Han Dang is stronger

Chapter 202 Who came up with the bad idea?

"Your Majesty Lu, the general heard that Xiang Kang's bandit army sent an envoy, is this the old man?"

As expected by Mr. Shusun, just as Lu Wei nodded to admit his identity as Mr. Unclesun, Ma Dayan sent by Qin Ting directly grabbed his chest and asked fiercely with red eyes: " Old man, what did Xiang Kang’s traitor send you for? What’s his plan? Say it!”

Mr. Shusun, who knows people very well, saw at a glance that Ma Dayan was a hardliner in the Qin army, so of course he didn't dare to say anything, and what made Mr. Shusun even more worried was that another official of the Qin army walked up to him without notification. After entering the sheriff's hall, he didn't salute Lu Yu, but just looked at him with cold eyes, but Lu Yu didn't blame him for his rude behavior, obviously he was also an important figure in the Qin army.

"Old man, are you dumb? General Ben asked you what you were doing here, why didn't you speak?"

Seeing that Mr. Shusun was pretending to be deaf and dumb, Ma Dalin asked again. Fortunately, Lu Wei stepped forward to smooth things over for Mr. Shusun, saying: "General Ma, the two countries are fighting each other. If you don't kill them, there is no need to make things difficult for him." , let the rebels laugh at us behind our backs for being rude. Also, is he here to persuade us to surrender in Kaesong on behalf of the rebel Xiang Kang?"

"Kaicheng surrender?" Ma Dayan was startled for a while, then laughed loudly, and said with a big smile, "Xiang Kang is still dreaming and wants to persuade us to surrender Kaesong? Doesn't he know that our Daqin army I have already prepared to fight him to the death, and when he comes to Wancheng to die, how dare he dream of making us surrender?"

Mr. Shusun was sweating profusely, and replied timidly: "Forgive me, General. Of course, the villain knows that Lu Junzun and you are both loyal to the Great Qin court and will never surrender to our Chu army. But our right general issued an order. The villain has to come too."

At this time, the official of the Qin Army who followed Ma Dalan to the hall also spoke, and asked Lu Yu: "Jun Zun, does Xiang Kang's rebel have any letters? Can you let the lower officials see it?"

"No." Lu Wei replied casually, "Xiang Kang's rebel just asked this envoy to give me a gift, and asked this envoy to persuade us to surrender on behalf of Xiang Kang's rebel."

"Why did Lu Yu lie?" Mr. Shu Sun was slightly taken aback, and when he subconsciously looked at Lu Yu's confidant Chen Hui from the corner of his eye, he saw that Chen Hui, who had received Xiang Kang's letter from Lu Yu and read it, was now empty-handed. The surrender letter signed by Kang himself had long since disappeared, and Mr. Shusun immediately understood in his heart that Lu Yu deliberately didn't want Ma Daling and others to see Xiang Kang's surrender letter.

Because there was no letter from Xiang Kang on the case table in front of Lu Wei, the Qin army official said that Xiang Kang really just asked Mr. Rebel Kang, wants to attack the city, just let the horse come over, we will accompany him to the end! Persuading us to open the city and surrender, it is just a daydream, don't even think about it!"

"Yes, yes, the villain will report the truth to the right general when he goes back." Mr. Shusun nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and asked cautiously: "Dare to ask your lord, Gao's name and his official position?"

"This is our Nanyang County Captain Qiu Anqiu." Lu Yu's confidant Chen Hui took over the conversation, first introduced Qiu An's identity casually, and then said with integrity: "He is the same as our Lu Junzun. I have made the determination to live and die with Wancheng, our Junzun Lu has already said just now, telling you to take Xiang Kang's gift and leave, why don't you leave?!"

After saying that, Chen Hui also picked up Xiang Kang's gift from the table and threw it in front of Mr. Uncle Sun. Mr. Uncle Sun understood, nodded and bowed in agreement, and picked up Xiang Kang's gift in a embarrassed look, holding it After saying goodbye and leaving, Lu Yu yelled at Mr. Uncle Sun's back: "Also, tell Xiang Kang Xiaoer by the way, don't send any envoys to contact me in the future. Farewell to his messenger!"

…………

Because Lu Yu gave the order to allow Mr. Shusun to leave, Mr. Shusun returned to the Young Marshal's camp very smoothly, reported to Xiang Kang the truth about what happened before and after meeting with Lu Yu, and even very competently stole Lu Yu. Xiang Kang was also informed of the small details of the letter of persuasion to surrender. Xiang Kang was of course quite pleasantly surprised when he heard it, and said, "Lu Yu didn't want his subordinates to see my letter of persuasion? For what reason? Could it be that Lu Yu really Have you already thought about surrendering?"

