"General!" Ning Jun and the other two had a smile on their faces when they saw Gongwei coming out to greet them, and they were surprised and shocked. In the past, they just thought Gongwei was a young boy. Although they were smart and brave, they were young after all. They were more grateful for Gongwei and did not have much fear. So when Qin Jia advised them to rebel, they did not agree to Qin Jia, nor were they worried about Gongwei. But now Gongwei solved Qin Jia with lightning speed, and drove Jing Ju, Qin Jia and others to kill them, which immediately made them see the bloody and vicious side of Gongwei. The slightest contempt in their hearts disappeared, and they dared not be careless again.

"The three are coming so fast." Gongwei looked at them with a smile, looked at the semi-wet cloaks on their bodies, and knew that they had arrived overnight, so he signaled Du Yu to prepare some wine and food: "You probably haven't eaten breakfast yet, and I haven't happened to eat either, so let's have a meal together and talk."

Ning Jun and the other two looked at each other, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and replied, "Thank you General."

"You don't have to be too polite to your own people." Gongwei took the seat first and chatted with them easily: "How are you doing there recently? Is there any news about the Qin army?"

"Fortunately, General Lu from Pei County said that Sima Ren was going to come to Pei County with his army in Changyi and Shanfu's area, but the food and supplies were robbed by the thieves from Juyeze, which delayed his trip, so he had to retreat to Dingtao. Zhang Han was besieging Linji, and he should not come to Pei County again for a while." Ning Jun talked happily and briefly introduced the situation in Pei County to Gongwei.

"Thieves?" Gongwei put down his chopsticks curiously, "Where did the thief come from so bravely that he dared to rob the Qin army's baggage?"

Zhu Jishi also smiled, swallowed the food in his mouth, and wiped his mouth. "General, don't underestimate this group of thieves. Although there are only more than a thousand people, they are elusive and have no place to live. After Sima Ren was robbed of food and grass, he looked for him for half a month, but he did not catch their shadows. He had to go to Dingtao in shame."

"Is that true?" Gongwei couldn't help but think of the guerrillas. This group of thieves had a guerrilla smell. "Who is the leader?"

Zhu Jishi scratched his head and thought for a long time before slapping his thigh and said, "I heard that it is a man named Peng Zhong."

"Peng Zhong?"

"The big name is Peng Yue, and his courtesy name is Zhong, and everyone calls him Peng Zhong." Ning Jun added.

"Peng Yue?" Gongwei stopped chopsticks and suddenly realized. It turned out that it was him, Peng Yue, who claimed to be a guerrilla expert, no wonder he was so elusive. He immediately became interested and asked Ning Jun in detail about Peng Yue, but Ning Jun had limited knowledge. He said to Gongwei: "We are too far away from Peng Yue, General Lu should know something. If you are interested, you might as well send someone to ask him."

Gongwei nodded repeatedly.

"General, there is nothing wrong with the western front for the time being, but the north is not peaceful." Ning Jun said in a deep voice: "Since the news of King Chen's defeat, the people of Qi are ready to move. The scouts of the Qi army have appeared in Lu County and Pingyang. Now Qin Jia is dead again, I... I have no king in Chu. I am afraid that they will take advantage of the situation and ask the general to prepare."

"I have a good attitude to this." Gongwei nodded, "I have sent Tian Ziwei to send a letter to King Qi to discuss related matters with him. You each guard the border and do not provoke war easily. But..." He paused and continued, "If they ignore the overall situation and insist on invading my border, don't be polite and beat him hard. If anyone does not offend me, I will not offend others. If someone attacks me, I will offend others."

"Here." Ning Jun and others were taught with stern amazement.

"Tian Ziwei is good at using troops, so he will decide what is happening here. Don't worry." Gongwei looked at the three of them, and saw that they were a little unnatural, and then smiled: "I know he is a clan of Qi, but he is a principled person and will not harm the public for personal gain."

"We understand." Ning Jun and others saw that Gongwei was so confident, so they couldn't say anything more.

Ning Jun and others stayed in Tan County for two days and returned to their garrisons. Gongwei asked Ning Jun to bring a letter to Lu Ze, who was stationed in Pei County, so that he could guard Pei County with peace of mind without rushing over to meet. After the matter here was over, he would go to Pei County. He also took special care of Lu Ze and asked him to send someone to contact Peng Yue. If he was willing to submit, that would be better. If he was not willing, don't force him. If Peng Yue had any difficulties, try to help him as much as possible. - At this time, one more friend is better than one more enemy.

Ning Jun is gone, and someone from Qi is here.

King Tian Dan of Qi received news from Tian Zhuang that the Gongwei had easily solved Qin Jia. He was very surprised. After discussing with Tian Rong, he decided to send Gaoling Jun Tian Xian to investigate the movements of Gongwei. Tian Xian was in his fifties, gentle and elegant, and calm. When he saw Gongwei, he smiled and saluted: "Tian Xian had seen the Gongwei General, congratulations to the general for quelling the Qinjia Rebellion."

Gongwei descended to the steps to welcome him and bowed back to his greeting: "Gaoling Lord has worked hard for him. What's the point of being a little bitchy? Gongwei also thanked the King of Qi for being honest and not taking advantage of the situation. Qi and Lu are the hometown of poetry and rituals. As expected, the Confucian style has been long and moral integrity has lasted forever."

