Only the skeleton of the roast chicken remains, only some scraps of bacon remain, the turbid wine is slightly cool, Han Ruzi drank a cup, nodded and praised: "It is indeed better than the wine in the barracks, is it bought from Mayi City?" ”

The king of the East China Sea said with a smile: "There is no such good wine in Mayi City, this is sent by my mother from the capital, there is not much left, I let you come over to taste it earlier, but you always push back." ”

Since being betrayed by his uncle, the king of the East China Sea is much more honest than before, but after all, he is used to eating and drinking, and he can't stand it, even if he is outside, he must eat and live comfortably, only a little stronger than Cui Teng, and he didn't cry and shout to go home.

Han Ruzi looked at Chai Yue diagonally opposite, "Convince me, this is your last chance, this time it didn't work, don't bother me again in the future." ”

Chai Yue was a little flustered, pressed his hands on his knees, his posture was restrained, and he thought for a while before saying, "Please allow me to start from the beginning." ”

"Hmm." Han Ruzi shook the wine jug in his hand that was about to reach the bottom, and poured himself another glass, "This is the time for you." ”

Chai Yue was even more flustered, and did not speak immediately, but thought for a while, and the East China Sea King, who was sitting on the main seat, smiled and watched.

"That's right, I've been collecting intelligence on the Huns, and I found something very interesting: the three brothers and sisters of the Jin family entered the grassland a month ago and quickly got in touch with the Hun army, but Dongdan Yu was busy dealing with the Chu army and didn't see them."

Han Ruzi drank half of the wine in the cup.

Chai Yue sped up his speech slightly, "A prince of the Xiongnu fell in love with the daughter of the Jin family and asked her for marriage. ”

The King of the East China Sea observed with great interest, Han Ruzi did not show any abnormal behavior, ripped off a chicken bone, and gnawed on the last bit of meat on it.

"The relationship between the Xiongnu royal family is very complicated, and some nobles have raised objections for several reasons, such as suspicion that the Jin family is not sincerely obedient, but a spy sent by the Chu army......"

Han Ruzi drank all the wine in the cup, poured out the last bit of wine in the pot, more than half a cup, you can drink it in two parts, or you can drink it all at once.

Chai Yue hurriedly omitted irrelevant matters, "The Huns are rumored that the daughter of the Jin family has an affair with the tired marquis, and she is no longer a virgin, and they care about this very much. ”

Han Ruzi's wine glass held in the air stopped, and he frowned, "Is Miss Jin ...... Couldn't the Huns find out the body of a virgin? Besides, the Huns can even inherit their father's wives and concubines, so do they care about this kind of thing? ”

Chai Yue said seriously: "The Huns are like this, they can inherit and seize other people's wives and concubines, but they care very much about the chastity of unmarried women, and they are tired of marquis...... It's true...... There is no ......"

"Of course not, I have a lady." Han Ruzi wanted to drink, but put the cup down again before it reached his mouth.

"Well, then the matter is clear, the Xiongnu prince wants to marry the daughter of the Jin family, but the words are terrifying, he feels that he has been humiliated, or he may feel that the Jin family has been humiliated, so he voluntarily stays, in order to seek revenge on you, he has the most soldiers, almost three thousand, and the other Huns also obey his orders."

Han Ruzi looked at the King of the East China Sea and said in confusion, "Can you believe it?" Someone would seek revenge on me for something like this. ”

The King of the East China Sea looked pensive, and then nodded, "I believe, you forgot, Chai Xiaohou and Cui Lao Er had a bad relationship, it was because of this young lady of the Jin family, and as a result, neither of them got her." The so-called red face and troubled water are talking about Miss Jin's family, she may not have done anything, but the men who are related to her will be unlucky, and your relationship with her is too deep. ”

The king of the East China Sea patted twice on the heart, although he had seen Jin Chuiduo, he was very impressed by her beauty, and secretly felt pity for her to take refuge in the grassland, but the two had never had a relationship, and he could stay away from the trouble.

"What about the Kim family? Is there no justification? Han Ruzi asked Chai Yue, almost forgetting the glass of wine in front of him.

"I don't know about this, with the status of the Jin family among the Huns, it is estimated that no one listens to what he says, in short, this prince named Zaheyan publicly claimed that he would capture or kill the Hou alive to restore the reputation of the daughter of the Jin family."

Han Ruzi had nothing to say, picked up the wine glass and drank it all, Chai Yue hurriedly said: "So I hope that the Tired Hou will be used as a bait, and it has nothing to do with Chai Xiaohou's death, it is entirely because the Tired Hou can attract Prince Zaheyan." ”

Han Ruzi put down his wine glass, "All this may also be a lie made up by you, just to deceive my trust." ”

Chai Yue was stunned, "I won't ......"

Han Ruzi raised his hand to interrupt Chai Yue, "I'll give you a little more time to talk about your plan." ”

"There is a broken iron city more than 800 miles to the west, do you know?"

Han Ruzi nodded, the broken iron city is north of the Great Wall, more than 200 miles away from the nearest pass, it is one of the forward strongholds to resist the Huns, it is said that it is extremely cold there, and the iron is frozen like ice, and it will be broken when it is knocked, which is of course an exaggeration, but this city is named because of this.

