Chapter 51 Qin Chu Messengers Gather in Wei
As the soldiers' voices fell, Xiang Liang's face suddenly changed. I thought that when would the Wei State be unable to send troops, but he chose to send troops to Chen Liu at this moment, which was obviously a ill-intentioned plan.
"Is the news accurate?" Fan Zeng Cheng was serious and confirmed again.
"Mr. Qibing, it's true. Wei Bao led more than 10,000 soldiers toward Chenliu, so he came to report." The soldiers said seriously.
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other. Xiang Liang immediately clapped his hands and said, "The reckless man of Wei State has established his country with courage! Now everyone in the tyrannical Qin Dynasty has been punished. What does it mean?"
"Xiang Ji, please lead your troops to capture Chenliu. We will send troops to Daliang. How can such ordinary men be the country? They cannot be kept, which will harm the country and the people!"
Xiang Yu received his order and wanted to send troops, but was stopped by Fan Zeng. "Don't send troops, the Prime Minister please take back Cheng's life!"
"Sir, my uncle has an order, and even more so, the Wei State is rude, so you should defeat him with your troops, so why should you say more?" Xiang Yu said seriously.
Fan Zeng waved his hand and said, "No, now we are raising troops to Dingtao. Wei is panicked. Maybe he thinks that Chu wants to attack his country, so he sends troops to seize it. This is the normal way for people to do so."
"If you send troops to fight with Wei, your troops will be consumed, and Qin is in Xingyang and will reap the benefits of the fisherman. Tens of thousands of soldiers should not be underestimated. Please ask the Prime Minister and General to think twice. Don't send out unrighteous soldiers with a moment of anger."
After hearing this, Xiang Liang felt it was reasonable, so he signaled Xiang Ji to return to his seat and said kindly: "It's someone who is reckless, I wonder what the sir thinks?"
"The best strategy is to send envoys to Wei State to understand the pros and cons and to ask them to withdraw their troops." Fan Zeng said calmly.
Dingtao is currently reorganizing, and it will take some time. If Fan Zeng said, there is some truth to avoid hasty sending troops and losing both sides. When Qin is strong and Chu is weak, it will be difficult to attack Hangu Pass in one fell swoop.
"What the sir said is very good. Someone in the tent is willing to go to the State of Wei. After the matter is completed, there will be a heavy reward!" Xiang Liang said looking around.
When the generals heard that they were sent to Wei State, no one said anything. After all, they were all martial artists, and their skills in their mouths were still a bit weak, but Ji Bu was eager to try it.
When he was on a mission to Pengcheng, he was blocked by Luan Bu repeatedly and repeatedly, and he felt angry. Some time ago, he heard that Luan Bu surrendered to Wei State. This time he went to see what Luan Bu had to say, but he didn't know that Luan Bu had surrendered to Qin.
Xiang Liang glanced at everyone, and his eyes also fell on Ji Bu. "Ji Bu, you are the most clever in the camp. Are you ill when you go to the State of Wei?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Bu immediately stood up and saluted and said, "I am willing to lobby for Wei!"
"I'm very happy. Let Xiang Zhuang go with you and protect you well. I will definitely ask the State of Wei for an explanation. If it fails, quickly return to Dingtao. We will send troops to fight him." Xiang Liang said with relief.
At this time, Wei Bao had already led his troops to Chenliu, and tens of thousands of troops were left to defend the city. Wei Ju will temporarily handle all matters in the army to avoid any mistakes.
Ji Bu and Xiang Zhuang arrived at Wei in three days and first visited the Wei prime minister Zhou City. After meeting and chatting, the atmosphere seemed quite awkward. After all, Wei had already had a good relationship with Qin, and Chu did not know about it.
Seeing that Zhou Shi's face looked a little strange, Ji Bu asked curiously: "It's really hard for the Prime Minister to serve the people, but he doesn't have to be so sad. I wonder where Luan Bu is?"
