12 Kill Gao Yin and return to China to prepare for war!
Yes!
The long sword fell on Gao Yin's leg, pulling out a long gap. Blood splattered, miserable. Gao Yin inadvertently endured the severe pain and screamed.
The guard was so frightened that he quickly knelt down: "Palace... Your Highness, are you alright? ”
"You... Dare to assassinate His Highness. Gao Yin grinned hoarsely.
"No, how dare your subordinates..."
The guard's face turned pale with fright.
Gao Yin doesn't care.
Call a few people, drag the guard down and beat him up.
He clutched his thighs in embarrassment and yelled into the distance, "Pull him to feed the wild dogs." ”
Li Jin and Chu Yanran, who were watching from the side, were already dumbfounded: "This is okay... Your Highness is too unlucky. ”
Wei Wuji's face did not change, but his heart was happy.
Dare to go against me, a bad luck charm can make you immortal and die.
......
Prince Gao Yin was injured and returned to his home for treatment.
Wei Wuji, Li Jin, and Chu Yanran also returned to where they lived.
Xiang Yu and Li Bai naturally followed
Just arrived at the house.
Wei Wuji received a message.
"This is a secret letter sent by the emperor." A little guy handed the bag to Wei Wuji.
Wei Wuji was shocked when he saw it.
"Brother-in-law, what's wrong?" Chu Yanran was also beside her.
"Let's talk about it in the house."
Wei Wuji took Chu Yanran into the house.
"See for yourself." Wei Wuji handed the letter to Chu Yanran: "My father summoned me back to China, saying that there was a foreign enemy coming to attack. ”
"Foreign enemies? Is it Zhao Guo? The letter was not so specific, Chu Yanran guessed.
"Who else but Zhao Guo?" In fact, Wei Wuji was very surprised in his heart, with the strength of the Zhao State, it was not enough to swallow the Chu State, how could he dare to start a war brazenly. Could it be that there are other countries that join forces with Zhao?
"When are we going to go home?" Chu Yanran asked.
"Without further ado, I'll leave tonight."
"In such a hurry?" Chu Yanran wanted to say something.
Wei Wuji said: "Once the war starts, it is very unsafe for us to go outside, so it is better to return to China as soon as possible." Besides, my father urgently summoned me back, and there must be a heavy responsibility, and I can't delay in the slightest. ”
Night.
Wei Wuji sent Li Bai to the mansion of Gao Yin, the prince of Northern Qi, looking for an opportunity to assassinate him.
Li Bai did not fail in his mission.
came back in the middle of the night to report: "The lord, Gao Yin, the prince of Northern Qi, has been killed by his subordinates. The body was buried in his backyard, and no one should find it anytime soon. ”
Wei Wuji said: "Very good. Go and tell Xiang Yu that after dawn, leave here and return to China. ”
"Yes."
The night was peaceful.
The moonlight shines in.
Shining on Wei Wuji's face, he was hooked and fell asleep unconsciously.
After dawn.
Li Jin, the prince of the Southern Jin Dynasty, came to visit, but he was still a step late. Wei Wuji had already left his residence with Chu Yanran, Xiang Yu, and Li Bai and embarked on the road back to China.
He searched around the city but didn't see anyone, and went to the prince Gao Yin, but still didn't see anyone. He felt that something was unusual, so he gathered his men and returned to China.
Two days later.
Wei Wuji and his entourage hurried to the border of Chu State.
Gao Shun took Yan Yun Eighteen Horsemen and was already waiting here.
Wei Wuji asked, "How did the general get here?" ”
"It's not been peaceful lately, and the emperor ordered me to respond. And also... Zhao Guo and Beiqing have already sent troops, with a total of 300,000 troops. The front of the soldier is directed at Yingdu.... Gao Shun gave a general introduction to the situation.
After listening to this, Wei Wuji felt that the situation was a bit serious.
If the enemy who comes to attack is only Zhao Guo, there is no need to be afraid. However, Zhao and Beiqing joined forces, and their strength has far surpassed that of Chu, and their strength is also several times that of Chu.
This battle is destined to be a vicious battle.
On the way back to Yingdu, Gao Shun continued: "Now some people in the DPRK and China believe that the Chu State cannot fight the joint efforts of the Zhao State and the Beiqing State, and they should send people to make peace. There are also some people who believe that the elite under the command of the lord can take on great responsibilities. The emperor did not want to make peace in humiliation, and had appointed the lord as the general of the expedition to the north to lead the army to meet the enemy. ”
"Oh?"
Wei Wuji was a little surprised.
He was far away in Northern Qi, and the emperor actually appointed an official position first.
It seems that he has made up his mind to do whatever it takes to compete with Zhao Guo and Beiqing.
Wei Wuji has eighteen horsemen in Yanyun, seven hundred trapping camps, and Xu Chu's three thousand black armor, the elite among the elites, and he will not be afraid of Zhao Guo and Beiqing. If he really wants to fight, he is willing to lead the army.
A few days later, he returned to Yingdu.
The Emperor of Chu summoned him.
Next to it, there are prime ministers, generals Wang Dafu.
The emperor said: "Wuji, you should know what foreign enemies are coming, right?" General Wang Dafu strongly recommended you to serve as the general of the expedition to the north, raise 50,000 elites, and face the Qingzhao coalition army, can you have the confidence to win? ”
"Please rest assured that my son will live up to his mission." Wei Wuji replied.
"Well, you didn't disappoint me." Emperor Chu glanced at the prime minister next to him and snorted, "Prime minister, what else do you have to say?" ”
Li Yan was resolutely opposed to the war, and said at this time: "Zhao and Beiqing have joined forces, and there are 300,000 troops, and they have entered our country. And we only have 100,000 troops. The emperor asked the horse to meet the enemy with 50,000 troops, which... ”
He didn't go on with the rest of the story.
But it can be guessed that he is extremely unoptimistic about this war.
You must know that Zhao Guo and Beiqing joined forces, and their troops were six times that of Wei Wuji.
With such a huge disparity, how can you win?
Wei Wuji held his head high and said, "We form an alliance with the Zhao State, and sooner or later there will be a battle." Now they will provoke a war first, and if they don't destroy our Chu State, they will never be able to teach a class. The prime minister thinks that how to retreat from the enemy? Do you want to be a vassal to Zhao State? ”
"Father, the emperor, the sons and daughters think that there is no other way now than the First World War. If you can fight, you have to fight, but you have to fight. To put it bluntly, I know that I can't fight, but I still have to fight. The reason is very simple, Zhao State and Beiqing will not give up, they want the entire Chu State. ”
"Well said!"
Emperor Chu also thought the same thing.
In order to defend the state of Chu, it is necessary to support this great war.
Wei Wuji has many elites under his command, plus 50,000 elites of Chu State, which can fight against the Zhaoqing coalition army.
Although he was still lacking in troops, he believed that Wei Wuji would be able to fight this battle well.
"Mowgli."
"The son is here."
Emperor Chu handed over the talisman and the seal of the general of the expedition to the north to Wei Wuji: "From now on, you are the general of the expedition to the north, and the 50,000 elites of my Chu country are all at your disposal." ”
"The retainers obeyed."
Wei Wuji took the talisman and the seal of the general of the expedition to the north.
With these two things, he is the person who has the most military power in the Chu State, and he can take this opportunity to compete with Zhao State and Beiqing. Wei Wuji himself believed that with his ability and the bravery of his soldiers, he could win this battle.
Leave the palace.
and the general Wang Dafu completed the handover procedures.
The 50,000 troops, all stationed in the north campus of Yingdu, can be mobilized at any time.
