Chapter 34 You haven't done an inch, and it's hard for this king

As the celebration banquet officially began, Zhao Hongming, the martial king, sat on the main seat, looking at the many soldiers on the martial arts arena pushing the cup, and couldn't help but smile a little more on his face.

Under his seat, Wu Qi sat behind the long case in battle armor, showing his majesty and demeanor as a general of the first army.

Zhao Hongming first raised his glass and praised his heroic performance in the Battle of Jinyin: "General Wu Qi, this time facing the attack of the Zhao army. Our side can win, it all depends on your training strategy and excellent tactics, this king toasts you! ”

Wu Qi raised his glass and responded gratefully: "Thank you Your Highness for your trust and support, without Your Highness's kindness, Qi would not have been able to train this army, let alone be able to defeat the Zhao army." ”

"Haha, General Wu is still modest." Zhao Hongming put away the smile on his face and said: "However, the threat of the Zhao army has not been completely eliminated, this king has already heard that Li Mu of Zhao State is going to gather 200,000 troops on the other side of the river, and there is still a tough battle to be fought next, and General Wu still has to make more preparations." ”

"If the Zhao army can be broken this time, Wei Wushu will defeat the Zhao army ten times his own with 30,000 people, then it will be difficult for General Wu not to become famous. When the time comes, this king is willing to play to his father and ask him to crown General Wu as the right general. ”

In the Wei State, the title of General Right is one of the positions of military generals, and the military generals of Wei who have received this title are all the best among the soldiers.

Once there is the title of right general, it means that this military general has entered the hall and is among the powerful generals.

Wu Qi's expression changed, and a look of excitement flashed in his eyes: "The last general will definitely go all out to wipe out these 200,000 Zhao troops for His Highness." ”

Zhao Hongming said seriously: "Although this king is not good at soldiers, he has also read a lot of military books and knows that soldiers are fast. The Zhao army has just been defeated, and it is a time when morale is low, and if it drags on for too long, it will not be good for us to let the Zhao army gain a firm foothold. What should General Wu do next? ”

Wu Qi clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness doesn't need to worry, after this banquet, we will prepare to attack Zhao." But before that, His Highness needs to agree to the last general. ”

"What's the matter? General, please speak. ”

"This attack on Zhao involves Wei and Zhao, in case the imperial court blames, His Royal Highness hopes that the last general will resist one or two, and when the last general attacks Zhao is over, no matter whether he wins or loses, the last general will be guilty."

Zhao Hongming still thought that what kind of request it was, if he asked for soldiers and salaries, it might be a little difficult, but such trivial matters in the court, then he really had nothing to fear.

The current Emperor Jian'an's attitude towards him, he can sense it even if he is far away in Yingjun.

Otherwise, the 100,000 armaments would not reach him.

Zhao Hongming laughed and said, "General Wu doesn't have to worry about this matter. Zhao Guo's undeclared war was treacherous. Prior to this, this king had already sent someone to Daliang to meet his father, and presumably there would be news back in the next two days. ”

"If the court is really such a wreck, willing to swallow its anger, this king will not agree." Zhao Hongming glanced at Wu Qi with deep meaning, and said with a smile: "The king's name is not just a decoration. ”

Wu Qiwan suddenly woke up and knew that his Royal Highness was a martial arts genius, and he was afraid that he had a very high weight in Emperor Jian'an's heart.

"Then the general will be relieved." Wu Qi said: "At present, this celebration banquet can also be used as a military banquet. ”

The so-called military banquet refers to the banquet held by the monarch or the lord for the army or warriors before the expedition, so as to strengthen the army and boost morale.

In today's war of the Six Nations, the military banquet is an important ceremony, and it is also an important occasion to announce military action to the whole army.

Zhao Hongming thought about it and found that it was really suitable: "In this way, we should first share the reward to boost morale." Gao Yanshi, bring everything here! ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Soon, a group of guards moved a number of rewards such as wish stones, gold and silver treasures to the martial arts arena.

Gao Yanshi sang loudly: "His Royal Highness the Martial King has an order, share the reward!" ”

There was a brief silence among the many Wei warriors on the stage, and then a tsunami-like cheer.

Under the watchful eyes of the many generals on the high platform, the corresponding rewards were distributed to the corresponding soldiers.

Wu Qi stood in front of the high platform and shouted: "Zheng Sanhu, Zuo Huaiyin, Ren Maocai, Ma Chuanping, Leyang...... Dequeue! ”

There were twenty or thirty Wei Wushu who were called by name, their faces were condensed, the smile on their faces was put away, and they stood in front of everyone as they usually practiced in the army.

