Chapter 243: Yue Guo Asks for Help Wei Si to Hedong
In the name of his son Chu Wang Zilan, Zheng Sleeve first ordered Jing Cui to be the leading general, Tang Yi and Zhuang Ji as deputy generals, and transferred nearly 600,000 Chu troops to the Chu-Yue border, and launched a battle with Yue.
Due to the disparity in strength between the Yue army and the Chu army, the Yue Xiang had to go to Zhongli in person to ask for help from Kuang Zhang, the chief general of the Qi army, who was still stationed here.
"General, when your King Qi was in Gusu, didn't you promise to fight Chu with my Yue Kingdom? Why did your Qi country delay sending troops at this time? ”
Kuang Zhang was sitting on the side drinking wine and enjoying singing and dancing at this time, and did not bother with him.
After seeing Kuang Zhang's arrogant attitude, he directly rushed over and snatched the wine bottle from Kuang Zhang's hand and pointed to his nose with his finger.
"Kuang Zhang... I warn you, your King of Qi has signed an alliance with our King Yue to jointly crusade against the Chu State, I hope you don't forget! ”
Kuang Zhang smiled coldly.
"The Covenant? What covenant? Why don't I know Kuang Zhang? Since you Yue Guo signed a covenant with the king of my family, then you have to go to Linzi to find the king of my family, what is the use of coming here to find my Kuang Zhang? ”
Juji suddenly became even more angry, and directly overturned the table in front of Kuang Zhang, so frightened that the women who were singing and dancing on the side also fled one after another.
"Kuang Zhang, good you Kuang Zhang, good Qi country, you actually want to be faithless and unrighteous to my Yue country? yes, okay, then you wait and see! ”
After speaking, he left violently.
Kuang Zhang directly spat on the ground at this time.
"What do you think you are in Vietnam? Why should I, Qi Guo, help you? You conspired to kidnap my king, and my Qi country hasn't settled accounts with you? ”
After returning to King Wujiang of Yue, he reported the untrustworthy words of Qi to King Wujiang of Yue.
When Wujiang heard the news, he was furious.
"Okay, you Qi country, you untrustworthy and unrighteous King of Qi, I knew that this king should have let Zhou He end your life in the first place!"
"It's all to blame for the widow's confusion and confusion for a while!"
Then I asked the club on the side:
"What should we do now? Our Vietnamese army has been beaten by the Chu army on the battlefield and has no strength to fight back, if this continues, in a few days, the Chu army will fight until I will come! ”
Juji hesitated.
"King, now that the Qi State is treacherous, then we can only beg the Wei State!"
Wujiang couldn't help but ask:
"But at this time, can Wei help me cross the country? Then what can I do to ask Wei to send troops to help? ”
"Go to Wei for help, is it too late now?"
"Prime minister, why don't you personally lead all the troops to the coast of the East China Sea, and then we will have another backwater battle with the Chu army, right?"
Juji replied with a wry smile.
"King, what you think is too simple, back then, we were able to defeat the Qi army because the difference in strength was not large, and now the difference in strength with the Chu State is too big, even if we fight against the water, what we are waiting for is just the annihilation of the whole army."
"You can first send someone to collect some jewels and beauties, send them to the Chu military camp, and hand them over to Jingcui, in order to get reinforcements, and the minister also brings some jewels and beauties and rushes to Daliang to see if you can persuade the King of Wei to send troops to rescue!"
King Yue Wujiang pondered.
"It seems that this can only be the case, Juxiang, I have to count on you for the life and death of my country!"
A few days later, the Great Liang of the Wei State.
Wei Si was sitting with Zi Lian under a pavilion in the palace at this time, sitting with their backs together, reminiscing about the past.
"Lian'er, think about it, we've known each other for almost ten years, and this time flies so fast!"
Zilian responded.
"Yes, husband, I accompanied my cousin from Yan Kingdom to Daliang at that time, but I didn't expect to meet you by fate, in fact, I didn't want to be a queen in my life!"
Wei Si asked.
"Lian'er, then what did you think at the beginning?"
Azusa replied.
"Because my cousin's dream since she was a child is to be able to enter the palace to be a monarch's wife, so I just wanted to accompany my cousin to Daliang, send her into the palace, and then go back to serve my uncle and aunt and provide for them!"
"Alas, I didn't expect that it was because of this trip that my cousin was angry with me and went to Qi country, but she encountered misfortune, which is all to blame... Blame me! ”
Zi Lian couldn't help but burst into tears as she spoke.
Wei Si quickly got up and wiped away his tears.
"Lian'er... Don't cry... Don't be sad, it's all to blame on the widow, it was the widow who didn't help you leave your cousin in Daliang at that time, otherwise your cousin wouldn't have gone to Qi Country to have such an unfortunate thing! ”
At this time, suddenly Zhang Xiao hurriedly ran over.
"The King... Queen Niangniang, there is a gentleman called Juji outside the palace, who claims to be the minister of the Yue Kingdom, and brought a few cars of pearls and dozens of beauties, saying that there is something very important and wants to come to meet the king! ”
Wei Si muttered to himself.
"The Yue country is a national minister, this name seems to be really familiar?"
Then he asked:
"Zhang Xiao, then you call someone to inform Su Xiang, and first help the widow entertain this gentleman!"
