I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 339 Chapter 393 Chapter 394 The Art of Retreat

After An Ran returned to the camp, Yu Ji summoned him immediately after hearing this.In fact, it was beyond everyone's expectation that his concubine brother could come back alive. )
According to their understanding of the Chu people, even if they don't kill him, they should detain him!
"Brother worked hard all the way!"

Yu Ji welcomes him to the front of the tent.

He hurried forward and bowed deeply.

"Thanks to Brother Wang, my subject did not disgrace his mission and was able to return smoothly!"

Yu Ji stepped forward to help him up, and walked towards the big tent together with Yu You's hand.

"Come on, tell me about the situation at Chuying!"

So, the two entered the tent, Yi Mei and Young Master Guang also followed in, and the four sat on the ground.

"66 When my younger brother first entered the Chu camp, the Chu people were rude, and his younger brother was directly tied up, and the king of Chu directly said that he wanted to kill his younger brother as a sacrifice to the army drum..."

Qi You recounted in detail what happened to him in Chu Ying.After hearing this, Yu Ji, the king of Wu, burst into a rage:

"Hmph! The Chu thieves are really hateful! They are now in the possession of my country of Wu, but they dare to be so arrogant. Are they really deceiving no one in my country of Wu?"

"Guanger!"

Young Master Guang leaned over and said:

"The minister is here!"

"You just order [-] troops, and go to fight! The widow will come to meet you later! If Guang'er can win, he will be the first! If you can't win, the widow will come to help you!"

"Here!"

Seeing that the young master was about to leave the tent as soon as he stood upright, Ji You immediately stood up and stopped him:

"Wait a minute!"

Young Master Guang looked at Kai You strangely, and Wu Wang Yu Ji was also a little unexpected, because he was always low-key and calm, and he didn't talk much in the military camp, but now he directly prevented him from giving this order.

"Brother Wang! Chu is strong and Wu is weak. Now the Chu army is on the verge of death! If we rush to fight, our army may suffer a big loss."

Wu Wang Yu Ji heard the words, walked back and forth a few steps before the case, and asked very annoyed:

"The meaning of Yi Kui You is that it means that the widows should withdraw their troops at this point?"

With a sigh, he said:

"Your Majesty, Li Ran and Sun Wu are both in the camp of Chu right now. If we act rashly, it will be disadvantageous to the army. Moreover, according to the observations, it seems that Changshou Guo of the Yue Kingdom is also among them. The combination of Chu and Yue is not what we are now. I can bear it! I hope the king will think twice!"

Yu Ji paced back and forth again for a while, but remained silent for a long time, while Young Master Guang was a little impatient as he stood by the tent.

"The enemy is right in front of you, how can you give up so lightly? Your Majesty must not be intimidated by the bluff of the Chu army! Uncle Wang, you just give orders, and you will be able to make great achievements in driving the bears around and capturing Sun and Li. Waiting for others, offer it to the king's account! The sword."

"No, the names of Li Ran and Sun Wu are famous all over the world. Don't be careless. Besides, the Chu army has been sending reinforcements recently. They are definitely not the people who dig a well when they are thirsty. We must not underestimate the enemy and rush forward. This is a big taboo for military strategists. what!"

"Hmph! The big taboo of military strategists is not only this one, looking ahead and looking backward, and being indecisive, isn't it also a cocoon?"

Young Master Guang and Qi You both argued with reason and refused to give in.For a while, King Wu Yu Ji didn't know who to listen to.

At this time, Yi Mei stood up again and said:
"Brother Wang, my brother also has a word."

"Well, let's talk, brother."

"Your Majesty, the purpose of our coming here is to resist Xiongwei's [-] troops. Secondly, we are waiting for the opportunity to chase Xiongwei to Cai Guo, so as to cause a dispute between their brothers. But right now, if Xiongwei can't reach Cai Di, could it be that Prince Qiji won't do anything?"

Yu Ji raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.

"Oh? Uncle, please tell me more?"

