I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 36 Uncle Xiang is angry
Why did the state of Jin choose to hold an alliance in Pingqiu?
The answer lies in these four thousand soldiers!

Ji Le at the side had never seen such a big scene, and his mouth became an "O" shape for a moment.Looking at the mighty and invincible hundreds of thousands of troops in front of him, he was stunned.

Hearing Li Ran's voice, he came back to his senses and asked in surprise:

"What is the reason?"

Li Ran looked at the billowing dust in the distance, and couldn't help feeling:

"The terrain on this hill is flat and stretches as far as the eye can see. There are more than [-] military vehicles lined up in a row, and the momentum is huge. It is daunting to look at. Who can rival the princes in the world?"

"Han Qi chose this place for the alliance just to show off his military might of Jin."

If he hadn't seen Han Qi leading the army out like this, Li Ran might not have thought of the reason.

At this time, seeing Han Qi standing on the military chariot and berating Fang Qiu, he couldn't help being shocked by Han Qi's cunning and cunning.

A military vehicle of the Jin State is equipped with roughly 50 people in the front and back, and there are more than 20 vehicles here, which means that the Jin State dispatched at least [-] people this time.If such a large-scale military force is only marching, then its momentum will naturally be greatly reduced.But if the method of mixing steps and rides is used, it will be more majestic and majestic, and who will not be shocked when they see it?

But if so many military vehicles are placed in Quwo or Jiangcheng, it is a matter of course that they will not be able to deploy them, and naturally they will not be able to show their aura.

It is precisely such a little-known small place like Pingqiu, such a spacious and barren place, that allows the army to line up like a dragon swimming, magnificent and magnificent.

During the war, Li Ran didn't know what happened to Han Qi.

But if it's a face-saving project, Li Ran definitely gives Han Qi a thumbs up.

"This is too good to pretend."

As far as he knew, the [-] or so soldiers now probably belonged to the Jin State.

This is like the king of the forest, when he was dying, he summoned all the creatures in the forest and roared to the sky to show his kingly demeanor.
To use all the power of the whole country just to show off one's soon-to-be-lost supremacy, to waste people and waste money, to gain face and lose face, is even more outrageous than Qishangquan.

"Jin Hou seems really confused."

Li Ran shook his head and sighed. He didn't rate Han Qi's performance. After all, Han Qi's performance was specially for the lords of the vassal states and had nothing to do with him.

Of course, Lu Hou was quite shocked by this, and hurriedly called Li Ran to ask his opinion.

Li Ran gave Han Qi a very pertinent comment: To be powerful is not to be moral, take jujube pills.

After Lu Hou listened, he thought for a while, and then he understood Li Ran's meaning.Can't help but nod in affirmation.

As a result, the princes who had their own thoughts saw Jin's military posture, each one of them looked like eggplants beaten by Shuang. Where did they have any thoughts to make any calculations, they all insisted, "Don't offend Jin." country" idea, waiting for the start of the alliance.

The same is true for Ji Sunsu, who never expected Han Qi to do such a trick.

He originally thought that the alliance was just a political show on the pretext of Chu's internal turmoil.At most, he would come forward to resolve some conflicts such as the Lu State and the surrounding small countries, and give himself the status of being the leader of the alliance.

But where did he expect that Han Qi would be so fierce that he would "intimidate" soldiers from all over the country?
Seeing this, he, who was already at ease, began to become anxious again.Knowing that this Han Qi is really a person who wants both face and lizi.

So, he couldn't help but think, this Han Qi loves face so much, if the time comes, he really takes the knife on himself, and it's the kind that beats the dog in the water, so what should he do?
But considering this issue now, it is obviously too late, and there are two days before the alliance.Even if he gave Han Qi a sneak peek now, he couldn't be sure whether Han Qi would help him.

"Anyway, you have to try again!"

After much deliberation, Ji Sunsu felt uneasy, and decided that it would be better to say hello to Han Qi again, so he asked Ji Sunhai to go with another gift.

On the second day, Ji Sunhai returned from Han Qi's residence, with a smile on his face, indicating that Han Qi had accepted the gift, Ji Sunsu was relieved.

In the evening, Marquis Lu, Ji Sunsu and Li Ran discussed what might happen at the meeting tomorrow.However, since Lu Hou had just ascended the throne, he might not be able to hold back the scene, and he might lose the face of Lu State at that time.

Therefore, after everyone discussed it, it was a "decision" that Dr. Ji Sun would speak on behalf of the monarch, and the monarch would only be responsible for the final blood sucking link.