"General You, the officer looked closely at his expression, and found that his expression had indeed begun to waver after listening to the officer's heartfelt words. If it hadn't been interrupted by Nanyang Junwei and the tyrant Qin general surnamed Ma, the officer might have I have already succeeded in surrendering." Mr. Shu Sun really wasn't bragging casually this time, and said: "The lower official also thinks that Lu Wei may have really thought about surrendering, but because his colleagues objected, he dared not casually Make a decision."

Xiang Kang nodded, turned to Chen Ping beside him and asked, "Mr. Chen Ping, what do you think?"

"There are two possibilities. One is that Lu Yu and his subordinates are acting to make us feel that he has been shaken, tricking us into taking it lightly, and then taking the opportunity to make trouble." Chen Ping replied: "As for the second, it should be He Shu. Mr. Sun's analysis is the same, Lu Yu has been shaken, but he is worried that his colleagues and colleagues will oppose him, and he is even afraid that his colleagues and subordinates who refuse to surrender will preempt him and launch a mutiny to kill him, so he deliberately pretends to be tough in front of others. .”

Xiang Kang nodded again, and then said: "If Lu Jue is acting and wants to trick us into taking it lightly, this is easy to deal with. We just need to be careful and be ready to give him a trick at any time. But if he is Worried about the opposition of his colleagues and subordinates, the matter will be even more troublesome. If he can't suppress the opposing voices around him, even if we send envoys to the city to surrender, there is no possibility of success. On the contrary, it may backfire, making us miss the direct surrender hope."

"General You, the only thing we can do now is to find a way to lure the Tyrant Qin army out of the city to fight, and severely damage the Tyrant Qin army in the field." Chen Ping suggested: "Only in this way can we help Lu Yu suppress There are voices against surrender around him, and even if the surrender fails, it will be much easier for us to attack the city."

Of course, Xiang Kang knew that luring the enemy out of the city for a decisive battle was the best way at present, but the Qin army had already made it clear that it would stick to the city. It would certainly not be easy to lure the Qin army out of the city, regardless of Xiang Kang and Chen Ping. No matter how hard he racked his brains, he still couldn't come up with any sure way to lure the enemy.

During his hard thinking, Xiang Kang once thought of his good trick to surrender, but after this idea moved in his mind, Xiang Kang immediately burst out laughing and scolded himself for being naive. Given the current situation, unless the generals of the Young Marshal Army are crazy Only then would he run to surrender to the Qin army. If he had someone come forward to feign surrender, even three-year-old children like Lu Yu would know that they were cheating, and there was absolutely no possibility of success.

Fortunately, there is still plenty of time, and it doesn't matter if you can't think of a way for a while, so Xiang Kang is not in a hurry. In addition to letting the young generals seize the time to build a strong camp, he also arranged for the soldiers to cut down a lot of wood and rush to build various camps. A siege weapon, while trying to lure the enemy, it is also ready to attack the city with force.But to Xiang Kang's surprise, it was only one night after arriving in Wancheng. In the morning of the next day, scouts came from outside the tent to report that Qi Ji, the self-proclaimed captain, had brought his troops from Li County. Came to Wancheng to help the young commanders attack Wancheng.

"This Qi Ji's face is really thick enough." Xiang Kang said with a cold snort, "Whether we agree or not, we will first bring the army over and make empty favors, and then wait for us to take down Wancheng. Then you can have the cheek to ask for money and food."

"General You, you can't be polite to such a shameless person." Li Shiqi said angrily, "Send someone to tell them to leave quickly, and don't come to the Wancheng battlefield to get in the way."

Of course, Xiang Kang also felt that Qi Ji's mob was in the way, so he immediately sent a civil servant to the north, telling Qi Ji clearly that his army did not need his help, and asked Qi Ji not to intervene in the Wancheng battlefield.But after more than an hour, the sent civil servant returned to Xiang Kang with an angry face, and clapped his hands and said: "General You, the surname Qi is too thick-skinned. Not only will he not listen to the persuasion and warning of the villain, but also He said that he came here for the great event of anti-Qin, insisted on refusing to stop advancing, and now we are only ten miles away from our camp."

"The tiger doesn't show its power, and treat me like a sick cat?" Xiang Kang was completely enraged, and for a moment he forgot that there was no cat species in the Central Plains in this era, and shouted: "Send an order to Ding Ji to lead the troops out of the camp." , drive Qi Ji away directly, Qi Ji doesn't listen to the greeting, just hit it right!"

