"You're not going to say a word?"

Zhao Hongrun was cold, and suddenly turned his head and said to Pingyujun Xiong Hu.

"Say...... What the? "Pingyujun Xiong Hu seems to be a little at a loss.

It's no wonder that even a fool can see that Qu Cheng's surrender is greasy, but the problem is that Xiong Hu, the Pingyu Jun who was angry at Qu Cheng and surrendered to Zhao Hongrun, did not consider whether Qu Cheng's surrender was possible at all.

To put it simply, he was stunned by what he saw with his own eyes, and he felt like his brain didn't have time to think.

"Anyway, you can also shout a few words like 'Qu Cheng, my Xiong Hu will never be ungrateful', otherwise how can this king's words continue?" Frowning and glancing at Pingyujun Xiong Hu, Zhao Hongrun said dissatisfiedly: "It's really not cooperative!" …… Forget it, Qu Cheng, this king will say it for him! Don't worry, Qu Cheng, I, Xiong Amber, will never be ungrateful. ”

"......" Qu Cheng looked at Zhao Hongrun with a strange expression.

"Isn't it a lot more reassuring?" Zhao Hongrun asked with a smile.

"......" The expression on Qu Cheng's face became even more strange, and he looked at Zhao Hongrun without saying a word.

"Do you know why this king said this for him? Because even if he said something like that, it wouldn't have any effect...... As the king said, the human heart is very, very complicated...... Even if Xiong Hu patted Xiong Hu and swore to the sky today, and he was not guilty of what you had just done, would you trust him completely? No! Even if you exclude Xiong Amber, you will gradually become suspicious, and in the future, you will continue to think, 'Although I saved him, I also hurt him, and I also saw the way he was humiliated, will he take revenge?' Kill me to forget the humiliation I suffered in the Wei camp?' ”

"......," Qu Cheng frowned when he heard this. I couldn't help but glance at Pingyujun Xiong Hu.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Hongrun smiled, waved his hand and said, "You don't have to look at him, this time the king is talking about you." …… Speaking of which? Oh, and when it comes to the possibility that you'll be speculating from time to time, 'Will Xiong Hu harm you'. Why? Because you hurt him and did something that you couldn't even tolerate...... This can be understood as guilt. But this guilt can eventually turn into worry, even fear. …… People are quite terrifying under the threat of fear, and gradually, the speculation of "will Xiong Hu harm you Qu Cheng" will evolve into "If Xiong Hu really comes to harm me, what will I do?" until it eventually evolves into 'Am I being caught?' Or do you want to strike first?' ”

"......" Qu Cheng licked his dry lips, revealing a pensive look.

"When occupied by fear, people's minds change. If Xiong Amber is good to you. You think, 'Is he going to do something to me and make a deliberate gesture to let my guard down?' If he treats you badly, you think, 'He's getting colder and colder to me, and it looks like he's going to do something to me.'......" Hehehe, so when you pierce Xiong Amber's leg with a knife. Your end is already doomed. Either surrender to the king, or. Just wait for Xiong Hu to settle accounts after the autumn, whether it is ten years or twenty years, he will kill you sooner or later. ”

“……”

Qu Cheng pondered quietly, and after a long time of tea, he let out a long sigh and looked at Zhao Hongrun with complicated eyes. He smiled bitterly and said, "Your Royal Highness King Su, you are the most ...... of the enemies Qu has encountered so far Most...... I really don't know how to describe it. He shook his head with a wry smile.

Zhao Hongrun smiled slightly, and then asked, "So...... What are you going to do? This king doesn't want you to choose to die, because this king is really optimistic about you...... Ben Wang can't promise too much. But you are the only one of the 'Xiong Qu Clan' clansmen, and I believe that Great Wei also has a place that can accommodate you. ”

『……』

Qu Cheng glanced at Zhao Hongrun deeply, laughed at himself, and then slowly bent over, knocked on one knee and clenched his fists with both hands: "So-and-so...... Surrender! ”

Looking at this scene, Pingyujun Xiong Hu opened his mouth slightly, but he couldn't say anything halfway.

He finally understood what Zhao Hongrun's so-called "sprinkling salt in his heart" meant, because Zhao Hongrun's sharp words not only dispelled the mutual suspicion of Gu Liangwei, Wu Majiao, and Wu Ji because of his words from Xiong Hu, the king of peace, but even rebelled against Qu Cheng, a general who was originally a deceitful surrender and was originally loyal to Xiong Hu.

What made Xiong Hu feel a strong sense of frustration was that listening to Zhao Hongrun's analysis from the perspective of people's hearts, he couldn't say anything powerful to refute the other party, and could only watch Qu Cheng gradually fall into Zhao Hongrun's language trap, and he couldn't climb out of it.

"It's the king who wins."

When leaving, Zhao Hongrun whispered a sentence in Xiong Hu's ear.

Looking at the fourteen-year-old King Su of Wei, Xiong Hu, the king of Pingyu, was worried for the safety of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, for the first time, and the safety of his Chu state.

After that, Pingyujun Xiong Hu was detained alone, and the four generals Qu Cheng, Gu Liangwei, Wu Majiao, and Wu Ji were called to a small tent not far away by Zhao Hongrun.

"What does Your Highness want me to wait for?"

In the small tent, the general Gu Liangwei was the first to ask.

Originally, as the person with the highest position among his four generals, Qu Cheng should have become their backbone, but because this person made a fraudulent move, Gu Liangwei, Wu Majiao, and Wu Ji did not trust him.

