An autumn wind swept the leaves, and the ground was golden again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is the northern country, Linzi Qi Palace, so autumn is a little bit earlier than Xinzheng.

These days, the debate in the Qi Palace has changed from whether to send troops or not to send troops to attack Korea with Wei or to attack Wei.

Due to the arrogance of the Marquis of Wei, the envoys of the Wei State also ran very slowly on the road, so that the proposal of the Marquis of Wei to call on the princes of the world to help the Zhou family and jointly crusade against the Korean attack on Luoyang arrived many days later than the Korean distress letter.

Calling on the world to help the Zhou room, that is Qi Huan Jinwen's move, how can Wei Hou be willing to lag behind? Therefore, it was not only the Qi State that received the letter written by the Marquis of Wei, but all the princes and lords received it, but everyone was hesitating.

In the court of Qi, after receiving the letter from the Marquis of Wei, the faction that was originally opposed to sending troops quickly changed to support sending troops, but it was to fight Korea together with Wei. Their reasons are very sufficient, whether the Son of Heaven was held hostage by the Marquis of Wei, that is just the words of the Han Hou family, no one has received a letter of distress from the Son of Heaven, and South Korea's attack on Luoyang can be said to be seen by everyone's own eyes, so, in order to show that the State of Qi is inheriting the hegemony of Qi Huan, the State of Qi should send troops to attack Xinzheng, if the Wei army is ahead of the Xinzheng Gate, then the State of Qi will have the first step to dominate the world again.

The other faction still hopes to attack the Wei army first, because they believe that Zhou Tianzi was held hostage by Wei Hou, and the reason is very simple, the letter asking the princes of the world to attack the anti-Han was written by Wei Hou, not Zhou Tianzi, obviously Zhou Tianzi's Luoyang was attacked, and he Zhou Tianzi had not asked for help or made a request, why was it proposed by Wei Hou? The Korean army didn't attack Anyi. Moreover, this faction also said that if it is really sent to attack Korea now, it will be in response to the call of Wei, and Qi will be a head behind Wei in the future. Therefore, we must first "rescue" the Son of Heaven and grasp it in our own hands before we can show our righteousness.

The controversy above the court has been going on for many days, and the two factions will not let anyone, and the blushing faces and thick necks of the arguments are some centrists, who also agree with this side today and the other side tomorrow.

However, Qi Hou is not very happy, although he is a prince, Qi Hou does not have so much power to be arbitrary, or rather, Qi Hou himself is still hesitating in his heart, what is going on.

However, on this day when the autumn wind began to be fierce, Qi Hou's steps were extremely brisk.

Because, today he is going to make a decision.

Accompanied by a group of temple people, Qi Hou walked into the hall with his head held high. At this time, in the palace, the ministers who had already arrived began to quarrel again, and the one who lost the momentum the day before went back thought for a night, and now he must regain his position, so the prince has not yet arrived, and the palace is already full of gunsmoke. Perhaps, arguing has become the pleasure of some courtiers.

But the prince still has to worship, so as the Marquis of Qi walked in, the hall gradually quieted down.

After three calls, I heard Qi Hou laugh and said, "Zhuqing don't need to fight anymore, the matter of sending troops has been decided." ”

Speaking of this, Qi Hou paused and looked down with a smile. It seems that Qi Hou is in a good mood.

The ministers were dumbfounded, and they all looked at their princes.

Very satisfied with the performance of the ministers, the Marquis of Qi continued, "The widow has just received an urgent report, the Qin State has sent troops to Guguan, so the widow decided to announce the crime of the Marquis of Wei forcibly abducting the Son of Heaven to the world, and at the same time express my Tian Qi vow to recapture the Son of Heaven, to the determination of the Son of Heaven to return the capital to Luoyang, and call on the princes of the world to respond. ”

"The widow decided to personally lead an army of 150,000 to Xinzheng in the south and fight with the Wei army!"

The sonorous voice of the Marquis of Qi smashed on the top of the hall, and after a while, he heard the ministers reply, "The king is wise!" ”

The monarchs and ministers of Qi State reached a rare consensus, and no one questioned it, because everyone in the world knows that Qin and Wei are mortal enemies, no matter what banner Qin is fighting, as long as Qin is out of the customs, it must fight to the death with Wei, so there is Qin revenge in the west of Wei, and Xinzheng is holding back the troops in the middle, so how many troops can Wei have to deal with the threat from the east?

Although the Wei State is known for its strong soldiers, after all, it is only one of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, the territory is so large, the population is so large, and the two-front battle is already its limit, not to mention the use of troops on three sides? Therefore, the whole Qi State brushed up the idea of the Wei State, and no one doubted that in such a situation, the Qi State would not be able to obtain its own interests.

