"It seems that the news should have leaked..."

Wei Wuji was a little puzzled, he had already taken Chu Ji very closely, how could he leak the news?

This attack on Zhao State, the original raid plan, I'm afraid it will be difficult to implement.

Zhao Yun said: "My lord, in these days in the Zhao Kingdom, the last general has already figured out their details.

Including the elite stationed in Handan, the total number of troops of Zhao State is less than 70,000.

Almost all of them were recruits, poorly equipped and poorly trained.

This time, the lord personally led an army of 200,000 to go on the expedition, and he will definitely be able to sweep through the Zhao country! ”

"Hmm." Wei Wuji nodded, not as optimistic as Zhao Yun.

The 200,000 army does sound like a lot, but the one who can actually fight is Xiang Yu's 50,000 elites.

The plan for the raid failed, and a protracted battle was inevitable.

Captured by Zhao and Beiqing, the Northern Army formed by the Northern Expedition Army missed the homeland very much.

It is already the best result for them to be able to stand on the side of Chu and not rebel.

If they really want to be sent out to fight, their combat effectiveness will definitely be weakened.

The 50,000 reinforcements sent by the Northern Qi State were almost all recruits.

It's okay to fight a tailwind, but you can't take on the heavy responsibility either.

"Lord, what are you worried about?" Zhao Yun asked.

"Hey..."Wei Wuji sighed, not knowing what to say.

Things work themselves out.

It's better to wait until you get to the front and think about these things.

After pondering for a long time, Wei Wuji ordered: "Zilong, when you come back this time, don't leave again."

Stay by my side and command the Eighteen Horsemen.

Ready to call. ”

"Yes." Zhao Yun was happy in his heart.

He didn't want to do anything to find out the news of the enemy country.

Staying in the army and making contributions is what he dreams of.

Now, it's a dream come true.

Without worrying, he remembered the previous battle of 'seven in and seven out'.

He secretly swore in his heart that he must make great achievements and let the generals of Chu State see it.

It's not just Xiang Yu who can fight, but also him Zhao Zilong!

The army marched day and night to the tiger's mouth.

During this period, Wei Wuji received a letter from Li Xian, the prince of the Southern Jin Dynasty.

He thought that the state of Chu was going to attack the Southern Jin Kingdom, and led 50,000 elites to camp on the border, preparing to act with Wei Wuji to resolve this crisis.

Unexpectedly, Wei Wuji blocked the news, so that the fine work of the Southern Jin Kingdom could not send the news back to the Southern Jin Dynasty.

He was worried about Wei Wuji's surprise attack, so he could only camp on the border and wait.

"This Li Xian..."Wei Wuji couldn't cry or laugh when he saw the letter.

In order to keep the Southern Jin from participating in the war, Wei Wuji sent him a letter back.

It is said that at the critical moment, he strongly persuaded the Chu Emperor to change his mind and not attack the Southern Jin Dynasty, but to attack Zhao.

In this way, he can not only get the 30 million promised by the Southern Jin Dynasty, but also make the Southern Jin Dynasty grateful to him.

this day.

The army arrived at Hukou Pass.

The general stationed here is still Wang Lang, the son of Wang Dafu.

Before that, he didn't know that the State of Chu was going to attack the State of Zhao.

I don't know that Wei Wuji is going to the Tiger Pass.

I was still amazed to see the 200,000 troops.

"Da Sima has been tired all the way, please go into the mansion and rest."

"Okay."

Under the guidance of Wang Lang, Wei Wuji and Zhao Yun went to the city guard mansion.

There are eighteen rides of Yanyun with him.

They felt extremely proud to be Zhao Yun's subordinates.

Although he has not followed Zhao Yun for a few days, he has a lot of respect for Zhao Yun in his heart.

Whoosh...

As soon as he arrived outside the city mansion, Zhao Yun's footsteps stopped.

Then, there was a rapid sound of breaking the sky.

Zhao Yun hurriedly shouted: "Lord be careful! ”

Bell, bell, bell...

Countless arrows were fired.

Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen quickly dispersed, forming a defensive circle to protect Wei Wuji.

The flying arrows were fended off before they could get close.

