Chapter 172: The Battle of Qi and Wei

"My niece, talent and appearance are only a handful in Xishu, if the prince marries her as his wife, I, Xishu, am willing to form an alliance with Daqi and prosper the world together! Such a grand event, does the prince still hesitate?" Liu Zhuang's conditions can be described as very tempting, and if he can manage the alliance with Xishu, the position of the prince of Gongzi can be said to be untouchable.

"Your Highness is willing to form an alliance with me, which is naturally good, but I don't dare to make my own decisions about marriage. Gongzicheng hung his head slightly, obviously unwilling to talk more.

Liu Zhuang glanced at Ye Ziyi, asked her not to get involved, and sighed deliberately. "Alas, it's a pity, since the son dislikes my good daughter in Xishu, don't talk about this war anymore, the big war is imminent, my 20,000 people are weak, it's better to leave early. ”

Hearing Liu Zhuang's words, Ye Ziyi was anxious, she naturally knew that the niece in Liu Zhuang's mouth was her, but now it was difficult to say, and when she was thinking about how to round the field, Gongzi Cheng next to her spoke.

"If His Royal Highness insists on this, Cheng, it is inconvenient to force it, send it to His Highness!" Gongzi Cheng spoke, he had already stood up and waved towards Liu Zhuang, but he really sent off the guest.

The air in the tent sank suddenly, Liu Zhuang glared at Gongzicheng, he was already angry, but Gongzicheng still looked cold and indifferent, not afraid of Liu Zhuang's threat at all.

"Childe is really good!" Liu Zhuang suddenly stood up, smiled and high-fived. "I have heard that the son of Qi has become a young talent, and he has the name of a sage, and now it seems that this is indeed the case, hahahaha, okay! I will send people to Qi to discuss relatives when I return to China, and I can also have a good story!"

Seeing that Liu Zhuang was no longer persecuting, Gongzi Cheng also eased his face and said softly. His Highness praised it. ”

"Hahahaha, it's the son who is too modest!" Liu Zhuang was very happy, nodded again and again, and waved his big hand. "Childe, sit down and talk about how to fight!"

The two gave in and sat down, and Gongzi Cheng spoke first. "The lower part of the main hall has only arrived here, and after resting, you can choose a day to cross the river with me with 30,000 horses and horses, and end this battle by raiding Qu Wok. ”

"30,000 horses, how to cross the river? Qu Wok always has a report, how to hide it from his ears and eyes?" Liu Zhuang stroked his beard and thought for a while. "If it's foggy at this time, it's the best. ”

"There is fog and fog, and there will be fog tomorrow morning, if it is uncle...... Crossing the river in the fog will inevitably not be discovered by the Wei army, if His Royal Highness is not tired, he will be able to break through the Qu Wok camp early tomorrow morning!" Ye Ziyi was in a hurry, almost missed his mouth, and hurriedly changed his words.

"I'll discuss with His Highness, don't talk too much!" Gongzi Cheng said, and instructed Ye Ziyi. "Go get the drinks. ”

"Oh. Ye Ziyi said to Gongzi Chengyi, and immediately wilted, stood up slowly, and was about to go out with his head down.

"Childe has such a great talent, are you afraid that people will know that Mr. Yu Ye is not good?" Liu Zhuang smiled, waved his hand at Ye Ziyi, motioned for her to sit down, and turned to Gongzi to become enlightened. "Childe don't have to scruple, Ah Ye's ability, I already knew that although she was talented, but I, Liu Zhuang, am definitely not such an unrighteous person, and I will not take away what Childe loves. ”

Gongzicheng didn't speak, he glanced at Ye Ziyi, and said to Liu Zhuang. "Thank you, Your Highness. ”

"Hehe, it's really rare for Childe to protect his subordinates like this. When Liu Zhuang said this, he secretly nodded to Ye Ziyi, and when Ye Ziyi saw Liu Zhuang's approval, he couldn't help blushing and quickly lowered his head.

If it wasn't for Liu Zhuang just now, she didn't think that Gongzicheng was protecting her, didn't he want Liu Zhuang to know her ability to observe celestial phenomena? Also, if it wasn't Liu Zhuang sitting opposite, but someone else, it would be hard to guarantee that she wouldn't notice her, now her identity is the biggest danger, and her ability really shouldn't be shown in front of people, this guy is really careful.

"Where. Gongzi lowered his eyes and said lightly. "That being the case, Ah Ye, tell me when the fog will rise and when it will be better to move. ”

"Yes. Ye Ziyi bowed down to receive the order and thought for a while. "When the fog starts at the end of the ugly time, it should be the thickest at the end of the Yin time, it is too dark to cross the river at that time, you can choose to travel in the middle of the river, there is a section of the Xiangshui River where I have been paved with people to lay the bottom of the river, cross the river on horseback, 30,000 people rush to the dawn before the fog clears no problem. ”

"Paved the bottom of the river?" Liu Zhuang said puzzled. "The river is flowing endlessly, how is it paved?"

"I just chose a narrow road, used pebbles at the bottom, fixed the silt, and then poured river sand from the upstream to fill the stone cracks, I tried, good horses crossed the river, the water is not more than the horse's knees, and the bottom is also steady, there is no problem. Ye Ziyi said lightly, but the two people sitting there looked at her and didn't answer for a long time. "What's wrong?

"It's not bad, Ah Ye, you mean, you have already arranged these?" Liu Zhuang said with disbelief in his tone, brushing his beard. "How do you know for sure there's going to be a war here?"

