A few days later—

The one who went to Qin to conclude the alliance was a strange lineup.

Zhao Ju was at the front of the team, dressed in yellow, and his expression did not look good, even a little gloomy.

This old Ling Yin was seriously ill by Xiong Wuliang a few days ago, and he has not completely recovered yet, causing Zhao Ju's gloomy face to be a little pale, and his bloodless face has a sickly flush.

Behind Lao Zhaoju is the car of the prince Mi Heng.

The crown prince danced with excitement - this was the first time in his life that he had been entrusted with such a heavy task by King Chu Huai.

Mi Heng was excited, not only the excitement of escaping from the cage of Yingdu, but also the determination to build a career and impress everyone.

Compared with the previous Zhaoju, the two are in stark contrast......

On the carriage of the prince Miheng, there is also a white and tender Huang Xie - at this moment, Huang Xie's face is also ugly, compared with Zhao Ju.

Huang Xie was not good at the front, and looked at the other car beside him.

The chariot is quite ancient, the whole body is cast in bronze, only the support is wrapped in reddish-brown pear wood, which looks particularly elegant and atmospheric.

Unfortunately, the owner of the car is not 'elegant'.

Xiong Wuliang slept in a daze—he was a little excited yesterday, slept late, and was particularly sleepy this morning. Finally out of Yingdu City, Xiong Wuliang fell asleep as soon as possible.

Behind Xiong Wuliang, the chest-haired monster Peony Tiger has a steel shield in his left hand and a short spear in his right hand, like a fierce monster, standing next to Xiong Wuliang.

I heard that he was going to Qin State on an errand, Xiong Wuliang ordered Shaohu to rush from the fiefdom to Yingdu overnight - this is the highest force value under Xiong Wuliang's command, with this chest hair monster, Xiong Wuliang went to the tiger and wolf Qin State, and he could have some confidence in his heart.

Huang Xie saw Xiong Wuliang's lazy appearance, and he was a little angry.

This is the envoy group of the Great Chu State to the Qin State, can you be serious?

To be honest, Huang Xie was also a little jealous of Xiong Wuliang.

In terms of age, Xiong Wuliang is not a few years older than Huang Xie, but he was able to be appointed as the 'deputy envoy' by the King of Chu in a grand manner.

And Huang Xie can only participate in the envoy group as an 'appendage' of another deputy envoy Mi Heng.

Granny dripping! Unwilling!

"Qu Yangjun, under the rule of the public, please correct your manners." Huang Xie finally couldn't help it, jumped into Xiong Wuliang's car with a gloomy face, and woke Xiong Wuliang awake.

Xiong Wuliang opened his eyes in confusion-

The convoy had just driven out of Yingdu and was on the outskirts, at least a few days away from the Qin-Chu border.

Lush farmland on both sides – where does it come from?

"It's Huang Gongzi," Xiong Wuliang rubbed his eyes and sat up straight, and then rubbed Huang Xie's head sleepily: "It's long again!" ”

Scald!

Huang Xie was angry!

I shouldn't owe it, and I shouldn't take care of Xiong Wuliang.

This dog thing is so infuriating!

Xiong Wuliang stretched his waist and yawned long: "This bronze car is really comfortable, it is indeed much more stable than ordinary cars - Benjun is asleep!" ”

Zhao Ju, who was at the front of the team, trembled at the corners of his mouth, and didn't look back-

"Deputy Envoy Mi Liang, pay more attention to your words and deeds."

"That's it at this moment - when I enter the territory of the Qin State, I can't lose the face of my Great Chu State, and let those Qin people think that my Great Chu is just some snooze straw bales." Zhao Ju said coldly.

Xiong Wuliang looked respectful: "Master Yin has taught him a lesson!" ”

"The kid was taught!"

"It's just that Lord Lingyin's face is so ugly now—you see that your face is pale, and you look like you're overindulgent...... If it is seen by the people of the Qin State, it is estimated that they will have to laugh at the poor appearance of my nobles of the Chu State......"

