Yue Ji

Chapter 261 Let's talk about Qin

After Wei Luo made a covenant with Young Master Ji, Young Master Ji immediately said he couldn't afford it, and his cronies sent him back to Chu for treatment.

At the same time, the son Wu of Zhao Cheng was relieved when he learned that Jingling, the king of Jin, had announced his attack on Qin. war.

Time flies.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

With an order from Young Master Wu, 20 Chu troops set up a chariot formation and slowly advanced towards Zhaocheng.

On the wall of Zhao City, fifty thousand Zhao people looked at the approaching Chu army with panicked expressions on their faces.

The people of Chu saw the panic of the people of Zhaocheng, and there were bursts of laughter in the team.

This kind of laughter made the Zhaocheng people even more uneasy, and the Chu soldiers were even more excited.They yelled loudly, and gradually, several chariots drove out of the car formation, and rushed towards the city wall of Zhao City first.

At this moment, there was an earth-shattering sound of horseshoes coming from behind Chu people.

Young Master Wu was shocked, he turned his head to look hastily, but when he saw it, he met a dark army that was approaching like ants, not more than two miles away!
A wise man beside Young Master Wu pointed to the flag embroidered with eagles and feathers, and exclaimed, "This, this is the private army of Jingling!"

Young Master Wu looked in disbelief at the Jin army rolling in like layers of black waves, and before he knew it, his face turned pale.

He waved his right hand and shouted anxiously: "Come here, I want to step forward and ask questions!"

As soon as Young Master Wu's voice fell, the Chu army's flag waved.With the wave of the flag, the big Chu army that was pressing down on the lower layers of Zhaocheng stopped at the same time.

Slowly, the front army of the Chu people turned to the rear army, turned the front of the car, and faced the black army that was pressing heavily like a huge wave.

Then, the Chu people's flag waved again.

Like a rolling wave, the Chu army parted, and a road came out of the billowing smoke and dust.

Gong Ziwu's chariot drove out slowly and came to the front of the array.

When the Chu army completed these actions, the Jin army, which was pushed by like a huge wave, was less than [-] steps away from them.

Young Master Wu stood on the chariot. He stared at the Jin army, raised his voice, and shouted angrily: "Jingling! This time, you came here unannounced. Could it be that you are taking revenge on the private army again?"

Young Master Wu's words contained sarcasm.He is accusing Jingling of despicable behavior of undeclared war.

As soon as Gong Ziwu's voice fell, the chariot stopped slowly, and a clear and bright laugh came from the Jin army where the smoke and dust gradually subsided.

Amidst the loud laughter, a tall and thin general in his fifties appeared in front of Young Master Wu in a chariot.

The general crossed his hands at Young Master Wu, and said with a smile: "Young Master misunderstood. My lonely gentleman is still forming an army in Xintian at this moment, and only waits to fight the Qin people! This time, I am the one who is fighting Young Master. Wo Ji!"

As soon as He Ji said this, Young Master Wu was startled.

Originally, he came forward angrily because according to the information he had received, it was the people of Qin who declared war on Jingling, the king of Jin, and not his son Wu.Now Jingling's private army suddenly attacked, which shows that he is lying.How could the dignified Lord Jin resort to such low-handed tricks?
Now that He Ji explained it like this, did he dare to misunderstand him?

While Young Master Wu was stunned and silent, there was a burst of earth-shattering cheers in Zhaocheng behind Chu Jun.Those cheers became louder and louder, and among them, there was a faint sob.

Young Master Wu's complexion changed drastically, and he ordered in a deep voice, "The people of Jin are invincible, quickly summon Young Master and come to help!"

"promise!"

According to Mr. Wu's estimate, the 30 miscellaneous troops led by Mr. Gong will arrive within seven days.With 50 soldiers in hand, even if they can't immediately defeat Prince Jingling's private army and Zhao's idiots.But it is still entirely possible that this battle will last for three and a half years.

Although I went deep into Jindi, food and grass were inconvenient.But the Jin people were defeated at the time, and their morale was low. The only thing available was the [-] private army of Jin Jun Jingling.The Chu army held them back here, and the Qin people attacked and plundered the Jin land again. Hmph, no matter how strong Jingling is, he might not be able to defeat them.

If they cooperate well, [-] of Jin Jun's private army in Jingling will be wiped out, and from then on, the Jin State will have nothing to worry about.

Therefore, the current son, Wu, is still full of confidence.

However, Young Master Wu did not expect that the news sent by the envoy for help was that Young Master Ji was suddenly seriously ill and had been transported back to the country by his cronies. Because the military amulet was in Young Master Ji's hands, they could not command the 30 troops at all.

Young Master Wu was furious, so he could only send envoys to chase after Young Master Ji.

At this time, with the 20 troops in his hands, Young Master Wu has been fighting against the private army in Jingling for ten days!During these ten days, Gong Ziwu's army suffered casualties at an unimaginable speed.