Tian Xian blushed and smiled awkwardly. The King of Qi did not support Qin Jia, but it was not that he did not want to interfere in the affairs of Chu State, but because he wanted to take the opportunity to gain some benefits, he did not recognize Qin Jia. Gongwei said this, obviously because he had something to say.

"General, be polite, so should it be." Tian Xian laughed dryly, gave in to Gong Weiqian and went into the lobby, and sat down with the host and the guest. After a few chats, he said, "General, I don't know where King Chen is now?"

The Gongwei sighed and his face was sad: "I will not hide it from Gaolingjun. King Chen is already unfortunate. The middle road collapsed and died. He is now stopping in Lingqi County. He is waiting for 10% of the tombs. He also wants to ask the King of Qi to send envoys to mourn."

"King Chen has collapsed?" Tian Xian pretended to be surprised, and was stunned for a while before saying, "Then who is the decision of your Chu State now?"

Gongwei looked at Tian Xian and laughed secretly. They still don’t know the news that Chen Sheng died in battle? Since Chen Sheng was going to be buried in Daze Township, of course, under his auspices, the Qi people pretended not to know, and obviously wanted to play a two-sided and three-killing strategy to get some benefits from it. I have heard that the Qi people are good at doing business, and it is indeed good now. He smiled relaxedly: "Although King Chen abandoned us, my Grand Chu ruler, Shangzhu Kingdom, is still there, so they will be regent for the time being. When King Chen's funeral is over, everyone will discuss the future."

Tian Xian smiled slightly, but did not expose it. "What the general said is that with the emperor, Lord Lu, and Lord Xiang of Shangzhu, your Chu State will naturally not be in chaos. Now that the Qin army is attacking Linji, the King of Wei will probably send someone to ask for help from your Chu State soon. Our Chu, Qi, Zhao, and Wei share the same hatred of the enemy. If one country is in trouble, the other countries should help them with all their strength. If your Chu State can be stable and have nothing to do, it is of course the best. The Communist general is the bravest of the three armies. If you want to aid Wei, I am afraid that the general will go on an expedition again, right?"

Gongwei pondered for a moment and smiled slightly: "This is really nothing to be told at the moment. Everything must be discussed with you. However, as Gao Lingjun said, our countries share the same hatred of the enemy, and we should help each other, instead of destroying each other, and causing the Qin people to get a bargain. I dare to ask Gao Lingjun to reply to the King of Qi. Although I, Chu people, are rude, will never be a step ahead of Qi."

As Gongwei said, his eyes staring at Tian Xian sharply. Tian Xian did not dare to face Gongwei's gaze. He heard Gongwei's dissatisfaction and warning from Gongwei's seemingly guaranteed words, and at the same time he also heard Gongwei's determination to fight back with all his might when necessary. At the moment, the Qin army is strong and it is indeed not appropriate to be accused of this Chu barbarian. He nodded repeatedly: "General is right. I will definitely reply to the King of Qi, restrain the generals, and guard the borders."

"The Gongwei is so grateful." Gongwei smiled and raised his wine glass to signal: "Please be the King of Qi."

Tian Xian left, and Gongwei invited Tian Zhuang again and handed over the defense of Tan County to him again. Tian Zhuang was ashamed and swore to Gongwei with his chest that the city was in, and the city was dead. Gongwei said a few words to him, and then left Tan County and returned to Pengcheng by taking Pei County. When he was in Pei County, he stopped and lingered with Lu Ze for two days. After receiving Ning Jun's message, Lu Ze had already prepared and took Gongwei to inspect Pei County and Hu Ling's defense. Lu Ze was calm and did not talk much, but he did a solid job and the rectification of several counties was orderly. Gongwei couldn't help but sigh that he had found a bargain: getting married to the Lu family not only gave him a beauty in vain, but also had two good generals.

In addition to official business, Gongwei had a detailed discussion with the father and son of the Lu family. Lu Gong and Lu Ze learned from Lu Yu that Liu Ji had left Lu Zhi and ran away alone, and sighed, as if there was something unspeakable. Although Gongwei felt a little confused, he didn't ask much.

After the banquet, Gongwei went back to rest first, but Lu Xi stayed to talk to Lu Gong. Lu Ze for a long time, but he didn't go back at night, so he rested with Mrs. Lu. The mother and the mother slept together and whispered all night. The next day, when Gongwei saw Lu Xi, he saw that her eyes were red and swollen, and he couldn't help but tease him: "What, I can't bear to part with Aweng's mother? Otherwise, you stay in Pei County first and come back to pick you up after I finish the war."

Lu Xi did not act like Gong Wei expected, and she smiled twice, hugged Gong Wei's arm tightly, buried her head in Gong Wei's chest, and sobbed silently. Gong Wei was very surprised. Lu Xi was like Lu Zhi, with a strong personality and rarely had such a weak time. What happened today? Who was so angry that she was so angry?

"Sister... my life is too hard." Lu Xi sobbed: "I used to treat her anger, but now when I think about it, I'm really ignorant."
