Chapter 712: Zixi Returns to the Army
(Go to the book.) Seeing that Xiang Yan had already ordered his soldiers and horses to stop attacking the city, the Qin army was also slightly relaxed.
At present, although the king of Chu is in his hands, if these soldiers and horses of Chu under Shouying City do not eat the rat trap at all, the Qin army will have no choice.
Fortunately, Xiang Yan's department has been pinched.
Xuan Ran thought about it again and again, and finally at the suggestion of Gongsun Qi, he sent Chen Zhen, the secretary of the Chu State, to the outside of the city to persuade the Chu army to surrender on his behalf.
Although Chen Zhen was extremely reluctant to be a criminal minister of the Chu State who persuaded the Chu army to surrender, he had to choose to agree for the sake of the King of Chu, who was now unconscious in the hands of the Qin army.
When Xiang Yan saw Chen Zhen, he also asked, "Is the King of Chu okay?" ”
Chen Zhen nodded, signaling that the King of Chu was fine, and then pointed out the situation of the King of Chu now: "When the Qin army captured the palace of the King of Chu, the king personally put on armor and took the lead, but ...... In the end, they were outnumbered, and the Qin army was mistakenly targeted in the thigh, and now he is unconscious, but the Qin army is being treated! ”
Hearing this, Xiang Yan nodded, his mind settled down slightly, but then Xiang Yan's gaze also glanced at Chen Zhen, and immediately asked: "Chen Shangqing came out of Shouying City in a grand manner, isn't it that he has secretly become a lobbyist for the Qin army!" ”
As he spoke, Xiang Yanhu was stunned, his eyes revealed murderous aura, and his left hand had actually grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist.
Seeing this, Chen Zhen guessed that if he responded directly, this rock would definitely rise up within a few breaths and kill himself.
Although Chen Zhen is not afraid of life and death now, he also does not want to die in vain, he also looked at Xiang Yan and asked: "Does General Xiang want to be the eternal sinner surnamed Xiong and Da Chu!" ”
Such a big charge was detained on Xiang Yan's head, so how could he stand it, and at that moment Xiang Yan also restrained his outward murderous aura, and asked Chen Zhen: "What does Shangqing mean by this?" ”
"If there is a reason for the king, who will the country of Chu be entrusted to in these eight hundred years?"
Before Xiang Yan could think about it, Chen Zhen asked and replied to himself: "When the king was the first king, Wu Guo attacked Chu, and in order to vent his personal hatred, Wu Taifu and Wu members had countless branches surnamed Xiong, even if the king was uploaded to others, who could take it?" Dare to pick it up! ”
"The king's son Zhang is only three years old, taking over the throne of Chu at such an age, has General Xiang forgotten the turmoil in the history of Chu State, either the lord and the country are suspicious, or the ministers are in charge, not the blessing of Great Chu!"
"As for the son of the former king...... It is nothing more than the three sons of Shangzhu Shizixi, Ziqi, and Zilu......" Chen Zhen took a step closer, looked at Xiang Yan and asked: "General Xiang said that although these three princes are elderly, the family and the families of the three clans are all controlled by the Qin army in Shouying City. ”
"At this time, if General Xiang wants to insist on attacking the city, even if he wins, the Qin people will be angry and angry, and he will definitely kill the king of Chu and the worship of the Chu royal family.
Xiang Yan is not a reckless person after all, as soon as he heard Chen Zhen say this, he immediately came to his senses, and then held Chen Zhen's hand, and immediately asked: "I don't know if Shangqing has a plan to deal with it!" ”
Chen Zhen nodded and responded: "No matter what this matter is, it is not General Xiang who can call the shots, such a matter of burning himself, it is better for the general to withdraw earlier, at this time, it should be to call Shangzhu Shizixi back to preside over the overall situation!" ”
"But ......" Hearing this, Xiang Yan's face looked very hesitant, and he looked at Chen Zhen and finally said: "But at this time, the Wu army must let the river burst the embankment, so that the river water poured into Pengli Lake and broke the last barrier of the Qin army guarding Jingdi. ”
Chen Zhen said angrily: "Can't General Xiang see this matter, in this situation, even if the army of Great Chu hits Wancheng, this soldier and horse still have to retreat!" ”
Xiang Yan was speechless, in this situation, Xiang Yan consciously put himself on the fire to roast, and after weighing it again and again, Xiang Yan had to choose to be cautious.
