I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 509 Chapter 599 600 Fighting wits!Zhao Yang and Fan Yang
Shu Niu looked around, but found nothing unusual, and Duan Muci seemed to have been sleeping all the time.

Fan Yang looked around again, then said with a smile:
"Hehe, your envoy was shocked. I happened to be passing by during my tour of the camp, so I came here to see if your envoy is still sleeping soundly?"

Duan Muci quickly said:
"So that's how it is! The Chinese army is so valuable as the minister of a country, and he actually patrolled the camp in person. It can be said that he is doing it himself! Our country of Lu is hopeful!"

Fan Yang heard his rainbow flattery, but he was not moved. He put away his smile and said:
"Since you are all right, then... I will not disturb your envoy's rest. In the morning of tomorrow, please return to your envoy quickly!"

Fan Yang didn't wait for Duanmuci to reply, he turned and left directly.

And Shu Niu followed closely beside Fan Yang. When the two returned to their camp, Shu Niu spoke first:

"My lord! This matter is extremely strange! I'm afraid this kid can't be released!"

Fan Yang sighed for a moment, then shook his head.

"Staying here may be a disaster! Besides, if I detain the envoy of the Lu Kingdom for no reason, it will be unjustifiable after all. Now it is a time of troubles, so there is no need to spoil the plan for a single person!"

Shu Niu naturally understood this truth, he walked back and forth a few steps, and after thinking for a while, he continued:
"My lord's words are not unreasonable, but... if you don't detain him, you can't know what they intend to do?! This person must have gone to Zhaoying just now. I'm afraid... there is no doubt about it! "

Fan Yang thought while listening, and nodded slowly:

"Well...forget it! After all, Zhao Yang still has my many eyes and ears, and his every move must not escape my eyes! Just make arrangements and let them pay more attention these few days!"

"Zhao Yang...will definitely take action!"

Only heard Shu Niu bowed his body and replied:
"promise!"

……

The next day, Zhao's camp in the state of Jin.

Early in the morning, a shocking melon suddenly appeared in Zhao's camp!

It turned out that because Zhao Yang was caught in the cold by accident and couldn't get up to train in the morning, he let Crown Prince Kuaikui do it for him!
This time, Kuai Kui, who was originally hidden by Zhao Yang's side, was suddenly exposed to the public!

The news spread quickly, and Fan Yang couldn't help feeling a headache after learning about it!
Just at this time, Duanmuci came to say goodbye again.

At this time, Fan Yang was not interested in him at all. After sending Duanmuci away in a hurry, he wondered if it was Duanmuci's fault behind it?

Not long after, Zhao Yang sent Dong Anyu again.

Dong An came here on purpose to inform Fan Yang that they were about to conscript Handan.

This time, Fan Yang suddenly encountered difficulties again.

The reason why Fan Yang asked the Zhao family to crusade against the state of Wei before, how did he not know that Zhao Yang would definitely not fight against the state of Wei?

And it is precisely because of Fan Yang's insight into the subtleties of this that he intends to use Wei Guo to restrain Zhao Yang.

But now, the sudden appearance of Wei Prince Kuaikui, and Zhao Yang's sudden conscription to Handan.

This series of actions undoubtedly proves that the current situation may be developing in another direction that he does not want:
Perhaps Zhao Yang would take this opportunity to weaken the power of the Zhao family in Handan on the one hand, and on the other hand, he could take this opportunity to justifiably conquer Weiguo and use it to interfere in Wei's internal affairs!

After Fan Yang thought about it, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and pretended to be very disdainful and replied:
"There are only a few thousand soldiers in Handan, and less than a hundred chariots, so what can be done? If Father Zhi really wants to, go to Jinyang and send troops to come!"

I only heard Dong Anyu still say respectfully:

"War together, Japan wastes thousands of dollars, and the opportunity for war is fleeting. Jinyang is too far away, I am afraid that the distance will not be able to resolve the immediate emergency! What's more, Handan was originally the fiefdom of my Zhao family, and now let it go It is also right to come to serve the country.”

Fan Yang thought for a while.

Indeed, Zhao Yang's request is indeed reasonable.

Moreover, Handan originally belonged to the Zhao family in name.And Zhao Yang, as the suzerain of the Zhao family, could have even bypassed Fan Yang directly.

But now, Zhao Yang told him about it first, which can be regarded as giving Fan Yang enough face as the commander-in-chief of the three armies.

At the same time, Fan Yang was actually thrown a difficult problem:
After all, the Zhao family in Handan is a large town in the Jindong Group.Nai has always been the object that Fan Yang has been trying to win over in recent years.

Therefore, if Fan Yang agreed, it would be tantamount to offending the Handan Zhao family.But if he doesn't agree, it's morally untenable.

