Former Qin Fengyun

It was already midnight in Luoyang, where everything was silent, and occasionally a few black sparrows flapped their wings and flew across the night.The officers and soldiers in the city patrolled as usual.

Suddenly, from a distance, nearly a hundred people dressed in Hun servants rushed towards here on horseback.The officers and soldiers on the city immediately rang the bell as a warning, while drawing their bows and arrows to fend off the enemy.

General Yang Wu Shen Jin who was sleeping was awakened by his soldiers.Shen Jin immediately stood up and asked, "What happened?"

The subordinate asked: "General Qi, nearly a hundred Huns came on horseback and wanted to attack the city!"

Shen Jin, who was sleepy, felt very unhappy after listening to it, and said: "A mere hundred Xiongnu dared to attack the city, it is really domineering and reckless! Hurry up and order three thousand troops, and you will be wiped out!"

The soldiers saluted and said yes to go down.

After a stick of incense, Shen Jin, who was neatly dressed, rushed out of the gate of Luoyang with straight brows and angry faces with three thousand soldiers.Shen Jin pulled out the sword at his waist and shouted loudly: "All officers and soldiers obey the order, and quickly wipe out all the Huns!"

Three thousand soldiers responded in unison: "Yes!"

When the people surrounded the hundred Huns and were about to attack, they suddenly saw thousands of carved feather arrows flying from both sides of the city.Only then did Shen Jin realize that he was caught in the trap and hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and go back to the city!"

But it was too late. Murong Ke and Murong Chui led the [-] Yan army to rush to Luoyang.Murong Chui, who had beheaded countless Qin soldiers along the way, finally came before Shen Jin, who was being protected by several Qin soldiers and wanted to return to the city.

Shen Jin, who had experienced many battles, saw the tall, mighty, thick-browed and broad-mouthed general in golden helmet and armor. Although he was over the middle of the year, he was as majestic as Mount Tai, so majestic.Therefore, the guilty Shen Jin hurriedly turned his horse's head, planning to escape.But he was stopped by Murong Chui.The two had nothing to say, and they fought together.Within twenty rounds, Shen Jin died in Murong Chui's hands.

As soon as the main general died, the Qin army was in chaos.Therefore, Murong Ke ordered the Yan army to attack the city.For a moment, the shouts of killing were deafening, and blood flowed into rivers of corpses everywhere.

After an hour, the shouting and killing gradually died down and stopped.Yan Jun cheered and jumped happily.

Murong Ke came in front of Murong Chui, who was already covered in blood, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Fifth brother is really invincible!"

Murong Chui said a little shyly, "Third brother was joking."

Murong Ke said with a smile: "There's no reason to boast! If that's the case, let Fu Jian speak for himself."

In the next few days, Murong Ke came to Xiao, Mian.At the same time, he also ordered Murong Chui to lead [-] troops to guard Luyang.

After Fu Jian on the Golden Palace heard the news, his face changed drastically.Li Wei stepped out of the court and saluted and said: "I would like to report to the king of heaven, I am willing to lead the army to fight!"

Fu Jian nodded and said: "The widow will personally march!"

At this time, Yang An also came out to salute and said: "It is true that the imperial conquest will boost morale, but" he has not finished.

Fu Jian said: "The survival of the country cannot be settled in the palace!"

Yang An was speechless.

At the same time, Wang Meng came out to salute and said: "It's better for the king of heaven to lead [-] soldiers to confront Murong Ke, while General Li leads [-] troops to attack Luyang. As long as Murong Chui is defeated, Murong Ke will naturally retreat."

Fu Jian nodded and said: "This plan is very good, so Lao Aiqing and the crown prince will stay in Chang'an to handle the government affairs temporarily."

Wang Meng saluted and said yes.

An hour later, the army left Chang'an.Fu Jian led [-] troops to Shancheng to prevent Murong Ke from continuing to attack, while Li Wei led his troops to march quickly to attack Luyang.

