Chapter 602: I, Liu Ji, Qi Hou

Liu Bei was very moved by Fa Zheng's trust, and then came to Chen Cang under the protection of Wei Yan and the five hundred Chu army.

Directly informing Liu Ji that "Liu Bei is still alive and has already surrendered to Chu" is likely to trigger a backlash from Liu Ji, but ...... Liu Bei was confident that if he went in person, he would be able to persuade Liu Ji.

The number of five hundred is not only within the scope of Liu Ji's peace of mind, but also not without the power to fight back......

Of course, don't think about artillery or anything, it would be nice to be able to sneak some grenades into it and still in the experimental stage!

The reason why the "grenade" will be in the experimental stage is also because the Chu State has not studied the original grenade too much from the beginning—that is, an ordinary projectile that is detonated with black powder after ignition.

In fact, this kind of grenade is also of limited use, and it is completely accumulated in the current true qi crossbow and artillery system of the Chu army.

Now what Chu has put into the experiment is to fill high explosives, rely on fragments for damage, and pull the bolt to detonate, which is equivalent to the Mills-style grenade that only appeared during World War I.

A grenade that can really play a role on the battlefield of full-fledged thermal weapons!

It is precisely because of the five hundred people brought by Wei Yan, among which one hundred grassroots generals have several of these grenades with them, so they directly come to the door to "tease" Liu Ji, and they are not very worried about safety, at least it should not be difficult to break out of the encirclement.

No matter how you say it, seeing Liu Bei directly is a kind of "flirting" for Liu Ji!

In Fa Zheng's view, Liu Bei's only "chance of winning" should be to infiltrate Chen Cang, and then rebel against other local guards.

At this time, Deng Zhi had not told Liu Ji the truth, but only said that General Wei Yan of Hanzhong had arrived with five hundred Chu troops.

In the military city of Chen Cang, Liu Ji did not doubt the intentions of the Chu State, after all, the Chu State was his best choice now, and it was only five hundred people.

And after arriving in Chencang, Wei Yan fearlessly only brought a dozen personal guards into the city, and the other Chu troops were just stationed outside the city!

Liu Ji was also at the gate of the city in person to greet Wei Yan.

Although Wei Yan is not as at the peak of history, he is the Taishou of Hanzhong and the top 3 of the Shu Han military, but now he is at least a division commander, and he is also the nominal commander in charge of the road of "Hanzhong Attack on Guanzhong".

Status in the state of Chu......

There are still TOP30 in the military!

And Liu Ji is now nominally the Marquis of Qi, but he only has 20,000 Qi troops in his hands, and he is still a rootless tree, so he is stuck in an important position, so he has some capital to be sold at a price.

Liu Ji met Wei Yan very enthusiastically, but Wei Yan was not very enthusiastic about him, and just said: "I've seen General Liu, let's go into the city quickly!" ”

Hearing that Wei Yan was still called "General Liu", Liu Ji paused in a little disappointment.

Originally, he expected that the State of Chu would recognize the position of "Marquis of Qi".

It's not that he hopes that he can still be named "Marquis of Qi" in the State of Chu, but only when the State of Chu now recognizes the position of "Marquis of Qi", can it be regarded as recognizing the role he can play.

However, in the past few days, Wei Yan and Liu Bei have become more familiar, and they have more resistance to this "rebel".

It's not because of how much Liu Bei slandered him, on the contrary, when Liu Bei and Wei Yan mentioned Liu Ji, they always said how good this kid is, how much like himself, and where is he braver than himself...... After that, it's a long sigh.

This made Wei Yan a little disgusted by Liu Ji's approach.

Of course, it is just "a little familiar" and "a little disgusted", and Wei Yan will not abolish the public because of personal gain.

Liu Ji didn't dare to have any opinions about Wei Yan because of this matter, and still invited him to the banquet.

Just halfway through the lead, Liu Ji looked back awkwardly......

"What's wrong with General Liu?" Wei Yan frowned and asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that I feel the prestige of the Chu State." Liu Jigan said with a smile.

Just now, Liu Ji always felt that among Wei Yan's personal guards, some people were staring at him, and he had a premonition when he saw it, but when he looked back, he didn't find anything unusual, and he didn't feel murderous or anything like that, so Liu Ji didn't care too much.

However, when he came to the front hall and was about to invite Wei Yan to the banquet, Wei Yan grabbed Liu Ji's arm, who shrank significantly, but failed to do so.

Although Liu Ji is known for his "bravery", he is mainly in terms of temperament and force...... Because he is still young, even if he is in a high position, there is still a thin line between him and the general Jinyu.

And although Wei Yan is young and strong, he can now be regarded as an old golden jade, but the god will be far away.

Liu Ji's personal soldiers around him were also obviously on guard, and naturally Wei Yan's personal soldiers were also mobilized, and they were also faintly tightened.

"Hmph." A soldier of Wei Yan, who did not move, let out an indignant snort at this time.

After hearing this voice, Liu Ji's body was obviously stunned, and then he pretended to be natural and said, "What are you doing?" Ben will ...... Ben Hou! I want to invite Master Wei to the banquet! ”

That's right, the personal guard who just spoke out was naturally Liu Bei who "pretended to be a personal guard".

For Liu Bei, this is already a pediatric ......

And there are professionals from the Chu State, Liu Bei is now subtly different from before from his height to his shoulder width, to his face shape and facial features, and with the half-covered helmet, he is not recognizable from his appearance at all.

Even because of the specially designed height boots, the posture when walking will be very different from usual!

The reason why Liu Bei was angry just now was more because he saw Liu Ji and was actually panicked because Wei Yan caught him......

Whether to throw off Wei Yan and turn his face directly to avoid being held hostage, or to invite Wei Yan to the table as usual, this is a matter of "choice", and it is not wrong to choose, but he was stunned for a moment, but Liu Bei was very dissatisfied with him.

Wei Yan wasn't sure if Liu Ji had found out, but he just felt ...... Liu Ji began to like to emphasize more and more, "I am Qi Hou".

Even when Wei Yan asked about Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang and tested Liu Ji's attitude, Liu Ji not only emphasized how Guan Yu was arrogant and how he was forced like pouring bitter water with Deng Zhi, but said with a big grin, "I am the Marquis of Qi", "Troublesome ministers and thieves, not worth a damn", "All of them died outside Chen Cang"......

However, Wei Yan always felt that he didn't look like he was arrogant, but like a ...... Who are you fighting against!

Wei Yan, who was already three points sure in his heart that Liu Ji had already sensed something, also took the initiative to say at this time: "Regarding the matter of Qi Hou's surrender to Chu, my Da Chu naturally welcomes it very much, but there are still some details that need to be confirmed by Qi Hou." ”

Wei Yan was addressing the Marquis of Qi at this time, but ...... Liu Ji always felt that what he was talking about was not himself!

And Liu Ji is only "intentionally" voting for Chu now, and the two sides have not yet skimmed the eight words, why is there only "details that need to be confirmed"?

However, Liu Ji was not too surprised to quiet down at this time, and only said to Wei Yan after a while: "Master Wei is tired of traveling in the boat, you might as well rest early tonight, Ben Hou ...... Be quiet for yourself. ”

said that he was quiet, but Wei Yan and his own personal soldiers were all driven out, but one of Wei Yan's personal guards did not leave, and Liu Ji didn't see it......