Wu Qi announced loudly: "The above Wei Wushu has captured five Zhao Army's "Jia Shi" (enemy officers), and all of them have been promoted to five levels of knighthood, and they have been promoted from above to official doctors!" ”

These people showed excited looks on their faces: "General Xie Wu, His Royal Highness King Xie Wu." ”

Becoming an official doctor not only means that their current treatment has improved a lot, and Yuanshi's income has increased, but also means that they will have certain privileges in the Wei State in the future.

In the future, some small martial arts forces may take refuge in them and become their subordinates.

Even if the title is withdrawn after two or three generations, they are enough to save a lot of wealth for their children and grandchildren.

This is unimaginable among other martial arts forces.

At this moment, they felt that joining the command of the Martial King was the right decision.

After the equal reward was over, these people all raised their heads and entered the queue under the envious gaze of the other soldiers.

When all the Wei warriors received the corresponding rewards, the morale of the scene reached its peak.

Wu Qi stood on the high platform and said loudly: "Soldiers, listen to me. ”

Many soldiers in the martial arts arena became quiet.

"Since the news has been obtained, Zhao Jun is still undead to my Ying County, and has placed 200,000 troops in the east of the river across the river, planning to invade Hexi again, what should our army do?"

"Fight to the death!"

"What should I do to Zhao Jun!"

"Kill!"

"Okay, then today's celebration banquet is also a military banquet!"

Wu Qi raised his wine glass, walked to the front of the high platform, and said in a high tone: "Shang Fang God, fortunately with wine syrup, inherit the sky, and Ning my county." Today, a large number of troops will be sent out, and the wine will be high, and the gods will be worshiped to calm the people. ”

"Dare to beg the gods, surrender to wisdom, give my soldiers divine power, so that the enemy will be broken into thousands of pieces, and our army will be invincible. May our army be safe, and the wind will know the strength of the grass, and sacrifice first and then decide!! ”

After speaking, Wu Qi poured the wine in the cup on the ground.

Wei Wushu, other generals and soldiers on the high platform also did the same, pouring wine on the ground.

Suddenly, the atmosphere on the high platform became a little more solemn.

"Today, everyone and enjoy the joy, tomorrow we will defeat the Zhao army together."

"Defeat the Zhao army!"

Afterwards, Wu Qi returned to his seat, and the banquet entered a climax.

There was a heckling below, and many warriors took off their shirts, revealing their muscular upper bodies.

Some people clapped their hands and beat the beats, and they began to dance with their swords, presenting a feast of sword dancing for the people.

The atmosphere became more enthusiastic.

At this time, there are many delicacies and wines on the high platform.

The aroma of roast lamb, juicy fish fillets, and pastries with a unique texture are all fragrant and appetizing.

Zhao Hongming picked up a pair of chopsticks, picked up an ice shrimp and put it in his mouth, revealing a look of enjoyment.

Many Wei soldiers in front of them began to greet each other at this moment, and they noticed Ji Guofu sitting on the other side of Zhao Hongming.

At Wu Qi's signal, a Wei Wushu general stood up and said to Ji Guofu: "Dare to ask this Yan Kingdom warrior, how to call it, and what are your previous achievements?" ”

After Ji Guofu swallowed a piece of sashimi, he looked up.

On the face of the person in front of him, the Yin Hall is dark gold, indicating that there are nobles to help.

Not only him, but most of the generals on the high platform, except for the general named Wu Qi and the martial king Zhao Hongming, all present this face.

This also shows that these people's skills are average.

Ji Guofu had some bottom numbers in his heart, and said truthfully: "In the next Ji Guofu, he killed a person in Yan Country and fled, and then served as a captain under Li Muzuo, and he didn't make much merit for two years, so he only let His Royal Highness not give up, and was willing to stay below." ”

The general Wei Wushu who spoke showed a look of disdain, and continued to ask, "Then what are your specialties, or what treasures have you offered to Your Highness?" ”

Ji Guofu shook his head and said, "No." ”

This Wei Wushu general said coldly: "Then how can you sit beside His Royal Highness King Wu and be alongside General Wu?" If I were you, I would sit with all the soldiers under the high platform, not sit here so shamelessly. ”

On the high platform, the atmosphere suddenly became tense and depressing.

The eyes of the general who spoke were cold and sharp.

Ji Guofu sat opposite him, his demeanor calm and calm.

The eyes of the two met as if they were silently arguing.

Regarding this scene, Zhao Hongming sat on the main seat and pretended to ignore it.

He had already observed that this was because Wu Qi secretly instructed him to be hostile to the newly joined Ji Guofu.

In fact, this is also Zhao Hongming's intention, he deliberately raised Ji Guofu's position to achieve his own goals later.

