Heaven rewards those who work hard: There is no bottleneck in my martial arts

Chapter 178 King Wu is still too young

Zhao Hongming suddenly stopped tapping the table with his right hand, and stared at Ji Guofu with a pair of sharp eyes, waiting for his response.

An invisible pressure enveloped Ji Guofu.

Ji Guofu raised his head and met Zhao Hongming's gaze. He suddenly felt that his breathing became rapid and his heart felt as if someone had grabbed it with a hand.

This "Martial King" His Highness has such a strong aura.

Ji Guofu hurriedly calmed down, calmed down as quickly as possible, and thought about Zhao Hongming's plan.

What Zhao Hongming said was still a bit general. He couldn't understand it immediately, and there was a thoughtful expression on his face.

Fortunately, he was involved in many of the key points, and after a little more research, he could get a rough idea.

Zhao Hongming wanted him to act as Li Mu's envoy and pretend to cooperate with Lu Zonghui to induce Lu Zonghui to ambush Wu Qi, and then expose Lu Zonghui's position to Li Mu.

Lu Zonghui thought that he had cooperated with Li Mu, so he would naturally relax his vigilance and concentrate on dealing with Zhao Hongming.

But in fact, Li Mu didn't know that Lu Zonghui had already cooperated with him.

When he informed Lu Zonghui of his location, Li Mu would only treat him as an enemy and think it was a military operation against him.

With Li Mu's character, he would definitely take action.

At that time, Li Mu will be the mantis hunting the cicada, Zhao Hongming will make the move, and the oriole will be behind.

In addition, Zhao Hongming had Lu Zonghui's correspondence.

All this was planned in a short time after he presented the letter.

This young His Highness King Wu has such a decisive character.

After Ji Guofu thought about his words for a while, he carefully expressed his understanding.

Zhao Hongming held up his palms and smiled and said: "That's right, Ji Yongshi is indeed very smart. I am not wrong about this person."

Ji Guofu gave a wry smile and said, "Your Highness, this is all your Highness's plan."

"But the two people sent by Lu Zonghui have been killed by me, and I don't have Zhao Jun's seal in my hand. How can I pretend to cooperate with Lu Zonghui?"

Ji Guofu expressed his questions and worries.

If this matter is not resolved, it will be difficult for him to win Lu Zonghui's trust, and it will be difficult to execute the first step of his plan.

Zhao Hongming said: "I can solve this matter for you."

When he was in Daliang, he learned a martial art called "Bone Forging and Skin Changing", which had the ability to change a person's appearance.

This martial arts is very shallow and has always been in his martial arts column. If he hadn't opened it intentionally, he wouldn't have paid attention to it or practiced it seriously.

I only use it a little when switching Wei Wuji's identity.

But even so, with the blessing and breakthrough of the [Tiandao Rewards Qin] martial arts, the bone forging and skin changing technique has also undergone a transformation.

With a sudden movement of consciousness, he summoned the [Tiandao Rewards Qin] martial arts panel. In the martial arts column, the information of "Bone Forging and Skin Replacement Technique" was displayed.

[Bone Forging and Skin Replacement - Reaching the Peak (100/100)]

After Dacheng, the bone forging and skin changing technique suddenly broke through the realm of "reaching the pinnacle".

After reaching this state, he can even use his true intention to change the appearance of others.

As for the Zhao seal, Ji Guofu knew the style and made a private engraving.

Seeing the confusion on Ji Guofu's face, Zhao Hongming said, "Do you have the heads of the two people sent by Lu Zonghui?"

"I still have these two heads with me. Their identity tags and other items were also searched and brought over by my subordinates."

"Go get it."

"In addition, tell Eunuch Gao about the height and body shape of the two people you killed, and ask him to select two similar and reliable soldiers based on their body shape."

"Yes."

Gao Yanshi and Ji Guofu didn't ask any more questions and left one after another.

After a while, the two people completed Zhao Hongming's request one after another and stood outside the door.

In the room, two bloody heads were placed on the ground.

On one side of the head, stood two loyal Wei Wu soldiers.

Zhao Hongming ordered: "You two each take a step forward and walk in front of me."

The two Wei soldiers did so.

Zhao Hongming stood up and put his hand on the face of one of the Wei soldiers.

He stared at the head of one of the Dongjun soldiers, his mind moving slightly.

The true meaning contained in the body began to circulate, and crackling arcs of electricity surged between the fingers.

Covered by his palm, Wei Wuzu's face felt numb, and the muscles on his face began to squirm.

After a moment, a face similar to one of the heads appeared in front of the two.

This method is similar to plastic surgery and can last for a long time before slowly returning to the original appearance.

No one could find any clues, which made the two warriors exclaim that it was magical.

After Zhao Hongming made sure there was nothing missing, he did the same thing on another person.

