Chapter 243: Leling undercurrents

Leling City, Qi army camp, Qi army commander Han Qingzheng summoned all the generals to discuss the matter. The city of Geguo City was lost and tens of thousands of elite troops were lost. Even Han Qing's confidant Huangfu Rong died in the battlefield. This loss was too great. The loss of Geguo and the loss of troops caused the Majiahe defense line that Han Qing had worked hard to collapse. In order to rebuild the defense line, Han Qing had to withdraw 30,000 people from the troops stationed in Banxian to garrison Pingyuan City.

In the tent of the Qi army, generals gathered, including generals Jia Biao and Wu Lie, and many other generals who did not appear in the Central Plains. Wang Pi, Liu Ying and Han Gu, the surrendered generals of the two Chus, Longchuan, Long Ao, Xiang Wei, Liu Gao, Song Yu, Cao Jian, Zang Ci, Zhang Di, and military advisors Kuai Li, Zhuang Buxi and Chen Ding, in terms of lineup, they are not inferior to Zhao, but people are different. Han Qing has always distrusts the surrendered generals of Song Chu, which makes it impossible to have a general.

"I believe you know that the Kingdom of Ge was lost, Huangfu Rong died in battle, and Zhao Xin gave us another warning." Han Qing said expressionlessly in the main position.

Everyone in the tent was different. Jia Biao, Wu Lie and other generals of Qi were sad and angry. However, the two surrendered generals of Chu, led by Longchuan and Zhang Di, looked at each other and didn't know what they were thinking.

"General, don't worry. Although the city of Geguo was lost, our army was not defeated. In the battle of Geguo, the Zhao army could not make any mistakes. This battle was still undecided." Kuai Li went out to comfort Han Qing and said.

But when Longchuan heard it below, he laughed secretly in his heart. Although the Zhao army lost tens of thousands of people, it was not unacceptable to the Zhao army with an army of 800,000. However, the Qi army lost more than 40,000 people and killed a general. In short, Qi State suffered a loss in this battle. Thinking of this, Longchuan glanced at his younger brother Long Ao. Long Ao felt Long Chuan's gaze, looked at him, and nodded to each other.

Zhang Di, who was sitting next to Longchuan, was also thinking. He had contacted the people of the Zhao army, and Zhao Xin had agreed that as long as he could fight back, he would help him rebuild the Chu State. Now it seems that the time has come. Huangfu Rong died in battle, and Han Qing had few generals in his hands. Once the war broke out, Han Qing, who lacked generals, had to use the two generals. In this way, his chance came. However, Zhang Di knew very well that Zhao State was not trustworthy, so he had a plan in his mind.

This time the discussion cannot solve the existing problems. After the discussion, Long Ao came to Longchuan's tent. As soon as Long Ao came in, Long Chuan looked around and found that no one eavesdropped. After whispering to Long Ao: "Second brother, you can find time these days to contact Zhao Jun's people."

"Brother, have you decided?" Long Ao was overjoyed when he heard this. His elder brother had figured it out.

Longchuan nodded and said, "Now the Qi army has shown its defeated elephant. If we don't decide now, we will have no chance when Zhao Xin defeats Han Qing."

Although General Zhao Qi is still in a stalemate, and the defeat of Qi's army in the battle of Ge Guocheng did not affect the overall situation, from this battle, Longchuan can see that Qi's fatigue and powerlessness were exhausted. Qi's rulers and ministers excluded surrendered generals, while the generals of his country were repeatedly defeated. Although there has not been a clear sign of defeat yet, Longchuan was the top commander who once commanded thousands of troops, so how could he not see it? That's why he decided to surrender to Zhao and fight for wealth.

"Okay, since my elder brother has made a decision, I'll contact Zhao Jun's people." After that, Long Ao was about to turn around and leave, but at this time he was pulled by Long Chuan.

Longchuan grabbed Long Ao and asked, "Second brother, how many people are willing to follow us in the camp?" Compared to Long Ao's recklessness, Longchuan seemed much more steady. I know how many people are willing to follow him, so as not to become a bachelor commander at that time.

