I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 356

After preparing for more than half a month, everything is finally ready.

However, in order not to cause unnecessary disputes.In the end, Li Ran decided to use only [-] elite refugees to form an army to challenge Zheng Yi.And after erecting the banner of "the side of the Qing emperor", Sun Wu ruled the three armies, while Li Ran was in charge of the central army.

Ye Yi's original garrison was only one thousand, and he thought it was the queen.

The reason for this is mainly to avoid being reported by Zheng Guo as "Chu people invaded Zheng", thus directly raising the dispute to the international level.

Because no matter how you say it, Ye Yi is still a city of Chu State, not Li Ran's private city.

I saw that these 5000 people were marching towards Zhengyi in a mighty way.

Fan Li asked Ying again, willing to accompany Li Ran with the army, Li Ran naturally would not refuse.

Therefore, Fan Li was appointed as Che Zuo, while Chu Dang was appointed as Che's Right.

Ye Xu, on the other hand, acted as the acting county governor, and continued to stay in Yeyi to take care of the safety of the female family members.

As for Zheng Guo, once he heard the news, it can be said that the whole country was shocked.

Zheng Boning immediately summoned Feng Duan, and Feng Duan naturally knew why the King was in such a hurry to summon him.

"Your Majesty, don't panic. I have already made inquiries. The people led by Li Ran are only three or four thousand. And the journey is exhausting, and they came all the way from Yeyi, Chu State. We only need to wait for work at leisure, and we can get a lot of money." success!"

After hearing this, Zheng Boning calmed down a bit and heaved a sigh of relief:
"In your opinion, who in our country of Zheng can take on the task of defending against the enemy?"

"The minister thought that the son of the Si belt, the son of the Si Si, should be able to take on this important task!"

This four-year-old, because of his admiration for martial arts and combativeness, and his fondness for reading the art of war, spent all day in the ranks of the army.Therefore, he has quite a reputation in the army.

Therefore, Zheng Boning immediately summoned Sima.

After four years of going up to the main hall, after some courtesies for the emperor and ministers, Zheng Boning said directly:
"Hey, right now that Li Ran is about to cause trouble, he gathers thieves to kill me and come to Zhengyi, it is really treasonous! Now I will appoint you as the Sima of the left army, and immediately lead the enemy! I hope you can live up to the hope of the widow! "

Si Si hesitated for a moment, then fell down on the ground and kowtowed to thank:

"Here!"

When Feng Duan came out of the main hall, on the way back to the mansion, he encountered a vertical bull blocking the way again.He naturally also learned that Li Ran was rushing here in the name of the Qing emperor.And this, of course, must involve him!

Feng Duan took him back to the mansion, and comforted him for his good life.

"Li Ran is only a few thousand people, and most of them are refugees who have only practiced for a month or two. What kind of spirit is there? You have always been bold, Shuniu, why have you become so timid today?"

"Lord Boshi, this matter has nothing to do with cowardice. It's just because Li Ran is full of tricks. Even though there are few people, there is always an eventuality. This event... If that guy succeeds, then what about our efforts? Is it not in vain? Did Lord Boshi forget the matter of sealing and controlling the epidemic back then? Please, Lord Boshi, must pay attention to this matter!"

In fact, since Shu Niu lost to Li Ran in Zheng State last time and escaped from Zheng State, he also caused a bloody storm in Lu State.

However, in the end, it was the most inconspicuous son, Shusun Ruo, who turned the tide, so that his plan to take over the uncles and Sun's family fell short in the end.

And after he returned to Zheng country this time, what he planned was really smooth.Only by relying on the "Four Kingdoms Fire" that he directly participated in planning, all the Jishi's family business became his pocket, and Dr. Zichan was also criticized by the government and the public for "disrespecting heaven". been criticized so far.

Such a Tianhu start, so Shuniu doesn't want to experience another failure here.

Feng Duan naturally knew Li Ran's ability, but he still thought that Li Ran was short of manpower, so it was really difficult to make any big waves.

And now Zheng Guo, since he successfully brought down Zichan, the entire government and the public have been under his control.As a result, a kind of blind self-confidence arises spontaneously.

"The old man has asked Uncle Zheng to send four to resist Li Ran, you don't have to be so panicked!"

"It's just... Dr. Ziran is so young, he might not be Li Ran's opponent!"

"Hey! Are you scared by Li Ran?! He doesn't have three heads and six arms! I have tens of thousands of troops in Zhengyi, and they have a few thousand troops. What's the point? Well, these few days you just Just stay at Jishi's house!"

Shu Niu pursed his lips, finally sighed helplessly, and left Fengduan's mansion.

It's not that Feng Duan doesn't believe in Li Ran's methods and abilities, he's just too confident.

Think that Zichan is not his defeated opponent in the end?Just because of him, Li Ran?What can be done?

When Feng Duan thought of this, he couldn't help but let out a cold snort.

……

Si Si took office, and the first thing he did was to reorganize the three armies and call the people in the city to come and enlist in the camp.

Unexpectedly, when these Chinese people learned that they were going to fight against Li Ran, they secretly resisted and tried their best not to go.

And in order to achieve this goal, these Chinese people can be said to do everything possible, finding all kinds of reasons to evade and obstruct.

