Chapter 339: All the way to the north, all the way to the west

Spring is coming.

The earth has come back to life, and green has replaced white as everyone's main theme.

On the edge of the rolling Yellow River, a large army is crossing the river.

Although all the boats within fifty miles of each of the upstream and downstream had been collected, the speed at which they crossed the river still did not seem to satisfy Sima Kuangliang, the Grand Master of Qi.

"Will the army be able to cross the river in three days?" Kuang Liang asked the staff members around him.

This Great Sima of Qi is now in his forties, his whole face is square, he doesn't look angry and arrogant, and his aura is compelling.

Someone replied, "General, the number of ships requisitioned is insufficient, and I am afraid it will take at least five or six days." ”

Kuang Liang frowned, and a look of annoyance appeared on his resolute face.

"In that case, then order the front army not to stay after crossing the river and continue north!"

Half an hour later, the vanguard of the Qi army, which had already crossed the river, began to move slowly, and soon disappeared from Kuang Liang's sight.

Someone persuaded: "General, we don't need to be in such a hurry. ”

Kuang Liang turned his head and glared fiercely at the staff who spoke like this: "It's just nonsense, haven't you even heard of such a thing as a soldier's speed?" ”

"But the Yan State has been defeated by the hands of the Zhao State one after another, and it seems that the Yan Army should not be worried about it from the perspective of his subordinates."

Kuang Liang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Chu Guochun Shenjun Huang Xie was defeated by General Ben because he was too light on the enemy, how could General Ben repeat the mistake of Huang Xie?" Needless to say, you will immediately return to the armies and order the whole army to speed up, and I will enter the territory of Yan Kingdom in five days! ”

After the many generals around him left, Kuang Liang stared at the surging Yellow River in front of him, with a thoughtful look on his face.

Five days ago, Kuang Liang, who was still besieging Pengcheng, suddenly received a tiger talisman and a warrant from Qi Wangjian.

In this warrant, Kuang Liang was clearly required to immediately lift the siege of Pengcheng and lead his army north to prepare to attack Yan, and informed Kuang Liang that the purpose of this attack on Yan was to establish Gongzi Ke, the son of Empress Yan, to become the next king of Yan.

When he saw this order, Kuang Liang was very puzzled.

Gongzi Ke, the son of Yan State, Kuang Liang, is not very clear, but Kuang Liang knows very well that the Queen of Yan is born to the same mother as Zhao Dan, the current monarch of Zhao State.

"It seems that the king is going to choose to be an ally with Zhao again......" Kuang Liang's face was a little complicated.

During these years, Kuang Liang participated in almost every war between Qi and Zhao, and then was defeated by the general Lian Po of Zhao every time.

This caused Kuang Liang to have a very strange feeling in his heart whenever he thought of Zhao Guo, and he was a little unable to accept the fact that Zhao Guo was an ally.

But since there is a tiger talisman and a warrant, there is no doubt about this order sent to Kuang Liang.

Therefore, Kuang Liang faithfully carried out this order, removed the siege of Pengcheng at the first time, and led 200,000 Qi soldiers under his command to rush north.

As long as the Yellow River is crossed, it will take about two to three days to march to cross the Qi-Yan border and begin to enter the territory of the Yan Kingdom.

According to the requirements of Qi Wangjian's warrant, Kuang Liang will lead these 200,000 skilled fighters all the way to Wuyang, the capital of Yan State, and then fight one or two battles, and he should be able to successfully support Gongzi Ke.

It sounds simple.

But to be honest, Kuang Liang always had a bad premonition in his heart.

You must know that Kuang Liang's father, Kuang Zhang, also took advantage of the civil strife in Yan back then, and led the army of Qi to attack Yan under the instruction of King Xuan of Qi, wanting to take advantage of the situation to completely annex Yan State.

However, Qi's actions were resisted by the remaining princes, and under the joint pressure of the three princes of Qin, Chu, and Zhao, Kuang Zhang finally had to lead the Qi army to withdraw from Yan.

This war planted the seeds of hatred between Yan and Qi, and the new monarch of Yan, King Yan Zhao, regarded this as a great shame for Yan, and worked hard to open a golden platform to recruit talents from all over the world, and finally took revenge on Qi with a perfect attack of the Five Kingdoms.

Although as Kuang Zhang's youngest son, Kuang Liang was not born when Kuang Zhang cut Yan last time, but of course Kuang Liang, one of the few black spots in his father Rong Ma's life, was still very clear.

If he could, Kuang Liang would rather fight against the Zhao, Wei and Chu Three Kingdoms alliance led by Wei Wuji, the world-famous Xinling monarch, than go north to attack the Yan Kingdom, which was still in the cold.

"The king's fate is unbearable." Kuang Liang looked at the surging water of the Yellow River in front of him, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

And Wei Wuji, the prime minister of Wei who was still confronting Kuang Liang in the Pengcheng defense line a few days ago, did not have so much emotion and sorrow.

At this moment, Wei Wuji was walking side by side with Zhao Guo's general Ju Xin.