"You General, calm down." Zhou Zeng, who has a better temper, stopped him and persuaded Xiang Kang: "Although Qi Ji is brazen, he is also an anti-Qin righteous teacher after all, and he is from a wealthy family in Nanyang. He has deep roots in Nanyang and has made friends. Kuang Guang, now he came here under the banner of helping us attack the city, but we confronted them with swords and weapons, spreading the word will only damage our reputation, and it will not help us buy Nanyang people's hearts."

"Then you can't just watch him come over and get in the way and want to take advantage of it?"

Xiang Kang was still angry, and then Xiang Kang's heart moved again, and he quickly changed his words and said: "Give Ding Ji an order to lead the troops out of the camp and get ready to fight Qi Ji, but if Qi Ji doesn't fight first , don’t start a war with him.”

After saying that, Xiang Kang pointed to the envoy who had been in contact with Qi Ji before, and ordered: "When Qi Ji arrives nearby, you go again and tell Qi Ji that since he insists on coming to help us attack the city , then set up the camp for me outside the west gate of Wancheng, far away from our camp. And tell him clearly that this is a chance for me to connect with him. If he misses it, it will be too late to regret it later. "

The envoy agreed without hesitation, but Zhou Zeng was extremely confused. He asked in confusion, "General You, what happened to you today? Isn't this your usual style? If we do this, it will easily cause conflicts with our allies?"

Xiang Kang laughed and said, "Uncle Ya, if we have a conflict with our friendly forces, who will benefit?"

"Who will benefit?" Zhou Zeng was stunned for a moment, then he immediately came to his senses, and smiled at Xiang Kang, "I am ashamed, I have not made much progress after following General You for so long, and I completely forgot what General You did." Everything you do will definitely not be aimless."

It's time to take a look at the situation on Qi Ji's side. During the time when he had the cheek to insist on going south, Qi Ji was still thinking about how to trick the world-famous idiot into agreeing to attack the city with his mob, but he came to the camp of the Young Marshal Army. After approaching, Qi Ji and the mob under his command were extremely dumbfounded to see that a well-equipped army of young commanders had already been waiting outside the camp, ready to start a battle with them.

And then, the envoy sent by Xiang Kang came to Qi Ji again, and forced Qi Ji to set up camp outside the west gate of Wancheng with arrogance. Qi Ji was so angry that he wanted to turn around and leave. He said, "Qi Duwei, our right general said that this is an opportunity he gave you. If you miss it, it will be too late to regret it later."

The muscles on Qi Ji's face twitched, and none of the subordinates around him had a black face, and the envoy of the Young Marshal urged: "Captain Qi, hurry up and set up camp, our right general is already calling people to prepare a banquet , After you have established the camp, I will invite you to drink with him and discuss important matters."

As he spoke, the envoy of the Young Commander took a step forward and handed a small cloth ball to Qi Ji. When Qi Ji took it in doubt and opened it, he saw a line of small characters written on the silk cloth - don't say anything, I'm just acting for you. The Tyrant Qin army looked at it and helped me to do things, and there will be a big thank you after the thing is done.Xiang Kang.

It was also after seeing Xiang Kang's handwritten note that Qi Ji, who was not too stupid, vaguely understood Xiang Kang's meaning, first squeezed the note in his hand, and then shouted: "Go to the west gate of Wancheng to set up camp! "

"Brother!" Qi Si was furious and said, "Since Xiang Kang looks down on us so much, why don't we go."

"Stop talking nonsense, we can't make this trip in vain." Qi Ji yelled loudly, and insisted on ordering the army to set up camp outside the west gate of Wancheng.

Since Qi Ji insisted so much, the generals of the Qi army had no choice but to march towards the west gate of Wancheng honestly. As a result, the generals of the Qi army were even more angry that after they marched westward, the young generals outside the camp The army followed up again, monitoring Qi Jun's team away from the Marshal's camp, and sent someone to designate a location outside the west gate of Wancheng early on, ordering Qi Jun to set up camp there.

Seeing this scene, the generals of the Qi army were of course talking a lot, and they were all very puzzled why the young commander treated his allies in such a rough manner. Qi Min, who has been running around with his father since Qi Ji started the army, also saw that something was wrong. As soon as Qi Jun's team arrived at the designated place and began to set up camp under the surveillance of the Young Marshal, Qi Min jumped off the carriage, trotted to Qi Ji and asked worriedly: "Ah Weng, what happened? Why does the army of Chu State seem to want to fight us at any time?"

"Don't worry, it's fine." Qi Ji patted his daughter's black hair to comfort him, he took a deep breath and didn't tell her the truth.

