Everyone thought he was dying

Ji Chen couldn't bear it, but Bai Zhan couldn't: "General, what did you just say... what do you mean?"

"Literally. The person who is really fighting you is Lan Yu, the former founding marshal of Daqi."

Bai Zhan stared blankly at Ji Chen, and after a while, he recovered his voice: "How... how? General Lan, didn't it be long ago..."

"If I hadn't fought him head-on this time, and the people who besieged you were indeed Lan Yu's confidants, I'm afraid, I couldn't believe that Lan Yu, who had been given to death, was still alive. Moreover, He also took refuge in the Yi people."

"I'm afraid, as early as the beginning, Lan Yu prepared a way out for himself." Ji Chen thought of Lan Yu's tomb at the border, and shook his head: "We have all been deceived by him."

Back then, when Ji Chen returned to the capital, Lan Yu had already drank the poisoned wine, and Ji Chen only had time to meet him one last time.

Even though Lan Yu was bad in every way and wrong in every way, he was the one who had fought the world with Ye Yunze and was once as close as brother to Ye Yunze.When Lan Yu and Ye Yunze got into such a fight, Ji Chen felt very uncomfortable.

As the saying goes, when a person is about to die, his words are also good.At that time, Lan Yu, who was dying, tightly clutched Ji Chen's trouser legs, intermittently telling his regrets and unwillingness, saying that he should not support himself, take credit for his pride, forget his duty as a courtier, and at the end of his life At the critical moment, he talked a lot... Finally, he asked Ji Chen to bring his bones back to the border, where he used to guard.He said that since he was buried in the capital without a face, it would be better to be buried at the border, so that he could keep guarding the border of Daqi, and let him regain his original intention...

Lan Yu's last words touched the softest string in Ji Chen's heart.In the end, he didn't ask Ji Chen to beg for mercy for his family and relatives, and he didn't even make any excessive demands, only such a simple request was left, and Ji Chen naturally wouldn't refuse, and couldn't bear to refuse.Lan Yu's coffin was sent to the border by Ji Chen himself.

Later, because of Lan Yu's matter, Ji Chen even got angry with Ye Yunze.Ji Chen felt that although there was something wrong with Lan Yu, the two of them would not have come to this point if it hadn't been for Ye Yunze's pressing every step of the way - it was one of the few conflicts between Ji Chen and Ye Yunze.

Later, Lan Yu's old tribe, who was rushing to pay homage to Lan Yu, encountered an accident on the way and fell off the cliff, leaving no bones left.At that time, many people said that Ye Yunze did it, but Ye Yunze neither agreed nor refuted.

Ji Chen felt more and more guilty towards Lan Yu. If there was no Lan Yu, his subordinates might not have encountered such a thing.And each of these things, after careful investigation, although it was not done by Ji Chen, it was actually written by Ye Yunze, and Ji Chen and Ye Yunze are one body...

Thinking about it now, Ji Chen only feels that he was a joke at that time.

I'm afraid that Lan Yu, since then, Lan Yu has been planning, right?The reason is now, and his various reactions are all in his calculations.

The assassination of Ye Yunze, the manpower placed beside the king of the vassal state, the sudden attack of the Yi tribe... If Lan Yu was the one behind it, everything would make sense.

"He came back for revenge." If it wasn't for this, Ji Chen would never have thought of the reason for Lan Yu to attack at this moment after being dormant for a long time.

"General, we should now..." Upon hearing such news suddenly, thousands of thoughts flashed through Bai Zhan's mind, and when he recovered, a wry smile hung on his lips.

He thought that his ability was enough to stand on his own, but now it seems that it is far from enough.

Bai Zhan stared at Ji Chen in front of him, and saw that Ji Chen's brows were indifferent and his temperament was calm. This kind of demeanor was honed through various battles, big and small, during the founding of the country, and it was the result of countless life and death experiences. He is far behind.

Ji Chen is like this, and the general Lan Yu must be like this too, no wonder he was defeated so badly by Lan Yu's men, he couldn't even survive a few rounds.

"What should I do?" Ji Chen raised his eyebrows, revealing a little bit of sternness: "Now, Lan Yu is no longer a founding general, but a rebel, a traitor to my Great Qi! What to do, what to do !"

"General Lan... Lan Yu came prepared. He lured him into the wilderness because he was a late general. Now, the border cities are owned by the Yi people. I'm afraid this battle will not be easy." Lan Yu's ability is not mentioned. However, just the problem of food supply can kill an individual.

Bai Zhan felt even more ashamed when he thought that Qi Jun's current disadvantages were caused by himself.

"If it's not easy to fight, we have to fight. Since the opponent is Lan Yu, this battle is his revenge battle. Either he dies, or we die! So what if the food and grass route is cut off? They can occupy our city, we Naturally, they can also occupy theirs!"

Ji Chen's words were full of fighting spirit, without any worry at all.

"General, what do you mean..." Bai Zhan stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the royal court of the Yi clan.

Ji Chen nodded: "Not bad! A child can be taught!"

Surrounding Wei and saving Zhao has existed since ancient times, and the moves are not too old, as long as they work.

……

In Lan Yu's view, a few days is the limit that Ji Chen's army can bear.After all, the food that Ji Chen's army brought with them when they left the customs was enough to feed the army for ten days.Now, Ji Chen has saved the Bai Zhan army, and he has [-] more mouths to eat.

Therefore, Lan Yu was not in a hurry to confront his former comrade-in-arms head-on, but patiently waited for the moment when his old friend could not bear it.