"Hehe, since the two of them are not on good terms with each other, and it is known to all passers-by now, in this case, it is better to just let Xiong Wei go. Xiong Wei lost a hundred thousand teachers from Chu today. How could Prince Qiji let go of such a good opportunity? At that time, there will be bloody storms in their Chu Kingdom, and we will just watch the fun! Hehe, this is a plan to 'drive away tigers and devour wolves'!"

Hearing this, Yu Ji couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing loudly:
"Okay! Wonderful! Wonderful! Now that Xiongwei was defeated in the Wu Kingdom, and Xiong Qiji didn't come to rescue him in time, even if he didn't want to rebel now, it's absolutely impossible! If Xiongwei recovers, He will definitely liquidate and retaliate against him! Therefore, Xiong Qiji can be said to be on the verge of riding a tiger, and he has no choice but to reverse!"

"Exactly! If he wants to rebel sooner or later, then why should we worry? The chaos in Chu State will be our Wu State's opportunity at that time! When the time comes, we will raise troops to attack again. Don't say that we can regain all the lost land. I'm afraid It is also easy to expand the land and swallow the territory!"

Yi Mo's words made all the people at the scene suddenly enlightened. They just felt that letting go of Xiongwei and retreating as an advance would be beneficial to the Wu State.

So as far as the Chu army is concerned, whether they can resist them is actually not important anymore.

Therefore, under Yu Ji's order, the Wu army quickly set up camp and retreated in an orderly manner.The advance and follow-up matters were all in order, without any stop, and they retreated for thirty miles.

The spies of the Chu army came to report and learned that the Wu army had withdrawn. Li Ran couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time he was also worried about what the king of Chu should do next.

The defeat of King Xiongwei of Chu this time, although it is not likely to cause people to betray their relatives, but after all, the decline has already begun.Across the state of Chu, there are very few buddies who still support him.

Moreover, everyone in the Chu Kingdom knew that although Prince Qiji hadn't made it clear that he had turned his back, his intentions had already been revealed, and it was inevitable that the two brothers would turn against each other.

At this moment, the prince Qiji definitely does not want the king of Chu to go back alive, so he is bound to have another action.

It is not suitable to stay in the Wu state for a long time, so Li Ran ordered Wei Yin Yijiu to retreat all the way to Xia Ne before stopping to rest. No going out in the tent.

Li Ran was also relieved to be able to rest in Shane, and then asked to meet the King of Chu.

After hearing the servant's report, the King of Chu was silent for a long time, and then he said:

"Let him in!"

When Li Ran entered the camp, he saw the king of Chu with bare feet, disheveled clothes, and a sad face. The wine jars beside him were extremely messy. Seeing Li Ran coming in, he pretended to be calm.

"Ziming, what's the situation in Yingdu now?"

Li Ran cupped his hands and said:
"My lord, right now the fourth prince has ordered all the places to block the news on the grounds that 'the Chu army has been defeated and it is not appropriate to make a public announcement'. Therefore, no news has come out yet. How is the situation in Yingdu? Not yet known! 55."

When the King of Chu heard this, he couldn't help feeling anxious:
"Qiji... Will Qiji harm the princes?! Will he seek power and usurp the throne? Is the widow unable to go back?"

Li Ran only pursed his lips, but did not answer.

Then the king of Chu said:

"The widow's soldiers and horses are now incomplete, and the luggage is completely destroyed. Even if all the soldiers from Zhongli, Chen Guo and other places are gathered together, they are only [-] to [-]. How can we blame the abandoned illnesses that now have tens of thousands of troops? ...I'm afraid this time there is really no way out!"

"Your Majesty, be at ease. At present, Duke Jiao, You Yin, and Shen County Yin are all around Wang Jia. We only need to regroup, and there is still a chance to do something!"

Hearing this, the king of Chu heaved a long sigh.

"It's an opportunity? Qiji has a heavy army in his hand, and now he has made it clear that he wants to put the widow to death. If the widow wants to regroup, it will be easier said than done..."

"Your Majesty is the king of Chu after all, and it is impossible for the four princes to make things so obvious for a while. Your Majesty can use Zhongli and Qunshu as bases to make a comeback. If you want Zhongli and Qunshu to echo each other, you can temporarily plan your country. ..."