Naturally, Marquis Lu didn't know what to ask, and he listened to Ji Sunsu for everything.Li Ran has no right to speak here. After all, he is just a guest minister. The reason why he was able to follow Lu Hou to the Jin Kingdom this time was because Shu Sunbao was "bedridden", so he could only listen to what everyone said. what.

After discussing the countermeasures for tomorrow, Ji Sunsu worried that Marquis Lu would be scared and unable to hold back.Just as he was about to pretend to be relieved again, unexpectedly, he heard a message from a soldier outside the account:

"Your Majesty, Doctor Jin is asking to see you."

This summons made everyone unexpected. Why did the sheep's tongue suddenly come to visit this late at night? !

"Sheep tongue gills? What is he doing here?"

Ji Sunsu naturally knew about Yang Tong Xi.When the Marquis of Lu ascended the throne, Yang Tongue also came to the State of Lu to watch the ceremony.And as the chief minister of Jin, he even brought Ji Sun Yiru to visit.

In his eyes, Yang Tongue is a stereotyped old-fashioned person who sticks to Zhou rituals and never moves.

Therefore, the ass determines the head, and he has never liked sheep tongue gills very much.Hearing that he was coming to visit, he immediately frowned slightly and raised his hand to signal to bring him in.

Li Ran, on the other hand, stood quietly by the side, as if nothing had happened.

In fact, everything that will happen tonight, although he is behind everything.But on the surface, he was just acting as a spectator tonight.But the real protagonists are Yang Tongue and Ji Sunsu.

Yang Tongue came in, walking in with steps that no relatives would recognize.

"Ah, Uncle Xiang is here..."

"Forget it."

Before Ji Sunsu could finish his polite words, Yang Tong He interrupted him with a cold snort.

I saw that the sheep's tongue was full of coldness, after coming in, he didn't salute Lu Hou, his hands were behind his back, and he raised his head slightly, with a look of pride.

Ji Sunsu was taken aback when he heard the sound, and thought to himself: Did this old guy eat firecrackers or did he take some wrong medicine?Why does it seem like there is nowhere to vent the anger on his face?
"Sheep Tongue, this is where the widowed monarch of the state of Lu is staying. The doctor came to greet him, but refused to greet the widowed monarch. How do you say that?"

"Hmph! Ji Sunsu! Are you worthy of discussing etiquette with this old man?"

As soon as Ji Sunsu's words fell, Yang Tongue counterattacked without hesitation.

Then, Yang Tongue's gaze sank, and the expression on his face suddenly darkened.

"The Song League has made an oath that the princes and states will jointly promote Jin and Chu to quell the war. The princes and states are not allowed to fight at will. If it is not necessary, it will be regarded as a violation of the alliance!"

"During this period, your country of Lu has occupied the cities of Ju and Zhu, and even forcibly occupied other countries' cities and acres of land. In the eyes of your country of Lu, do you still have our Jin country as the leader?!"

Yang Tongxue yelled angrily, even Ji Sunsu was shocked, and hurriedly thought of countermeasures.

But Yang Tong Xi didn't give him a chance, and still said with righteous indignation:

"Now the monarchs of Ju and Zhu have reported this matter to the widowed monarch. The purpose of the two monarchs coming to the meeting this time is to take back the territory from your Lu country. I heard that when they sent troops to take back the territory, but You also received strong resistance from your country of Lu, is there such a thing?"

"Uh... this matter..."

"Is there such a thing!"

Seeing that Ji Sunsu was still trying to prevaricate, Yang Tongu shouted again.

Ji Sunsu was taken aback by the roar, and nodded hastily:

"Yes... there is such a thing... but Uncle Xiang doesn't know about it... my Ji clan sent troops because of..."

"No matter what your reason is! Occupying other people's cities is a violation of the agreement of the Song League!"

"Shame! The State of Lu is simply a disgrace among the vassal states!"

Yang Tongue's face was full of indignation.

When Lu Hou heard this, he immediately turned his gaze to Li Ran.

Although he knew about Li Ran's plan, he didn't expect Yang Tongue's words to be so intense.

After all, he is also the king of the Lu country, so if Yang Tongue scolds the Lu country like this, isn't he scolding himself?
Unexpectedly, Li Ran only shook his head slightly, signaling that he didn't need to make a sound.

And Ji Sunsu was also a little overwhelmed by the scolding by Yang Tongji.

