Chapter 123: Please go to Chang'an to live
Wei Zhuang was extremely annoyed in his heart now. The whole court of Dayue, including him, never imagined that a border conflict between Qin and Chu would evolve into the end and that Dayue would become the biggest victim. He was originally traveling abroad, but after hearing the news of the conflict between Qin and Chu and the escape of Princess Zhaohua, he immediately deduced that the Qi State wanted to be unfavorable to Princess Zhaohua, and originally wanted to enter the Luoying Mountains to rescue Princess Zhaohua, but broke this idea of the Qi people, and did not want to be in Luoying County, but collided with Cao Chong head-on.
He and Cao Chong, both martial arts masters, can be said to know each other and know each other, think of each other, and contain each other, originally he thought that he was going to lose, as long as Princess Zhaohua died, the conflict between Qin and Chu was inevitable, but fortunately, Princess Zhaohua actually escaped Shu Hui's pursuit under the protection of a small captain, which made him feel very good. Qin Chu is fine, and Da Yue is naturally fine.
But what he never expected was that this war between Qin and Chu actually involved the battle for the storage position of the Chu State. Unexpectedly, this was laid for today's predicament of Vietnam.
Theoretically, the queen of Chu is the princess of Yue, the second prince Min Ruoying is in blood, and the royal family of Yue is a relative, and the current emperor of Yue is his uncle, but whether it is the emperor of Yue or Wei Zhuang, over the years, it is Min Ruocheng, the prince of Chu, who has been supported.
There is no other reason, Min Ruocheng adheres to the ruling strategy of protecting the land and the people, and has no intention of expanding outward, while the second prince Min Ruoying is ambitious and wants to dominate the world.
Among the four countries, Yue Guo is the weakest, so he is also the most satisfied with the current pattern, and the first victim of any behavior that changes the pattern of the world must be Yue Guo. This is also the reason why Min Ruoying is a blood relative to the Yue royal family, but she cannot get their support.
All along, Min Ruocheng's position is stable, and the body of Min Wei, the emperor of Chu State, is not as good as a day, if nothing else, after Min Wei, it will inevitably be Min Ruocheng who takes over, and the pattern of the world will not change much.
No one would have thought that at the end of the bones, there would be such a thing, Min Ruoying rebounded strongly, and directly knocked Min Ruocheng into the dust with the help of the Western Border Military Case.
Min Ruocheng fell, Min Ruoying ascended to the throne, the eastern border army of Chu was dismissed, and the evil consequences of a series of fierce personnel turmoil in Chu directly plunged Yue into a deep crisis.
Qi people are coming! But it is impossible for the Yue State to get the support of Qin Chu at this time, the Qin State has suffered a catastrophe today, and the heart is weak, and the Chu State has temporarily changed generals, Luo Liang has just taken office as the commander of the Eastern Border Army, the generals are not clear to each other, and they cannot say that they trust each other, Luo Liang will inevitably be cautious at this moment and will not send troops at will.
If Cheng Wu was still the commander of the Eastern Frontier Army, the situation would be very different. Wei Zhuang sighed, one wrong step, one wrong step. The only thing he could do now was to try to slow down the movement of the Qi army and buy more time for the Yue Kingdom. And if you want to assassinate the commander of an army in the midst of thousands of troops, the difficulty is so great that it is extremely slim for a martial arts master, but now for Wei Zhuang, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, you have to give it a try.
The 100,000 army of Qi people attacked the Yue country, which was regarded as transporting heavy people, losing the army, with a total number of more than 300,000 people, the camp stretched for dozens of miles, Wei Zhuang walked in the meantime, his goal was very clear, it was the big tent under the handsome flag erected high in the middle of the camp. Cao Yun, the commander of the Qi army, is a member of the imperial family, the younger brother of the emperor of Qi, and was named a prince, and his handsome flag is eye-catching yellow.
The defense of the periphery is completely equal to zero for people like Wei Zhuang, but Wei Zhuang also knows that the real dilemma lies in the final interior defense. The commander of the assassination army, once discovered by the other party before the action, is basically declared a failure, even if the assassin himself is a martial arts master, no one can escape under the siege of thousands of troops.
The only possibility is to suddenly appear in front of the opposing coach without touching the opponent's defense, Cao Yun is a ninth-level peak cultivator, and it is not difficult to let himself stand in front of him, and it is not difficult to take his life in a very short time. It's not impossible to kill them and then try to get out.
Wei Zhuang's figure looked a little blurry in the moonlight, he was already standing on the edge of the inner defensive circle, and if he took another step forward, there was no way back.
Taking a deep breath, Wei Zhuang took a step forward and stepped into the invisible defensive circle. Before, it was like a leisurely stroll, but now it is like a ghost, straight like a wisp of green smoke, flashing between the big tents, and hitting the yellow Chinese army tent in the middle.