Wei Wuji also had an army by his side, and this Triple Alliance army, which totaled 150,000 men, had just passed through Chen Ying, the capital of the Chu State, and was rapidly marching towards Wancheng further west.

Although he had long known that the situation in Wancheng was already in danger, Wei Wuji's face didn't look anxious at all, at least he could still chat with the drama Xin around him with a smile on his face.

"Drama, you are not a great talent, why do you want to succumb to Pang Xuan? If the drama is willing to come to Wei, then how about Wuji saying that the king is willing to make the drama a general? ”

After the last general of Wei, Jin Contempt, was killed by Wei Wuji in the Battle of Changping, the position of general of Wei is still vacant to this day.

This is the highest leadership position of the Wei military, and being able to use this position to recruit drama Xin, Wei Wuji can be said to be quite sincere.

Ji Xin, who was already full of white hair, was riding on a horse, his body was straight, and although his temples were white, he was still in good spirits.

After hearing Wei Wuji's words, Ji Xin's face also moved slightly, and he said after a while: "Xinling Jun praised it falsely. The king ordered Pang Xuan to travel thousands of miles from Yan Kingdom to visit the drama Xin, which is also an appreciation of the drama Xin. Although Ju Xin is not talented, he will not turn his back on the king. ”

The king in Ji Xin's mouth is obviously not the king in Wei Wuji's mouth.

After being rejected, Wei Wuji didn't look much annoyed, but shook his head with some pity: "It's really a pity that the drama doesn't want to return to Wei." If one day the drama is unwilling to be an official in Handan, then Daliang welcomes the arrival of the drama at any time. ”

Ji Xin nodded, but did not answer.

In Ji Xin's view, he is already a handful of old people, maybe when he will reach the age of returning to heaven, it is estimated that he will die of old age Zhao Guo's life.

In this case, it is unnecessary to talk about anything later.

Wei Wuji did seem to be in a good mood, so he quickly started another new topic.

"Mr. Ji Xin, I heard that King Yan has returned to heaven."

The expression on Ji Xin's face changed slightly, and he looked a little surprised, and only after a moment did he say, "Really? ”

Wei Wuji laughed, looked at the drama Xin in front of him and said, "Could it be that King Zhao didn't tell the drama about this?" ”

Ju Xin shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Ju Xin is now the general of Zhao State, what does the life and death of King Yan have to do with Ju Xin?" ”

Wei Wuji smiled meaningfully, and said to the drama Xin: "Back then, the prosperity of King Yan Zhao was only possible because of the drama, one inside and one outside, and now King Zhao doesn't use the drama to deal with internal affairs, but instead appoints the drama as a general, which is really Qu Cai, Qu Cai." ”

Ji Xin's eyes flickered, and he was silent.

Obviously, Ji Xin didn't want to talk about this topic.

"Mr. Ji Xin, according to the information I just received, the Qi army that besieged Pengcheng a few days ago is now not far from the Qi Yan border. Does Mr. Ju Xin know why the Qi army is suddenly heading north now? ”

"I don't know." Ji Xin's answer was very brief.

Wei Wuji watched the drama deeply, Xin Yi suddenly spoke: "I heard that King Zhao wants to establish Gongzi Ke, the successor son of Empress Yan, as the king of Yan, I wonder if General Ju Xin knows about this?" ”

This time, Ji Xin's face finally showed a surprised expression.

But soon, the look of surprise on Ji Xin's face disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a calm face.

"This matter is the king's business, but it is beyond the care of Ju Xin."

Wei Wuji glanced at Ji Xin with a smile and said no more.

For Wei Wuji, because of the existence of that incomparably complete intelligence network, there are very few things in the Wei State that can hide from Wei Wuji, even the things around Wei Wangyu.

So don't look at Wei Wuji at this moment, he is not in Luoyi at this moment, but he knows everything about what is happening in Luoyi.

It was precisely because of this intimate knowledge, combined with the order issued by the three kings of Zhao Wangdan, Chu Wangyuan, and Wei Wangyu from Luoyi a few days ago asking the Three Kingdoms Alliance to advance westward to reinforce Wancheng, Wei Wuji relied on his clever mind and the information in his hand to think for a while, and came up with the conjectures he had just said to Ju Xin.

In Wei Wuji's opinion, no matter how you say it, Ju Xin is also a person who has been an important minister in Yan State for decades, so if Zhao Guo has any plans against Yan Guo, he will definitely let Ju Xin contribute some strength in it.

Although Ju Xin didn't tell Wei Wuji anything, Wei Wuji already had his own answer in his heart from Ju Xin's reaction.

For Wei Wuji, that was enough.

By the side of the two, the 150,000 Triple Alliance troops rolled westward, like a long dragon without stopping.

Hundreds of miles away, in the city called Wancheng, the 200,000 Chu army led by Jing Yang was waiting for the arrival of this support army with the stars and the moon.

Will Wei Wuji be able to get to Wancheng in time?

To be honest, Wei Wuji didn't care about this matter at all.
