Chapter 260: The Wind Rises in the South

Seeing that the musician who had built the building had killed himself, Qu Yuan sighed: "It's really not worth it for such a loyal man to be used in such a shameless scene!" ”

Tian Wen on the side listened to Qu Yuan's exclamation, the expression on his face changed, and he immediately ordered Feng Tan next to him: "Take these two people down for a thick burial, and treat their families well!" ”

Then, Tian Wen said to Qu Yuan: "Lord Zuo, I think today's incident is a little strange. The Qin people are not familiar with the life in Taoqiu, so how can they know the whereabouts of their mother? Moreover, the Qin people did not have a boat master, and they were able to reach this small island of Heze, and they must have been helped by Ziyan. And what he did was not in line with the conditions that our two countries had negotiated with him before! Why don't I take the opportunity to attack Ziyan?"

However, before Tian Wen's words were finished, he was interrupted by Qu Yuan: "Childe's words are wrong! Taoqiu Junziyan fully complied with the agreement with my Chu State and Qi State: lend the Heze Palace to Qi State, and let your Qi State arrange it on the entire island. As for the failure of your assassination operation today, it can't be said that you yourself acted ineffectively, and you can't blame others for it, right? If the prince has the heart to make trouble, he can act alone, and my Chu State will never interfere in this matter! ”

Yin Zhaoyang, the commander of the state of Chu on the side, did not say anything about Qu Yuan's statement, obviously agreeing that Qu Yuan's statement represented the attitude of the state of Chu. In this way, Qi Xiangtian Ying naturally did not take the opportunity to make trouble, so he could only be separated from the Chu people.

"Damn! Such a good opportunity, but also escaped by that Ziyan! After returning to Taoqiu City, Tian Wen slammed an expensive glass of water on the ground and roared angrily.

Afterwards, Tian Wen questioned Feng Tan again: "Didn't you say that the plan against Tao Qiu was an unassailable plan? Why was Tao Qiu able to get out of this desperate situation? ”

Feng Tan bowed his body, bowed his head to Tian Wen and said, "Childe, it is up to people to make things happen, and it is up to heaven to make things happen." This Ziyan can have such a great reputation among the nations, and he was still underestimated before the next. I didn't expect that in the midst of the hundred secrets, I neglected my wife's return to China to visit relatives, which is the sin of my subordinates! ”

He glanced up and saw that Tian Wen was still expressionless, and he didn't mean to let Feng Tan go, Feng Tan also had to come up with a plan that he had buried deep in for a long time and was not yet very mature: "Childe, in fact, if you really want to deal with Ziyan, there is no need to rely on your own strength alone, but you can completely rely on the internal strength of the external Chu State and the Song State!" Your Majesty thinks that we ought to do so... In the end, Feng Tan's voice gradually lowered, and Tian Wen nodded from time to time.

On the second day, the guards of the Qin State were packed up early in the morning, and Dai Yan, who received the news of the breakdown of the alliance last night, was also waiting outside Taoqiu City early in the morning. He was going to personally see Zhang Yi back to China, and handed over Tian Ying's wife and niece from the hands of Qin.

After spending one night in Qin's mansion, this Lady Le's condition now looks a little haggard. When Qin Jun handed him over, when Mrs. Le saw Dai Yan, it was like seeing a savior, and she was extremely excited to give Dai Yan a deep salute: "Niece Le Xuan has seen Uncle Ziyan!" ”

This Le Xuan is also in her twenties now, not much younger than Dai Yan, and Dai Yan is also very embarrassed to see a woman about his age calling him uncle. He hastened to her feet, and took her son with the servants of the city.

Then he said to Zhang Yi: "Thank you Qin Xiang for being magnanimous and not causing harm to his niece!" ”

Zhang Yi laughed self-deprecatingly: "Gong Cao, I, the Qin State, am also a member of Zhuxia, but I am not a stubborn barbarian!" I don't have much grudge against my niece, so why do you want to harm him? I'm just doing this for self-preservation! Although he knew that the one who revealed Le Xuan's whereabouts was Dai Yan in front of him. Zhang Yi also had to say such a thing to Dai Yan in front of Le Xuan, and took all the responsibility for kidnapping Le Xuan.

