In the early morning of the first day of September, it was about midnight. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The sky was still bright and bright, and Tian Tan, the commander of the Qi army on the East Road, straddled his mount and entered the city from the south gate of Su County with a sinking face.

It stands to reason that Su County, a heavy city of grain hoarding in the rear, has been conquered, and Tian Tan should feel happy.

But he couldn't be happy.

Because the Wei army on the west road stole the exploits that should have belonged to the Qi army on the east road!

Recalling last night, the Northern Navy and the Lang Evil Army of the Qi Army on the East Road, the generals of these two armies fought hard with the Chu army, and I don't know how many brave soldiers were killed during the battle, but what was the result? However, the Qi army only captured a few insignificant areas.

On the other hand, the Wei army, taking advantage of the battle between their Qi army and the Chu army, quietly entered the city through the west city gate, occupied the city guard mansion almost without hindrance, and occupied the granary land where a lot of grain and grass were hoarded before their Qi army.

In this regard, Tian Tan was also very angry.

But in addition to being angry, he was also a little surprised by Zhao Hongrun's eyes: because this time the Wei army was behind, it meant that Zhao Hongrun had already guessed that he Tian Tan would choose to attack at night.

Of course, although Tian Tan was a little surprised by this, he was not incomprehensible.

After all, his intention to attack Su County at night, the Chu general named Wu Yuan could see it clearly, and in Tian Tan's opinion, Zhao Hongrun's vision was still above the Chu general Wu Yuan, so it was not strange that this son could guess his Tian Tan's actions.

To blame, he can only blame him for being careless, not cautious enough, and not understanding Zhao Hongrun enough, so that while he was plotting against Chu General Wu Yuan, he did not guard against Zhao Hongrun coming to steal the credit.

Zhao Hongrun, or Ji Run, this sixteen-year-old boy is not easy to deal with, this point, Tian Tan had experienced the amazing momentum of this son in the suburbs of Su County a few days ago.

A young man who was powerless and had not yet been weakened was able to suppress a battle-hardened Qi army general in terms of momentum, so that the generals were afraid to squeak, and even he Tian Tan felt a little frightened at that time.

Wei Wang Ji Si, what kind of blessing did he create in his previous life to give birth to sons like Lord Ji Zhao and Wei Gongzirun......

Tian Tan couldn't help but say a word of injustice for his own king (Lu Xi, King of Qi).

As they gradually approached the center of Suxian County, the number of Wei soldiers patrolling back and forth on the streets gradually increased.

Because Tian Tan was wearing Qi style armor, these Wei soldiers all looked at Tian Tan and his party coldly, and even some of them showed gloating smiles.

What are these people laughing at, Tian Tan is very clear, it is nothing more than that the Qi army on his east road fought hard for a night last night, but the important area in the county was occupied by these Wei soldiers.

"Too much deception!"

On the left side of Tian Tan's mount, a personal soldier general saw this scene and was immediately furious, raising his hand and raising his whip to draw it towards one of the Wei soldiers with a mocking smile on his face, but was grabbed by the quick-eyed Tian Tan.

"What do you do?" Tian Tan frowned and questioned the attendant, and said unhappily: "Are you trying to provoke the fratricidal confrontation between the Wei army and our army?" ”

"I don't dare." After being snatched away by Tian Tan, the attendant lowered his head, clenched his fists and said, "The humble position is just angry...... Wei Jun's behavior last night was very despicable! ”

"......" Tian Tan was silent for a moment, and then he handed back the horsewhip in his hand to the attendant, and said lightly: "I'll talk about it when I see Ji Run." ”

With that, he glanced at the merchant soldiers along the road, and rode his horse in the direction of the city guard without saying a word.

I have to say that Tian Tan has thought a lot: don't look at the Shang Shui Army is now the army of the Wei State, but the soldiers in this army are from the Chu State after all, maybe these people will be prejudiced against the Qi Army because of the huge casualties of the Chu Army in Suxian County.

If the relationship between the Shang Shui Army and the Qi Army was good before, it would be fine, but the problem is that the relationship between the two armies has become very bad because of the Qi County incident.