"Wei State is only more than 100,000 or 200,000 troops, although Qi State claims to have 500,000, and now there are only 300,000 soldiers who can fight, Qu Wok will naturally find out about the lack of troops and grain and grass on Gongzi's side, in this case, it is inevitable to start a war in the Xiangshui River, here is directly connected to Wei Capital, and there are mountain barriers, he is familiar with the terrain, if he does not defend here, where will he defend? If you want to attack the Qi army, you must arrange heavy troops here!" Ye Ziyi said it as a matter of course, Liu Zhuang and Gongzi glanced at each other, and opened their mouths in a long and heavy voice.

"Ah Ye, if you have no intention of going out, in this case, you can't talk about it in front of people in the future, first, you are a businessman, scheming, good at planning wars, easy to attract scruples, and second, you are by Cheng Gongzi's side, so you can do it, and it will also make others want to get rid of you quickly because of Gongzi, this is a big taboo, not a good thing, remember!" Liu Zhuang's words were exactly what Gongzi Cheng wanted to say, Gongzi Cheng nodded slightly on the side, and looked sideways at Ye Ziyi.

"Ah Ye, what His Highness said is very true, you have to keep it in mind. ”

"Got it. Ye Ziyi naturally knew that these two people were for their own good, so she thought about it. "That's it, and I don't plan anything after that. ”

"That's very good. Liu Zhuang nodded and became enlightened to his son. "In this case, this matter is decided, and at the end of tomorrow, I will walk with my son!"

"Send it to Your Highness. Gongzi Cheng bowed, waited for Liu Zhuang to stand up, stood up again, bowed his hand to Liu Zhuang, and personally sent Liu Zhuang out of the camp.

Tomorrow, tomorrow is the time for a showdown, nearly half a year's painstaking arrangement has finally come in handy, her son-in-law will definitely be able to sit on the throne of the prince of Daqi this time, there is only so much she can do.

Ye Ziyi looked at the candlelight swaying in the tent, the smile on the corner of her lips was bitter and helpless, since she can't accompany him for a lifetime, then, at least she should help him achieve hegemony, right?

......

In the early morning, the white fog was like clouds, and the banks of the Xiangshui River were so quiet that only the sound of flowing water echoed, and the camps of the Qi and Wei armies seemed to be a ghost camp looming in the thick fog.

The red sun came out of the fog and clouds, the pale golden sunlight tore through the sarong of the fog, and in an instant the world was clear, the clouds opened and the fog dispersed, and only the Xiangshui River still had a faint floating fog and light smoke.

"Knock knock! knock ......"

Suddenly, the earth-shattering war drums came from the Qi army camp, and then, the black army quickly marched to the bank of the Xiangshui River, and the uniform footsteps shook the water on the bank, which dispersed the fog on the river surface next to the bank.

"Whew-"

The low sound of the horn sounded from the Wei camp on the other side, and the horn was far-reaching and long, until it was heard several miles away.

The Wei army also moved, and the Wei soldiers in yellow suits gathered in the front row of the camp, but they did not drive to the river to fight.

Dressed in a silver helmet and silver armor, he rode a red horse and led the horse to stand in front of the soldiers, and he looked coldly at the "Gongzi Cheng" on the black armor and white horse on the opposite bank, and did not move.

The Wei army did not move, but the "Gongzi Cheng" on the white horse over there did not stop, he held high the command flag, and commanded the Qi army on the bank to rush straight towards the Xiangshui River.

Countless rafts had already been prepared on the bank of the river, and the black-clad Qi army rowed hard one by one, and in a short time, the raft in front of them rowed to the middle of the river, covering half of the river!

The Wei army never moved, Qu Wok watched the Qi army quickly row to the bank of the river, listened to the roar of the flood in the distance, smiled coldly, and he carried a pair of long hammers to the Wei army behind him. "Take all your weapons and annihilate the Qi thieves in one fell swoop!"

"Yes!" The roar of the mountain was undecided, and he heard the rumbling sound of the water getting closer and closer, Qu Wok turned his head to look at the river upstream, his eyes crossed the Qi army that was crossing the river coldly, sneered mockingly, pouted and slowly raised the black iron long hammer in his hand.

"Rumble...... Wow-"

Qu Wok was proud, suddenly a torrent spewed out from the mountain on the right, the water flow was like a waterfall yellow dragon, flying down from a cave more than a zhang high, was smashing in the camp of the Wei army, the torrent washed down more than a dozen tents at once, the water roared and rushed away, the Wei army behind was in a mess, and there were thousands of people in an instant who were swept away by the current.

"Water!"

Wei pawns fled one after another, screaming and crying continuously, and soon the team was scattered into two sides by the current, Qu Wok had not figured out what was going on, the Wei army had broken up into chaos, he shouted as hard as he could, but the scattered Wei pawns were ignored, the entire camp was flooded, and the chaos was flattened by Wei pawns, a mess.

The water flow was only eased after a cup of tea, and when Qu Wok was angry, he heard a drum on the mountainside, and suddenly countless knights rushed down the slope, these knights were dressed in black and black armor, and the leader was a white horse, which was actually the same as the "Gongzicheng" who commanded the Qi army to cross the river on the opposite bank!

"Qu Wok Lao'er!

With a loud shout, the black-armored knight rushed out of the horse, and the halberd in his hand beckoned to Qu Wok!

"Dangchang!"

The metal touched, and there was a piercing sound, and a string of sparks flashed between the weapons, and the woks were raised, catching the man's halberd, and he lifted it with force, pushed the halberd away, and smashed it on the head of the man's mount with a backhand, until the horses* splashed in all directions, and the body was crooked, and the black-armored knight fell to the ground.
