The Peerless God-level System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 139 prerequisites
For Wu Ju, Yuan Yao still had some understanding. Historically, when Liu Bei was defeated by Cao Cao in Jingzhou, he had the idea of ​​defecting to him. It can be seen that this person is also somewhat capable.

As for Qu Jing didn't go to the Shi's house as he thought, but ran to Cangwu, although it was beyond his expectation, but he didn't care too much, no matter where Qu Jing went, he led his troops to kill him That's it.

Yuan Yao has lived in Nanhai County for more than ten days. Since Panyu City is the old nest of the district scene, it naturally hoards a lot of money and food. Du Ruhui is taking care of everything in the south.

Every day, if there is a major incident, all you need to do is send the news to Nanhai County as soon as possible. Yuan Yao is 1 rest assured about Du Ruhui, and it happens that he can concentrate on dealing with the heroes of Jiaozhou.

Now that Wu Ju had intervened, Yuan Yao naturally did not dare to take it lightly, and hurriedly called Li Ji.

Yuan Yao handed the secret report to Li Ji, with a serious face, he said: "Cang Wu Wu Ju, this man has tens of thousands of soldiers, and Jing Zhou is behind him, if he goes to attack, Jing Zhou will probably not sit idly by."

Li Ji read the secret report, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he sighed with palms: "This person Qu Jing has no schemes, but this time he did a good deed. Lingling Laigong, I also know him, although this person is intoxicated Fame and fortune, but he is really talented. If Wu Ju really followed what Lai Gong said, we would be in danger. Now because of the scenery, the two have turned against each other. Our chance has come. My lord, why don't you send someone to contact Lai Gong? See if you can win them over?"

Yuan Yao weighed the secret letter in his hand, and asked with some doubts: "What the spies reported is all hearsay, I'm afraid it may not be true. Now our army is sending troops to the South China Sea, and Cangwu is going to be chaotic. Under the threat from outside, the bandit army will also Should we work together for a while?"

Li Ji chuckled, but stood up and said, "My lord's words are reasonable, but everyone in Jiaozhou knows that Lai Gong and Wu Ju are at odds with each other. I am willing to go to Cangwu to meet Lai Gong. , to find out the truth."

Yuan Yao was shocked, and hurriedly stopped him: "No, the enemy is unknown, and the military commander is going here. If Lai Gong has evil intentions, wouldn't it be like a sheep going into a tiger's mouth?"

Li Ji was very moved in his heart, he straightened his clothes, restrained his face and saluted and said: "Since I am a servant of the lord, it is my duty to share the worries of the lord, how can I be willing to ignore the important things of the lord in order to cherish myself. Lai Gong here Man, who has lived in Cangwu for a long time, is also a man who uses his life in his hands, if the lord gets his help, breaking Cangwu will be as easy as flipping the palm of the hand, please also ask the lord to complete, let me go to Cangwu as an envoy!"

Seeing Li Ji's resolute attitude, Yuan Yao knew that it would be useless to try harder, but he was worried about Li Ji's safety after all.

Yuan Yao had no choice but to support Li Ji with both hands, and nodded indifferently. Although he didn't speak, the meaning in it was already obvious.

Li Ji was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, my lord, for fulfilling the task."

Yuan Yao asked again with concern: "Since the military commander is going, how many servants should he bring with him? It's gratifying that the matter is successful, but it's okay to lose. Why don't you call Yanyun Eighteen to come over and protect you?"

Li Ji thought for a while, and replied: "It doesn't need many people, just me and Yu Chigong are enough. If there are too many people, Wu Ju may become suspicious."

Yuan Yao nodded, ordered someone to find Yu Chigong, and said: "Let's go today, everything will be arranged by the military advisor, and the security of the military advisor must be better protected!"

Yuchi respectfully patted his chest, his eyes lit up, and he said loudly: "My lord, don't worry, I, Yuchi Gong, will definitely live up to my mission and die."

"You don't have to, just wait and do your best!"

This was a dangerous game, Yuan Yao's face was gloomy, and he patted Yu Chigong's shoulder heavily, with a thousand things going on, but he didn't know how to start it.

Yuchi Gong is an iron-clad man, and his actions are also in a hurry. He immediately changed his clothes and changed back to the outfit of a ranger. His body also showed his original wildness. He was an extremely brave ranger at a glance. The two bid farewell to Yuan Yao and pretended to be wanderers. The merchants hurried all the way, looking at Cangwu and leaving.

