Chapter 115: The Entity and the Power (2)
Trouble General Cao and surround this depression. The Chu army is tough. It won't work for a day or two. Let's surround it for a month or two. Now the Chu soldiers have no food and pay. Let's see how long they can last. "
Cao GUI cupped his fists and said, "Yes!"
Fenquan's team was surrounded in the depression, and they heard the shout of "surrender, don't kill" from above for an hour. They all looked at each other, which aroused the fighting spirit of the soldiers on the contrary, and no one said surrender.
However, the supervising army quit. Knowing that they were surrounded, he immediately accused Fengquan and said, "It's all you, what kind of bad plan did you come up with! It's all right now! We are surrounded here, and the Qi people want us to die." Food is running out!"
How could Pingquan not know what the people of Qi were thinking, his face was very gloomy, at this time a soldier said: "General, I have food here, I took it when I ran out just now!"
"I got some here too!"
"I have mine too!"
Everyone talked one after another, but they gathered together the rescued food, which was estimated to be enough for a day or two. As soon as the supervising army saw the food, they immediately pulled it into their arms and kept it from being touched by others.
Everyone's faces were ugly, Ping Quan pondered for a long time, and said: "For the moment, we must find a way to send people to rescue the soldiers."
The supervising army sneered and said, "How can we move reinforcements? The people of Qi are surrounding us!"
Feng Quan said with an ugly face, "Just use the strategy of the people of Qi."
Fuquan seemed to have been inspired, and he wanted to use the same strategy to strike east and west. On the one hand, he clashed and resisted, attracting the attention of Qi's army, and on the other hand, he sent a team of soldiers and horses to flee quickly, and ran to the territory of Xi to spread the word, so that Baoshen Bring reinforcements and food and grass over, so that the army of Qi State can be dispersed from both inside and outside.
When the supervising army heard this, they immediately scrambled to say: "Me! Let me go! I'll go back! I can't stay in this damn place!"
Seeing that his stay would also shake the morale of the army, Pingquan agreed to let the supervising army join the team, preparing the army to dispatch, and cover them from fleeing to Xiguo to rescue soldiers.
Wu Jiu and Qi Hou had just fallen asleep, and it was not yet dawn. Last night, they tossed and tossed all night, and finally heard a soldier shouting hastily, saying outside the tent: "The big thing is not good! The humble general will see the king! Chu people There is going to be a conflict!"
Wu Jiu was woken up when he heard the sound outside in a daze, frowned, rolled hard on the couch, wrapped himself in the quilt.
Qi Hou also heard the voice and got up quickly, because the matter was a bit serious, so he had to call Wu Jiu up.
Wu Jiu was called out with a confused face, his hair was scattered around his body, and his head was messed up because of rubbing back and forth, but it was not ugly, but had a delicate and decadent aesthetic feeling.
Upon hearing this, Wu Jiu said calmly, "Oh..."
Qi Hou heard him oh, and seemed to be falling asleep again, so he quickly said: "Second brother, second brother, don't sleep."
Wu Jiao woke him up again, and then he continued: "It doesn't matter, I must go to Baoshen to rescue the soldiers."
When he said this, everyone felt that it had something to do with it. Now that Wu Jiu was woken up by the noise, he had no choice but to say: "Baoshen doesn't believe in Pingquan anymore. This time, when we go to rescue soldiers, Baoshen will definitely not act rashly. I'm afraid Pengquan Fist has joined us and is here to cheat."
Everyone was a little suspicious, Wu Jiu asked again, "Are there any supervisors sent by Chu State in the team that slipped away?"
The general immediately said: "Yes! Yes!"
When Wu Jiu heard this, he was no longer worried, and said, "Then there's no problem, don't chase them, just let them go."
The supervising army led a team of soldiers and horses, only ten people, before dawn, they rushed to the gate of the city of Xiguo overnight, entered the gate of the city of Xiguo, the supervising army did not stop, and immediately prepared their horses and rushed to Chu. go.
The other soldiers stayed behind and asked Xiguo to send reinforcements and food. The king of Xiguo didn't dare to offend the people of Qi when he heard the news of their defeat.
The supervising army ran away and ran back to the capital of Chu State, killing three horses.
Baoshen didn't know about the siege of the army yet. He was presiding over the morning court when he heard the sound of wailing. non-stop.
Everyone was surprised at once, and they looked at each other. It was early morning, and the officials of Chu State were all present. Although Baoshen was not sitting in the chair, he was standing beside him, as if he was the new king of Chu State.
When Baoshen saw that it was the sent supervisor, he immediately said, "What happened?!"
The superintendent cried and said: "Master Ling Yin! Master Ling Yin is the master of the little minister!!"
The supervising army was crying, with an aggrieved expression on his face, and told about the encirclement of the Chu army. Baoshen had only received two good news, and he never expected to be encircled. He lost so thoroughly, and was immediately stunned. Doctor Chu They also began to discuss one after another, and there was an uproar in the hall for a while.
The overseer was still crying, and said: "General Fenquan asked the ministers to rescue the soldiers and send food and grass back. He wants to attack Qi's army from inside and outside."
When he said this, Baoshen immediately pondered, and everyone was discussing, after all, after two great victories, the Qi army was defeated for more than [-] miles, and for some reason, they were suddenly defeated, so Baoshen was naturally suspicious.
The supervising army had long held a grudge against Fuquan, so he kept saying bad things about Fuquan, saying: "Lord Ling Yin! It's not that I like to speak ill of people, but that Fuquan, in my humble opinion, is probably just a trick. I was bought by the people of Qi country long ago, otherwise our army of Chu country is so powerful, how could it be defeated by the people of Qi country in an instant!?"
Baoshen was skeptical at first, and the supervising army held a grudge and kept saying bad things about Pingquan. He didn't want the army to save people at all, and wished that Pingquan would die in the hands of the Qi army.
Baoshen pondered and said, "All the doctors think, what should we do at this time?"
In an instant, the Chu State also had differences, and it was divided into two factions. One faction advocated rescue, and the other faction did not plan to rescue.
Baoshen thought about it, but if he didn't rescue him, he couldn't justify it, but if he did, he might be a spy. In the end, Baoshen thought about it and asked someone to write a letter, which he secretly handed to the besieged Fengquan...
After the Chu army was besieged for a month and a half, they were already starving, but the Chu army was so strong that they didn't even say surrender. As for the source of water, there happened to be a very thin stream of water in the depression. Because it was winter, the stream was very small, so Wu Jiu pretended not to see it.
It was also this water flow that saved the Chu army's life.
Seeing that they would not surrender, Wu Jiu thought of another method, that is, while stationing the troops condescendingly, Wu Jiu skewered a lot of skewers, and prepared to cook them in the wild on top of the heads of the Chu people.
Wu Jiu's method was too damaging, and even Qihou thought it was too damaging, but because he couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, Qihou still happily started eating skewers on the heads of Chu people.
Wu Jiu specially marinated a lot of meat, cut it into small pieces, skewered it into meat skewers, coated them with seasoning, then asked everyone to light up a bonfire, made a shelf, and put the meat skewers on it, a standard outdoor barbecue.
Everyone just can't drink, otherwise good wine and meat will be more delicious.
When it was dusk, Wu Jiao asked people to put all the skewers on the fire, ready to barbecue, such as honey sauce ribs, honey sauce chicken wings, lamb waist, chicken heart, chicken gizzards, beef, lamb, ribs, and even lungs Once baked, it also tastes delicious, especially springy.
Because there are too many people, the aroma of grilled meat is overwhelming, and the smell of the grilled meat is blown out by the wind. Thanks to Wu Jiao's seasoning, the aroma can't wait to spread ten miles away and float to the depression Li is not a problem at all.
They ate and drank on top, and when the meat was gone, Wu Jiao spread the sauce on the pancakes and baked them on the fire. Unexpectedly, the baked pancakes were fragrant and crispy, wishing they were better than meat, but the pancakes would fall off as soon as they were bitten. The pancakes were obviously eaten by the marching army, they were ordinary, but after such a treatment, they were so delicious that the mouth would salivate.
