According to this marching speed, Chu's demise is imminent.

"My dear friends, what should we do now?"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't say a word.

Ever since Liu Biao, the first ruler of Chu State, has always had a serious fear of Cao.Especially Cao Anmin, the king of Qi, beat them to shame.

The water battle on the Yangtze River and the siege of Xiangyang are all past events that Chu State dare not recall.

Now more than 5 soldiers of the Qi army are heading their way, and within a few days they have swept across the Jingbei area.

"Your Majesty, there are only two paths we can take right now." Kou Zhun, the head of civil servants, stood up and said.

"Ai Qing, speak quickly, speak quickly!" Liu Qi was at his wit's end right now, seeing Kou Zhun speak, he boasted that he had grasped at straws.But in fact, there is nothing Kou Zhun can do now.

"The Qi army is powerful, but their purpose is very clear. They just want to occupy Nanyang and other places, condescending, and look down on our Jingzhou land. Since we have no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation, it is better to take the initiative to give them the city. In exchange for a chance to breathe , if we can get the Jingnan army back to the division, we can save the crisis."

"The army conquering the South must not retreat! It's not that you don't know about Li Yuan's son. It is extremely difficult for the army to deploy defenses in Nanling to stop them. If we withdraw the army now, it will be a firefight. If Nanling is lost, we will There will be no chance to block it." Liu Qi's words were affirmative, and Kou Zhun couldn't argue for a while.

"Other than that, we can only find a way to send people to Liu Bei and Li Yuan to report the situation. Please join forces to attack the three countries, and promise that if we can win all of them, our country of Chu will take nothing." Kou Zhun finished speaking, All the strength in his body seemed to be exhausted in an instant, looking at Liu Qi, waiting for his decision.

The Liu royal family started from the great ancestor Liu Bang and has continued to this day. Most of them have become mediocre people, even the children of the royal family.

As Liu Biao's son, Liu Qi's ability is still remarkable.Unfortunately, he lived in the wrong era.

If there is no Cao Anmin, no Fang La, no Zhu Wen, no Li Yuan, he will definitely be able to secure Jingzhou, and even expand the territory in the future, and establish some achievements.

Unfortunately, there are too many heroes in this era.So much that even he himself felt a little numb.

Yang Tian let out a long sigh, and Liu Qi looked at Kou Zhun and said, "Liu Bei's new defeat at Tongguan has no chance of fighting again. Li Yuan is our archenemy, how can he join forces with the widow? From this point of view, the only thing we have to do is to negotiate peace with Qi." There are options."

"Your Majesty, Shengming!" All the civil and military officials quickly flattered and said.

Liu Qi waved his hand and continued to ask: "Nowadays, people in Xiangyang City are in a state of flux. I wonder if there is a suitable candidate for the envoy to Qi State?"

Kou Zhun seemed to have been prepared for a long time, he took a step forward and bowed and said, "I recommend one person."

"who?"

"Nanyang Zhuge Liang's name is Kongming, and his name is Wolong! If this person is sent as an envoy, he will definitely be able to relieve the king's difficulties. If he has this person's assistance, the state of Chu will surely prosper."

"Oh? Isn't that a bit too much?" Liu Qi and Zhuge Liang were originally close, but they hadn't seen each other for a long time, but why Kou Zhun had such a high opinion of him.

"If you want me to say, if the King wins Zhuge Liang, it is like King Wen wins the Grand Duke, and Qi Huan wins Guan Zhong, and Chu will surely recover."

Chapter 832

Outside the Xinye camp, a carriage slowly drove to the gate, but was stopped by the guarded soldiers.

"The military camp is an important place, and outsiders are not allowed to enter."

The curtain was lifted, and a young man leaned out.

"Please let me know that Zhuge Liang, the envoy of the King of Chu, is here to meet Dudu Chen."

The soldiers looked at the person who came, and saw that he was the only one in the carriage, and then went inside quickly to communicate.

