I’m The King

"Master Yizheng, today I went to visit Master History in Chu Chu, but he still told me that Huang Shoufu was too busy, and the negotiation with Yizheng might have to be delayed for two days!" This time, Huo Xiaolin, the minister of rites who followed Wu Qi, hummed angrily. He sat down and slapped the table hummingly. "They used such a trick to delay time. If you drag it on, how many people will be left in the New First Army?"

Wu Qi looked at him indifferently, "So angry? Come on, have a cup of tea to go to the fire, and be quiet." Wu Qi pushed a cup of tea in front of Huo Xiaolin.

"Discussing politics, why are you so indifferent, every day you drag, the new army will die a lot!" Huo Xiaolin said anxiously.

"Or, the more eager you behave, the more you will delay your convenience until we can't bear it anymore." Wu Qi said, "Xiao Lin, I advised you not to be anxious, don't you believe it, have you hit a wall now?"

Huo Xiaolin was frustrated at once, picked up the cup, and drank it out with a sigh, "But I'm anxious!"

"I'm anxious, and I can't show it in face." Wu Qi smiled: "Wang Shang had already estimated this situation when he came, so Jicheng will have some measures to deal with it. Before Jicheng's reaction arrives here, Let's not move rashly."

"When the news from Jicheng arrives here, the day lily will be cold." Huo Xiaolin knocked on the table, "Yizheng, you have also seen the tragedy of the New First Army."

"That's why I forced Qu Wan to provide them with food and medicine."

"A thousand catties of rice a day, a team of tens of thousands, what can it do?"

"You can hang your life!" Wu Qi let out a sigh, "Add some wild vegetables, bark, the New First Army also has a lot of mules and horses, it is not a problem to support for a period of time, now it is no longer fighting, and the consumption is correspondingly less. Many. Besides, under the impetus of the Supervisory Yuan, the transmission of news will be very fast."

"In discussing politics, what measures did the king take?" Huo Xiaolin asked curiously.

Wu Qi smiled, "The Youth Guard Corps has begun to mobilize. If I guess right, the vanguard of the Guard Corps has already begun."

"Fight?" Huo Xiaolin was taken aback, "Isn't it settled through negotiation?"

Wu Qi laughed: "Xiao Lin, you are the minister of the Ministry of Rites. Diplomacy is your business. Mr. Xun is getting older, and he puts his mind on the issue of universal education. This is diplomacy. There will be more and more affairs relying on you. You have to remember that weak countries have no diplomacy. Diplomacy must be built on a strong military basis. Chu people want to delay, so as to increase the price. It must be tit-for-tat. If you don't want to talk, then start a fight. If we pay the price of the new army, then the Chu people must pay ten times the price to repay it."

Huo Xiaolin nodded, "Talking about politics, what are we going to do next?"

Wu Qi picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and smiled: "The scenery of the south of the Yangtze River is usually a rare opportunity to appreciate it. Since we are here, we can't miss it. I heard that there is a place in Yingcheng that is famous in the world. What is it called? Garden, let's go and enjoy it tomorrow."

"This is really bitter fun! If the domestic parliamentarians know that we are here to negotiate, but they are drinking flowers and wine in the garden, I am afraid it will be noisy!" Huo Xiaolin smiled bitterly.

"Let them quarrel, it really can turn the sky up, as long as we can handle the errands, we will be the hero when we go back." Wu Qi said. "Okay, today we will visit the rich and powerful in Yingcheng again and give gifts. Tomorrow, we will go to the garden and drink flower wine."

Huang Xie has been very busy these days. The Qin Chu alliance has been formally established after this Pengcheng Battle and the Maowei incident. Both countries fully realize that it is difficult to resist the forces of Han and unite by relying on the power of one country alone. It is an inevitable choice. Of course, there are countless tasks to be done. Apart from this, Huang Xie must also pay attention to the dynamite workshop that will be built in Suizhou. This is to prevent the Han or Qin people from being beautiful. If they both had this stuff, but Chu people were left behind, Huang Xie could think of the ending with his butt. Thirdly, hundreds of thousands of troops surrounded the new army in Pengcheng. The daily food, drink, and chewing of these troops is not a small amount, and the deployment of the logistics army is also something he has to take care of.

King Chu Huai did nothing as usual. He only asked about the result. The lieutenant's heavy energy was placed on the whole army. The Chu army has been at ease for a long time, and it is indeed unable to withstand the test of the Great War. This time the battle of Suizhou, Although the high-level leaders of the two sides are tacitly aware, the generals and soldiers underneath are completely ignorant. This is also to deceive the Han people. Once the fake fight, it is easy for people to see the flaws. This battle is known as the elite border of Chu. The troops fought against the Qin people, and they were defeated across the board in just a few days. Huang Xie and Qu Zhong couldn't help but shocked. They thought it would be a battle that lasted a long time, but they didn't expect Zhou Yu to be in a short period of time. He defeated his army within a few days.