Seeing that Fan Yang was smiling, he didn't comment, he just waved his hands and replied:
"I already know about this matter, you should step back!"

Of course Dong Anyu knew that this was actually Fan Yang's plan to delay the attack.

Therefore, Dong Anyu continued to say calmly:
"The head of the family has entrusted me with this, and I hope that my lord can give me an answer to this!"

Fan Yang pursed his lips and said:
"Let Benqing think about it for a few hours, isn't that too much?"

Dong Anyu heard the words, but he was not in a hurry, bowed his hands and said:
"Then please consider it carefully, my lord. Later today, the villain will come to visit me again."

After Dong Anyu finished speaking, he bowed and left the tent.

Fan Yang, on the other hand, pressed the case with one hand, and tapped the sides of the case with his index finger, thinking about this issue very anxiously.

At this time, Shu Niu finally came back.

Shu Niu happened to meet Dong Anyu, and the two only met each other once.

When Shu Niu entered the big tent, Fan Yang stood up immediately when he saw him:
"Shu Niu, what's the situation at Zhao Yang's side?"

Shu Niu leaned forward and whispered to him:
"According to the details, Zhao Yang has been following Dong An since yesterday and has been inseparable. Moreover, they always clear their surroundings before discussing matters together, so others have no way of knowing what they are plotting!"

"But early this morning, I don't know where the news came from the military camp, saying that Kuaikui, the crown prince of Wei, is now in the Zhao family's camp! What's more strange is that, according to common sense, the Zhao family If Kuai Kui was taken in secretly, this matter should be kept secret, but for some reason today, it was suddenly exposed with great fanfare!"

"By the way, when Shu Niu came back just now, he saw that Dong Anyu also came? But I don't know why he came here this time?"

After hearing this, Fan Yang was silent for a while, and then said:

"That Dong Anyu just came to look for Ben Qing. He said that the Zhao family wanted to conscript in Handan, thinking that they were preparing for military service..."

Hearing the words, Shu Niu couldn't help but wonder:
"Oh? Why did they suddenly make this request?"

"The Handan family and the Zhao family's Dazong have long been in harmony, and Zhao Yang should be well aware of this. This move... I'm afraid it's an opportunity to weaken Handan's strength!"

"And... the sudden appearance of Prince Wei Kuai Kui, is it just a coincidence?"

When Shu Niu heard the words, his brain turned sharply, and he immediately wanted to understand the key point, only to hear him say immediately:
"Then Duanmu Ci has left?"

But seeing Fan Yang nodded slowly.The vertical bull groaned inwardly.

Originally wanted Fan Yang to send troops to chase after him, but after thinking about it, it was obvious that this move was meaningless, so Shu Niu had no choice but to say:
"This Duanmu Ci must have made this conspiracy with them yesterday! They want to recruit troops from Handan and ask them to act as pawns. If they really defeat Wei, they can send Kuai Kui back to Wei! If so! In this way, this is not just as simple as the weakening of Handan's strength!"

Fan Yang's pupils couldn't help shrinking.

"That's right, Marquis Wei is now over half a hundred years old. If Kuai Kui is sent back to the state of Wei by the Zhao family and ascends the throne in the future, wouldn't he just want to make friends with the Zhao family? This... is absolutely impossible! "

The vertical cow nodded:

"Furthermore... Marquis Wei's wife, Nan Zi, is with us. If Kuai Kui returns to the state of Wei, Nan Zi will not be able to control him! Therefore, we must prevent Zhao Yang from conscripting Handan!"

Fan Yang sighed again:
"It's just... Handan is Zhao's Xiaozong after all, and it's only natural for Xiaozong to obey Dazong's orders. How...how should we interfere?"

The vertical cow laughed and said:

"Hehe, what's so difficult about this? My lord is now the Marshal of the Central Army of the Jin Kingdom, so it should be up to you to decide whether to increase the number of troops!"

Fan Yang squinted, nodded slightly and replied:

"Well... that's true!"

To say that this Fan Yang is definitely not a kind person!As a person, he will never hesitate to do things that he has already made up his mind about!Fan Yang was originally a vigorous and resolute person who said what he said.

Just like during the Luanying Rebellion, Wei Shu wanted to remain neutral.But Fan Yang, who was not yet the suzerain of the Fan family at that time, rushed to Wei Shu, who was still his elder, with lightning speed, and directly hijacked him, and finally calmed down with this Luan Ying Rebellion.

Therefore, if it is said that it is on weekdays, maybe Fan Yang will more or less leave Zhao Yang a bit of a bad face.

However, at this critical moment that may determine the victory or defeat of the enemy and us, any cruel thing is nothing to him!

Soon, two hours later, Zhao Yang came to discuss with Fan Yang in person.