Ji Guofu said unhurriedly: "Although I didn't dedicate treasures and didn't have too many specialties, I brought crucial news to His Majesty King Wu and saved His Highness from a disaster." That's why His Highness has treated me as a guest. ”

"Oh, isn't it just a betrayal and abandonment of the Lord, and I'm really ashamed to be with you."

Wu Qi said: "Enough! His Royal Highness is here, and Hugh is presumptuous. ”

This Wei Wushu general sat down indignantly.

Ji Guofu's face was also unrestrained, but he still endured it and did not have a seizure.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

Until nightfall, this banquet, which was both a celebration banquet and a military banquet, finally ended successfully.

Zhao Hongming took the lead in walking backstage, followed by Wu Qi and others.

Except for Wu Qi, the rest of the Wei generals all showed disdainful expressions when they passed by Ji Guofu.

Ji Guofu's face became ugly because of this.

At this moment, Gao Yanshi walked to Ji Guofu's side and whispered, "Warrior Ji, Your Highness is invited." ”

"I'm tired of my father-in-law leading the way." Ji Guofu put away the displeasure on his face and followed Gao Yanshi to a house next to the martial arts arena.

The room is not big, and there is a low couch in it.

Zhao Hongming sat cross-legged on it and was sipping tea.

Ji Guofu bowed his head and walked in: "Your Highness, are you looking for me?" ”

Gao Yanshi behind him took the initiative to close the door, stood beside Zhao Hongming, and took the teacup handed over by Zhao Hongming.

Zhao Hongming looked up at Ji Guofu and said, "Warrior Ji, do you know why I invited you over?" ”

Ji Guofu thought for a while and replied, "I think it's because of my performance today that it is difficult for His Highness to do." ”

Hard to do?

This is just an excuse thrown out by Ji Guofu.

Today, on the high platform, he has been secretly observing.

It was found that Wu Qi and many other Wei generals had great respect for the princes of Zhao Hongming.

The entire Wei Wushu was also firmly grasped by him.

It's incredible.

However, it also shows that the Royal Highness of the Martial King in front of him is as unusual as he observed before.

There are secrets between him and these generals that he does not know.

In this case, as long as Zhao Hongming wants to, he should be able to stop others and do it.

But he didn't.

The implications of this are already obvious.

It is estimated that he wants to beat him, and then appease, restrain him, and let him serve his life.

It's just that he, as a general, just took refuge, and these words must not be said, so he used "difficult to do" as an excuse.

Thinking of this, Ji Guofu couldn't help but glance at Zhao Hongming secretly.

He is so young, and he is so perfect with this kind of mastery technique.

Many middle-aged people are afraid that they can't compare with it.

"It's just a small thing, don't worry about it." Zhao Hongming let out a long sigh and said: "This king is very optimistic about you and wants to promote you, but you also see it." You haven't made an inch, and it's very difficult for this king to do it. ”

Here's the business.

His Royal Highness King Wu, this is something to say.

Ji Guofu's spirit was shocked, and he asked, "I hope His Highness will teach you!" ”

Zhao Hongming got straight to the point and said: "This king wants you to return to Zhao Jun and act as an internal response for this king, how about it?" ”

After saying that, he put his fingers on the table and tapped them gently, as if waiting for something.

When Ji Guofu heard this, his heart trembled.

One word came to mind in an instant, Death!

His cultivation is not high, and he has no foundation and power in the Zhao army.

Now there are four martial arts in the Zhao army, and if he is an internal response, this is the only role he can play.

The so-called dead time refers to those who are created to spread false information, and pass on false information to enemy spies through their own spies, so as to lure the enemy into being deceived, and once the matter is revealed, their own spies will inevitably die.

This stratagem is often used as a means of confusing and dividing the enemy between the two armies.

Ji Guofu was silent, and his eyes never left Zhao Hongming's face.

On his face, he seemed to see those intertwined "qi".

Maybe it's also an opportunity for him.

Recalling all the unsatisfactory things in the past, Ji Guofu made up his mind and said: "I am willing to give it a try, I don't know what His Highness is going to do?" ”

His words were calm, but they were full of firmness and determination.

"You don't have to be too nervous, it's not so dangerous, as long as you control it well, maybe it's still a fortune for you."

"Your Highness, please speak!"

Zhao Hongming said with a smile: "Now the Eastern Army Lu Zonghui doesn't want to cooperate with Li Mu, this king is as he wants, just let him 'Li Mu' cooperate with him, and set up a circle for him." When the time comes, you only need to reveal a little 'military information' to Li Mu, how about it? (End of chapter)
