The envoys sent to the Wei army by Handan, the capital of the Korean king, were Han Chao, the secretary of the Han royal court, and Zhao Zhuo, the scholar doctor, and the escort was the local general of Handan, Zhang Kaidi. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

A group of more than a dozen of them, riding in three carriages and hoisting the banner of "Han", slowly came to the Wei camp, which was only five or six miles away from Handan City.

At that time, Zhao Zhuo, a scholar, peeked from the carriage and saw that the Wei camp in the distance seemed to stretch for more than ten miles, his face was a little ugly, and he turned his head to Shangqing Han Chao and said: "Lord Han Chao, the Wei army is only five miles away from the city to set up camp, and its heart to defeat my Handan is very strong. ”

Han Chao nodded when he heard this, agreeing with Zhao Zhuo's statement, after all, only when the Wei army was extremely eager to attack Handan, would they choose to camp only five miles away from the city, so as to facilitate the attack on Handan in the future.

This reflected the self-confidence of the Wei army - they did not think that the Han army in Handan could pose any threat to them.

"The Wei army has won several battles, and the soldiers are arrogant, or there may be an opportunity to take advantage of it." Han Chao stroked his beard and pondered.

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo also nodded in favor.

Both of them felt that the Wei army had built a military camp only five miles away from Handan, which was obviously caused by the pride of winning a few battles, and the so-called arrogant army would be defeated, so Han Chao and Zhao Zhuo believed that as long as they could stabilize this Wei army, delay the date of their attack on Handan as much as possible, and wait for the reinforcements led by the "Shanggu Shouma Lu" to arrive, they would definitely be able to defeat the Wei army and lift the siege of Handan.

While the two of them were discussing in the carriage, the carriage slowly came to the Wei camp, and the escort of the envoy team stepped forward with open ground and negotiated with the Wei soldiers guarding near the camp gate, explaining the reason for coming.

Guarding near the gate of this camp today is the non-commissioned officer of the Shangshui Army, "Bai Shu", who has now been promoted to a 500-strong general.

At that time, Bai Shu was laughing and amusing with the surrounding Shangshui soldiers near the camp, and suddenly saw three carriages in the distance slowly approaching under the protection of several escort horses, and frowned slightly, after all, these three carriages were all erected with the word "Han" flag.

So, Bai Shu led more than 20 Shangshui soldiers and soldiers to surround them, and aimed their weapons at these uninvited guests.

Seeing this, the envoy's guards stepped forward and explained to Bai Shu in the Wei dialect: "We are on the orders of the king, and we want to see Wei Gonggongrun, hoping to give convenience. ”

"Wei Gonggongrun? Oh, it's His Royal Highness King Su......

Bai Ju was originally a Chu man from the "Pingxuan Army", who had lived in Wei for five years and had mastered the script and dialect of Wei, otherwise, it would be really embarrassing at this time.

"What's the proof?" Bai Shu asked.

Seeing this, Zhang Kaidi took out the negotiation document written by Marquis Han Wu from his arms, dismounted and handed it to Bai Shu.

Bai Ju glanced at the open ground vigilantly, then spread out the negotiation document and glanced at it a few times, and saw that this document did not look like a forgery, so he nodded and said, "I will send someone to ask His Royal Highness King Su." Before that, please hand over your weapons to us, and the envoys in the carriage will also be disembarked and searched. ”

"Body search?"

After learning Bai Shu's true words from the open mouth, Han Chao and Zhao Zhuo couldn't help but be a little annoyed, after all, they came as envoys this time, and Wei Jun's body search behavior was really an insult to them.

But Bai Shu didn't take Han Chao and Zhao Zhuo's dissatisfaction to heart at all - it was not that he deliberately embarrassed the two Handan envoys, but because Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, had been assassinated more than once, so that now the outsiders who wanted to see Zhao Hongrun, the soldiers of the Su Wangjun were eager to strip them up, lest these people who didn't know the details hide sharp blades somewhere on their bodies.

At Bai Ji's insistence, Han Chao and Zhao Zhuo were searched by several Shangshui soldiers with calm faces, including the guards and other personnel accompanying them.

About half an hour later, a soldier hurriedly rushed over, clasped his fists at Bai Shu and said, "Your Highness has an order, and I have invited the Handan envoy to meet the commander of the Chinese army." ”

Bai Shu nodded, came to Han Chao, Zhao Zhuo, and Zhang Kaidi, and said, "Three, please." ”

Han Chao, Zhao Zhuo, and Zhang Kaidi glanced at each other, feeling a little uneasy in their hearts, after all, they had already confiscated their weapons at this time, and the place they were going to go to was the camp of 100,000 Wei troops.

However, to the surprise of the three of them, the Wei soldiers in the camp did not seem to be as fierce as they had originally imagined.

Along the way, they encountered many Wei soldiers, but those Wei soldiers either looked at them with a smile or looked at them with curiosity, and did not appear to deliberately humiliate them as expected.

Even, on the way, when he met several generals with thousands of people and two thousand generals, those Wei generals only looked them up and down a few times, asking Bai Ji if he had searched the latter's body, and let him go after being confirmed, without the slightest intention of embarrassing Han Chao and Zhao Zhuo.

"The military discipline of this Wei army......

Han Chao and Zhao Zhuo glanced at each other and exchanged a look.

On the way to the Shuai Tent, Han Chao, Zhao Zhuo, and Zhang Kai quietly looked at the situation in the Wei camp.

At this time, this Wei camp has not yet been built, and there are many soldiers carrying wood back and forth on the way, but what makes Han Chao and the three of them secretly frown is that these soldiers have not been slack because of their hard work, on the contrary, these Wei soldiers are giggling one by one, and their morale is extremely high.