The matter was of great importance, the two stayed overnight at Xiaoxing and rushed to Cangwu City.

At this time, Cangwu City already had some stormy weather.

On the top of the city, there are civilian men called by Wu Juzheng everywhere, who are reinforcing the city wall. A lot of antlers and horses have been added recently outside the city. Moreover, there are a large number of soldiers patrolling on the city wall. Han people and Yue people came and went in a hurry.

Muli gathered close and close followers, nearly 1 people, to follow Qu Jing.

In this way, the power of the district scene has recovered, and the old department of the district scene who escaped from Nanhai County, hearing that the old master is still there, also came to vote one after another.

Although Wu Ju congratulated on the surface, he was wary in his heart. After all, Ou Jing had a criminal record, and he was afraid that Ou Jing would suddenly bite back. However, now that they both have a common enemy, although Wu Ju regretted not The district scene should be included, so we can only allocate a military camp in the north of the city to the district scene, and send his confidants to station in the north of the city.

Qu Jing also knew that he was poor, so in order to avoid suspicion, he took the initiative to hand over the soldiers to the generals, and lived alone in the prefect's mansion to win Wu Ju's trust.

Entering Cangwu City, Li Ji was not in a hurry to go to see Lai Gong, but first ordered Yu Chigong to inquire around, and found out Lai Gong's travel rules, and then chose the daytime noon, changed his Confucian shirt, and went to Lai Gong's house See you at the mansion.

At noon that day, Lai Gong was chatting with his close friend in the study.

Ever since Wu Ju refused to listen to his persuasion and brought the area into the city, Lai Gong was also disheartened, knowing that there was no chance for the two of them to reconcile. Moreover, Wu Ju was powerful, and now Nanhai County was also occupied by Yuan Yao. The opportunity to fight has been completely gone, so he has plans to return to Jingzhou as a straggler.

However, Jingnan is not peaceful now, and Lai Gong is a little embarrassed.

Hearing that a literati asked for an interview, Lai Gong, who was talking about Xingtou, was also curious. He glanced at his close friend and wanted to refuse. Since someone wants to see you, Mr. Lai still needs to meet him, so as not to cause criticism."

Lai Gong couldn't help it, so he had to apologize: "How good is this, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I'm about to have a chat with you, how can I meet other people?"

The man laughed again, pointed at the screen and said, "It's rare for someone to come, so I'll hide behind and listen to your words. If this person has talent and learning, we can also keep him and gossip together. Wouldn't it be interesting?"

Lai Gong took the palm, and he had nothing else to do. He wanted to do these elegant things, so he nodded and said: "Just follow what you said, and hide behind. Don't make a sound. I'll test this man's talent!"

After finishing speaking, the people changed to new tea and invited the guests to enter.

Lai Gong also went out to greet him, and when he arrived at the front hall, he saw Li Ji walking calmly, with a refined demeanor, possessing an air of majesty, and Yu Chigong beside him was walking like a tiger.

Lai Gong was shocked, the so-called observation of people and looks, knowing his character and learning, and seeing Li Ji's good appearance, the two exchanged polite greetings and greeted each other, then welcomed Li Ji into the inner hall, and sat down as guests and hosts, Lai Gong asked first Said: "Dare to ask brother Taiwan's name taboo, but Lai's eyesight is clumsy and he can't recognize it."

Li Ji cupped his hands slightly, and said with a smile: "I, Li Ji, is a subordinate of Yuan Yangzhou who joined the army. He heard that Brother Lai is refined and hospitable, so he came here uninvited. Please don't blame Brother Lai!"

"what!"

Lai Gong was shocked, and immediately got up to pull out the sword on the wall, but Yuchi Gong who was next to him snorted coldly, his eyes, like knives, glared at Lai Gong fiercely, Lai Gong was even more shocked, but it was Instead of pulling out the sword, he came to his senses and secretly said, these two people dared to come alone, but he made a fuss, but his momentum was weak.

Anyway, they are all his subordinates outside, how can these two people do anything to him?