The scent came rolling in, drifting all the way to the depression. Chu Jun had been starving for a month and a half, but now smelling the scent, they swallowed desperately.
Fengquan’s crutches are gone, he casually broke a tree branch and leaned on it, looking at the desolate Chu army around him, he didn’t know what it was like in his heart. Case.
The soldiers were all sitting on the ground, or simply lying down, but Fengquan stood alone, looking around, the desolation made people feel hesitant.
Just as the Chu army was smelling the smell, the soldiers on one side suddenly started to riot, and someone said in a low voice, "General! General! The return from the capital is here!"
Someone yelled softly, as if they were afraid that the Qi army would hear it, and there was a commotion immediately, and everyone immediately glowed up, and they automatically made a way for the herald to come in quickly.
The herald was the Chu army sent out, and they rushed all the way back, but there was no shadow of the supervising army. The herald said that the supervising army stayed in the capital and would not come back.
When Feng Quan heard it, he didn't take it seriously, the supervising army couldn't bear hardships, so it's better to stay in the capital, so as not to shake the morale of the army.
Everyone urged: "General! Take a look, what did Lord Ling Yin say!? Are you going to send troops to rescue us!? When will the food and grass arrive!?"
Everyone said something to each other, Ping Quan quickly took the military newspaper, opened it and read it quickly, but after reading it, the expression on his face froze instantly.
Because of the arrival of the military newspaper, all the soldiers became active, eagerly waiting for the good news, waiting for the good news for the Qi army to break out of the siege.
However, everyone had been waiting for a long time, struggling for a month and a half, only to see the stiff expression on General Fist's face, which became more and more stiff and gloomy.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and some people couldn't help but say: "General! What does the military newspaper say?"
"Yes, General! What does the military newspaper say?"
"Is the grain and grass already on the way?"
"When will support arrive?"
"General? General?"
After the soldiers talked and talked, Ping Quan just stared at the military newspaper in a daze, and then handed the general's newspaper to the deputy beside him with a blank face.
Seeing General Fuquan's ugly face, the deputy had already thought in his heart that Baoshen might not give them reinforcements, and maybe he wouldn't give them rations either, maybe they were abandoned.
The deputy hurriedly took the military newspaper, already planning for the worst in his heart, but when the deputy took the military newspaper and looked at it, his face instantly turned cold, which was even worse than his image.
The soldiers looked at each other in blank dismay. For some reason, the faces of General Fist Fist and the lieutenant general were so ugly after watching it.
The lieutenant general held the letter with trembling hands. It clearly stated that it was written by Baoshen himself. The supervising army responded that the fist was a secret operation of Qi State, instructing Chu State to deliberately defeat the battle and lose to Qi State. Baoshen might send troops rashly. He fell into the trick of Qi State, so he made a condition.
If you want Chu to send troops to support it, send food and grass to support it, then you have to show your loyalty by slaying yourself with a fist.If Fengquan committed suicide, food, grass, rescue, and replacement generals would arrive immediately. If Fendquan insisted on not committing suicide, then the Chu army would not reinforce him.
The lieutenant general looked at the military newspaper and was so angry that he raised his head and said, "General..."
Ping Quan just waved his hand and didn't speak, his eyes were full of ashes. When he was young, Ping Quan kept running around in order to rehabilitate his family and suffered a lot. However, at that time, no matter how hard Ping Quan was, No matter how hard it was, how many injuries he suffered, there was no ashes in Ping Quan's eyes, because he knew the purpose of his obsession.
And now...
A military newspaper that asked Fengquan to commit suicide to show his loyalty made Fendquan suddenly lose his direction, as if he was trapped in a thick fog, and began to question his own existence.
Fengquan was really confused, so many soldiers were brothers who were born and died, if he didn't kill himself, then these soldiers would not be able to survive.
But if Ping Quan really committed suicide, would these troops survive?It took one and a half months to go back and forth, but what I was waiting for was this kind of questioning. After I killed myself with a fist, I still needed to go back and forth, and it would take another month and a half. Even if there was water here, the soldiers would not be able to survive... …
Feng Quan squinted his eyes, and his eyes were very confused. He slowly supported his crutches and moved forward step by step. The lieutenant behind him said anxiously, "General!"
It seems that he is afraid of committing suicide with his fist.
A few soldiers couldn't help it, they didn't know what happened, they quickly snatched the military newspaper from the lieutenant general's hand and looked at it, they turned pale with shock and made a commotion.
"The general is a loyal minister! How could this happen!?"
"We fought desperately for the country of Chu, why did we end up like this!?"
"It must be the ghost of the supervising army!"
"How can Ling Yin not distinguish between right and wrong!?"
"Without food and reinforcements, what shall we do?"
"Surrender? Didn't you say that if you surrender, you won't be killed?"
I don't know who said such a sentence, and then there was silence, and then there was a small wave of noise.
"Surrender!"
"Surrender! We risked our lives for the state of Chu, but this is what we waited for? Surrendering still has a way out, waiting for the state of Chu to send troops, there is no way out!"
"General! General, you speak! We are all following you, what's the matter?"
Feng Quan acted as if he hadn't heard it, quietly watching the gloomy night, the sound of the wind blowing in the hollow, like ghosts crying and wolves howling, each sound more desolate than the sound.
Wu Jiu and the others ate barbecue on top of Chu Jun's head. After eating to their satisfaction, they were ready to call it a day and go back to sleep.
Wu Jiu entered the shogunate, and Cao GUI soon followed him in. He cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Great Situ, the spies have received news from the capital of the Chu Kingdom."
Wu Jiu said, "Oh? Does Baoshen not plan to send reinforcements?"
Cao GUI immediately said: "The Great Situ is very predictable, so it's not just that he doesn't plan to reinforce? Baoshen, the old man, actually wrote a military report and asked Fuquan to kill himself to show his loyalty! Otherwise, the Chu army would not be recruited."
When everyone heard this, they started discussing one after another. They all felt that Baoshen's move was too ruthless. Qu Wan was also surprised, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, Da Situ, Ping Quan is a rare and good general. If Ping Quan It's really self-defeating, isn't our plan that took so much trouble in vain?"
Qi Hou frowned, but he was also afraid that Yanquan would kill himself, so he said: "Doctor Qu, according to your understanding of General Fengquan, if at this time, Gu no longer cares about the past and asks to surrender, will General Fengquan surrender?"
After listening to Qu, there was some distress on his face, then he shook his head and didn't speak.
Seeing Qu Wan shaking his head, everyone sighed, and someone said: "Then let Fingquan die? The humble general feels uncomfortable watching it!"
At this time, everyone seemed to be looking at Wu Jiu in unison. They all knew that Wu Jiu was simply a god. He could predict things like a god and use soldiers like a god. There must be some good way.
Sure enough, Wu Jiu looked very leisurely, and said: "Doctor Qu, according to your understanding, the reason why General Fenquan is loyal to Chu State, and he doesn't shy away from hatred with Baoshen, why is that?"
Qu Wan immediately said: "Because the former king of Chu State had kindness to General Fen Quan, and General Vend Fist knew how to repay his kindness, and he would never change it until his death."
Wu Jiu then raised his lips and said, "Yes, there is kindness. If our country of Qi wants to surrender General Fenquan, we can't persuade him to surrender. We must give both kindness and power."
Everyone said: "How to show kindness?"
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Now that the Chu army has been besieged for a month and a half, what do they need most? Food, of course! Your Majesty, please generously donate food to the Chu army, regardless of reward or surrender."
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other in blank dismay. If this is enough for the Chu people, why don't they call back?
But when Qi Hou heard this, he immediately laughed and said: "It's a good way to give both kindness and power."
Wu Jiu cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty is a benevolent and righteous King, and I cannot bear to see Chu's army starved to death. Although General Fuquan knew that this was the King's plan to surrender, just think about it, those troops are A brother who followed General Fen Quan through life and death, how could General Fen Fist not be favored by this favor? Furthermore, now that Baoshen has sent a letter, the people of Chu ordered Feng Quan to kill himself as a token of loyalty, but our country of Qi gave food to them without compensation Eat, right and wrong, you can tell at a glance, are you still afraid that the Chu people will not return? At that time, I am afraid that the Chu people will regard the king as a reborn parent, loyal, so how can they have any objection?"