This is called the unity of all - almost all the Wei soldiers in the Wei camp are contributing to the attack on Handan, the royal capital of Korea.

This discovery made the hearts of Han Chao, Zhao Zhuo, and Zhang Kaidi sink.

After a short time, the three of them, under the guidance of 500 generals Bai Shu, came to the tent of the Chinese army commander in the camp.

At this time, outside the tent, Shen Yu, the head of the sect's guard, was standing there, and when he saw five hundred people leading Bai Shu to lead several Handan envoys, he nodded to Bai Shu and said, "Leave it to me here." ”

"Yes!" Bai Shu clenched his fists and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Zong Wei Chang Wei Jiao looked up and down at Han Chao, Zhao Zhuo, and Zhang Kaidi, and asked, "The three are the envoys of Handan?" ”

Hearing this, he took a step forward openly, and Zhengse introduced: "This is Lord Han Chao, the chief envoy, Lord Zhao, this is Lord Zhao Zhuo, and the contemptible person is the protector." ”

"Oh." Wei Jiao nodded, then stretched out his hand and said, "Please." …… His Highness has been waiting in the tent for a few hours. ”

Under the guidance of Wei Jiao, Han Chao, Zhao Zhuo, and Zhang Kaidi walked into the handsome tent with some apprehension.

It is no wonder, after all, the object of their request to see this time is the eighth prince of the King of Wei, the commander of the 100,000 Wei army, the enemy commander who captured Shangdang County and then approached the city of Handan.

But after they entered the account, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Because in the tent, Zhao Hongrun, who was sitting on the main seat, looked handsome and young, like a child of a rich family, with a smile on his face, he couldn't tell that he was a commander who held 100,000 troops and buried the lives of hundreds of thousands of Wei enemies.

Seeing Han Chao, Zhao Zhuo, and Zhang Kaidi looking at Zhao Hongrun in a daze, Zongwei Changwei frowned, coughed, and said to Zhao Hongrun: "Your Highness, these three are Handan's envoys. ”

Hearing this, Han Chao woke up like a dream, and hurriedly bowed his hand, and complimented him with a smile: "In Xia is Han Chao, who has long admired the prestige of Wei Gongzirun, and when I saw it today, I was shocked. …… The heroes of the world in my heart are so young, they can be called young heroes, and it is rare to see them in a hundred years. Speaking of this, he pretended to be angry and said to Zhao Zhuo: "Lord Zhao, Han has just lost his temper, why didn't you remind me?" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo said innocently: "How can Lord Han blame me? …… Master Han didn't know, my cousin had a little daughter who had just arrived at the age of Jilu, and he was looking for a suitable marriage under him, and asked for a young man, I was worried about it these days, and I just saw Wei Gongzirun, I thought to myself, hey, isn't this far away in front of me. ”

Han Chao laughed when he heard this: "Your cousin's daughter, how can she be worthy of this Wei Gongzirun in front of you and me?" Hugh was going to make people laugh. With that, he saluted Zhao Hongrun apologetically.

During this period, when the two of them were talking, Zhao Hongrun and the rest of the sect guards in the tent were all amused by these two people, which made the slight embarrassment disappear suddenly.

"Pretty good at talking......

Zhao Hongrun looked at Han Chao and Zhao Zhuo with a smile, stroked his palms and smiled: "The kindness of this Lord Zhao, this king has a heart, and this king already has a good family, so I can only decline the kindness of Deputy Envoy Zhao." ”

After listening to Zhao Hongrun's joke, Zhao Zhuo showed a regretful expression in a timely manner, which made the atmosphere in the tent quite harmonious.

After some jokes, Zhao Hongrun ordered the guards to set up seats for Han Chao, Zhao Zhuo, and Zhang Kaidi.

At this time, Zhao Hongrun already knew in his heart that this Han Chao and Zhao Zhuo were quite eloquent lobbyists, and to deal with this kind of lobbyist, they must not be allowed to master the discourse, otherwise they would be led by the other party.

Therefore, after Han Chao and the others took their seats, he took the lead in asking: "The three of you came here today, I don't know what advice you have?" …… Oh, by the way, please don't blame the king for his poor hospitality, the king of Japan has been quite busy in recent days, and his mind is over there. ”

Very busy, busy with what?

Of course, he is busy preparing to attack Handan, the royal capital of South Korea!

Sure enough, hearing this, the smiles on Han Chao and Zhao Zhuo's faces froze, and their momentum was also stagnant.

After pondering for a while, Han Chao clenched his fists and said, "Gongzi Run, I am waiting to come this time on the orders of my king, hoping to make peace with your country and call off the truce. …… For this reason, my Handan has prepared a generous gift, as long as Run Gongzi agrees to withdraw the troops and lift the siege of my Handan, I Handan will have a generous gift. ”

"Buy me?"

Zhao Hongrun couldn't laugh or cry, shook his head and said with a smile: "The kindness of the two envoys is the king's heart, how can the king abolish the public because of personal gain?" ”

Hearing this, Han Chao hurriedly said: "Not only Gongzi Run, but for your army and your country, I will also have a generous gift to give to my Handan, just ask for peace between the two countries, and call off the truce." ”

『…… Is this what it means to admit defeat in reparation?'

Zhao Hongrun looked at Han Chao with some surprise when he heard this, a little confused.

After all, in his opinion, although the losses of the South Korean army this time are not small, they are not to the point where South Korea is broken, and South Korea still has enough troops to recover its inferiority, but why easily admit defeat?

If you put yourself in their shoes, Zhao Hongrun is absolutely unwilling to admit defeat like this.

"Problematic ......"

He said secretly.