Zi Lian wiped away her tears at this time, and saw that Wei Si seemed to be thinking about something.
"Husband, why don't you go and see this club?"
Wei Si came back to his senses.
"There is nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace, this is all coming to my Great Wei at this time, there must be something important to ask for, and now that the war is going to war in Yue Chu, it is obvious that the Vietnamese army is at a serious disadvantage, come to find the widow, don't think about it, the widow knows that it must want to come to my Great Wei to borrow troops."
"But what the widow wants to do more now is to deal with the Lu State first, and what does this battle between the Yue State and the Chu State have to do with my Great Wei?"
"The widow can just let Su Qin give the widow a try on the true meaning of this family."
Zi Lian couldn't help but sigh.
"Husband, as the king of a country, you are really hard enough, not only to deal with national affairs, but also to accompany and comfort Xiaojun and me here, I blame Xiaojun for not thinking much about you, husband."
Wei Si shook his little hand.
"Lian'er, how can you say that? Husband and wife are originally birds of the same forest, after all, I have indeed been with you less recently, and I am to blame! ”
Zi Lian looked northwest at this time.
"Husband, I really want to go back to Yan Kingdom to see my uncle and aunt, I haven't seen them for many years, I miss them, I don't know how they are doing now!"
"And my cousin has been gone for so many years, and I haven't even gone to his grave to pay respects!"
Wei Si smiled lightly.
"Lian'er, it turns out that you want to go back to Yan Kingdom to see your uncle and aunt, it's not easy, in a few days, wouldn't it be okay for the widow to accompany you to Yan Kingdom?"
Zi Lian cast a surprised look at Wei Si.
"Husband, you said you would accompany me to Yan Kingdom?"
"Is this true?"
Wei Si nodded.
"Of course it's true, when did the widow deceive you?"
Zi Lian asked again.
"But what about this girder? If there are frequent wars today, husband, you accompany Xiaojun to Yan Kingdom, what if something happens? ”
Wei Si touched Zilian's hair.
"Lian'er, you don't have to worry about this matter, with Su Jizi and Chen Zhen here, no one should worry about this big beam!"
"Besides, the widow has heard that most of the world's talented people have gone to Yan Country in recent years, and the widow has always wanted to go to Yan Country to see what kind of method Yan Country uses to recruit talents!"
Zi Lian asked again.
"But didn't Zhang Xiao just come to report to the Prime Minister of Yue Guo and want to ask your husband to help Yue Guo? Can you really sit back and watch the Chu State destroy the Yue State and become the great enemy of my Great Wei in the future? ”
Wei Si smiled.
"Where is the Yue Kingdom so easily destroyed by the Chu State, Lian'er, don't you know that there are still nearly 100,000 Qi troops stationed nearby in Yue Di? Although these Qi troops did not help the Yue State to destroy the Chu State, can they sit back and watch the Chu State destroy the Yue State? So the widow thinks that the battle of Chu Yue is still long! ”
Zi Lian nodded, looking at Wei Si with stupid eyes.
"Husband, you are so good to me!"
A few days later, Wei Si and Zi Lian rode north from Daliang in a carriage and began to head to Yan Kingdom.
Wei Si's trip to Yan Kingdom this time was completely light, and he also deliberately asked Chen Zhen to do something secret, and even the clothes he and Zi Lian wore were completely decorated by ordinary people.
Because he passed through the Hedong of Wei State, Wei Si also took the opportunity to stay in Hedong for a day and began to realize the situation.
When he and Zilian walked up to an old woman who was cooking weeds, Wei Si couldn't help but ask.
"Doesn't your family eat weeds every day?"
The old woman looked up at Wei Si and Zi Lian.
"This gentleman, if there is something to eat, why should our family eat these wild grasses and wild vegetables?"
Wei Si immediately asked again.
"Are the other neighbors around you just like you?"
The old woman shook her head.
"Of course it's different, it's like my family has been in the army for three generations, so all the men in my family died on the battlefield, and the family can only be maintained by me alone, so my family is the poorest."
At this time, a young woman also came out and looked at Wei Si and Zi Lian.
"Where did you come from?"
Lian'er responded for Wei Si.
We are from Luoyi, we have passed through you this time, we want to go to Yanguo to do a business, and we happen to be in the east of this river, so we plan to find a place to rest for two nights nearby, and then we will hurry! ”
The woman suddenly smiled at Wei Si.
"Sir, I have a good place to introduce you, I wonder if you would like to go?"
Wei Si nodded.
"Okay, I wonder where this place you are talking about?"
The woman pointed to the east.
"You go out of my yard, to the east, less than five hundred meters, there will be a bamboo garden, there are two empty bamboo houses in the bamboo garden, although no one has lived in it for a long time, but I often go there to clean, and according to you, after all, I am also a person who loves elegance, right?"
Wei Si sighed.
"Well, who is not elegant? But what about the deep city? ”
So the woman took Wei Si and Zilian and went to the bamboo forest.
After a while, when two neat bamboo houses appeared in front of him, Wei Si asked.
"The owner of this bamboo house must be extraordinary in front of him, right?"
The woman replied.
"Isn't it, there used to be an old man who called himself Song Zi who lived there, anyway, he dressed like a beggar every day, I was kind enough to help him clean up, and in the end he was scolded by him, but fortunately this old guy has left here."
