"Your Highness......"

"His Royal Highness King Su ......"

When Zhao Hongrun appeared in the tent of the wounded soldiers, the emotions of the wounded soldiers were quite excited. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Especially those soldiers of the former Chu State who defected to the Wei army not long ago, they couldn't understand that a noble prince of the Wei State like Zhao Hongrun would actually come to the wounded soldier's tent to visit the injuries of these ordinary soldiers.

But the scene in front of them is real.

I saw His Royal Highness King Su, while feeding water to a soldier who was wounded by an arrow, and at the same time telling the nearby soldiers: "...... It is important to remember that the water you drink must be boiled and you should not drink raw water directly...... Pickled vegetables and cured meat should also be eaten less, and the king has sent some soldiers to hunt in the North Mountain, and asked them to send the hunted game here, and you have someone boil the broth to make up for the children. ”

Listening to the advice of His Royal Highness King Su, the tun chief in charge of managing this tent nodded vigorously and said yes again and again.

And the soldier who was personally fed the water was even more moved.

At this moment, inside and outside the tent, there is a lot of surrounding, whether it is the old soldiers of the Shang Shui Army, or those soldiers of the former Chu State who have not been incorporated for a long time, they all gather here to look around, and watch Zhao Hongrun comfort the wounded soldiers in the tent one by one, regardless of the new soldiers and old soldiers, they all shook hands with them and told them to live and recuperate.

And at this moment, outside the tent of the wounded soldiers, Shangshui Sergeant Yang Wuzheng looked at the crowd that was surrounded by water with a regretful face, grabbed his hair and said angrily: "Those hateful guys, I was also injured, why didn't you let me lie inside?" ”

On the side, Li Hui, Le Bao, and Gan Mao, who were on the same side as him, all made an expression that was difficult to disagree.

To tell the truth, Yang Wu's injury is really not a fraud, because two days ago, during the next day's battle, he was indeed shot by a sharp arrow when he charged, but this guy's body was really strong, and after the war, after smearing the herbal paste produced in the Sanchuan tribe, it had already been scarred, and it was no big deal today, so that the soldiers who were responsible for taking care of the wounded soldiers simply used him as a troublemaker to expel him.

As soon as he thought of this, Yang Wu was indignant in his heart.

The body is strong, and if you are wounded, you can't lie down in the tent of the wounded soldiers? Can't you let His Royal Highness King Su greet him personally? Is there any reason for this?!

Looking at Yang Wu's indignant appearance, Le Bao said angrily: "Didn't you talk to His Royal Highness King Su? ”

"If you say it, you can't say it again?" Yang Wu rolled his eyelids, hummed and said: "Last time, His Royal Highness King Su promised us a reward for the merchant army, we have received the sheep in Sanchuan, but the woman has not fulfilled it!" ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Lebao looked around a little nervously, and scolded in a low voice, "What stupid are you doing? How did His Royal Highness King Su promise...... Women or something. ”

"Didn't you?" Yang Wu looked at the most honest Li Hui with wide eyes, but saw the latter blushing and shaking his head.

"How do I remember that His Royal Highness King Su agreed to come at that time?" Yang Wu's face was full of confusion.

Seeing this, Le Leopard was angry and scolded with a smile: "Because your mind is full of these dirty things!" …… Don't teach Ah Hui badly, Ah Hui has been making good progress with his widowed sister-in-law recently. ”

"What do you say about me...... Li Hui's face was full of innocence, his face flushed in the evil laughter of Le Bao and Yang Wu, and he changed the topic in a panic: "Speaking of which, His Royal Highness King Su is really amazing." ”

Le Bao and Yang Wu glanced at each other, and said in their hearts, "Your way of changing the topic is too blunt, right?

However, they also knew that Li Hui was thin-skinned, so they didn't continue to tease him, and followed the latter's meaning and shifted the topic to the matter of His Royal Highness King Su visiting the wounded soldiers' tent.

In this regard, Gan Mao's evaluation was a little disdainful: "Hmph! This move is just to buy people's hearts, and he is counting on us soldiers to work for him. ”

For some reason, he deliberately aggravated the word soldier, and may still be entangled in the matter of Zhao Hongrun pushing him from the dignified general to the end.

After all, from a dignified general of the Donglai Army of the Qi State to an ordinary soldier of the Shang and Water Army of the Wei State, if it were not for a person with great perseverance, I am afraid that he would have collapsed long ago.

Hearing this, Le Leopard asked unhappily: "What's wrong with inviting people to buy people's hearts?" How many of your sons of Qi would be willing to do this? ”

Gan Mao was speechless, after all, even if he invited the hearts of the people, those sons of their Qi country were probably unwilling to bend down to the wounded barracks and surrender their identities to appease and comfort those soldiers at the bottom of the army.

After thinking about it, he stiffened his neck and said, "Our king will!" ”

"Your Majesty King Qi?" Li Hui, Yang Wu, Le Bao and the other three looked at Gan Mao with wide eyes, probably unable to believe that Lu Xi, the king of Qi, would also bend down to comfort the wounded soldiers.

The surprised gazes of the three of them made Gan Mao quite proud: "What am I lying to you about?" I miss my Gan Mao, and I have followed the king to the Chu Kingdom many times in the past, and I have seen it many times......"

"That's just an invitation to buy people's hearts." Le Bao said coldly, holding Gan Maosheng and swallowing the next words in his abdomen.

Just when they were idle and had nothing to discuss, there was a commotion in the wounded soldier's tent in the distance, and the four of them looked up, only to find that it was His Royal Highness King Su who walked out of the wounded soldier's tent and continued to the next soldier's tent.

