Chapter 306: The Fool's Law, Ji Dan's Clever Plan
"Huh?!" The herald knelt on one knee outside the Chinese army's tent, not understanding what General Nezha Li meant. However, he didn't dare to ask!
Nezha Li San suddenly said: "Shoot that messenger to death with an arrow! Then, just pick up the letter that Wen Zhong wrote to General Ben!"
"No!" After receiving Nezha Li San's order, the herald immediately mounted his horse and galloped to the defenders of the South City Gate, conveying Nezha Li San's military order.
The messenger sent by Wen Taishi was actually Deng Zhong, the head of the four heavenly monarchs of Deng, Xin, Zhang, and Tao that he had received from Huanghua Mountain.
And the reason why Nezha Li San wanted to shoot him with random arrows was because Nezha Li San also knew that because he was the head of the Heavenly Monarch of Huanghua Mountain, how could he not let the mortal Chao Jian shoot him to death?
What's more, the handwritten letter of Master Wen Zhong brought by Deng Zhong this time was full of words to persuade the generals of the Western Zhou Dynasty. This letter, of course, could not allow Deng Zhong to enter the barracks in person, and let him casually win over those who were not determined under the general.
After all, Nezha Li San, a traverser who is familiar with the plot of the gods, knows that this time Wen Zhongxin led a large army to conquer Xiqi, and first sent Deng Zhong, who looked like blue indigo, hair like cinnabar, with a huge mouth and fangs, and a sound like a thunderbolt, so that Deng Zhong, who had a mountain-opening axe, came as a messenger to deliver the war letter, just to give Western Zhou a dismount. After all, in the original world of the gods, Jiang Ziya also warmly received this envoy Deng Zhong who came to provoke.
Of course, Nezha Li San doesn't have the good temper of his uncle Jiang Ziya. Deng Zhong, the messenger, of course, the three generals Nezha and Li can't get used to his mistakes.
At this point,
The herald sent by Nezha Li San conveyed Nezha Li San's military order to Ji Dan, the supreme commander of the defenders at the South City Gate.
Ji Dan is the later famous Zhou Gongdan. At this time, he was not named the Duke of Zhou.
When Ji Dan heard the order of the three generals Nezha and Li, he was simply confused.
Ji Dan incredulously asked the herald sent by Nezha Li San, "Is this order really from the mouth of our General Li?"
"Yes!" the herald spread his hands and said, "Even if you give the villain 10,000 guts, I don't dare to fake the general's military orders." Moreover, I have faith in the arrows in my hand. ”
Ji Dan thought for a while, and looked at the food order arrow in the herald's hand, which was true.
Ji Dan muttered to himself: "The two armies will not kill the envoys when they fight! Isn't the general's military order a trap for Ji Dan and me in unkindness and injustice?"
The herald urged, "Please hurry up and carry out the general's orders!"
"Alas!" Ji Dan sighed helplessly: "It's all about it!"
He climbed the city wall and saw Deng Zhong, who was riding alone, looking like a monster. He was born with a face like blue indigo, hair like cinnabar, and a huge mouth with fangs. Because he had come to deliver the letter, he carried the great axe in his right hand.
After Deng Zhong saw Ji Dan, the chief general guarding the city, poking his head out of the city wall, his voice was like a thunderbolt, and he shouted: "The general of the Zhou army guarding the southern city, a certain [envoy] Deng Zhong, is ordered by the Taishi of Yin Shang to enter the Western Zhou of the vassal state of my Yin Shang, and quickly open the city gate for a certain one.
When the gates of the city have been closed for a long time, do you not regard a certain person as an envoy, as if there is nothing?
Don't you know you've committed a great sin?"
Ji Dan heard that Deng Zhong was so arrogant, he was as arrogant as a bandit. He was very displeased. Moreover, Deng Zhong said that he was the above envoy, and said that the Western Zhou Dynasty was a vassal state that submitted to the feet of the dry Yin Shang.
