Chu Guo." Tomorrow, this Wu City will become the city of my Chu State. ”

Zhao Ying perked up and responded excitedly: "Yes, General." ”

Soon, Zhao Ying took a carriage and came to the vicinity of the north gate of Wucheng under the escort of more than ten Chu troops.

At this time, the chapter period of the town guarding the north gate saw Zhao Ying coming from a distance on the city wall, immediately opened the city gate, and waited outside the city gate in person.

When Zhaoying's carriage arrived at the front, Zhang Zhi immediately took the initiative to meet it, and when the carriage stopped, he immediately bowed his hand without waiting for Zhaoying to get off, with a trace of fear in his eyes, and a trace of flattery on his face, and said with a smile: "The general came to Wucheng in person, why didn't he inform him in advance, so that he could go forward to greet him." ”

Zhao Ying saw that Zhang Qi not only took the initiative to greet him this time, but also so deliberately flattered, and immediately smiled, knowing that Zhang Qi had already learned about the war in Huaibei, and he was already afraid of Chu people, lest he snub him.

So, Zhao Ying didn't get out of the car, stayed in the car and didn't get down, and said in an arrogant tone: "The general wants to see Gongziyu and discuss the retreat of the Chu army, so please send someone to lead the way, so as not to delay the general to meet Gongzi." ”

Sending people to lead the way in front is not in line with etiquette, this is the treatment that only the envoys of big countries enjoy when they send envoys to small countries, although Chu is a big country, but the Yue country is not small.

However, after Zhang Zhi was stunned for a moment, he immediately responded: "Please rest assured, the general will send someone to lead the way in the future, and the general will not be delayed to see the son." ”

As he spoke, he immediately took a step back and shouted to the soldiers beside him: "Give the order, disperse the people in the streets, and open the way for the general." ”

"No." The soldiers responded.

Then more than 20 Vietnamese soldiers and soldiers walked quickly to Zhaoying's car, ready to lead the way for Zhaoying.

Seeing this, Zhao Ying smiled at Zhang Qi and said, "Okay, thank you general!" ”

Zhang Qi laughed and said: "Where, where!" ”

Zhao Ying laughed and returned to the car.

Soon, the carriage slowly moved forward into the city of Wu.

On the road, Zhao Ying saw the Yue people standing on both sides of the road through the car window, all of them looked at the carriage in fear, and immediately nodded with satisfaction.

Attacking other countries, in the best case, the country that is being attacked, the people of the country all yearn for it, so that the march is like a large army coming home, unstoppable. Secondly, the people of other countries are afraid and fight before fighting, so that when they start fighting, they will be handy and powerful.

In the worst case, the people of the enemy country are full of hatred, and in this case, it will inevitably be protracted, costing the people and money, and the work will be half the result or even in vain.

At this moment, the King of Chu's victory over the King of Yue was enough to make the people of Yue fearful, and Gongziyu's behavior in Wucheng was enough to absorb all the hatred of the Yue people.

With an army like a wolf and a tiger, we will crusade against the rabble who are detached from morality and afraid of me like a tiger.

Zhao Ying looked at the Yue Palace, and said with a smile: "It's a big deal!"

In the palace.

"Chu envoy Zhaoying is coming?" After Gongziyu sent letters of allegiance to various places in Huainan, he was originally afraid of the 80,000 Chu troops outside the city, and when he heard that Zhaoying was visiting, in order not to offend Zhaoying, and even in order to curry favor with Zhaoying, he immediately ordered: "Please Shangqing personally greet you outside the palace." ”

"Yes, my lord."

After the waiter left, Gongziyu thought about it and felt that it didn't seem to be sincere to let Shangqing Zhangyi greet him, so he ordered again: "Please Yaqing Zhaohua come here." ”

"Yui."

Zhao Ying came to the front of the palace and found that Gongzi Yu not only let Shangqing Zhang Yi greet him, but also let Yaqing Zhaohua accompany him, which can be described as treating each other with great courtesy, and put Yue Guo under Chu State.

Seeing this, Zhao Ying's expression was even more proud.

After entering the palace, he did not treat Gongzi Yu with the etiquette of treating King Yue, but directly bowed his hand and said, "I have seen Gongzi below." ”

Gongzi Yu froze when he heard this, and Zhang Yi, who welcomed Zhaoying into the palace, was also stunned, and they were all very angry at Zhaoying's rudeness.

Although Gongziyu has not yet officially ascended the throne, but at this time the king of Yue is dead, and the state of Chu, as the biggest supporter of Gongziyu's accession to the throne, can't he congratulate Gongziyu in advance in this case.

Even if you don't bow down, just call King Yue!

It's just that the anger in his heart is annoyed, but when he thinks of the 80,000 Chu troops outside the city, Gongziyu suddenly suppressed all his anger, and then asked with a still ugly face: "I don't know what the general is going to see the widow?" ”

Zhao Ying raised his head and said in a very arrogant tone: "Childe, not long ago, my Chu army learned that King Yue was killed by Gongsun Hai, and the army led by King Yue was also wiped out, and now all the obstacles that threaten Gongzi's accession to the throne have been swept away by the widow. Moreover, I also heard that all parts of Huainan have successively pledged their allegiance to Gongzi. At this time, our Chu army continued to stay in Wucheng, and there was no need.

Therefore, on the order of the general, I came to ask for my resignation from the son. ”

Gongzi Yu was overjoyed when he heard that Chu Jun planned to take the initiative to withdraw, and then looked at Zhao Ying's still arrogant head, and suddenly became pleasing to his eyes, and his previous anger and fear were all swept away.

Then, after a pause, he said to Zhao Ying with a pleasant face: "The general and Sima have traveled thousands of miles to help the widow, and now the big thing has been accomplished, and the widow has not expressed his gratitude to the general and Sima, so he left in a hurry." ”
