Chapter 180: Let Your Hero Die Well (II)

On the 15th day of September of the 16th year of the reign of the Emperor

Wu Shu fought for three months, and during these three months, both sides suffered losses.

But with the passage of time, the cheap use of firearms, and the long-term logistical pressure, the Wu and Chu armies began to feel unbearable.

Wu Wang's Palace.Bedroom

Suddenly, Wu Wang Wei Yue sat up violently, his eyes were wide open, and his heart was confused, and after a while, he woke up and found that he was still in bed, and when he touched his body, he was in a cold sweat.

But he woke up from a nightmare, in which after he was defeated by Wang Hongyi, not only was the whole army annihilated, but he also died in a foreign land. The reality of this dream made him still scared when he woke up.

"Come on, I'm going to take a bath!" shouted outside, and Wei Yue lay down.

He was the only one on the gorgeous and spacious bed.

In the past, he would summon one or two beautiful waiters to sleep with him, but in the past two days, he has nightmares almost every night, yesterday he just strangled one to death, and today Suo xìng does not call people to sleep.

After all, the matter of strangling Deadpool NV is not a glorious thing.

There was movement, and several vigil palace NVs hurriedly came over to wait, and after hearing the order, they went to prepare the bath water.

A moment later, the large steaming barrel was carried into the outer chamber.

"Your Majesty, hot water has been prepared. A waiter walked up to the bedroom and said softly.

"Yes. With a slight snort, Wei Yue walked out of it barefoot with only his underwear.

Several young and beautiful waiters gently served him and took off his clothes, Wei Yue stepped into the huge wooden barrel, slowly closed his eyes in the hot water sprinkled with calming grass, and sighed comfortably.

"Go down first, for the king will not let you in, but will wait outside. ”

"No. After a pause in the gentle wiping of his little hands behind his back, a few attendants obediently withdrew, covering up Mén.

Leaning against the edge of the barrel, Wei Yue closed his eyes, recalling the nightmares of the past two days.

Because he had seen many warlocks in the rivers and lakes, and there were also monks under his tent, Wei Yue understood some things in the dark.

The dreams he had for several nights made him feel uneasy.

Soaking in hot water, the tense muscles slowly relaxed, but there was always a knot in my heart.

"Respect the destiny of heaven and do your best, otherwise what do you want people to do?" Wei Yue thought like this, and half an hour later, several palace nv knelt or stood busily dressing Wei Yue.

After changing clothes, he walked out of the room where he was staying.

"According to yesterday's dish, send the food to the study for this king. This king has breakfast in front of him today. Turning around, he gave instructions to the attendant who came out, and Wei Yue started and walked forward.

King Wu's residence in Gangneung is a very large private residence, originally the manor of Zheng Pingyuan, while offering Gangneung, it will also be located in Gangneung County This manor is also offered, because the repair is very elegant and spacious, after entering Gangneung, King Wu and his henchmen live here.

At the back was his well-guarded residence, in the middle of which was his office, and in front of him was the residence of his henchmen and staff.

As soon as he walked out of his courtyard, he was ready to take advantage of the public opinion, but Wei Yue waved his hand and refused: "This king will not take the public opinion today." ”

In the past two days, he was moody, even if it was his henchman, he didn't dare to speak at this time, so he just ordered people to follow him from a distance behind, and at the same time several personal soldiers followed left and right, faintly showing a protective posture.

Outside the large study was a very large room, with several tables, which was the place of the staff.

Walking further inside is a small study, elegantly furnished, this is the study of King Wu.

Naturally, this pattern will not be in the palace, and now it is a protracted war between the two armies, and in order to prevent delays in the warplane, some rules in the palace must be ignored.

At this time, it was already eight o'clock in the morning, and the staff and clerks were busy.

Suddenly, someone shouted outside: "His Royal Highness King Wu has arrived-"

Everyone immediately fell to the ground, and exclaimed: "Meet the king, Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

A person walked in from the outside, wearing civilian clothes, looking refreshing, but there was a faint urgency between his eyebrows and eyes.

"Get up. Wei Yue looked at these people in front of him and said lightly.

"Thank you, lord!" everyone stood up cautiously, but they didn't dare to say more.

Glancing at everyone, Wei Yue entered the room.

After a while, an attendant came out and announced: "Lord Ge Cunyige, the Lord declares that you go in and reply, and go with the slave and maid!"

Ge Cunyi's scribe, as a Zheng Liupin official, received some positions in the center, and often dealt with some trivial matters on weekdays, and was not summoned by Wei Yue once or twice, so he was not very flustered, tidied up his clothes, and followed the chamberlain in.

Between the large study and the small study, there is a straight corridor connected, and in the corridor, more than a dozen pro-soldiers stand there, motionless.

The waiter led in front, without saying a word, and after a short silence, the waiter was outside the small study, bowing back to the people inside.

Soon a voice came from inside: "Let him in." ”

"Master Ge, go in. The chamberlain said with a smile.

Arching his hand towards the other party, Ge Cunyi pushed Mén in.

"Minister, Ge Cunyi, I have seen the lord. As a courtier, he always abides by etiquette, even if he has already bowed once just now, after being summoned alone, Ge Cunyi still bowed again.

