Straightened up and saluted, Zheng Hao was honest with a face: "My lord has subordinates in Lujiang County, this has never been hidden, the two places have frequent transactions, how can there be no subordinates?" But Huan Jun, it would be ridiculous to say that those thieves who burned, killed and looted in Lujiang County were my lord. My lord doesn't want Huan Jun to control Lujiang County, but please Huan Jun think about it, isn't this an idea shared by all princes? Just as the princes do not want to see my lord happy in a county, with all kinds of calculations and persecutions. ”

Lu Zhe attaches great importance to business travel, first welcomes all counties to enter the southern county to trade, and then encourages the merchants in the county to go out to buy and sell, and the surrounding counties are naturally aware of this.

"Why, the thieves who are attacking everywhere have nothing to do with your lord?" This time it was replaced by Huan Chu's mockery.

"Yes, there are three of my lord's men." Zheng Hao didn't have an apology on his face, more of a matter of course, "If there is a chance, I guess Huan Jun will do it too, right?" ”

Of course you do, you would be foolish not to do that. However, Huan Chu would not admit it, he asked, "Are there only three?" ”

Zheng Hao nodded: "There are only three." My lord has generously confessed it, but how can he be deceived again? ”

"Don't you say that it was a counterattack in retaliation for someone who made things difficult for the merchants of Nanjun!?" Huan Chu's mocking expression was very hideous.

"Huan Jun is too clear, it is precisely because of Shang Jia's accident, in order not to bother Huan Jun......" Zheng Hao's words were truncated by Huan Chu's case.

Patting the case, Huan Chu roared: "One will tell each other frankly, and the other will talk nonsense, are you insulting me!" ”

"Okay. Stir up the situation and fish in troubled waters. Zheng Hao raised his arm and pointed to the east: "Hasn't the Xiang family always done this?" ”

The Xiang family restored Chu and established Xiong Xin as the king of Chu, and Huan Chu also received the so-called notice. He knew better that the Xiang clan had been plotting against Lu Zhe. This time, Lu Zhe's re-dispatch of troops to Hengshan County was precisely calculated, otherwise with his understanding of Lu Zhe, Lu Zhe would not have expanded at all before he did not stabilize Nanjun and Qianzhong County.

Who doesn't know that Lu Zhe started with the bones of the Baiyue barbarians, which is destined to be tied to Baiyue, and he is always ready to deal with the revenge of the Baiyue people, and the continuous increase of troops to Qianzhong County proves this?

Compared with Lu Zhe, the Xiang clan has the strongest desire for expansion in the south, especially after supporting the Xiongxin and recovering Chu, expansion has become inevitable, otherwise only the new Chu of the two armies of Huizhang and Huiji is considered to be a Chu state.

"Xiang's ......" Huan Chu has been drying Xiang Bo for three days, and the reason why he didn't see Xiang Bo is that he didn't think about how to deal with the restoration of Chu: "Among the thieves who attacked the counties everywhere, were assigned by the Xiang family?" ”

Zheng Hao nodded: "I am under my lord's command." Not a subordinate of the Xiang family. How do you know if Xiang has made a move? Without waiting for Huan Chu to change the expression on his face, he laughed twice: "Xiang's Xiang Uncle is wandering around Lujiang County, who knows what tricks he wants to do?" ”

didn't get an interview, Xiang Bo was really moving around, he wanted to contact more people, let these people exert influence on Huan Chu, and let Huan Chu meet him quickly.

Huan Chu naturally knew Xiang Bo's whereabouts, and in order to achieve the purpose of delaying, he did not restrict at all, but only sent people to monitor him.

People are most afraid of association, and originally simple things will become complicated with association. Xiang Bo saw that Huan Chu's subordinates could not be said to be a taboo now, after all, whether it was the Spring and Autumn Period or the Warring States Period, even if the two armies were fighting, it was a normal situation for friends to move around among the armies. But. Now that Zheng Hao said that, why did Huan Chu feel a little empty?

"Huanjun, what my lord wants to do is always above board, and this is true for Changsha County. This is especially true for Huanjun. Zheng Hao watched Huan Chu's face change constantly, adding fuel to the fire: "Some people are not like my lord, they have been planning for a long time. Who knows what is in mind. ”

"Changsha County ......" Huan Chu's face was ugly, "Your lord is deliberately controlling Wu Rui's logistics, which is also called being above board?" ”

"Why not?" Zheng Hao asked rhetorically: "Wu Junshou lacks military funds, and my lord gave it to him." Wu Junshou lacks weapons, and my lord trades them. Each side takes what they need, builds trust with each other, and then the two sides reach an alliance. After becoming an ally, our lord did not enter Changsha County without a single soldier, and he asked for permission from the Wu County Guard. Let me ask, what is not invited by the Wu County Detention Center? ”

That's the thing, but Wu Rui can't get out of Lu Zhe's logistics, what's the difference between this and a puppet? Huan Chu knew that he was off topic, but he didn't spit out some words unpleasantly: "Wu Junshou? Hehe! Your lord already regards Wu Rui as the governor of the next county? See! This is what Wu Rui believes you will do. ”

"Without the support of my lord, can Wu Junshou get most of Changsha County? Without the help of our lord, Wu Junshou was able to resist the Lian clan and the Huang clan...... A joint attack of the four clans? Zheng Hao said louder and louder: "If it weren't for my lord, Wu Junshou would have been defeated long ago." If it weren't for my lord, Changsha County would probably be starving all over the wilderness......"

Huan Chu knew that those were the truth, but he couldn't change the fact that Lu Zhe used methods.