Ji Dan secretly said in his heart: "Yin Shang, who has fallen lonely, where did you get your sense of superiority?"
However, Ji Dan did not say what he thought on the surface.
Because, at this time, Ji Dan knew that he still had the military orders of the three generals Nezha and Li that had not been completed. That military order, to be honest, was not lightly bound by the set of Zhou rites created by King Wen of Zhou since childhood.
Ji Dan felt that if he shot Yin Shang's call, then this was the consensus of the world that 'the two armies fought without killing to call' rules did not conform to the consensus.
However, Ji Dan knew that Nezha and Li San's army were very strict. If he, a member of the royal family, does not have to obey the military orders of the three major generals of Nezha and Li, then with the character of the general and the strict law enforcement in the army, it is really possible to use him as a knife.
Now, Ji Dan has already seen that the big man who holds the real power in this Western Zhou Dynasty is the three major generals Nezha Li, and as for his brother Bo Yi Kao, the eldest brother of Ji Dan, it is also clear to all schools, just a puppet king.
Because Ji Dan is the Zhou Gongdan who later left his name in history, there are even many famous sentences similar to 'Zhou Gong Tu Bao, the world returns to the heart' and praised his governance and auxiliary government. Obviously, Ji Dan at this time has not been named Duke of Zhou. However, his outstanding talent and super high IQ are still very online.
At this time, after Ji Dan received the military order brought by the herald, he really felt very embarrassed.
Shooting the envoy of the two armies at war is a big infamy! However, Ji Dan thought about it, if he didn't listen to the military orders of the three generals Nezha Li, it would be a big crime to be beheaded according to the law!
What's more, what made Ji Dan very difficult was that in Nezha Li San's military order, he also had to leave the handwritten letter in the hand of Deng Zhong and hand it over to General Nezha Li Sansan.
Although Ji Dan is not a cultivator, his eyesight is still very good. Through his visual inspection, he had already seen that Master Wen's envoy was a cultivation and low existence!
In case this is a flurry of arrows, it can really shoot Deng Zhong to death, that would be really good.
However, Ji Dan also thought about it, if Deng Zhong saw that after our army shot ten thousand arrows at him, the envoy, he would turn his horse's head and run back to Yin Shang's military camp, wouldn't he have completed the military order given by the three generals Nezha and Li?
Thinking of Ji Dan here, he suddenly said loudly to Deng Zhong, the general of the merchant army who was waiting very impatiently under the city:
"The people under the city, General Ben doesn't know if you are really a messenger sent by Master Wen, why don't I also open the city gate and let you in?"
Deng Zhong held up Wen Zhong's handwritten letter written on the silk book in his hand, and shouted: "There is a letter from a certain master here!
"Haha......" Ji Dan leaned over the city wall and laughed: "At such a distance, how can I see clearly, is it a letter or a blank scroll of brocade silk in your hand?"
Deng Zhong roared unhappily: "If you don't believe it, you can personally open the city gate and go out of the city, go to a certain horse, and see the seal of this letter." Naturally, I knew that it was a letter from Master Wen. ”
Ji Dan continued to trick Deng Zhong and shouted: "From a distance, the general is burly and brave, how dare I open the city gate and go out of the city in person, or send my men out of the city?"
Looking at General Deng's bravery, only the city gate is open, and with you alone, general, my southern city may not be protected. ”
Deng Zhong roared impatiently: "You don't let a certain person enter the city, and you don't go out of the city." Then how can we identify that the letter in someone's hand is from my family's Wen Taishi?"
Ji Dan looked serious and shouted loudly: "General Deng, why don't you do this?"
I asked my men to tie baskets with long ropes and put them under the city.
General Deng, put the letters in your hand into the basket, and then I will order my sergeants to lift the basket to the city.
I finished appraising the letter, and it was really written by Wen Taishi to my general, so I returned the original thing, opened the city gate, and let General Deng enter to see my general.
So, okay?"