But the King of Chu was upset at this time, he couldn't listen to it at all, he just raised a can of wine and drank it, and the wine spilled all over his body.

Chapter 394 Final entrustment.

Seeing the king of Chu like this, Li Ran was helpless.

The King of Chu drank half a can of wine, but suddenly burst out laughing:

"Hahaha! Ziming! I'm defeated by the widow, do you think it will be ridiculed by the world?! I mistakenly believe in villains, and will I be ridiculed by future generations? This defeat of the widow...wasted all previous efforts, which can be said Ruin! Ruin!"

"Your Majesty, you must not be discouraged by a small defeat! In the past, when King Zhuang succeeded to the throne, Young Master Xie and Young Master Yi conspired to cause chaos. It's a complete defeat!"

"However, in just three years, King Zhuang can still make a big splash, put an end to civil strife, attack mediocrity and destroy Xiao, until he drinks the horses of the Yellow River, aspires to the top of the Central Plains, and becomes the overlord of a generation! With such a precedent, why should the king worry about himself?"

When the King of Chu heard the words, he only smiled drunkenly and said:
"Hehe, 'If you don't make a song, it's a blockbuster'! This matter should be known to everyone, but it's different now, how can it be compared?! Now that I can't even go back to Ying, how can I make a blockbuster?! Hey... Perhaps this is the retribution of the widow! The widow knows that there are many people who are wrong, and it is their own fault to get into such a field..."

"Your Majesty must not think like this. Back then, Duke Huan of Qi still had three major problems, and he could also dominate the world. You don't have to be so disheartened." The third is lustful, and once it arises, you can't put it down, forgetting time, and delaying political affairs.)
"Guan Zhong once said: 'It is impossible for a king to be superior and insensitive, and the superior will kill the people, and the insensitive will not be in time'. And the king is neither indecisive nor indecisive, but also diligent in political affairs. Although there are occasional mistakes, he is So why not?" (The literal translation of the ancient text: The king of a country can only be indecisive and not diligent. If you are indecisive, no one will work for you, and you will not be able to accomplish anything if you don't work hard.)
The reason why Li Ran said this was obviously to make Chu Wang Xiongwei regain his strength.Because Li Ran is very aware of how dangerous the Chu king's situation is now.

If the king of Chu continues to be so decadent, all the people around him will be gone, and it will really be a catastrophe.

However, at this time, the King of Chu was still disheartened and depressed. He thought of the shabby scenery before, and compared Li Ran with Duke Huan of Qi, Guan Zhong.

The king of Chu knew that everything could not go back.

"Ziming! At that time, the widow was thirsty for talent, but you refused to allow it. Later, I promised the widow three strategies. Now that the three things have been completed, you can go back to the state of Zheng now, and you can do it!"

After the King of Chu finished speaking, he turned sideways again and only waved his hand.

Li Ran sighed inwardly, and said loudly:

"My lord! There is a turning point in everything, I hope your lord will keep it in mind!"

Li Ran bowed his hands to the King of Chu and left the camp.

The effect of this conversation is not very clear, but Li Ran has already told the whole story. As for whether the King of Chu can listen to it, Li Ran has no choice.

That night, from Zheng Guo's side, Owl Wing flew over with an urgent message. Li Ran unfolded the cloth, and saw that it wrote: "The sacrifice family will fall, return quickly!"

The short six words made Li Ran panic again. He had already guessed that Chu State was in chaos now, and Zheng Guo would definitely have trouble again.What he didn't expect was that all this would come so quickly.

When he cared about it for a while, he became confused, and he immediately cared about the safety of Jiyue.Since "Ji's family is about to fall", it is obvious that Ji Le may not be alone! Moreover, Ji Le is pregnant, so if there is such a change, what if something goes wrong.

The more Li Ran thought about it, the more anxious he became, wishing he could rush back to Zheng Guo immediately.

But after thinking about it, it was late at night and we were in a dangerous situation. If we set off recklessly, there might be another accident.

After finally surviving until dawn, Li Ran came to King Chu's camp again, and asked the servants to report, saying that now that something happened suddenly in Zheng Guo, he wanted to rush back immediately.