Because this approach can allow Dai Yan to put aside Qi Guo's possible investigation, and at the same time, it can also make Song Guoguo shut up and make him unable to make trouble in this matter!

After Le Xuan completely retreated, Zhang Yi and Dai Yan walked in front of the team, and Zhang Yi said to Dai Yan: "Gong Cao, no matter what, thanks to you this time, you can make the three-phase alliance have a beginning and an end below, and Zhang Yi has inherited this favor!" If he has the opportunity one day, he will be rewarded! ”

After speaking, Zhang Yi bowed to Dai Yanshen, and then got into the carriage of the Qin State and left!

Receiving such a promise from Qin Xiang can be regarded as a surprise. After sending the Qin delegation away, Dai Yan immediately rushed back to Taoqiu and personally sent Le Xuan to the pavilion where Tian Ying was. Tian Ying didn't know what to think, as if she didn't guess that Dai Yan had revealed Le Xuan's whereabouts, she communicated with Dai Yan very kindly, and said a lot of words of thanks.

Subsequently, the prime minister of Qi also began to pack his things, and on the day of Qin's departure, he also began to pack his bags, and returned to Qi with his wife and son.

The only Chu envoy who remained seemed to be extremely interested in the prosperous scene of Taoqiu. They stayed in Taoqiu for three whole days, saw all kinds of advanced things in Taoqiu, and purchased a lot of things from Taoqiu before leaving Taoqiu and returning to China.

At the same time, the state of Chu raised the tomb, and a traveler in a hurry came. After entering Yangling, this person went straight to the gate of the Yi Mansion, reported his identity, and asked to meet Yangling Jun.

Today's Yanglingjun, named Yangwu, is the eldest son of the old Yanglingjun who was killed by Dai Yan in Fengyi, and is more than Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, tall and big, with a pair of bright eyes. After inheriting the throne of Yangling Jun for more than ten years, he has been on the throne for a long time, coupled with his strong body, he has an indescribable majesty.

Seeing Feng Chen, who claimed to be the envoy of Jing Guo Jun of Qi State, Yang Wu asked Feng Tan with a lazy look: "Xue Gong is in Qi State, and his lower body is in Chu State. Qi and Chu are incompatible, which is already an ancient precept. Xue Gong sent Mr. here, but what is the matter? ”

Looking at the tone of this Yang Ling Jun, the reception of this envoy of the feudal monarch of the Qi State was purely a routine matter, and he did not feel that he could have anything to do with Qi Xiang as the feudal monarch of the Chu State, so he did not hide his attitude at all.

Feng Tan didn't care about Yangwu's arrogant attitude at all, but said with a chuckle: "The Qi State and the Chu State are not related, it is true. However, Xue Gong and Yangling Jun have a basis for cooperation, and my family lord is here specifically for Yangling Jun, and do something that is very beneficial to Yangling Jun! ”

Yang Wu stared at Feng Tan and asked, "Then what is Gong Xue going to do that is good for me?" "It seems that as long as this Qi country traveler is a little dissatisfied with him, he will drive him out of Yangling!

Feng Tan pointed to the northeast and lightly spit out two words: "Taoqiu!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Yang Lingjun's face immediately changed greatly, first he became ecstatic, and then he seemed to remember something, and his face became ugly again. He hesitated for a moment, and when he didn't know what to say, Feng Tan spoke again: "The lord of my family has a grudge against the Taoqiu gentleman, and the world knows it. And the previous generation of Yanglingjun died in the Song Kingdom, although it was a suicide in shame, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that if he hadn't been defeated in the hands of Ziyan, he would never have gotten to that point, and the first generation of Yanglingjun can be said to have died indirectly in the hands of Ziyan! Taoqiu Junziyan and you can be said to have a grudge against your father, if you don't take revenge, how can you raise your head in front of your clansmen?

