Xu Ji guessed correctly, on the territory of the Jizhou Army, the only person who was so bold was the invited cavalry of the He Rong Division.

The Jizhou soldiers in the camp are all sentinels and patrolmen along the way, the total number is only a little more than a thousand, and the cavalry outside the camp is galloping vertically and horizontally, whistling endlessly, and it is impossible to see how many at night, but it must be far more than a thousand.

A Jizhou general ran over, his face was both panicked and ashamed, and he arched his hand and said: "Wangwu Wang Haihan, these people from the He Rong Department are used to being arrogant, and they don't understand the rules after entering the fortress, they besiege the camp without authorization, and it is not a military order from above." ”

"It doesn't matter. It's just that I have never had anything to do with He Rongbu, let alone a grudge, so why did they come to see me? ”

"It is said that the Jin army has already sent He Rong's cavalry to attack the eastern capital, and this side is also in a hurry, and wants to take King Wu to the eastern capital......"

Xu Ji said with a smile: "I understand, General Lao asked Lord He Rongbu to enter the camp, I will talk to them face-to-face, if I can make sense, it would be great, if not, I will go with them, so as not to embarrass the general." ”

The general said angrily: "Since I have been ordered to guard King Wu here, I should be loyal to my duties and never retreat without fear of strength, please rest assured that King Wu will not take anyone away from this camp!" ”

The general retired, and Tian Jiang said: "He will still invite Lord He Rongbu into the camp, and if the negotiation is not proper, he will still obediently hand over King Wu." ”

Xu Ji smiled: "Why is it difficult to be strong? He has his own unavoidable suffering. ”

"Hey, Xu Gongzi is really generous."

"No, it's not generosity, I just believe in my own mouth."

Tian Jiang also smiled, "Can I stay?" See the eloquence of Xu Gongzi after not being the king. ”

"Please."

"But there's a problem."

"What's the trouble?"

"Although Xu Gongzi has removed the name of the king, the people outside do not recognize it, and the soldiers of Jizhou are still called 'King Wu', and He Rongbu regards Xu Gongzi as the real king and wants to take him hostage. With such an identity, Xu Gongzi is not easy to speak. I have an idea, but I just want to grieve Xu Gongzi a little. ”

Xu Ji smiled: "This is a good idea, but if I am really taken away by He Rongbu, please don't fight with me." ”

"Xu Gongzi is confident, and I also believe in Xu Gongzi."

Xu Ji ordered people to add more wine and food, there were still only two pairs of chopsticks, Tian Jiang sat in the main seat, and he stood on the side.

Half an hour later, the Jizhou generals finally attracted Lord He Rongbu.

There are many names of the nobles of the He Rong Department, and the Central Plains are all referred to as "adults", and they also like this title, and the number of adults has increased over the years, and it is often difficult to distinguish between dignity and inferiority.

There were quite a few people who came, seven of them came into the tent, and there was a lot of shouting outside, and apparently there were many more.

The seven men were all dressed in similar attire, wearing greasy leather jackets, felt hats, hats full of feathers of varying numbers, bows and arrows on their backs, and more than one sword in their belts.

The seven of them stood at will, regardless of priority, neither bowing nor greeting, looking around unceremoniously, and finally their eyes fell on the Tian Jiang.

Although Tian Jian was born in Xianglu, he has never been afraid of anyone, and his face is majestic, that is, Xu Ji sits with him, and those who see it for the first time usually think that Tian Jiang is King Wu.

The seven of them conversed in their own language, not knowing what they were saying.

Xu Ji took a step forward and arched his hand: "Who can say our words?" ”

A man in his thirties took two steps forward, with a few more feathers on his hat and a thicker beard than anyone else, and said bluntly, "Who are you?" Let King Wu stand up and talk to me. ”

Xu Ji shook his head, "In Shimoda Craftsman, King Wu's guard, and also a military advisor, King Wu will not talk to you until you ask you about your intentions." ”

The seven people on the other side laughed, and the leader patted the knife on his waist, "If you want to know what it means, ask it." ”

Xu Ji also had a knife, so without saying a word, he directly pulled the knife out of the sheath and said sharply: "Ask the knife with a knife, what's so difficult about this?" ”

The seven were startled, and drew their swords one after another, there were no other guards in the tent, and they had the advantage of seven against two.

