Chapter 1083: Born of Sorrow

After Cai moved to Xia Cai, the situation was not stable, because it was against the interests of the doctors and the people, so Cai Zhaohou gradually lost popularity, Cai Zhaohou twenty-eight years, that is, three years ago, the husband was strong, Cai Zhaohou was ready to go to Wu to meet him, Cai Guo doctors were afraid that he would move the capital again, to the sparsely populated Jiangnan, so they designed an assassination. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoOn the way through which Cai Zhaohou must pass, he sent a thief named Li to lead the crowd to assassinate Cai Zhaohou. After the matter was completed, the doctors of Cai Guo killed and stole profits to escape the punishment of Wu Guo.

The husband was busy with Zhang Luo's Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, and ignored this matter, as long as Cai Guo continued to bow his head and be a vassal, so Cai Guo's doctors supported Cai Zhaohou's son Gongzi Shuo to succeed to the throne, which was for Cai Hou Shuo.

Now three years have passed, and with the coming of age of Cai Houshuo, he has gradually regained control of the court, and led the people of Cai to build a city in this strange land, plowing in spring and summer. However, the tree was calm and the wind did not stop, and just when Cai Guo gradually gained a foothold in Huai, their backer Wu Guo collapsed with a bang!

Cai people also served in the Wu army, in the Huaibei Lingbi battle, after the battle of Qixia, there were Cai people fled back one after another, Wu in the Central Plains most of the army, Fucha army lost more than half, the Huai River line of Wu soldiers have also evacuated these news came back, so the entire Cai country is uneasy.

They were not worried about the Zhao army, but more worried about the Chu state, because the Chu army had already begun to attack Qunshu as early as June and July. So Cai Hou and the doctors discussed what the future of Cai Guo should be, and this said that they should continue to stay on Wu Guo's ship, and asked Wu Guo to move them to Jiangnan, away from the Central Plains. The other said that he would reattach himself to the state of Chu and sever relations with the state of Wu.

For the former, most doctors flatly refused, and every time they moved, it meant that they would lose their land, cities, and people, and the Cai Kingdom would become smaller and smaller. As for the latter, Cai Hou himself has no bottom, Cai Guo has betrayed Chu State twice, and has completely made enemies with Chu State. Now that the state of Wu has been newly defeated, presumably after the death of King Zhao of Chu, the order of the state of Chu, Yin and Sima, will probably not tolerate the state of Cai anymore, and for a while, Hou Cai remembered the death of the country forty years ago, and he couldn't help but despair.

While they were arguing, a large army had already descended from the east!

"Wu Jun? Chu Jun? ”

However, when Cai Hou and his ministers looked at the low city, they saw that the army of more than 10,000 people showed their banner.

They are Zhao Jun!

After a short time, a silk book was tied to an arrow and shot into the city, Cai Hou and the doctors opened it to take a look, but saw that it was written: "In the fourteenth year of the king, in May, the first monarch Zhao Wuhou and Cai Zhaohou met in Gao Weasel to discuss the attack on Chu. If the state of Chu harms Cai's actions, it will be attacked. There is this alliance of Chongqing, the gods are killed, and their teachers are falling, and there is no country of Kexi! ”

The alliance of Gao Weasel is more than ten years ago, the Jin Kingdom and the princes to discuss the conquest of Chu State of a great alliance, but also so far the largest alliance, the alliance of Cai Hou Shuo's father Cai Zhaohou attended, but also with the Wei Kingdom because of the competition for the order of a little unpleasant, the covenant has become an empty document, no practical effect. But there was one thing that Cai Hou didn't know, so he asked the others: "Zhao Wuhou? Who's this? ”

A doctor who is more concerned about the affairs of the Central Plains explained: "This Zhao Wuhou is Zhao Wuzi, and after the Zhao family replaced the Jin State as a prince, he was also posthumously honored as the Marquis of Wu......"

