Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

"come in."

The door was opened, and Zhong Cheng appeared in front of Wei Wuji.

Compared with before, Zhong Cheng looked darker and thinner.

But the eyes of the young General Wei also became sharper, looking like a long-sharpened sword, full of murderous aura, and even standing there gave people a sting the sensation of the eyes.

Wei Wuji pointed to the seat in front of him: "Sit down."

The murderous aura on Zhong Cheng's body quickly subsided.

It's also very interesting to say that this young Wei Guowei has a serious appearance when facing everyone else, but he is extremely respectful in front of Wei Wuji.

A kind of respect from the heart.

Zhong Cheng sat down, and said to Wei Wuji worriedly: "Mr. Xinling, something is wrong!"

Wei Wuji glanced at Zhong Cheng and said, "What's wrong?"

Zhong Chengdao: "The Zhao army has not attacked the city for three whole days!"

Wei Wuji's cheeks moved slightly, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, revealing a very shallow smile: "Isn't this a good thing?"

Zhong Cheng shook his head and said, "This is definitely not a good thing. I have a hunch that the Zhao people must be plotting something!"

Wei Wuji thought for a while, then shook his head slowly, and said, "It's not necessarily a conspiracy, maybe the king's peace negotiation has achieved results."

"Negotiate peace?" Zhong Cheng's eyes widened.

"Negotiate peace." Wei Wuji nodded, and said, "Now that we have been defeated, the only way to negotiate peace is the only thing before the King."

Zhong Cheng couldn't help feeling a little depressed when he heard the words, and after a while he said bitterly: "If it weren't for these damn Qi people, we wouldn't be where we are today!"

Zhong Cheng's dissatisfaction with the Qi people is justified.

In the decisive battle that day, Wei Wuji had actually already prepared, and sent soldiers and horses to guard the flanks.

If it was according to Wei Wuji's arrangement, then even if they were temporarily frustrated on the battlefield, the Qi Wei coalition army should be able to withdraw to Gaotang City and continue to stand firm, waiting for a turnaround.

However, the defeat of the Qi army greatly affected the Wei army, causing the originally orderly retreat of the Wei army to be smashed by the defeated remnants of Qi.

As a result, in just a short time, the whole battle situation turned into a chaotic retreat by the people of Wei and Qi, and finally got out of hand.

After finally retreating to Gaotang City, Zhong Cheng had just been ordered to collect a wave of remnants and defeated generals, and when he was about to regroup, Zhao Guo's army followed up like tarsus maggots.

So Zhong Cheng was ordered in the face of danger, and led thousands of newly assembled soldiers under his command to defend the eastern city wall where Zhao Jun's offensive was most violent.

The people of Zhao State had obviously been prepared for a long time. This can be seen from the fact that they carried ladders and other siege vehicles in the first wave of their charge, and that heavy siege vehicles such as catapults appeared in the third wave of offensive.

At the most urgent moment, at least a hundred Zhao soldiers had rushed up to the east wall of Gaotang City where Zhong Cheng was located, and were about to gain a firm foothold.

It was at this time that Zhong Cheng took the lead in fighting bloody battles, risking countless boulders raging wildly on the top of the city, and led the surrounding Wei soldiers to kill all the Zhao soldiers who attacked the top of the city. This wave of offensive, which was so fierce that it almost broke through the top of the city, was repulsed back.

Then Zhong Cheng didn't even have time to take a breather when he received a new news that the north city wall of Gaotang guarded by Qi people had been occupied by Zhao Jun, and a large number of Zhao Jun were entering Gaotang through the north gate.

So Zhong Cheng had no choice but to continue to lead the little troops under his command to guard Wei Wuji and flee from the city until he fled to Dong'e.

In Zhong Cheng's mind, if it wasn't for the behavior of the Qi people's pig teammates twice in a row, then the outcome of the Gaotang battle should still be close to five or five.

What makes Zhong Cheng even more uncomfortable is that because the soldiers of the Wei army have always fought bravely and never retreated, so when they died, the soldiers of the Wei State died more.

But the Qi people ran faster, and immediately turned around and ran away when they saw the situation was not good. Therefore, when everyone fled to Dong'e City in a panic and reunited, after counting the number of people, it was found that the Qi army still accounted for more than half of them.

Zhong Cheng hated the people of Qi to death.

For Zhong Cheng's full of resentment, Wei Wuji could only shake his head.

Wei Wuji didn't intend to get entangled in this place, but asked, "Is there any news from General Kuang Liang?"

It is precisely because there are more Qi troops in Dong'e City now, and Dong'e was originally a part of Qi State, so now it is not Wei Wuji who occupies the command and dominance in Dong'e City, but Qi State. The main general Kuang Liang.

Zhong Cheng snorted and said, "That Kuang Liang is just a coward. Now that the Zhao army is not attacking the city, he must not know where to celebrate. How can he pay attention to the military situation?" ?”

Wei Wuji shook his head and said: "Zhong Cheng, I can understand the dissatisfaction in your heart, but I hope you know that we and General Kuangliang are allies now, and we should support each other in such difficult times, and we should not be like this arranged by him."

Zhong Cheng was very convinced of Wei Wuji, so after hearing Wei Wuji's words, although he still had resentment in his heart, he still kept his mouth shut.

At this moment, a burst of dense footsteps faintly came from outside.

Wei Wuji and Zhong Cheng heard the sound of footsteps, Wei Wuji frowned slightly, and said to Zhong Cheng, "Is this the soldier you transferred?"

Zhong Cheng's face changed slightly, he stood up and said, "Mr. Xinling, please sit down, I'll go out and have a look."

The dense footsteps became more obvious, mixed with the sound of the courtyard door opening, it sounded like many people had entered the courtyard.

Zhong Cheng took a deep breath, pulled out the long sword in his hand, opened the door and walked out.

"Wait" Wei Wuji wanted to call Zhong Cheng, but it was too late, Zhong Cheng's figure had already disappeared from his eyes.

An ominous premonition slowly appeared in Wei Wuji's heart.

What exactly happened?

Wei Wuji sat there quietly, waiting for Zhong Cheng's call or reply.

But the strange thing is that after a long while, Zhong Cheng didn't send any message back.

Wei Wuji took a deep breath and stood up.

At this moment, a burst of footsteps sounded again.

Wei Wuji knew immediately that someone was walking towards this room.

Wei Wuji frowned.

This is not Zhong Cheng's footsteps.

When the footsteps came to the door, there was a sudden and deliberate pause.

Wei Wuji raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "The visitor is a guest, since you are here, why don't you go inside for a while?"

As soon as Wei Wuji finished speaking, a figure stepped into the room.

Then came the man's voice.

"Mr. Xinling, long time no see."

After seeing the person coming, Wei Wuji's body shook, and his eyes widened in surprise.