The leader turned his head and said a few words to his companions, and then said to Wu Wangjunshi: "If we really want to use a knife, we don't have to enter the account." You, a military advisor, can't speak, and it's a bit dangerous for King Wu to use you. You have wine and meat here, why don't you invite us to sit down and talk while we eat? ”

Xu Ji put away the knife, "Didn't you ask Your Excellency what to call it?" ”

"My name is He Rongpingshan, and I am the king of Zuoshenwei, you can call me 'Lord Shan'."

He Rongbu has hundreds of kings, and the king of Zuo Shenwei is not well-known, Xu Ji arched his hand and said, "Lord Shan, please take a seat." ”

He Rong Pingshan looked left and right, walked past Xu Ji, sat directly opposite "King Wu", and did not use chopsticks, pulled out the dagger from his arms, inserted a piece of meat into his mouth, and took another sip of wine, swallowed the meat, but the wine spit out, turned his head to his companion and said: "Nanren can cook, can't make wine, take ours." ”

One person stepped forward, untied a skin bag from behind his waist, and sent it to He Rongpingshan.

He Rongpingshan poured two bowls of wine and said to "King Wu": "Do you dare to taste it?" ”

Tian Jiang didn't squeak, took the wine and drank it all, put down the bowl, and his expression remained unchanged.

He Rong Pingshan laughed, drank a bowl of wine, and poured it full, "Good amount of wine, let's continue." ”

Tian Jiang picked up the bowl and drank it again.

Two of you, one bowl and one bowl of me, a bag of wine was quickly drunk, and another person stepped forward to deliver the skin, He Rong Pingshan put away the disrespect on his face, stared at "King Wu", just poured wine, drank wine, and also stopped talking.

After the second bag was drunk, the third bag was delivered, and the Jizhou general entered the account, and saw that King Wu was standing aside, but the unknown guard was fighting with Lord He Rongbu, and he couldn't help but be deeply surprised.

Xu Ji shook his head lightly at him, and one of He Rongpingshan's companions reprimanded: "You are not needed here, go out and wait." ”

The Jizhou general's face was ugly, but he didn't dare to fight back, and withdrew from the tent in disdain.

When the fifth bag of wine was delivered, He Rong Pingshan pushed it away, he could still drink it, but he felt that it was no longer necessary, "King Wu has a good amount of wine, and they all say that you are a weak scholar, not like it." ”

Tian Jiang still didn't squeak, and Xu Ji said on the side: "Rumors are often untrue, in order to belittle King Wu, anything can be made up." ”

"Why don't you speak? Look down on me? There are 30,000 soldiers in my department, how many are there in King Wu? ”

Tian Jiang said coldly: "He Rongbu Shan Yu is here, you can talk to me, you, find him." ”

He Rongpingshan glanced at Xu Ji, "Your military advisor?" Talking counts? ”

Tian Jiang turned his head and said, "King Wu obeys me, what I say and promise, King Wu recognizes." ”

He Rong Pingshan hesitated for a moment, then got up and said, "If Shan Yu is here, you are not worthy to talk to him, you have to be the emperor of the Central Plains." ”

Having said that, he still turned to Xu Ji, "There's nothing to talk about, we heard that King Wu was kicked out of the Eastern Capital and was homeless, so we decided to do a good deed and send King Wu back to the Eastern Capital." Let's go, don't delay. ”

"Thank you, Yama-sama."

"It's nothing, I heard that the eastern capital is the most prosperous place in the world, we wanted to take a look, and when the time comes, the eastern capital will belong to the king of Wu, and the property and population in the city will belong to us, and everyone will be happy."

"Helping the needy, Shanda is worthy of the name of Rongwei."

He Rong Pingshan thought that the "military advisor" would bargain, but he didn't expect to be flattered as soon as he opened his mouth, and his heart was happy, and the prestige of "King Wu" spelling wine was also reduced a lot.

"Everyone is neighbors, the Central Plains is in chaos, of course He Rongbu can't watch the excitement from the side. In the future, if the kings of the Central Plains have any more disputes, they will find us to uphold justice. ”

Xu Ji said with a smile: "Of course, He Rongbu is grateful, especially He Rongbu is too busy to take care of himself and want to help his neighbors, which is even more admirable." ”

"We just love to help...... Hey, what are you talking about taking care of yourself? I understand the meaning of this sentence, are you saying that we also have civil strife in the Horong Ministry? ”

Xu Ji smiled and said nothing.