Yang Ling Jun and my family lord have common enemies, and the enemies of enemies are friends. As long as you and I join forces to attack Taoqiu, Yanglingjun will attack Taoqiu's forces in Xiangyi and Fuli behind the Song Kingdom, and my lord will use the power of the Le family in the Song Kingdom to restrain him, plus Xue Gong will personally take action, and the three parties will unite together to strangle Taoqiujun, what does Yanglingjun think? ”

After listening to Feng Tan's plan, Yang Wu was a little stunned at first, and then laughed, he said directly to Feng Tan: "If Xue Gong wants to defeat Zi Yan just by relying on these, then Mr. please go back, I won't agree to Xue Gong's request!" ”

Feng Tan was extremely puzzled by this: "Why did Yang Lingjun say this, this plan is good for you?" I can't think of why you should turn down this plan! ”

Yang Wu simply spread out and said: "Mr. Feng can be sent to me by Xue Gong, I think you should also be very valued by Xue Gong!" So when Xue Gong wanted to deal with a person, didn't he weigh how powerful that person's strength was?

My father died in the Song Kingdom, and indirectly died at the hands of Ziyan, but I thought about revenge day and night! Since I inherited the throne, I have not dared to slack off day and night, training soldiers and horses in Yangling, just in the hope of accumulating strength for future revenge. When Ziyan led the Taoqiu merchant to Xiangyi to open a mine, I was happy for a long time, because he came to my door, and this is my good opportunity for revenge!

When Ziyan first came to Taoqiu, I didn't directly attack him, because I knew very well that he had the cavalry of the princess of Zhao who had broken the Qin army, and although the elite soldiers of my Yangling were not bad, they should not be the opponents of the cavalry of Zhao State. Therefore, I chose Ziyan to leave, and when Taoqiu's mines in Xiangyi were all opened, I attacked them and robbed Taoqiu's wealth in Xiangyi. In the past, in order to train my troops, I would often lead my clansmen to the villages around Xiangyi for training, and I knew very well the strength of Xiangyi, they could not be the opponent of my Raising Tomb Marksman!

I gathered 4,000 well-trained soldiers, including all 600 marksmen from my Yanglingyi, to attack the Xiangyi coal mine with me. However, in that battle, our troops were met with several sophisticated crossbows, including bed crossbows that could shoot hundreds of paces away, and ballistae that could shoot stones at a distance, and our soldiers were held back from the very beginning of the attack! When it came time to engage them in close combat, the Song Min, who was originally weak, actually had a well-made crossbow in his hand, which caused great damage to our army. When I rushed to the front of the mine and tried to fight them in close combat, the men who guarded the mine were able to fight our troops with a spear or an iron sword.

It was this well-prepared attack that left nothing but nearly a thousand casualties in the Xiangyi coal mine. The loss here is nearly half of the archers in my tomb! After this battle, I Yangling no longer dared to invade Xiangyi, and I was even more worried day and night that Xiangyi would come to my Yangling to take revenge! Mr. Feng thought about it, Tao Qiu was rich enough to equip all the soldiers of Xiangyi with standard crossbows and iron weapons, and they also had bed crossbows and ballistas with great lethality. Not to mention that Taoqiu Jun still has Fengyi with the same strength as Xiangyi, and the population of Taoqiu City is several times that of Fengyi, if they exert all their strength, where can we fight? ”

After listening to Yang Lingjun's narration, Feng Chen also began to re-examine the strength of the opponent he wanted to deal with. He suddenly discovers that he has actually made a very fatal mistake: he has always looked at the current enemy with the same eyes as before!

Dai Yan, as the king of Taoqiu, has governed Taoqiu in the past few years, and the power of Taoqiu City and himself has undergone earth-shaking changes. And he still looks at Tao Qiujun with the power of the original Tao Qiu doctor! Underestimating the strength of his opponent, it is no wonder that his previous brilliant plan in Taoqiu was overjoyed and fell short!

However, he quickly calmed himself down, and said to Yang Lingjun: "Yang Lingjun's meaning, I understand it below. You think that the enemy we want to deal with is too strong, and our own strength is too weak, so we have no hope of defeating Ziyan, Feng Tan can understand this! However, I can bring you even more powerful allies, and we can surely defeat Ziyan and the Taoqiu in his hands! ”
