Chapter 509: Gift-giving
Song Zhuzhu returned to his sleeping tent and saw that his wife Ma Qigu had not woken up yet, so he quietly took off his boots and lay down beside her, planning to take a nap while the sky was still dark.
But he couldn't sleep, his heart fluctuated, and for a while his pride was close to the sky, as if he could hear the voice of the mountain shouting long live, and then he fell into deep doubt, unable to extricate himself, and wanted to pick himself up, slap him a few times, and then reprimand.
"You didn't come back all night." Ma Qigu woke up.
"Yes, I chatted with Xu Ji and Guo Shifeng for a night, and I woke you up?"
"You're breathing too loudly - I was going to wake up." Ma Qigu sat up, crawled over her husband, got out of bed and put on her clothes and shoes, "There is no march today, you can sleep more, I'll go out and have a look." ”
"I can't sleep." Song Zhuzhu also sat up, and suddenly smiled: "I haven't apologized to you yet." ”
"What apologies?" Ma Qigu was surprised.
"Originally, after the battle of Xiangyang was over, I would take everyone to the Xi family for revenge, but it turned out that I would go south to Hunan and Guangzhou."
"King Ning doesn't allow you to attack Jiangling, no one can do anything, anyway, King Ning's methods are ruthless enough, and he will definitely be able to avenge my father."
Ma Qigu was about to leave, but when she got to the door, she turned back, "You can't sleep because of something else." ”
Song Zhuzhu smiled, "I'm wondering, are the two of them working together to lie to me?" ”
"Tell me more about it."
Song Zhuzhu recounted last night's decision, and finally said: "I handed over most of the soldiers to Guo Shifeng, I didn't know anything about Xu Ji's detailed plan to go north, I didn't know what to do when I stayed in Jingzhou, and I had to prove to them that I was worthy of 'relying on' - at that time, I said that in Xingtou, I would be underestimated by them if I hesitated, so I had to accept it, but ......"
"You regret it a little now and don't want to admit the big things you said?" Ma Qigu said with a smile.
Song Zhuzhu nodded, "It's too risky, not long ago I was short of soldiers and food, Shan Yu and King Ning are more fierce than the other, I can be regarded as an escape from death, and finally have this little capital, although the army is unstable, and the grain and grass can only last for half a month, but it is also my biggest achievement since the incident, it is really a bit ...... Reluctant. ”
Ma Qigu sat down beside her husband and said in a harmonious voice: "If you want to be a robber, let's go into the mountains, only bring our own people, and don't care if he lives or dies in the southern soldiers, no matter what he thinks Xu Ji and Guo Shifeng, if you are still awkward in your heart, kill both of them." ”
Song Zhuzhu asked in surprise, "Madame, seriously?" ”
"The question is, do you want to be a robber?"
Song Zhuzhu was silent for a while, took out the seal of the king of Chu from his arms, rubbed it gently, and said firmly: "I don't want to." ”
Ma Qigu changed her gentle voice and said sternly: "In that case, what are you hesitating about? With your current military rations, there is not much chance of winning in the south, and compared with the Central Plains, you are a tiger and a cat. It's rare to have two world-renowned strategists who are willing to help you, and you still want to think about it, feel risky, and don't want anything. Haven't you ever thought about whether Xu Ji and Guo Shifeng are taking risks? The two of them are a hundred times safer than you when they go to either side, and those who value you are nothing more than can get complete trust from you, and if you hesitate, the two of them will have different doubts, and you will not even have the last chance of winning. ”
Song Zhuzhu hurriedly said: "I didn't show it, in front of the two of them, I didn't show it at all, I only said these inner words to Mrs." ”
"It's enough to talk. Let the two of them do it, let's not be idle, we really have to make a career, don't let the two of them underestimate it. ”
"After King Ning captured Jiangling City, he will go back to Wuzhou to rescue Stone City, as soon as he leaves, I will attack Yiling, although Yiling is small, it is the only way for Yizhou to go out of the river, and it can control the entry and exit of Yizhou soldiers and horses and grain and grass."