As a result, the State of Qi, a large country in the East, this ancient and huge state machine, began to rotate at full speed.

At the same time, the emerging power in the north, the Zhao State, had already begun to act, with an army of 80,000 troops leaving Handan, and another 20,000 troops on the way, heading straight to Lingshou City, the capital of Zhongshan State. Taking advantage of the fact that the world is changing rapidly, Zhao Guo also began to solve his own big problem - Zhongshan Kingdom.

The movement of the east and the north will naturally not be transmitted to Xinzheng for a while and a half, so Xinzheng is still in the midst of a fierce war.

Wei Hou made up his mind, and every other day, he attacked the city vigorously, and the number of casualties on both sides rose sharply, but neither side gave up easily.

For example, the more than 10,000 troops of Chen and Cao, after ten days, they were no longer just cheering and wandering, but were also pulled into the front line of the siege. Compared with the Wei army, the combat effectiveness of these armies is more than one grade worse, so they only participated in the battle for one day, and they were disabled, so angry that Wei Hou called the two sons and scolded them for a while, but Zhou Bian saw it in his eyes but did not make a sound.

The South Korean army was even more bitter, and most of the defenders in the city were wounded, so South Korea had no choice but to recruit the nomads and untouchables in the city to fight in the city.

After a simple training, these people were pulled up the city wall, but fortunately, this is to protect the family and the country, so everyone is still working hard. At the same time, the envoys sent to the west and north had already taken advantage of the night to leave the city, and Xinzheng finally couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to send reinforcements, compared with the surrounding border territories, it was obvious that the national capital was more important.

I don't know how long it will take for these reinforcements to arrive.

It's just that those ordinary Han soldiers almost didn't notice that from one day on, Han Hou never appeared on the city tower again, in the fierce battle, everyone killed the real fire, where do you need the monarch to boost morale? Everyone is fighting for their own survival, so no one has noticed how long Han Hou, who claims to be guarding the city, has still disappeared from the city.

Indeed, whether it is an ancient war or a modern war, as long as the sergeants enter the role of war, they no longer remember the general interests of the country, and what supports them to fight is more the need for survival.

Therefore, the Han army no longer needs Han Hou's morale.

But did Han Hou really not appear in the city because of this?

The answer is clearly no, and what many people don't notice is that the South Korean palace is blocked.

If it were an ordinary era, the blockade of the Han Palace would definitely attract the attention of the whole city, but now is the war years, and the most attention of the people in the city every day is naturally that the Wei army is attacking the city again today, how many people have died in the city, whose son's son has sacrificed his life for the country again, and so on.

As one of the few people who know, Gongzi Wu has always been sad, these days, Gongzi Wuyi is guarding the palace without untying his clothes, not leaving the palace for half a step, just because compared to the war outside the city, the things in this palace are more worrying to him.

Han Hou, finally no more.

After vomiting blood for several months, and sticking to the city tower many times in fierce battles, one morning when the battle was in full swing, Han Hou finally couldn't get out of bed.

The large palace was filled with the smell of medicinal herbs, and the maids and physicians fell to their knees, but they were silent, and they did not dare to come out of the atmosphere, but outside the palace, there was a group of sorcerers who were shirtless and painted with rich colors on their chests and backs, dancing the dance of blessings.

In the distance, there was the sound of fighting, which was the cry of the soldiers above and below the city walls.

But in Han Hou's ears, it was intermittent and leisurely, and when he opened his eyes, it was hazy and confused, and if he wanted to move, it seemed to be a luxury. Is this coming to the end of our lives?

Or, at this time, at the critical moment of defending the national capital, is it about to usher in the end of life?

Today's Han Hou Han Ruoshan, who has only been on the throne for a few years, in fact, he can live a few more years, just because the rise of the Zhou family made him feel threatened, but he indecisively missed the best opportunity, so that now not only failed to suppress the Zhou family, but became a sinner who oppressed the royal family, and gave Wei a reason to attack.

This series of things, a series of unsmooth, pressed on Han Hou Ruoshan's body, aggravated his condition, and finally a serious illness came, and he couldn't get out of bed anymore.

After saving up for a long time, Han Hou Ruoshan finally turned his head to the side of the bed, where his son, Gongzi Wu, or more precisely, the Korean prince was sitting.

Looking at the young Gongzi Wu, Han Hou grinned and smiled slightly. Luckily, I still have a son, and no matter what, it's a good son.

So Han Hou spoke, "Wu, the eldest father is going, you don't have to be sad, in the future, Korea will be handed over to you." ”

Hearing the hoarse voice of the eldest father, Gongzi Wu raised his head blankly, but then began to sobble in a low voice again.

