The Ugly Empress《丑娘娘》Chou Niang Niang
The Ugly Empress, Chapter 48, vol 2, Chapter 3: Good luck man
Feng Ming never knew that Zhao Lu would stick to people. In normal times, Zhao Lu always looks cold and behaves in a cold way. However, in these two days, he came to see himself when he was free.
Feng Ming thought it's because he's going to a battle. After all, he doesn't want him to fight. But in the Feng state, Feng Ming believes Zhao Lu unconditionally.
Zhao Lu still doesn't like to talk or show any feelings. He used to be the same, so Feng Ming didn't care. But Zhao Lu knew that he was a little uneasy. Now the two countries were at war, and this day will come.
Feng Ming recruited the Imperial court officials to discuss the strategy of sending troops. As they were talking about it. The Imperial court official Lu Shi said: “The Imperial court official is a scholar who only knew how to settle the people, and the meaning of marquis Zhao Lu should be seen when marching and fighting."
Zhao Lu looked at the map and ponders. It seemed that he is thinking. Every word he said now was very difficult. Every word seemed to be said with suffering.
Because every step he makes, with the element of deception, deceived Feng Ming and let him lose to Xue Jun Liang.
Zhao Lu said: “The Xue state itself is strong and powerful. Now Emperor Xue has taken over the Teng * * team, let alone underestimated it. On the surface, it seemed that we are in the downwind ... But when the Teng state’s brother went to prison and Emperor Teng went to prison, people will not agree with the other person. Emperor we can take advantage of this point. Starting from the Teng state, break the gap and occupy the Teng state, then two sides can attack the Xue state."
After all the people nodded, the Imperial court official Lu Shi said: “It's a good plan, but the Teng state is far away, and it's not easy to march there. How can we win the Teng state?"
Zhao Lu said: “The Teng state is now in a state of panic. You can send someone to spread rumors that Emperor Xue is going to cut the Marquis of Tengnan's neck, and remember that the Teng state killed the empress, and they want to retaliate by cutting the common person of the Teng state. In this way, the Teng state is in danger and has no time to fight. In this case, the Imperial court official asks for the ten thousand leading troops to be the vanguard, ride them to raid, disturb the hearts of the army, and let them open the city and surrender. "
When he finished, people all agreed with him. This was a good way. Feng Ming thought it was good. So they stopped at the Teng state. The Teng state had food and water, and they didn't have to start camp. Then the Feng state and the Teng state attacked on both sides. Xue Jun Liang would be in the middle. Even if it was difficult, it would be hard to care about it.
“Although it's reasonable, the Imperial court official is afraid that the Emperor Xue will send troops to conflict with Marquis Zhao Lu's back road. The back road is broken, so why will you not run out of food?"
Feng Ming said: "Zhen can send people to harass the Xue state in a fake way. In this way, Xue Jun Liang noticed that Marquis Zhao Lu could go to the Teng state freely."
Zhao Lu nodded, but sighed in his heart. Feng Ming believed in him so much and helped him to eliminate the danger.
They discussed the all-around plan together. Until it was dark, the Forbidden Palace Gate would be closed, and the Imperial court officials would disperse, and Zhao Lu would stay in the palace.
Although many people think that Zhao Lu climbed to the present official position by climbing the Dragon bed, they have to admit that no one can get out of his right hand and have to be admired because he is familiar with military books and marching and fighting.
Zhao Lu was about to go out in a short time, but he has suffered from Feng Ming. He has been tossed around repeatedly. Feng Ming used to be a military general. His physical strength is not bad naturally, but he is still unbearable after every romp in the sheets.
It's just that he never refuses Zhao Lu, even the wooden pimple of Imperial court official Lu Shi can be seen. There was a time when Feng Ming and Imperial court official Lu Shi discussed the reconstruction of the Shui river, ignoring Zhao Lu, and they were very happy. Zhao Lu didn't know that he had tasted attention before, and even kissed Feng Ming in the face of Imperial court official Lu Shi.
