"Is there something wrong with Tian Xuan?"

After the celebration banquet, Zhao Hongrun was invited by his royal brother Ji Zhao to the tent where the latter lived. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When they arrived at the tent, Ji Zhao instructed Fei Wei, the chief of the sect, to take some preserved fruits and dried plums, and a pot of tea, and the two brothers sat opposite each other and chatted.

During this period, Zhao Hongrun asked this question.

Hearing this, Ji Zhao smiled bitterly, and then told Zhao Hongrun about the incident that happened in Pi County a few days ago, only to hear the latter's eyes light up, and said in surprise: "Flying Bear Army? King Qi handed over the Flying Bear Army to Brother Wang? ”

In all fairness, Zhao Hongrun had never heard of the Flying Bear Army before, and he had no way of knowing the combat effectiveness of this army, but in any case, since this army was the king of Qi in the past dynasties, the strength would not be weak.

"I see." Throwing a dried plum into his mouth, Zhao Hongrun said with a smile: "My left phase seat was taken by Brother Wang, the woman admired by his son also became Brother Wang's daughter-in-law, and the fire crossbow warship of Julu County was also given to Brother Wang, and now, even the royal pawns such as the Flying Bear Army were also handed over to Brother Wang, if I didn't know the roots, I'm afraid I would have to wonder if Brother Wang is the son of King Qi......"

Speaking of this, Zhao Hongrun looked Ji Zhao up and down a few times, and teased: "She looks like a jade tree, her background is excellent, and her wife is also a princess of a country, and now she has power, money, and status in Qi State...... Tsk, sixth brother, you are simply a winner in life! ”

"Hongrun." Although Ji Zhao has never heard of the praise of any winner in life, it can still be roughly inferred from the literal meaning, only to see him glance at Zhao Hongrun helplessly, and said angrily: "For my brother, I am distressed here, but you are talking cool there." ”

"Distressed?" Zhao Hongrun was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but ask, "What's there to worry about?" The king of Qi gives you something, you just take it, if the others are red-eyed, let them die! ”

Hearing this, Ji Zhao's Sect Guard Chief Fei Wei, who was waiting for the tea bureau on the side, couldn't help laughing, and at the same time, Zong Wei Jiao, who was standing behind Zhao Hongrun, raised his eyebrows at the former: How is it? My Royal Highness is domineering, right?

Sure enough!

Fei Wei secretly gave Wei Jiao a thumbs up, and the latter grinned.

Only Ji Zhao showed a speechless expression after hearing Zhao Hongrun's words, not knowing what to say.

may have guessed Ji Zhao's thoughts, Zhao Hongrun threw dried plums into his mouth, and said in a solemn tone: "Sixth brother, if you want to gain a firm foothold in the Qi country, how can you rely on things to calm people?" …… It's not that the little brother said you, then Tian Yu targeted you, not just once or twice, right? You endure it all the time, when is this a head? …… In my opinion, one knife is slaughtered, and one hundred are gone. ”

Hearing this, Ji Zhao's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly stopped: "Hongrun, don't act recklessly. ”

"Sixth brother, I understand what you mean." Zhao Hongrun rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Do you really think I'm so stupid? Just send someone to slaughter it directly? Anyway, we grew up in the palace since we were children, and we studied in the palace since we were children, so I don't know how to kill people with a knife? Tomorrow I will provoke him, instigate the king of Qi to put this person in the army, and ask him to lead the troops to fight with the Chu army, I think he can live for a few days. ”

You...... What did you learn in Gongxue?

Ji Zhao looked at the Eighth King Brother in front of him with some horror, shook his head after half a sound, and said dryly, "No." ”

"Can't you kill people with a knife?" Zhao Hongrun frowned slightly, and just wanted to explain, but saw that Ji Zhao seemed to have guessed his thoughts, and waved his hand again and again and said, "Brother understands what you mean, you don't have to explain again." …… In short, no. ”

As he spoke, he saw that Zhao Hongrun's expression was different, so he explained: "Binhai Tian's clan has a lot of power in Daqi, and there are also generals who hold military power, such as Tian Mou, don't look at this person's fame and authority is not as good as Tian Tan, it is just because Tian is short-tempered, outspoken, and repeatedly contradicts the king, so he has been demoted many times, but in terms of prestige in the Daqi army, Tian Mu is not inferior to Tian Tan and Tian Yan. …… Don't underestimate others, if you and I try to kill Tian Xuan, the Binhai Tian clan will definitely have hatred, and maybe it will make Daqi internal instability. ”

At this point, he added one last sentence, and his tone was very resolute.