When he mentioned the matter of increasing troops again, Fan Yang still replied firmly with him:
"In this expedition, the enemy of our Jin State is Qi State, so our Jin State is a three-armed movement! It is absolutely more than enough to deal with the Wei State here, and Zhifu also does not need to spend a lot of trouble from Handan. Conscript, Zhifu now only needs to feel at ease here in Xutu!"

And Zhao Yang was not surprised by Fan Yang's answer, he just said:
"If that's the case, there is no guarantee that Martingale will be able to easily win the battle with Weiguo..."

Unexpectedly, Fan Yang waved his hand:
"Hehe, Father Zhi just needs to be at ease. This time you are confronting Weiguo, don't seek quick victory, but undefeated! If you can make the guards surrender, that would be great, but if you can't, Haha, it’s okay too!”

-

Chapter 600
Fan Yang's prevarication only made Zhao Yang withdraw from Fan Yang's tent rather "helplessly".

Zhao Yang first returned to his camp.

Dong Anyu couldn't help but smile when he learned that Fan Yang really rejected Zhao's conscript in Handan:
"Hehe, Mr. Ziming is really good at predicting things! Then now, we can start the peace talks with Weiguo!"

However, Zhao Yang still has some doubts:

"It's just... about the peace talks with Weiguo, why does Ben Qing feel a little uneasy in his heart?..."

But Dong Anyu was very confident about this, and said disapprovingly:
"Since it's all under Mr. Ziming's calculations, my lord can rest assured!"

Zhao Yang couldn't help but nodded when he heard the words:
"Hmm... alright! Now that's the case, order the entire army to make full preparations tonight, and send troops to defend the country tomorrow morning!"

……

Hearing that Zhao Yang finally set off, Fan Yang also came here to see him off.

When Fan Yang watched the army led by Zhao Yang raise a cloud of dust, he couldn't help asking the vertical cow beside him:
"She Tuo and Cheng He, have you both explained to them?"

But the vertical cow smiled badly and said:
"Don't worry, my lord, if they are placed beside Zhao Yang, they will definitely disrupt all of Zhao Yang's actions!"

Fan Yang nodded reassuringly and said:

"Well... that's good, we must not let Mrs. Zhao easily withdraw from this battle!"

The vertical cow responded:

"Everything is going according to our plan now, and no matter how they overwhelm the river and the sea, the master's planning will definitely go smoothly! They...hehe, they are just doing nothing!"

Fan Yang couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this!
"Cough! Cough!..."

But immediately, Fan Yang became short of breath and coughed repeatedly.

But even so, Fan Yang was still in a good mood.He turned around and went back to the camp, but his walking seemed rather slow.

He is old, and his body is getting worse day by day.However, he has never lost half of his "majestic plans" for himself!
……

Only marched for two days

Zhao Yang led the army to the border of Wei State.And he chose to stop the march outside the Huan Ze.

At this time, Tan Ma came to report that in order to resist the army of the Jin State, Weihou chose to conquer in person regardless of his old age.

Zhao Yang thought about it for a long time, and decided to get a letter first, expressing his willingness to have an alliance with Marquis Wei to discuss peace talks.

Although the state of Jin is incomparable to the past, the state of Wei does not want to be an enemy of the state of Jin.

Since both parties have no intention of tearing their skins apart, there must be something to talk about.

Therefore, as long as Fan Yang can agree, then this matter is basically inseparable.

Sure enough, after Zhao Yang ordered someone to quickly report to Fan Yang, Fan Yang was still noncommittal about it, neither agreeing nor saying no.

Zhao Yang got the answer, and he knew it well, so he immediately summoned all the retainers and staff of the Zhao family, and publicly announced the news that he wanted to approach the peace talks with Weiguo, and asked:
"Who can go to the other party's camp to discuss the oath?"

In fact, Zhao Yang had been concealing the news before, so everyone couldn't help but look at each other when they heard it, and they were all caught off guard.

At this time, I saw two people coming out, and said in unison:

"I'm waiting to go!"

Zhao Yang saw that it was She Tuo and Cheng He!These two people had been under his command for a long time, and the two of them can be regarded as eloquent people.Seeing that the two of them could handle this matter, Zhao Yang couldn't help laughing and said:

"Well, you two are very good! This peace talk is to re-establish the alliance with Wei! To prevent the two countries from losing peace, you must settle this matter!"

Cheng He said:

"Please rest assured, my lord, as long as the guards are sincere and make peace, we will surely fulfill our mission!"

Zhao Yang smiled and said:

"Hehe, Marquis Wei didn't want to be our enemy at all, so if you go here, you only need to persuade us with good words!"

She Tuo and Cheng He obeyed their orders and said in unison:
"promise!"

