Chapter 99 Ten Thousand Gold 2
It is almost early winter in October, and it is still warm when the sun appears during the day. At night, when the bitter north wind blows, the military flags and tents in the barracks are whistling, and the coldness penetrates the hearts. However, gold is warm. Five thousand gold is moved into the shogunate. Although the candlelight is not very bright, the tent is still shining with gold.
In addition to gold, there is also beautiful jade, in addition to beautiful jade, there is also Langya, and Yulin, and there are also beautiful women. Yellow, white, red, blue, and timid and delicate... Lian Po once served as the minister of Zhao State. It was not that he had seen the world, but these things were stacked in the tent, and it was still a waste of time. That night, all the catapults that had been bombarding the city wall for more than a month stopped firing cannons.
"Big King," Chang Jiang whispered in the morning during breakfast.
"What's the matter?" Xiong Jing's face darkened, knowing that there must be bad news.
"It is reported that there are differences in General Lian Po's army." Chang Jiang said. "It seems to have received a large amount of bribes from the Wei people."
He heard that it was Lian Po's army rather than Xiang Yan's army, so Xiong Jing breathed a sigh of relief. However, he suppressed him back after half of his breath. He shook his head and said, "I don't believe it!"
"King, there were several rut marks outside the shogunate last night. Judging from the rut marks, the things that should be gold and silver should not be..." Chang Jiang did get accurate information. Not only were there evidence, but also physical evidence.
"Don't believe." Xiong Jing didn't want to listen anymore, so Changjiang had to stop talking. Although his face did not change after Changjiang Zhiyan, he could not drink a bowl of soy milk after only half a bowl of soy milk.
In terms of sincerity, he did not believe anyone except the Mi surname, but Lian Po was born into a noble family and had always been brave in combat.
Humiliation is actually a habit. As long as you are born in Xishi, you will naturally have the factors of humility. This is created by the environment and is definitely not born like this; cowardice is the root of lying. True brave people disdain to lie and do not know how to lie.
Lian Po, who was born in aristocratic battle, colluded with the enemy in the front... It was difficult for Xiong Jing to believe this. If Lian Po was such a person, he would not have been driven out of Zhao and left to Chu. However, at least half of the fate of Chu was in the hands of Lian Po. If he colluded with the enemy, the consequences would be disastrous. The Chu army would be completely destroyed, the Ao Cang battle was completely defeated, and the north of the Huai River was completely lost. Thinking of this, Xiong Jing began to sweat.
What is the most important thing for a king? It is not kindness, wisdom, cruelty, or even bravery, but a mentality of enduring pressure. War is a fog, and no one knows its result before the dice lands. Fierce battle is not cruel. Waiting, waiting without knowing the deadline and doing nothing is the greatest cruelty.
These days, Xiong Jing will inexplicably think of Chang Shenkai. It is reported that during the Anti-Japanese War in Chongqing, he often howled in the bathroom. He also thought of Uncle Steel. After learning that the Germans launched a full-scale war, his reaction was a long period of frustration and silence. He delivered a radio speech on July 3, the eleventh day after the sneak attack...
"Brother Wang." Mi Qin, with a round face, smiled and walked over, and she pulled Xiong Jing's arm: "Please take me to see the river."
"Go to see the river?" Xiong Jing came to his senses, and he was still immersed in thinking.
"Yes." The princesses nodded frequently, and their dear mother Mi Qing grabbed Xiong Jing's other arm. "I heard of Dahe from time to time, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. Now Dahe is a hundred miles away. Please take me to take a look."
"It's not just a glance." Xiong Jing smiled. As the princesses were playing and excited, he asked Chang Jiang to prepare the boat quickly.
"The king is there, have you gone to see the river?" Half an hour later, Li Qi and others, who were one step late, were disappointed.
"What should I do?" The general who was traveling with him was worried. "When the king comes back?"
"No!" Li Qi changed into clothes, no longer the trembling appearance of yesterday. "Go to find Yi Yang Hou."
The army of the throne was at the foot of Daliang City. Yitu, the Marquis of Yiyang, was once the prefect of the Grand Sima Mansion. Li Qi's superior and the king were not there. The first thing Li Qi thought of was the Marquis of Yiyang.

"Your Majesty really wants to do this?" In addition to Wei Jianyou, the Mingtang in the Mingtang of Xinling, there is also Bai Yi and Yu Tu, the Daliang general.
"Of course." Wei Jianyou's eyes were firm. He glanced at Bai Yi, and Bai Yi nodded and said, "The Qin army is attacking Ao Cang. If Ao Cang is defeated, the army will reach Daliang, and the Wei will be in danger! The general's father was killed by the Qin people, and the general's father was also killed by the Qin people. The general really wants the Qin people to occupy Daliang. Will the Wei people die?"
"But the Chu army..." Yu Tu was not young. He knew the danger of allowing the enemy to enter the city, which was likely to be a destruction of the country.
"Does the general believe me?" Wei Jianyou stood up. "If the general believes me, don't worry about what will happen after the Chu army enters the city."
"General Yu," Bai Yi interrupted at the right time, "Do you think the emperor has only one person to ask for?"
Bai Yi's words made Yu Tu change his color in vain. Over the past month, he has heard a lot of rumors, and even heard the rumors that Xinling Jun wanted to take over the king and replace him.
"Our Great Wei is located at the waist of the world, and is sandwiched between Qin and Chu. Chu has become stronger and cannot be defeated by Wei. The best strategy is to make a clear gap so that the two tigers can fight each other. In this way, the Great Wei will not be hurt; in this way, the Great Wei will be the only one who is good; in this way, the Great Wei will remain in the country.
