Columns of Qin soldiers marched through the valley, dressed in long shirts, shallow shoes, armed with sharp blades, and dressed in battle armor. Different from the Spring and Autumn Period, the soldiers were not uniformly dressed in black, and their long shirts, bottoms, and rows were mostly bright green, purple, or red; The armor on his body is not the lacquered black of the Chu State, but the original brown of leather, and the ribbons that weave the armor are the same, all of them are red.

The soldiers were freshly dressed and armoured, and the tun chang, who was located on the light cart behind them, was even more colorfully dressed, with long crowns on both boards, short beards, and long swords hanging from their waists. The valley was originally a dangerous place for soldiers, but they looked at the danger and nothing, and their eyes only looked ahead, standing proudly.

The road was trackless, and even if there was a track, it was deliberately destroyed by the Chu army. The track more than ten centimeters wide was stuffed with gravel and mud, but under the cleaning and repair of the servants, the light car, leather car, and heavy car were able to drive freely and go straight to Chudi.

"General, at the end of this water is the Jing country, tomorrow we can go out of the valley and fight with the Jing people." The intermediary does not worship, and the military vehicle does not shine. On the bank of the Wuli River in the valley, Bai Lin, who was already the title of the fifth doctor, saluted the main general Xin Wu on the leather car. Although he was a distant relative of Bai Qi, Bai Qi refused to obey the king's order to die, so he was not happy in the army. Fortunately, it has always been under the command of Xin Wu of Sanchuan County, and he was beheaded a lot when he attacked Wei, which is already a long song. Captains and generals are far away, but they are not out of reach.

"Jing Ren?" Xin Wu's crown and scale armor stand according to the sword. He is one of the main generals of this attack on Chu, in his opinion, Chu and Han Wei are no different, they are both soft persimmons, the problem is not how to fight, but whether to fight. "The scout has been reported, and there are no Jing people outside the valley."

"There are no Jing people?!" Bai Lin also wanted to have a big battle with the Chu army to get some credit, but he didn't expect that there was no Chu army outside the valley.

"Jing people can also fight? Our army is coming, and the Jing people are afraid that they are frightened, and Chengyang is just around the corner. Xin Wu smiled, and then he looked at the flag hanging above his head, and on it was the word 'Meng'. I don't know what General Meng thinks, and he wants Ben to hang his flag. However, since it has been agreed, it will be done according to what was agreed on that day. However, today we must set up camp as soon as possible, and then the sun will rise in the valley. ”

"Yui." The valley is sandwiched by two mountains, and it should have passed quickly, but Xin Wu wanted the army to rise out of the valley after the sun. Although he was puzzled, the military order was like a mountain, and Bai Lin had to bow and shout: "The last general respectfully accepts the order." ”

Bai Lin solemnly saluted, Xin Wu didn't look at it and went away, and when his car drove away, the two two or five hundred lords under his command asked: "Junhou, shall we camp here?" ”

"Yes, the herald set up camp." Bai Lin thought for a moment and coped with it, he was still thinking about why he wanted to rise out of the valley after the sun. Don't you want to wait for the Jing division to assemble, and then defeat it in one fell swoop, so as to reduce the trouble when pulling out Chengyang? Or is there another way of Qin army?

After Bai Lin rose from the white, it is tricky to know the soldiers, and in the war, human life is a mustard, for the sake of the general, for the victory, do everything, anyone can sacrifice. If there is really another way of the Qin army, then this road is the bait to lure the Jing people to attack. Thinking of this, he was shocked in his heart, and only shouted: "Someone! …… The order goes down, and from today onwards, this song will save grain, and each meal can only be half full. ”

The Qin army has conquered Chu. As soon as the Qin army's front army entered the valley, it was discovered by the Chu army scouts equipped with Lu Lijing, and the scouts galloped quickly, and the news quickly spread to the Feixun Station, to Chengyang, and to Yingdu. Yingdu was finally a little chaotic - at the same time as the Qin army's attack on Chu, there was also a fake grain road from Wei to help Qin, and everyone was worried that Qin and Wei would attack Chu in a row, if that was the case, the Qi State in the east might also take the opportunity to send troops. The state of Chu is in danger! Wasn't the Battle of Hanging Sand more than 60 years ago also the joint forces of Han, Wei, Qi and Chu to attack Chu?