Qu Zhong devoted almost all of his energy to the training of the army, and Huang Xie naturally took care of the rest.

He raised his head from the mountain of case slips, stretched out his hand to rub his temple, patted his face, and made himself appear more sober.

"Shoufu, General Zhao Shucheng begged to see him. I have been waiting outside for half an hour." The waiter beside him whispered.

"General Zhao is here, why don't you tell me?" Huang Xie snorted coldly, "Hurry up and invite General Zhao in."

"Yes!"

The door opened, Zhao Shucheng stepped in, and Huang Xie stood up after the case, "General Zhao, I really neglect it, it's all the people under the ignorance."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said: "The first assistant is too polite. The first assistant manages everything. Shu Cheng waits for a while, but there is nothing. Coming today, there are mainly a few things that are a bit puzzled, so I came to the first assistant to discuss."

"Oh? Let General Zhao come in person, I'm afraid it's not a trivial matter." Huang Xie raised his brows. "General Zhao, please sit down, come here, and have tea!"

"Shoufu, it's been three days since Wu arrived in Yingcheng. His deputy, Huo Xiaolin, the minister of ceremonies, was impatient. He ran to Neishi several times a day and couldn't wait to negotiate with us, but Wu Qi was an old god. Yes, I don’t look anxious, I’m afraid it’s a bit tricky here."

"What can be tricky?" Huang Xie smiled: "Wu Qi is an old fox who has been in power in Wei for many years. He naturally knows the truth that haste is not good. He wants us to think that he does not fight at all, and Han does not fight at all. But his deputy revealed his intentions! Don't pay attention to him, let him dry for two more days."

"Shoufu, I thought so at the beginning, but today I received an urgent report, and I felt a little nervous, so I ran this time." A look of anxiety flashed across Zhao Shucheng's face.

"whats the matter?"

"The Han State is undergoing a large-scale mobilization. The Youth Guard Corps has assembled. Its striker has left Jicheng and is advancing in the direction of Pengcheng. An army, a cavalry unit of up to 20,000 people, if they march with all their strength, it will take less than ten days to reach Pengcheng." Zhao Shucheng said.

"What are you talking about?" Huang Xie stood up all of a sudden, "The young guard moved?"

"Yes, the entire Youth Guard Corps has four corps. That is a large army of more than 100,000 people. If you go south with all your strength, then there will be a battle between Han and Chu that is related to the fortune of the country. I am now worried about Wu Qi and Huo Xiaolin. When people team up, they are just to confuse us. We want to cool them off and delay the time, and know if they are thinking the same way?"

"They don't want a new army anymore, that's an army of tens of thousands of people!" Huang Xie said in anger.

"Master Shoufu, do you think Gao Yuan will care about this tens of thousands of troops?" Zhao Shucheng took a deep breath, "Even if we order an immediate attack, with the new army's combat power, we can still fight us. For several days, it is not easy for our army in Pengcheng to leave the battlefield quickly. Once it is stuck by the enemy, it will be bad. More importantly, the country is not ready to fight a nationwide war! You have also seen a battle of Suizhou. Our so-called elite border guards had little room to fight back under Zhou Yu's attack. Unlike the Han and Qin forces, we have been at ease for too long."

Huang Xie stood up a little distracted, and walked around the room. Yes, Zhao Shucheng made sense. Will Gao Yuan care about the tens of thousands of people in the New First Army? It is himself, in Suizhou, sacrificed Didn't the soldiers there blink their eyes? In order to achieve greater strategic goals, the soldiers sacrificed were just numbers on the account book.

"Master Shoufu, the Young Guard Corps is the most capable army of the Han nation. It has two cavalry corps and a cavalry force of up to 40,000 people! We can't care about it."

"Does Qin know the news?"

"Zhong Li has been away for two days. I now wonder if they got some wind, so they can run faster than the rabbit. Shoufu, if we fight, can we really count on the Qin people to help us? They only I'm afraid I will be smiling while watching it!" Zhao Shucheng said.

Huang Xie walked up and down the house distractedly. "What did Taiwei Qu say?"

"Qu Taiwei said that now our * team is not ready to fight a big battle, not only psychologically, but also militaryly. This is incomparable with Han. We need at least a year to come. Make preparations." Zhao Shucheng said.

"One year!" Huang Xie took a deep breath. The young emperor of Han is extremely difficult to choose. Since he started his army, he has been invincible and invincible. Within ten years, he has become the king of a country. Such a person must be extremely arrogant. This time Pengcheng's defeat is his first major defeat in the true sense. It cannot be ruled out that this person initiated a campaign for the sake of face. A battle to restore his lost title of undefeated God of War.

Thinking of this, he turned around and said to the waiter behind him: "Tell Neishi immediately and arrange for me to meet Wu Qi." (To be continued)