"Ge Qing, this king summoned you this time to ask you something. Wei Yue stood up in the room, walking back and forth, obviously not in a very good mood: "Qian Shaoming, who went back to Jinling with you last time, do you have any news of him?"

Although Qian Shaoming is a small person, for such a long time, there has been no news back, and at this time, Wei Yue rarely cares.

Unexpectedly, King Wu specially summoned him, and he actually asked such a small person, and Ge Cunyi's forehead suddenly sweated.

Where did he ever think of paying attention to a warlock in the rivers and lakes, who was just a cloth cloth, and had no background and talent, just used the so-called hope to muddle the lowly people of the superiors, why did King Wu suddenly ask about this person?

Thinking of this, Ge Cunyi replied truthfully: "Lord Qi, Qian Shaoming has never contacted the minister since he got off the boat. ”

"So, he didn't come back with you on the boat?" Wei Yue's brows furrowed even tighter.

After a moment of silence, he waved his hand to order Ge Cunyi to go down.

After a while, the chamberlain came out again and came to the large study outside.

This time, however, he was here to call someone else.

"Cheng Yushi, it turns out that you are here, save the slave and maid and run away, the lord asked you to go in and reply, go with the slave and maid. Cheng Yushi, who had just come in from outside and was about to ask for an audience, immediately followed as soon as he heard this.

This imperial history is not the official position of the imperial history platform, but the "embroidered imperial history"

Embroidered clothes, holding tiger talismans, using military law, "embroidered clothes and imperial history", is actually an intelligence organization, and the xìng quality of the thirteen divisions is exactly the same.

Still walking through the corridor, facing the "Embroidered Imperial History" in power, the chamberlain said a few words halfway, vaguely reminding that His Royal Highness King Wu was in a bad mood and asked the other party to deal with it carefully.

Cheng Yushi nodded, did not speak, but did not snub either, although this eunuch has no real power, he cannot be offended.

After getting the permission of King Wu, Cheng Yushi Mai stepped inside, bowed to the ground and kowtowed: "I have seen the lord." ”

"Aiqing, no courtesy, flat body. Wei Yue's tone was much slower than just now, and he said gently.

"Thank you, Lord. ”

"Aiqing came so quickly, but something came to see this king?"

Cheng Yushi and the embroidery organization are huge in Wudi, but in Jingzhou, they are still new.

"The lord of Qi, the minister has received an urgent information, and he will report to the lord quickly. Cheng Yushi said upward.

"Oh?" Wei Yue's face remained unchanged, but his eyes narrowed: "What is the information?"

"No. ”

Cheng Yushi told Wei Yue about the news he had just gotten.

"Lord, according to the minister's spy news, now Shangyong, Xiangyang, Nanyang and other counties have been organized into an army, counting the Shu soldiers brought by the Shu lord, the total strength has reached more than 100,000, and now they are stepping up the issuance of weapons, and there is a tendency to gather troops to attack Jiangling by land. ”

The mobilization of the 100,000 troops of the Shu army, the movement will never be small, it cannot be concealed, in fact, it reached the ears of Wu Jun not long ago, and now it is only a positive description.

An army of 100,000 is by no means 10,000, which has an almost absolute impact on the battle situation.

Wei Yue listened, but instead remained silent and walked in the room, at this time, a gust of wind blew in the courtyard, and there was a faint autumn cold.

In the wind, Wei Yue broke the silence: "Have you checked this matter repeatedly?"

"How dare the minister be sloppy in this big matter?" Cheng Yushi bowed his head and said: "Each county has raised 100,000 troops, this movement is really not small, and the news obtained has been repeatedly verified. ”

"Lord, although our army has the upper hand, but from the land alone, the 100,000 Shu army is overwhelmed, and I am afraid that the battle situation will change suddenly......" In the latter words, Cheng Yushi couldn't say it anymore.

He is a "embroidered imperial history", not a court official who advises, since ancient times, it has always been taboo for intelligence officers to interfere in political affairs, so he said this half sentence, and the face of King Wu in front of him had sunk, so he hurriedly closed his mouth.

"What kind of words are you like like this?" Wei Yue shouted angrily.

After shouting angrily, his heart calmed down: "This king, this king already knows, you don't have to panic, continue to spy on the military situation!"

"It's the minister's gaffe. Cheng Yushi immediately bowed down and said.

Exhaled, asked again, and seeing that the other party had nothing else to do, Wei Yue waved his hand and ordered him to retreat.

He called in and commanded, "Go, prepare paper and ink for this king." ”

Wei Yue wanted to immediately send Zheng Pingyuan a handwritten letter, summoning him to come here quickly and conspire with him in the war, but now this situation is no longer the pattern imagined at the beginning.

Jiangling City has now lost its pivot and defended it, and now it has transported 20,000 Wu troops to defend the city, but it is difficult to defeat 100,000 troops, especially the other party has a siege weapon.

It feels like a quagmire.

The waiter didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly went to the table on the side to spread out the paper, and began to study the ink skillfully.

Wei Yue pondered the words for a while, and quickly wrote the secret letter.

After sealing it, a guard was called in, and the letter was quickly sent and presented to Zheng Pingyuan by hand.
