Chapter 57: Blockade of Sihui County
Jia Heng saw that Zhao Shi killed all the palace guards in a fit of rage, and he was stunned for a while.
"Shizi, woe to you, these people are spies of the Qin State, they are all the king's people!" Jia Heng stumbled to Zhao Shi's side and whispered.
"I know what you said," Zhao Shi looked at Jia Heng and said calmly.
"Shizi, then why do you want it?" Jia Heng asked with a puzzled expression.
"I led the army to fight the Qin army on the front line, but I turned my head in exchange for the king's distrust, and this life has been too aggrieved, since he has not let down his guard against me, then I simply voted for Fusu, so that he no longer has to be vigilant."
"Shizi, be cautious." Jia Heng glanced around and hurriedly dissuaded.
Jia Heng was worried that in addition to these people who had already been killed by Zhao Shi, there were other secret agents of the palace lurking around Zhao Shi at this moment. Once they hear Zhao Shi say that he wants to take refuge in Fusu, I am afraid that it will not be long before he will bring danger to Zhao Shi.
In the following days, Zhao Shi blockaded the county seat of Sihui at the suggestion of a group of relatives and suspended all reports sent to Panyu.
……
On a riverside platform two hundred miles away from Sihui County, Nanhai County, a huge camp is staring at Sihui County like a hunting lion, more than a dozen lookout posts towering around the camp, tens of thousands of military tents are neatly arranged in the camp, and a huge Chinese army tent is hidden in this military tent.
This is the camp where the Fusu army is stationed, and Fusu is reading the letter from Zhao Shi sent by Han Chuan in the big tent of the Chinese army at the moment.
When Fusu read it, he handed the letter in his hand to Peng Yue, and Peng Yue studied Zhao Shi's letter with Li Yan and others.
After a while, Li Yan took the lead in speaking:
"Yu Gongzi, I think that if I can really persuade this Zhao Shi to surrender, it will be a good policy. The county seat of Sihui is not as good as Bushan and other places, because the county seat of Sihui belongs to the same county as Panyu, the national governance of Nanyue, so the city defense of this county seat is much stronger than that of Bushan and other counties. The most fatal thing is that there are still 70,000 horses in this Bushan city, and our army will not have an advantage in rashly attacking the city. ”
"Childe, I think what Li Yan said is reasonable, there are many strong soldiers in Sihui County, which is indeed not conducive to the strong attack of our army. Li Yan ignored the most important point, and did not say the biggest difficulty that our army would face in storming Sihui County, this South Vietnam is not only Zhao Shi's 70,000 soldiers and horses, Zhao Tuo still has at least 150,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, once our army is dragged by Zhao Shi under this Sihui City, Zhao Tuo will inevitably take the opportunity to make a move, and when the time comes, will we retreat or hold on? ”
Peng Yue put the biggest problem facing the storming of Sihui County on the table.
"What you two say makes sense, so do as you two say, I wonder if other people still have opinions?" Fusu looked at the generals behind Peng Yue and Li Yan and asked.
"Young man, I think the two generals have said what we mean, and we have no objections."
The reason why Fusu wanted to ask these people's opinions was because Fusu saw that these generals had a low discussion after Peng Yue finished speaking, after all, there is always no harm in brainstorming.
"General Peng Yue, then please send someone to talk to our people lurking in Sihui County, let them continue to contact that Zhao Shi, and by the way, let them tell that Zhao Shi that as long as he is willing to surrender, he will take this South Vietnam in the future."
"Childe, let him take South Vietnam, I'm afraid I'm going to have another little Zhao Tuo for my Da Qin tree."
Hearing that Fusu's conditions for Zhao Shi were a bit excessive, Li Yan hurriedly reminded him.
"Li Yan, if you don't give such conditions, will Zhao Shi agree to surrender to my Great Qin? This is a deed that allows the family to betray Lao Tzu, and it will not work without great conditions. As for letting Zhao Shi come to take South Vietnam, it was just an expedient measure. ”
"Childe is far-sighted, but he is too lowly to be careful."
