Take the city to the Warring States

Chapter 259 Chapter 250
The personal guard waved the spear in his hand, seeing that the two sides were about to fight again, Zuo Zhi reacted instantly: "Separate them".

Hundreds of soldiers of the Jicheng defenders heard the order, and rushed forward without any time to separate the two sides.

The guards in Ling Zhijun's mansion had already been frightened. At this time, they saw the guards of Jicheng rushing forward, and retreated along the river.

The personal guards refused to stop, and chased straight ahead, but were stopped by hundreds of guards of Jicheng.

Seeing this, Zhao Wuming immediately shouted at the guards rushing ahead: "Stop".

The personal guard stopped immediately upon hearing the order, then turned and ran towards the courtyard behind him.

Zuo Zhi heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the two sides stop fighting.Looking at Linghu Yi, he felt a headache again.

Linghu Yi looked at the bodyguard lying in a pool of blood, and before Zuo Zhi could say anything, he immediately showed displeasure: "Eunuch Ling came here in a hurry, what's the matter?".

"Is it too much for a gentleman to besiege the residence of an envoy?"Zuo Zhi didn't expect that Linghu Yi would dare to ask the first question, and his face was a little ugly.

Linghu Yi sneered, and his eyes were full of arrogance: "If you kill an envoy from a country, you will kill it. Besides, Zhao State is in danger of destroying the country, so why should we worry about it?".

"How can a bastard, a mere child, talk about state affairs."Seeing that Linghu Yi was so ignorant of current affairs, Zuo Zhi became furious, and scolded Linghu Yi regardless of his feelings.

Zuo Zhi had been in the high position of eunuch for a long time, so he was naturally dignified when he got angry at this time.Linghu Yi couldn't help being startled, and a look of fear flashed in her eyes.The words were on his lips, but he swallowed them abruptly.

Zuo Zhi looked at Linghu Yi in front of him, feeling upset, his face livid: "Take the guards of your mansion and go back immediately, if you hesitate, it will be a disaster to your father."

"Eunuch Order".Linghu Yi almost gritted his teeth and said these three words, but seeing that the situation was stronger than others, he could only endure it, and looked around the more than 100 guards: "Go back to the mansion".

The guards didn't dare to stay, they hurriedly carried the companion who was lying in a pool of blood, and followed Linghu Yi back.

Watching Linghu Yi and his party walk away, Zuo Zhi got off his horse and sighed in his heart, and saluted Zhao Wuming: "I was late and surprised the King of Han."

"How can a mere hundred bodyguards be frightened? On the contrary, these solitary bodyguards don't know how to attack, so they invited the eunuch Ling Haihan."Zhao Wuming replied to Zuo Zhi.

Zuo Zhi saw that Zhao Wuming didn't want to stay any longer, and then said goodbye to Zhao Wuming: "Everything is over here, and there are still some sundries in the palace, so I won't bother the King of Han."

"The eunuch ordered to wait a moment."Seeing Zuo Zhi as long as he wanted, Zhao Wuming immediately stopped him.

Zuo Zhi was startled, and pretended to be ignorant: "I don't know what else the King of Han has to do?".

"I heard that the talented person is a gentleman of Lord Lingzhi. In order to avoid misunderstanding between the two countries, I went to the palace alone to talk with King Yan in detail."Zhao Wuming explained to Zuo Zhi.

Zuo Zhi refused without hesitation: "This is a trivial matter. Besides, the king is not in the palace at this time. If the King of Han enters the palace, I'm afraid it will be a waste of time."

"Not in the palace? How did I hear that King Yan seems to have summoned the prince in the morning?"Zhao Wuming asked Zuo Zhi back.

Zuo Zhi was at a loss for words, and a look of embarrassment appeared in his heart: "Just now the king has left the palace. As for where he went, we don't know."

"I heard that Lord Lingzhi has 20 elites in his hands, guarding Lingzhi and Guzhu. It can be said that he has a high position and authority. Just now his son led two hundred guards to besiege Gu's residence. It seems that Yan Guo does not welcome Gu."After Zhao Wuming finished speaking, he sighed to Zuo Zhi.