But Murongchui, who had already laid a dark hill ten miles away from Luyang, couldn't help smiling when he heard that the Qin army had arrived.

When Li Wei and others reached a place less than nine miles away from Luyang, he ordered: "Set up camp on the spot."

But before he finished speaking, nearly [-] Yan troops rushed out from both sides of the forest, and the leader was Murong Chui.I saw him leading the Yan army into the Qin army's camp like a tiger descending a mountain.

Facing these Yan troops falling from the sky, Qin Jun was stunned.There is only the power of parrying, and there is no power to fight back.As soon as Li Wei saw that something was wrong, he immediately ordered: "Throw the money and belongings on the ground quickly!" Qin Jun followed suit.Li Wei shouted again: "Qin Jun listens to the order and rushes out with this general!"

At this time, a lieutenant beside Murong Chui hurriedly saluted and said, "My lord, this is a plan for the golden cicada to get out of its shell. Don't let the tiger go back to the mountain to prevent future troubles!" Go back to the city to celebrate!" Although the lieutenant wanted to say something more, Murong Chui turned his horse and left.

After running for nearly four miles, the Qin army was already exhausted. Li Wei ordered the army to rest on the spot and at the same time sent people to inquire about the situation of the Yan army.

Half an hour later, the spies came back to report that Murong Chui was leading the Yan army back to the city slowly.After Li Wei listened, he said to himself: "The purpose of bringing troops here this time is to suppress the arrogance of the Yan army and force them to retreat. But now they are losing power here." Thinking of this, he said to the Qin army: "Generals and soldiers, this time At that time, the Yan army must have expected that we would run away when we were a little frustrated just now, so we were not in a hurry to return to the city. But there is a saying in the art of war that "a proud soldier will be defeated, and it is unexpected." If we return now, we will definitely kill all the Yan army. !"

Qin Jun, who was eager to win, shouted loudly; "No piece of armor will be left behind!"

After a stick of incense, the spies rode up to Murong Chui, saluted and said, "My lord, Li Wei's troops have come here."

Murong Chui nodded calmly and said, "Go down."

The spies saluted and said yes to go down.

The lieutenant beside him saluted impatiently and said, "My lord, please bring the troops back to the city quickly, the last general will die!"

But Murong Chui smiled slightly, patted his shoulder lightly, then turned around and said, "Go forward at the same speed."

Half an hour later, Li Wei led ten thousand Qin troops to Murong Chui.But to everyone's surprise, Murong Chui did not order to fight Qin Jun.

Li Wei didn't understand what he meant, he pointed at Murong Chui and said, "What's the meaning?"

Murong Chui looked at Li Wei, clasped his fists and said, "Little Wang has heard about the general's reputation for a long time, and it's a great fortune to meet him today. I wished to compete with the general, but the general has gone all the way. If I do it now, I'm afraid I won't be able to win." Wu. Why don't you rest in place and decide the outcome after three sticks of incense. How about it?"

Li Wei said to himself: "Why did Murong Chui put forward a condition that is not good for him? I'm afraid it's deceitful. But the soldiers behind me have the word tired written all over their faces." So he nodded and said, "Okay!"

In this way, the two sides rested in place.After three incense sticks, both sides fought to one place with weapons in hand.But for some reason, the Qin army, which originally had an advantage in numbers, was vulnerable to a single blow.In just half an hour, only Li Wei and less than [-] Qin troops were still fighting, and the others were either killed, wounded, or surrendered.As soon as Li Wei saw that something was wrong, he hurriedly led people to attack and escaped successfully.

At this time, the deputy general saluted Murong Chui and said: "My lord, the general is willing to take him back!"

Murong Chui shook his head and said: "This time I came to Qin State, one is to test its details, and the other is to take the opportunity to occupy the city and seize treasures. But Li Wei is Fu Jian's right-hand man. If he is killed, Fu Jian will pay for it with blood."