What everyone raises the flag for, it is nothing more than wealth and nobility, no one wants to be left behind, everyone thinks that they will go to glory, and no one is willing to make wedding dresses for others.

Why don't you see Uncle Xiang, why have you been struggling to develop? Huan Chu asked himself, if he can stand on his own, who would like to be someone else's dog and horse!

"Huan Jun may also have misunderstood. My lord and Wu Junshou are allies, not subordinates. Our lord has sent Dr. Yan Pi to Changsha to reaffirm the covenant of mutual help one step closer. If Wu Junshou agrees, then Nanjun, Hengshan County, Cangwu County, and Changsha County will form an offensive and defensive alliance from then on. Zheng Hao was waiting for Huan Chu to ask.

Sure enough, Huan Chu was very interested in the four words "offensive and defensive alliance" and pursued what it meant.

"In wartime, they attack or defend each other jointly. This is the original word of my Lord. Zheng Hao replied very simply.

Just kidding! Now how can there be any wartime and no war, where is not the war everywhere, Huan Chu insisted that it was just another trick of Lu Zhe devouring Changsha County.

Zheng Hao didn't care when he saw Huan Chu's sarcastic expression, he slowly stood up, "Doctor Yan Bi will come to Lujiang County in a while." Dr. Yan Bi is a person who is reused by my lord, not a person who can be compared to Hao. Saying that, he bowed, "If Huan Jun allows, Hao will retreat first?" ”

Huan Chu, who had a little messy head, didn't speak, quietly looked at Zheng Hao, who was still in charge, and nodded for a long time.

Compared to Xiang Shi. Lu Zhe's expansion was full of confusion, at least what Huan Chu found after careful comparison.

The same is expansion, Lu Zhe didn't make any big moves, as if he had already thrown Wu Rui from Changsha County into the hub, and it seemed that as Zheng Hao said, Lu Zhe did not force Wu Rui to accept it, but Wu Rui walked in willingly.

Lujiang County also lacked food and clothing, and even said that the shortage of weapons for the soldiers was very large, otherwise Huan Chu would not have exchanged it for the public. He knows very well what Lu Zhe is playing, what is an alliance? It is just a slow cannibalization, and the result is inseparable from the fate of becoming one. It's just that the process is not so vigorous.

Each force has its own spies, and Huan Chu in Lujiang County is no exception, after the Xiang clan restored the state of Chu, he had already used Xiong Xin's name to make a wish to win over many people, and some unwilling people were killed by assassins and then replaced by subordinates.

It's too contrasting, one side is to use benefits to win over, and the means are mild, not to mention, and give people a feeling that they will not be angry even if they react and know that they are fooled; The other party is a unilateral request for donation, and if you don't don't dedicate, you will have to worry about your life, and you may be scolded by the name of righteousness.

The state of Qin gathered 300,000 troops in Sanchuan County. Everyone knows that a big war is about to break out, and Huan Chu will not stay out of the matter as long as Qin has a move, but it is a pity that he did not control the whole county early and lost the opportunity for development, and he is destined to need to get closer to one side to survive.

If there is no Lu Zhe to control the three counties. In fact, there is no good choice in the south, even if it is clear that Xinchu is just a trick played by the Xiang family, it has to be accepted. However, Lu Zhe owns three counties and has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and it seems that Lu Zhe has sufficient wealth and sufficient grain, which is not the dilemma of Xinchu that needs to be dedicated to everything. So. How you make your choice becomes the key.

What kind of anger, what accusation, if Huan Chu is really angry, he only needs to send Zheng Hao's head to chop off. How can you shout to question, how can you ask Zheng Hao to write back to Nanjun.

There is no stupid person who can rise from one side, Wu Rui of Changsha County must have discovered Lu Zhe's conspiracy a long time ago, Huan Chu suddenly wanted to meet Wu Rui, and asked Wu Rui in person why he did not stop Lu Zhe's infiltration.

"Where is Uncle Xiang now?" Huan Chu called someone to ask.

The person replied: "I just turned back from Luling." ”

Huan Chu commanded: "Invite him." ”

Some things are not a way to drag on, listen to what Uncle Xiang has to say, Huan Chu should make up his mind as soon as possible.

Xiang Bo came quickly, and when he entered the door, he raised his arms and held a plate, and shouted: "Brother Huan, congratulations, it's really a great joy." ”

According to the routine, Huan Chu should be confused and ask rhetorically, "Where does the joy come from?" But he was really not interested, he just looked at Uncle Xiang with a smile.

didn't get a reaction, Xiang Bo's face remained unchanged, and he was still congratulated, and then said: "Your Majesty has given the lord Shangzhu Kingdom, and Brother Huan is the second general, what a great joy!" ”

The second general, the state of Chu is second only to the general, and it is indeed a high position, but Huan Chu only frowned, and he lacked any joy at all.

Xiang Bo, who has been walking everywhere as a lobbyist for a long time, knows how to observe words and feelings, he can only act as if he didn't see Huan Chu frowning, and when he wants to get closer, he doesn't care if he is blocked by the samurai, and slowly lowers the plate, holding the silk cloth in one hand and picking it up in the other, and there is a jue seal and a half-copper fish-shaped general on the plate.

Huan Chu glanced at the seal on the plate and the general charm on the layout, and asked coldly: "Give the title of general, dare to ask the envoy, what does Chu need to pay?" Is it the territory under the rule, the army in the hand, or the life of the family? Without waiting for Uncle Xiang to speak, he said: "Sacrifice the territory, the army, and your life, is it your majesty or the Xiang clan who are serving?" ”

It was too intense, Huan Chu's attitude was really unimaginable, and Xiang Bo was stunned. (To be continued......)
