The female leader of the barbarian tribe who claimed to be Zhurong was indeed beautiful and charming. Even the Shu kings, who were countless beauties like Goujian, were stunned for a moment.

Looking up, I saw the beautiful woman in front of the hall, wrapped in a colorful linen coat on her upper body, a pair of snow-white and powerful arms, just barely outside, and a lower body with only a skin skirt that had just reached her knees. Her snow-white calves were so singularly naked in the air.

Her skin skirt was very tight, and her figure was quite plump. Her tight buttocks, her tight buttocks were about to emerge, and her slim waist that was unbearable to hold her, fully showing her plump but slim figure.

When Zhu Rong appeared like this, all the men's eyes in the lobby were gathered on her, dazzling and dazzling.

"This female barbarian has a pretty charming and beautiful appearance. I am preparing to take a Southern barbarian woman as my concubine to criticize the barbarians. This Zhurong is exactly what I want..."

Gou Jian's thoughts flew around, and a meaningful smile quietly raised the corner of his mouth. He had already thought about the beautiful Zhurong in front of him.

At this time, Meng Huo, who was sitting at the steps, suddenly became unhappy when he saw Gou Jian staring at Zhu Rong with such a look.

He immediately sprinkled the cup in his hand, put it on the table with a bang, and said in a depressing voice: "I said, King of Shu, don't stare at Zhurong, and don't think about making any decisions about her. Zhurong has already set up a engagement with me. It is my fiancée. I will marry her once I go back to Nanzhong."

As a barbarian, Meng Huo did not have so many Chinese etiquettes and spoke without any restraint. Even if he had surrendered to Goujian, he did not have so many concerns at all. He said it directly.

His words really made Goujian very embarrassed, and he quickly turned his eyes away from Zhu Rong and coughed repeatedly to cover up his embarrassment.

The ministers in Shu, including Fazheng and Huang Quan, were also embarrassed by Meng Huo's introspection, and they all bowed their heads and pretended to drink.

The men were very embarrassed. Zhu Rong, who was the person involved, was not shy at all. Instead, he smiled cheerfully and said to Meng Huo: "Meng Huo, I have a engagement with you, but I haven't faked you yet. I'm not your woman yet. The King of Shu looks at me a few more times. What does it have to do with you?"

"Rong'er, you--" Meng Huo was choked and speechless, and this time it was his turn to be embarrassed.

Looking at Meng Huo's awkward expression, Zhu Rong smiled proudly and said to Gou Jian: "I heard that King Shu is handsome, he is a hero. Today I see it. As expected, it is the same as the rumors. If I, Zhu Rong, are not engaged yet, you would be good to marry King Shu. But I have already gotten married to Meng Huo, so I naturally have to keep my word and can't marry King Shu again."

Goujian is even more embarrassed.

He really didn't expect that this southern barbarian woman could be so open that she dared to be in front of so many men. I treated my engagement as a joke.

"This Nanman woman has a very scent..."

Goujian thought to himself, but on the surface he suppressed the embarrassment and said with a smile: "Captain Zhu is really a generous person. He is so good at joking. Come on, come and see the seat of the leader Zhu."

After a few greetings, Goujian put forward the main topic and proposed to ask Meng Huo to lead his army to station in Jiangyang City to resist the invasion of the Wei army, and promised to reward Meng Huo and Zhurong and many other southern barbarian leaders.

Meng Huo was located in a remote place in the Southern Barbarians, with a low news. He had no idea of ​​the pottery merchants' power, nor did he know how powerful the Wei army was. He had no idea what terrible enemy Goujian wanted them to deal with.

Moreover, Meng Huo himself lacked foresight and was tempted by the generous conditions offered by Goujian. In addition, when he was given a pretext, his nephew had already given him hostage to Goujian. After being favored by Goujian, he quickly agreed to Goujian.

At this moment, Goujian reached a meeting with Meng Huo, and Meng Huo led 50,000 barbarian troops to Jiangyang to block the Wei army. Goujian sent Li Hui to serve as Meng Huo's military officer, and Wu Yi led 5,000 Shu troops to accompany Jiangyang to assist in the war.

Goujian himself led the main army to the north and returned to the north, stationed troops in Wuyang City northwest of Jiangyang to the far north, and mobilized food and grass to supply Meng Huo's army.

After the conditions were agreed, Goujian rewarded Meng Hu and his group with great rewards, and asked them to return to the camp immediately, leading various barbarian troops to Jiangyang City.

