The soldier who reported from the army and horse came to Qu Yuan: "Yu Zuotu, the infantry and cavalry armies of the Weihan coalition army have all come out of the sand, captured Dengcheng, and sent troops to our Yancheng Beidu to force the border!" ”

……

Speaking of the coalition troops led by Wei Zheng.

With the death of Tang Wu in battle, 50,000 Chu troops died, surrendered, and fled, and after the battle of Shuishuisand broke the Chu army, since then, eight or nine out of ten counties in Nanyang of Chu have been controlled by Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng's next target was Dengcheng, the last important town in Nanyang County that was controlled by the Chu State.

After repairing for a period of time after the Battle of Chuisha, Wei Zheng led the coalition army to continue southward, attacking the city and pulling out the village all the way along the way, and the army was led by Wei Yi to drive 30,000 iron cavalry straight in, and quickly captured the strategic town of Chu in the Hanshui Valley - Dengcheng with thunderous momentum.

As soon as Dengcheng was broken, Nanyang County of Chu State completely fell, and it was completely occupied by the Three Jin Dynasty.

On this day, Wei Zheng left the Dengcheng garrison and brought a team of cavalry guards, including Wei Yi and others, to the north bank of the Lujiang River in the Hanshui Valley.

At this time, it is early in the morning, the intoxicating spring breeze blows slightly from the river, and the fields along the coast carry the sparkling signs, which is full of fragrance and refreshing.

Wei Zheng enjoyed the scenery of Hanshui along the way, and was reluctant to return to the camp for a while, and after a long time, he had already missed the time to eat, so he simply hunted in the local wild and ate a meal of wild game.

At the beginning of the time, Wei Zheng and the team shot a lot of captures, and Wei Zheng even shot a big wild deer. At this moment, the place where Wei Zheng and the others were located was carrying wisps of floating cooking smoke, and the sun was reflected on the surface of the river, and it seemed that the lingering silk was trembling slightly in the flowing river water, and the waves were golden.

The people under his command were taking care of the game, Wei Zheng, who had nothing to do, came to the bank of the Lujiang River, Wei Yi also followed, looking at the river from afar, Wei Zheng felt it, and couldn't help but whisper: "The whole world is turbid, I am alone, everyone is drunk, I am sober......"

Wei Mi, who was on the side, heard the lord reading this article, and couldn't help but look sideways, and said curiously: "The king seems to respect Mi Yuan quite a lot? ”

The text that Wei Zheng praised just now is from the famous sentence in Qu Yuan's article "The Fisherman", which has been passed down for thousands of years.

When Zhang Yi deceived the king of Chu Huai, he deceived the land of 600 miles of Shang Yu to trick the state of Chu into breaking with Qi, and later Qu Yuan decided to send Qi to rebuild the alliance in order to save the rift with Qi, and the news reached the ears of King Chu Huai, so he thought that the Qin State was unwilling to hand over the land of Shang Yu blamed Qu Yuan for his own actions, and exiled him in anger.

It is said that after Qu Yuan was exiled, he looked haggard, and when a fisherman saw him, he asked: Isn't this the Sanlu doctor, how did he become like this?

Qu Yuan replied to a famous saying that has been passed down through the ages: The whole world is turbid, I am alone, everyone is drunk and I am sober, so I was exiled.

The fisherman said, "Everyone is like that, why don't the doctors go with the flow?"

Qu Yuan said some righteous and stern words, saying that he would rather throw himself into the Xiangjiang River than "be covered by the dust of the world", the fisherman smiled and laughed, and sang and said, "The water of the waves is clear, you can wet my hair; The water of the waves is muddy, and you can wet my feet" and turned away, no longer speaking to him.

For a long time, Wei Zheng, who was standing on the bank of the Lujiang River, said leisurely: "This person is pedantic, although he is pedantic, he is indeed loyal and courageous, and he has a sincere heart for the Chu State. ”

Wei Yi said with admiration: "Thinking about it, I don't know that my king can thank the talent of his opponent here, and treat the enemy like this, the king of this world, and my king can have such a mind for the enemy." It's hard to find in eternity, Wei Yi admires. ”

Wei Zheng laughed, didn't say anything, and then took a look at the beautiful scenery of the rivers and rivers, and couldn't help but move in his heart from the Hanshui River, and couldn't help but chant poems: "Chusai Sanxiang is connected, and Jingmen is connected to nine factions." Outside the world of rivers, there are mountains in the middle of nothing. The county is floating in front of the pool, and the waves are moving far into the sky. Han water is a good wind day, and you stay drunk with the mountain. ”

Wei Yi couldn't help but savor it, re-read it in his heart, and immediately applauded: "Yang sprinkled, only four sentences, the language is in the shape of Xiao, the style is fresh, the artistic conception is beautiful, the distance and the near are reflected in each other, the density is interspersed, and it is used to control the complexity with simplicity, freehand with shape, light brush and light ink but melt into the scene, even if you don't go here, but you can taste this article, you can show the majestic scenery of the mountains and rivers of Chu in front of you, it is really wonderful!" Good poetry, good poetry——! ”

After resuming it for the third time, Wei Yi suddenly exclaimed: "Qi Ye! Myoya! Wei Yi thinks that he is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and he has read a lot of works by literati and scholars throughout the ages, but he has never tasted such novel poems, but with this article is enough to create a new first-class school. ”

As soon as Wei Zheng heard the music, this Wei Yi clapped his ass one round after another, and said: "Wei Yi, flattery can't make a widow promote your official position, hehe." ”

"It's not flattery, it's the words of the last general." Wei Yi said seriously. Between the monarchs and ministers, you are so unhappy with what you say to me, but the rough Meng Ben on the side scratched his head and felt bothered, and couldn't help but interject: "Wei Yi, when it comes to killing the enemy in battle, I, Meng Ben, have never served anyone, but when it comes to rapping and biting the word Wenjue, I will obey you." ”

As soon as these words came out, Wei Zheng and Wei Yi immediately laughed, and it was quite difficult for him to chew the copywriting in front of Meng Ben, who was three big and five thick.

Walking along the bank of the Lujiang River for a while, the barbecue game wafted in, and Meng Ben, who was already hungry and growling, immediately went to bring the roasted wild venison to Wei Zheng.

Everyone was enjoying the game while walking, and Wei Zheng said, "What is the trend of the Chu State?" ”

Wei Yi immediately responded: "Your Majesty, according to the report from the spies, the news that our army broke the Tang Dynasty army in the first battle of Shuisha came back to Yingdu, and the whole country of Chu was in panic, and King Huai of Chu ordered the capital to move south to Changsha, and the calculation time should have left Yingdu. Only Qu, Jing, and Xiang were left to garrison the ancestral land, and the Yingdu was guarded by Zuotu Miyuan. ”

As soon as he talked about the war, Wei Zheng suddenly became very focused, and immediately found a dead wood on the ground and drew a simple map with the Han water level as the core, which made Wei Zheng quite surprised, and he couldn't help nodding secretly in his heart, Wei Yi is really a handsome talent, and the surrounding terrain is already clear in his chest, so he saw it and said: "As far as I know, when our army attacked Dengcheng, Mi Yuan quickly stationed 10,000 defenders in Ji Nan, and stationed 60,000 mixed troops of peasants, officials and slaves in Yancheng, the capital of Chu State, and finally in Yingdu City, There were only 10,000 elite Chu troops and 30,000 subordinate peasants mixed into an army for the final defense. ”