When Wei Luo came to Weicheng where the Qin army was located, the 20 army of Gong Ziwu had already been attacked by Jingling's private army and the Zhao army.

This battle can be described as tragic. Young Master Wu died in the battle. Of the 20 elite Chu people, only [-] escaped.There were another [-], half of the casualties and half became slaves of the Jin people.

Returning from a serious illness, Young Master Ji, who was worthy of entering Caijing, returned angrily with his seriously ill body after learning of Young Master Wu's request for help.But when he stepped into Jindi, he heard the news that the whole army of Gong Ziwu was destroyed.

Young Master Ji, who thought he was invincible, had no choice but to gather the fleeing Chu army and fled back to the country.

At the same time, the Jin army took advantage of the momentum to push forward, and in a blink of an eye they pushed into the deserted Hancheng and Fancheng, and took them back one by one.

At this time, Wei Luo had arrived at Wei City where General Qin was stationed.

This time, General Qin will be led by Prince Qin Yan.

The people of Qin have always been bloody. Whenever they had a big battle, they would cut off the enemy's head and hang it directly on their waist without wearing a helmet. The blood dripping all over their bodies was so terrifying that it made people feel terrified.

Such bloody Qin people have always looked down on the weak and benevolent Prince Yan.Therefore, in the past few years, in order to establish his heroic image in the hearts of the Chinese people, Prince Yan would participate in every battle.

It was Qin Jun's consent that the people of Ying Chu attacked Prince Jingling together, and it had nothing to do with Prince Yan.However, after Prince Jingling announced that he would not return to Xintian, Prince Yan became very active. He took the initiative to take over the important task of attacking Jin and became the commander-in-chief of General Qin.

When Wei Luo came to Weicheng, Prince Yan had just finished discussing with the ministers.

As soon as he returned to the courtyard where he lived, he heard the news that Wei Luo had asked to see him.

That alluring woman?

Prince Yan just thought for a while, and asked Wei Luo to be called in.

This time, Wei Luo was still dressed in white.

She has a slender figure and beautiful lines. She is wearing a white robe and a gauze hat hides her charming little face.

Prince Yan sat on the bench, squinting his almond eyes, quietly staring at Wei Luo who walked in like a willow in the wind.

When Wei Luo stepped through the door, his first move was to take off the gauze cap in his hand.After all, it is a disrespectful behavior to meet people in secret.

Wei Luo took off the gauze hat, and was blessed while the prince Yan looked at him, and called out crisply: "I have seen His Royal Highness, Prince Qin."

Prince Yan smiled when he heard the words, and asked, "Are you here this time to be congenial?"

He opened a pair of round almond eyes, looked Wei Luo up and down, smiled, and continued in a cold voice: "If you want to agree with me, I will stay monogamous and treat each other with kindness. If you don’t mean it, please don’t speak.”

He was very direct.

Very straightforward.

That's right, when he was exchanged by Young Master Jingling back to Li Qi, both he and Qi Young Master Zhi had expressed to Wei Luo that they were willing to take her in.

However, compared with Prince Yan's tenderness and affection that time, his performance this time was much colder and more rude.

Prince Yan's rudeness made the smile on Wei Luo's face stiff.

But in a blink of an eye, she looked at Prince Yan calmly, raised her voice slightly, and said flatly: "The prince is wrong."

Under Prince Yan's stare, Wei Luo turned around on his own, came to the table in front of him and knelt down.

After sitting down, she straightened her beautiful waistline. While Prince Yan couldn't help scanning up and down, Wei Luo stared at Prince Yan for a moment, and said with a clear and forceful voice: "Concubine is here this time. It was the husband-lord who asked the king: the people of Chu have been defeated, and only the king remains in the land of Jin. Dare to ask the gentleman, do you want to use your own strength to resist me and force Jin?"

In this question, there is the arrogance, self-confidence, and arrogance that Jin Jun Jingling is accustomed to!
The cowardly and gloomy Prince Yan was startled for a moment.

People like him are used to being cautious.Wei Luo's unceremonious, straightforward questioning made his heart skip a beat, and he hesitated for a moment.

Wei Luo smiled leisurely.

She leaned back, Mo Yu looked at Prince Yan with extremely clear eyes, and said in a clear and gentle voice: "I really don't know, what does a gentleman want?"

Prince Yan sneered immediately, and thought to himself: What I want is of course rights.

Wei Luo's voice was still coming, clear and sweet, "This time the people of Qin sent troops at Chu's request, and there is reason. Now that the people of Chu have retreated, if a gentleman retreats with Chu, he will still live up to the name of benevolence and trustworthiness."

Chu people have retreated?

Prince Yan's expression changed instantly.

He stared at Wei Luo in disbelief, at her calm expression.

Seeing him like this, Wei Luo smiled lightly, and said calmly: "Young Master Chu, my son, I was beheaded by my husband before the battle, and my son and I fled back in a hurry. This matter should be reported in a few days. Your eyes and ears."