Zhao Yang did not suspect him, and immediately explained to the two of them.

Afterwards, he ordered the two of them to take the courtesy and sent some soldiers to follow She Tuo and Cheng He to Yanze.

Then, Zhao Yang came to Dong Anyu's tent and came to visit him.

Because in the past few days, Dong Anyu suddenly suffered from a serious illness, so that he had to lie down to recuperate.

Dong Anyu saw Zhao Yang coming to visit, but he didn't care about the small talk, and immediately asked:
"How? Who can the lord decide to negotiate with?"

Zhao Yang replied:
"It was She Tuo and Cheng He. As soon as they heard about this matter, they immediately agreed to it. It was very refreshing!"

Hearing that it was the two of them, and they agreed very frankly, Dong Anyu became a little worried:

"This matter is difficult... But the two of them agreed so readily... Could it be that there is a fraud? My lord, why don't I go in person?"

Seeing this, Zhao Yang said easily:
"You don't need to worry, these days, you have been worrying so much about it, and even got seriously ill because of it. Now that you are sick, it's better to recuperate! She Tuo and Cheng He should be able to handle it safely!"

Dong Anyu sighed and said:

"These two people have been silent on weekdays, but they have settled down in the Zhao family for many years. Ordinarily there will be no mistakes, but..."

Zhao Yang muttered for a moment:

"Yu don't need to worry too much, just rest in peace and recuperate."

However, what Zhao Yang and Dong Anyu didn't expect was that She Tuo and Cheng He were actually the ones bought by Shu Niu!

As far as Fan Yang is concerned, it can be said that he has raised soldiers for a lifetime and used them for a while!
At this time, it really came in handy.

She Tuo and Cheng He were in the carriage and went straight to Weiying.On the way, She Tuo said:

"Brother Cheng, Weiguo seems to have the intention of peace talks, which is contrary to your lord's intention. We have to mess with it! But as for how to start? I wonder if Brother Cheng has an idea?"

Cheng He smiled confidently:
"Hehe, what's so difficult about this matter? You just need to make some moves in terms of etiquette. I've heard that Marquis Wei is the best at saving face. If you can anger Marquis Wei with this, then everything can be easily solved!"

……

The two discussed it all the way.

When the two of them arrived at Dewei Camp, Wei Houyuan also attached great importance to the peace talks, and actually chose to meet them at the gate in person.

It is obvious that Wei Hougui is the king of a country, but he stooped to meet two high officials who were not even high officials.It is true that Wei Houyuan is not insincere.

But She Tuo and Cheng He didn't do anything disrespectful at this juncture.

After welcoming the two of them into the camp, Wei Houyuan also got straight to the point, directly discussing the oath of alliance with the two of them.

And She Tuo and Cheng He still didn't make things difficult on purpose, so everything went smoothly.

In less than a day, the two parties have drawn up the oath, and the oath can be made on the spot in the next day.

……

If so, a few more days passed, and when Marquis Wei ordered people to arrange the utensils and sacrifices on the scene of the oath, he ordered people to invite She Tuo and Cheng He to participate in the oath, so that they could be Jin representative of the country.

I saw the master of ceremonies of Weiguo ordered someone to bring a cow first, bring it to the front of the two of them, and said:

"Two adults, please come forward and be the leader..."

However, at this moment, She Tuo and Cheng He looked at each other and did not move at all!
According to the rituals of the alliance, the oath of blood requires the cutting of the cow's ear for blood.The second alliance holds the bull's ear, and the venerable cuts off the cow's ear and drips blood to dominate the second alliance.

Marquis of Wei swore an alliance with Doctor Jin, Marquis of Wei had a noble status, and he thought he was the leader, but it was really normal for She Tuo and Cheng He to be the leaders.

Seeing that they hadn't moved, the master of ceremonies couldn't help being a little stunned.

At this time, Cheng He was actually quite disdainful and said:
"Weiguo is only the size of our two counties, Wen and Yuan, so can it be considered a vassal?"

As soon as this remark came out, all the Wei people present were angry, and Wang Sunjia, the doctor of Wei, swallowed his anger and said:
"There are so many vassals in the world! They are not distinguished by the size of the country! Our country of Wei is a marquis country conferred by the emperor! The title is equal to that of your Jin marquis. Since you are the status of the Jin country, why do you say so?" raving?!"

"What exactly do you intend to do? Didn't you come here to negotiate peace with sincerity?"

When She Tuo heard the words, he laughed and said:
"Since we came here alone, it is natural to have a sincere peace talk. Is there any doubt about this?"

Wang Sunjia scolded again:

"Since it's a sincere peace talk, why is it difficult to say something? You can still say such rude words? Have you lived in Beidi for a long time, and have you forgotten my Ji Zhou's etiquette?!"