When it came to the military situation, Chai Yue was much more comfortable, his hands quickly fiddled with the cups and plates on the table, and introduced: "The Broken Iron City is two hundred and sixteen miles away from Shenxiong Pass, and it can be reached in one day with fast horses and whips, and there are many valleys in the middle, which can ambush a large number of cavalry. In the southeast and southwest, there are two cities of Guanhe and quicksand, and the three cities are horns of each other. There are 12 pavilion barriers outside the city, which go deeper into the grassland for more than 100 miles, and can give early warning. ”

Han Ruzi didn't speak, and the king of the East China Sea spoke first, "You said the broken iron city so well, even if the Huns want to take revenge, they won't attack it, right?" After all, the cavalry that this prince could use was only more than 10,000 at most. ”

Chai Yue explained: "The three cities of Broken Iron, Guanhe and Quicksand are isolated in the north, and it is not easy to supply, since the Xiongnu split into two parts, the garrisons of the three cities have been reduced year by year, and now only the Broken Iron City is still guarded by soldiers, and the other two cities and most of the pavilions have been abandoned. However, it doesn't take long to give up, and it can be reused with a little repair. ”

"Assuming that the Huns are fooled and 10,000 cavalry go to attack the Broken Iron City, how much does the Chu army need?" Han Ruzi asked.

"At least 30,000 people, the more the merrier, as long as the tired marquis nods, I will go to the general to ask for troops."

"Can the general listen to you?"

"It's not me who the general hears, it's military exploits, 300,000 troops gathered outside the Saiwai, not a single battle was fought, it's really difficult to explain to the court, if you can annihilate Zaheshan's army, it's enough for the general to hold out until next year."

Han Ruzi was silent, but Chai Yue was an anxious child, waited for a while, and urged: "Without further ado, there are still two months before the winter, if Zaheshan wants to attack the city and take revenge, it can only be carried out in these two months, once the winter is on, the forage is scarce, and the Huns must be scattered and stationed, not to mention ten thousand, even a thousand people are difficult to see." At the end of winter and spring, the Hun army returned, and the plan to lure the enemy was useless. ”

"Okay, let me think about it."

Chai Yue was disappointed, but he had nothing to say, he got up and prepared to leave, and he was a little unrelenting, pointing to the wine glass on the table that represented Shenxiong Guan and said, "The importance of this pass, don't I need to say more, right?" ”

Han Ruzi looked up at Chai Yue and didn't say a word, this concubine of the Chai family may have some real skills, but he is really not very good at choosing occasions to speak.

Chai Yue withdrew from the tent, and the king of the East China Sea pointed to the "Shenxiong Pass" and said: "This is six hundred miles away from the capital, there is a direct road, there is something in the capital, you can go back in two or three days, if it is fast, it is possible in one day." ”

Han Ruzi shook his head, "Counting on something to happen in Beijing, just in case, even if something really happens, I still need to pass two checkpoints to return to Beijing from Shenxiong Pass, and any one of them is enough to block me." ”

"Hehe, I'm just saying it, if it's really that easy, Han Xing won't allow you to garrison Broken Iron City."

"Why did you change your mind? Before it gets dark, you advised me to stay in Mayi City. ”

"At this time and then, I was interested in Chai Yue, I thought he was a guy with no future, after listening to him for a while, I felt that he still had some ability, and the plan he set was likely to be successful, anyway, it could be completed before winter, why not the military merits in hand? This is considered the first merit, and the reward from the imperial court is enough for you to support your subordinates for two or three years. ”

Han Ruzi actually had a plan in his heart, but he was still moved by this sentence, it is not easy to feed an army of more than 1,000 people, Cui Xiaojun has done his best to provide money and supplies, but he is still stretched.

"Well, I'll have to think about it."

"You think about it, but the ugly words are ahead, I won't go with you, the person the Hun prince hates is not me, and I don't want to make meritorious contributions, Mayi City is very good, I'd better stay with the general and mess around."

Han Ruzi laughed and asked, "What's the matter with Cui Teng?" It was fine a few days ago, but today it's like crazy. ”

"That's his temper, and when you ask about today's things tomorrow, he won't admit a word. But I've heard that in order to be able to return to Beijing, many people paid bribes to the general, and Han Xing, a Hun who didn't see it, really made a fortune. ”

"No matter how bold Han Xing is, he doesn't dare to let Cui Teng return to Beijing, Cui Teng is actually a hostage left here by the Cui family."

The King of the East Sea sneered, "Yes, he is a hostage of the Cui family. ”

The king of the East China Sea was jealous, and his relationship with the Cui family was broken, and he was no longer qualified to be a hostage.

Han Ruzi didn't comfort him, pointed to the "Shenxiong Pass" and said, "This area is defended by the Northern Army, right?" ”

"That's right, so when you arrive at Broken Iron City, you need to watch out for not only the Huns, but also the champion Hou."

"You think I'm going to Broken Iron City?"

"Hey, I don't know you yet? As soon as you talk about the comfortable life of Mayi City, you are listless, as soon as you mention that you want to be the bait for the siege and annihilation of the Huns, your ears begin to move, if I am Chai Yue, I will not convince you at all, and wait patiently for you to send it to the door. ”

Han Ruzi smiled, and had to admit that the King of the East China Sea had indeed found out what was on his mind.

The King of the East China Sea asked solemnly: "You just want to make meritorious contributions, don't you want to save the beauty?" ”

"If I have different intentions, why should I let the Jin family go back to the grassland?"

"That's right."

The two were silent for a while, Han Ruzi was thinking about something, and the King of the East China Sea was observing from the side, and suddenly his heart moved, "I know what you're thinking, tell you, even if Han Xing agrees, we won't agree." ”

"What was I thinking?" Han Ruzi asked with a smile.

The King of the East China Sea was even more convinced, and stood up, "You want to take the Xungui Battalion to the Broken Iron City and give you a guarantee." Impossible, impossible, Han Xing will not let go, there are so many noble children, he can't afford any of them. ”

Han Ruzi said coldly: "The general can't afford it, so I will ask the imperial court for help, the Xungui camp really needs to be put in order." ”