After experiencing the surprise at the beginning, Lai Gong also calmed down, sat down again, took a sip of tea, stabilized his mind, and said in a low voice: "Since you are Yuan Yao's subordinate and are not staying in Nanhai County, why did you sneak into Cangwu properly? What is your intention? "

Li Ji glanced at Lai Gong appreciatively, this Lai Gong, not to mention anything else, just being able to calm down so quickly and regain his master's aura is not easy.

Immediately, Li Ji didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly: "Brother Lai thinks Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Shixie of Jiaozhou, what about these two?"

Lai Gong stared at Li Ji without saying a word.

Li Ji didn't show weakness either, he looked at Lai Gong indifferently, and didn't say any more.

Finally, Lai Gong, who was silent for a long time, said: "Liu Jingsheng dominates Jianghan, and the hero of Shiweiyan's side is well known in the world."

Li Ji sneered and sighed: "It is said that brother Lai is a great talent, but today he sees him in name only!"

Lai Gong stared, and said with a stern face: "Could it be that you came today to humiliate me with words? If so, blame me for having no eyes!"

"you dare!"

Yu Chigong's eyes were red, obviously, he committed an old problem again and wanted to find someone to fight.

Li Ji coughed, pulled Yu Chigong back, and didn't care about the bearded and staring Lai Gong at all, and said with a smile: "Am I wrong? Liu Biao is a man who is tolerant on the outside, but jealous on the inside. Emphasis on talents, there are many sages in Jingzhou, but they can't be used, and they are talking about dominating Jingzhou, and they are about to die. , Entering and exiting Yueli, is it the work of a minister, such a person, who is the hero of the party?"

Lai Gong also sneered, and said: "Could it be that Yuan Yao is an outstanding man by taking in thieves and attacking prefectures and counties?"

Li Ji smiled lightly, without even thinking about it, he said: "My lord is thirsty for talents, and he is only talented. With these two points, can't he be regarded as an outstanding person?"

Lai Gong froze, but couldn't find a reason to refute. Obviously, although many of Yuan Yao's subordinates were penniless at the beginning, with the rise of Yuan Yao, the names of these people became more and more famous. Ability, even the enemy, cannot be ignored. Although Cangwu is far away, there is still news. Naturally, what Li Ji said is the truth.

The two of them remained silent again, they both drank tea and drank till the end, when Li Ji put down the tea bowl, Lai Gong said hesitantly: "I know why you came, but Liu Jingsheng treated me well, you are still dead This heart."

Li Ji was even more disdainful, looked at Lai Gong and said: "I can't see it, Liu Biao first granted you the position of governor, then was demoted to prefect, and then downgraded to today's little school captain, is this considered kind?"

Lai Gong's face was burning hot when he was caught face-to-face. However, for Li Ji's rudeness, he didn't send anyone to catch them. Instead, he sat there strangely, thinking about his own thoughts.

Li Ji is not in a hurry. Before he came, he already knew Lai Gong in detail. He knew that this person is very keen on fame and fortune. He stayed in Cangwu and wasted years of time. What he did was to arouse Lai Gong's long-suppressed resentment, and then throw out an olive branch at the right time. Now, Lai Gong's resentment has obviously been aroused. He can only wait and see what Lai Gong's decision is before he can act according to circumstances. .

However, at this time, the person hiding behind the screen had been sitting for a long time and moved his body a little. How could this slight movement be hidden from the vigilant Yu Chigong? someone.

Li Ji's expression changed drastically, and he immediately looked at Lai Gong. The reason why he dared to speak immediately without beating around the bush was because he saw that there was no one here, but there was someone hiding inside. If this person was Wu Ju's, I'm afraid they would More bad times than good times.

Lai Gong noticed the abnormality of the two of them, and after thinking about it, he understood that this was the case. However, just as he was about to explain, Yu Chigong on the opposite side rushed over like a hungry tiger. He was ordered by Yuan Yao to die. How dare you be careless in protecting Li Ji's safety, I just hope that Lai Gong can be captured, taken as a hostage, and escaped from the city.

Li Ji on the side saw it, but he was in a hurry, and shouted loudly: "Stop!"

At the same time, from behind the screen, a figure also jumped out in a few steps, but he didn't see any movement. With one hand, he had already grabbed Lai Gong's collar and dragged him to the back.

Lai Gong also reacted, took the opportunity to jump to the corner of the wall, pulled out his sword, and opened his mouth to call the guards in, but his close friend was quick-sighted, covered Lai Gong's mouth, grabbed Lai Gong's right hand, and stretched it hard. Lai Gong's long sword in his right hand directly stabbed Yu Chigong who was rushing towards him.