The barbarian leaders all retreated one after another. Goujian stood at the top of the level, watching Zhu Rong's plump but graceful figure disappear outside the hall. He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, and a hint of unaware regret flashed between his eyebrows.

"Then Zhurong is really beautiful and charming. As the saying goes, a hero loves beauty. Did the king take a fancy to Zhurong and want to take him as his concubine?" Zhang Song beside him asked with a smile at some point.

Gou Jian was shocked, a hint of embarrassment flashed through his eyes, but he pretended to be serious: "You have thought too much. I am not the kind of person who is greedy for beauty. In fact, I knew that Zhurong, a large tribe of the Southern Barbarians, wanted to take her as a concubine, but just wanted to win over the Southern Barbarians through marriage and consolidate the Southern Barbarians' submission to this king. But I didn't expect that Zhurong and Meng Huo had already made a marriage contract in advance."

Speaking of this, Goujian sighed again, and the words "regret" were written on his face.

"The king is always concerned about the importance of national affairs, which is really the blessing of the people of our great Shu." Zhang Song hurriedly squeezed out a look of respect and bowed his hands to admire him.

Gou Jian gently stroked his short beard, smiled without saying a word, and was flattered by Zhang Song.

"But, the king has no way to do this Zhurong..." Zhang Song turned his words and squeezed a trace of weirdness into the corner of his mouth.

"You... do you have any solutions?" Gou Jian's eyes lit up and he asked impatiently.

Zhang Song leaned close to him and sneered, "For us, Meng Huo is just a tool to deal with the pottery thieves. When Meng Huo retreats to the Wei army, the king can reward him in the name of a reward. He summoned Meng Huo to come, and Jie Shi took him down in one fell swoop, either killing or under house arrest. At that time, wouldn't the king be able to accept Zhu Rong as his concubine with justification?"

A fierce light flashed in Gou Jian's eyes immediately, and the sneer hooked on the corner of his mouth quietly added a hint of coldness.

He was obviously very excited, but his expression changed in a blink of an eye and hesitated: "Meng Huo has surrendered me and made great contributions. I am afraid that I will force the Southern Barbarians to rebel again."

"The king is too worried." Zhang Song smiled disapprovingly, "The Southern Barbarians are originally a loose alliance, and each tribe only nominally regards Meng Huo as the communist ruler. Who would really rebel for Meng Huo? Moreover, the leaders of those tribes and their nephews are in our hands, which will make them dare not act rashly."

After swallowing his saliva, Zhang Song continued, "Besides, Zhu is a large tribe in the southern barbarians. The king accepted Zhu Rong as a concubine, which was equivalent to inserting a Dinghai magic needle among the southern barbarian tribes. As long as Zhu's tribe is loyal to the king, who dares to rebel in other barbarian tribes?"

Zhang Song said something wildly and completely dispelled Goujian's concerns. He seemed to have seen Zhu Rong's beautiful and plump body surrendered to his climax.

In the lobby, the King of Great Shu sounded and the proud laughter.

...

Jiangzhou City, East Gate.

The character "Wei" is a king flag, flying in front of it.

The pottery merchant who returned from the Fujie City patrol, once again held his head high and entered this, the largest city in the eastern part of Shu Kingdom.

The king entered the city, and on the way to the temporary palace, the scholars and citizens of Jiangzhou knelt on both sides of the street, kneeling to welcome the return of the King of the Great Wei.

These Shu people were completely afraid of the strength of the Wei army. The King of the Great Wei was invincible and could only accept the practical things that became subjects of the Great Wei.

In order to save their lives and to please the pottery merchants, these scholars and citizens of Jiangzhou spontaneously rose up to welcome the pottery merchants back to express their loyalty to the new master.

The pottery enjoyed the kneeling of these new subjects, enjoyed their fearful gazes, and entered the city with their heads raised, heading straight for the palace.

Jiangzhou City is the largest city in the eastern part of Shu Kingdom. Goujian visits several times every year, and there is always a Shu King Palace built in the ancient city.

Now, this Jiangzhou Palace carefully built by Goujian has changed its flag and given it to the pottery merchant.

The pottery merchant entered the palace and rewarded the soldiers with their brave battles to commend the soldiers.

For a time, the entire military camp inside and outside Jiangzhou City fell into a boiling celebration, and tens of thousands of soldiers were all excited and thanked the pottery merchant for their gifts.

