Section 7 Do you want to be a messenger?
Facing Xiong Zilan's suspicion, Bai Hui smiled:
"By the way, that's the expression, obviously you're going to be in trouble. I will help you solve this trouble, and you will not only not lose your military rations, but you will also have merit. ”
Xiong Zilan asked: "How can you be meritorious?" ”
Bai Hui laughed: "Brother Zilan, you sent someone to send a letter to the King of Chu, saying that the old King of Chu wants you to live or die." If we want to live, we will send him back intact, and if he wants to die, we will send him back and let him die of illness on the way back. There are only two conditions, the first is that you tell me where the coalition army will store grain, and the second is that you ask the king of Chu to send troops to Wei to find trouble. ”
"I, my Chu State and Wei State have prepared an alliance and will no longer fight."
"You don't have to really fight, just put on a posture, take 100,000 soldiers and horses to the border of Wei to move, and find an excuse to say that you are ready to fight. It doesn't matter if you don't fight, as long as you put on a posture to be friendly with the Qin State and make enemies with the Wei State. ”
"Me!" Xiong Zilan was a little moved.
King Chu Huai listened to his advice before he was thrown in the Qin State, and now that the new king has ascended the throne, the new king is Xiong Zilan's brother. The sentence of the young man in front of him who wants to live or die completely hits his pain point, and it is also the pain point of the two brothers.
I believe that if you don't cooperate, the loss of your military rations will be a big deal.
The state of Qin will also come to King Chu Huai according to what he wants, if the living King Chu Huai returns to China, will he hate himself, will he kick the new king off the throne.
"One more city. How is it? Bai Hui added another chip.
"Two, two, two cities." Xiong Zilan made an offer.
A month ago, Qin Chu fought a big war, Qin Sheng, killed 50,000 enemies, robbed three cities, this time to get back two and then kill King Chu Huai, he believed that the old nobles and the new king would definitely support him.
"Okay, if the negotiation is successful, these grains will not be bad for you to transport back, however, some slaves who transport grain ......" Bai Hui didn't think about how to call it a comrade-in-arms or a soldier.
Without waiting for Bai Hui to think about it, Xiong Zilan hurriedly said: "These grains and slaves are all given to you, I don't know what Brother Tai is called?" ”
"Ji's surname, Bai's family, and a single name. The authentic old Qin people, Mengxi, and Bai clansmen of the Bai clan are ashamed that their titles are a bit lower than their sons. ”
Bai Qi gave a look to the person beside him, and the hundred generals beside him immediately said: "The military marquis is now the princess." ”
Doctor Gong, the seventh rank of Qin, is the last rank of the Gao Jue in Qin, but he can also be called a Gao Jue, he can be regarded as a person with status and status, which is calculated according to Bai Hui's original title and the addition of this battle exploits.
After all, a low-ranking soldier is not qualified to negotiate with a son.
Sure enough, after hearing Bai Hui's title, Xiong Zilan took out all her tokens, letter seals, jade rings, jade plates, and jade pendants and put them in front of Bai Hui.
Gifts?
Bai Hui was a little dizzy.
But I heard Xiong Zilan say: "I am willing to write two letters, one will stop the rest of the grain and grass first, and the other will be sent by the doctor to see my brother Wang in person, this matter can be done, but you must promise not to hurt me." ”
"We won't hurt you at all, just go to the Chu State!" Bai Hui hesitated.
Bai Qi motioned for Bai Hui to come out with him.
Outside the tent, Bai Qi stared at Bai Hui: "Go, you have to go." ”
Bai Hui patted his head: "I don't have Zhang Yi's eloquence, if I can't talk about it, I will be sent to death." ”
"Yes, it has to go. This matter is related to the fortune of my Great Qin country, and I will die even if I die. ”
In Bai Qi's opinion, Bai Hui's subordinates Qin soldiers were demoralized with just a few words, and Xiong Zilan was soft with a few words, and his eloquence was no worse than Zhang Yi.
And if it is really as Bai Hui said, even if it is not said that the Chu army will attack Wei, but the Chu army will no longer help the coalition army, it will be beneficial to the Qin State.
For the Qin State, he is not afraid of death, but he is also afraid of being a messenger.
Bai Hui secretly scolded that he had harmed himself and threatened Xiong Zilan was one thing, and it was one thing to say that there must be enough conditions to move the King of Chu.
It is also planned that no changes are fast.
According to Bai Qi's original plan, kill the Chu army to save the prisoners and burn grain and grass, and then find the empty place of the Han army to attack continuously.
But right now, the grain and grass are not burned, and the Chu army is still alive.
Bai Qi could only retreat to the original Qin army camp and set up a defensive formation. and asked Bai Hui to go to Chu as a lobbyist to help Qin solve an enemy first.
Bai Qi said to Bai Hui: "There is no precedent for the nations to kill the envoy, you don't have to worry. I have Xiong Zilan in my hand, and neither Qi, Han, Wei, or Chu dare to attack me easily. ”
Hearing Bai Qi's words, Bai Huixin said that it seemed that it was safer to be a messenger.
"Brother, we can make the decisions about the two cities in private, how to explain when we go back to Xianyang?"
Bai Qi thought in his heart, with the attack of the allied forces of Qi, Han, and Wei, Bai Qi knew in his heart that if he was defeated, it would not be a matter of two cities, and he was afraid that he would cut the land, and this cut would be more than a dozen cities, or even dozens of cities.
Bai Qi said: "I will send someone to report to my king, you immediately set off in full gear, and there will be no delay on the road." If this is done, you and my brother may be able to relieve the siege of Qin by the combined forces of Qi, Han, and Wei. ”
"Brother, is it possible to be promoted if you have merit?"
"Let's go." Bai Hui, who was too lazy, said again.
Bai Hui had no choice but to set off immediately.
found a beautiful and luxurious scribe's uniform from Xiong Zilan's clothes, selected fifty elite soldiers, and then had a gorgeous carriage and a box of gold, and went south to the capital of Chu.
If you don't go, you can't go, thousands of pairs of eyes are staring at you, if you don't go this time, it is estimated that you will have no face in front of Qin Jun in the future.
Bai Qi deserves to be a brother, and the four people around him who can fight the most have sent three to Bai Hui.
Seven days later.
Bai Hui had just arrived in the suburbs of the capital of Chu State, and he had traveled nearly 100 miles a day, almost dying of exhaustion.
In Hangu Pass.
The allied forces of Qi, Han, and Wei suddenly stopped tackling key problems.
Such a move by the coalition forces allowed the Qin soldiers to breathe, and although they didn't understand what was happening, it was indeed a good thing.
Wei Ran got the news that the reinforcements of the Qi army stopped halfway, because the promised military rations of the Chu army were stopped, and not a single grain of grain was delivered to the Wei State.
"Report, urgent war report."
"Express it."
Two tired soldiers who almost fainted were carried in, compared to Bai Hui's hard work of riding a boat for four days in a carriage and traveling hundreds of miles a day, these two people crossed mountains and mountains, and had to avoid the hard work of the Wei army rushing to Hangu Pass, this is the real hardship.
The two of them couldn't even say a word, just pointed to the bamboo slips in their backpacks.
Wei Ran personally took off his backpack and ordered loudly: "Give the broth and send it to recuperate immediately." ”
After opening the bamboo slip and reading only one sentence, Wei Ran ordered loudly again: "Give wine." ”
Bamboo slips are letters written in white, it should not be said to be written, they are carved on bamboo slips with a knife, and there is more than one bamboo slip, it is half a box of bamboo slips.