At this time, Xiang Kang had already sent an envoy to contact Qi Ji, asking Qi Ji to go to the Marshal's camp to meet him immediately. Qi Min, Qi Si and the others were worried about Qi Ji's safety, and advised Qi Ji not to take any risks. Feng Huan volunteered to contact Xiang Kang on behalf of Qi Ji.Qi Ji was firstly curious about Xiang Kang's real intentions, and secondly, he knew that if Xiang Kang really wanted to harm himself, there was no need to trick himself into the Young Marshal's camp. He could easily clean up his own mob, so he ignored everyone's dissuasion. After arranging the establishment of the camp, he immediately followed the envoy of the Young Marshal Army to the east and went to the camp of the Young Marshal Army to meet Xiang Kang.

After Qi Ji left, Qi Si, Qi Feng and the others were of course extremely worried, for fear that the young commanders outside the camp would take advantage of the leaderless opportunity of their own army to make a sudden attack and kill Qi Jun who was still standing in the camp. Yes, and as a woman, of course, Qi Min had his heart hanging in his throat. He was extremely afraid that the arrogant young commander would harm Qi Ji, so he was always restless, looking at the young commander's camp in the distance. Towards.

Fortunately, Qi Jun's camp had just taken shape, and the young commanders outside the camp had already withdrawn by themselves, and did not do anything immoral like taking advantage of the fire, and when it was getting dark, Qi Ji also brought a whole body of wine Qi came back from the young marshal's camp, Qi Min was overjoyed to receive the news, and hurriedly came to the Chinese army tent to meet Qi Ji, but Qi Ji was busy discussing matters with Qi Si and other confidants, and told Qi Min: "Good boy!" Daughter, go back to your military tent to rest first, Ah Weng will visit you later, and I have something important to tell you."

Seeing with his own eyes that his father had returned safely, Qi Min put his heart in his stomach for a long time, and obediently obeyed Qi Ji's instructions, and went back to his bed and waited honestly.Then after a while, Qi Ji really entered Qi Min's bedroom with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "My dear girl, Ah Weng is here, are you sleepy?"

"Don't be sleepy, Ah Weng sit down quickly."

The virtuous Qi Min hurriedly helped Qi Ji sit down, Qi Ji cut straight to the point, and said with a smile: "Miner, even if you are sleepy tonight, you have to listen to Ah Weng to finish. Ah Weng has something very important. I need you to do something important for me tomorrow, and you can't refuse."

"What does Ah Weng want his daughter to do?" Qi Min asked suspiciously.

"At noon tomorrow, bring a few followers to the northeast of our camp to practice dancing." Qi Ji ordered, "Then Xiang Kang, the right general of Chu State, will pass by there and snatch you away. ...."

"Take me away?" Qi Min was so frightened by his father's words that his face paled, and he asked in surprise, "Ah Weng, do you want me to be snatched away by the right general of Chu?"

"Of course it's a fake robbery. How could Ah Weng be willing to let my good daughter be snatched away by another man?" Qi Ji laughed, and then quickly said: "But you must pretend to be very scared, and you must not let me The entourage who took them knew that you were pretending to be robbed, and then as long as you arrived at the camp of the right general, the matter would be over, and the right general would never do anything to you, A Weng, I will bring you back as soon as possible."

After a lot of effort, Qi Ji finally told Qi Min the whole story, as well as Xiang Kang's reason and purpose for deliberately snatching Qi Min away. Qi Min couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, and said, "Ah, who did this? Bad idea? How dare you use my daughter to do this kind of thing?"

"Don't worry about whoever came up with the idea, anyway, you must help Ah Weng with this." Qi Ji refused to answer the person who came up with this bad idea, and said: "After the matter is completed, Ah Weng will definitely reward you heavily, we and You Whether the general can take Wancheng smoothly depends on your performance tomorrow."

Qi Min wanted to refuse, but he had to listen to his father's words, so after hesitating for a long time, Qi Min could only ask worriedly: "Ah Weng, after the right general of Chu State took his daughter away, Will it be to my daughter...?"

"Haha, don't worry, General You is a gentleman and will never mess around. I'm your Aunt, how could I be willing to let you take risks?" Qi Ji laughed heartily, and added in his heart, "Good girl , you can really rest assured, in fact, General You is worried about his reputation, and he is not willing to pretend to snatch you away."

His father's assurance was only to reassure Qi Min a little, but when he thought that he was going to be snatched away by a short, dark, ugly fat man, he had to face a pile of fat people walking around, with thick lips and always drooling from the corners of his mouth. , Qi Min couldn't help shivering, his frail body trembled slightly, and couldn't help but begged: "Ah Weng, don't let my daughter do this, okay?"
