『Wu Ji ......』

Zhao Hongrun looked at the young general who took the initiative to ask for help, and suddenly realized in his heart.

Only then did he remember that Gu Liangwei, Wu Majiao, and Wu Ji were also generals from Pingyu County, and he, Zhao Hongrun, had promised them that after this battle, their families would be taken to Wei.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Wu Ji, go to Pingyu alone, this king is worried that you won't be able to succeed." ”

"It's ...... Refuse?'

Wu Ji couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

At this moment, I saw Zhao Hongrun turn his head to look at Gu Liangwei and Wu Ma Jiao, and said with a smile: "Gu Liang, Wu Ma, this king still remembers that he promised you at the beginning, when the time is ripe, he should give you a force to return to Pingyu to take your family into my Great Wei, and now, this time is ripe...... Then are you two willing to go with General Wu Ji to capture Pingyu? ”

Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao were shocked when they heard this.

To be honest, in fact, they didn't have much interest in capturing the land of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, and they cared more about their families in Pingyu County after all, but the problem was that they didn't have the courage as the young and vigorous Wu Ji after all, and they didn't dare to mention this matter in front of Zhao Hongrun.

After all, the soldiers under their command were once soldiers under Xiong Hu and Xiong Tuo, and they didn't want to be misunderstood by Zhao Hongrun.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hongrun took the initiative to mention the matter, and kept saying that he still remembered the original promise, which made them very moved.

"I didn't expect His Highness to remember ......," Gu Liangwei muttered.

"Haha, this king's memory has always been good, but all the promises he has made will not be forgotten." Zhao Hongrun laughed and said, not forgetting to take this opportunity to appease the hearts of the generals.

No, I saw Gu Liangwei, Wu Majiao, and Wu Ji who looked excited. Looking at Zhao Hongrun with an expression of 'it should be so' on his face, Yan Mo of the Ping Xuan Army, Zuo Xunxi, Hua Yu, Gong Yesheng, Zuo Qiumu and others couldn't help but feel hot in their hearts.

Perhaps they can't help but sigh in their hearts: Only by following the lord who keeps in mind his commitment to his subordinates at all times can his subordinates have a head start.

"Would you like to? You have not yet answered this king. Zhao Hongrun quipped.

Hearing this, Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao hurriedly stood up, bowed to the ground, and shouted excitedly: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Su...... The last general takes the oath here. In this life, I am willing to die for His Royal Highness King Su! ”

Seeing this, Bailiba's heart moved, and he applauded gently.

Li Qi and other generals also applauded when they saw their generals taking the lead in applauding, and then Qu Cheng, Yan Mo and other generals of the Pingxuan Army also joined in the applause, and in the end, everyone in the whole room applauded.

"General Baili ......"

Zhao Hongrun glanced at Bailiba, and saw Bailiba winking at him. It immediately dawned in his heart: Bailiba obviously wanted to use this incident to infect the rest of the Chu generals, make them closer to the Great Wei, and dissolve the mustard in the hearts of the Chu and Wei people here.

I believe that Qu Cheng also knew about this matter, so he also joined in the applause, although he had a bad impression of Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao.

With a wave of his hand, everyone stopped applauding, and Zhao Hongrun smiled and said to Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao: "There is no need to swear so exaggeratedly, this king only asks." Do not fail the king's trust in you, when he has not done you any wrong. And the king was satisfied. ”

His words seemed to be for Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao, but in fact, they were said to every general of the Pingxuan Army, which could be heard by everyone present.

"Don't dare." Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao bowed their heads and said.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun put away the joke on his face. Zhengse said: "Gu Liang, Wu Ma, Wu Ji three generals listen to the order, this king ordered the three of you to lead the headquarters of the soldiers, after a short rest, immediately take the peace, during the period of all matters, the three of you will discuss by yourself." …… Go ahead! ”

"Obey!"

The three of them answered the order with serious faces.

Immediately. The three of them got up and hugged their fists to everyone present, and then left the Shuai Office: Since Zhao Hongrun ordered them to take the counties of Pingyu, it doesn't matter whether they participate in the follow-up military meeting or not.

Instead of continuing to listen to these strategic military discussions that had nothing to do with them, it was better to return to the army, let the soldiers bring enough food, and go straight to the Pingyu counties.

You must know that today's Pingyu counties are just the time to guard against emptiness.

"These two guys are finally gone......

Looking at the backs of Gu Liangwei and Wu Ma Jiao leaving, Qu Cheng tacitly exchanged glances with Yan Mo.

In Qu Cheng's eyes, Gu Liangwei and Wu Ma Jiao are quite eye-catching, relying on the fact that they are also generals who were personally subdued by Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, and did not put him Qu Cheng in his eyes in the past, and now these two guys are taking Wu Ji to attack the counties of Yu, Qu Cheng is very happy in his heart, because at least he has to see these two guys for a long time, staring at him with a pair of jealous and unhappy eyes all the time, even if it is because of a little thing, he has to report to Zhao Hongrun.

As for the 15,000 Ping Xuan army that the three of them took away, Qu Cheng didn't care at all, after all, he still had more than 35,000 troops under his command.

Even, Qu Cheng is more inclined to the current situation: after all, the heavier the military power under his hands, the easier it is to arouse the vigilance of Wei generals, and vigilance is not much different from distrust.