Long Ao replied: "I have already talked with Song Yu, Xiang Wei, Cao Jian, Liu Gao, Zang Ci and others. They are willing to follow the elder brother. The old subordinates of the eldest brother in the camp have been bullied by the Qi people on weekdays. They dare not speak out against the Qi people. As long as the eldest brother raises his arms, the old subordinates in Pengcheng in the past are willing to raise their troubles with the elder brother."

"That's good! You go and communicate with them first, and then send someone out of the city to contact Zhao's army tonight." Longchuan nodded with a smile. He didn't expect that so many people would be willing to follow him today, but all this was attributed to the monarchs and ministers of Qi. If it weren't for their contempt for the surrendered soldiers and generals, he would probably not have found so many followers.

However, what Longchuan and Long Ao didn't know had been seen through by Han Qing. Longchuan camp was surrounded by suspicious lines sent by Han Qing. That night, when Long Ao had just sent someone to secretly leave the city, he was seen by the suspicious lines sent by Han Qing, and told Han Qing about the matter.

When the eyewitness came to the Han Qing Central Army tent, there were also Qi general Wu Lie, Jia Biao and counselor Kuai Li in the tent. Zhuang Buxi, when the eyewitness told the conspiracy of the Long brothers, Wu Lie and Jia Biao were furious.

Jia Biao said angrily: "General, these surrendered generals of Chu State are really ungrateful. They dare to collude with the Zhao army and ask the general to order the last general to kill them all."

But Han Qing did not agree, but looked at Kuai Li and Zhuang Buxi and said, "What do you think the two military advisors think?" Han Qing said something, and of course, the two rude masters, Jia Biao and Wu Lie, could not hear it, but Kuai Li and Zhuang Buxi could not hear it.

Kuai Li said: "Is the General trying to use the trick?" Kuai Li is a smart man and has been an old partner with Han Qing for many years. He can guess what Han Qing means in every sentence.

Han Qing nodded with a smile and said, "What the military advisor said is very much. I am going to use the trick."

"I said General, Military Advisor, what do you mean? We were all confused." Wu Lie, who was standing beside him, saw Han Qing and Kuai Li and Zhuang Buxi, who were mysterious, so he was curious and asked.

Han Qing smiled and said nothing, while Zhuang Buxi, who was standing beside him, explained: "General Wu, General Jia, and General are talking about the generals who are talking about it. Don't care about the Longchuan brothers first. When they are in trouble, they will catch all the surrendered generals of Western Chu and Zhao's army in one place."

"We still don't understand very much, but we will do whatever the general wants us to do." Wu Lie and Jia Biao looked at each other and said they didn't understand. However, they said it doesn't matter if they don't understand, as long as Han Qing wants them to do, they will do whatever they want.

Han Qing said: "Okay, from today on, you have watched the Long brothers to death. If you have any movement, you should tell me as soon as possible."

"Here!" Wu Lie and Jia Biao responded.

At the same time, the people sent from Long Ao to the city also found Sima Tai, the general of Zhao army who was responsible for contacting Long Ao, and told Sima Tai what the Long brothers meant. Sima Tai did not dare to hesitate at the moment and quickly informed Zhao Xin of the matter.

When Zhao Xin learned about this, he was very happy and said to Sima Tai: "Okay, General Sima did a pretty job. Tell Long Ao's people that three days later, I asked them to open the north gate of Leling City for me and let our army enter the city. At the same time, I will take his people to hold Han Qing back for me, and don't let Han Qing run away. As long as it succeeds, I will protect him as a four-level rank, and go to the court in the future and lead the army alone."

Zhao Xin was not stingy at all with the promise he could give to the Long brothers. After all, as long as he succeeded in the battle and captured Han Qing, the Qi State would be over.

"Here!" Sima Tai replied.

When the messenger returned to the city, he informed the Long brothers about the matter and told them that Zhao Xin wanted them to raise an uprising three days later, open the north gate, and hold Han Qing away, so that Han Qing could not be allowed to run away.

Longchuan felt that this matter was not easy, but Zhao Xin's promise was too tempting, so Longchuan gritted his teeth and agreed to the plan to incur the matter in three days. He also called Xiang Wei, Song Yu, Liu Gao, Zang Ci, Cao Jian and others overnight. After several conspiracies, Xiang Wei and others went to incite their former subordinates, while Longchuan was responsible for confusing Han Qing. After three days, he launched a big uproar.
