Chapter 113: Siege Wei to save Zhao

When the military report came, Ruyi was in Tian Yinqi's Ruizheng Palace, and Ruyi tried to make some iced fruit drinks and sent some to Brother Wang to try it. Before I could leave, the military newspaper was delivered.

"King, military newspaper." Wei Xin hurriedly came in with the military report.

"Read." Tian Yinqi never shied away from Ruyi, and let Wei Xin read it on the spot.

"According to information, the main force of the Wei army has broken through Handan, the capital of Zhao State, and Pang Juan led 80,000 troops to Stubble Hill, preparing to attack the country."

"Tian Ji and Sun Bin where are they?"

"It has reached the border area between Qi and Wei. General Tian wanted to engage the main Wei army directly, but was stopped by Sun's division. Sun Junshi suggested smashing the capital of Wei directly into Daliang and forcing Wei to withdraw its troops and return to help. ”

"Why is that?"

Ruyi knew that this was probably the famous Wei Wei saving Zhao in history. Then he said, "Wei has been attacking Zhao for a long time, and the main forces are outside, and the domestic defense is empty, so the tactics of attacking the east and attacking the west and encircling Wei to save Zhao are adopted, and as soon as Wei withdraws its troops, Zhao will naturally be saved." ”

"That's a good idea. Sun Junshi really planned well. Tian Yinqi said approvingly after listening to Ruyi's explanation.

Ruyi stood in front of the map and carefully compared, thought for a while and said, "If you go straight to the girder, I'm afraid that General Tian will not have enough food and grass." Brother Wang, if you wish, please escort grain and grass for them. He clenched his fists and said.

"This is a mess, you are not safe as a girl." Tian Yinqi did not immediately agree.

"Brother Wang, only with such a small goal can it not be easy to attract the attention of others. Besides, there are so many capable people and masters around me, what else is Brother Wang worried about. Ruyi continued to persuade.

In the end, Tian Yinqi agreed to let Ruyi go after many considerations.

Ruyi didn't delay his errand, packed up and got ready to go. Ruyi took Nie Zheng and Qin Yue and the four of them, as well as some personal guards assigned to her by Brother Wang, and then brought a small team of several hundred people to escort dozens of truckloads of grain and grass on the road.

Xia He also wanted to follow, but because her martial arts were low, she was afraid that she would be affected by Ruyi and them again, so Xia He had to stay in the palace and wait for Ruyi, and take care of An by the way.

Ruyi's journey was very smooth, and he was on the border of Qi and Wei. At the same time, Ruyi also received a military report, and at present, Sun Bin sent part of his troops to Pingling to launch a direct attack to attract the main force of the Wei army, and sure enough, the Qi army that attacked Pingling was defeated. Sun Bin also asked Tian Ji to send a lightly armed chariot to the outskirts of Daliang, the capital of Wei, in order to provoke Pang Juan to lead the army back to help. Ruyi knew that Sun Bin's previous arrangements were all to confuse Pang Juan, provoke Pang Juan, make him underestimate the enemy, and then return to Guiling on the way to rescue was the real ambush place.

In addition to this, Ruyi also received a letter from Sun Bin, asking when the grain and grass would arrive and the specific route. Ruyi carefully studied the route, and the city hills that he had to pass through on the way could easily be cut off from the grain route, so he had to be careful about this journey.

Ruyi was cautious along the way, for fear of making a mistake. But as the war progressed, when the battle situation was getting closer and closer to Guiling Town, Ruyi felt more and more panicked. It turned out that this situation had never happened, and Ruyi couldn't tell what she was worried about, but she always felt that something was going to happen.

In July and August, the hot weather can sweat like rain, and the earth is scorched as if it is smoking. After a few days of driving, Ruyi finally opened his mouth to let everyone rest for a while. Everyone rushed to the river with hunger and thirst, wanting to drink saliva and wash their faces to cool off.

Ruyi saw a lot of people who looked at the car, and they all ran over and shouted, "Come one by one." The soldier who came later had to go back to the car, waiting for the previous one to finish drinking and take his place. However, as soon as the soldiers in front of them reached the river, they heard an "ah" and fell in a pool of blood, and even those who were not dead fell to the ground and crawled backwards.

At the same time, the river splashed and jumped up a person to be high, Ruyi squinted his eyes and looked closely, where is a person who is high, and the water splash is clearly a person. Dozens of black-clad masked men flew up from the water and then towards the shore.

"Quick, return to defense, line up." Ruyi's series of orders, this made the team that was caught off guard come back to their senses, Nie Zheng was the first to fly to Ruyi's side, Nie Zheng's principle is very clear, he doesn't care about others, as long as Ruyi's safety is guaranteed. Therefore, Nie Zheng has been protecting Ruyi inch by inch.

The weapons were connected, the crisp sound of metal impact, Qin Yue, Xu Sheng, and Lao Yue were skilled, and the rear was mainly to protect the grain and grass on the car.

Two of them saw that Ruyi was the commander, and the so-called capture the enemy first captured the king, and the two of them came together to kill Ruyi. Sword and sword killing moves, lethal moves, Nie Zheng divided the attack power of one of them, and Ruyi concentrated on dealing with the other.

Ruyi's martial arts are not weak now, and it is not a problem to deal with one.