"It's up to you to decide this kind of thing, I'll follow you, anyway, I've been a robber since I was a child, and I've long been used to taking risks."
Song Zhuzhu held his wife's hands and said with a smile: "Madam is my virtuous helper, without you, I don't know how many mistakes I have to make." ”
Song took bamboo and didn't sleep, went out of the tent to visit the generals one by one, or knew it with affection, or moved it with reason, or forced it to threaten, or tempted it to benefit, and then called everyone in the tent, and officially appointed Guo Shifeng as the long history of the army, Dai Pohu as the general of the left road, and Mao Yuanti as the general of the right road.
Of course, Song Zhuzhu couldn't say that he stayed in Jingzhou, but only said that he wanted to be the governor and discuss the world's major affairs with King Ning, and he would soon go to Xiangzhou to join the army.
The generals were worried that King Ning would be angry, so they were deeply convinced of General Song's decision.
It was already afternoon after the matter was dealt with, and Song Zhuzhu was still in good spirits, invited Guo Shifeng to drink, and introduced the generals under his command to him, without the slightest barrier.
Guo Shifeng was very happy, and used all his skills to make friends with the generals, but he was just courteous to Song Zhuzhu.
Xu Ji didn't participate in the banquet and stayed in the tent to think about things.
It wasn't dark yet, and Guo Shifeng suddenly came, with a slight panic on his face.
"What's wrong?" Xu Ji got up and asked, thinking that this wine banquet would last for a long time.
"King Ning sent a messenger."
"Hmm."
"The envoy was able to cross the river, which means that King Ning has obtained the ships of Yizhou."
"Who is the messenger?"
"Kou Daogu."
"Sure enough, it's him, the news of Mr. Guo's appointment as the commander of the Song army will soon spread, and there is no need to avoid him."
Guo Shifeng understood this truth, and was still a little scared, not afraid of Kou Daogu, but King Ning, calm down for a while, "I'll go see him, please wait here." ”
It was nearly two hours after waiting, the night was dark, Guo Shifeng finally came back, his face was even more drunk, and he obviously drank another meal.
"King Ning must use a plan." Guo Shifeng said.
"Hmm."
"Kou Daogu came to reward the Song army, saying that the Song general made a decision and made a great contribution to King Ning, and the Yizhou army was already frightened, and all of them fled, but left a few ships and sent people to beg for surrender to King Ning. King Ning is about to send troops to attack Jiangling Xi's family, and asks General Song to concentrate on Nanping and Nanping, and next year will join forces to join forces and join forces in the great cause. ”
"Hmm."
"Kou Daogu was not too surprised to see me, and said that he would explain everything to King Ning and allow me to stay with General Song."
"Hmm."
Guo Shifeng took a deep breath, "In short, King Ning is very good at talking, so good that he doesn't look like King Ning." ”
Xu Ji was silent.
"I guess King Ning has already made contact with Hunan and Guangzhou, maybe it is Xiangzhou Thorn Shi Beizhen." Guo Shifeng said.
Xu Ji thought for a while, "I guess it's the Xi family." ”
"Huh? Oh-" Guo Shifeng suddenly said.
Song Zhuzhu happened to come in, Guo Shifeng turned around and said: "The Xi family has probably surrendered, and they want to attack the Song army on the order of King Ning, or cut off the retreat of the Song army." ”
Song Zhuzhu was stunned for a moment, "The Xi family has insisted for so long, and they surrendered when they said they surrendered?" ”
Guo Shifeng said: "The person the Xi family relies on is nothing more than a single relationship with the Sheng family, now that He Rong's army has been defeated and retreated, the Sheng family's attack on Stone City must not be smooth, King Ning is powerful in the world, and the Xi family has no choice but to surrender." ”
"King Ning easily got Jiangling City, and it was even more difficult to deal with." Song Zhuzhu sighed lightly.