Wu Jiu's words were very reasonable, and everyone immediately nodded in agreement.
Qihou said: "Okay, according to what Da Situ said, tomorrow is dawn, and the food will be released early in the morning!"
Fengquan stood alone for a whole night. He saw a glimmer of winter sun, struggling to rise up, bringing up a stream of warm sunlight. However, the sunlight shone on the vicissitudes of Chu Jun, making him even more desolate.
There is a sword pinned to Vend Quan's waist. The sword was given to Vend Quan by the former king of Chu State, King Wu, to make him serve the Chu State.
Feng Quan threw away a crutch, leaned on the crutch with only one hand, and put the other hand on the sword, slowly drawing the sword out of its sheath.
At this time, the deputy general also woke up, and immediately noticed the movement of the fist, and hurriedly rushed forward and knuckled his head, saying: "General, the general can't do it!"
His voice was loud, and many soldiers woke up in an instant. They saw that General Fist Fist was holding a sword, which was half out of its sheath, and they all gathered together and knelt, saying, "No, General! Absolutely no!"
Fen Fist looked around at the soldiers around him, all of them had yellow and muscular faces, and their faces were pale. Because it was the middle of winter, the water flow was about to be cut off. Once the water flow stopped, the army would die, and now there was no room for them to return.
Fengquan knew that maybe self-killing was just an excuse for Baoshen to kill someone with a knife, but if Fengquan didn't commit suicide now, the army would have no chance of surviving.
When the soldiers saw this, they knelt down and kowtowed to Fendquan. For a moment, the hollow was full of crying, pleading for Fendquan to stop. Fendquan looked at the soldiers who were bowing their heads one after another, their teeth were chattering, and they were trembling.
At this moment, suddenly heard the sound of "哗啦啦啦" and the sound of squatting. The Chu army immediately raised their guard and saw many Qi troops surrounding them. Everyone felt that the Qi army had been besieged for such a long time, and they must be closed at the end. net.
The current Chu army is completely vulnerable. As long as the Qi people are willing to send some old, weak, sick and disabled, they can all be wiped out.
However, those Qi soldiers did not bring weapons, but instead carried a lot of sacks, not knowing what to do.
Soon, everyone saw Wu Jiao, dressed in white, walking up to Aodi, cupping his hands at Aodi, and saying, "It's been a long time, General Fist!"
Feng Quan looked up at Wu Jiu, and said, "Did Situ of the State of Qi come to persuade him to surrender?"
At this moment, Fengquan was not sure whether his army would surrender, but Wu Jiao smiled and said, "General Fengquan is worrying too much, Jiao is here to give up food."
As soon as he said this, the hollow was very quiet, no one spoke, because they didn't seem to understand what Wu Jiu said.
Wu Jiu also said: "Your Majesty can't bear to see Chu's army starve to death. General Pingquan's subordinates are all good men with strong bones. I admire you very much. Now I heard that Chu State refused to send food and Pengquan. General, I couldn't bear it, so I sent Jiao Sheliang and General Fuquan."
As he spoke, he asked Cao GUI to yell, and asked the Chu army below the depression to disperse a little, and then he heard the sound of "Gulu Gulu... bang!!", and many bags of grain rolled down from the sky, fell down along the depression, and hit the ground below. .
At the beginning, the Chu soldiers didn't dare to move at all, for fear of being cheated, but after waiting for a while, they didn't see any movement, so the courageous Chu soldiers went to check, opened the sack and found that there was really grain inside.
Wu Jiu cupped his hands and said, "The food has been delivered, and Jiu's task has been completed, so I will return to my command now, General Fist, I respect you, I hope that in the future, I can fight with dignity."
After Wu Jiu finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, Ping Quan was full of surprise, and there was a lot of shouts in the hollow. Everyone saw the food, which was obviously raw, but someone stuffed it directly into their mouths, cheering wildly.
Feng Quan hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute!"
Wu Jiu immediately stopped in his tracks, turned his head and said, "What else can General Fenquan teach you?"
Ping Quan said suspiciously: "Duke Qi...do you have anything else to say?"
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "What are you talking about? About persuading him to surrender?"
Ping Quan said nothing, but acquiesced.
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "I have persuaded you to surrender. I know that it is useless to a strong man like General Fist, so I will not say more."
Wu Jiao said, smiled, and said: "Jie sees that the subordinates of General Fist Fist are starving, hurry up and cook, don't bother me."
After Wu Jiu finished speaking, he really turned around and left.
Fengquan was surprised for a while, looking at Wu Jiu's back, it was not only Fendquan who was surprised, even the adjutants and soldiers around Fengquan were also surprised. Qi State is their enemy, Chu State is their mother country, and now The people of Chu State abandoned them, but the people of Qi State gave them food to eat...
Wu Jiu went back to the tent, and Marquis Qi hurriedly went up to meet him, and looked behind him several times, saying, "Second brother, how is it? Has the Fist of Fist come down?"
Wu Jiu said, "How can it be so fast? The food is only given out now, so let people eat it anyway."
Qihou said: "Isn't Gu afraid that there will be changes if there is a delay? What did Feng Quan say? When will he surrender?"
Wu Jiao said with a smile, "General Pingquan didn't say anything, he just asked your majesty if there was anything else he wanted to say, and Jiu said, "Your majesty doesn't want to talk about persuading him to surrender, so General Pengquan said nothing."
When Qihou heard this, he felt even more ambiguous, and said, "Is this... really all right?"
Wu Jiu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the long line is far enough now, no matter how big the fish is, it should be hooked, Your Majesty just wait for the good news."
Hearing his affirmation, Marquis Qi nodded his head, and soon the army of Qi State discovered that the people of Chu State were making a fire and cooking in the depression. It became lively and a little angry.
Wu Jiu went to distribute food in the morning, and everyone waited like this, waiting for the people of Chu to eat the food. They waited until night fell, and they all felt that the Fist of Fist might not come down today, so everyone went into the shogunate to discuss After a while.
In addition to the Fenquan army, Chu State also had three other armies. Wu Jiu and the others had already successfully intimidated the other three armies with the Fenquan army, but just scaring them didn't work, they had to be defeated one by one.
Everyone was discussing, when they heard a soldier rushing in quickly, "Wow!" He lifted the curtain, saluted in a hurry, and shouted: "Your Majesty, good news! General Fist Fist has surrendered!"
As soon as his words fell, the shogunate became excited. Wu Jiu felt that this scene seemed familiar. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be the sight of fans watching a football game and scoring a goal...
Everyone immediately stood up and cheered, and almost hugged. They were all very excited. Qi Hou also stood up from the table and said, "Okay! Let's go, let's go to accept the surrender!"
Everyone responded quickly, and all of them walked out of the shogunate, quickly gathered their soldiers and horses, and came to the side of the depression in a mighty way, ready to accept surrender.
Fengquan thought for a long time. Last night, he thought about whether he should kill himself. But this morning, Fendquan didn't expect that the problem he had been thinking about all night was not worth mentioning, because the people of Qi sent a bigger and more difficult problem. It is whether to surrender.
The favor of the people of Qi is too great. It has nothing to do with the life of Feng Quan, but the life of the entire Chu army. Those who have wives and children cannot let them die here, this favor must be accepted by Vend Fist.
Fengquan thought about it for a day, watching his brothers gobble up the food that they had given away, their faces covered with mud and in a state of distress, but there was a living light in their eyes, which made Pengquan feel sad.
Feng Quan stood up quickly, propping up a rotten piece of wood casually, and stood up slowly. When he stood up, he seemed to stand out from the crowd. All the soldiers put down their things and looked at them.
Ping Quan was thinking, what was he doing for, to repay his kindness?revenge?Or will he bring his dead brother to death?
Fengquan frowned, and with a sound of "嗻!!!", he suddenly drew the bronze sword from his waist. His movement was so fast that the soldiers next to him jumped. stand up and hinder.