Seeing the long sword stabbing, Yu Chigong hurriedly backed away, and hearing Li Ji yelling again, he had no choice but to retreat to Li Ji's side, his eyes still staring at the person who appeared vigilantly.

From his feeling, Yu Chigong knew that the person who appeared behind had some kung fu foundation and swordsmanship, although he couldn't get on the stage, he was able to support himself in self-defense.

Both sides were startled, but Li Ji reacted quickly. Seeing the man stop Lai Gong from yelling, knowing that there was no malice, he also stopped Yu Chigong, smiled and saluted, "I'm Li Ji."

The man supported Lai Gong, gave him a reassuring look, and the two of them sat together, the man got up from the table, and said: "So it's Mr. Li Ji, I'm Xue Zong, brother Lai's friend, just now you came in , I can’t avoid it in a hurry, I can only hide behind the screen, please forgive me.”

Li Ji nodded with a smile, looked at Xue Zong, and saw that although his face was a little pale, but his lines were firm, he knew that this person's mind was also very high. Knowing martial arts, it can be seen that he is also a talent, so he can't help but respect each other.

Xue Zong saw that Li Ji was calm and unhurried, even if he appeared suddenly, he was very calm, so he couldn't help secretly praising him, cupping his hands and laughing: "It is said that Mr. Li Ji is clever and clever, and he has strategized strategies. When I saw him today, he really lived up to his reputation."

Lai Gong calmed down, he glanced at Yu Chigong vigilantly, and sat a little farther away, secretly thinking that he also needs to hire some expert guards around him, he can't treat people so recklessly, fortunately, Li Ji who came today is here to be a lobbyist Yes, if it was an assassin, he would probably be dead already.

However, Lai Gong is sophisticated in the end, but he didn't show it on the surface. At the moment, everyone has seen him again.

Lai Gong didn't shy away from Li Ji's presence, and asked Xue Zong directly: "Just now, what we said just now, Jingwen also understood, tell me, what should I do?"

Li Ji glanced at it in surprise. Unexpectedly, it was hard to imagine that Lai Gong would take such an important matter out to consult this young scribe. Moreover, it seemed that Xue Zong's decision was the same as his decision.

Seeing Li Ji's surprise, Lai Gong couldn't help pointing at Xue Zong with a smile: "Don't look at Jingwen's young age, but his talent is ten times better than mine. I can survive until now and have not been swallowed up by Wu Ju. It all depends on Jingwen's advice. Liu Biao, I can't count on it for a long time. To be honest, I even have the idea of ​​returning to the field. However, since Mr. Li Ji is here, I don't mind giving it a go. The soldiers and horses under your command are at the disposal of Yuan Boping at any time!"

Li Ji was shocked, he didn't understand Xue Zong, but seeing Lai Gong's praise, he also knew that his talent was extremely high, and it was difficult for him to persuade him.

Regarding Lai Gong's evaluation of himself, Xue Zong was a little embarrassed. He smiled humbly, first glanced at Li Ji, and asked: "May I ask Mr. Li, is Yuan Yangzhou here to punish the district scene, or is it for Jiaozhou?" place?"

Such a question is already considered extremely bold. After all, this is Yuan Yao’s secret. However, looking at Xue Zong, Li Ji knew that this person might not be convinced if he did not come up with strong information, so he said frankly: "Once you have the South China Sea , the land of Jiaozhou, my lord will not let it go."

Xue Zong nodded, pondered for a while, and then said: "Since Yuan Yangzhou intends to invest in the whole territory of Jiaozhou, I have nothing to do with it, but there is one more thing, so that my lord can know that a few days ago, Wu Ju had sent A messenger contacted Gao Xiang in the north of Cangwu. This person also has [-] soldiers and horses, and all of them are elite Yue people. If you can defeat Gao Xiang's army within three days, we will surrender! , there is no other word, if you can't, please return, sir, forgive us for not obeying our orders!"

After finishing speaking, he stood up calmly and made a gesture of seeing off the guests.

Naturally, Li Ji didn't want to say anything more. He already understood what he said, and it would be no different if he said more. After all, to ask them to surrender, they still need to show their strength. If they don't have enough strength, it's useless to say more.