But dozens of black-clothed men were not in love with war, and when they saw that they couldn't attack for a long time, they got the instructions of the leader and planned to set fire to the grain and grass carts, and one by one the crossbow arrows were put on rockets and shot at the grain and grass carts. The grain and grass cart caught fire as soon as it saw it, and the fire was very strong. The black-clothed man led by him saw that the grain and grass cart was already on board, and he didn't stop much, and with a whistle, dozens of black-clothed people disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Ruyi looked at the burning grain and grass cart with an uncertain expression. Some soldiers still wanted to put it out, but the fire was so big that it was useless to put it out.

Ruyi didn't look at the burned grain and grass cart, but ordered everyone to continue to hurry, this time there was no escorted grain and grass cart, and the march was much faster. There are also soldiers who whisper secretly, not understanding why Ruyi is not in a hurry when the grain and grass cart is burned.

Wei State, the capital of the Liang.

Two people got the news at the same time. One is Wei Poop, the king of Wei, who newly moved his capital to Daliang.

Kang Ming hurriedly walked into the Qingyang Palace, Wei Poppy had not closed his eyes for a night because the Qi army came directly to attack the Liang.

"Your Majesty, Princess Ruyi's grain and grass cart was burned by unknown people all the way, but the princess did not stop, but continued to move forward." Kang Ming reported anxiously.

At this time, it was already dusk, and in the dark hall, Wei Poppy looked at the map in front of him with a gloomy expression. Kang Ming hurriedly lit the candle on the desk, and the bean-sized flame swayed in the wind. He seemed to be thinking about something, but there was a blank light in his eyes, as if he had crossed the battlefield and the fire.

Kang Ming didn't know whether to continue waiting or quit for a while, so he had to stand quietly in place and didn't step forward.

Wei Poppy didn't look up, and nodded quietly after a while, but didn't say anything.

Kang Ming licked his somewhat dry lips and had to continue, "Although the grain and grass cart has been destroyed on the road by others, our army has also set up an ambush in front, in what way should our army encircle and suppress the princess, whether to capture it alive or kill it?" ”

Wei Poppy raised his head slowly this time, his heart was heavy as if he had hung a jack pendant, he didn't know what he was feeling in his heart now, once upon a time, she helped him plan in this palace, helped him seize the throne, and even helped him fight the country. But at this time, they are on two opposite sides, separated by the sea of blood and the mountain of corpses, and they can no longer turn back and kill? Captured? What a ridiculous word, but it was used so pale between her and him.

"She must have a second move so calmly, and wait a minute, let's hold her pace first."

Wei Poppy stood up and turned his head to look at the eight big characters framed on the wall: "Diligent government and love the people, Qin Se and Ming." It was a wedding gift from Ruyi, and once upon a time, this was his wish, but the object of his wish was her.

Kang Ming didn't say anything more, and took the order and retreated silently.

The candlelight pulled Wei Poppy's shadow on the wall long, wishful, I once said, you are my only motivation. When you're stuck here, do you think of me?

The moonlight was quiet, but the air was still hot and humid.

In the east corner of Daliang City, in a grain store.

In the courtyard, a handsome man in a moon-white robe is looking at the moon with his hands in his hands, and there is a wine jug and a wine glass on the stone table.

When Second Master Tu came in, he happened to smell the sweet smell of wine in the air that had not yet dissipated. Tu Er quietly clasped his fists at the man and saluted, and then reported: "Door master," and then Tu Er quickly realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed his words, "No, no, it's Prime Minister Xu." ”

"If you have something to say, don't chew on words." Xu Gong changed his previous laziness and elegance this time, and said a little impatiently.

"Yes. Prime Minister. "Second Master Tu is becoming more and more incomprehensible, and the door master has become more and more uncertain recently." Our people failed to intercept and kill the princess of Qi by the river, but the grain and grass carts had already burned down. ”

When Xu Gong first heard about the interception, his heart suddenly rose, but when he heard it, he breathed a sigh of relief. Yes, the order to intercept and kill was given by him. But when he really heard the possible results of this order, what was going on with his heart hanging so high?

He didn't feel that he was caring about life and death, but when the restoration of Zhongshan was successful, Duke Huan wanted to marry his righteous daughter, the young master, to him, and when he flatly refused, the woman accused him hoarsely of moving feelings that shouldn't be moved, and he realized that he was indeed a little different from Ruyi in his heart.

Although it is said that the purpose of burning grain and grass this time is to prevent the Qi State from besieging the Wei State and help the Zhao State get out of trouble, in case the Zhao State frees up his hands to be unfavorable to the Zhongshan State that has just been restored, but Xu Gong's interception order this time also wants to test what his heart thinks. But now this result made him inexplicably a little anxious and panicked. Could it really be that as the woman said, he was moved by Ruyi?

Xu Gong was still pondering in his own thoughts, and Second Master Tu couldn't get Xu Gong's reply for a long time, so he had to continue, "When the princess of Qi saw the destruction of the grain and grass cart, she didn't stop long, but continued to move forward, and didn't find a way to replenish it. ”

When Xu Gong heard this, he came back to his senses and said to himself: "This is a little strange. It must not be so simple to be so calm and calm. ”

Second Master Tu looked at Xu Gong, who finally had some reactions, and then said, "Yes, this princess is scheming, and there must be a trick." However, our men have found out that the Wei army has set up an ambush in the way ahead. ”