Unexpectedly, however, Pingquan pulled out the long sword suddenly, and then drew a sword flower. With a sound of "Shua!!", he inserted the long sword into the soil at once, and with a sound of "Duo!" After starving and freezing for so many days, he still has amazing arm strength. He inserted the long sword from the root to the root, leaving only a little handle exposed.
Seeing that Fen Quan inserted the sword bestowed by the former king into the soil, everyone seemed to understand what it meant. No one objected, and their hearts became much more relaxed.
The adjutant hurriedly knelt down, clasped his fists and said: "My humble general is willing to follow the general to the death!"
Soon the sky-shattering shouts came one after another.
"The humble general is willing to follow the general to the death!"
When everyone came to the depression, Fend Quan had already rectified the soldiers and horses, and the army officially returned to Qi.
Qihou was dressed in a black court robe, neatly dressed, and he did not despise them just because they were captives. He was dressed very formally, walked over slowly, and said loudly: "What you see in front of you today are all iron bones, no matter where you were born Land, no matter where you grew up, now you are the sons of my country of Qi. If you don’t want to surrender, you can leave now. Our army of Qi will never stop you. Those who want to surrender will be treated like our army of Qi. The food and salary enjoyed by people will not be less than one, just be loyal, and I will definitely not let you down."
Qi Hou just said a few short words, and he had nothing to say. He just said to Cao GUI: "Count up the troops, and release those who are not far away. Those who are willing to surrender should be organized and go to the camp first to rest."
Cao GUI immediately waited respectfully and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but they didn't expect that they would not be able to surrender. Soon there were people who took the lead and wanted to return to Chu State. If there was one, there would be two. Many courageous people proposed to return to Chu State. Qihou didn't stop him, sent troops to escort him, and left soon.
The rest of the people looked at each other in blank dismay, and many people were also thinking, what else could there be if they returned to Chu?Now the state of Chu is in turmoil, but there are some righteous men who sacrificed their soldiers for the sake of the overall situation, what will be left, and what can they get when they go back?
Fengquan watched a group of people being taken away, and a group of people chose to stay, and he was the one who had no choice. After all, Fengquan accepted Qihou's favor, Fengquan knew that he must be the one to stay.
Qu Wan walked over at this time, and he pushed a wheelchair, which Wu Jiu ordered someone to build a long time ago, just to welcome the surrender of Fengquan.
Qu Wan clasped his hands to Ping Quan and said, "General Ping Quan, please stop."
Fengquan never expected that one day he would become a colleague with Qu Wan again, he was filled with emotions, he bowed his hands to Qu Wan, and sat in a wheelchair.
Qu Wan pushed Fuquan and said: "Your Majesty, please take a bath and wash first, then take a meal and rest."
The state of Qi subdued the war god of the state of Chu, Fu Quan, who led the troops to surrender. Qi's army expanded again in an instant, and conquered a group of well-trained iron cavalry.
This news shocked the three armies of Chu State in an instant, and the three armies did not dare to move. They all hid and did not confront Qi State.
When Baoshen heard the news, he was furious. After all, Fen Quan was the great general of Chu State. He had guarded the city gate before and knew Chu State well.
Baoshen was a little panicked, but now there is no other way, only the last way left.
What is the solution?Naturally, it is to offer treasures and seek peace.
Cai Guo also heard the news that Qi Hou subdued the Fist Fist, and immediately defeated the most powerful army of Chu State.
The war between Qi State and Chu State has come to an end for the time being, but it is far from over. Because Pingquan led the troops to surrender, Chu State was severely injured, and the other three armies did not dare to act rashly. Therefore, Qi State's army has a chance to breathe. Amended, simply sent troops to garrison the border towns, and Qihou took Wu Jiu to the capital of Cai.
Wu Jiao is not in good health, Marquis Qi knows it, he drinks wind and eats sand in the border town every day, and it is winter, Wu Jiao has been coughing recently and has a low fever, so Tang Wu also suggested that Wu Jiao should go to Cai Gongjing to recuperate for a while Day is good.
In this way, Marquis Qi led Wu Jiu into the Cai Palace, Marquis Cai Xianwu greeted him personally, and greeted him at the gate of the city. Seeing Qi's army approaching from afar, he bowed his hands deeply and said, "Xianwu pays homage to Qi." Gong! I would like to thank Duke Qi for his great kindness!"
Qihou heard Caihou's voice in the car, and did not get out of the car. After all, Wu Jiao was not very comfortable, lying in the car, sleeping on Qihou's lap, Qihou opened the curtain of the car, The voice was not too loud, and he said: "Cai Gong's words are serious. I am a little tired all the way alone. I wonder if I can go to the posthouse to rest?"
Caihou envy immediately said: "Yes, yes, please drive me, Duke Qi!"
Qihou's motorcade quickly entered the post house, Wu Jiu slept soundly, Qihou hugged him and got out of the car, Wu Jiu didn't wake up, he slept until dinner, he woke up from hunger, and then woke up .
The dinner was served in the palace, and Marquis Cai welcomed the army of Qi. Since Cao GUI stayed behind to garrison at the border, Marquis Qi and Wu Jiu took Qu Wan and the newly recruited general Fu Quan, and went into the palace.
When everyone entered the palace, Cai Hou greeted them all the way, and personally welcomed Qi Hou into the banquet hall, and asked Qi Hou to sit in the chairman's seat, Qi Hou declined for a while, then did not refuse, sat down directly, and let Wu Jiu sit beside him.
Cai Hou sat down with him, thanked Qi Guo for his kindness with a smile, and then said: "Is this the famous Fist General? I haven't seen each other for a long time, and I really admire him for dancing! He is really handsome and majestic." Rin Rin!"
Fengquan doesn't like these hypocrisy. Although he has surrendered to the state of Qi, he hasn't gotten used to it, especially what Xianwu said is very false, like irony. lame.
Ping Quan just cupped his hands and said, "I dare not do it."
Caihou Xianwu immediately clapped his hands and asked people to serve food. Immediately, the dancers and women poured wine and danced to add to the fun.
Feng Quan didn't like the smell, frowned, and lowered his head to eat his own food, while Wu Jiao was very shameless, a dancing girl came with her sleeves flapping, just getting closer, Wu Jiao suddenly sneezed "Ah!" , almost frightened the dancing girl.
When Qi Hou saw it, he immediately laughed.
When Caihou saw that everyone didn't like it, and Qihou also looked uninterested, as if he couldn't see it at all, he had no choice but to give up.
In fact, Caihou has another thing to do at this banquet, and that is to bribe Qihou. Now that he is fighting with Chu, he has just subdued an army of Fuquan, and there are three other troops, so Caihou needs Qi. To continue to help with all our strength, it is natural to bribe Qi State. By the way, we will discuss how to break up the remaining three armies so that Chu State can no longer threaten Cai State.
Before Caihou Xianwu could say this, he suddenly heard that Huben Zhonglang was about to run in. He knelt down and said to everyone in a hurry, "Your Majesty, Duke Qi, all the nobles of Qi, the humble general just received the news." , Chu sent a special envoy."
When Cai Hou heard about the state of Chu, he was still a little frightened and said, "Send a special envoy? What are you sending a special envoy for?"
General Huben Zhonglang hurriedly said: "It is said that the special envoy was sent by Yin Baoshen, the order of the state of Chu. There are only three people in total, and they did not bring any soldiers..."
As he spoke, he looked sideways at Fengquan, and seemed a bit awkward, and said in a stammering voice, "This...the special envoy of Chu State seems to want to negotiate peace with the monarch of Qi State, and ask for Fengquan, a traitor of Chu State. "
Upon hearing this, Marquis Qi laughed, and said, "Baoshen is worthy of being the Ling Yin of the Chu State, what a bold tone! What capabilities do they have?"
The Huben Zhonglang general said again: "The special envoy seems to have brought a treasure, ready to present it to the king of Qi, saying it is... what Heshibi."
Wu Jiu caught a cold, he was groggy, he had no taste in his mouth, he was really uncomfortable, he almost fell asleep again after eating, but when he heard the word "Heshibi", he woke up immediately Like a stimulant, his eyes lit up.