"I see!" Cai Hou suddenly realized, continued to look down, but saw that it was indeed written: "Today, Zhao inherited the unity of the Jin State, and also inherited the oath of the Jin State, the widow heard that the Chu people wanted to invade Cai, so he made the foreign ministers and others lead troops to rescue, and I hope that Cai Jun will remember the alliance of Gao Weasel and can be protected by the Zhao State......

"It turned out to be an ally of the Central Plains!" Cai Hou was immediately overjoyed, no matter how far-fetched this statement was, seeing that the walls of Xia Cai City, which had just been established for a few years, were low, and he couldn't stop the army outside, he simply gritted his teeth and took all the doctors out of the city, and thanked Dade for Zhao Jun's timely arrival, shouting "Cai Guo has been abandoned in Huaiyi for many years, and I hope that the heavenly soldiers will last for a long time!" ”

A few days after the arrival of the Zhao army, the people of Chu also came, but this time, Cai Houshuo could sit on the head of the city and watch the angry appearance of the Chu army returning from the difficulty, and watching the phoenix flag of the Chu State slowly turn around under the deterrence of more than 10,000 Zhao troops, Cai Houshuo laughed. He almost forgot that the fate of Cai Guo was just from the hands of Wu and Chu and fell into the bowl of Zhao Guo......

……

Watching the Chu army slowly withdraw, Mu Xia, the general of the Zhao army, breathed a sigh of relief.

The number of the Chu army and the Zhao army is quite large, although the Zhao people are not afraid, but if they can not fight, they will not fight, after all, after nearly a month of running around in the two Huai, Zhao is a little tired.

He immediately asked Zhao Jia, who was sweeping in front of the army and shouting to the Chu general Wang Sunsheng to demonstrate, and asked him to send some rangers to follow the Chu army far away, beware of them dangling a shot and killing them again.

"Wang Sunsheng knows that the Zhao army is strong, and he will not dare to take risks." Zhao Jia was very disdainful of Wang Sunsheng, a "traitor", but he still obeyed Mu Xia's orders and sent scouts to cruise, after all, the land of Huaishang was a place that Zhao Jun had never arrived at before, and he was not familiar with the place, so he had to be careful everywhere.

It was not until it was determined that the Chu army had withdrawn to a hundred miles away that Mu Xia relented and let the army be stationed in various towns of Cai State to eat, waiting for Zhao Hou's new order.

During this period, Mucha also carried a pot of wine, took the initiative to visit Zhao Jia's camp, and humbly asked him for a lesson.

"Although Xia is the prince of the prince, he is still a rough man, and he has some doubts about the king sending a large army to enter the Cai State, and he does not hesitate to embarrass the Chu State for this, Ziwei is the leader of the younger generation of the Gong clan, the Zhao family's Qianliju, can you solve my doubts?"

Zhao Jia didn't dare to slack off on this humble and studious general, and hurriedly put down the scroll and hugged his fists and said: "Jia, a yellow-haired son, how dare you speculate about the king's intentions at will, but you just have a little opinion of your own, and I hope that the generals don't want to laugh." ”

He spread out a rough map of the Lianghuai region and said to Mu Xia: "General, please see, this is the Huai River, this is the good way, this is Zhongli, this is Xia Cai, from east to west, connected into a line, the south of this line is Huainan and Jiangbei, the king does not intend to seize it, the north of this line is Huaibei, and the king has sent troops to attack." ”

Mu Xia nodded, "Yes, Ziwei means that if you get these three yi, you can control Huaishui?" ”

"Yes!" Zhao Jia said: "Good road is Huaidong, Zhongli is Huaizhong, Xia Cai is Huaixi, Huaidong is suitable for Shandao to be stationed in order to choke Hangou and Surabaya; Huaizhong is suitable to be stationed in Zhongli to choke sand water and transport water. As for the key point of Huaixi, it is naturally in Xia Cai! ”

"Fucha's vision is good, and he moved Cai Guo here, and Cai controlled Huaiying, and took Jiangtuo with him, which was the key hub of the north and the shield of the southeast. The south leads Jing and Ruzhili, the north connects Liang and Song, the flat road is only seven hundred, the west hits Chen, Xu, the water and land are not more than a thousand miles, there are rivers and lakes outside, there are Huai and Yingzhigu inside, Shaobi is ten thousand acres of fertile fields, Qunshu, Yingliu tribute, Wuyue is really a place to fight, as long as it is guarded here, Chu State will not want to enter Jiangbei wantonly, let alone spy on Si Shang......"