In that battle, the Chu army was defeated by the weesha on the shore of the Zhushui in Biyang, and the Fangcheng area was divided by Han, Wei and Qin. This time, if the four countries attack Chu and attack from the east and west, the counties of Huaibei will be lost. The population of Chu is mostly in Huaibei, and if it really loses the counties of Huaishang, is Chu still Chu?

Everyone was worried, and it was rare to open it once, but the ministers who were already uneasy added three points of panic - not for anything else, but for the king who had not recovered from his heart disease and led the army to personally imperial Qin Shi.

"Please think twice...... more than 700 courtiers knelt down, and some even cried.

"Don't say anything, the widow has made up his mind, and he will lead the army to leave the capital tomorrow!" Xiong Yuan was not wearing the leather clothes of the usual dynasty, but the Wei Ben clothes of the state-owned military affairs, and he was wearing a red and piercing eye. "After the widow goes, the eldest son will supervise the country, and everything will be decided by Ling Yin."

"King, King......" Xiong Yuan's plan is not to come back after the expedition, whether he wins or loses. He thought so, how could the ministers not know? It was to cry louder in the court.

"Retreat!" In addition to crying or crying in the court, Xiong Yuan was tired of hearing it, and directly announced his retirement from the court, leaving behind a group of crying courtiers. When the entrance door returned to bed, he ordered no one to enter, and then he reprimanded the others, and pressed his chest to half lie on the low table to gasp. The weather is getting colder and his heart is getting worse, and he already feels that his king is about to end. If you want to die, why not die on the battlefield? In the past, the first monarch and king Wu were about to have a heart disease, and he was also about to send a big life and send troops to fight.

The heart beats suddenly, and every time I beat my chest, it hurts. Thinking that he had endured all his life, but when he was dying, he had to follow the feat of the first monarch and the martial king, Xiong Yuan rarely smiled. He laughed at why he didn't wake up sooner: no matter how much he tolerated and retreated from the Qin State, the Qin State would not let go of the Chu State; He laughed at himself when he was dying and dared to cheer up, like a wanderer who sold his reputation and reputation, brave and sonorous in his mouth, but worried and conscientious in his stocks;

"Wine!" The more I thought about it, the more my chest hurt, but Xiong Yuan didn't care anymore, since he was no longer afraid of death, why not drink some wine.

The wine came, but it was the queen Zhao who came up with the wine. She was dressed up before she came, with plump hair, beautiful eyebrows and snow muscles, a plain Chu dress with a corset, a collar and a curl skirt, fragrant and full. "The concubine pays a visit to the king."

"Pour wine for the widow." In Xiong Yuan's eyes, today's queen seems to be a little more beautiful than Concubine Li in the three palaces. He called her to sit down at his table and asked her to pour herself wine. After drinking, he said: "Love Concubine Shangge, sing a song for the widow." ”

A group of important ministers stood outside the gate of the harem, but there was some singing from the main bed, and everyone couldn't help but look at each other. Huang Xie understood Xiong Yuan's choice, he turned back to the ministers and said, "The king will leave the capital tomorrow, and let the king enjoy it for a day." ”

"Huang Xie, what do you want! The king's heart disease has not healed, how can he go out with his teacher? "Among the ministers, Zhao Huang is the most opposed to Xiong Yuan's expedition, once the king is gone, the government will make Yin have the final say, and he will try his best to put an end to this situation.

"It is the king's intention to go on the expedition, and I also learned it today." Huang Xie looked at Zhao Huang a little ridiculously, these rotten magnates can rely on themselves for everything.