Wu Jiufang
Cao GUI cupped his fists and said, "Yes!"
Fenquan's team was surrounded in the depression, and they heard the shout of "surrender, don't kill" from above for an hour. They all looked at each other, which aroused the fighting spirit of the soldiers on the contrary, and no one said surrender.
However, the supervising army quit. Knowing that they were surrounded, he immediately accused Fengquan and said, "It's all you, what kind of bad plan did you come up with! It's all right now! We are surrounded here, and the Qi people want us to die." Food is running out!"
How could Pingquan not know what the people of Qi were thinking, his face was very gloomy, at this time a soldier said: "General, I have food here, I took it when I ran out just now!"
"I got some here too!"
"I have mine too!"
Everyone talked one after another, but they gathered together the rescued food, which was estimated to be enough for a day or two. As soon as the supervising army saw the food, they immediately pulled it into their arms and kept it from being touched by others.
Everyone's faces were ugly, Ping Quan pondered for a long time, and said: "For the moment, we must find a way to send people to rescue the soldiers."
The supervising army sneered and said, "How can we move reinforcements? The people of Qi are surrounding us!"
Feng Quan said with an ugly face, "Just use the strategy of the people of Qi."
Fuquan seemed to have been inspired, and he wanted to use the same strategy to strike east and west. On the one hand, he clashed and resisted, attracting the attention of Qi's army, and on the other hand, he sent a team of soldiers and horses to flee quickly, and ran to the territory of Xi to spread the word, so that Baoshen Bring reinforcements and food and grass over, so that the army of Qi State can be dispersed from both inside and outside.
When the supervising army heard this, they immediately scrambled to say: "Me! Let me go! I'll go back! I can't stay in this damn place!"
Seeing that his stay would also shake the morale of the army, Pingquan agreed to let the supervising army join the team, preparing the army to dispatch, and cover them from fleeing to Xiguo to rescue soldiers.
Wu Jiu and Qi Hou had just fallen asleep, and it was not yet dawn. Last night, they tossed and tossed all night, and finally heard a soldier shouting hastily, saying outside the tent: "The big thing is not good! The humble general will see the king! Chu people There is going to be a conflict!"
Wu Jiu was woken up when he heard the sound outside in a daze, frowned, rolled hard on the couch, wrapped himself in the quilt.
Qi Hou also heard the voice and got up quickly, because the matter was a bit serious, so he had to call Wu Jiu up.
Wu Jiu was called out with a confused face, his hair was scattered around his body, and his head was messed up because of rubbing back and forth, but it was not ugly, but had a delicate and decadent aesthetic feeling.
Upon hearing this, Wu Jiu said calmly, "Oh..."
Qi Hou heard him oh, and seemed to be falling asleep again, so he quickly said: "Second brother, second brother, don't sleep."
Wu Jiao woke him up again, and then he continued: "It doesn't matter, I must go to Baoshen to rescue the soldiers."
When he said this, everyone felt that it had something to do with it. Now that Wu Jiu was woken up by the noise, he had no choice but to say: "Baoshen doesn't believe in Pingquan anymore. This time, when we go to rescue soldiers, Baoshen will definitely not act rashly. I'm afraid Pengquan Fist has joined us and is here to cheat."
Everyone was a little suspicious, Wu Jiu asked again, "Are there any supervisors sent by Chu State in the team that slipped away?"
The general immediately said: "Yes! Yes!"
When Wu Jiu heard this, he was no longer worried, and said, "Then there's no problem, don't chase them, just let them go."
The supervising army led a team of soldiers and horses, only ten people, before dawn, they rushed to the gate of the city of Xiguo overnight, entered the gate of the city of Xiguo, the supervising army did not stop, and immediately prepared their horses and rushed to Chu. go.
The other soldiers stayed behind and asked Xiguo to send reinforcements and food. The king of Xiguo didn't dare to offend the people of Qi when he heard the news of their defeat.
The supervising army ran away and ran back to the capital of Chu State, killing three horses.
Baoshen didn't know about the siege of the army yet. He was presiding over the morning court when he heard the sound of wailing. non-stop.
Everyone was surprised at once, and they looked at each other. It was early morning, and the officials of Chu State were all present. Although Baoshen was not sitting in the chair, he was standing beside him, as if he was the new king of Chu State.
When Baoshen saw that it was the sent supervisor, he immediately said, "What happened?!"
The superintendent cried and said: "Master Ling Yin! Master Ling Yin is the master of the little minister!!"
The supervising army was crying, with an aggrieved expression on his face, and told about the encirclement of the Chu army. Baoshen had only received two good news, and he never expected to be encircled. He lost so thoroughly, and was immediately stunned. Doctor Chu They also began to discuss one after another, and there was an uproar in the hall for a while.
The overseer was still crying, and said: "General Fenquan asked the ministers to rescue the soldiers and send food and grass back. He wants to attack Qi's army from inside and outside."
When he said this, Baoshen immediately pondered, and everyone was discussing, after all, after two great victories, the Qi army was defeated for more than [-] miles, and for some reason, they were suddenly defeated, so Baoshen was naturally suspicious.
The supervising army had long held a grudge against Fuquan, so he kept saying bad things about Fuquan, saying: "Lord Ling Yin! It's not that I like to speak ill of people, but that Fuquan, in my humble opinion, is probably just a trick. I was bought by the people of Qi country long ago, otherwise our army of Chu country is so powerful, how could it be defeated by the people of Qi country in an instant!?"
Baoshen was skeptical at first, and the supervising army held a grudge and kept saying bad things about Pingquan. He didn't want the army to save people at all, and wished that Pingquan would die in the hands of the Qi army.
Baoshen pondered and said, "All the doctors think, what should we do at this time?"
In an instant, the Chu State also had differences, and it was divided into two factions. One faction advocated rescue, and the other faction did not plan to rescue.
Baoshen thought about it, but if he didn't rescue him, he couldn't justify it, but if he did, he might be a spy. In the end, Baoshen thought about it and asked someone to write a letter, which he secretly handed to the besieged Fengquan...
After the Chu army was besieged for a month and a half, they were already starving, but the Chu army was so strong that they didn't even say surrender. As for the source of water, there happened to be a very thin stream of water in the depression. Because it was winter, the stream was very small, so Wu Jiu pretended not to see it.
It was also this water flow that saved the Chu army's life.
Seeing that they would not surrender, Wu Jiu thought of another method, that is, while stationing the troops condescendingly, Wu Jiu skewered a lot of skewers, and prepared to cook them in the wild on top of the heads of the Chu people.
Wu Jiu's method was too damaging, and even Qihou thought it was too damaging, but because he couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, Qihou still happily started eating skewers on the heads of Chu people.
Wu Jiu specially marinated a lot of meat, cut it into small pieces, skewered it into meat skewers, coated them with seasoning, then asked everyone to light up a bonfire, made a shelf, and put the meat skewers on it, a standard outdoor barbecue.
Everyone just can't drink, otherwise good wine and meat will be more delicious.
When it was dusk, Wu Jiao asked people to put all the skewers on the fire, ready to barbecue, such as honey sauce ribs, honey sauce chicken wings, lamb waist, chicken heart, chicken gizzards, beef, lamb, ribs, and even lungs Once baked, it also tastes delicious, especially springy.
Because there are too many people, the aroma of grilled meat is overwhelming, and the smell of the grilled meat is blown out by the wind. Thanks to Wu Jiao's seasoning, the aroma can't wait to spread ten miles away and float to the depression Li is not a problem at all.
They ate and drank on top, and when the meat was gone, Wu Jiao spread the sauce on the pancakes and baked them on the fire. Unexpectedly, the baked pancakes were fragrant and crispy, wishing they were better than meat, but the pancakes would fall off as soon as they were bitten. The pancakes were obviously eaten by the marching army, they were ordinary, but after such a treatment, they were so delicious that the mouth would salivate.
The scent came rolling in, drifting all the way to the depression. Chu Jun had been starving for a month and a half, but now smelling the scent, they swallowed desperately.