Seeing Li Yan say so, Fusu smiled and spoke again:
"But I really want to give that Zhao Shi the title of South Vietnam. After Zhao Shi surrendered, I will place him next to me, let him nominally come up to take the four counties of South Vietnam, I will transfer his South Vietnamese soldiers to exterminate Zhao Tuo in the name of Zhao Shi, I want to make Zhao Tuo feel the despair of being attacked and killed by his own son, I will never use this poisonous trick for others, but this is the case to deal with this Zhao Tuo, this is the punishment for his splitting the country. ”
The next day, the signal soldiers sent by Peng Yue to Sihui County turned back and brought back the news that Zhao Shi had blockaded Sihui County. Peng Yue immediately reported the situation to Fusu.
On the day that Fusu learned that Zhao Shi blocked Sihui County, Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue, also knew the news that Zhao Shi blocked Sihui County, so Zhao Tuo ordered someone to summon the prime minister to the palace.
"Wu Guoxiang, the prince blocked Sihui County two days ago, the strange thing is that the prince did not send someone to inform the widow in advance, and the widow called the minister to analyze the widow for the widow."
After hearing the news that the prince Zhao Shi blocked Sihui County, Wu Jian fell into thought.
After a while, Wu Jian stared at Zhao Tuo and asked, "I wonder if the king has ever made a move to anger the prince?" ”
"The prince is in Sihui County, how can the widow anger the prince in this Panyu city."
After listening to Zhao Tuo's answer, Wu Jian's hanging heart relaxed.
"It's good if not, as long as it's not the king's reason, that is, the Qin army has made a move, and what the prince did should be to prevent the Qin State from infiltrating Sihui County."
"After listening to what Wu Guoxiang said, the widow was relieved, he didn't see the secret report coming in the past two days, and the widow was still a little worried, but now it's okay, the widow is worry-free." Zhao Tuo said with a smile.
"My lord, what a secret report?" Wu Jian asked suspiciously.
"It's not a secret report, it's just that the widow secretly sent a few relatives from the palace to Sihui City to inspect how the prince manages the government, and let them send the news in Sihui City to me every day."
After listening to Zhao Tuo's explanation, Wu Jian was about to collapse.
"My king, how can you do such a thing, the previous incident of the son of the world being wronged has made the son of the world wary of you, and now you send someone to investigate the son of the world in secret, if you let the son know, it will be a bad thing."
"Wu Guoxiang, you are serious, the matter is not as serious as you said, not to mention that these people I sent out are all masters, and they will not be easily discovered by the prince."
Zhao Tuo felt that Wu Jian was making a fuss, and explained.
"O king, do you think that the crisis in my South Vietnam is only the Fusu army? The invasion of the Qin army is only an external crisis, and the biggest crisis in my South Vietnam at this moment is between the king and the prince. Wasn't it because you didn't trust the prince that the prince was imprisoned before, didn't you trust the prince......"
"Shut up, is this what you should say?"
Before Wu Jian finished speaking, Zhao Tuo angrily interrupted Wu Jian's words.
"O king, even if you want to kill the minister, the minister must finish speaking. Now that Shizi suddenly blocked Sihui County, I am afraid that it is related to the fact that you sent the royal palace to accompany you, and I am afraid that there will be Qin State spies among them who will take the opportunity to sow discord. ”
Zhao Tuo no longer paid attention to Wu Jian, and sulked to himself.
After Zhao Tuo calmed down, he realized that what Wu Jian said was not unreasonable, and fell into silence for a while.
After a while, Zhao Tuo looked at Wu Jian and spoke.
"Wu Guoxiang, what do you think the widow should do?"
Wu Jian looked at Zhao Tuo with a solemn expression, not knowing how to answer.