Zuo Zhi quickly explained, but before he could say it, he was blocked by Zhao Wuming's voice.

Zhao Wuming looked around at the guards, Sun Buer, Qing Que, Shen Chuan and the others: "Since the Yan Kingdom doesn't welcome Gu, why does Gu have the cheek to stay here in Yan Kingdom? Besides, even if he doesn't send troops to the Yan Kingdom, why does Gu have the guts to stay here? Are there no soldiers to send?".

"Pass down the order and pack up again. Go to Shanwu at noon tomorrow, and Gudang will send another 30 troops from Daijun to attack Zhongshan."Anger appeared on Zhao Wuming's face, and he gave orders to everyone.

Sun Bu'er, Qing Que, Shen Chuan and more than a hundred personal guards bowed and said "No".

"The eunuch, please go back, and don't come after noon tomorrow. Since the country of Yan does not welcome orphans, Han and Zhao will not welcome the country of Yan after noon tomorrow."After Zhao Wuming finished speaking, without waiting for Zuo Zhi to say anything, he led Sun Buer and the others directly to the courtyard.

Zuo Zhi was startled, and hurriedly dissuaded him: "The king of Han is here to welcome you from all over the country of Yan, so why would you say no?".

"Since you are called the King of Guhan, let me ask you. This is how your country of Yan receives you, a king of another? Turn a blind eye, or turn a blind eye?".Zhao Wuming turned to look at Zuo Zhi, and questioned him.

Hearing Zhao Wuming's questioning, Zuo Zhi's lips moved: "How can you meet the King of Han when the King is not in the palace?"

"Once the State of Wei sends troops, the State of Qin will definitely retreat. At that time, the Han and Zhao countries will join forces, and the State of Zhongshan will be destroyed. The State of Yan will send troops to the State of Zhongshan, and Gu will discuss with the King of Yan about the destruction of Donghu, and the State of Yan will not send troops to the State of Zhongshan. For Zhao Guo's aid, what's the harm in allying with Donghu to attack Yan? Such humiliation will surely be repaid a hundredfold."Zhao Wuming's expression darkened, as if he had been greatly humiliated.

Hearing Zhao Wuming's 30 troops, Zuo Zhi gasped.If you add the 50 troops in the Zhao Kingdom, wouldn't it be impossible to have a million troops in the Han Kingdom? .In this way, the strength of the Han State is no less than that of any of the Seven Kingdoms in the world today: "The King of Han is calm, the old slave will go back and look for the king, and there will be an answer before noon tomorrow."

"Gu is here waiting for the king of Yan."After Zhao Wuming finished speaking, he led Qingque, Sun Buer and the others directly to the courtyard.

Zuo Zhi watched Zhao Wuming walk in, sighed in his heart and didn't dare to say more, quickly got on his horse and left with the guards of Jicheng.It's really infuriating to not want to be ruined by Linghu Yi, a good plan to delay.

Zhao Wuming and others in the courtyard smiled, and Shen Chuan bowed to Zhao Wuming: "Your Majesty is a good means, take advantage of the situation to get angry and see if he, King Yan, can still sit still."

"I don't see King Yan for a day, and I feel uneasy for a day. Since Linghu Yi sent Gu an excuse, why didn't Gu make good use of it."Zhao Wuming explained to Shen Chuan.

Qing Que couldn't help being a little puzzled: "Isn't it that we are begging the King of Yan when we come to the Kingdom of Yan? If the King of Yan doesn't come tomorrow, are we really leaving?"

"We are begging the King of Yan, so why isn't the King of Yan begging us?"Sun Buer replied to Qingque.

Qingque still didn't understand, Shen Chuan looked at Qingque and explained to him: "You can rest assured about this matter, even if King Yan doesn't come, Yan Kingdom will give us an answer."

"With the help of the State of Zhao, our Han State is not without the strength to fight against the Donghu and the Xiongnu. At this time, we can naturally face the Yan State calmly. Even without him, the Yan State, Gu also has the confidence to fight the Donghu."Zhao Wuming added to the words of the two, thinking of the national power of Han at this time, a sense of pride filled the air.

Qing Que looked at the three people in front of her, and gradually fell into deep thought.
