Lu Zhaogong was sent to Yuncheng by the Qi people to live in peace, Zijiajian has been persuading him to go to the Jin Kingdom, but Lu Zhaogong does not know what magic was cast by the Qi people, and stubbornly believes that the Qi Hou will send him back to Qufu; But after the Qi people withdrew their troops, there was no follow-up.

Sanhuan sent some belongings from time to time to show that he did not dare to forget the monarch. In fact, Lu Zhaogong's life in Yuncheng is similar to that in Qufu - he doesn't have much land anyway, and he lives on the worship of Sanhuan.

In the spring of that year, Lu Zhao'an couldn't bear the eagerness and ran to Linzi again. He was nominally going to visit Qi Jinggong, but in fact he was reminding him not to forget his promise. Qi Jinggong made a guarantee to him like last year, and Lu Zhaogong got a response, and he was worried about the safety of Yuncheng, so he rushed back as soon as possible.

In the autumn, Jin Shiying, Song Leqi, Weibei Gongxi and Cao, Di, and Teng held an alliance meeting in Hudi. The alliance has two contents: one is to help King Jing of Zhou defend Cheng Zhou in case of a comeback of the prince dynasty (the henchmen of the prince dynasty still occupy several border towns); The second is whether to return Lu Zhaogong to his original position.

The Song and Wei people went on a blind date with Lu Zhaogong, and the two countries insisted on helping Lu Zhaogong to restore the throne. But Shi Ying, this person is even more greedy than Liang Qiuju - Liang Qiuju only passively accepts bribes, but he dares to take the initiative to ask for bribes. Shi Ying had secretly sent his cronies to meet Ji Pingzi in advance and leaked the agenda of the meeting to him.

Ji Pingzi opened a huge gift list and handed it to the visitor, and Shi Ying was overjoyed when he received the gift list. So he replied to the envoys of Song and Wei at the meeting: "Lu Hou did not announce Ji Sun's crimes and attacked him; Ji Sun did not know what was committed, and asked for imprisonment and exile without permission. Uncle Sun and Meng Sun were afraid of the expansion of the turmoil, so they helped Ji Sun; The people of the country also spontaneously protected him. Ji Sun won the victory without defense, and it can only be said that the heavens and the people are on his side.

"Lu Hou did not defeat the countrymen, so he 'self-exiled'. Zijiajian asked Lu Hou to stay in China, and his uncle Sun Wan also asked Lu Guo to return to China, but he refused. Therefore, Lu Hou was actively exiled, and there was no expulsion by Sanhuan. Lu Hou stayed in Qi for three years but achieved nothing (this sentence is sour), and Ji Sun won the hearts of the people, and even Huaiyi supported him.

"Ji Sun has ten years of reserves, with Qi and Chu as backups (Qi is a recognition of Ji Sun's delay), with God's patronage, the support of the countrymen, and the confidence to stick to it, he regularly sends it to Luhou for worship, and serves the monarch as before (still so disrespectful).

Lu Hou did not express his position, nor did he ask the widow; He did not even send envoys to Song and Wei; No one knows what he thinks. For the above reasons, although I agree with what the second master said, I feel very embarrassed. But in order to fulfill the wish of the two sons, I please follow the two to surround Qufu, if it doesn't work out, we have to commit suicide to apologize! ”

Only then did the two understand that Shi Yan had been bought by Ji Sun, and they didn't dare to continue to ask, so they had to say: "Don't dare." "Turn around and quit.

This alliance was a key event in determining the fate of Lu Zhaogong; Because Lu Zhaogong did not follow the advice of Zijiajian (asking him to ask for help from the Jin people), he did not recognize the reality that "only the Jin people can help themselves", and always thought that the truth was on his side, and as a result, Ji Pingzi occupied Tianwang Mountain first. After this alliance meeting, Lu Zhaogong completely lost the possibility of resetting.

Ji Pingzi was overjoyed when he heard the news, he now had no scruples, so he decided to continue to recover Yuncheng in the name of the "people", completely drive Lu Zhaogong out of the country of Lu, and erase it from the hearts of the people. At the beginning of September, Ji Pingzi ordered Meng Yizi and Yang Hu to attack Yuncheng (Meng Yizi was still young, only the nominal commander-in-chief, but the actual commander-in-chief was Yanghu).