Prince Yan stared at Wei Luo closely.Seeing Wei Luo's calm expression, he couldn't help thinking secretly: Could it be that the Chu people really retreated?This, how is this possible?

After thinking about it for a while, Prince Yan saw Wei Luo drinking slowly with a calm expression on his face, so he put aside the worries in his heart, snorted softly, and said unceremoniously: "Madam, are you here as a lobbyist?"

As soon as his voice fell, Wei Luo stared at him pityingly.

Being stared at by a beauty like Wei Luo, Prince Yan was furious.

However, he was used to bearing the burden of humiliation, and immediately swallowed his anger, just staring at Wei Luo with heavy eyes.Vaguely, Prince Yan was not only angry, but also had strong anxiety: It seems that the people of Chu have really lost.Otherwise, as a woman, how dare she look at me like that?
Wei Luo didn't seem to notice his unhappiness, and his eyes were clear, looking at Prince Yan leisurely, and said: "The gentleman once participated in the battle of Qi and Jin coalition forces attacking Chu. Come to think of it, the young master was against my husband's private army in Jingling. You should be aware of the tyranny of Wei, right? Now you have 20 elite soldiers in your hands, and these 20 elite soldiers may be able to fight against the private army of my husband. But after this battle, how many people are there for the 20 Qin people? Can people go back to the country?"

When Wei Luo said this, the anger on Qin Taiziyan's face disappeared, and his eyes showed a pensive look.

At this time, Wei Luo's crisp voice sounded like a flowing spring, "The crown prince is already the crown prince of Qin. If he loses this battle, he doesn't know that the son is already, the son Di, and Liang and Su Zhuchen, what should we do?"

Young Master Ji, Young Master Di, Liang, and Su are old opponents in Qin who have fought against Prince Yan and fought with him with great joy.

Seeing that Prince Yan frowned tightly, Wei Luo couldn't help sighing.

With a sigh, she took a sip of the wine bottle on the table, and said with emotion: "I really don't know what the young master is looking for! Even if the young master wins this battle by chance, he is still a prince of Qin. The benefit of a land and a city. However, if the crown prince is defeated, the crown prince is already dead, and the crown prince Di and others will definitely attack the crown prince vigorously under the pretext of losing troops and offending his strong neighbors. At that time, the position of the crown prince will not be guaranteed."

Wei Luo spoke clearly and forcefully up to this point, and then let out a long sigh, "I really don't know, what is the son asking for!"

This time, Prince Yan did not answer.

He lowered his head, frowning tightly and remained silent for a long time.

Yes, although I have 20 elite soldiers, these 20 elite soldiers are at best comparable to the [-] private soldiers in Jingling, the king of Jin.But behind him is the entire Jin State, and there are a steady stream of soldiers to supplement.In this battle, I can't beat him!

The woman in front of me is right, she can't beat herself, but she can't afford to lose.

That's right, if the Chu people are really defeated, I will take advantage of the situation and retreat. At this time, if I retreat with Chu, I can still win the reputation of trustworthiness and righteousness!

Prince Yan thought of this, laughed, and said loudly: "Madam's words are very reasonable." In a blink of an eye, he added with a smile: "Madam came from thousands of miles away, why should we stay less to wash away the dust? It is just right for you and me to meet each other. Cook wine and meet."

At this moment, Prince Yan had a sincere smile on his round face, and his round almond eyes were full of enthusiasm.At this moment, he looks exactly like what Wei Luo has seen before. It seems that the cold Prince Yan that Wei Luo saw just now is just her illusion.

Wei Luo knew that Prince Yan's attitude was because he doubted what he said.He was waiting for news of the defeat of the Chu people to arrive.

Wei Luo hurriedly stood up to return the salute, and said with a smile: "The prince is so kind, how dare you refuse to obey?"

That day, Wei Luo really stayed in Weicheng.This night, in the place where Wei Luo lived, the three floors inside and outside were occupied by Prince Yan's private army. The force of this lineup had surrounded her small house like a watertight one.Even among the servants who served her, there were two women who had practiced the ways of assassins.

This situation lasted until noon on the third day.On this day, Prince Yan hurried over, invited her to the banquet respectfully, and expressed his kindness to her very politely.

It seems that the news of Chu people's defeat has reached his ears.

Immediately, Wei Luo bid farewell and left.After staying with each other for several times, Prince Yan saw that she was extremely determined to leave, so he secretly gave her three carts of jewels and brocade forgings.

Wei Luo looked at this man who was smiling very sincerely, and knew in his heart that he was trying to repair the situation after a dead sheep, and wanted to repair the relationship with Jingling by himself.According to Wei Luo's expectation, when Jing Ling first ascended the throne, there must be some actions, and he really didn't have time to take revenge actions against Qin and Chu.

Therefore, after she readily accepted Prince Yan's kindness, she turned and left Weicheng with Prince Yan's smile on her face.