What's worse is that a few days ago, Zhao Hongrun lectured him a lesson on the generals under Tian Tan in the suburbs because of the incident in Qi County, and it can be seen that His Royal Highness King Su is a very protective person, so that if the Shang Shui army with the support of His Royal Highness King Su is offended by the Qi soldiers because they are angry at the behavior of the Wei army yesterday, it will cause an unnecessary civil war between the two armies.

Looking at the three Wei armies, the Fencheng Army, the Yanling Army, and the Shangshui Army, only Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, could restrain these Wei soldiers, so before meeting Zhao Hongrun, Tian Tan would never allow any of his soldiers to make any offense to the Wei soldiers out of consideration for the overall situation.

After a short time, Tian Tan and his army came to the city guard mansion, that is, the place where the Chu general Wu Yuan once lived, and now, this has become the commander of the Wei army, Tian Tan guessed that Zhao Hongrun should have already entered the city, and it was in this mansion.

It is precisely because of the special nature of this place that the Wei army here is also the largest.

It may be that the Wei army has not yet arranged a resting place for the soldiers under its command, so the streets are full of Wei soldiers sitting there with weapons in their hands and resting.

Similar to the patrolling Wei soldiers encountered just now, the Wei soldiers in the vicinity also showed mocking smiles when they saw Tian Tan and his party.

Even, a few people pointed to the direction of the gatehouse of the city guard mansion - there, Zhao Hongrun's royal flag with the words Wei and Su Wang was waving in the wind.

Hum!

Tian Tan secretly snorted coldly, his face revealing a little unswerving.

However, he didn't bother to surrender his identity and deal with these Wei soldiers, so he drove his mount straight to the city guard's mansion, hugged his fists and said to those Su Wangwei who were guarding outside the mansion: "Tian wants to see King Su." ”

Su Wangwei's guard chief Cen Zhan was outside the mansion, and when he heard this, he clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Tian Shuai is polite." …… His Royal Highness had already instructed that if it was Tian Shuai, he could enter directly. ”

……

Tian Tan frowned slightly.

Zhao Hongrun guessed that he would come, Tian Tan was not surprised, what surprised him was Zhao Hongrun's attitude towards him.

It should be reasonable to say that Zhao Hongrun instructed Wei Jun to do such a shameful act last night, and he should feel ashamed and unwilling to meet him Tian Tan, how can it be as if he wished he would come.

With suspicion, Tian Tan ordered his entourage to stay outside the mansion, and walked into the mansion with only a few personal guards.

Under the guidance of Cen Zhan, the head of the Su Wangwei Guard, Tian Tan came to the inner courtyard garden in the mansion.

I saw that on the stone bench in the garden of the inner courtyard, a few simple dishes had already been prepared.

Tian Tan took a second look and found that it was really an extremely ordinary dish: pickles, salted meat, and broth in a bronze pot.

Except for the broth, which I don't know what kind of meat it is, the other two are all military dishes.

And in addition to that, there is a pot of rice porridge.

What does that mean?

Tian Tan looked back at Su Wang Wei Chang Cen Zhan.

Cen Zhan understood and explained with a smile: "My Royal Highness knows that Tian Shuai has not finished the rice since last night, so he specially ordered me to cook a pot of porridge and invite Tian Shuai to eat together." ”

Tian Tan frowned when he heard this, he really couldn't understand what Zhao Hongrun was thinking, but as Cen Zhan said, he was really hungry in his stomach at the moment.

So, he was not polite, and after sitting down, he drank porridge with pickled vegetables and fresh meat, and after a few sips, he casually asked, "Where is your Royal Highness?" It can't be some kind of trick again, is it? ”

Of course, Cen Zhan knew why Tian Tan was in such a tone, and explained with a smile when he heard this: "Tian Shuai, wait a minute, His Highness is bathing in the mansion. ”

"That's a lot!"

Tian Tan snorted coldly, but didn't say anything more.

I don't know how long it took, Zhao Hongrun, who had finished bathing and changing, and Shi Shiran came here from the house and sat opposite Tian Tan.

During this period, Tian Tan heard the movement and glanced up, but because there was still food in his mouth, he did not greet Zhao Hongrun.

Seeing the two of them drinking porridge quietly, it was hard to imagine that the two actually looked down on each other.

Tian Tan ate early, but he had a big appetite, and although Zhao Hongrun ate late, he had a relatively small appetite, so it was a coincidence that the two put down their chopsticks almost at the same time.