The Yun people were about to fight, but Zijiajian disagreed, and his opinion was to take the initiative to abandon Yuncheng and flee to the Jin Kingdom; Because he thought that Lu Zhaogong could get up from the place where he fell. But Lu Zhaogong still refused, he still fantasized that the people of Qi would not sit idly by and ignore his situation, and Gongyan, Gongwei and others around him also clamored to let "the traitors have no return".

Zijiajian said angrily: "It's been a long time since the Mandate of Heaven has not been here with the prince!" In the end, it was these people who made the prince flee (he pointed to Gongwei and others)! Heaven sends calamity, but they think they are blessings, and they don't know the blessings and misfortunes, how can they not fail? ”

Gong Wei was furious, shook his sleeves and drew his sword and rushed up. Lu Zhaogong was fed up with the endless quarrels of the courtiers, he first blasted the prince out, and then said to the son's family: "Since the master always wants to ask for help from the people of the Jin Kingdom, then invite the master to go to the Jin Kingdom for a hard trip!" "Zijiajian was happy to stay away from those fools, and set off that night.

Gongwei decided to block the Sanhuan army at the Hezhi fortress on the outskirts of Yuncheng. This was the first time that Yang Hu had commanded a battle independently, and his status in Ji Sun's family at this time could already rank in the top five, but there was still a long way to go before the position of the old man, so he urgently needed to establish meritorious service to improve his status.

Yang Hu was born with a Rakshasa appearance, and was known for his courage and ferocity, and his courage in battle; Usually no one would be crazy enough to fight him head-on. With this in mind, Yang Hu divided the army into two parts, he asked Meng Yizi to lead the main force and walk in front, and ordered his deputy Gongshan Bu to follow behind with his spare battle flag, while he himself hid in the main force.

After the Sanhuan army arrived at the periphery of the fortress, Yang Hu ordered the main force to line up in front, and ordered Gongshan to be stationed about ten miles away from the main force.

Gong Wei was a little surprised to see this formation, but he instantly thought that he had insight into Yang Hu's true intentions: "Yes, Yang Hu must have secretly received Ji Sun's order to get rid of Zhongsun He Ji, so he put on this formation." Heaven help me! This time, Meng Sun must not be allowed to return to the capital! ”

Gongwei gathered the Yuncheng army and led out of the fortress to line up the formation. The army was almost entirely infantry, with only a dozen or so old chariots (because they were poor, they couldn't afford to build chariots or buy horses). Gongwei demanded to concentrate on attacking Meng Yizi and ignore the "Yang Tiger", because the Yang Tiger would only watch from the sidelines and would never help the main force; He also announced that those who could get Meng Yizi would be crowned doctors, those who could get doctors would be crowned doctors, and those who could get sergeants would be rewarded with land and slaves. Sergeant Yuncheng was excited; Gongwei was the first to beat the drum, the sergeants launched a charge, and everyone fought bravely, wanting to catch Meng Yizi.

Meng Yizi then beat the drum, and the three Huan troops formed a dense formation and slowly advanced, and the two sides soon collided together. The Yuncheng army completely ignored the formation military order, desperately trying to tear open the gap and squeeze in; The Sanhuan army hid behind their shields and tried to resist the attack, the commanders ran around issuing various orders, and Chaoche raised the flag to ask for help from the "Yang Tiger". But the "Yang Tiger" turned a blind eye and kept moving. Gong was overjoyed, and then threw the reserve army into a frontal battle.

Someone in Meng Yizi's army suddenly shouted: "We have been betrayed!" "They couldn't support it this time, and the army began to retreat slowly, and the Yuncheng army continued to attack. After resisting for a while, the Sanhuan army turned around and ran wildly in an orderly manner, while the Yuncheng army followed closely behind.

Most of the defeated troops fled in formation, spreading out to the flanks as they fled; Meng Yizi's banner was like a big fish bleeding, attracting the attention of all the sharks behind him. The eyes of the pursuers were all fixed on Meng Yizi's banner, and they did not notice the change in the situation in front of them, and as a result, they gradually fell into the trap designed by Yang Hu.