"Humph! What you think, everyone in China knows. Zhao Huang wanted to scold but had no words, so he could only brush his sleeves at Huang Xie. He stepped forward again and said, "I am a left-handed disciple, and I have an urgent matter to call the king. ”

"The king has an order, if you don't discuss it today, please go back to the left." The people at the gate of the road naturally recognized the left disciples, but they didn't let them go.

"What we have told is a major military matter, and if it is too late, the king will bear you a heavy responsibility." Zhao Huang is not good, Zi Mo stepped forward, he is better at words than Zhao Huang, in addition to raising his eyebrows and eyebrows, he also forced the king to blame.

"The king has decreed that the ministers are not allowed to enter, please don't embarrass the villain." The stumbler also recognized Zimo and was not fooled.

"You!" The main bed is close at hand, but you can't go in. The more Zi Mo looked, the more he felt that the man in front of him was not pleasing to the eye, how could the palace be the palace, and the man had the king's order, and he had no choice but to jump his feet.

Outside the road gate, the ministers were in a hurry, and in the East Palace, Xiong Jing, who learned that his father was going to drive his own expedition, rushed to the main bed without hindrance. As soon as he entered the house, he heard his mother's singing:

"The truth of pepper chatting, Fan Yan is rising. His son is huge and has no friends. Pepper chats and, far away and.

The truth of the pepper chat, the wealth of the flowers. The son of Piqi, huge and dutiful. Pepper chats and, far away and ......"

Pepper is Sichuan pepper, and the song praises it for its fruity courtyard, lush and abundant, and the seeds can easily fill a liter. In the words of the poem, it is often used to 'endow, compare, and rejuvenate', and praise the pepper tree is really to praise the man, saying that it is tall and strong. His father was only five short in stature, only one meter seven in height, and his mother sang praises before the expedition, like sweet words between lovers.

The temple maid who was sleeping had already retreated, and Xiong Jing couldn't help but hesitate when she thought of this—even if she wanted to meet her father and ask him not to recruit in person, she had to wait for her mother to finish singing.

"Jing'er." After singing the song, Xiong Yuan, who was a little drunk, shouted. Just now, Concubine Zhao saw her son.

"The child visits his father." Xiong Jing tended to enter the middle court and worship.

"Why don't you drink with your father in the East Hall?" Xiong Yuan looked at his son and said with blame.

"The child saw that the father and the queen mother were in love with each other, and they didn't dare to disturb each other." Xiong Jing looked at her mother, who was smiling.

"Yes." Xiong Yuan burped, looked at his son's head and said with a smile, "Concubine Ai gives wine." ”

Since his illness, his father has not been so happy, and Xiong Yuan, who wanted to persuade his father not to be personally recruited, wanted to speak again and again, but he couldn't say anything at all. As soon as he drank it, his body was stirred by the wine, and just wanted to open his mouth, Xiong Yuan said, "Drink again." ”

After drinking again, Concubine Zhao felt sorry for her son's wine, and the less she poured, the less she poured, but Xiong Jing still felt hot all over her body after drinking, and her stomach was like fire.

"How many feet is Jing'er?" Xiong Yuan inexplicably asked how tall his son was, and Concubine Zhao on one side trembled and sighed.

"The child is five feet old." In the end, it is the Wang family, Xiong Jing's height has exceeded the height of conscription in extreme cases, and he is considered a half-adult.

"Good!" The son is becoming more and more like an adult, Xiong Yuan has a smile on his face, and said: "He will return to Yingdu one day, and don't forget to sacrifice to his father." ”

"Father...... "Very uncompromising, Xiong Jing cried inexplicably, and the tears dripped in the wine jue he was holding, and he didn't realize it." The child asked his father to take back his order and not to take it personally. ”

"As an eldest son, don't be a woman." Xiong Yuan's eyes were also Yingying, but he looked at the sky. "The king died and died immortal, what is the regret?"

With that, he drank again, and muttered to himself. It was not the Book of Poetry, but Chu Ge: "With a long sword, you will not be punished if you take the Qin bow, and your head will not be punished." Sincerity is both brave and martial, and in the end it is strong and cannot be overpowered......"