He Rong Pingshan finally understood that the "military advisor" was mocking himself, and his face changed immediately, "The people of the Central Plains will only quarrel, let's say it clearly, King Wu is willing to go with us, we are still neighbors and friends, we will send it all the way to the Eastern Capital, so as not to let him suffer." We didn't want to go, so we had to drag it out, and it was more ugly at that time. ”

Xu Ji knew in his heart that the reason why He Rong's cavalry was willing to negotiate was not because he respected King Wu, but because he was unwilling to tear his face with the Jizhou soldiers.

"Shansama doesn't believe me?"

"Which one?"

"I'm too busy to take care of myself."

He Rong Pingshan smiled at his companions: "King Wu's military advisor is really interesting, I even thought that he knew the situation of He Rongbu better than us. ”

The six companions laughed, and one said, "Why don't you let him tell me if it's snowing or raining on the grassland?" Tell me if my wife gave birth to a boy or a girl? ”

Another said, "If he could tell men and women, would you still let him live?" ”

Everyone laughed, Xu Ji also laughed, smiled, and when the other party's laughter stopped for a while, he said: "The He Rong cavalry in the Jin army has already gone south, right?" ”

He Rongpingshan said disdainfully: "Everyone knows something, why are you mentioning it?" ”

Xu Ji continued: "The next thing is my guess, do you hear me guess right: He Rong's cavalry went south, but the general was a general of the Jin Dynasty, named Tan Wuwu. General Tan wanted to force his way across the river and go straight to the eastern capital, but He Rong's cavalry was disgusted with boating, preferring to attack Mengjin and cross the river from the bridge. Right? ”

He Rong Pingshan frowned slightly, "Mengjin is not far from here, and I will know about the matter over there as soon as I inquire about it." ”

"I also know that the He Rong cavalry over there failed to capture Mengjin, and sent people to ask for help, the mountain lord is not only for support, but also for merit, you came to invite King Wu, the first door you want to knock on is not the eastern capital, but Mengjin, is it right?"

He Rong Pingshan's face changed slightly, because the "military advisor" guessed correctly, the messenger of Mengjin He Rong's cavalry would not be leaked soon.

"Mengjin City, it's easy to capture it, please go with King Wu, just to reduce casualties. He Rongbu was originally a family, advancing and retreating together, and there was no such thing as asking for help. ”

"Okay, I'm wrong." Xu Ji smiled, "I'm just wondering, the cavalry is good at field battles, and the Jin army will attack the city, why does the King of Jin only send one general to take charge of the army, but he refuses to send the soldiers of his headquarters to help?" And if I guessed correctly, the king of Jin not only did not go south, but led his troops north to return to Jinyang. ”

"So what?"

"Shanda only cares about helping his neighbors, but he didn't expect that his neighbors may not appreciate it, and he will bite back? He Rongbu had previously approached Jinyang, leaving the King of Jin almost homeless. The King of Jin escaped from the Eastern Capital and ran all the way north, just to keep Jinyang, he couldn't be grateful to He Rongbu. ”

"We have turned our enemies into friends, and we have lent him tens of thousands of cavalry ......"

"When the King of Jin returned to the north, he didn't bring a single He Rong cavalry."

"Then let him go back to Jinyang, and we can capture the Eastern Capital ourselves."

"The mountain people seem to regard the King of Jin as their father Shepherd Shen Zhi, Shen Mushou can endure, and is willing to make friends with He Rongbu, and now the King of Jin - Jianwei will be repaid. He Rong's army is heading south, how many troops are left in the north? Who does Shan Yu and the old and weak women and children rely on for protection? Xu Ji looked at one of He Rongpingshan's companions, "Mrs. Zun is waiting to give birth, and your Excellency is only worried about giving birth to a boy and a girl?" ”

The expressions of the seven people changed, and He Rongpingshan said angrily: "If the Shen family dares to take advantage of the fire to rob, He Rongbu will definitely set foot in Jinyang and leave no one alive!" There is no need to say much about the military advisor, in short, King Wu wants to go with us, no matter where he goes. ”
