Chapter 756: The End of the Era

When Zhao Hongrun and his party rode a war horse to the military camp of the Qilu Coalition Army, the entire military camp had already entered a state of alert. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The crossbowmen of the Qi State on the watchtower of the military camp also aimed their crossbows at Zhao Hongrun and his party.

"Mi-"

Zhao Hongrun grabbed the reins, gradually slowed down, and shouted at the Qi soldiers not far away: "This king is Ji Run, the commander of the Wei army on the West Road, if you have something important, let him go quickly." ”

As soon as the words fell, the camp gate quickly opened, and a general hurriedly walked out, came to Zhao Hongrun, hugged his fists, and said in a dull tone: "The last general is Zhang Wu of the Flying Bear Army, and he is waiting for Gongzi Run on the order of Zuo Xiang." ”

The people of the sixth brother?

Zhao Hongrun was slightly stunned, and then he was relieved: it was obviously his sixth brother Ji Zhao who had already guessed that he would come, so he specially sent someone to come to answer.

After all, something like Qi King Lu Xi fainted and fell off the horse for no reason, how could Zhao Hongrun not come?

"Hmm." Zhao Hongrun nodded at Zhang Wu, then frowned and asked, "What is the current situation?" ”

Zhang Wu, the general of the Flying Bear Army, shook his head bitterly, and then took the reins from the hands of several soldiers next to him, turned over and got on his horse, and said to Zhao Hongrun: "The situation is urgent, Lord Zuo Xiang asked Gongzi Run to go to the tent immediately after arriving." ”

"Labor leads the way."

"How dare you. …… Please. ”

Under the leadership of Zhang Wu, the general of the Flying Bear Army, Zhao Hongrun and his party smoothly passed through the camp of the Qi army and went to the tent in the depths of the camp.

During this period, Zhao Hongrun looked at the soldiers of the two armies of Qilu and Qilu that he met along the way, and faintly found that these soldiers were demoralized one by one, and there seemed to be some sorrow between their eyebrows, so that the whole military camp always felt a little lifeless, not as vigorous and energetic as when they came the first few times.

It seems that the accident of Lu Xi, the king of Qi, has spread throughout the army? …… It's not good.

Zhao Hongrun frowned deeply.

You must know that in the army of this era, the "leader effect" has a particularly huge impact on ordinary soldiers, such as Lu Xi, the king of Qi, such as Shouling Jun Jingshe, under the leadership of such a leader full of bright halo, the soldiers are often excited because they are fortunate to be under the command of such a big man, so that they can play a better strength than usual.

On the other hand, if something happens to such a proud hero or leader, the whole army will collapse faster.

A phenomenon akin to the collapse of faith.

And now, in front of tens of thousands of Qilu coalition troops, Lu Xi, fell from his war horse for no reason in front of tens of thousands of Qilu coalition troops, one can imagine what kind of shock it caused to these 200,000 Qilu coalition troops.

If the Chu army counterattacks at this time, I am afraid that the two armies of Qilu will be defeated......

Zhao Hongrun was secretly anxious in his heart, but there was nothing he could do at the moment, after all, the personality charm of Lu Xi, the king of Qi, was too great, and besides, he was in a hurry to visit the situation of Lu Xi, the king of Qi, and he didn't have the heart to meddle in this kind of thing.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Hongrun and his entourage came to the commander's tent in the army under the guidance of Zhang Wu.

I saw that at this moment, the handsome tent where Lu Xi, the king of Qi, was located, had already been surrounded by the Flying Bear Army, and it was strictly protected, and as far as the eye could see, there were burly and elite Flying Bear guards everywhere.

"Who's coming?" When an officer of the Flying Bear Army saw Zhao Hongrun and his party, he immediately waved his hand, causing the nearby Flying Bear Guards to surround him.

Even if it was in the camp of the Qi army, facing Zhang Wu, the general of the Flying Bear Army, those Flying Bear Guards were still so cautious and vigilant, it was conceivable that this matter was important.

"Stand down." Zhang Wu rode his horse to the front of the team and introduced: "This is the son of Ji Run, the commander of the Wei army on the Western Road, this general is ordered by the left minister to guide Ji Run to this point and let him go!" ”

The officer of the Flying Bear Army did not talk nonsense, and immediately sent a Flying Bear Guard to the tent to communicate, and after a while, the Flying Bear Guard walked out of the tent and shouted loudly: "Please Ji Rungongzi." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun turned over and dismounted, straightened his clothes, and walked to the handsome tent.

At this time, Wei Jiao and several other Zong Wei also wanted to follow, but they were stopped by the officer of the Flying Bear Army: "Please forgive Prince Ji Run." ”

Zhao Hongrun nodded in understanding, turned his head and said to the guards behind him and Su Wangwei, "Wei Jiao, you are waiting here." ”

Wei Jiao and the other Zong Wei frowned slightly, a little worried about letting His Royal Highness out of sight.

However, they can also understand the nervousness of these Flying Bear Guards at this moment, who made Qi King Lu Xi at the moment when his life is at stake.

Thinking of this, Wei Jiao and the others nodded, and retreated a little to the periphery with interest, holding a certain distance from Shuai Tent.

At this time, Zhao Hongrun had already stepped into the handsome tent.

I saw that at this moment, in the handsome tent, it was overcrowded, whether it was the lord of the Lu State or the secretary of the Lu State, or the right minister of the Qi State, Tian Xuan, the general, and Zhao Hongrun's sixth brother Ji Zhao, but all the people who were qualified to enter this handsome tent were crowded inside, so that there was chaos in the tent.

Lu Xi, the king of Qi, won't he already hang up?

