Chapter 1014 The battle is deadlocked, the three kings are happy(1/2)
Due to stuttering, Han Fei always spoke concisely.
Fortunately, Han Fei's words were not so difficult to understand this time, so Li Mu immediately put down the big stone in his heart.
"This is really great. I'll tell you that I've been having a headache before. How can I solve this problem?
Now, there is no need to worry about it.”
Li Mu also breathed a sigh of relief. For Li Mu, he really had no choice but to do with such a siege.
After all, the tall and strong city walls are completely in conflict with the tactics that Li Mu, as a cavalry general, advocates large-scale interweaving.
If you want to change this, there was actually no way to do it before, but now that you can use explosives, it is naturally the most perfect solution.
Li Mu was in a state of great interest to call his confidant to give instructions, but immediately remembered what Zhao Kuo said in the letter, and then smiled and picked up the pen.
Let’s write a memorial to go to Handan first to make King Zhao happy.
After writing a few words, Li Mu suddenly slapped his thigh and smiled at Han Fei in front of him, saying, "Come on, come on, please write it for me this time.
No, your handwriting is also recognized by the King, so I can just copy it by dictating it.”
Han Fei couldn't help but smile and shook his head with a smile, obviously speechless at the actions of Li Mu.
...In the Qi Palace, the Qi King has no intention of having a banquet and drinking these days. Many times, they either sit in the palace in a daze or ask someone to come and ask about the current situation of the war.
What made the King of Qi feel a little more at ease was that the news that came back from the front line of Changguo City during this period was quite reassuring. At least the Zhao army did not seem to have any signs of being able to break Changguo City.
Another front-line battle report of Changguojun was delivered. Kuang Liang still stated the situation in a calm tone in this battle report, and told the King of Qi that everything in Changguo City is still under control.
This also made King Qi feel relieved and his mood suddenly improved a lot.
"It seems that these Zhao people are not omnipotent."
After putting down the war report, the King of Qi spoke to himself.
After hearing the words of King Qi, Hou Sheng, who was beside King Qi, was immediately resurrected with blood and hurriedly said, "With a wise and powerful king like the King, how could a mere Zhao people break through the city guarded by our elite troops in the Great Qi?"
Although King Qi knew that Hou Sheng was flattering, it was strange. The flattering that I heard a few days ago was particularly unhappy, but today it seemed that it began to become pleasant again.
King Qi glanced at him and said lightly: "You don't have to follow me all day long. Are the army's logistics ready? How are the local officials doing to appease the people?
Also, has the military pay from the front line been transported?
If these things are not finished, I will hold you accountable!"
Although King Qi has indeed been enjoying himself over the years, he has experienced the orthodox royal education of Qi State, and he still has the most basic knowledge of governing the country.
Hou Sheng hurriedly said, "The King is indeed wise. He pointed out the most important and critical points in our Daqi today.
Please rest assured, the old minister has remembered the things that the king ordered now. If someone will do it immediately, it will definitely satisfy the king!"
King Qi snorted, satisfied with Hou Sheng's attitude.
At this moment, King Qi suddenly felt... a little bored.
This is actually understandable. After all, King Qi has not lived a drunken life and dreaming life for half a month.
The King of Qi didn't feel it before, because the pressure of life and death in Qi was directly suppressed heavily, but now the King of Qi suddenly felt that the pressure was not that great.
When this person was not under such great pressure, the desires that were originally suppressed by the pressure were like the grass in spring, and they emerged from every corner of his heart.
King Qi coughed and said to Hou Sheng: "Hou Xiang, I have indeed been under a lot of pressure recently.
Look at... are there any unzipping projects?"
After listening to it, Hou Sheng was stunned for a moment.
After all, Hou Sheng didn't expect that it was this time, and King Qi could still think about those things?
King Qi waited for a few seconds and did not wait for Hou Sheng's reply. He felt a little unhappy and his tone of speaking became stronger: "Is there any or no!"
Hou Sheng then came to his senses and hurriedly said, "What the king said is, as long as the king wants, there must be it! Please rest assured, give me two hours, the old minister will definitely handle it for the king!"
The King of Qi then showed a satisfied smile and said to Hou Sheng: "Okay, hurry up and do it!"
Later that day, melodious music sounded from the main hall of the Qi Palace. In the fragrance of wine, the cheerful laughter of the King of Qi was very harsh.
"That's great, this is what you want!"
...When King Chu learned that Zhao State was not going well, his reaction was almost the same as that of King Qi.
"Very good. It seems that these Zhao people were just bullying those small countries before. When they had the ability to meet a real big country, they still showed their timidity."
The King of Chu also mocked Zhao without hesitation. Although the King of Chu was indeed very afraid of Zhao in his heart, and was also very afraid of Zhao Kuo, the prime minister Wu Xinjun of Zhao Kuo, no matter from which perspective, the King of Chu was very happy to see Zhao's failure.
However, this time, since the Chu State Grand Marshal Jingyang, who was the most opposed to Zhao, had already led his troops to fight, although there were also people who responded to the King of Chu in this hall, they were not so qualified after all.
This inevitably made the King of Chu a little unhappy.
If you are an ordinary person, even if this person is unhappy, at most he can just curse a few words quietly and can't do anything.