Fengquan’s crutches are gone, he casually broke a tree branch and leaned on it, looking at the desolate Chu army around him, he didn’t know what it was like in his heart. Case.
The soldiers were all sitting on the ground, or simply lying down, but Fengquan stood alone, looking around, the desolation made people feel hesitant.
Just as the Chu army was smelling the smell, the soldiers on one side suddenly started to riot, and someone said in a low voice, "General! General! The return from the capital is here!"
Someone yelled softly, as if they were afraid that the Qi army would hear it, and there was a commotion immediately, and everyone immediately glowed up, and they automatically made a way for the herald to come in quickly.
The herald was the Chu army sent out, and they rushed all the way back, but there was no shadow of the supervising army. The herald said that the supervising army stayed in the capital and would not come back.
When Feng Quan heard it, he didn't take it seriously, the supervising army couldn't bear hardships, so it's better to stay in the capital, so as not to shake the morale of the army.
Everyone urged: "General! Take a look, what did Lord Ling Yin say!? Are you going to send troops to rescue us!? When will the food and grass arrive!?"
Everyone said something to each other, Ping Quan quickly took the military newspaper, opened it and read it quickly, but after reading it, the expression on his face froze instantly.
Because of the arrival of the military newspaper, all the soldiers became active, eagerly waiting for the good news, waiting for the good news for the Qi army to break out of the siege.
However, everyone had been waiting for a long time, struggling for a month and a half, only to see the stiff expression on General Fist's face, which became more and more stiff and gloomy.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and some people couldn't help but say: "General! What does the military newspaper say?"
"Yes, General! What does the military newspaper say?"
"Is the grain and grass already on the way?"
"When will support arrive?"
"General? General?"
After the soldiers talked and talked, Ping Quan just stared at the military newspaper in a daze, and then handed the general's newspaper to the deputy beside him with a blank face.
Seeing General Fuquan's ugly face, the deputy had already thought in his heart that Baoshen might not give them reinforcements, and maybe he wouldn't give them rations either, maybe they were abandoned.
The deputy hurriedly took the military newspaper, already planning for the worst in his heart, but when the deputy took the military newspaper and looked at it, his face instantly turned cold, which was even worse than his image.
The soldiers looked at each other in blank dismay. For some reason, the faces of General Fist Fist and the lieutenant general were so ugly after watching it.
The lieutenant general held the letter with trembling hands. It clearly stated that it was written by Baoshen himself. The supervising army responded that the fist was a secret operation of Qi State, instructing Chu State to deliberately defeat the battle and lose to Qi State. Baoshen might send troops rashly. He fell into the trick of Qi State, so he made a condition.
If you want Chu to send troops to support it, send food and grass to support it, then you have to show your loyalty by slaying yourself with a fist.If Fengquan committed suicide, food, grass, rescue, and replacement generals would arrive immediately. If Fendquan insisted on not committing suicide, then the Chu army would not reinforce him.
The lieutenant general looked at the military newspaper and was so angry that he raised his head and said, "General..."
Ping Quan just waved his hand and didn't speak, his eyes were full of ashes. When he was young, Ping Quan kept running around in order to rehabilitate his family and suffered a lot. However, at that time, no matter how hard Ping Quan was, No matter how hard it was, how many injuries he suffered, there was no ashes in Ping Quan's eyes, because he knew the purpose of his obsession.
And now...
A military newspaper that asked Fengquan to commit suicide to show his loyalty made Fendquan suddenly lose his direction, as if he was trapped in a thick fog, and began to question his own existence.
Fengquan was really confused, so many soldiers were brothers who were born and died, if he didn't kill himself, then these soldiers would not be able to survive.
But if Ping Quan really committed suicide, would these troops survive?It took one and a half months to go back and forth, but what I was waiting for was this kind of questioning. After I killed myself with a fist, I still needed to go back and forth, and it would take another month and a half. Even if there was water here, the soldiers would not be able to survive... …
Feng Quan squinted his eyes, and his eyes were very confused. He slowly supported his crutches and moved forward step by step. The lieutenant behind him said anxiously, "General!"
It seems that he is afraid of committing suicide with his fist.
A few soldiers couldn't help it, they didn't know what happened, they quickly snatched the military newspaper from the lieutenant general's hand and looked at it, they turned pale with shock and made a commotion.
"The general is a loyal minister! How could this happen!?"
"We fought desperately for the country of Chu, why did we end up like this!?"
"It must be the ghost of the supervising army!"
"How can Ling Yin not distinguish between right and wrong!?"
"Without food and reinforcements, what shall we do?"
"Surrender? Didn't you say that if you surrender, you won't be killed?"
I don't know who said such a sentence, and then there was silence, and then there was a small wave of noise.
"Surrender!"
"Surrender! We risked our lives for the state of Chu, but this is what we waited for? Surrendering still has a way out, waiting for the state of Chu to send troops, there is no way out!"
"General! General, you speak! We are all following you, what's the matter?"
Feng Quan acted as if he hadn't heard it, quietly watching the gloomy night, the sound of the wind blowing in the hollow, like ghosts crying and wolves howling, each sound more desolate than the sound.
Wu Jiu and the others ate barbecue on top of Chu Jun's head. After eating to their satisfaction, they were ready to call it a day and go back to sleep.
Wu Jiu entered the shogunate, and Cao GUI soon followed him in. He cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Great Situ, the spies have received news from the capital of the Chu Kingdom."
Wu Jiu said, "Oh? Does Baoshen not plan to send reinforcements?"
Cao GUI immediately said: "The Great Situ is very predictable, so it's not just that he doesn't plan to reinforce? Baoshen, the old man, actually wrote a military report and asked Fuquan to kill himself to show his loyalty! Otherwise, the Chu army would not be recruited."
When everyone heard this, they started discussing one after another. They all felt that Baoshen's move was too ruthless. Qu Wan was also surprised, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, Da Situ, Ping Quan is a rare and good general. If Ping Quan It's really self-defeating, isn't our plan that took so much trouble in vain?"
Qi Hou frowned, but he was also afraid that Yanquan would kill himself, so he said: "Doctor Qu, according to your understanding of General Fengquan, if at this time, Gu no longer cares about the past and asks to surrender, will General Fengquan surrender?"
After listening to Qu, there was some distress on his face, then he shook his head and didn't speak.
Seeing Qu Wan shaking his head, everyone sighed, and someone said: "Then let Fingquan die? The humble general feels uncomfortable watching it!"
At this time, everyone seemed to be looking at Wu Jiu in unison. They all knew that Wu Jiu was simply a god. He could predict things like a god and use soldiers like a god. There must be some good way.
Sure enough, Wu Jiu looked very leisurely, and said: "Doctor Qu, according to your understanding, the reason why General Fenquan is loyal to Chu State, and he doesn't shy away from hatred with Baoshen, why is that?"
Qu Wan immediately said: "Because the former king of Chu State had kindness to General Fen Quan, and General Vend Fist knew how to repay his kindness, and he would never change it until his death."
Wu Jiu then raised his lips and said, "Yes, there is kindness. If our country of Qi wants to surrender General Fenquan, we can't persuade him to surrender. We must give both kindness and power."
Everyone said: "How to show kindness?"
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "Now that the Chu army has been besieged for a month and a half, what do they need most? Food, of course! Your Majesty, please generously donate food to the Chu army, regardless of reward or surrender."
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other in blank dismay. If this is enough for the Chu people, why don't they call back?
But when Qi Hou heard this, he immediately laughed and said: "It's a good way to give both kindness and power."
Wu Jiu cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty is a benevolent and righteous King, and I cannot bear to see Chu's army starved to death. Although General Fuquan knew that this was the King's plan to surrender, just think about it, those troops are A brother who followed General Fen Quan through life and death, how could General Fen Fist not be favored by this favor? Furthermore, now that Baoshen has sent a letter, the people of Chu ordered Feng Quan to kill himself as a token of loyalty, but our country of Qi gave food to them without compensation Eat, right and wrong, you can tell at a glance, are you still afraid that the Chu people will not return? At that time, I am afraid that the Chu people will regard the king as a reborn parent, loyal, so how can they have any objection?"