The reason why he hasn't reacted yet is that he just gave Han Qi another gift. After all, this sheep tongue must have been with Han Qi, so why did he come to expose his old background at this time?This is too unkind, right?
"To tell you the truth, the widow has already ordered that Marquis Lu will not participate in tomorrow's meeting, and return to the country immediately! As for the alliance, just send a senior official to stand with the officials of the princes and states."

It seems that this matter has indeed reached the ears of the Marquis of Jin, otherwise Yang Tongue would never have dared not allow the dignified monarch of a country to participate in this alliance.

Hearing this, Ji Sunsu was stunned. He had already prepared everything for tonight, and he was waiting to speak on behalf of the king at the alliance meeting tomorrow, to show the prestige of his Ji family.But at this time, such a person was completely wiped out by the inexplicable output of the sheep's tongue!
Zi Fujiao, who had been silent by the side, couldn't sit still anymore.Standing straight up, he argued vigorously and said:
"Doctor Shu Xiang, please be careful! Ju and Zhu are just barbarian countries. Now you are going to offend our same clan for the sake of two barbarian countries. Doctor Shu Xiang is going to abandon the brotherhood in Zhou Lizhong." Is it? Well, in this case, we are ordered to do it!"

Hearing the words, Yang Tongji turned his head away and met Zi Fujiao's eyes.What he didn't expect was that among the doctors of the state of Lu, there were such eloquent people.This is something he never expected.

But sheep tongue gills are not vegetarian after all, after hearing the words, they only thought for a moment, and then immediately counterattacked:

"Hehe! It turned out to be Doctor Zifu. Now we have [-] armored chariots here in Jin State. If we don't try to be reasonable, there must be no princes who can stop us! What's more, we are talking about justice now! If it is reasonable for you to attack other countries, then we will now lead the army of Jin and the divisions of the princes to punish your crimes because of the anger of Zhu, Ju, Qi, and Mao, isn't it okay?!"

"How can this be so! The widow is here, and this time he traveled thousands of miles to participate in the meeting, how can it be such a joke! Where is the Marquis of Jin, I want to meet the Marquis of Jin!"

Of course Ji Sunsu refused to give in, and glared for a moment, acting very aggrieved.

"Doctor Yang Tongue, is there some misunderstanding here? I came all the way from thousands of miles away, and the Marquis of Jin let me return home like this?"

Lu Hou acted very shocked, after all, it was over before it started, this is more or less unreasonable, right?
But Yang Tongue only gave him a slight salute when he heard the sound, and then said lightly:
"You don't need to talk too much, and the foreign ministers are only acting on the orders of the widow."

"Doctor Jisun, the widow also said that since your Ji family has forcibly occupied the cities of Ju and Zhu, then you should stay for this alliance. At the meeting tomorrow, you will go to Ju and Zhu by yourself. Let the king of the country say it."

"I also ask you to return to Lu immediately!"

Yang Tongue didn't have any extra words to say, after he finished speaking, he turned his head and walked away without the slightest hesitation.

This time, even Ji Sunsu's Wanqian self-confidence was shattered by the sheep's tongue.

"Doctor Jisun... the widow..."

Of course Lu Hou knew that Li Ran was behind all this, so he immediately asked Ji Sunsu what to do now.

Ji Sunsu came back to his senses upon hearing the sound, and immediately sighed:

"Since that's the case, please come back, Junhou. The old minister will deal with the cares here."

In fact, what can he do at this moment?Being in the state of Jin, it can be said that man is a knife and I am a fish.

　"Biography": The people of Zhu and Ju were stunned in Jin and said: "Lu attacked me day and night, and I almost perished. I am not in common, so it is because of Lu." When the Marquis of Jin did not see the Duke, the uncle Xianglai said: "The princes will use In the Jiaxu League, the widowed king knows that he can't serve the king, so please don't be diligent." Zifu Huibo said to him: "The king believes in the complaints of the barbarians, so as to destroy the country of brothers. After abandoning the Duke of Zhou, he is also the king. The widow heard the order Hey." Uncle Xiang said: "The widow has four thousand armored chariots. Even if he walks without the way, he must be feared. Besides, if he leads the way, how can there be any enemy? Although the cattle are barren, they are on the dolphin, and they are afraid. Immortality? The worries of Nan Kuai and Zi Zhong, can they be discarded? If you serve the people of Jin and use the teachers of the princes to punish the crimes of Lu because of the wrath of Zhu, Ju, Qi, and Mao, what else can you ask for? Falk?" The Lu people were afraid and obeyed. —— "Zuo Zhuan. The 13th Year of Lu Zhaogong"
