Chapter 666: The beginning of the struggle between the Western Route Army and the Eastern Route Army

I have to say that the Eastern Road Qi Army led by Tian Tan is really strong in combat, especially when these generals are holding back a wave of anger in their hearts. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

On the same day, Ji Cong, the defender of Qi County, who was defeated by the Shang Water Army, was once again defeated by the East Route Army led by Tian Tan when he retreated to the Huhe River.

Seeing that the general trend had gone, Ji Cong, the guard general of Qi County, also got a boat out of nowhere, fled to the south bank of the Hun River in a hurry, and then went to Xia Cai.

However, the 20,000 Chu troops under his command were killed countless by the Eastern Qi Army led by Tian Tan, and those who were lucky not to die were also forced down the Hu River by the latter.

According to post-war statistics, in this battle, Ji Cong's more than 20,000 troops that he had managed to gather after losing the previous battle were almost killed by Tian Tan's East Road Qi army.

The Qi army ravaged the defeated army of the Chu State, and finally vented the anger accumulated in Qi County and the Shangshui army on them.

In the evening of the same day, probably around the time of Youshi to the time of Xu, the nobles in Qi County, led by the Nanmen clan and who had returned to the Wei State, successively left the West City Gate and moved to the direction of Hao County.

After all, the Shang Shui Army did not forget what Zhao Hongrun instructed - as long as a city was built, it would spread the benevolence of Wei to the local residents, so that those ordinary people would willingly submit to Wei.

During this period, the Shang Shui Army also walked out of the city one after another and confronted the Eastern Route Army in the distance.

Subsequently, after the nobles and people in the city who were willing to follow the Wei army to leave had left the city, the Shang Shui Army handed over Qi County with the Eastern Route Army.

During this period, whether it was Wu Ji or Tian Tan, or the generals under the command of these two generals, they did not have a good face for each other, they all had cold faces, and there were almost no words from beginning to end, and they handed over to Qi County with a very "tacit understanding".

After that, the Shang Shui Army escorted the nobles and common people to Gong County, while the Eastern Route Army was stationed in Qi County and began to prepare for the attack on Fu Lisai.

Although the two sides did not clash in the end, the generals on both sides knew one thing to each other: they had a grudge against each other today!

On August 23, the Shang Shui Army escorted those clans and people and finally arrived in Haoxian County, and after hearing the news, Zhao Hongrun descended to greet him outside the gate of Gongxian County.

After all, the Shang Shui Army is okay to say, but the Qixian clan headed by the Nanmen clan is the first batch of Chu nobles who defected to Wei in this battle, and Zhao Hongrun naturally has to be treated with enough courtesy, so as to attract more Chu nobles to defect to Wei.

Some people may say that like Zhao Hongrun, who widely accepted the commoners and nobles of the Chu State, wouldn't he be afraid to welcome some black sheep to the Wei State as well?

To be honest, Zhao Hongrun is really not afraid.

Because once they arrived in the Wei State, these Chu people could only rely on the Wei people's snort, and they were not afraid of their disobedience at all.

If some of these nobles brought their bad habits from the Chu State to the Wei State, or if they had bad intentions, there would be ways to deal with them at that time.

But then again, the patriarchs of those clans may also be aware of the fate of their families in the future, so when Zhao Hongrun personally went out of the city to greet them, they were all extremely excited, and they were flattered and moved.

Regardless of whether these people are from the bottom of their hearts, and their doubts are just acting, in general, the two sides get along quite well, and they can be called a hit and hate.

After that, Zhao Hongrun proposed to let these clans and ordinary people continue to move north to Xiangcheng.

After all, in a day or two, Zhao Hongrun's Western Route Army will be with Tian Tan's Eastern Route Army in Qi County at the moment, to assist the army of Qi King Lu Xi to break through the blockade of Fu Lisai, and at that time, the large area of land between Fu Lisai, Xuan County, and Qi County will become a battlefield, and unrelated personnel will stay here, which is very dangerous.

As for the task of protecting these people, Zhao Hongrun naturally handed it over to the third battalion of the Yanling Army, and Sun Shuke, the battalion general, was in charge.

Due to the urgency of time, the nobles of the Chu State such as the Nanmen clan, including the common people who moved here from Qi County, did not delay too long in Hao County, and after resting for a while, they hurried to Xiangcheng again.

After that, Zhao Hongrun returned to the outpost in the city with the generals such as the Shang Shui Army, and gathered the generals in the hall of the outpost to prepare to discuss various matters related to the attack on Fu Lisai.

Unexpectedly, before the discussion, Wu Ji hesitated to say that he confronted Tian Tan in Qi County.

“…… Let Your Highness embarrass you, the last general was just angry that the Qi army was too domineering......"

Don't look in front of Tian Tan, Wu Ji seems to be fighting for every inch of land, competing against each other, but in front of Zhao Hongrun, Wu Ji seems to be still the thousand-person general back then.

"Confronting Tian Tan?" Listening to Wu Ji's words, Zhao Hongrun frowned slightly, and asked Wu Ji to tell what happened as it was.

Seeing this, Wu Ji said 1510 about the stalemate between their Shang Shui Army and Tian Tan's Eastern Route Army in Qi County, and did not dare to exaggerate.

However, after Wu Ji finished speaking, the 3,000 generals of the Shangshui Army, who were qualified to participate in the military discussion, seemed to be Xu Jiong and others, and they angrily supplemented the arrogance of the Qi army.

“…… Your Highness, didn't you see the situation at that time, (Wu Ji) General just asked the Qi army to wait outside the city for a while, so that the nobles in the city who were willing to defect to my Great Wei packed up, but those people were good, and they actually scolded immediately, and said that if they didn't open the city gate immediately, they would break the city...... What arrogance that is! ”

"Xu Jiong's words are conclusive! …… Your Highness, even if it is (Wu Ji) General after sacrificing Your Royal Highness's royal flag, those Qi generals are still full of filth, if it weren't for the fact that our army and his Qi army are still allies at this moment, the last general would be eager to lead his troops out of the city......"

