Chapter 49: Admitting defeat

The hot meal came up, and Gengmu Dalu buried himself in the meal, blocking the man's next complaints. There are steamed buns and pancakes to satisfy his stomach, although he is not hungry, but seeing such a fragrant hot rice, Chu Junxi still can't help but use a bowl.

It was the first time to be stared at by so many people, Chu Junxi was quite unaccustomed to it, and he didn't know where he ate a bowl of rice.

After the two finished eating, the people who came in outside took down the dishes and chopsticks, and before they went out with the plates, the burly and dark-faced general couldn't wait to speak, "What did the marshal gain this time?" ”

Gengmu Dalu glanced at him, "Don't you see such a big person standing here?" ”

"Women?"

"It's Yuan Yongyan's woman." Gengmu Dalu slowly corrected.

The other party's eyes suddenly lit up, "Does the marshal mean to use this woman to make Yuan Yongyan jealous?" Yuan Yongyan even took this woman with her to fight, which shows her love for this woman.

"Well, I haven't figured out how to use it yet."

"So what are we going to do next?"

I didn't sleep well last night, and after another day of traveling, Chu Junxi was tired and sleepy, the whole person was drowsy and crumbling, and the argument in my ear became a song that accelerated his sleep.

'Bang', Chu Jun held his forehead that was hurt, and when he saw that everyone was looking over here, he immediately blushed and felt sleepy.

"Let's get here today." Gengmu Dalu put away the map and said to Chu Jun, "You follow General Wang, and he will arrange a place for you to live." ”

Even wearing heavy armor, Chu Junxi could see General Wang's broad figure, powerful arms, and black-red skin exposed to the wind and sun. She secretly said that the general should be like this.

General Wang stopped at the door of a tent, "The girl will rest here tonight, if there is anything to send someone will only say, I will send it for the girl." ”

"Thank you, General." Chu Jun entered the tent and then heard the footsteps of General Wang leaving.

The inside of the tent was very clean, just at a glance, Chu Junxi was attracted by the wide bed, and the thick mattress should be very comfortable to lie on.

Although there were many doubts in his heart, even though he was now a hostage, he couldn't withstand the attack of sleepiness, and Chu Junxi quickly fell asleep.

Hearing the footsteps coming and going outside the tent, Chu Junxi opened his eyes, only to find that the sky was already bright, and a copper basin was prepared in the house, with water in it.

Although Chu Junxi had no experience of being a hostage, and wanted to know that the hostages were restricted in their movements and strictly guarded and tortured to extract confessions, but since they were taken captive, they were completely treated as guests, and last night they discussed the battle plan in front of them, and they slept alone in a tent, and the attitude of General Wang was not what they should have for hostages.

Since they didn't restrict their freedom, they would also give themselves some food, Chu Junxi stopped the soldiers who walked in front of him, and wanted to ask the other party where to find some food, but before she could speak, the other party was surprised, "You are the woman that the marshal brought back last night?" ”

Chu Jun nodded awkwardly.

The other party looked at Chu Junxi carefully, "It's really a beauty." ”

"Can you tell me ......?"

"You want to see the marshal, don't you? The marshal was in that tent. Without waiting for Chu Junxi to finish speaking, he kindly pointed the way for her, pointing to a tent road with brocade white and gold edges.

Chu Jun smiled and thanked him, anxious soldiers, lazy marshals, Meng Ye was really different.

In the tent, Gengmu Dalu was reading a book, and when he saw her come in, he put down the book in his hand and smiled, "Are you awake?" How was your sleep last night? ”

Chu Junxi nodded, "I slept very well." ”

"I don't know your name yet." Gengmudaru walked to the table to the side, on which was the prepared meal.

"Chu Jun pity." Chu Junxi sat down opposite him.

"Gengmudaryu." Gengmu Dalu said, "Let's eat, I'll take you out for a walk after you're done." ”

said that it was to go for a walk, it was really a leisurely walk, the children next to him laughed happily, the adults laughed happily, and the hawkers shouted, if it weren't for the different clothes on their bodies and Gutuo, Chu Junxi really thought that he was still in Gutuo.