"I was bored because of many incidents. As for Luan Bu, I had abandoned Wei and joined Qin." Zhou Shi said reluctantly.
"I didn't expect that Luan Bu called himself a chivalrous man and did such repetitive things. It's really shameful!" Ji Bu had no choice but to mock him in front of others before he saw Luan Bu.
Zhou Shi was a little stunned and coughed slightly, "These are all things in the past, and it is useless to mention them. I wonder what the two of you came here? Can you tell me that as the prime minister, there is still something else to do?"
Xiang Zhuang took a sip of warm tea and frowned slightly, "Since that's the case, I'll just say that Wei State has nothing to do in Daliang, why did he suddenly send troops to Chen Liu? What's the intention?"
Zhou Shi now understood. It turned out that the Chu envoy came for this matter, so he retorted: "Chu envoy was so loud. Chenliu is the place of Wei. Do you need to inform your army when the Wei army is sent to send troops?"
Xiang Zhuang stood up and wanted to scold him, but fortunately he was stopped by Ji Bu, "Secretary Wei, some things are harmful but not profitable, why do you do it?"
"Now Wei sent troops to Chenliu to resist Chu, what are the benefits of your country? Moreover, Qin State is sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, forgive me for saying frankly, and it is what fools do." Ji Bu said kindly.
Zhou Shi pondered for a moment before whispering: "What you said is extremely one-sided. Although today is divided, there are few wars and all countries are at peace. Isn't it beautiful? Now Chu attacks Qin and wants to unify it. Is it possible that Qin destroys Wei?"
"Besides, it is unrighteous to kill the county magistrate and raise an army in Chu State. Could it be that the place wants to see thousands of miles away?"
As Wei Xiang's voice fell, the atmosphere in the living room was quite quiet. It was like poking the backbone of Chu. Xiang Zhuang was beside him, and without saying a word, he threw his sleeves out.
Zhou Shi ignored him, but Ji Bu laughed apologetically and said, "Wei is very quick-witted, but Wei sent troops to Chenliu, which is really not very effective. Please think twice."
"I think it's still early. The envoy will go back to the museum to rest first. Everything will be discussed in the court tomorrow." After Zhou Shi said that, he ordered someone to see the guests off.
Ji Bu had no choice but to say goodbye. He wanted to send troops to attack Qin directly, which was indeed a little rash, but this was also the purpose of Chu's uprising. Only by destroying Qin and gaining the name of supporting the world can he be qualified to compete for the Central Plains.
In fact, it is nothing to directly attack Han and Wei, just to be afraid of being criticized. After all, everyone is joining the righteous army, and they serve the people, and we are also serving the people. If Chu attacks Wei, it would be unreasonable.
Just as Ji Bu was thinking about it, Xiang Zhuang walked in from outside with some anger. Ji Bu frowned and asked, "What? Wei Xiang's angry words have not subsided yet?"
"Hmph, Wei Xiang naturally didn't take those words seriously. Unexpectedly, this old guy was carrying us to meet Qin envoys in the mansion. It was really outrageous!" Xiang Zhuang said angrily.
Ji Bu was a little confused, "Envoy Qin?"
"That's right, when someone passed by the Wei Prime Minister's Mansion, he saw a carriage with Qin envoys on it. If the Qin envoy had not asked for a visit, how could there be a scepter!"
"Is this impossible?" Ji Bu still puzzled.
"If you don't believe it, you will find out tomorrow in the court!" Xiang Zhuang said, pointing to the location of the Wei Palace.
Ji Bu sighed, but he didn't expect that Wei Xiang would treat him differently. Let's see how he clarified tomorrow. He didn't expect that he would be close to the tyrant Qin and attack Wei in this way, so he would no longer lead to Wuming!
"Okay, General, let's go and rest first. Wei State is clearly destroying itself." Ji Bu said, clenching his fist.
As for the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was Chen Ping, a former friend of the past, so Zhou Shi seemed particularly enthusiastic. He hurriedly sent off the Chu envoy and held a banquet to receive Chen Ping.
