Compared with the bustling Jicheng, the small town of Quwo Wei State is a world of difference. The dilapidated city walls, narrow streets, stretches of thatched huts and poor people, even the poor of Jicheng, It is also better than the people here, and now it is the residence of King Yan Jiling and his ministers Zhou Yu, Tan Feng and others
Qi Guotian Dan Po Yan, although Yan Guo still has a large area under the control of Gao Yuan, the nominal Zhengdong General, but Yan Ji is homeless. Under Tan Feng's suggestion, Ji Ling asked the King of Wei for help. As soon as they landed, the king of Wei generously promised to assign Quwo to Jiling, the king of Yan, to recuperate. Of course, there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. [].[]It is almost on the attack line of the Qin army led by Lu Chao. Although it is not the front of the attack, the position is still very important
I give you Quwo, but you have to guard the frontier for me, this is the exchange between the two sides
All the way to gather scattered troops and defeated generals. By the time Quwo was reached, Tan Feng and Zhou Yu had gathered thousands of soldiers. Counting the troops that broke out with them, they finally had tens of thousands People and horses, the king of Wei generously replenished them with food, grass and armaments, but they also knew very well that this was probably the first and last time, because the envoy of the king of Wei made it very clear that Quwo would be Give Yanling a place to recuperate, that is to say, they will rely on Quwo to support their troops in the future
"Quwo has a radius of a hundred miles, and there are 5,832 households in total." With the household registration transferred from the county seat, Tan Feng reported to Ji Ling
"With a radius of a hundred miles, it's not considered a small county. Why are there only more than 5,000 households?" Ji Ling asked in amazement
"Quwo is often attacked by the Qin army. There are many refugees. The people's livelihood is dying and the poverty is extreme." Tan Feng sighed, "Your Majesty, there are ten thousand soldiers who want to feed here. Horse, I'm afraid it's impossible"
"More than 10,000, Kong De's messenger arrived today, Kong De brought 10,000 soldiers and horses, and they will arrive in about ten days." Zhou Yu emphasized on the side
"Why are there only 10,000 soldiers?" Tan Feng raised his head in surprise, "There should be at least 20,000 soldiers under Kong De's command."
Zhou Yu smiled wryly: "I also asked the courier the same way. The courier told me that in order to escape from the entanglement of Ye Zhen's army, their major general Kong Fang led 5,000 people to cover the retreat of the army. I didn't want to leave my hometown and come to Wei, and I became a deserter on the way. Some wounded soldiers couldn't travel far, so they were paid travel expenses and dismissed."
Tan Feng's face turned ugly, "I'm afraid that Kong Fang is not the rear, but he brought the five thousand people with Ye Zhen, right? If my prediction is correct, the five thousand people must be the most elite under Kong De's command." Troops"
Ji Ling raised his head at this time, waved his hands and said, "Forget it, for nothing, Kongde can come. He can bring ten thousand people with him, and he is considered very loyal. Don't be too harsh. If you use this Don’t blame him for this matter. Wouldn’t it make him chill? Now that we are in this situation, it is understandable for him to find one for his son. Tan Qing, after General Kong comes, there is no need to mention this matter again. "
"The king is holy!" Zhou Yu bowed and said, "It is already thankful that Kong De is willing to come, and he must not be chilled."
"Your Majesty, don't worry, this matter is naturally spared by the ministers, but I feel a little uneasy. Kong De asked his son to hold his thigh, but this thigh is not necessarily reliable. Tian Dan's tens of thousands of troops are attacking western Liaoning. , and Gao Yuan’s army in Donghu has no time to come back, once Liaoxi falls, the accumulated rocks will not be protected, and Ye Zhen’s troops will be divided into Hejian and Yuyang, how can they hold it?"
"Rebellious ministers and thieves, everyone will be punished!" Ji Ling said angrily, "If Gao Yuan hadn't caused rebellion, why would this king be in today's predicament? Now I would like that Tian Dan to go to Liaoxi, defeat Gao Yuan, and finally Fortunately, taking his head can relieve the hatred in my heart"
"The king is relieved. Gao Yuan's main force is far away in Donghu and Lin. Tian Dan's tens of thousands of troops attack Liaoxi. , Tian Dan recharged his energy, while Gao Yuan's soldiers were exhausted. The result of this battle, Gao Yuan's heart of disobedience is obvious, and now let the two of them bite dogs, it is best to fight and lose. That's good" Tan Fengdao
Zhou Yu raised his eyes, glanced at Tan Feng, opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but finally lowered his head
"I don't know if Chunyuyan has arrived in Chu country now?" Ji Ling looked at the two of them, "I don't know if he can convince King Huai of Chu to help me?"
"Your Majesty is not ignorant of Chunyuyan's sharp mouth. If he goes here, he will definitely live up to his Majesty's expectations. King Chu Huai is your father-in-law, how could he just sit idly by? Even for the sake of the princess. Now, King Huai of Chu will also help the king." Tan Feng smiled and said: "As long as King Huai of Chu and Chen Bing attack the border of Qi and Chu, Tian Dan will inevitably be forced to the negotiating table. It must have damaged our vitality. At that time, perhaps we only need to pay a certain price, and the king will be able to return to Jicheng."