"From now to the next few days, you are the soldiers of the Eastern Army. Tomorrow, you will go to the Eastern Army camp with Warrior Ji." Zhao Hongming said: "You should talk less then and just listen to Warrior Ji's instructions. If this is the case If you do a good job, your title will be upgraded by one level when you come back."

The two Wei soldiers looked happy and said hurriedly: "I obey."

Zhao Hongming waved his sleeves and called Gao Yanshi and Ji Guofu in again.

When Ji Guofu saw the two Dongjun soldiers who had been "resurrected", his expression suddenly changed, thinking that Zhao Hongming had used some ancient magic to bring them back to life.

Zhao Hongming didn't explain too much to him.

"Ji Yongshi, take the two of you to familiarize yourself with your identity, and then explain the causes and consequences, and discuss countermeasures. Our army is about to attack Zhao. Time is tight and the task is heavy. It is best to set off tomorrow."

Ji Guofu nodded and said seriously: "I understand."

After sending Ji Guofu away, Zhao Hongming went to Wu Qi's room without stopping and told him all about his plan.

After Wu Qi heard Zhao Hongming's plan, he was immediately shocked.

When he thought that he was indulging his subordinates on the high platform, all in Zhao Hongming's plan, he felt a layer of cold sweat break out on his forehead.

His Royal Highness King Wu is indeed amazing.

"I wonder where General Wu thinks Lu Zonghui should be placed, so that it will not arouse his suspicion, but will also cause Li Mu to be stuck in his throat and have to send troops to annihilate him?"

Zhao Hongming thinks that he has some confidence in martial arts and people's hearts, but he really doesn't have a deep understanding of the art of war, and he is not as good as Wu Qi.

Therefore, in order to make his strategy foolproof, he was not ashamed to ask Wu Qi for advice.

Wu Qi pondered for a while, then turned around and found a rough map of Hedong County in the room.

He pointed to one of the canyons and said: "This is Hua County, about sixty miles north of Hedong City. Draw a straight line from the current location of Zhao Jun to the county seat of Hedong County, and Hua County is located on this straight line center of."

"If Zhao Jun wants to leave, taking Huaxian is the shortest route. If Lu Zonghui has the intention to occupy this place, it will be enough to make Zhao Jun and Li Mu sleepless, and they will definitely send troops to annihilate them."

Zhao Hongming looked at the map and realized something, and asked: "Then how can we make Lu Zonghui go here willingly? If according to my king's plan, the message conveyed to Lu Zonghui is that he and Li Mu conspired with our talents. yes."

"Your Highness, please be patient." Wu Qi pointed to another place on the map and said, "This is the route to Hua County. If we, Wei soldiers, attack Hedong from the front, from this position, we can interfere with our army from the flanks. , it can also give Zhao Jun two openings to attack our army from behind."

"In other words, as long as Lu Zonghui rushes to Hua County with the military order, he can create great opportunities for Zhao Jun even if he is a foreigner." Zhao Hongming also read some military books, and could easily understand Wu Qi's deduction, and praised : "General Wu is indeed a master of tactics. In this way, my king's plan will be more secure."

Wu Qi hurriedly took a step back and said, "Your Highness has foresight and foresight, which Wu Qi cannot match. If His Highness's plan is successful, it will reduce the casualties of many Wei soldiers and greatly increase our army's chances of winning."

Zhao Hongming said: "As far as I know, there are four warriors in the Wudan realm in their army. It is not that easy to defeat them. General Wu just needs to do his best."

"The final general must go all out."

Waiting for the next morning, Zhao Hongming informed Ji Guofu of all the march plans he had discussed with Wu Qi last night, and asked him to implement his plan.

At the same time, when Ji Guofu was leaving, Zhao Hongming only allowed him to take away two of the five people he brought with him, while Zhao Hongming detained the remaining three.

Although Zhao Hongming didn't say it explicitly, Ji Guofu also knew that this was Zhao Hongming's method to manipulate him.

As his handle.

Ji Guofu had no grudge against this.

As Zhao Hongming said, he has not made any achievements, and it is not easy to gain the trust of the other party and gain a foothold in the Wei army.

Forty miles away from Hexi City, 15 troops of the Eastern Army were stationed here.

Originally, Lu Zonghui recruited 16 troops this time, but he did not expect that in the Battle of Jinyin, he lost 15 troops in a confused manner, leaving only [-] troops left.

"It's all Wu Qi's fault and that bullshit King Wu." Lu Zonghui pointed at the air in the main tent and cursed loudly.

Pu Yuanqing on the side echoed: "General, calm down, a little thing is not worth it."

Lu Zonghui said fiercely: "If they hadn't been so victorious, the conditions I promised to my men would have been fulfilled. Why are you so cowardly?"

"General Lu, now that you have the support of many martial arts forces and the income from wish stones, these are enough for the general to take over the mountain and become the king. Why bother thinking about the imperial court?"