At this time, Tian Tan vented the dissatisfaction in his heart.

"Childe Ji Run, regarding your army's actions yesterday, I hope Gongzi can give Tian a certain explanation."

"Explain?" Zhao Hongrun smiled and said, "What explanation does Tian Shuai need?" ”

Does this need to be asked?

Tian Tan's two thick eyebrows suddenly condensed, and he said unhappily: "Yesterday, your army took advantage of the battle between our army and the Chu army in the city to reap the profits...... If such an act of your army is spread, I am afraid it will cause criticism! ”

Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun shrugged his shoulders and pretended to regret and said, "It turns out that Tian Shuai is referring to this matter, but ...... What can I do if I have done everything? ”

"You ......," Tian Tan was speechless.

At this moment, he saw Zhao Hongrun laughing and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this king is just joking." After that, he slowly put away the smile on his face, and said to Tian Tan: "Tian Shuai, in fact, this king doesn't think that our army needs to give your army an explanation. ”

Seeing that Zhao Hongrun was so serious, Tian Tan put away the anger on his face, frowned and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

I saw Zhao Hongrun raise a finger and said lightly: "First of all, our army entered the city around midnight last night. According to the agreement between this king and Tian Shuai, today should be attacked by our Wei army Suxian, in this case, this king asked his soldiers to enter the city after the son, what is the fault? Speaking of this, this king wants to ask Tian Shuai, why should your army not attack Suxian today, why does your army occupy the north and south gates? ”

Belch?

Tian Tan was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered that he had indeed made this agreement with Zhao Hongrun.

"Isn't it the sunrise time limit?" Tian Tan asked a little dazed.

Zhao Hongrun smiled dumbly, shook his head and said: "The date in the world, how can there be a time limit for sunrise and sunset?" Of course, it's based on the sub-time. ”

I have to say that Zhao Hongrun deliberately took advantage of loopholes here.

Because in this era, there are indeed many people who take sunrise and sunset as the time limit, especially in the military, for example, what should I do before sunrise and how I should be before sunset often appear in military orders, and few people will say how I should be before the time of the child.

Seeing that Tian Tan was silent, Zhao Hongrun chuckled lightly and said, "This is one of them." …… Secondly, when your army attacked Suxian at night yesterday, as far as this king knows, your army took advantage of the gap created by our army in the northern city wall, right? Speaking of this, he leaned closer, lowered his voice and said, "Who is it that broke the rules first, General Tian Tan?" ”

……

Tian Tan glanced at Zhao Hongrun deeply, and at this moment, he suddenly had a guess: it may have been as early as when he Tian Tan tried to create a gap in the southern city wall of Su County, this young King Su had already guessed his intentions.

It's horrible...... And a rare rival!

Faintly, Tian Tan seemed to feel that the blood in his whole body was about to boil, so that after staying up all night, he did not feel tired at all, but was full of energy.

I saw him staring at Zhao Hongrun, and suddenly smiled: "It's really good...... Tian hadn't felt this way for a long time. Ji Run, are you willing to make another bet with Tian? ”

……

Zhao Hongrun was slightly shocked in his heart, because he vaguely felt that Tian Tan in front of him, the momentum of the whole person suddenly became different.

It seems to be a tiger gradually waking up, a little less lazy and careless, and a little more aggressive and domineering.

"I want to hear about it!" Zhao Hongrun Zhengse said.

I saw Tian Tan lick his lips and said in a deep voice: "Just bet on your Wei army on the west road and my Qi army on the east road, which side will plant the flag on the city of Shouying, the king of Chu, first!" ”

Playing so big?

Even if it was Zhao Hongrun, he was also shocked by Tian Tan's bold words, you must know that as far as he knows, near the king of Chu, Shouying, there are hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops of the Chu State, but in Tian Tan's words, it seems that it is just a rabble.

"Bet on what?"

After thinking about it, Zhao Hongrun asked in a deep voice.

I saw a trace of coldness flashing in Tian Tan's eyes, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Just bet on your royal banner and Tian's general flag!" ”

Zhao Hongrun was stunned when he heard this.

Don't look at a flag, even if it is Zhao Hongrun's Wang Banner, the cost will not be high, but the question is the meaning of this kind of flag, which is extraordinary. (To be continued.) )