But the King of Chu is different. The King of Chu is the supreme ruler of the huge Chu State. When he is unhappy, he can of course find a few people to play with, so that he can exude this hatred in his heart.
The King of Chu looked around and finally set his eyes on Chunshen Jun.
The reason why Chunshenjun is actually very simple, because Chunshenjun is the most firmly supporting Zhao Guoyi faction.
Now that Zhao State has put such great psychological pressure on the King of Chu, the King of Chu wants to vent his anger. Who else can he find if he doesn’t look for Chunshenjun?
Although Chunshengjun is the most trusted minister of the King of Chu on weekdays, the king is the king. When the King of Chu wants to play Chunshenjun, Chunshenjun must continue honestly.
The King of Chu said lightly: "Mr. Chunshen, what do you think of these failures in Zhao State now?"
After hearing what the King of Chu said, Chunshen Jun was also stunned.
In Chunshenjun's opinion, since the King of Chu was unwilling to give Chunshenjun the opportunity to lead troops this time, Chunshenjun should be fine in this war.
It was precisely because of this consideration that Chunshen Jun did not say a word during this court discussion, in order to reduce his presence so that the King of Chu would feel that it was such a time and he would still compete with Jingyang and the others for credit.
But Chunshen Jun never expected that even if he didn't speak, the King of Chu still came to him for no reason.
Of course, the King of Chu had to answer the words, so Chunshen Jun also said, "Please rest assured, Zhao's failure was not accidental. As long as our Chu and the other two countries cooperate sincerely, we will achieve more victories in the future."
Chunshenjun is not a fool either. He actually said that Chunshenjun himself is indeed a good friend to Zhao Kuo, but in this situation, both sides are their own leaders, so Chunshenjun naturally has to stand on the interests of Chu.
After hearing Chunshenjun's words, the King of Chu couldn't help laughing and said something to Chunshenjun with a very strong sarcastic expression.
"I thought Chunshen Jun would talk to Zhao State, but I didn't expect Chunshen Jun would think that our Chu State would win is really rare."
The words of the King of Chu were heard by Chunshenjun, and they were shocked by Chunshenjun.
Because in Chunshenjun's view, King Chu was obviously mocking Chunshenjun, and it was even likely that he was implying that Chunshenjun and the people of Zhao had secretly colluded.
The most important thing to be a minister is of course loyalty. When the king doubts loyalty, then the minister is likely to be about to reach the end of his life.
So Chunshenjun hurriedly began to defend himself: "Don't misunderstand, you must not misunderstand this. There is absolutely no such thing.
Although the old minister did have some personal relationships with Wu Xinjun, the official affairs and private affairs are different after all. In any case, the old minister is absolutely loyal to the king and to the Great Chu."
Chunshenjun said, sweat came out of his forehead.
Looking at Chunshen Jun who was frightened, the King of Chu smiled with satisfaction.
This is the result that is needed.
The King of Chu wanted to let other Chu ministers present look at it. Even the King of Chu, the ruler of the State of Chu, was just an old guy who was randomly controlled in front of the King of Chu! This would make these disobedient ministers feel awe from the bottom of their hearts! The King of Chu took the opportunity to glance at the other Chu ministers in the hall. Sure enough, these ministers bowed their heads obediently, and no one dared to look at the King of Chu.
The King of Chu was satisfied.
The King of Chu waited deliberately for a while, and he spoke slowly until Chunshen Jun was completely uneasy and felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles.
"Mr. Chunshen, of course I know that you are a loyal minister, but you must remember that Zhao is now the biggest enemy of our Chu State.
So from now on, you must cut off all contact with Zhao State. Do you understand?"
What else can Chunshenjun say at this time?
Of course I can only nod my head repeatedly.
The King of Chu breathed a sigh of relief, was in a good mood, and waved his hand with a smile: "Okay, if there is nothing, let's go!"
After a moment, Chunshenjun left the hall with great worries.
For Chunshen Jun, he really didn't think clearly about why the King of Chu inexplicably attacked him?
At this moment, a voice behind him called Chunshenjun: "Wait, wait!"
Chunshenjun stopped, turned around and found that it was his uncle Li Yuan.
Li Yuan walked up with a smile and said to Chunshen Jun: "I'm having a little itchy throat today. I happened to see Junhou, so I wanted to go to Junhou for a glass of wine. I wonder if Junhou can give me this face?"
Since Li Yuan was a retainer of Chunshenjun back then, the relationship between the two was quite close. There was nothing wrong with other ministers passing by. He just thought that Li Yuan came up to comfort him after seeing Chunshenjun being scolded.
Even Chunshenjun thought so himself, so he showed a gratitude on his face and said to Li Yuan: "Li Qing was joking. Since it was Li Qing who spoke, how could I not invite Li Qing to have a few drinks?
Let's go and go home with me!"
One hour later, the two sat in Chunshenjun's mansion, with delicious wine and delicacies in front of them, and they started drinking together.
Chunshenjun is old after all, and he can't drink much, so after drinking a few drinks, he feels drunk and his words are a little uncontrollable.
Chunshenjun put down his wine glass and sighed, "Li Qing, why did you think the king suddenly accuse me today?"
Li Yuan touched his nose, burped, and smiled and said, "Chunshenjun, you are the king's teacher. If you don't even know, how could I know?"