Inside the camp, Chen Qingzhi was discussing the military situation with the generals.

Advance all the way, like entering no man's land, fighting for half a lifetime, never fought such a smooth battle.All the officers and men spoke boldly, and even uttered the slogan of fighting all over Xiangyang and Jiaozhou.

Although Chen Qingzhi was also very happy, the more joyful he was, the more calm he seemed.

The dispatch of the army also appeared to be more and more stable, and the guards on all sides of the camp were constantly patrolling, in case the Chu army took advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack.

At this moment, the soldiers outside the gate quickly entered to report the situation.

"Zhuge Liang?" Chen Qingzhi muttered, but there was really no image of this person in his mind.Presumably Liu Qi was afraid of death, so he sent an unknown soldier here.

"Captain, this Zhuge Liang is no ordinary person."

Chen Qingzhi looked up at Su Dingfang beside him: "Does the general know him?"

Su Dingfang shook his head and said: "The general has been fighting in the north, this is the first time Jiangnan has come here, how can he know him. However, I have had contact with Pang Shilang of the Ministry of War, and I have heard him talk about Zhuge Liang."

Chen Qingzhi wore a beard and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Pang Tong is a young talent who came out of Yecheng Academy, and he can be called a hero among the younger generation.Especially in marching and fighting, and in arranging troops, he has his own unique insights.

"What did Shilang Pang say?"

"Pang Shilang said that Zhuge Liang's talent is superior to him. If you want to compare it, I am afraid that only Zhang Liang who is beside Gaozu and Taigong Jiang Shang who is beside King Wen can compare."

Chen Qingzhi took a deep breath, and said secretly: "Such a person has devoted himself to Liu Qi's command. It's really a secret investment by a pearl. If I can get this person to join my country of Qi, it will be a great achievement."

"The next time Zhuge Liang came, he definitely wanted to make peace with our army. The governor must prepare as soon as possible." After finishing speaking, Su Dingfang stepped aside and said nothing.

Chen Qingzhi nodded and asked the soldiers to quickly invite Zhuge Liang to enter.

Accompanied by soldiers, Zhuge Liang wandered through the camp of the Qi army.

The more he looked, the colder his heart became.This time, it was because of Liu Qi's repeated pleas, and the plea of ​​his father-in-law Huang Chengyan.I thought that Qi should have become a proud soldier after winning several battles in a row.But now it seems that everything is my own whimsy.

Not only was the Qi army not paralyzed, but the camp was meticulous and orderly. Even if he led the army to attack by force, it would be difficult to succeed.

Just as he was thinking, he came outside the handsome tent.

"Please take off the saber, sir!" The soldier glanced at Zhuge Liang's waist and shouted sharply at Zhuge Liang.

"Let him come in, Zhuge Kongming won't come all the way to assassinate me!"

Chen Qingzhi's voice came from inside the big tent.The soldiers did not dare to stop them, so they could only let Zhuge Liang in.

"Chu envoy Zhuge Liang to meet with Chen Dadu!" Zhuge Liang bowed and saluted Chen Qingzhi.

Chen Qingzhi came to the front, held his hands up, and asked with a smile: "Kong Ming came all the way, is he going to vote for me?"

Zhuge Liang didn't expect that Chen Qing's arrival would be overwhelming, and he said with a smile: "The governor is too polite, but I was entrusted by others and had to come here!"

Chen Qingzhi smiled without saying a word.

"I don't know if the governor knows the current situation in Jingchu?"

"I don't know!" Chen Qingzhi knew Zhuge Liang's intentions well, so he decided to listen to his intentions first.

"Now Jingchu is governed by the king of Chu in name, but in fact, Li Yuan, the rising Tang state in the south, has already gained the upper hand. Now the counties of Jiaozhou are in his hands. The army of the king of Chu can only barely support the Nanling area. .”

Chen Qingzhi took a sip of tea and asked with a smile: "What do these things have to do with me, what do they have to do with me?"