"Okay, the problem of Pingyu counties has been solved, whether it will be successful or not depends on the three of them......" clapping his hands to focus everyone's attention on the next words, Zhao Hongrun Zhengse said: "A few days ago, General Yan Mo mentioned to this king that the city of Runan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it will be the biggest obstacle for our army to enter Chu. …… However, in order to conquer the city before Xiong Tuo, the king of the city, our army must find a way to conquer this city. ”

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Qu Cheng, Yan Mo and the others.

The generals of the Junshui Battalion did not interject rashly, because they could see what Zhao Hongrun was waiting for.

I saw that Yan Mo, who seemed to have become the focus of everyone's attention, hesitated, clenched his fists and said: "Your Highness, Yan is willing to try, but ...... There is no guarantee of success. ”

What to try? It is nothing more than an attempt to deceive Runan County to see if he can deceive the Chu army in Runan City by virtue of his name as a 3,000-strong general under Xiong Tuo's original command.

I have to say that this is a very risky thing, after all, no one can guarantee whether Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, has fled back to Chu at the moment.

If it is unlucky, Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, has fled back to the state of Chu, and Runancheng has also received the news of the rout of the front-line army, then, not only will the plan to seek Runan fail, but even Yan Mo may not be able to get out of Runan City alive.

After all, the Chu State has always been strict in its punishment methods for deserters, let alone the generals of the enemy country.

Don't look at Yan Mo who said very conservatively, saying that "there is no guarantee of success", but Zhao Hongrun did not doubt him because of this, after all, Yan Mo has no choice now: he has surrendered to Wei once, even if he tells everything in front of Xiong Tuo, he will no longer gain Xiong Tuo's trust, and I believe that Yan Mo will not do such a stupid thing.

Therefore, Yan Mo's only choice was to help Zhao Hongrun capture the territory of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, and try to earn Zhao Hongrun's impression of him, so that he could live a prosperous life in Wei in the future.

It was precisely because he could no longer fall to Xiong Tuo and the Chu State that there were only two endings in front of him: either he would successfully take Runan, or he would die at the hands of the Chu soldiers in Runan City.

In fact, Zhao Hongrun has been waiting for Yan Mo to take the initiative to ask for his life, after all, whether it is him or the Wei generals of the Junshui Battalion, it is not suitable to mention it, otherwise it is easy to arouse Yan Mo's disgust. But if Yan Mo took the initiative to ask for his life, it would be another matter.

However, in order to appease Yan Mo, Zhao Hongrun still made a generous promise.

Without further ado, Yan Mo immediately resigned and went to prepare, he wanted to select some yellow-faced and thin-skinny soldiers from the Pingxuan sergeants under his command, so that they could pretend to be defeated soldiers who fled back from the front line.

And before leaving, he also had to find a way to coerce and lure those soldiers, lest any of these soldiers do bad things at that time, not only ruining the Wei army's plan to capture Runan County, but also killing him Yan Mo.

During this period, Zhao Hongrun also sent Li Qi, the general of the Junshui battalion, to lead a Wei soldier of the Junshui battalion to change into the leather armor of the Chu soldiers, and followed Yan Mo from afar.

It's not out of suspicion, it's just to assist Yan Mo and cooperate with him inside and outside to seek Runan.

And after making the decision to let Yan Mo find a way to take Runan City, Zhao Hongrun made the generals retreat, although he had a lot of things to order, but before Runan City was conquered, these things were said in vain.

That night, the worried Zhao Hongrun once again had insomnia, people who have a lot of ideas are not good at this, they often think about various endings and corresponding countermeasures before things come to fruition, so that they think left and right, and often have insomnia.

No, not long after the team of Yan Mo and Li Qi set off, he began to think about whether he should attack Runan or detour in case of failure in his attempt to win Runan.

And it turned out that his painstaking meditation for a night was really redundant, probably because of the heavy snow and the road closure, Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, had not fled back to Chu, and the Chu army in Runan City had not yet learned the news of the rout of the front-line army.

Let the Chu generals who were guarding the city see Yan Mo, a general under the command of Xiong Tuo, who also belonged to the city Junxiong Tuo, come to the city and call the door, and was shocked, and ordered the Chu soldiers to open the city gate and let Yan Mo enter the city without even asking in detail.

What he never expected was that Yan Mo took the opportunity to kidnap him, and made the Pingxuan soldiers under his command, and cooperated with the Junshui battalion soldiers under Li Qi's command to quickly control Runan City and force the Chu army in the city.

On 13 November, the Wei army conquered the city of Runan almost without blood.

Don't look at how easy it is to seize this city, but in fact, it is just by virtue of Yan Mo's relationship. Otherwise, no matter how brave the Wei soldiers of the Junshui Battalion were, they would not be able to overcome the northern barrier of the Chu State in a short period of time.

"Good!"

After receiving the good news sent by Yan Mo and Li Qi, Zhao Hongrun was very happy, because the capture of Runan not only meant that the problem of food and grass for the army was solved, but also meant that the territory of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, would be in a state of almost undefended for the Wei army.

The Wei army was able to use Runan City as a base and quickly capture a large area of territory under the rule of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng. (To be continued.) )