Seeing this, Gan Mao didn't have the heart to worry about a junior like Lebao, touched the stubble on his chin, and muttered, "It looks like it's quite leisurely......"

"Do you mean His Royal Highness King Su?" Soldier Li Hui asked.

"Ahh Gan Mao nodded, and said with a little confusion on his face: "I didn't say it, the morale of our merchant army, to be honest, is not optimistic......

Listening to the sentence in Gan Mao's words, Le Leopard's face softened for a long time, looked into the distance, and rarely whispered: "It's the fifth day, right?" ”

"Hmm." Gan Mao nodded.

The so-called fifth day refers to the fact that the Shang Shui Army was attacked by the Chu army at night on the night of the fourth day, and went to attack the Chu army the next day, but was still repelled by the Chu army.

I have to say that although the battle ended in a draw between the two sides, it had an immeasurable negative impact on the morale of the merchant army.

But all the soldiers and generals who have some vision can see that the Five-Day War can be described as a major turning point for the Chu and Wei armies on the battlefield in the western suburbs of Shouying.

Prior to that, although the strength of the Shang Shui Army was only one-sixth of that of the opposing Chu army, it allowed the Chu army to be passively defended for a time.

But after the five-day battle, the Chu soldiers in the western suburbs of Shouying faintly had the intention of turning over, and came to the camp of the Shangshui army to fight outside the camp for several days.

I don't know what His Royal Highness King Su thought, he actually closed the camp and let those Chu soldiers insult him outside the tent, so that at this moment, the military spirit in the Shangshui army was unstable: some of the old soldiers were angry and eager to kill out of the camp; The other part of the newly incorporated former Chu State Army was panicked in their hearts, for fear of the defeat of the Shang Naval Army.

After all, the Shang Shui Army was defeated, and it seems that these former soldiers who defected to the Wei Army will not end much better.

It stands to reason that Zhao Hongrun, as the commander of the Wei army at this time, should organize an initiative to send troops, after all, the Wei army is only demoralized, and it is not true that it can't defeat the Chu army that came to fight, but I didn't expect that these His Royal Highness King Su repeatedly refused the invitation of generals like Lu Zhan and Xu Jiong in the army to fight.

"I really can't guess what this highness is thinking." Gan Mao shook his head slightly.

As the general of the Donglai Army of the former Qi State, he could not understand Zhao Hongrun's handling of the matter of the Chu army taking the initiative to come to fight.

"Maybe His Royal Highness King Su has his thoughts......"

"I hope so." Gan Mao sighed slightly.

may be a long-term relationship with the Shang Shui Army, and he has gradually developed feelings for this Wei army, and he doesn't want this army to die here.

At this time, Zhao Hongrun was walking out of another wounded soldier's tent.

After coming out, Zhao Hongrun and his entourage bumped into Yuan Zongwei Gao Kuo and Chong Zhao, who were now temporarily serving as 2,000 generals in the Shangshui Army.

"Your Highness."

"Hmm."

The two sides greeted each other, and Zhao Hongrun asked with a smile: "Gao Kuo, planting tricks, are you still adapting?" ”

The two Zongwei glanced at each other and said with a smile: "Thanks to His Highness, our brothers are now two thousand generals, and if we get a few more war exploits, maybe we can still get a noble honor after returning to Great Wei." ”

"Haha." Zhao Hongrun laughed, and after laughing three times, the smile on his face faded a little, because he knew very well that if there was nothing important, Gao Kuo and Chong Zhao would not take the initiative to see him, after all, the two of them were now the generals of the Shang Shui Army, how could they leave their posts without permission.

Sure enough, seeing that His Royal Highness's expression became a little more serious, Gao Gu recruited the two of them to understand, the former took a step forward and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, the morale of the sergeant in the army is not very stable." ”

"Talk as you go." Zhao Hongrun signaled.

So, while following Zhao Hongrun to the next wounded soldier's tent, Gao Kuo and Chong Zhao said in a low voice: "In the past two days, many generals in the army have asked to see the two of them, and I ask you to ask Your Highness for ......."

Hearing this, Zong Wei Chang Wei Jiao frowned and interjected: "Gao Kuo, seed tricks, you two should understand His Highness's considerations, why are you also messing around?" ”

"Isn't there no way? …… Those people came and asked me to come forward, we can't refuse, right? How hurtful and angry is this? After all, it is a ...... who has a good relationship on weekdays" Speaking of this, Gao Kuo lowered his voice and said to Zhao Hongrun: "Your Highness, why don't you reveal it a little...... Cavalry business? ”

Zhao Hongrun frowned and glanced at Gao Kuo, shook his head and said, "No, what if the news leaks?" ”

"But ......"

Gao Kuo seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Zhao Hongrun raising his hand.

I saw Zhao Hongrun staring at Gao Kuo, and whispered with an oath and irrefutable: "Two or three days at most...... Until then, I will support this king no matter what! ”

Gao Kuo and Gao Kuo glanced at each other, and hugged their fists.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Looking at the backs of Gao Kuo and Chongzhao leaving, Zhao Hongrun exhaled slightly.

In fact, counting the days, at least 30,000 archers from the north of Sichuan led by Bosil have almost reached this area.

The problem was that Zhao Hongrun did not simply call this cavalry to come to support in order to boost the morale of the Shang army, he was more inclined to design a Chu army in the western suburbs of Shouying.

What are you waiting for? It's almost time to lure the enemy, right? …… The commander of the Chu army, Gongsun Po.

Glancing at the direction of the western suburbs of Shouying, Zhao Hongrun said secretly. (To be continued.) )