The entire camp was still silent, and Wei Zhuang's vague figure suddenly stopped dozens of meters in front of the pale yellow tent, looking at the tent, his face showed a sad color.
He felt an aura of familiarity.
Laughter sounded in the big tent, and as soon as the tent door was opened, an old man dressed in royal clothes walked out with his hands on his back, and behind him, a general with a helmet and armor, holding the hilt of a sword, followed behind the old man with a smile, which was the target of Wei Zhuang's trip, Cao Yun, the general of Qi State.
"Brother Wei, in less than a month, we will meet again!" The old man looked at Wei Zhuang with a smile, it was Cao Chong who confronted Wei Zhuang and the two in Luoying County.
Wei Zhuang shook his head, "Sure enough, it's still not good, I didn't have a lot of hope, but I didn't expect that you would be here." ”
Cao Chong laughed: "You won me in the last game, but I won you in this game." You shouldn't have come, Yue Guo is now at a loss, and the only trick that can be used is this trick that can't be put on the table, how can we not guard against it? ”
In the laughter, one torch after another was lit, and a group of soldiers came from the periphery to the middle, and in an instant, the three layers of the Chinese army's tent were surrounded by three layers of outer three, swords and guns were like a forest, and the cold light flashed under the reflection of the firelight, and the moonlight in the sky was also eclipsed at this moment.
Wei Zhuang took a deep breath, the whole person seemed to be slowly swelling up in the eyes of everyone, and in the blink of an eye, Wei Zhuang was actually fat by a large circle, and his hands were slowly raised, "Brother Cao, I have long wanted to meet you with the real chapter, today is your home field, can you teach me?" ”
Cao Chong looked at Wei Zhuang playfully: "Brother Wei, are you in such a hurry to die?" Now that you know this is my home turf, this battle is unfair to you. ”
"This is not a competition between rivers and lakes, but a battle between countries, how can it be fair? If I win against you, or maybe there's a chance to try to kill Cao Yun. Wei Zhuang said lightly.
"Brother Wei doesn't have to be like this. Even if you can really defeat me and then kill Cao Yun, our army will not stay at all. Cao Chong said: "This battle is imperative, and it will never be alleviated because of the gains and losses of one person, this is an opportunity that I have been looking forward to for many years, how can I give up halfway?" What's more, you are now in a state of decay, so how can you be my opponent? Besides, you just said that this is a national dispute, not a competition between the rivers and lakes, so why should I fight with you alone? At this moment, around us, in addition to Cao Yun, we also have ten ninth-level masters, how can you have a chance? ”
"If you don't want to fight me alone, what's the harm in going all together? It's good to be able to kill a few of your generals! A ninth-level master, even if you are in Qi Kingdom, it is not a green vegetable radish, right? Wei Zhuang said proudly.
"Why bother!" Cao Chong said with a smile: "Brother Wei, you are a grandmaster, you naturally have the bearing of a grandmaster, since you have lost, you have to admit defeat quickly." ”
"Even if I admit defeat, are you still willing to let me go?" Wei Zhuang Road.
"Of course, you can't let it go, but Brother Wei, as long as you admit defeat, you can go to our Daqi Chang'an to live for a year and a half, what do you think of this condition?" Cao Chong said with a smile: "When you arrive in Chang'an, with me by your side, you won't be lonely when you think about it, and we can have a good discussion at that time." ”
Wei Zhuang looked at Cao Chong and frowned, not knowing what Cao Chong's idea was.
"Brother Wei, contemporary martial arts master, the two of us are already at the pinnacle, apart from the two of us, only the old man holding the sword of Chu State can be called the opponent of you and me, people like us, there is no way to enter, do you often feel confused and don't know where to go?" Cao Chong slowly walked forward, until he walked in front of Wei Zhuang, and said, "Is it that we have reached the peak of the human race and can no longer take a step forward?" ”
"Of course not!" Wei Zhuang shook his head and said: "According to historical records, Emperor Li Qing back then far surpassed you and me. ”
"That's the truth. A thousand years have passed, and we can only trace the glorious style of Emperor Li Qing in the historical materials, but since the emperor was able to break through the shackles back then, why can't we? I've always wanted to invite you or the old man with a sword to get together in Chang'an, but I have never been able to make the trip. ”
Wei Zhuang narrowed his eyes, "Are you afraid that I will make a heart and burn jade?" ”
Cao Chong smiled: "Of course, you and I are crazy, how much damage is caused, we naturally all know, as you said, we are not many ninth-level masters of Daqi, but there are not many people who have such a high level of cultivation and can lead troops to fight, I don't want them to be injured like this, Brother Wei, for you and me, the rise and fall of the country is just a cloud, many relics of the emperor back then are now in Chang'an, you and I can refer to it together, maybe we can find a way." ”
Wei Zhuang smiled bitterly: "I have to say that the conditions you offered are indeed very attractive, it seems that I don't have the right to choose." ”
"Such an opportunity is not easy to come by." Cao Chong said with a smile.
