Chapter 09

Zang Tu and Shen Yang were seated as guests and hosts respectively. The officer had already left. A soldier brought two cups of tea and placed them on the table before leaving. At this time, the tent was extremely quiet, with only the two of them sitting opposite each other.

, all sipping tea in silence.

Zang Tu had a good impression of Shen Yang in front of him, and what he said when he first entered the tent aroused great interest in Zang Tu.

At this time, after taking a sip of hot tea, Zang Tu couldn't help but laugh loudly and said: "You said that you are not here for the military ministers. Then tell me, why are you going to Yan as an envoy?"

Shen Yang had already expected that Zang Tu would use this to open up the topic, so when he came, he had a clue in his mind, but at the moment, he couldn't tell it directly, otherwise it would appear that he had premeditated it. At this time, Shen Yang

Yang slowly put down the teacup and pretended to think. After a moment, Shen Yang sighed: "Seeing that the end of the Yan Kingdom is approaching, I couldn't bear the general's humiliation, so I came to rescue him."

Zang Tu refused to listen, but when he heard what Shen Yang said, he felt a little unhappy and said coldly: "I'm afraid it's your Zhao country that's in trouble, right?"

"Why did the general say this? Seeing that the Yan Kingdom is about to attack the country with a large number of troops, it is very dangerous!" Shen Yang pretended to be surprised and looked anxious. Seeing the urgency of Shen Yang's words, Zang Tu felt uncertain and said in surprise:

"Tell me, why is our Yan country in danger?"

Seeing that Zang Tu was a little tempted, Shen Yang said: "How much does the general know about Zhang Er and Chen Yu?"

"This..." Zang Tu paused, and Shen Yang continued: "At this time, the two of them are drinking and celebrating in the tent. Soon they will fight to the north. I wonder if the Yan State can be inferior?"

At this time, Zang Tu was completely furious. He stood up resolutely and said, "I, Dayan, have no less than one hundred thousand armored men. Why do you underestimate me so much?"

"Since ancient times, teachers have always been strong and old. The Yan State indiscriminately killed the envoys of the Zhao State and imprisoned the Zhao State monarch. How can the Zhao people not fight with all their strength for this hatred? Once the King of Yan assassinates the King of Zhao, he will tell Zhang Er

I have told you that I have divided the Zhao territory equally, vowing to fight to the death, and marching with a strong army to the north. The morale is high, and I am invincible. It is like destroying the enemy. Just imagine, can the Yan army be inferior?"

Speaking of this, Shen Yang stopped talking. He glanced at Zang Tu and saw that he was a little anxious. Shen Yang continued: "The reason why Zhang Er and Chen Yu keep sending envoys is because they know that it will be difficult for them to come when they come."

Go back, but these are not important. His purpose is not to return to King Zhao.

But I want to take this opportunity to make you misunderstand that the State of Zhao attaches great importance to welcoming back the King of Zhao. Once you fall into the trap, you will despise the State of Zhao. The State of Zhao can take the opportunity to anger the King of Yan. The King of Yan will be furious and kill the King of Zhao.

It can help the Zhang and Chen families divide the Zhao territory equally. How can the general not investigate this situation?"

This time, Zang Tu was completely anxious. If it was true as Shen Yang said, the line between Zhang Er and Chen Yufang was too long! Not only did they want to divide Zhao's land equally, but they also wanted to take the opportunity to go north to defeat the Yan army and occupy it.

Yan Di, at this moment, Zang Tu couldn't sit still anymore. He couldn't help but stand up, cupped his hands and said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I will report to my king immediately and let King Zhao go back."

After saying that, Zang Tu hurriedly walked out of the tent without looking back. Looking at Zang Tu's leaving figure, Shen Yang couldn't help but sneered.

...

Han Guang was meditating in front of the map at this time. The military officials were detained in the Yan camp. The Zhao army was leaderless. There was bound to be civil strife and the morale of the army was unstable. How could they resist the Yan army? In the view of the military officials, this was the time to go south to attack Zhao.

Good opportunity.

However, taking action without planning is the courage of a reckless man. Han Guang knew very well that although Zhao Jun lost its commander, Chen Yu Zhanger under the command of the military minister was not a junior and should not be underestimated.

Just when the military minister was hesitating, thinking about when to go south, Zang Tu and Zhou Tong quickly walked into the tent. They came to Han Guang, cupped their hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

Seeing the solemn expressions of the two of them, Han Guang felt suspicious in his heart. At this time, he walked back to his soft seat and sat down. He asked in surprise: "Why are you two so panicked?"

Zang Tu didn't wait for Han Guang to sit firmly, took a step forward, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I got the latest news that Zhao Jun has plans to go north for a decisive battle."

"They still dare to go north? Aren't they afraid that the king will kill the military minister?" Han Guang couldn't help but sneered. His contempt and frivolity made Zang Tu sigh. But at this time, he could only try his best to persuade Han Guang and make some remarks.

Thinking, he said in a deep voice: "Big

King, I got a message, Zhang Er, Chen Yu has been plotting in the Zhao Kingdom for a long time. They want you to kill the military minister. Then they can justifiably divide the Zhao Kingdom and march north. By then, the Zhao army will be able to fight a hundred. We

It’s hard to resist.”

Speaking of this, Zang Tu glanced at Han Guang and saw that he was still listening. Zang Tu said again: "Even if we can resist Zhao Jun's northward march, the losses will still be huge, and the gains are not worth the losses! Besides, we are connected to the Xiongnu and Donghu to the north.

, Goguryeo, once we are defeated in the battle with the Zhao army, it will be difficult to guarantee that these barbarian countries will not take advantage of the danger and attack us. Your Majesty, you must think twice before doing this!"