"This war may be the last battle in the king's life, and it is related to the peace of Daqi in the future, how can a brother frame Zhongliang for his own selfishness?"

"......" Zhao Hongrun looked at Ji Zhao deeply, and saw that he was resolute, so he nodded slowly, but on his lips, he still despised Tian Xuan: "That guy is also loyal?" ”

Seeing that the royal brother in front of him had finally dispelled his thoughts, Ji Zhao put his mind at ease and said with a smile: "This matter cannot be generalized." Hongrun doesn't know, although Tian Xuan has repeatedly targeted his brother, but this person's ability is not small, do you know that the pre-war preparations for this battle are borne by the right minister. …… If this person is a mediocre person, how can the king promote this person to the position? ”

Zhao Hongrun was silent, eating dried plums and drinking tea.

Seeing this, Ji Zhao said again: "Don't worry, Hongrun, after this matter is over, my brother will find a way to balance Tian Xuan, if he is stubborn, he will have to ...... Remove it. As he spoke, he looked up at Zhao Hongrun, smiled and said, "Although my brother's talent is not as good as that of Hongrun, it is not so easy to be defeated." ”

Zhao Hongrun glanced at Ji Zhao again when he heard this.

In all fairness, he didn't think that the royal brother in front of him was inferior to him in any way, but there was only one point, that is, this royal brother was not ruthless enough, indecisive, and forward-looking.

If it were him Zhao Hongrun, how could Tian Xuan dare to act so recklessly?

Look at him in the court of Wei, who dares to speak loudly in front of him, the king of Su?

Not...... Except for the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Historian.

"When the interruption continues, it is chaotic. There are some things, Brother Wang should make a decision early. Saying that, Zhao Hongrun looked at Ji Zhao with the teacup, and said, "Don't forget, Brother Wang has six sisters-in-law and my little nephew who has not yet been born. ”

Ji Zhao pondered for a moment and nodded heavily.

Seeing his solemn expression, Zhao Hongrun said with a smile: "Why does Brother Wang look like this? In any case, behind Brother Wang, there is also my Great Wei, my father, and my younger brother......"

Hearing this, Ji Zhao's heart was full of warmth.

But then, I saw a strange smile on his face, and said softly: "Hongrun said this, so that Brother Wei was moved. …… It just so happened that there was something on my brother's side, and he needed the support of Hongrun and Dawei. ”

Seeing the smile on Ji Zhao's face, Zhao Hongrun had already guessed a few points, and suddenly said with a bitter face: "Sixth brother, are you deliberately setting a trap for your little brother?" Speaking of this, the smile on his face gradually retracted, and Zhengse asked, "Did King Qi invite Brother Wang to come?" ”

At this time, the expression on Ji Zhao's face also became serious.

Looking at the two at this moment, it is not so much the two brothers, but the commander of the Wei army and the left minister of the Qi State.

It is the so-called private affairs and business affairs.

"Yes." Looking directly at Zhao Hongrun's gaze, Ji Zhao nodded, and said, "The king hopes that on the tenth day of the ninth month, several armies will attack the Chu State. ”

"Count?" Zhao Hongrun was slightly stunned, because in his opinion, this crusade against the Chu State was not their Qi, Lu and Wei Three Kingdoms Alliance? How do you call it a number of roads?

Seeing that Zhao Hongrun's face was puzzled, Ji Zhao then instructed Fei Wei, the chief of the sect's guard, to take the march map and spread it on the table, pointing to several locations on the map and explaining one by one: "Right now, our army is here. On the 10th day of September, the three armies forcibly crossed the Hun River, and the troops were divided into three routes. West Road, from Hongrun you take Juyang, and then to the south, take Haoshang, cut off the west passage of Chudu Shouying. …… On the east road, Zhongli was taken by Tian, and then to the county, cutting off the east passage of Shouying. …… On the north road, the king's army waved south to capture Cai, and the troops came to Shouying City. …… The three-way army marched in unison and attacked Shouying on three sides. ”

Zhao Hongrun frowned when he heard this, and said: "There is nothing wrong with this tactic, the problem is, as far as I know, the state of Chu is ......."