"It's simple." Glancing around at the four generals, Zhao Hongrun said in a low voice: "Today, this king will release all 30,000 prisoners of war, and the four of you will find a way to mix in them and return to the army of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng......"

The four of them nodded, not surprised, after all, this matter had already been mentioned by Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu.

"How does Your Highness want us to cooperate with the Wei army...... No, how do you cooperate with the soldiers of my dredging battalion? Gu Liangwei, who was not used to the name change, asked curtly.

Zhao Hongrun shook his head and said with a smile: "After returning to the army of Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, you don't have to do anything. ”

"......" Qu Cheng, Gu Liangwei, Wu Majiao, and Wu Ji glanced at each other in confusion, and said in their hearts, Didn't His Royal Highness King Su let them be the internal response, why did he tell them not to do anything?

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun explained: "You are the first batch of people to surrender to this king, and this king doesn't want you to be recognized by Xiong Tuo because of passing on news or something...... After you return to the Chu army, what is the past? Now it is still so, this king only needs you to do two things. ”

"Your Highness, please speak."

"First, if the 30,000 prisoners of war released by this king make trouble in the camp of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, you wait for the opportunity to set fire to Xiong Tuo's camp for this king."

Wu Majiao thought for a moment and wondered, "If 30,000 people make a rebellion. It is not difficult to take the opportunity to set fire to the camp...... But what if those 30,000 people don't make a mess? ”

"Then forget it." Zhao Hongrun smiled, shook his head and said, "Hehe, don't worry, it's only a matter of time before those 30,000 people make a rebellion, but I don't know how many of them dare to participate...... Of course, you can provoke a little later, but only if Xiong Tuo doesn't suspect you because of this. Otherwise, don't act rashly. The king does not want any of your four to die because of this. ”

"Understood." The four generals hugged their fists, and they were a little moved by Zhao Hongrun's weight.

"Your Highness, what about the second thing?"

"The second thing...... When the king defeated Xiong Tuo on the battlefield and persuaded the Wei soldiers to surrender, you stood up and tried to make the nearby Chu generals surrender to our army. …… For now, just two things. As for how to defeat Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, this king has his own way! ”

Seeing neither of these things is a difficult task. The four generals nodded happily.

"Well, without further ado. When the king orders the release of 30,000 prisoners of war. You see the right time to blend in, and if Xiong Tuo asks afterwards, he will say that you are mixed in with the soldiers...... Xiong Tuo may be suspicious of you, but as long as you don't act rashly and are safe, he won't be able to take any of your handles. so that it will not harm you. ”

"Understood." The four generals nodded.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun turned his head to look at Li Qi, the general of the Junshui Battalion: "General Li, please arrange it for them." ”

"The last will understand." Li Qi hugged his fists and said to Qu Cheng and the others: "Four, please come with so." ”

"Yes."

Qu Cheng, Gu Liangwei, Wu Majiao, and Wu Ji hugged their fists. followed Li Qi to the outside of the tent.

However, as soon as he walked outside the tent, he saw Liang Wei and Wu Majiao turn to face Qu Cheng, and threatened like a warning: "I two will always keep an eye on you...... Lord Qu Cheng. ”

Qu Cheng smiled bitterly, sighed, and nodded silently.

Standing near the tent and holding the tent, watching Qu Cheng, Gu Liangwei, Wu Ma Jiao, and Wu Ji walk away, the general of the Junshui Battalion turned around and asked Zhao Hongrun: "Is Your Highness sure?" To the four of them? ”

"It's not a complete trust yet...... Therefore, we have to do the matter of defeating Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, and we can't let them interfere...... These four people, this king has other expectations. ”

"I see." Bailiba nodded abruptly.

On the same day, Zhao Hongrun kept the "six-day covenant" he had promised, and indeed released the 30,000 Chu army prisoners in the camp.

After all, after the "prisoner exchange incident", many Chu soldiers were punched and kicked by the grumpy Wei soldiers to vent their anger, and at the same time, they also learned about this matter, and learned that because of the relationship between Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, the Wei army had to shoot more than a dozen Wei officials in Zhaoling County, and this matter spread to 10, 10, 10, and soon spread to 30,000 Chu soldiers, making them feel uneasy, for fear that His Royal Highness the King of Su of Wei would break his promise because of this incident.

Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness the King of Su of Wei not only fulfilled his promise, but also was extraordinarily gracious, allowing their 30,000 Chu soldiers to get two steamed buns each when they left the Wei army's Yanshui camp, so that they could satisfy their hunger on the way.

Of course, it was impossible to return the weapons and leather armor to them, after all, those things had become part of the Yanshui camp.

But even so, the 30,000 Chu soldiers were still grateful to Dai De, took the steamed buns in a proper manner, obeyed the order, and got out of the knife carriage passage at the gate of the camp one by one, and headed towards the Chu army camp twenty miles to the south that the Wei soldiers told them.

During this period, the four generals Qu Cheng, Gu Liangwei, Wu Majiao, and Wu Ji also mixed into the Chu soldiers under Li Qi's arrangement, and after getting out of the knife car passage, they rushed towards the south while biting on steamed buns.

Shi Junshui Battalion General Chun stood on the camp wall, looking at the 30,000 Chu soldiers with a strange face all heading towards the camp of Xiong Tuo, the Jun of Xuancheng, and couldn't help but say: "I don't know, then Xiong Tuo will be surprised that he won 30,000 soldiers for nothing......

Glancing at the Chu soldiers who were wearing only a thin shirt on their bodies, the general Gong Yuan tugged at the corners of his mouth, revealing a cold and weird smile.

"Surprise is for sure, but this is happy, then it may not be!" (To be continued.) )