It has been several days since the eldest father fell ill, and according to the reminder of the retainer Shen Buxian, Gongzi Wu gave up fighting for the eldest father in the city, but stayed here.

Indeed, in the Zhou Dynasty, which first advocated the rule of filial piety, although the etiquette collapsed, filial piety was still handed down.

Therefore, Gongzi Wu has been guarding here.

At this time, he suddenly heard the eldest father speak, Gongzi Wu hurriedly knelt down and climbed up, and said in a low voice, "Don't talk too much, Father, you will be fine after two more days of rest." ”

Unlike most of the princes who stayed at the bedside of his father, Gongzi Wu's heart was more sincere in praying for his father, and he sincerely hoped that his father would get better. As for ruling Korea, the young Gongzi Takeshi was not ready.

But the truth is cruel after all.

I saw Han Hou make a laughing gesture with all his might, and then a deep voice sounded, "Wu, the matter of the eldest father, the eldest father himself knows." You heard from your eldest father that the ministers of the court, Han Chao is old, and his grandson is wise, and he can be taken seriously. As for the Wei army, presumably the Marquis of Wei also knew that he would not be able to break through Xinzheng, so it was better to bow his head, recognize the status of the overlord of the Marquis of Wei, and apologize to the Zhou family, I believe that after the eldest father goes, neither the Zhou family nor the Marquis of Wei will pursue me in Korea, as for the conditions, try to let them go. ”

This is obviously an explanation of the future, Gongzi Wu straightened his upper body and said hurriedly, "Father, it's good to live and recuperate, why are you talking about this?" ”

However, Han Hou didn't seem to hear it, looked at Fang Liang blankly, and then said, "The widow only hates, let the Zhou boy get his will, and regret that he shouldn't send troops to Luoyang as soon as possible." My son remembers, the climate of the Zhou room has been completed, and in the future, I can only make friends, not evil, and I must not let the Zhou room find the reason for my Korea's guilt again, otherwise, Korea is in danger! Remember, my son! ”

It is said that the bird is dying, and its song is also mourning. Han Hou Ruoshan's words were finally right, but I don't know if that Gongzi Wu heard it, or remembered it, or how long he could remember it.

After listening to the words of the monarch's father, Gongziwu nodded, wiped away his tears, and said, "The child remembers." ”

"My son will never forget. Go and see the city, and leave the father alone. After Han Hou Ruoshan finished speaking, he closed his eyes.

Hearing the sound, Gongzi Wu waved his hand, and suddenly, the maid physician in the hall got up carefully, retreated, and guarded the door of the hall. After looking at the monarch's father again, Gongzi Wu was the last to leave.

Another two days passed, and after the Wei army outside the city had finished a day of intense siege, in the Han palace in the middle of the night, suddenly, several sharp cries sounded.

Han Hou Ruoshan, who inherited his brother's throne, died of illness and was less than fifty years old, and was nicknamed Han Zhuang Hou after his death.

The next day, there were immediately all the soldiers of the city with filial piety cloth, and the white cloth was torn into strips, and erected on the city wall with wooden poles, and suddenly the white spread throughout Xinzheng City, looking at it from a distance, like snowflakes covering the city.

At this time, the early Wei army spies had already sent the news of Xinzhengcheng's change back to the Wei camp army.

"Your Majesty, your subordinates think that there must be changes in Xinzheng City, and the city is full of filial piety, but I am afraid that most of it is Han Hou who has passed away." After hearing the report from the spies, Sima Cuo immediately surrendered his hand to Wei Hou and said.

Indeed, if it is a surrender or a truce, it is only necessary to erect a white flag, and the white flag of the whole city is full, then there is only one possibility, Han Hou died.

Thinking of this, Wei Hou nodded, "It is true that only in this way will the city be full of white flags." The widow decided to immediately send an envoy to Xinzheng City to inquire about the situation and make arrangements. If Han Hou really died, I am afraid that this battle would not be able to continue. ”

Hearing Wei Hou say leisurely, there was a taste of regret, but Sima Cuo stood up, bowed and said, "Your Excellency is wise!" Your Majesty will arrange this. ”

For example, although there are many wars today, some of the most basic rules of conduct are still followed by many people, such as the death of the enemy monarch, the other side will cease fighting, and it is a sign of civilization that reflects respect for the dead. Fortunately, although Wei Hou is arrogant, he still understands this truth, so Sima Cuo breathed a sigh of relief, and it seems that he doesn't need to persuade himself.

After saying that, Sima Cuo got up and walked out.

Unexpectedly, he heard Wei Hou shouting behind him, "Wait! ”

Sima Cuo turned around with a slight surprise.

saw Wei Hou smile and said, "Let Wang Sunman and our envoy go to Xinzheng together." ”