Zhao Hongrun looked around a few times, and he vaguely saw that Lu Xi, the king of Qi, was lying on the sleeper in the tent, and an old man who seemed to be a doctor was diagnosing.

What made Zhao Hongrun secretly breathe a sigh of relief was that Qi King Lu Xi seemed to still have a breath and could still speak, but his voice was very weak.

At this time, in front of the couch of Lu Xi, the king of Qi, Tian Xuan and a group of ministers of Qi knelt on the ground and wept - a group of people who were not small were holding the hands of Lu Xi, the king of Qi, and howling, tears and snot flew sideways, as if the sky was falling.

Not...... Having said that, for the Qi Kingdom, if the king of Qi Lu Xi dies, it really doesn't make much difference if the sky really falls.

Zhao Hongrun frowned slightly, and then walked a few steps to the corner quietly, he didn't want those people's tears and snot to splash on him.

At this time, Tian Yan noticed Zhao Hongrun's arrival, and after nodding at the latter as a greeting, he whispered a few words to Lu Xi, the king of Qi lying on the couch.

After that, I heard Lu Xi, the king of Qi, say in a weak voice: "Okay, okay, the widow is not dead yet, why are you crying?" …… Ji Run, little guy, come to the widow's side. ”

There was no way to do it now, Zhao Hongrun let out a long breath and carefully walked through the crowd, he paid extra attention to his robe, so as not to get stained with the saliva, snot, and tears of those people.

"Little guy, what's the situation on Shouying's side?"

When Zhao Hongrun walked to the couch, Lu Xi, the king of Qi, took the lead in asking about it.

Zhao Hongrun didn't care about Lu Xi's title of little guy, because this was a relatively intimate title, and he had already learned from his sixth brother Ji Zhao that His Majesty of Qi was very fond of him, and he couldn't wait to get another daughter out and let him be his second son-in-law.

Arching his hand, Zhao Hongrun Zhengse said: "Your Majesty King Qi, rest assured, in addition to my Wei army and below, General Tian Tan's army has also entered the city, and Shouying is already in the pocket of my coalition army." …… When he came, the boy had ordered a fierce attack, and if nothing else, he could take the city today and tomorrow. ”

"Good, good, good." Lu Xi, the king of Qi, said three good words in a row, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said self-deprecatingly: "The matter is critical, but there is such a fork, and there is no one to ...... Hehehe, the widow is really ......"

Seeing that Lu Xi's emotions gradually became a little excited, the old doctor sitting next to the couch immediately reminded: "King, don't be excited. ”

Qi King Lu Xi was silent for a moment, waved his hand weakly and said, "Stand down." …… Please stay, Tian Yan, my son, you two also stay. ”

The son in his mouth refers to his son-in-law Ji Zhao.

Hearing this, the ministers of Qi in the tent cried for a while, and then left the tent in a daze.

This scene made Zhao Hongrun secretly despise: loyalty, how can you pretend to wipe a few tears at such a time?

During this period, Zhao Hongrun noticed that when Tian Xuan, the right minister of Qi State, left the tent, there was a trace of resentment hidden in his sad face.

Thinking about it so far, everyone can see that Lu Xi, the king of Qi, is going to explain the future, which means that the one who remains in the tent at the moment will be the minister of Tuogu, obviously the right minister Tian Xuan did not get it.

After everyone left, Lu Xi, the king of Qi, sat up with difficulty with the help of the lord of the Lu State, and then, he sighed and said to the prince: "The lord of the country, the widow will not become a ......."

"Brother." The eyes of the lord of the country of Lu were red, and he could see that his expression did not look like a fake.

It's no wonder, after all, it is said that Lu Xi and Gong Yi Pan have known each other for decades, when Lu Xi was still a son, he was friendly with Gong Yi Pan, who was a proton in Linzi at that time, and later Lu Xi ascended the throne as king, and with his help, Gong Yi Pan also became the lord of Lu State.

From that moment on, the relationship between Qi and Lu became more stable, and the state of Qi ushered in its heyday - the era when Lu Xi, the king of Qi, dominated the Central Plains.

Decades of brotherly love, and now I hear that the king of Qi in front of me, who is not a brother but is better than a brother, said something like that, even if he is the lord of the Lu country, he can't help but cry.

“…… It is a pity that the state of Chu was not destroyed this time. After the widow passed away, my son will be in charge of the state affairs of the Great Qi, although this son is not from the widow......" Speaking of this, Lu Xi, the king of Qi, paused, and then said to Gong Yipan: "For the sake of Qilu's friendship for a hundred years, I will help the lord of the country in the future." ”

"This should be, this should be ......," Gong Yipan nodded repeatedly.

At this time, Lu Xi, the king of Qi, called Ji Zhao and Tian Yan in front of him again, and instructed them: "The eldest sons of the widow are not successful...... The youngest son is white, five years old, still a little smart, if you can assist, then supplement, if you can't assist, my son, the daughter of you and concubine, he will be the king of my Daqi one day. ”

Hearing this, Ji Run's complexion changed greatly, he hurriedly knelt down, and said in a loud voice: "How dare the little son-in-law have such a non-trivial thought? …… The king can rest assured, there is a son-in-law alive for one day, and the great Qi will be the Qi of the Lu family forever! ”

……

Zhao Hongrun saw it really on the side, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He had to admit that Qi King Lu Xi's trick of retreating was indeed ingenious, and he deceived the heart of his sixth brother in just two sentences.

Well, even if he wants to put his sixth brother or a nephew who has not yet been born on the throne, it will be no play, after all, Zhao Hongrun is still very clear about the temper and character of this sixth brother.

Brilliant!

Zhao Hongrun pursed his lips secretly. (To be continued.) )