When the pottery merchant was full of energy and rewarded the soldiers of the three armies, he also set up a banquet in the palace hall and drank happily with the civil servants and military generals. He was very happy.

With fine wine in your mouth, how can you not be able to enjoy the fun without singing and dancing?

There were more than a dozen dancers hidden in this palace, all carefully selected by Goujian, thinking that he would enjoy his time on the eastern tour.

At present, all these beautiful girls have fallen into the hands of the pottery merchant. During this celebration banquet, they danced and played with shadows and flattered the pottery merchant.

When there is dance, Meile is naturally indispensable. When the sisters Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao are both proficient in music, they play the piano and flute for the Tao merchant that night, and offer the music of nature.

After the wars over the past few days, after this night of venting, the pottery merchant was exhausted and stopped until he was drunk. The next day, it was bright.

Just as the pottery was yawning and walking out of the outer hall, waiting for the ministers to report on their routine, he turned into the outer hall and happened to see Zhang Liang also.

"Junior, you have finally arrived. You are so slow." Tao Shang was so energetic that he walked up with a smile.

Zhang Liang put away his lightly shaking feather fan, came forward, bowed his hand, and said with a wry smile: "The road to Shu is difficult, and Liang is a little unacceptable to the local conditions, so it was a few days late. General Ma Yuan led 40,000 troops, not far from Jiangzhou. As for the other 80,000 troops, it may take a few days to arrive."

When Zhang Liang arrived, he said that forty thousand soldiers arrived, the Taoist merchant was very happy, so he asked Zhang Liang to drink and welcome him.

The Tao merchant talked about how he had captured the fish's belly since he first entered Shu, captured Zhixian, defeated Zhang Ren and Li Yan, and seized Jiangzhou City. He told Zhang Liang to listen.

Zhang Liang heard it and sighed repeatedly, and finally bowed his hand and sighed with a smile: "The king uses troops like a god, playing with Shu generals in his palms. It seems that Liang doesn't need to hurry over here at all. The king alone is enough to take Chengdu."

"When will you learn to flatter your house?" Tao Shang slapped him, but he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, and he smiled and drank a glass.

While talking and joking, Su Qin hurried over. Looking at the expression, it was obvious that there was bad news.

Seeing that Zhang Liang was also there, Su Qin was happy at first, and then smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Zifang, it's really a coincidence that you came here. It seems that you didn't bring good luck to the king."

Su Qin's words are obviously something in his words.

Tao Shang saw his expression and when he heard his words, he had guessed seven or eight points, and asked: "Su Qin, did Liu Zhang use some new tricks to make it difficult for us to lead to Chengdu."

Su Qin did not dare to hesitate, and presented a piece of silk book information to him, saying, "Our Jinyiwei sent the latest urgent report back. Liu Zhang not only had surrendered the Southern Barbarians, but also appointed Meng Huo as the governor of Jiangyang, leading 50,000 barbarians to Jiangyang to block our front army. His army could enter Jiangyang City within two days."

Southern Barbarian Army!

Goujian actually came up with the trick of using the barbarian army to deal with him...

The Taoist merchant slowly sipped the wine in the glass, his eyebrows were quiet, and his thoughts turned, digesting Su Qin's really not good information.

Since Tao Shang entered Shu, after every battle, he has actually been calculating the number of losses of the Shu army.

The battle of the fish belly annihilated four thousand Shu troops.

In the battle of Zhixian, five thousand Shu troops were destroyed.

The first battle to the east of Jiangzhou City annihilate more than 5,000 Shu troops.

The Second Battle of Jiangzhou City East Annihilated More than 10,000 Shu Army.

In the battle of conquering Jiangzhou, the Shu army was wiped out again.

This means that after the five battles, the pottery merchants had wiped out nearly 34,000 Shu troops, and the number was nearly one-third of the total Goujian army.

According to this calculation, Goujian, in addition to stationing in Hanzhong and guarding against Cao Cao's 10,000 or 20,000 troops, no more than 40,000 troops could be used to deal with his own troops.

Moreover, such an important city in Jiangzhou has been trapped, and the Shu soldiers are in a turmoil. Tao Shang had absolute confidence, and with a large army of 150,000 to 100,000, it was enough to suppress the Shu army.

What surprised the pottery merchant was that he did not expect that Goujian could mobilize 50,000 barbarian troops to fight for him, which was something that the pottery merchant had not calculated.
Chapter completed!