The servant went in for a while, then came back and replied:

"Your Majesty said that if you want to stay, you can stay, and if you want to go, you don't need to report again."

Hearing this, Li Ran was stunned for a while, sighed secretly, walked straight to the door of the tent, bowed in the direction of the tent, and prostrated himself on the ground.

Li Ran's obeisance seemed extremely solemn.But seeing him knelt down and cupped his hands to the ground, his head also touched the ground.Thinking that Li Ran has always regarded himself as a guest since he came to Chu State, so in Li Ran's impression, it should be the first time that he gave such a formal ceremony to the King of Chu like this.

While King Chu was in the tent, he also secretly looked at Li Ran outside the tent, seeing that he had given him such a big gift, but he just stared at him silently, and did not go out again.

After Li Ran finished his ceremony, he stood up and left alone, which also meant that the relationship between him and the king of Chu was broken.

But Li Ran didn't just leave.Before leaving, he still found Wu Ju, Shen Wuyu and Ran Dan.

The three of Wu Ju also knew that Li Ran was rushing back to Zheng Guo, but their crisis was still unresolved, and they still wanted to get some good advice from Li Ran, hoping to make a difference in the future.

Li Ran had something on his mind, but he didn't want to delay any longer, so he said directly to Wu Ju:
"Mr. Jiao, the Chu army is now newly defeated. If you go back like this, you may be assassinated by Prince Qiji. Now you can only do the opposite. The king of Chu can personally lead Xia Ne's army to conquer your country again. Your country has been for a long time. If you are not prepared, it may be easier to conquer! And if you can conquer it, then you can connect Zhongli, Shuqun and Chen Guo, and then use these three places as your base to fight back to Yingdu in the name of rebellion! There may still be a glimmer of life for Wang's former prestige!"

Wu Ju also nodded when he heard this.

"Mr.'s words are very true! Wu Ju actually has the same intention!"

However, Li Ran later regretted saying:

"It's a pity that Zheng Guo's situation is very urgent, and the safety of his wife and children is involved, so he has to leave. This time, there will be Mr. Laojiao!"

When Wu Ju heard this, he also bowed and said:
"It's a matter of duty, as it should be!"

"Besides, there is still one more thing to say, please listen carefully. Your Majesty is now in decline. If one day... If there is no way to recover, I hope Jiao Gong will warn the people, don't stay away from the prince and abandon his illness. Vicious and vicious, it is definitely not the case that a virtuous monarch will suffer if he approaches!"

"Don't worry, sir, since you are now an enemy of this son, you will definitely not get close to him! How can our Wu family be with such treacherous people?! Dao."

"Hey, it's just that the world is unpredictable, and I hope that adults can pay more attention in the future."

"Thank you for your kind words, sir, I understand!"

Afterwards, Li Ran looked at Shen Wuyu again, and Shen Wuyu took a step forward:
"What advice do you have, sir?"

"Wuyu... this farewell, the future is uncertain. In the future, if something unexpected happens to King Chu, I hope Wuyu can make preparations early, so that he can have a good death at that time!"

Shen Wuyu couldn't help but startled when he heard the words.

"Huh? Sir, why did you say that? Didn't the sir just say that if you can use Zhongli as your base, maybe you can make a comeback?""

Li Ran smiled wryly, but in fact it was inconvenient for him to say some things.As the saying goes, go all out, then decline, and exhaust three times.In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that, according to the current state of the King of Chu, if he wants to conquer your country again, I am afraid it is just a dream.

What's more, several sons of King Chu are still in the hands of Prince Qiji. If Prince Qiji deliberately harms him, King Chu's will will be even more depressed.In such a situation, what about a comeback?

"Wuyu doesn't need to say anymore, just do what you say!"

"Here!"

"Actually, apart from Prince Qiji, Wu's movements are also quite worrying. Now that Chu is in chaos, if Wu takes advantage of it again, it may be difficult for Chu to take advantage of the current situation." Resist! And Zhongli is here..."

In fact, Li Ran still has another level of worry, that is, based on the connection between Wu Guo and the "Dark Walkers", he is worried that the balance between himself and the Dark Walkers will also fall into a passive position because of the rise of Wu Guo.
