Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 55 The Dormant Viper

Luo Youdu was dumbfounded again.

Han Jixun built a village in Huangniupo, Chencang Road. Dasanguan where they are located is only [-] miles away from Huangniupo, and they can arrive there in half a day.

Seeing that the two armies are about to fight, the enemy general has not yet arrived at the front line, and he is traveling around with his beautiful wife and concubine?

Do you think you are Xie An, stabilizing the morale of the army?

With a slight movement in his heart, Luo Youdu answered with a smile: "I heard that Meng Chang was blind when he was in Kaifeng. At such a juncture, he actually arranged for Zhao Jizha, a trash, to be the commander. He really wants to take over the Qin and Fengzhous. For defense, wouldn’t the two states be equal to the world’s pie, free of charge?”

The speaker has an intention, and the listener also has an intention.

Wang Jing and Han Lingkun looked at each other, but neither of them spoke.

Luo Youdu understood what the two of them were thinking, so he didn't mention it, but invited them to talk.

Wang Jing had a new idea in his heart, and he didn't want to wait any longer: "My heart has been delivered, I am busy with military affairs, so I will stop nagging."

Han Lingkun cupped his fists and left with Wang Jing without saying a word.

After walking more than a hundred steps, Wang Jing said, "What do the envoy Han Jiedu think? I am confident that I will break through the eight camps on Huangniupo tomorrow, but the mighty city can only besieged and run out of food. A strong attack will consume too much force, and it may not be possible to take it down." .”

Han Lingkun replied: "Then it's better to wait until Zhao Jizha arrives at the front line. Han Jixun has a reputation for bravery, but Zhao Jizha has never heard of it. The first general is incompetent and exhausts the entire army. He will take over Qin and Feng. The state may be more beneficial to us."

Wang Jing nodded and said, "Jiedu Envoy and I have thought about going together. Zhao Jizha is a man I know quite well. He is the favorite minister of Shu Lord Meng Chang. When the news of my army's intention to go west was conveyed, Meng Chang came first. It was time for Zhao Jizha to inspect the border defense. The specific situation is unknown, but after Zhao Jizha returned, Meng Chang appointed Zhao Jizha as the military supervisor of the Xiongwu Army, commanded Qin and Fengzhou, and led Meng Chang More than a thousand soldiers dispatched went north."

"This Zhao Jizha is the literati you and I hate the most. He accompanied Meng Chang in reciting poems and writing lyrics all day long. It is said that when he sent troops, he also recited Prime Minister Zhuge's "Teacher List" and regarded himself as Prime Minister Zhuge..."

Even though Wang Jing was a reckless man, he still had great admiration for Zhuge Liang, and he was extremely contemptuous of this kind of behavior where both cats and dogs came to touch Zhuge Liang.

Han Lingkun said: "This kind of people, everyone thinks that they can be like Zhuge Liang, both civil and military. How do you know Zhuge Wuhou, how many people have there been in the past thousand years?"

The two discussed with each other and changed their tactics again.

For Luo Youdu's reminder, he never mentioned it.

It is rare for them to have the opportunity to fight, so how can they let a civil servant share their credit.

Luo Youdu returned to the big tent, looked at the boxes of belongings, and asked people to open them one by one.

Zhang Qiong opened a box in a rare and strange way, and exclaimed, his eyes didn't know where to put it.

Ten boxes, three of which are yellow and orange Tongbao, five boxes of silk and satin, including silk from Jiangnan, and Shu brocade from Bashu, half a box of silver ingots, half a box of gold pearl agate, and the remaining box is books, antiques, calligraphy and paintings , obviously took a lot of effort to collect.

Luo Youdu pointed to a box of Tongbao and said to Zhang Qiong: "Distribute this box, you and all the accompanying guards will have a share."

Zhang Qiong poked her hands and grinned, "Okay, let's go now!"

Luo Youdu looked at Cao Bin and said, "Do you want it?"

Cao Bin shook his head silently, hesitant to speak.

Luo Youdu smiled and said: "You want to ask, why do I accept these ill-gotten gains?"

Cao Bin nodded with a complicated expression.

Luo Youdu said meaningfully: "You think Duke Baoguo said that he and Han Jiedu made these things together, and that's what they really mean? Our faces turned pale. These were all given by Mr. Baoguo himself, and he just sold Han Jiedu as a favor."

"Unlike Han Jiedushi, Duke Baoguo, as the general guarding the border, covered the sky with one hand in his Fengxiang. But he has no foundation in the temple. What he fears most is that someone will speak ill of him in front of the officials. , thus arousing the suspicion of the officials and depriving him of everything he owns."

"He came with a gift today, if I don't accept it, he will have doubts, doubt whether I have prejudice against him, whether I have thoughts that are not good for him, and even doubt the official's attitude towards him."

"With such doubts, can he still fight with peace of mind?"

"Instead of letting him be suspicious, it's better to accept it generously and let him serve the court wholeheartedly."

"As for these money and things? I will use them later. Take a share first and reward my brothers. Don't the fat and water go to outsiders' fields!"

"I know your temperament. I don't want to accept this kind of money. I won't force it. But those brothers under your command are not easy. This trip followed me for thousands of miles, and I'm afraid they won't be able to get the military exploits. Make a little money, It's not too much to go back and bring some gifts to parents, wife and children, so don't interfere."

Cao Bin made a bow and said: "Bin has been taught, and I will also thank Mr. for the rewards for my brothers."

Luo Youdu patted Cao Bin's shoulder and said: "Go down, rest early, and watch how Duke Baoguo and the others act tomorrow, it must be very boring."

Just as Luo Youdu thought, the next day, they left Dashanguan and approached Huangniupo.

Set up a camp opposite the Shu army.

Wang Jing sent soldiers and horses to invite the battle, and greeted the parents of the Shu army outside the opponent's range.

The general of Shu also held his breath, no matter how the Zhou army abused him, he couldn't defend himself.

Wang Jing cursed for a while, but seeing no effect, he ordered an offensive against the enemy's camp.

This dozen, an accident happened.

Originally, the plan was to feign an attack to put pressure on the opponent, but in the end it directly broke through the opponent's first camp.

The Shu soldiers, who had not fought for ten years, were weaker than they imagined.

Wang Jing didn't know how to command for a while, he felt that if he exerted more strength, he could penetrate the eight camps opposite in one go, and drive this group of enemies back to Weiwu City.

But thinking that the Mighty City in the back is really not easy to fight, he patted his cheek and ordered the soldiers who were fighting in the front to stop releasing water and release a river!

Sure enough, under Zhou Bing's "release of the river", Shu Bing's "heroic" regained the lost camp.

This battle was full of drama, but Zhou Jun's goal had been achieved.

The front line has already started. As the coach, Zhao Jizha has no reason to travel leisurely!
In this battle, Zhou's army lost more than ten people, and hundreds of people were injured by swords of different severity.

After the two sides withdrew their troops, Luo Youdu returned to his tent very honestly, and did not set foot in Wang Jing and Han Lingkun's territory.

Now both of them are guarding against their own efforts to get involved in the military, so they followed their wish.

It's better to be still than to move.

Luo Youdu felt that he was now a poisonous snake, quietly dormant, ready to bite anytime and anywhere.