This is the understanding that Zhao Jia got after coming west with the army, and has been pondering Zhao Wuxian's strategic intentions.

At the same time, Mu Xia couldn't help but sigh, Zhao Jia and Liu Xiayue, this new generation of generals who had been contaminated with knowledge in the school palace, and then grew up at the grassroots level of the army, really made Mu Xia feel frightened, and only felt that if he didn't make progress, they would come from behind, how not to let him have a sense of crisis......

The king once taught Yu, Mu, Tian and other generals who were the first to follow him, saying that both people and countries must remember that "born in sorrow and die in peace".

So Mu Xia thought to himself: "Although I have also been urged by the king to read some poetry books and know a lot of words, it is a pity that my knowledge is still not enough, and those who have entered the Linzhang School Palace and those who have not entered the Linzhang School Palace, the difference is so big." I'm over forty years old, and it's useless to learn any more, but my children and grandchildren can't do that anymore. When I go back this time, I will definitely ask the king to let my unsuccessful son make an exception to enter the Linzhang School Palace, not asking him to have much interest, but only to increase his knowledge......"

……

Not mentioning that the Zhao army stopped in Cai State, only saying that on the other side, Wang Sunsheng saw that the Zhao army had taken the lead in him, and he did not attack in anger, but silently withdrew his troops.

But halfway through, he asked the lieutenant general to take the army back to Ying and VI to consolidate the defenses there, and he himself drove to Shenyi with his guards in the starry night.

This attack on Wu was divided into two routes, north and south, Wang Sunsheng was the south road, and Sima Ziqi personally led the two armies to attack Chen, and at this moment Chen Hou had been forced to surrender, and the army was stationed in Shenyi, waiting for news from Wang Sunsheng's side.

At this moment, seeing Wang Sunsheng coming over in person, Sima Ziqi was shocked at first, and thought that Wang Sunsheng had accidentally been defeated, but after asking, he learned that he had taken all Ying, Liu, and Qunshu, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and patted this nephew on the shoulder again and again, saying that Zixi really didn't mistake him.

Wang Sunsheng didn't care about this compliment, he asked Zi Qi to retreat left and right, and then reported to him: "Although Huainan Zhuyi has been captured, the Zhao army has entered the Cai State to prevent his nephew from destroying Cai. ”

"Zhao State ......" Sima Ziqi's face was slightly gloomy, since the Battle of Chengpu came, the Jin State and the Chu State have been facing each other for more than a hundred years, and now that the Jin State is finished from the inside, the Chu State could have breathed a sigh of relief, but unfortunately it was the more aggressive Zhao State who stood up from the corpse of the Jin State.

This time the state of Chu was able to recover the eastern border, or entrusted Zhao Wuxian to attract the blessing of the main force of the husband, I hoped that Zhao and Wu could lose both, but who expected that in the end it ended with a great victory for Zhao and a great defeat for Wu, and Zhao Wuxian also ignored the tradition that the overlords of the Jin State had no interest in Huainan in the past, and sent troops to fight for the Cai State......

Sima Ziqi was worried about how to face this new competitor, but Wang Sun Sheng was even more anxious, so he suddenly bowed down and said, "Uncle, if you can't get Cai, you can't be Huainan." The tired division of the Zhao army, people's minds are returned, and they must not be able to hold on for a long time. My nephew dared to ask my uncle to give me 30,000 soldiers, and when Mu Xia and Zhao Jiashuai returned to the north in late autumn, they would return at dusk, and then seize Cai and sweep Jianghuai!
