Chapter 099: Dai Guo VS Zhou Guo

Li Mu took only enough men and horses to escort to the border town in a low-key manner, and the remaining large number of soldiers and horses made a detour to the fortress of Zhou.

They were stationed around the fortress and did nothing but throw a few bandages into the fortress from time to time.

But the walls were blown down, and they didn't attack.

"Why don't we go in?"

Zhu Rui's younger brother was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

Zhu Rui, who led the troops, pulled the bow away and put it down, and put it down, his heart was not much calmer, but he always remembered the words of the regent when he came, and comforted his younger brother, "Zhou Guo is frightened now, I don't know that we don't have food and grass, if we know, we will definitely not sit still, did we beat them at that time?" We only have 30,000 people now. ”

"Rob!" Zhu Feng hurriedly stomped his feet and leaned over to analyze with his brother, "Although it is not the season to harvest grain, there are more than a dozen villages outside the border fortress, and we only rob things and don't kill people, which is already much more merciful than when Zhou Guo robbed us!" When you enter the Zhou Kingdom, where are you afraid of running out of food and grass? ”

He wanted to fight, looking at the people who were trembling with fear, and wanted to immediately rob them of their things and occupy their city.

Zhu Rui put down the bow and arrow that was tortured by him with a bang, and deliberately held his breath and did not speak.

"You think I don't want to fight? There is such a powerful thing, who doesn't want to fight who is a grandson! ”

Zhu Rui's tone was like a curse, but as soon as his voice changed, he said, "Before I came, the regent told me to scare, and you didn't know about not attacking." And we don't have any plans to attack, so if we start to fight rashly, if we can't keep up with the follow-up......"

These Zhu Feng knew that he was thinking about something else, and his shoulder touched Zhu Rui: "In addition to ordering these before coming, didn't the regent give a secret letter?" ”

Zhu Rui: "...... The regent's original words were that for ten days, Zhou Guo had nothing to do, so we asked me to open the secret letter. ”

It's only been six days now, and the people on the side of Zhou haven't talked about admitting defeat yet!

"That's what I said, but how long can Zhou Guo stand?" Zhu Feng looked outside the big tent, and said with a vivid expression on his face, "Anyway, this matter is on me, I can't stand it, why talk about sooner or later, our brothers will read the secret letter first, and see what instructions the regent has." ”

"No way!"

Zhu Rui refused, and there were still four days left until the tenth day.

"Look at it, our brothers don't know after watching the others."

"No way!"

Zhu Rui still refused.

But they couldn't resist their curiosity, and the heads of the brothers came together and opened the letter.

"Ten days later, Zhou has no intention of peace talks, so we will attack immediately!"

Zhu Feng slammed his fist on the table when he saw this sentence on the letter, and his excitement was overflowing.

"There's more to come," Zhu Rui poured cold water on him and elaborated, "If Zhou has the intention of peace talks, we must not act rashly, and wait for orders." ”

“…… That Zhou Guo didn't think we dared to attack," Zhu Feng's words changed again, and the expression on his face was scornful.

"You!"

Zhu Rui lightly wanted to restore the opened letter.

Someone outside the tent replied: "The regent is here." ”

"What?"

Zhu Feng screamed, looked at the letter that had not yet recovered, and muttered, "The regent won't be able to calculate it, will he?" ”

"Stop talking nonsense."

Zhu Rui was a little panicked, hurriedly restored the letter, and took his younger brother out.

The team with the king's banner had arrived at the camp.

Zhu Rui looked left and right: "Wuchi? ”

"It's me."

Wu Chi was dusty, but full of spirit, he jumped off the horse briskly, "I'm here for the regent, what's going on here?" ”

"There is no sign of peace talks in Zhou Guo!"

Zhu Feng interjected, eager to smear Zhou Guo's face, and his heart to attack was clear.

Wu Chi laughed and said very happily: "It's a fight or a peace, I can't help them." He looked at the brothers, "The regent has used a plan to capture the five princes who led the troops of the Zhou State alive. ”

Hearing this, the brothers had a smile on their faces.

Regardless of whether the fifth prince of Zhou could control the Zhou army on his own, capturing him alive undoubtedly shocked the Dai Guojun's heart.

Zhu Rui couldn't wait to say, "What does the regent say?" Isn't it hit? ”

Wu Chi patted him on the shoulder: "Say as you walk." ”

"That's all?"

In the border town of Daiguo, the five princes who were captured alive raised questions.

After he was captured, he was treated with high beds and soft pillows, good food and wine, only guards, and no freedom in prison. And it's been days, no one has interrogated him, and no one has come to see him.

This is a worrying thing.

But what does this regent who covers the sky with one hand say on behalf of the country?

Li Mu sat on the small horse opposite the five princes, and his intact eyesight allowed him to see that the pupils of the five princes were dilated for a moment due to shock. There's complete distrust in it.

"Naturally, that's not all."

Li Mu pressed his elbow on his leg, and at such a close distance, there was only the fifth prince in his sight.

The fifth prince was a little relieved when he heard his words, and shook his head: "The regent continued. ”

Li Mu: "This king intends to reconcile with the Zhou State, and after this battle, he is willing to open border town trade and communicate with the Zhou State." ”

The Fifth Prince: "......"

What is this?

To capture him alive like this, there is only such a requirement?

It's not that the request is small, but it's ...... I can ask for more!

Li Mu smiled at his silence and was very friendly: "Except for the fact that the soldiers are fighting each other, you are dead and alive, why is this not good?" This king wants to make friends with the five princes, and hopes that the five princes can ascend to the throne of Zhou. ”

The heart of the fifth prince was beating a little hard.

Are there many options for him now?

He narrowed his eyes at the rumored regent who covered the sky with one hand: "It is great that the two countries can cultivate themselves, and if the regent can help him, this prince will be very happy." ”

Everyone is a smart person, and the conditions given to him by Li Mu can be regarded as generous. Among them, in addition to opening up the border towns of the two countries, the Zhou State also had to produce 300,000 stone grain, 100,000 silk silks, and 100,000 stacks of tea.

Externally, these things were not to redeem the five princes, but to quell the war.

In order to calm the fighting, the five princes said that the regent would open up trade and let the two countries reconcile. And the more than 40,000 soldiers who were captured also volunteered to engage in construction in the border town of Daiguo.

Lizi has face, the fortress of Zhou is indeed threatened by powerful things, does the fifth prince have the capital to refuse?

"The situation is strong against us, why don't we fight?"

Zhu Rui, who accepted Wuchi's relay, was anxious in his heart, explaining what the side plug of the Zhou State had been destroyed.

Wu Chi sighed: "I have already understood the power of that thing, let alone Zhou Guo, we can also calm the whole world." But now is not the time for the gang of Lunas to unite against the 'land'. If we really start a war with the Zhou State, won't we be able to take care of the front and the back? ”

"Those sub-ministers!"

Zhu Rui almost smashed the table in front of him.

Wu Chi was also very sorry, and turned the topic back and said, "I have already obtained the recipe for that thing from the regent, you will ask someone to get it, let's attack the border fortress of the Zhou Kingdom!" ”

"Well, I didn't tell my brother to wait in vain."

Zhu Feng slapped his knees and stood up, which called people to prepare, and in one fell swoop attacked the border fortress of Zhou State, the locusts crossed the border, and they were robbed after the fight. The Zhou State lost two cities in a row, and he was so frightened that he couldn't wait to take out his family and stop the country that had become devastating.
