Outside the tent, the head of the guards took orders and left.
"What is the meaning of this, Your Majesty?"
Confused.
This time Chu State dispatched a full 15 troops, which has already consumed countless food and grass.
If he retreated rashly, Lord Chunshen would very likely be reprimanded by the court after returning without success.
At least one charge of fear of war is inescapable.
Chun Shenjun shook his head and said:
"The letter said that Hanguan was taken by the king of Han, and the king was furious, and wanted to use all the troops of the whole country to attack Han.
"The Marquis reckons that the King's will to let the Marquis withdraw his troops will come soon."
"This……"
The confidant has an unbelievable expression.
"But now that the Qi people are working hard and going on an expedition, it is bound to be difficult for us to stand against our army for a long time.
"After a long time, their supplies can't keep up, and they will definitely withdraw their troops. This is an excellent opportunity for me, Da Chu, to take down Lu!
"If you retreat rashly at this time, it will be tantamount to handing over the country of Lu. How could your majesty be so unwise?"
"Hey!"
How could Mr. Chunshen understand what his confidant said, but the king's order was hard to violate, and he was helpless.
"Your Majesty had previously rejected all opinions and appointed Zhao Baixi as a general. After being defeated by the Han army, he pushed all the crimes on the Qu family for the sake of face, and even killed all of the Qu family. It has already caused an uproar in the court. .
"If the Han people cannot be driven away this time, the King's prestige will definitely plummet.
"That's why Ben Hou estimates that the king will definitely do everything he can to defeat the Han army."
"In Your Majesty's eyes, what is the State of Lu compared to his face?"
This remark can be said to be heartbreaking every word, and the confidant fell silent immediately.
There are such kings in the state of Chu, it is really hard to describe them in one word!
Just as the tent fell silent, there was a sound of footsteps outside.
"My lord, the king's envoy is waiting at the gate of the camp!"
Hearing the words, the confidant's body shook, and he looked at his lord in surprise.
……
At the beginning of the Chinese lanterns, the lanterns are hung high.
It was drizzling outside, adding a bit of haziness to the night.
In the city lord's mansion, Cao Chao was munching at his desk.
The hall door slammed softly, a gust of wind blew past, and two black figures quietly appeared in the hall.
Zhuanpo and Miehun came to Cao Chao and knelt down together.
The bodies of the two girls were wet, and the tight leather jackets soaked in rain were tightly attached to their bodies, showing their graceful and slender figures.
"Owner……"
Before the two girls could speak, Cao Chao grabbed the wine bar in front of him and handed it to the two sisters.
"Have a sip of wine to warm up before we talk."
The two girls were stunned when they heard the words, and looked at the wine baron in front of them with complicated eyes.
They grew up in the trap since they were young, wandering between life and death all year round, how have they ever been so cared for by others?
Even if he surrendered to Cao Chao later, he learned art from the startled salamander.
But Jingxi has a cold temper, and he will not speak more than ten sentences with the two women on weekdays, let alone show any caring behavior.
Now that they are suddenly being cared about, the two sisters suddenly feel unreal.
Seeing that the two sisters hadn't moved for a long time, Cao Chao handed Jiujue a little more.
"Why are you still standing there, drink!"
Immediately, he remembered something and added something.
"Don't worry, this wine widow hasn't drunk yet!"
It's okay not to say this, but the faces of the two sisters turned red instantly when they said this.
Zhuanpo hurriedly took the wine jue, pursed his red lips lightly, obediently drank half of it, then handed it to his sister Miehun.
After the two sisters drank, they finally remembered the business and said hastily.
"My master, the main force of the Chu people is currently stationed in Wu County, and there has been no change for the time being."
Cao Chao heard the words and continued to ask,
"Are the people of Chu constantly transporting food into the city?"
After thinking for a while, the two women seemed to think of something, and said quickly,
"When we came back, we saw Chu soldiers looting the surrounding villages. Thinking about it now, they should be robbing the people of food."
"now it's right!"
"No wonder the Canglang King failed to find out the movements of the Chu people's main force. It turned out that they hid in the city."
Cao Chao muttered to himself.
"From this point of view, the people of Chu really want to throw the whole country's soldiers to attack my big man."
After finishing speaking, he looked at the two women again, and said approvingly:
"This time, the two of you have inquired about the movement of the Chu people's main force. You have done a good job, and you should be rewarded!
"Tell the widow, what reward do you want?"
Hearing this, the two women knelt down on one knee.
"My subordinate was taken in by the King, and I don't need any rewards, I just want to stay by the King's side."
How clever Cao Chao is, Dang even heard the admiration in the two women's voices, and couldn't help feeling proud.
I didn't expect that Lao Tzu would be able to get along to the day when a beautiful woman threw himself into his arms, and he was still a pair of twins.
It's cool!
Slowly came to the two women, stretched out his hand to gently caress the cheeks of the two women, and said softly:
"Eat something first, then go to have a good rest, and go out with me tomorrow."
When the two women heard this, surprise flashed across their faces.
This means accepting them.
In joy, he quickly raised his head, and his two pretty faces like melon seeds voluntarily rubbed against Cao Chao's big hands, as if two well-behaved kittens were acting like a spoiled child to their master.
Two blushes rose on her fair face, and the two pairs of long and narrow phoenix eyes were already filled with affection.
……
State of Chu, above the school grounds.
"Soldiers, let's go!"
Chapter 299 Sneak Attack on the Granary of Chu State
In Chu State, above the school grounds, banners are flying.
30 troops ready to go.
The heads are surging, the helmets are bright, the team is strict, and the spirit of killing is full of air,
In the army formation, General Dan Chu was sitting on the chariot, looking solemnly ahead.
Having just been appointed by the King of Chu as the chief general of the Western Expedition, Dan Chu felt pressured.
For this expedition, the king of Chu did not hesitate to recall the army that had gone on an expedition to Lu, and willingly handed over the land of Lu to the people of Qi.
For this reason, the ministers once opposed fiercely in the court, but they were suppressed by the king of Chu.
Because of this, several ministers were asked to retire and return to their hometowns, which completely angered most of the courtiers.
Now every time he goes to court, the atmosphere will quickly fall into dead silence.
Except for the Zhao family who had taken refuge in King Chu and the officials from the Zhao family, few ministers spoke up, and not many ministers were willing to offer advice and suggestions for the court.
Now the seemingly calm court is like a volcano, which may erupt at any time.
All that is missing is an opportunity.
And was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the army, Dan Chu was undoubtedly erected by the king of Chu and placed on the crater.
Once the army loses, it will be criticized by thousands of people immediately.
The ministers will use Dan Chu as a breakthrough point to attack the King of Chu.
And the King of Chu will throw him out as a scapegoat in order to preserve his prestige.
This is politics.
"call!"
After exhaling heavily, Danchu's expression became firm again.
A pair of tiger eyes seemed to have passed through the high mountains and a long distance, and landed on the camp of the Han army, muttering to himself:
"Han Wang Cao Chao, wait for the old man to meet you for a while!"
After finishing speaking, he suddenly pulled out the long sword from his waist and held it high to the sky,
"Go on!"
……
Wu County, a barn somewhere.