Pu Yuanqing said with a smile: "Besides, general, you have a close relationship with the Huo family, and so do our Zhujian Villa and the Huo family. The three of us are mutually beneficial, even if we leave Wei Ting aside."

Lu Zonghui was not a fool. He knew that his words meant to support Xinlong, so he said with deep meaning: "I heard that you have been in contact with the fourth prince recently?"

Pu Yuanqing laughed and corrected: "It's not us, it's the Huo family. They are more powerful in the court, so we can only say that both parties are affectionate."

Lu Zonghui smiled and said nothing and did not comment.

It is true that he has some friendship with the Huo family, and the Eastern Army was also under the control of the Huo family before.

But that doesn't mean he has no ideas at all.

In fact, he is also trying to get the Eastern Army away from the Huo family's imprint and continue to increase his influence.

This was another reason why he coveted the armaments in Zhao Hongming's hands.

To a certain extent, he didn't like being tied too deeply to the Sword Forging Villa.

It would be more appropriate to cooperate with them than to plan with Zhao Jun and Li Mu.

At least they both get what they need without affecting each other.

At this time, one of his subordinates entered the tent, leaned in front of Lu Zonghui's ear, and whispered: "General, the two people you sent to Zhao Jun are back, and there are also people from Zhao Jun with them."

"So fast."

Lu Zonghui was a little surprised, and immediately issued an order to expel the guest: "Pu Junwei, I have military affairs to deal with. We will talk about it later when I am not busy."

"Okay, then I won't disturb the general's business. We will talk about it later."

Pu Yuanqing was very sensible and left without asking any more questions.

After making sure there was no one behind him, Lu Zonghui took the initiative and said: "Let them come in."

"Yes."

Lu Zonghui tidied up his appearance and sat upright.

After a while, Ji Guofu walked into the tent with some of his men.

The two pretending Wei soldiers had calm expressions. They performed the salute of the Wei army, and Ji Guofu followed closely behind them.

As soon as he entered the main tent, Ji Guofu announced his family background: "I, Ji Guofu, the captain of the Zhao Military Academy, have met General Lu. My general has received the letter you handed over and specially ordered me to come and discuss with the general."

With that said, Ji Guofu took off a piece of copper silk seal to show his identity.

Along with it were letters he sent.

Seeing that the identities of the people, letters, and visitors he sent out could be verified one by one, which completely dispelled Lu Zonghui's doubts.

Lu Zonghui left no doubt and said happily: "Captain Ji, please take a seat."

Ji Guofu sat in the honored guest's seat without changing his expression.

"Come here, serve the food and wine quickly."

Lu Zonghui said politely: "Ji Xiaowei has been traveling all the way, and it must be very hard on the road. I don't know what Ji Xiaowei's hobbies are. Although my place is remote, I have everything I need."

Ji Guofu said: "General, let's put this matter aside. The situation is urgent, let's talk about business."

"Oh, Lieutenant Ji, please tell me."

Ji Guofu said seriously: "Our general noticed that the Wei army made some changes today, so after receiving General Lu's letter, he agreed to cooperate with the general and asked me to rush over without stopping."

King Wu has already taken action?
Lu Zonghui couldn't help but be a little surprised.

As a member of the Wei army, he had not received the notice yet, but Zhao army Li Mu already knew about it.

It is said that when Li Mu was out marching and fighting, he paid great attention to intelligence. It seems that this statement is true.

"I don't know, how can General Li cooperate with me?"

Ji Guofu already had a plan in mind and said with a smile: "We hope that when the two armies are fighting, the general can give us more convenience so that we can use roundabout tactics to surround Wu Qi."

Lu Zonghui laughed and said, "That's great. Due to my status, I can't attack Wu Qi directly, but I can guarantee that I can open the door for Zhao Jun. This is within my ability."

"That's the best way to go."

The two discussed many details after the encounter between the two armies, such as what code words should be used when meeting, what kind of military formations should be used to express goodwill, etc.

After chatting for a long time in the big tent, Ji Guofu made his speech: "That's enough. The military situation is urgent. I have to go back and resume my duties as soon as possible."

"Captain Ji, please excuse me."

Looking at Ji Guofu's leaving figure, Lu Zonghui couldn't help but sneered: "King Wu is still too young and doesn't know the strategies between adults. I believe he can be taught a profound lesson this time."

"General." Some of his subordinates re-entered the tent.

"What's the matter."

"Ji Xiaowei said that it is not safe in Wei territory, and he wants Jiang Shouming and Yue Yibin to escort him back to the Zhao army."

Jiang Shouming and Yue Yibin were the two soldiers he sent to deliver the message.

I didn't expect that Captain Zhao was so timid.

That's it.

At this time, Lu Zonghui was in a good mood. He waved his hand casually and said, "Let them go."

"By the way, I always reward meritorious deeds. This time they worked hard to make this happen. I rewarded each of them three taels of gold and a wishing stone last time."

"Yes."