"A certain price? I'm afraid that the price will be expensive at that time, why would Tian Dan not open his mouth like a lion?" Ji Ling said sadly: "I am afraid that the king's swallow will be cut off by then." Countless Lands"
"Your Majesty, even so, it is better than we are nesting in Quwo now! Although we will pay the price at that time, as long as we work hard, there will always be a comeback. Life has ups and downs, which is normal. Back then Didn’t the Great Qin Dynasty often get beaten by the Xiongnu to pay for peace? But look at the Huns now, where are the Xiongnu? Even the lord of their royal family was beheaded by Yingying! But it is the foundation of the eternal world!" Tan Feng spoke uprightly, with a sonorous and forceful tone
"I hope so!" Ji Ling was also aroused by Tan Feng's words
Zhou Yu on the side suddenly said: "What if, I mean, if Gao Yuan wins this battle? At that time, what should we do?"
Yes, what if Gao Yuan wins?
It's not that the other two haven't thought about this problem, but they are unwilling to think deeply about the result of this. If Tian Dan wins, they still have to go through the mediation of Chu State, and then cede land and pay compensation to return to Yan State, but if Gao Yuan wins, do they still have a chance to go back?
"Taiwei Zhou, do you think Gao Yuan has a chance of winning in the current situation? If you are Gao Yuan and you command this battle, do you think you have a chance of winning?" Tan Feng asked back
Zhou Yu was silent for a while, "Not bad. I can't think of any chance to turn defeat into victory."
Tan Feng understood what he meant. What Zhou Yu meant was that he couldn't figure it out, but that didn't mean Gao Yuan couldn't figure it out. After all, Gao Yuan had created too many miracles in the past ten years. Feng pretended not to know, but Ji Ling didn't come.
"Taiwei, even you can't think of any chance for Gao Yuan to win. Then why are we so many?"
Stepping out of Ji Ling's humble residence, Zhou Yu and Tan Feng walked slowly on the narrow street. The sun shone in front of them, dragging their shadows behind them extremely long . It looks extremely bleak
"Tan Feng, what should we do if Gao Yuan wins?" Zhou Yu asked again
"It's impossible for him to win," Tan Feng said categorically
Zhou Yu looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, Gao Yuan didn't have a chance to win. It's just that if Gao Yuan wins, they will never have any chance, and they will inevitably fall into Quwo from now on. Become a knife in the hands of King Wei against the Qin people
"The population of Quwo is so small that we can't support our army at all. This is not counting the 10,000 soldiers that Kongde will arrive. Have you thought about this problem?" Zhou Yu turned his head and asked
"Of course I thought about it." Tan Feng nodded, "We have too many soldiers compared to the difficulties we are facing now, let's cut our troops! Eliminate the weak and save the strong, select the best from the best, and those who have been cut down , resettlement on the spot, Quwo has fewer people, and there are fewer benefits. Let the deserted land be distributed to these intercepted soldiers. It not only reduces our burden, but also finds a way out for these people. By next year, We have to collect taxes from them to get through this year, and tomorrow, everything will be fine.”
"So how much are you going to cut?"
"Half!"
“Where is Kong De?”
"Including Kongde, after Kongde arrived, we had a total of more than 20,000 people, and we cut half of them, leaving only 10,000 people, and then restarted."
"This is depriving Kongde of his military power in a disguised form, will he agree?"
"If you don't agree, does he have the ability to get enough money and food to feed his army?" Tan Feng sneered, "If he doesn't come, we will naturally have nothing to do with him, but since he has come, what should we do? Is it up to him?"
"Kong De is still loyal to Dayan, you can't use violent means to deal with him, otherwise it will arouse dissatisfaction among his subordinates and cause a mutiny, then it will be out of control!" Zhou Yu warned Tan Feng.
"Brother Zhou, don't worry, I have my own measure. Since Kong De is still loyal to Dayan, it will be very easy. There is a saying that a gentleman can be bullied." Tan Feng laughed.
Zhou Yu shook his head again, "Although we have concealed the queen's humiliation in Jicheng from the king for a while, it is impossible to keep the secret from the king, and it is impossible to hide it from the king of Chu. At the same time, if there is no time to bring the concubine, will King Huai of Chu be annoyed because the king refuses to borrow troops?"
Tan Feng snorted, "Although our king has no face in this matter, does King Huai of Chu have face? The king is already shameless at this point, but King Huai of Chu can be shameless." It is shameful, Brother Zhou, I have already sent people to the state of Chu to spread the word about it. Even if the king of Chu is shameless, there will always be some shameless among the people of Chu. When troubles arise, King Huai of Chu will have to send troops .Tian Dan got too carried away this time."
Hearing Tan Feng's evaluation of his group, Zhou Yu couldn't help but blushed, but he had nothing to say, yes, at this point, what face is there to talk about?
