After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 173 The Battle of Zaki Lee
In the summer of the next year, Helu, king of Wu, led troops to fight against the state of Yue. After hearing the news, King Goujian of Yue led his troops to meet the Wu army in Quli.

At this time, Gou Jian was completely different from the little soldier in Meng Di's impression. He stared coldly at Wu Jun in front of him. After the two sides set up their positions, he ordered a small group of soldiers to attack directly.

This was a battle between the two armies, and a small group of soldiers had no effect at all. Facing this situation, Wu Jun looked at each other in blank dismay. He didn't know what happened, and even felt that Yueyue King Gou Jian's mind was not normal.

But then something that surprised them happened again. Three waves of Vietnamese soldiers launched a suicide attack on Wu Jun, which made Wu Jun feel that the Vietnamese army seemed to be preparing to end the battle in this way.

At this time, a group of people came out again. They were dressed like prisoners. These people did not attack after they arrived in front of the two armies. Pull out the weapon in between.

Then he wiped his neck directly, seeing all the misses in front of him made Wu Jun feel unbelievable, and even more terrified, as if these people were like ghosts, terrified.

Wu Wanghelu saw that the army's morale was a little fluctuating, and he felt displeased, so he immediately ordered the Wu army to attack.

At this time, King Goujian of Yue saw that the time had come, so he ordered Linggufu to lead the army to meet him. Unexpectedly, in this confrontation, the morale of the Yue army was like a rainbow. Immediately began to retreat.

He Lu originally thought that the conquest of Yue State this time would be an easy task, but he never thought that the situation in front of him would appear, so he personally supervised the battle in the rear and ordered the soldiers to fight back.

Unexpectedly, Ling Gufu was very brave, quickly broke through the formation of the Wu army, and went straight to the Chinese army.

At this time, He Lu already felt that the battle was not going well, but he didn't have the slightest fear, and went directly to the difficulties. When the two fought, Ling Gufu had a strange strength, which made He Lu feel a little powerless.

One was accidentally struck by Ling Gufu and chopped on his feet. He Lu screamed in pain and fell down in the chariot. The surrounding soldiers saw that something was wrong and quickly retreated. The Vietnamese army chased after him.

The crown prince Fu Chai simply led the troops to come in time, which forced the Vietnamese army to retreat, but now He Lu's situation is not very good, because the blood flow continued, his face became extremely pale, he held Fu Chai's hand, and bowed his head. Said loudly.

"After I die, you will be the king of Wu. I didn't expect the Vietnamese army to use tricks to win today's victory. I am very dissatisfied. Can you forget that I died at the hands of Goujian?"

After hearing this, Fu Chai knelt down and said quickly.

"I will never dare to forget my father's words today. One day in the future, I will lead people to destroy the country of Yue and avenge my father."

After hearing this, He Lu nodded in satisfaction, and he passed away before returning to He Lu City.

After getting the news, Yang Hu also heaved a sigh of relief. He had just defeated Ran Yi and entered the land of Yi Hu, because this place is bordered by the state of Wu. Meng Di repeatedly told him not to fight with the state of Wu conflict.

So Yang Hu kept it in mind, now that King Helu of Wu was defeated and died, the country of Wu should not fight abroad in a short period of time, and the main energy should be put on the crossing, which gave him a lot of time.

Afterwards, Yang Hu decided to capture the thief first and the king first, and directly led the troops to attack Ling Da's troops. At this time, Ling Da had already got the news that he had defeated Ran Yi, so naturally he was very afraid and did not dare to fight head-on.

So the two parties began to enter into a stalemate. In the end, Bai Gui spent a lot of money and bought off many tribes. With their help, Yang Hu broke Lingda and decapitated him to show the public, which was used to frighten all the local tribes. tribe.

At this time, the power of Bai Gui's previous arrangements showed. Many tribes took the initiative to vote. In a short period of time, Yang Hu took control of the situation. At this point, he did not expand outward again, but It is to start shrinking the line of defense.

Both Pixian County and Zhongwu here are already within the sphere of influence of Wu State, so Yang Hu destroyed Tan State and entrenched in Tan City, while strengthening protection, while paying attention to Wu State's movements.

At this time, Meng Di had already arrived at the port next to Huai City, because this time the prince was coming.

During this period of time, Yi Dun used various relationships to buy many disciples from the four major families, and through the lure of interests, most of the members of the four major families have been controlled by him.

After the prince went ashore, his face was very ugly. He was obviously not used to sailing at sea, but after he disembarked, he couldn't help being startled when he saw the cavalry and infantry in front of him with high morale.

At this time, Meng Dijian walked a few steps, arrived in front of Wang Zichao, saluted and said.

"Meng Di pays homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Looking at the somewhat young general in front of him, Wang Zichao was also full of emotions. During this period of time, his life in Gumi City was not good, because he still couldn't figure out what Mengdi wanted to do.

If he wanted to help him return to Luoyi, the capital of Zhou, then he should take some action, but Mengdi's troops were insufficient, so obviously he couldn't do this, but in Gumi City, it was good food, drink and hospitality.

Wang Zichao didn't even expect to return to Luoyi anymore, but at this moment, Mengdi sent someone to say that he was going to be enthroned and proclaimed emperor, which made him even more confused.

Unexpectedly, after arriving by boat, he saw a completely unfamiliar place, and it seemed that this was the south instead of the north. Ogi's shelter.

Especially seeing so many troops now, it also rekindled his extinguished ambition, so he said.

"Mengzi is exempt."

Then Meng Di took him to Huai City. The current Huai City has been refurbished and rebuilt, and it is three times larger than the original city, and it was all built by Lu Ban. The city wall looks tall and thick.

Moreover, there are all kinds of sentry towers and construction equipment, and there is an endless stream of caravans coming in and out, which makes Wang Zizhao's eyes full of surprise, looking at the tall and majestic city in the distance and asked Meng Di.

"This city should have just been built, and the color of the bluestone on it has not completely faded. Could it be that this is the residence that Mengzi prepared for this king?"