If the general insists on the enemy, it is indeed against the order and against the master. However, can the general know whether the ministers of the country are loyal to the king? The ministers of the country are not loyal to the king but loyal to the country. Even if the enemy enters the city, it is not against the Great Wei. They use Chu to resist Qin and preserve the country."
Bai Yi was both an official and a businessman, his words were sharp, and the truth in his words was impeccable. Seeing that Yu Tu's expression gradually calmed down, he clapped his hands and dozens of slaves carried out more than a dozen boxes from the inner room and opened them, and they were filled with gold and jade.
"This is the reward for the emperor, the ministers in the court, and the merchants in Daliang. Please accept the general." Bai Yi said earnestly.
"I dare not bear it. I..." Jin Yu was intoxicated, and Yu Chu dared not look at it anymore. "I was only worried that the Chu army would break through the outer city and then pull out the royal city."
"General Yu can retreat south of Honggou. If the Chu army crosses the water, they can attack it halfway." Wei Jianyou said. "Is this possible?"
"But." Yu Tu finally nodded and said, "Your Majesty Yu Xin. You will never harm Wei."
"Only Qin people, only Qin people are harming the Great Wei." Seeing that his father's prestige still exists in the hearts of the Wei people, Wei sighed. "The Qin people wanted to destroy the six kings. The kings of the six kings all bribe Qin. They bribe Qin and lose their strength, and lose their strength, which is the way to destroy them. Now that the Chu State is stronger, and dare to resist Qin with the strength of one country. I, the Great Wei, really have no courage, really no wisdom? No! When the Wei people were circulating across Hexi, and when the ancestor Hui established the capital of Daliang, how powerful!"
Yu Tu didn't ask for gold and jade, and he left Xinling Jun's Mansion with passion. Shortly after he left, two white pigeons flew out of the garden, crossed the city top, and headed south. Under the pigeon's wings, Wei King Wei Zeng was standing at the head of Daliang City. His eyes were looking at the warships loaded with Chu soldiers leaving on the gulf outside the city.
"King, the Chu army retreated! The Chu army retreated!" Wei Xi smiled like a flower on his face. This was his credit. From hearing that Lian Po was unintentionally attacking Daliang to sending bribes, he did it all by himself.
"Good, great kindness!" Wei Zeng was so rare that he laughed. The last time he laughed, he heard that the Qin State's magistrate was a Han marquis. "You have made merits and should be rewarded."
"I dare not accept it." Wei Xi said with a cleverness. "It was because the king had favors to Lian Po in the past, and this was the king's achievements."
"Haha, my achievements?" Wei Zeng laughed even more happily. This was indeed his contribution. When Lian Po fled to Daliang, he admired his name and feasted him many times, and recommended him to his father many times. However, Zhao State sent someone to warn him that he had to use it.
"It is the great king's merit. I am just relying on the great king's power." Wei Xi's waist was hunched down.
Wei Zeng stopped talking about the rewards, and he asked, "I will give you another five thousand gold to Lian Po tonight?"
"Report to the king, that's it." Wei Xi said. "If Lian Po had not obtained this gold, the Chu army would have all the generals. I would give you another five thousand gold tonight, and the Chu army withdrew 100,000 troops to help Xiang Yan guard Ao Cang."
"Good." Wei Zeng curled his smile, "I heard that the King of Chu was carrying out Ao's rule, and Chu was greedy and destroyed the country."
"Look, let's see." The temple man holding Lu Lijing next to him pointed at the Chu army camp north of the Hungou, "The Chu camp is in chaos."
"Look at me." After taking the Lu Li mirror handed over to the temple's people, Wei Zeng did see chaos under the flag of the Chu camp in a blurry sight. However, the Lu Li mirror given by the Qin people was not as clear as the Chu people. He could not see who those people were, and only saw that two teams were about to attack.
"What is this? What is this?!" Outside the shogunate, Yi Tuss was not afraid of aiming at his own spear, and raised a piece of Yuanjin to ask loudly. After he asked, he turned around and looked at the more and more Chu soldiers behind him, and said in a tomb: "This is the bribe of the Wei people. Last night, someone witnessed the Wei people sending several cars of bribes, Lian Po!" He waved his hand several times before saying: "——Tong Wei!"
The sun has set in the west, and gold is shining in the sun. Not all Chu soldiers have seen gold, but the golden color once appeared, it grabbed everyone's hearts.
"The General actually communicates with Wei?" The voice was very small at first, but then it became louder and louder, and his confused expression gradually showed anger. No wonder he had not allowed to attack the city for more than a month, no wonder he ordered the weapon to break the city to stop attacking the city, no wonder the soldiers moved their troops today.
"Liang Po comes out! Lian Po comes out! Lian Po comes out!" The Chu people were light and easy to get angry. They understood the whole story and were not afraid of the soldiers who were protecting the shogunate. They only had anger in their eyes. Even if they were not wearing armor, they also held their chests with their spears and forced them toward the military tent step by step.
"Rareless!" A voice came from behind everyone. Even though the scene was chaotic, the soldiers turned back without consciously, and then bowed their heads.
Xiong Jing came. After seeing Dahe, he came back. As soon as he came back, he heard an urgent report that the camp in the north of the city was in chaos, Lian Po was connected with Wei, and Yi Hou was about to challenge him.
"King!" Yi Tu ran over when he saw Xiong Jing, holding the piece of gold in his hand. "King, Lian Po is connected to Wei! Last night..."
"Take it!" Xiong Jing didn't listen at all, and just took it off. Hearing the king's order, the sanitation rushed up and took Yi Tu down.
"King, Lian Po is indeed..." Li Qi took over the gold from Yi Tu's hand, and after saying a little, he was taken down.