"I'll tell you the truth, the car under my ass is quite stable, and it is better than your car...... Why don't you come and take a break in my car? ”

Zhao Ju turned his head suddenly, his face full of anger.

was broken by Xiong Wuliang again!

The crown prince Mi Heng tried his best to hold back a smile, and then said seriously: "Ahem, two, even though there are some contradictions at the moment, but when we get to the Qin State, you and I are both Chu people." ”

"Don't make such a fuss anymore and make the Qin people laugh."

Xiong Wuliang took the thick sheepskin map from Mi Heng's hand and glanced at it about twice.

According to the current route, it is necessary to pass through [Deng] and [Yin] all the way, and then pass through Danyang, and enter the hinterland of Qin from Wuguan.

Looking at the big 'Danyang' two Chu seals on the map, Xiong Wuliang fell into a short silence.

Just a few years ago, it was the territory of the Great Chu State.

Now, the cities and lands there are full of the black flags of the Qin people.

Xiong Wuliang faintly seemed to be able to hear the roars and wails of the 80,000 Chu soldiers who died in Danyang.

This revenge will be avenged sooner or later!

……

Danyang, as a new territory plundered by the Qin State from the Chu State in recent years, it seems that the Qin people did not govern it well.

Large tracts of fertile land are barren, and the villages along the way are also ten rooms and nine empty, and it is estimated that the villagers were either killed by the Qin people, or were relocated to the hinterland of the Qin State west of Wuguan.

Looking at the whole world, the Qin State has the most serious vice of killing good people and risking merit.

Because of Shang Ying's military method of counting merit by beheading, Qin's soldiers were obsessed with cutting off their heads—whether the head was cut off on the battlefield, borrowed from unarmed captives after the war, or from the common people......

The Qin people are not very picky.

To be honest, it doesn't even matter if it's a man or a woman, an adult or a child.

Anyway, a head is bloody, and the military judge in charge of counting the head will not wash it one by one.

It was precisely because of the bad habits of the Qin army that the six kingdoms of Shandong regarded the Qin state as a strange enemy.

The ground is dark red, and there seems to be blood stains - the 80,000 Chu soldiers who died in Danyang in the battle don't sound very exaggerated, but if it is really in front of you, it is also a mountain of corpses.

The group was silent, and even the prince Mi Heng, who had been dancing with his eyebrows, looked solemn.

Looking closely, this prince had an undisguised hatred for the Qin people on his face.

"The body is dead, the spirit is the spirit, and the soul is the ghost......" Xiong Wuliang suddenly muttered.

Everyone in the group looked sideways - everyone knows that this is "National Martyrdom" written by Qu Yuan.

"Ahead is Wuguan." Mi Heng patted Xiong Wuliang's shoulder and said.

Wuguan has always had the names of "Three Qin Fortresses" and "Qin Chu Throat", and is called "Qin's Four Fortresses" together with Hangu Pass, Xiao Pass and Dasan Pass. ”

From a geographical point of view, Wuguan is the southeast gate of Qin.

With such an important pass, the perfection of the garrison can be imagined.

The envoys of the state of Chu came to the front of Wuguan, and when they looked up, the mountains on both sides were one day after another, and the lush trees were all over the slopes.

Wuguan was stuck between the two mountains, blocking the only way from the northwestern part of the Chu state to the southeastern hinterland of the Qin state.

The gate of Wuguan is closed - Qin and Chu have not revised the alliance after the Battle of Danyang, and they are still nominally in a state of war, so naturally there is no business travel - the city wall is built of bluestone, which is much more steep than the Chuyue gateway [Jianyang City] that Xiong Wuliang saw at the beginning.

It's really dangerous!

At the head of Wuguan City, the black flags of the Qin army were standing in a forest, and Xiong Wuliang was looking at it, when suddenly a feather arrow burst out and stuck in front of Zhao Ju's chariot.

"I am the Qin general, who is coming?" A clear, long roar came from the top of the city.