Guo Shifeng shook his head, "Not necessarily, King Ning knows the priorities, he doesn't care about Stone City on the surface, and he is reluctant to lead his troops back to defense, but in fact, he regards Wuzhou as the foundation and takes it very seriously." He must give up Jiangling in exchange for the surrender of the Xi family and send troops, and he himself will return to Jiangdong to fight a decisive battle with the Sheng family. ”
Song Zhuzhu nodded and looked at Xu Ji.
Xu Ji said: "What Mr. Guo said is extremely true. ”
"Although the two gentlemen go south and north, if the Xi family sends troops, I will deal with it." Song Zhuzhu left thousands of soldiers, which was very different from the strength of the Xi family, but he was not afraid, and said with a smile: "The Xi family assassinated my father-in-law, if it is sent to the door, it will be better." ”
The three chatted for a while, and Song Zhuzhu said, "King Ning gave me a gift, but this gift must be transferred to Mr. Xu." ”
"I don't need a gift."
"This gift, Mr. Xu definitely needs." Song Zhuzhu and Guo Shifeng said goodbye.
Xu Jizheng wondered, someone came in again, it was actually Ma Qigu, holding a young woman in her hand.
Xu Ji arched his hand and said: "Mrs. Ma, I have already told General Song, there is no need to ......"
Ma Qigu smiled: "If Mr. Xu doesn't want it, I will really take it away." ”
The young woman sobbed, "Childe, it's me." ”
"You...... How are you? Xu Ji was taken aback, the gift that King Ning gave to Song Zhuzhu was actually "Princess Fangde".
"They...... They sent me ......"
"Let's talk slowly." Ma Qigu exited the tent.
Xu Ji asked Colorful to sit down and speak slowly.
Colorful was sent to Xiangyang as a princess, thinking that she would definitely die, but she didn't expect a sudden chaos in the city, He Rongren retreated one after another, and took her with her, not far out of the city, she was too slow, and she abandoned the car and left, Shan Yu was dead, and no one wanted to kill her to give He Rong Pingshan a funeral.
Colorful and unknown, I didn't wait long in the car, and I was taken back to the city and became the "prisoner" of the Ning army, and I was taken to the Ning army camp a few days ago, and I was frightened every day, and suddenly I got on the car, took a boat, and came to the Song army camp, and I was sad in my heart, and I kept crying until I saw Xu Ji, and I cried even more.
"I really didn't expect it, I couldn't have imagined ......"
Xu Ji couldn't have imagined that he made an appointment with Chang Yanzhi to pick up Colorful after the war, but as soon as he faked his death and died in real life, the matter had to be resolved.
"Tell me about the situation in the north." Xu Ji begged, when the two first met, Colorful had said a few words, and he wanted to know more details.
Colorful finally stopped crying, took a deep breath, and was about to speak, Xu Ji suddenly felt that something was wrong, "Wait a minute, I'll call a few people." ”
"I don't want to see anyone else."
"They...... They are good people, and you will rely on them for protection in the future. ”
"Where's Childe?"
"I'm going out tomorrow."
"Take me with you."
Xu Ji smiled: "The place I'm going to is very dangerous, you can't go." ”
Colorful didn't dare to force it, but she wanted to cry again.
Xu Ji hurriedly walked out of the tent, went to find Guo Shifeng first, and then the two went to see Song Zhuzhu and his wife together, "King Ning sent her, probably guessing that I was not dead." But she is not a princess, but a princess's maid, whose name is Colorful. ”
The three of them were taken aback, and Xu Ji said: "Colorful understanding of some of Qin and Liang's situation, although it has happened for a long time, it is somewhat worth referencing. ”
Guo Shifeng said: "Mr. Xu is going to the World Army?" ”
"That's right."
"But how did you get there? In the middle, there are Ning Jun and He Rongren. ”
"Borrowing the road to Yizhou." Xu Ji said with a smile.