Wu Jiu's words were very reasonable, and everyone immediately nodded in agreement.
Qihou said: "Okay, according to what Da Situ said, tomorrow is dawn, and the food will be released early in the morning!"
Fengquan stood alone for a whole night. He saw a glimmer of winter sun, struggling to rise up, bringing up a stream of warm sunlight. However, the sunlight shone on the vicissitudes of Chu Jun, making him even more desolate.
There is a sword pinned to Vend Quan's waist. The sword was given to Vend Quan by the former king of Chu State, King Wu, to make him serve the Chu State.
Feng Quan threw away a crutch, leaned on the crutch with only one hand, and put the other hand on the sword, slowly drawing the sword out of its sheath.
At this time, the deputy general also woke up, and immediately noticed the movement of the fist, and hurriedly rushed forward and knuckled his head, saying: "General, the general can't do it!"
His voice was loud, and many soldiers woke up in an instant. They saw that General Fist Fist was holding a sword, which was half out of its sheath, and they all gathered together and knelt, saying, "No, General! Absolutely no!"
Fen Fist looked around at the soldiers around him, all of them had yellow and muscular faces, and their faces were pale. Because it was the middle of winter, the water flow was about to be cut off. Once the water flow stopped, the army would die, and now there was no room for them to return.
Fengquan knew that maybe self-killing was just an excuse for Baoshen to kill someone with a knife, but if Fengquan didn't commit suicide now, the army would have no chance of surviving.
When the soldiers saw this, they knelt down and kowtowed to Fendquan. For a moment, the hollow was full of crying, pleading for Fendquan to stop. Fendquan looked at the soldiers who were bowing their heads one after another, their teeth were chattering, and they were trembling.
At this moment, suddenly heard the sound of "哗啦啦啦" and the sound of squatting. The Chu army immediately raised their guard and saw many Qi troops surrounding them. Everyone felt that the Qi army had been besieged for such a long time, and they must be closed at the end. net.
The current Chu army is completely vulnerable. As long as the Qi people are willing to send some old, weak, sick and disabled, they can all be wiped out.
However, those Qi soldiers did not bring weapons, but instead carried a lot of sacks, not knowing what to do.
Soon, everyone saw Wu Jiao, dressed in white, walking up to Aodi, cupping his hands at Aodi, and saying, "It's been a long time, General Fist!"
Feng Quan looked up at Wu Jiu, and said, "Did Situ of the State of Qi come to persuade him to surrender?"
At this moment, Fengquan was not sure whether his army would surrender, but Wu Jiao smiled and said, "General Fengquan is worrying too much, Jiao is here to give up food."
As soon as he said this, the hollow was very quiet, no one spoke, because they didn't seem to understand what Wu Jiu said.
Wu Jiu also said: "Your Majesty can't bear to see Chu's army starve to death. General Pingquan's subordinates are all good men with strong bones. I admire you very much. Now I heard that Chu State refused to send food and Pengquan. General, I couldn't bear it, so I sent Jiao Sheliang and General Fuquan."
As he spoke, he asked Cao GUI to yell, and asked the Chu army below the depression to disperse a little, and then he heard the sound of "Gulu Gulu... bang!!", and many bags of grain rolled down from the sky, fell down along the depression, and hit the ground below. .
At the beginning, the Chu soldiers didn't dare to move at all, for fear of being cheated, but after waiting for a while, they didn't see any movement, so the courageous Chu soldiers went to check, opened the sack and found that there was really grain inside.
Wu Jiu cupped his hands and said, "The food has been delivered, and Jiu's task has been completed, so I will return to my command now, General Fist, I respect you, I hope that in the future, I can fight with dignity."
After Wu Jiu finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, Ping Quan was full of surprise, and there was a lot of shouts in the hollow. Everyone saw the food, which was obviously raw, but someone stuffed it directly into their mouths, cheering wildly.
Feng Quan hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute!"
Wu Jiu immediately stopped in his tracks, turned his head and said, "What else can General Fenquan teach you?"
Ping Quan said suspiciously: "Duke Qi...do you have anything else to say?"
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "What are you talking about? About persuading him to surrender?"
Ping Quan said nothing, but acquiesced.
Wu Jiu smiled and said, "I have persuaded you to surrender. I know that it is useless to a strong man like General Fist, so I will not say more."
Wu Jiao said, smiled, and said: "Jie sees that the subordinates of General Fist Fist are starving, hurry up and cook, don't bother me."
After Wu Jiu finished speaking, he really turned around and left.
Fengquan was surprised for a while, looking at Wu Jiu's back, it was not only Fendquan who was surprised, even the adjutants and soldiers around Fengquan were also surprised. Qi State is their enemy, Chu State is their mother country, and now The people of Chu State abandoned them, but the people of Qi State gave them food to eat...
Wu Jiu went back to the tent, and Marquis Qi hurriedly went up to meet him, and looked behind him several times, saying, "Second brother, how is it? Has the Fist of Fist come down?"
Wu Jiu said, "How can it be so fast? The food is only given out now, so let people eat it anyway."
Qihou said: "Isn't Gu afraid that there will be changes if there is a delay? What did Feng Quan say? When will he surrender?"
Wu Jiao said with a smile, "General Pingquan didn't say anything, he just asked your majesty if there was anything else he wanted to say, and Jiu said, "Your majesty doesn't want to talk about persuading him to surrender, so General Pengquan said nothing."
When Qihou heard this, he felt even more ambiguous, and said, "Is this... really all right?"
Wu Jiu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the long line is far enough now, no matter how big the fish is, it should be hooked, Your Majesty just wait for the good news."
Hearing his affirmation, Marquis Qi nodded his head, and soon the army of Qi State discovered that the people of Chu State were making a fire and cooking in the depression. It became lively and a little angry.
Wu Jiu went to distribute food in the morning, and everyone waited like this, waiting for the people of Chu to eat the food. They waited until night fell, and they all felt that the Fist of Fist might not come down today, so everyone went into the shogunate to discuss After a while.
In addition to the Fenquan army, Chu State also had three other armies. Wu Jiu and the others had already successfully intimidated the other three armies with the Fenquan army, but just scaring them didn't work, they had to be defeated one by one.
Everyone was discussing, when they heard a soldier rushing in quickly, "Wow!" He lifted the curtain, saluted in a hurry, and shouted: "Your Majesty, good news! General Fist Fist has surrendered!"
As soon as his words fell, the shogunate became excited. Wu Jiu felt that this scene seemed familiar. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be the sight of fans watching a football game and scoring a goal...
Everyone immediately stood up and cheered, and almost hugged. They were all very excited. Qi Hou also stood up from the table and said, "Okay! Let's go, let's go to accept the surrender!"
Everyone responded quickly, and all of them walked out of the shogunate, quickly gathered their soldiers and horses, and came to the side of the depression in a mighty way, ready to accept surrender.
Fengquan thought for a long time. Last night, he thought about whether he should kill himself. But this morning, Fendquan didn't expect that the problem he had been thinking about all night was not worth mentioning, because the people of Qi sent a bigger and more difficult problem. It is whether to surrender.
The favor of the people of Qi is too great. It has nothing to do with the life of Feng Quan, but the life of the entire Chu army. Those who have wives and children cannot let them die here, this favor must be accepted by Vend Fist.
Fengquan thought about it for a day, watching his brothers gobble up the food that they had given away, their faces covered with mud and in a state of distress, but there was a living light in their eyes, which made Pengquan feel sad.
Feng Quan stood up quickly, propping up a rotten piece of wood casually, and stood up slowly. When he stood up, he seemed to stand out from the crowd. All the soldiers put down their things and looked at them.
Ping Quan was thinking, what was he doing for, to repay his kindness?revenge?Or will he bring his dead brother to death?
Fengquan frowned, and with a sound of "嗻!!!", he suddenly drew the bronze sword from his waist. His movement was so fast that the soldiers next to him jumped. stand up and hinder.