……

Listening to several merchants and 3,000 people accusing Tian Tan and his Eastern Route Army of each word, Zhao Hongrun frowned slightly and did not speak.

He knew very well that the words of these generals were certainly exaggerated, after all, as a member of the Shang Shui Army, they would naturally speak for other Shang Shui Jun, but in the final analysis, these generals did not have the courage to tell right and wrong and reverse black and white.

In other words, nine times out of ten, this matter was provoked by the Qi army.

Seeing that Zhao Hongrun frowned and didn't speak, the generals of the Merchants and Navy Army were slightly panicked, after all, in their minds, the prestige of His Royal Highness King Su in front of them was much heavier than that Tiantan.

If His Royal Highness King Su in front of them felt that they were wrong, then they could only admit it.

And at this moment, something happened that surprised the generals of the Yanling Army - Yan Mo, the deputy general of the Yanling Army present, actually spoke for them.

"Your Highness, the last general thinks that the Shang Shui Army has done nothing wrong. …… Although Qi County was the target of the Eastern Route Army, the Shang Shui Army conquered Qi County in advance and handed over the city to the Qi army, even if it would not let the Qi army understand, but it did not owe the Qi army anything. Relatively speaking, the Qi army ignored the friendship of Wei and Qi's alliance and insulted the Shang Shui army first, which is unreasonable! ”

Hearing this, the generals of the Zhushang Navy looked at Yan Mo in shock, and even Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but turn his head to look at the latter.

"Yan Mo, you actually intercede for the Shang Shui Army?" Zhao Hongrun looked at Yan Mo with surprise on his face, and said with a strange expression: "This king remembers that the day before yesterday, you gritted your teeth because the Shang Shui Army took the lead in attacking Qi County. ”

"One thing is one thing." Yan Mo hugged his fist towards Zhao Hongrun, and said: "Your Highness, you have taught me to wait, my Wei army should be a whole, and now the Shang Shui Army is innocently insulted by the Qi army, it is like insulting my Yan Ling army, how can the last general stand by and watch." …… If it is changed to Yan Mo, I am afraid it will be the same. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Wu Ji and the other stunned generals, pouted and said, "As for the Shangshui Army's attack on Qi County, the last general still doesn't think that it was my Yanling Army that lost. …… The Shang Shui Army captured Qi County with the help of the Nanmen Clan, and it is not as good as my Yan Ling Army to conquer Yu County on its own, so it is not capable! ”

This bastard!

I was a little moved!

I guessed that this bastard is hard to move!

The generals of the merchant and water army, who had reacted, once again glared at Yan Mo with indignant eyes.

In this regard, Zhao Hongrun shook his head speechlessly.

However, there is one thing he is very pleased with: Yan Lingjun and Shangshui Army fought privately, but when facing foreign forces, their positions were still very consistent.

"Alright, alright!" Zhao Hongrun clapped his hands to stop the generals of the Yanling Army and the generals of the Shangshui Army from glaring at each other, and said bluntly: "This matter ends here, as Yan Mo said, since it was the Qi army that insulted first, then don't blame the Shangshui army for fighting back." …… As for Yan Lingjun, admit gambling and surrender to lose, if you lose, you will lose, don't make any excuses. ”

Hearing this, the generals of the Yanling Army looked stunned, and the generals of the Shangshui Army were no longer panicked because of the bad relations with the Qi army.

However, Xu Yin, the general of the Fencheng Army, who was watching the play on the sidelines, couldn't help but say at this time: "Your Highness, will there be any disadvantage to fighting with the Qi army?" ”

"What downside can it be?" Zhao Hongrun laughed when he heard this, and said: "Right now, but the Qi State is begging me to be a Great Wei, how dare Tian Tan make a mistake?" …… This king believed Wu Ji, and Wu Ji said that it was Qi Jun who insulted him first, so that's how it happened. Speaking of this, he snorted lightly and said with some displeasure: "I have long heard that the soldiers of the Qi State are arrogant and arrogant with the technical support of the craftsmen of the Lu State...... Hum! I can't get used to this kind of bastard who is even more arrogant than this king! ”

……

The generals in the room looked at Zhao Hongrun with strange expressions, thinking that they could also hear Zhao Hongrun's last sentence, which was really a little subtle.

In a sense, this highness can also be regarded as a person of "true temperament......

Xu Yin smiled bitterly and shook his head, and then, he said with a straight face: "But in this way, Your Highness, you have to be careful, as far as Xu knows, Tian Tan is not a person who swallows his anger." …… In the future, the Western Route Army, the Eastern Route Army and the army of King Lu Xi of Qi converged, and when the time came, Tian Tanbao would mention this matter in front of King Qi. ”

"So what?" Zhao Hongrun snorted lightly and said coldly: "The era of Qi dominating the Central Plains is coming to an end, and even Lu Xi, the king of Qi, is reserving a way back to curry favor with my Great Wei, even if Tian Tan is not convinced, what can he do?" …… Even if he doesn't mention it, I will mention this matter in front of King Qi, but I want to ask King Qi what is the reason why Qi Jun insulted his allies! ”

After that, Zhao Hongrun glanced at the generals in the hall and said in a deep voice: "Tian Tan's arrogance is nothing more than his outstanding achievements. …… Fight for this king! In this battle, the king used military merits to overwhelm Tian Tan and the East Route Army! ”

"Obey!"

The generals of the Zhuyan Ling Army and the Shangshui Army responded with serious faces. (To be continued.) )