On the one hand, he sent people as envoys into Shouying City to negotiate with the Qin army, and on the other hand, he also ordered the retreat army to garrison the area of Shaopo, and sent someone to pass on the situation in Shouying as soon as possible, and sent it to Shangzhu Shizixi, who was cutting down Qin.
Five days later, Zixi received a letter from Xiang Yan, and Zixi was on the original Qinjun Hukou fortress at this time.
However, the current Hukou fortress has been submerged under the surging water of Pengli Lake.
On the second day of burning the mountain rocks to block the river, the water of the river was poured into Peng Li, and the wind and waves of up to three or four major were swallowed into the belly of the Hukou fortress that had blocked the Wu and Chu coalition forces from advancing an inch in an instant.
And the Wu-Chu coalition army also took advantage of the wind and water potential of the river to break through the Hukou fortress held by the Qin army in one fell swoop.
However, they did not directly pursue the victory, but stopped to rest, Zixi and Bo Pi both knew in their hearts that the result of the Qin State's attack army would eventually have an absolute impact on whether to continue to attack Shouying with all their might.
Sure enough, after Zixi received Xiang Yan's letter, he also hesitated.
Although Xiang Yan mentioned in the letter quite vaguely that the king of Chu intended to pass on his location in Zixi, Zixi did not feel the slightest joy.
Hugh wants to say that now this is like the throne of the king of Chu who is a hot potato, and it is no exaggeration to say that the position of the king of Chu on the king is still given up by Zixi.
When Zixi summoned Jingyang, Zhuang Qiao and other generals in front of him, Shouying's situation, Zixi did not hide it at all, and informed the generals of all of them.
When the generals heard this, they were all shocked in their hearts, thinking that this time the Chu State would definitely be in vain!
Sure enough, Zixi also revealed: "This time Shouying's suffering Wang Shang's trouble, it was all negligence, and he should apologize for his crimes, but the king is now in prison, and a certain life is kept for the time being, and after Shouying is recovered and rescued from the king, he will make a decision!" ”
"A certain person is willing to live and die with the Pillar Stone!" The generals also expressed their position.
That Jingyang also asked for an order: "Shangzhushi, the situation of Shouying is urgent, and it is urgent to do so, so we will rectify the soldiers and horses and withdraw back to Chu State!" ”
"Wait!" Zixi stopped Jingyang and informed: "The soldiers and horses are arranged freely, Jingyang, you selected 50,000 soldiers and horses to return to the territory of Chu with a certain one!" ”
"Zhuang Qiao, you lead 50,000 troops, continue to attack Jingdi with the Wu army, and fight until Yingdu!"
The generals were all puzzled by this arrangement, and then Zixi explained: "Although Qin is now a sword and Chu is a fish, if the bone spurs in this fish are gone, Chu will no longer have the confidence to negotiate with Qin!" ”
Immediately, the Chu army was in the process of rectification, and this arrangement was passed on to the Wu army's Bo Pi.
Bo Pi accepted it calmly, and he had some admiration for Zixi's arrangement.
"Returning to the army Shouying, it is all his loyalty, leaving the army to cooperate with Qin, it is all his righteousness, loyalty and righteousness, this Chu State is not a hero!"
After sighing like this, the response of the Chu army also made the original Bo Pi's worries disappear, and then ordered the entire Wu army to attack and attack Shouying.
The Chu general Zhuang Qiao also carried 50,000 soldiers and horses with the Wu army.
On the other hand, Zixi also looked back and looked at Jingdi with reluctance, and after a long time, he finally sighed.
"Return to the army...... Shou Ying! ”