Some pretended to be sick at home, some had accidents at home, and some even went missing directly.

Because of these people, what they see on a daily basis is the bleakness inside and outside Zhengyi since Dr. Zichan was resigned by Feng Duan and others, but how can there be any fireworks?
Therefore, deep in their hearts, they have long hated the current court, who would work for them?

yes!Who doesn't miss the No. [-] commercial city in the world that was crowded with people, busy with traffic, and harmonious with the countryside?
As a result, nearly [-] Chinese people should have been registered, but in the end, only less than [-] people came to report.

In addition, most of the original standing army in Zhengyi, including its generals, expressed that they only wanted to stay in the city to take care of the city, and they did not want to lead troops to meet the enemy.

In the end, Si Lu had no choice but to take 8000 people out of the city.

As a result, the two armies lined up and faced off in the suburbs of Zhengyi.

Sun Wu had already ordered people to prepare the chariot, and the three halberds were distributed to several strong men, and after the battle started, they swung and swept across the chariot.

However, as an international practice of "beginning with etiquette before fighting", they did not rush to do it, but waited and watched first.

Sima also knows Li Ran's name, and even more deeply knows Li Ran's influence in Zheng Guo.He was actually thinking about how to deal with it.

no fight!It is infidelity, fight!It is injustice!

Si Si finally decided and had a chat with Li Ran before the battle.

Therefore, he led the army first and then retreated ten miles to camp.

Li Ran was not in a hurry when he saw that Sima led the troops back first. He also ordered the army to withdraw ten li and set up camp to show "great righteousness".

On the side of Si Lu, another envoy was sent to Li Ran's camp.

Li Ran also solemnly entertained the envoy.

"Lord Sima specially ordered a villain to come forward to spread the message. At noon tomorrow, Lord Sima hopes to discuss with you in front of the two armies!"

Fan Li and Sun Wu both felt that this move was too risky and unnecessary.

It is true, in their view, if they really want to talk, even if Feng Duan Feng Boshi did not come forward, at least one of the six ministers should be sent.

And this four-year-old is neither the six ministers of Zheng Guo, nor can he make up his mind.That being the case, what is the point of inviting people to talk before the battle, except to increase the risk?

After hearing the opinions of the two, Li Ran was taken aback for a moment, and then said with a smile:

"Hehe, Master Ziran's move is strange, but it's not considered rude. It would be a good thing if you can just let go of the sword. Alright! Li Ran agreed!"

In this way, Li Ran readily agreed.

……

There was nothing to say all night, and it was almost noon in a blink of an eye. Li Ran left Sun Wu to take charge of the troops.According to the agreement between the two sides, each side could only bring two people with them, so he took Chu Dang and Fan Li with him and walked towards the middle of the two armies on foot.

Looking from a distance, I can see that Si Lu is also walking towards this side with the two of them.When the two sides meet, the sun is overhead, which is noon!
Four-year-old arched his hands and said:
"I'm not talented, I've met Mr. Ziming!"

Li Ran also bowed and returned the salute.

"Doctor Ziran is too polite!"

The two sides were polite for a while, and then sat down on the ground. After sitting down face to face with Li Ran, Si Ruo first opened the mouth and said:

"In the early years, I heard what Mr. Ziming did in the state of Zheng, and I admired it from the bottom of my heart. It's just that in recent years, Mr. Ziming has been serving the king of Chu, Xiongwei, regardless of the interests of the state of Zheng and the world. This move is really meaningful. Damn your reputation! I have heard that even Dr. Zichan has some complaints about this, right?!"

Coming up this time, Si Si didn't mention Li Ran's "instigating troops to cause chaos" this time, but instead talked about what he did in Chu State, obviously he came prepared.

Li Ran smiled lightly when he heard this.

"Hehe, it is true that he has made many plans for the state of Chu over the years, but it is by no means disregarding the interests of the state of Zheng and the whole world. What Dr. Ziran said is absurd."

"I think that since I, Li, went to Chu State, Chu State has stopped advancing northward and dominated eastward. In ten years, how has there been more than half of Zheng State? As for the two states of Chen and Cai, they are all their own. Take the blame, even if Li is not around, the disaster will not be spared. If the adults want to use this to blame Li, it will be wronged Li."

"As for Dr. Zichan, Li and Dr. Zichan are both teachers and friends. Since Li respects Dr. Zichan as his elder, it is only natural that he accepts his admonition."

As far as lip service is concerned, Si Lu is indeed a little tender.Even if Li Ran wasn't there to quote the scriptures, he was a little overwhelmed by just talking about these simple truths.

Therefore, he can only talk about things from another angle:

"But... but what Mr. Ziming did in Chu State, is it considered an injustice? Is the current situation of Chu State also thanks to Mr.? Could it be that Mr. Chu is planning to disturb Chu State? Will you disturb our country of Zheng again?"

Four-year-old's mouth is unobstructed, the cannonball is continuous, and the voice is aggressive.And his remarks, it has to be said, hit the nail on the head.

Li Ran still looked calm, and said softly:
"Hehe, Master Ziran only knows one thing, but not the other! This statement seems to be reasonable, but in fact it is just messing around!"