In all fairness, Lan Yu is more willing to defeat Ji Chen upright on the frontal battlefield, so as to completely trample Ji Chen under his feet, but considering the various situations in reality, Lan Yu still chooses the safest method——Lan Yu wants to Those who fight back to the capital must save their strength as much as possible.Fighting to the death with Ji Chen is definitely not a good choice.

Ji Chen is the kind of person who, even if he is cornered, will drag his enemies to his death.Lan Yu didn't want to easily test his bottom line unless necessary.

But he didn't expect that in just three days, Ji Chen couldn't hold back any longer, and frantically attacked the Lan Yu army desperately, just to grab a ration.

People who have no way out are often fearless, because they know that if they go forward, they may die, but if they retreat, they will definitely die.

Lan Yu's army was shattered by the Qi army led by Ji Chen, and they were in a panic.Ji Chen was originally a person who was good at taking advantage of the favorable geographical position to fight, and set several traps during the period, which made the Lan Yu army disgraced and embarrassed.

If Lan Yu was leading the army he had in Daqi back then, perhaps he would not have been suppressed and beaten by Ji Chen, but now his subordinates are the rebellious Yi people who only listened to him superficially. It's a fantasy to want to be able to do it like an arm and a finger, and there is no comparison with Ji Chen's people.

Later, when the three Yi tribe princes who were leading the battle arrived, the situation improved.However, before the few people had discussed how to deal with Ji Chen, a blood-stained request letter from the depths of the grassland disturbed their minds.

"This group of damned Qi people! What have you done to the father and the king!!!" The impulsive third prince angrily went to lead his horse: "My clan's sons, come back with this prince! Get rid of those damn big people!" Get rid of all Qi people!"

"Wait, don't be impulsive!" Lan Yu hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "If you withdraw now, you will fall right into the arms of the people of Qi!"

The third prince glared at him angrily: "Go away, you Qi people! If you don't go back, are you going to let the Qi army invade my royal court, occupy my pasture, and enslave my people! You don't even know How important the royal court and the ranch are to us!"

Even the eldest prince, who has always treated Lan Yu with great courtesy, said: "We attacked Daqi to avenge our shame and to make our people live better. But for us, the grassland is the land after all. Our roots. I know that the general of the Qi people did this to let our people withdraw from several cities, but we have no choice, we must go back, we cannot be rootless people!"

As they said that, they didn't even say hello to Lan Yu, they took the other Yi people and galloped towards the direction of the royal court.

Lan Yu bit her lower lip hard, and couldn't help but punched hard on the ground.

In order to avenge Ye Yunze, he has been dormant for so long and planned for so long, but now, all his achievements have come to nothing.

If the army he led back then was still around, why would he be like this!It really doesn't work if you want to use others to make things happen.

Lan Yu raised her head, her eyes were burning with ice-cold flames: "Ji Chen, you won."

He knew that Ji Chen had always been good at attacking the east and attacking the west, besieging Wei and saving Zhao.In these few battles with him, these tricks have been brought into full play.

Ji Chen would launch an offensive suddenly, probably not because there was not enough food and grass, but because he simply wanted to hold them back and prevent them from paying attention to what was wrong with Wang Ting.So, when they reacted, it was a done deal.

Ji Chen looked at Lan Yu, shook his head, and slowly raised the knife in his hand: "No, if you're still here, I can't win."

At the beginning, due to their negligence, such a fatal mistake was left behind.Now, no matter what, he must correct this mistake.

If Lan Yu had kept his name incognito after escaping from birth, Ji Chen might still be able to pretend that he didn't know there was such a person.It's a pity that for his own selfishness, Lan Yu actually abandoned righteousness and turned his knife on the common people of Daqi, and Ye Yunze who was far away in the capital. This was something Ji Chen couldn't tolerate no matter what.

"You are still loyal to be Ye Yunze's running dog just like you were back then. But it seems that you are not doing well, otherwise, the city guard general I first met here would not be that brat. kid!"

Lan Yu drew out the knife and bumped into Ji Chen's blade with a "clang" sound: "I've been wondering why we have to suffer from Ye Yunze's suspicions when we are both the founding generals. You are the only one who has his trust so much. What! Is it that important whether you sleep with me or not! "

While talking, the two of them had gone through more than ten tricks.

"But I found that now, the answers to these questions are not important. There is only one thing that matters - I want Ye Yunze to die! Since I can't take Ye Yunze's dog's life now, it's the same if I take your life of!"

"Just try it if you have the ability, and see who can take whose life!" Ji Chen looked at Lan Yu contemptuously: "I used to respect you as a man, but now, you are getting more and more nasty! Dirty people, naturally see everything as dirty! You are no longer worthy of being my opponent!"

Lan Yu's eyes were bloodshot: "You are courting death!!!"

In this short period of time, Lan Yu and Ji Chen fought together, and the people under them also fought together...

……

In the palace, Empress Dowager Xu woke up from her sleep, touched the sweat from her forehead: "Recently, is there any news about the battle situation at the border?"

"Don't worry, ma'am, Duke Xu's mansion is always watching the border. As soon as there is news, we will let you know. I heard that not long ago, the Yi people withdrew their troops."

Empress Dowager Xu's subordinates paused, and then said nonchalantly: "That's good. This time, Prince Ji has made another great contribution." She emphasized the word "Prince".

Now, Ji Chen is truly unsealable. If he returns safely, the emperor will probably be the first to suffer!Empress Dowager Xu smiled coldly, she was solving hidden dangers for her good son!

The confidant on the side observed the words and expressions, and leaned forward and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, now, Your Majesty will definitely get what she wants."