The lieutenant nodded and said: "My lord's words are reasonable. But forgive me for being stupid, and still not understanding how the lord will fight this time? Please clarify."

Murong Chui looked at him and said: "Firstly, the generals are picking up money and walking slowly to confuse the Qin army and let them return. Second, although the returning Qin army is exhausted, their morale is high, so let them rest. Not only It will make the legs and feet of those who have been running for a long time swollen and unstable, and it will also weaken their morale. Our military can win more with less."

After hearing this, the deputy general couldn't help exclaiming: "The king is the god of using soldiers, no one can match him!"

Murong Chui said with a smile: "Take back the troops and return to the city!"

With two thousand remnants of soldiers, Li Wei rushed all the way to Shancheng.Fu Jian was shocked when he saw Li Wei returning in a complete defeat with his helmet and armor removed.

Li Wei bowed on his knees and said: "The last general is incompetent, please punish him!"

Fu Jian hastily helped him up with his own hands, and asked: "Is Murong Chui really so powerful?"

Although Li Wei was reluctant, he nodded helplessly.

At this moment, an informant came in from the outside, saluted and said, "Report to the Heavenly King, the envoy of the Kingdom of Yan is asking to see you."

Fu Jian immediately said: "Xuan."

The reporter saluted and said yes to go down.Li Wei stood aside.

After a while, the envoy from the Kingdom of Yan came in, bowed his hands and said: "This is a letter written by the head coach of my family, please have a look at it." He presented the letter with both hands.

A soldier beside Fu Jian took the letter and handed it to Fu Jian.Fu Jian opened the letter, and his face changed drastically after reading it.After a long time, he slowly raised his head and said in a low mood: "The widow promises that it will be handed over after seven days."

After the envoy finished listening, he bowed his hands and saluted with a smile and said, "Thank you, Heavenly King, for making it perfect." Then he left the big tent.

Li Wei asked anxiously: "Heavenly King, don't you know this letter?"

Fu Jian said helplessly: "If you hand over 50 taels of silver, you will retreat."

Li Wei opened his eyes wide and said: "50 taels!" Then he bowed his head in silence, regretting that he failed to defeat Murong Chui, causing the King of Heaven to humiliate Qin and lose his wealth.So, he knelt down and saluted again and said, "Please forgive me, the king of heaven!"

Fu Jian smiled wryly, then helped him up with his own hands and said, "Uncle, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, why bother to blame yourself? Besides, Qin State never came to Yan State."

Only then did Li Wei stand up and salute and thank him.

Fu Jian said again: "Murong Ke has already set in the west, so there is no danger. It's just Murong Chui. If I get this general, Qin will surely prosper."

Li Wei was speechless, silent.

Seven days later, the State of Qin mobilized 50 taels of silver and delivered it in full, and Murong Ke withdrew his troops.

After returning to Chang'an, Fu Jian was in a low mood, so Zhang Muzhen cooked himself, made a bowl of porridge with white fungus, lotus seeds and pears, and said softly, "Heavenly King."

Fu Jian turned around and saw Zhang Muzhen and the porridge in his hands, and then he showed a smile and said, "Let the palace servants do it, why cook it yourself?" He took the porridge with both hands, and took a silver spoon to drink it a mouthful.

Zhang Muchai asked tentatively, "How?"

Fu Jian nodded and said, "Everything Madam makes is delicious in the world."

Seeing that Fu Jian's mood improved, Zhang Muxie said again: "My concubine firmly believes that everything has its destiny. Although Qin has no generals like Murong Chui, it is like the prince of Kongming. Besides, life is unpredictable. I don't know. Someday, this Murong Chui will defect to the Heavenly King and be used by the Heavenly King."

Although Fu Jian knew that this matter could not happen, he still said: "If it is true, I will definitely entrust you with a heavy responsibility."

Zhang Muzhen nodded with a smile, and Fu Jian put the porridge full of silver spoons into his mouth, and Zhang Muzhen ate it with a smile.