"Aren't you curious that you are now a hostage, and you are so free."

Chu Jun said regretfully, "Could it be that you arrested me to make Gu Tuo submit?" ”

Gengmuda said, "Sort of, in order for the emperor of Gutuo to agree to my conditions more happily." Chu Jun was about to speak, so he continued, "This battle has lasted for nearly two months, and it has brought great losses to Meng Ye, and the people are even more miserable. ”

Chu Jun was silent.

"The territory of Gutuo is five times that of Mengye, and the emperor of Gutuo is wise and wise. He was an emperor on horseback, a feared marshal long before he ascended the throne, and I heard that he had never suffered defeat since he led his army. Meng Ye is not their opponent, and it is already the end of the strong crossbow to hold on until now. Gengmu Dalu's eyes were far away, "In this battle, Meng Ye is in a catastrophe." ”

The first time I heard about Yuan Yongyan from other people's mouths, I didn't expect that he was still a master of leading troops to fight, and he had never lost a battle, so he couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

"So, I never thought I'd win this battle."

"Then ...... you" Since Yuan Yongyan has never suffered defeat, it can be seen that he uses his soldiers like a god, Gengmu Dalu can fight against him for two months, and his talent is also very comparable, "Do you want to admit defeat?" ”

"If you can't beat it, you can only admit defeat." Gengmu Dalu was helpless.

Chu Junxi looked sideways, his complaint didn't look like an unpaid ambition, but more of a child's unhappiness that he failed to achieve his wish, "Do you all think so?" ”

"I'm a marshal, so naturally I'm in charge." Gengmu Dalu looked at the sky, "However, admitting defeat is also a science." ”

"If you want to admit defeat, why waste two months of time at the expense of the people and money?" Chu Jun was puzzled.

"You also know Gu Tuo's emperor ambitions, if I admit defeat from the beginning, he will definitely leave no bones left in Meng Ye's food." Gengmu Dalu said, "I also want him to know Mengye's strength, so that he can speak in future negotiations." ”

Chu Jun figured out what he meant, "How do you want me to help you?" Although I am Yuan Yongyan's concubine, he will not give up sending troops to Meng Ye for the sake of a woman. She was sure that not only herself, but even if Lin Cairen was here, the emperor would not change his mind.

"Do you have any trinkets or objects that you bring with you?"

Chu Jun was puzzled.

"Any thing, as long as Yuan Yongyan sees it and knows that it's yours."

Chu Junxi took out the rouge that Yuan Yongyan bought for him, handed it to Gengmu Dalu, and grabbed the finger of the rouge box for a long time without letting go, "I, I'll find something else for you." The moment she let go, she couldn't bear it.

Gengmu Dalu looked at her with a smile.

rummaged through the whole body, Chu Jun regretted that he couldn't find a piece of his belongings, and the jade pendant that Su Ao gave himself was brought with him, but the jade pendant was absolutely unavailable, not to mention whether it could be returned to his hands completely, if it was discovered by Yuan Yongyan, there would be extraneous branches, and Chu Jun regretted not daring to imagine the consequences after he knew.

"It's better to just take the rouge box just now, I promise it will be completely returned to your hands." Gengmu Dalu laughed.

Chu Jun reluctantly sent it to him, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Summation."

Gengmu Dalu was very calm when he said these two words, as if he was asking the hour, and Chu Jun couldn't help but look at him.

"There's nothing strange about it, whether it's national strength or military strength, Meng Ye is invincible to Gutuo, and it's a matter of time before he surrenders."

"Will Gu Tuo agree?"

"I didn't know before, but now it's not you."

"Me?" Chu Junxi laughed at himself, "You overestimate my status in Yuan Yongyan's heart. ”

"It's not for you to say whether it's high or not, I'm waiting for Emperor Gutuo's answer."

With the delivery of the letter of peace, a few days passed, and there was no movement at all, Chu Junxi's heart sank to the bottom, even though she already knew in her heart that Yuan Yongyan would not change the battle plan for herself, but when it really happened, she found that her heart couldn't help but feel a pain.