Zang Tu finally persuaded Han Guang after a lot of hard work. At this time, he had already stood up and paced, balancing the pros and cons and trying to figure out the credibility of the news at a very fast speed. After an unknown amount of time, Han Guang finally made up his mind and ordered

: "What you said makes sense. I have decided to let the military minister go. You can handle this matter."

Zang Tu was overjoyed and immediately held up his hands and said: "General, I will definitely handle this matter well."

...

With Han Guang's tacit consent, Zang Tu immediately rushed to the other tent, took the military minister out, and entertained Shen Yang and the military minister with wine to express his apology and briefly talk about the past events.

In the afternoon, as the sun set, Zang Tu selected several fast boats to send Wu Chen and Shen Yang away. Then he breathed a long sigh of relief. This matter was finally over. At least, for now, the two countries could live in peace with each other.

It's over.

After Shen Yang and Wu Chen left Zang Tu, they took a boat and headed for the south bank of the Daqing River. This time, Wu Chen felt that he had walked away from the gate of hell. If Shen Yang hadn't saved him, Wu Chen knew very well that

I never want to return to Zhao again in my life.

"Were you really just a cook in the past?" Wu Chen was very interested. Shen Yang cupped his hands and smiled and said: "Back to your Majesty, I joined the army last year and have always worked in the kitchen."

Wu Chen couldn't help but laugh heartily. He had never thought that one of his cooks could be so talented in eloquence. He was really a natural debater. This time when he went back, he would definitely use him again.

Just when the military minister was thinking about how to reward Shen Yang, a soldier pointed to the river bank and shouted: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has come to pick you up with hundreds of officials."

At the river port, more than thirty people, including Zhang Er, Shao Sao, Chen Yu, Zhang Yan, and Li Zuoche, had been waiting for a long time. At this time, on the distant river, several small boats appeared in the Daqing River. Soon, the boats gradually came close to them.

When he came to the shore, everyone happily greeted him and knelt on one knee: "See you, Your Majesty."

The military minister looked a little ashamed and couldn't help but sigh: "I am impulsive and have made you worry."

"Your Majesty, please don't blame yourself. As long as your Majesty returns safely, Zhao Kingdom will still be the Zhao Kingdom of the past, and your Majesty will still be the great king of the past." Zhang Er said with a smile. At this time, Zhang Er's eyes fell on Shen Yang behind the military minister, and he couldn't help but

He smiled and said: "Shen Yang is fearless, wise and courageous. He has the courage to save the king from danger. It is really rare. The king must reward him heavily."

After hearing this, the military officials couldn't help but laugh: "I am passing on this king's order to make Shenyang the King of Anguo and reward him with a hundred yi of gold."

Shen Yang was overjoyed and immediately stepped forward and knelt down: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

At this time, Wu Chen was a little tired. He had been imprisoned in the Yan Army's camp during this period. He had really suffered a lot. Now he could finally return. He didn't want to stay in this sad place for a minute or a second. See

The important minister was staring at him, and the military minister resolutely said: "Send the order to rest and reorganize the army and return to Handan."

...

Hengshan County, also known as Changshan County. Since Li Liang was ordered to go north, there have been countless large and small battles, with more victories and fewer defeats. It is famous in Changshan County. The Qin army suffered repeated defeats and finally retreated to Quyang County. From then on, Li Liang also

Divide the troops to encircle and suppress, clean up nearby villages, and besiege Quyang.

After about half a year, Li Liang finally captured Quyang County, where he rested his troops and waited for subsequent orders.

There was an order for Li Liang to end the battle in Changshan County as soon as possible and go north to reinforce the military officials to attack the Yan Kingdom. However, Li Liang thought about it and concluded that it was not a wise move to conquer Yan. He believed that the military officials would figure this out soon.

He would also give up the plan of the feudal lord Yan, so he always stood still in Changshan County and waited for the battle report from Guangyang County.

In the past few days, battle reports had indeed arrived, but the results were beyond Li Liang's expectations.

According to reports from scouts, Wu Chen once led his army to confront the Yan army at the Daqing River, but he refused to listen to dissuasion and went to Yan camp alone to spy on the enemy. He was accidentally caught. Later, Shen Yang's eloquent words persuaded Han Guang.

After releasing the military minister, this kind of thing made Li Liang feel incredible that a majestic king of a country could actually do such a ridiculous thing.

At this time, the scouts retreated, and Li Liang paced back and forth in the house. The military official had already led his army south and returned to Handan, but this time he suddenly stopped and gave up on the clan. Next, would he consider transferring himself back to the capital?

Woolen cloth?

Although Changshan County was temporarily cleared, many county towns were still in the hands of the Qin army, and Li Liang did not want to return to the capital so early.

But I had already resisted the military minister's order once. If he issued an order again this time, I might not be able to refuse so easily.

Judging from the current situation, if you want to rebuff the military minister, there is only one way to start a war, or to continue heading north. This may be the best way to escape the military minister.

Thinking of this, Li Liang couldn't help laughing at himself. He didn't understand why he was so afraid of Wu Chen? Is it just because he was King Zhao?

But the military minister could make such a rash move, leaving the three armies alone and running to the other side of the Daqing River to spy on the enemy. How many people could do such a thing?

Just when Li Liang was thinking wildly, a follower walked in quickly, cupped his hands and said: "General, your Majesty has sent a message!"

Li Liang's heart tightened. The thing he was worried about finally happened, but since the envoy had arrived, there was no need for him to deliberately avoid it. Thinking of this, Li Liang responded calmly and walked out of the house with his personal entourage.

In the yard, a soldier wearing leather armor had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Li Liang coming out, he hurriedly greeted him, cupped his hands and said: "The king has an order, ordering you to march westward immediately after you attack Pingshan County and march towards Taiyuan.