As soon as he said this, he saw Ji Zhao wave his hand, and said with a smile: "Hongrun rest assured, for the understanding of the Chu State, we must be above you......" Speaking of this, he pointed his finger on the map to the south, and said in a deep voice: "Zhaoguan and Diyang, the former has Xiang Jia, the cousin of Xiang Mo, the general of the Chu State, who is both civil and military, and is by no means inferior to his brother; And the latter Diyang is the fiefdom of Diyang Jun Xiong Shang. …… Diyang Jun Xiong Shang is also the younger brother of Xiong Xu, the king of Chu, but unlike those Xiong nobles in Hongrun's impression, this person is brave and good at fighting, and once joined forces with Xiang Mo to suppress the Wuyue rebellion. These two people are bound to become an obstacle to General Tian Tan, so the king has already sent an envoy to visit the people of Wuyue, contact Shaokang, the leader of Wuyue, and persuade him to send troops to attack Zhaoguan and Diyang, so that the general Xiang Jiao and Diyang Jun Xiong Shang are forced to fall into a dilemma. ”

"......" touched his chin, and Zhao Hongrun was thoughtful.

At this time, Ji Zhao shifted his finger to the west of Shouying, looked at Zhao Hongrun and said: "General Tian Tan will meet Xiang Jiao, the general of the Chu State, and Xiong Shang, the general of Diyangjun, this time, in fact, when Hongrun you wave your army south, there is a chance that you will meet two people...... Speaking of this, he pointed his finger to two places on the map, and said in a deep voice: "Shouling Jun Jingshe, Xiling Jun Qu Ping...... These two people are from the Chu State Mi surname clan, although the relationship between their clan and the Xiong clan is not harmonious on weekdays, but at this moment, presumably these two will take action. …… Don't underestimate Jingshe, Qu Ping, and Xiong Shang, these three people are known as the three pillars of the Chu State, and they are also known as the four great generals of the Chu State together with Xiang Mo. ”

Please, that end is in the room clock right now...... You actually told me that I have to beware of Xiang Mo, and I have to face two other famous generals of Chu at the end of the Xiang level?

Zhao Hongrun's expression when he looked at Ji Zhao, how wonderful.

Seeing Zhao Hongrun's strange expression, Ji Zhao hurriedly said: "Hongrun, don't worry, let Brother Rong say it in detail." …… The reason why Shouling Jun Jingshe and Xiling Jun Qu Ping sat in these two places is because in this area, there is also a rebel army of the people of Wu Yue, which the state of Chu calls the rebels of West Yue, which echoes the rebel army of East Vietnam led by Shao Kang, the leader of the people of Wu Yue. …… The West Yue is more radical than the East Yue, and if it is heard that our army is conquering the Chu State, the West Yue will definitely raise troops. In this way, Shouling Jun Jingshe and Xiling Jun Qu Ping, at least one of them will be dragged in Xiyue. In order to protect the period, the king sent an envoy to Western Vietnam in disguise a few months ago to persuade the rebels in Western Vietnam. …… In this way, there is a five-way army. ”

"......" Zhao Hongrun's face became more and more solemn.

At this time, Ji Zhao looked up at Zhao Hongrun, and said with a complicated expression: "Hongrun, in fact, Tian Xuan is right, you have indeed been preserving the strength of the Wei army and avoiding confrontation with the Chu army. In this regard, Brother Wei's current position can't say anything, Brother Wei just wants to say a word...... If the state of Chu is hit hard, it will not only be a blessing for Great Qi, but also a good opportunity for Great Wei. …… Haven't you thought about making Great Wei replace Great Qi and become the overlord of the Central Plains? ”

"......" Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but feel a little moved.

After all, everything he has done so far is nothing more than to make Wei State stronger, and the so-called false name of the Central Plains overlord is still secondary, at least, so that Wei State does not have to worry about the threat of North Korea and South Chu State every night.

Seeing Zhao Hongrun's eyes move slightly, Ji Zhao struck while the iron was hot, and said softly: "I heard that Hongrun, you secretly transferred 50,000 cavalry from the north of Sichuan to the Shangshui area in the land of Sanchuan, but you have not moved so far, most likely to weigh the pros and cons of putting this cavalry into this battle." …… Right now, it is not only an opportunity for Daqi, but also a good opportunity for Dawei. Hit the state of Chu hard, regardless of Qi and Wei, they all have great benefits, and Hongrun cannot be missed. ”

“……”

Zhao Hongrun glanced at Ji Zhao deeply, and then turned his gaze to the marching map on the table.

To his surprise, the scale of the crusade against Chu by Lu Xi, the king of Qi, and his determination to devastate Chu hard, were all based on his prediction. (To be continued.) )