Zhao Yun was in front of Wei Wuji, guarding the airtight.

"Who?"

Wang Lang saw the branches in the distance move, and shouted: "Come on, there are assassins!" ”

From the city guard's mansion, two teams of soldiers came out and surrounded and suppressed in front.

Puff puff...

At this time, more than a dozen black-clothed people on the branches of the trees all wiped their necks and committed suicide.

Wei Wuji walked briskly over to check on their injuries.

The throat is broken, and the dead cannot die again.

"General Wang, how can there be assassins outside the city guard's mansion? Is the defense of the Tiger Pass so lax? Wei Wuji asked.

"Please forgive the sins of Da Sima, and the last general will definitely find out their details." Wang Lang wiped the sweat from his forehead and reached out to wipe it.

"Humph!"

Wei Wuji turned around and entered the mansion.

Zhao Yun took a few steps and said, "Lord, these assassins are a little strange. Since they had come to ambush, they should have chosen to set up an ambush in a hidden place.

Why did you choose to be outside the castle guard mansion?

Do this...... Isn't it asking for trouble?

As soon as the soldiers in the palace came out, they had no choice but to commit suicide. ”

"What does Zilong mean? Are you suspicious of Wang Lang? Wei Wuji asked.

"It's a matter of public security, and the general has to be suspicious." Zhao Yun replied.

"You can suspect anyone, Wang Lang would not do such a thing.

The Wang family has been loyal for generations, and his father, Wang Dafu, is also a general in charge of the military and political affairs of the Chu State, what reason do you have to make a move on me?

Could it be that he will also collude with enemy countries? ”

Wei Wuji didn't even think about it, and ruled out this possibility.

He was still suspicious of Chu Ji.

Chu Ji was jealous of him, and he was afraid that the imperial power would fall, which would affect his status as the crown prince.

Therefore, an ambush was set up to eliminate future troubles.

"Assassins outside the house, don't bury them first, freeze them with ice cubes so that the corpses don't decay, and wait for me to come over from the crusade, and then check it carefully." Wei Wuji commanded.

"Yes."

Zhao Yun responded.

Wang Lang took care of the outside affairs and came in to confess.

Wei Wuji didn't blame him much: "The big battle is imminent, I want to lead the army to the Zhao State."

The general is entrusted by His Majesty to guard the Tiger Pass.

This is the gateway to the state of Chu, and it must not be lost. ”

Wang Lang replied: "The last general understands. We must fulfill our duties and ensure that the tiger's mouth is safe. ”

..........

After two days of rapid marching, everyone was tired.

The soldiers of the battalions went back to rest.

Zhao Yun and Yan Yun also rested in the City Guard Mansion.

Wei Wuji went to the backyard alone, sat by the pond, and put the fishing rod in the water.

"It's been a long time since I've fished, so I guess I'll be able to catch something rare, right?"

Wei Wuji was looking forward to it.

After a long time.

The fishing rod is pulled up.

There was a piece of paper hanging on the fishhook, which read: "Mu Guiying, originally the daughter of a cottage, has always been secretly thinking about the lord. In this expedition to the Zhao Kingdom, she will make a strong appearance, and the savior will be in danger. ”

Hey?

Wei Wuji's eyes lit up.

The female marshal of the Great Song Dynasty - Mu Guiying is also here, and she still misses me?

Wait a minute...

He suddenly noticed that the note said that he would be in danger, and Mu Guiying came to the rescue.

Don't...... Expedition to the East Zhao Kingdom, will there really be an accident?

Wei Wuji put the fishing rod into the pond again, and his heart was drumming.

"Zhao Guo has already made some preparations, and if he raids again now, he has already lost the opportunity.

It seems that the battle with Zhao is going to be carried out step by step. ”

Whoa...

Wei Wuji's hand shook and pulled the fishing rod up.

This time it was a package.

There's a lot of rune paper in it.

Wei Wuji opened it and looked at it.

What good luck charms, bad luck charms, marching charms, transmission notes...

There are many types and everything you need.

"Hahaha...".

Wei Wuji was extremely excited, and said with a smile: "If it is really an open life, there is no need to explain."

With these runes, Zhao Guo is more sure. ”