Unexpectedly, however, Pingquan pulled out the long sword suddenly, and then drew a sword flower. With a sound of "Shua!!", he inserted the long sword into the soil at once, and with a sound of "Duo!" After starving and freezing for so many days, he still has amazing arm strength. He inserted the long sword from the root to the root, leaving only a little handle exposed.
Seeing that Fen Quan inserted the sword bestowed by the former king into the soil, everyone seemed to understand what it meant. No one objected, and their hearts became much more relaxed.
The adjutant hurriedly knelt down, clasped his fists and said: "My humble general is willing to follow the general to the death!"
Soon the sky-shattering shouts came one after another.
"The humble general is willing to follow the general to the death!"
When everyone came to the depression, Fend Quan had already rectified the soldiers and horses, and the army officially returned to Qi.
Qihou was dressed in a black court robe, neatly dressed, and he did not despise them just because they were captives. He was dressed very formally, walked over slowly, and said loudly: "What you see in front of you today are all iron bones, no matter where you were born Land, no matter where you grew up, now you are the sons of my country of Qi. If you don’t want to surrender, you can leave now. Our army of Qi will never stop you. Those who want to surrender will be treated like our army of Qi. The food and salary enjoyed by people will not be less than one, just be loyal, and I will definitely not let you down."
Qi Hou just said a few short words, and he had nothing to say. He just said to Cao GUI: "Count up the troops, and release those who are not far away. Those who are willing to surrender should be organized and go to the camp first to rest."
Cao GUI immediately waited respectfully and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but they didn't expect that they would not be able to surrender. Soon there were people who took the lead and wanted to return to Chu State. If there was one, there would be two. Many courageous people proposed to return to Chu State. Qihou didn't stop him, sent troops to escort him, and left soon.
The rest of the people looked at each other in blank dismay, and many people were also thinking, what else could there be if they returned to Chu?Now the state of Chu is in turmoil, but there are some righteous men who sacrificed their soldiers for the sake of the overall situation, what will be left, and what can they get when they go back?
Fengquan watched a group of people being taken away, and a group of people chose to stay, and he was the one who had no choice. After all, Fengquan accepted Qihou's favor, Fengquan knew that he must be the one to stay.
Qu Wan walked over at this time, and he pushed a wheelchair, which Wu Jiu ordered someone to build a long time ago, just to welcome the surrender of Fengquan.
Qu Wan clasped his hands to Ping Quan and said, "General Ping Quan, please stop."
Fengquan never expected that one day he would become a colleague with Qu Wan again, he was filled with emotions, he bowed his hands to Qu Wan, and sat in a wheelchair.
Qu Wan pushed Fuquan and said: "Your Majesty, please take a bath and wash first, then take a meal and rest."
The state of Qi subdued the war god of the state of Chu, Fu Quan, who led the troops to surrender. Qi's army expanded again in an instant, and conquered a group of well-trained iron cavalry.
This news shocked the three armies of Chu State in an instant, and the three armies did not dare to move. They all hid and did not confront Qi State.
When Baoshen heard the news, he was furious. After all, Fen Quan was the great general of Chu State. He had guarded the city gate before and knew Chu State well.
Baoshen was a little panicked, but now there is no other way, only the last way left.
What is the solution?Naturally, it is to offer treasures and seek peace.
Cai Guo also heard the news that Qi Hou subdued the Fist Fist, and immediately defeated the most powerful army of Chu State.
The war between Qi State and Chu State has come to an end for the time being, but it is far from over. Because Pingquan led the troops to surrender, Chu State was severely injured, and the other three armies did not dare to act rashly. Therefore, Qi State's army has a chance to breathe. Amended, simply sent troops to garrison the border towns, and Qihou took Wu Jiu to the capital of Cai.
Wu Jiao is not in good health, Marquis Qi knows it, he drinks wind and eats sand in the border town every day, and it is winter, Wu Jiao has been coughing recently and has a low fever, so Tang Wu also suggested that Wu Jiao should go to Cai Gongjing to recuperate for a while Day is good.
In this way, Marquis Qi led Wu Jiu into the Cai Palace, Marquis Cai Xianwu greeted him personally, and greeted him at the gate of the city. Seeing Qi's army approaching from afar, he bowed his hands deeply and said, "Xianwu pays homage to Qi." Gong! I would like to thank Duke Qi for his great kindness!"
Qihou heard Caihou's voice in the car, and did not get out of the car. After all, Wu Jiao was not very comfortable, lying in the car, sleeping on Qihou's lap, Qihou opened the curtain of the car, The voice was not too loud, and he said: "Cai Gong's words are serious. I am a little tired all the way alone. I wonder if I can go to the posthouse to rest?"
Caihou envy immediately said: "Yes, yes, please drive me, Duke Qi!"
Qihou's motorcade quickly entered the post house, Wu Jiu slept soundly, Qihou hugged him and got out of the car, Wu Jiu didn't wake up, he slept until dinner, he woke up from hunger, and then woke up .
The dinner was served in the palace, and Marquis Cai welcomed the army of Qi. Since Cao GUI stayed behind to garrison at the border, Marquis Qi and Wu Jiu took Qu Wan and the newly recruited general Fu Quan, and went into the palace.
When everyone entered the palace, Cai Hou greeted them all the way, and personally welcomed Qi Hou into the banquet hall, and asked Qi Hou to sit in the chairman's seat, Qi Hou declined for a while, then did not refuse, sat down directly, and let Wu Jiu sit beside him.
Cai Hou sat down with him, thanked Qi Guo for his kindness with a smile, and then said: "Is this the famous Fist General? I haven't seen each other for a long time, and I really admire him for dancing! He is really handsome and majestic." Rin Rin!"
Fengquan doesn't like these hypocrisy. Although he has surrendered to the state of Qi, he hasn't gotten used to it, especially what Xianwu said is very false, like irony. lame.
Ping Quan just cupped his hands and said, "I dare not do it."
Caihou Xianwu immediately clapped his hands and asked people to serve food. Immediately, the dancers and women poured wine and danced to add to the fun.
Feng Quan didn't like the smell, frowned, and lowered his head to eat his own food, while Wu Jiao was very shameless, a dancing girl came with her sleeves flapping, just getting closer, Wu Jiao suddenly sneezed "Ah!" , almost frightened the dancing girl.
When Qi Hou saw it, he immediately laughed.
When Caihou saw that everyone didn't like it, and Qihou also looked uninterested, as if he couldn't see it at all, he had no choice but to give up.
In fact, Caihou has another thing to do at this banquet, and that is to bribe Qihou. Now that he is fighting with Chu, he has just subdued an army of Fuquan, and there are three other troops, so Caihou needs Qi. To continue to help with all our strength, it is natural to bribe Qi State. By the way, we will discuss how to break up the remaining three armies so that Chu State can no longer threaten Cai State.
Before Caihou Xianwu could say this, he suddenly heard that Huben Zhonglang was about to run in. He knelt down and said to everyone in a hurry, "Your Majesty, Duke Qi, all the nobles of Qi, the humble general just received the news." , Chu sent a special envoy."
When Cai Hou heard about the state of Chu, he was still a little frightened and said, "Send a special envoy? What are you sending a special envoy for?"
General Huben Zhonglang hurriedly said: "It is said that the special envoy was sent by Yin Baoshen, the order of the state of Chu. There are only three people in total, and they did not bring any soldiers..."
As he spoke, he looked sideways at Fengquan, and seemed a bit awkward, and said in a stammering voice, "This...the special envoy of Chu State seems to want to negotiate peace with the monarch of Qi State, and ask for Fengquan, a traitor of Chu State. "
Upon hearing this, Marquis Qi laughed, and said, "Baoshen is worthy of being the Ling Yin of the Chu State, what a bold tone! What capabilities do they have?"
The Huben Zhonglang general said again: "The special envoy seems to have brought a treasure, ready to present it to the king of Qi, saying it is... what Heshibi."
Wu Jiu caught a cold, he was groggy, he had no taste in his mouth, he was really uncomfortable, he almost fell asleep again after eating, but when he heard the word "Heshibi", he woke up immediately Like a stimulant, his eyes lit up.
