girder.Wei Palace.

Wei King Wei Jiu is calling Deng Zong, Wei Bao and other civil and military personnel to discuss how to deal with the 20 Qin army that has already besieged the city. At this time, Liu Ji also led [-] cavalry into the city early to meet Wei Jiu and was worshiped as the left general Command the soldiers and horses of all the cities in the east of Wei State.

"Brother Wang! In my opinion, why not lead the army and attack the Qin army with the left general outside the city! There is still a chance of winning!" Wei Bao took the lead in coming out from the second place among the generals, and proposed with his hands clasped.

After Deng Zong returned to Daliang with an army of [-], he resolutely did not allow Wei Bao to lead his army to take the initiative to attack.But Wei Bao relied on being the younger brother of the King of Wei and the general of the State of Wei, and insisted on leading the army to intercept the invading Qin army, and finally failed miserably!The [-] troops led out were all wiped out by the Qin army.

At that time, there were only 14 soldiers in Daliang City plus Deng Zong's [-] troops, and most of them were newly recruited soldiers.Tens of thousands of veterans were wiped out in the first battle of Wei Bao, which made Wei Jiu furious.After Wei Bao fled back to Daliang, he was demoted to General Right by Wei Jiu who was still angry.

Deng Zong was worshiped by Wei Jiu as a general named Yang Wujun, responsible for commanding all the people in Daliang City to defend the Qin army.

Although Deng Zong has become a general, Wei Bao still refuses to accept Deng Zong's control because he is the younger brother of King Wei.In addition, Wei Bao no longer had soldiers and horses in his hands, and became a poor commander, which made him resent Deng Zong who stepped on his superior position.

"Your Majesty! The last general thinks it's impossible!" After Wei Bao finished speaking, Deng Zong clasped his hands and said. "The Qin army is coming in a menacing manner, plus the previous rounds wiped out all [-] of my elite. If you send troops to fight against Qin at this time, even if there are soldiers from the father of the father to respond, the outcome will be unpredictable!"

"Your Majesty! What the General said is right! The last general also thinks that the main thing is to stick to the defense. If there is a chance, it will not be too late to send troops to fight the Qin army!"

Sima Ang was a good friend of Deng Zong before he gained power, and now Deng Zong is the general of the country, Sima Ang just worships under Deng Zong's name and advances and retreats together.But in today's Daliang, there are only five generals in command.They are Sima Ang, Deng Zong, Wei Bao, Liu Ji, and Ma Zhou. Among these five, Deng Zong and Sima Ang have the most soldiers and horses, reaching 11.Liu Ji had only [-] soldiers in the city, and the remaining [-] were stationed outside the city.There are only [-] soldiers and horses in the imperial guards, and Wei Bao only has [-] personal guards left in his hands.

Liu Ji established himself as a faction, and not making enemies with Wei Bao and Deng Zong would also mean not making good friends with them.Ma Zhou belongs to the faction of the King of Wei. He knows that without the King of Wei, he is nothing, and he is just a person who obeys the orders of the king.

Due to various reasons, Wei Wangjiu agreed with Deng Zong's opinion very much.Immediately nodded and said: "Yang Wujun's words are right! The morale of the Qin army is high now, if you rush to send troops, you will surely return in a disastrous defeat! It's better to rely on the city and wait for the prime minister to return to the army before going out to fight the Qin army! "

"Your Majesty is wise!" Hearing Wei Wangjiu's words, the officials in the hall even flattered him.

...............

"Brother Wang! Why don't you agree to a certain proposal?" Wei Bao asked very depressed in Wei Jiu's bedroom.

"Brother Leopard! It's not that Brother Wang disagrees with your proposal, it's just that if you want to send troops, you will definitely be blocked by Deng Zong and others. And Deng Zong and others will not send a single soldier. At that time, they will have to come from the forbidden army." Pull out troops. You have already thrown all the [-] imperial troops on the battlefield, if you throw away the [-] more soldiers and horses, will anyone listen to what I say, Brother King of Daliang City?" Wei Jiu knew Wei Bao's intentions. Depressed, knowing that with Wei Bao's IQ, he couldn't understand why he followed Deng Zong and others' wishes and didn't send troops to fight.

"Although Zhoushi has more than 11 troops in the south, far water cannot save the near fire! You should know that Han Guang, under the command of Wu Chen, established himself as the king of Yan! Deng Zong now has [-] troops, compared with the troops he had at that time. The [-] Han Guang is even more! In addition, the Gu Wang was ashamed of Deng Zong at the time, and what he thinks in his heart now, the Gu Wang dare not guess. You should understand the difficulties of the Gu Wang!" After Wei Jiu explained , and told Wei Bao what he thought in detail.

Although Wei Bao is a reckless man, now that he thinks about it, he is a little scared.Hastily cupped his hands and said to Wei Jiu: "Your brother is too reckless! You almost put the king and the Wei country that was finally re-established into a desperate situation, my brother is ashamed of you!"

"Brother Leopard! Just remember, in the future, make a plan before you act. That's the best repayment for your brother!" Seeing this, Wei Jiu was very pleased, and immediately patted Wei Bao on the shoulder and said.

"Your brother must keep it in mind!" Wei Bao nodded immediately.

The two brothers talked about some family issues, and then Wei Bao bid farewell to Wei Jiu and left Wei Palace.

After Wei Bao left, Wei Jiu summoned Ma Zhou and his confidant Gongsun Miao.

"I don't know what's bothering the king? Come and listen to the ministers, so that the ministers can share the worries of the king!" After both of them arrived, Gongsun Miao said to Wei Jiu.

"Now that the words of the lonely king of Daliang City have come out of this palace, it's beginning to be useless!" Wei Jiu didn't answer Gongsun Miao, but looked outside the palace and sighed.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to be so worried! Then Deng Zong dared not risk the displeasure of the world, and openly rebelled against himself when the Qin army besieged the city. Besides, Deng Zong is not an ambitious person. The king should relax!" Gongsun Miao Hearing Wei Jiu's exclamation, why didn't he know what Wei Jiu was worried about, so he said it right away.

"Oh? This Deng Zong has no ambitions? I don't think so!" Wei Jiu was a little stunned when he heard this, and immediately retorted. "Then Deng Zong used to be a general under the command of Zhang Chu and Chen Sheng, and he followed Zhou Xiangguo to the north to attack the city. If he hadn't agreed with Zhou Xiangguo to support the lonely king, it is still unknown whether the Wei Kingdom can be restored!"

Gongsun Miao smiled when he heard the words, and then said: "Since the king knows that Deng Zong and Zhou Xiangguo supported the king to restore the country, he should also know that if Deng Zong did not agree to stand on his own, he should be the lord of the country now! But he Why did you agree to support the king with Zhou Xiangguo?"

"The Lonely King doesn't really understand!" Wei Jiu paused for a moment, and then said in some astonishment.

"Deng Zong is ambitious! His ambition is to make his family stand among the nobles, and he can become the pillar of a country! Otherwise, he himself became the king back then, and he would have allowed the king to restore the country? Therefore Wang Shang, rest assured! Deng Zong is the same person as Zhou Xiangguo, he can be trusted and reused!" Seeing this, Gongsun Miao told Wei Jiu what he was thinking.