Feng Ming is more thoughtful than him. Zhao Lu is willing to be jealous of him. Of course, he is happy, but he is scared to be stupid. Imperial court official Lu Shi is a scholar himself. It is inevitable to be nitpicking. He has made a big red face. For a long time, he dare not look up at the two people. He always felt like he should avoid it.
It was nearly noon when Feng Ming woke up the next day. Rui Xue stood aside, his expression was not sure whether he was crying or laughing. He got up and quickly came to wait for him to wash, wash and dress.
Feng Ming's body aches. Although he has been used to this kind of thing, he is not an iron body. He can't bear it for several days.
“And your master?"
Rui Xue's mouth was a little shriveled. He said in a trembling voice, “The master said it's not late. This morning, he led the troops to the army."
Feng Ming was stunned for a moment, then he said with a smile: “What's the matter, I haven't been reluctant to give up, you just have to cry? Can't bear your master leaving?"
Rui Xue rubbed his eyes, “Maidservant, the maidservant is reluctant for you.”
Feng Ming said, “I believe he will come back safely. Zhao Lu has not lost a single war."
Hearing this, Rui Xue couldn't help but shed tears. Feng Ming thought that she was a little girl who had never seen the world of war. He comforted her a few words, gave her a holiday and asked her to go back to rest.
He didn't know. The reason that Rui Xue was crying is because Zhao Lu left. This time, he really left and won't come back. Zhao Lu felt Feng Ming's hair before he left. He gently told Rui Xue to serve Feng Ming. He said that there were no people around him, and only Rui Xue had a little more thought.
Zhao Lu put on his armor, looked at the direction of the Imperial Palace, ordered 10000 confidants, set up a big flag, wrote “the pioneer Zhao Lu", and sent troops to the Teng state.
Teng Yun led his troops to the Teng state to build the temple. The people heard the rumor that Xue Jun Liang wanted to kill the Marquis of Tengnan, but he was afraid that the people of the Teng state would make a mess, so as to eliminate the future troubles. Only the arrival of Teng Yun relieved their worries.
Local officials were also afraid of the prestige of Xue Jun Liang. Although they didn't want to contribute money, they helped Teng Yun build the temple together.
The three He Family brothers refused to accept Teng Yun at all, and threatened to kill only. They would rather die than work hard. Instead of forcing them, Teng Yun took his sleeves and built the temple with the soldiers.
In the eyes of the three He Family brothers, though still unconvinced, they no longer abuse Teng Yun.
The tycoons of the Teng state come to visit Teng Yun and help him build the temple with the money. Many refugees living in the temple or those who can't live in the local area have joined the army. In a few days, 20000 people have gathered to build the temple.
Although Teng Yun has been on the expedition, after all, the Teng state is his hometown. He knew exactly who is the honest official and who is the corrupt official.
Teng Yun took the three men of the He Family to these corrupt officials' houses and arrested their son and nephew and add them as soldiers. How could the officials want their younger generation to join the army? If they don't want to join the army, they have to pay for it.
Those who don't have sons will be arrested, saying that these brains were rebellious and must be beheaded. Otherwise, they will harm the country in the future. Of course, corrupt officials were afraid of death, so they can only bribe Teng Yun with silver money.
What Teng Yun wants is this effect. With the He Family three people, he can still control the market. In terms of Kung Fu, the guards in the family of corrupt officials can't beat the three He Family brothers at all, even if they want to be tough.
It soon spread to Xue Jun Liang. Several officials jointly accused Teng Yun of taking bribes and plundering people's wealth, which made the people in the Teng state miserable.
Just after Xue Jun Liang received the report, Teng Yun sent He Zhong to deliver the account book. Within three days, he collected more than 30000 soldiers, countless gold and silver, all of which were used as military pay.
Xue Jun Liang asked He Zhong, “Has Teng Ying ever embezzled?"
He Zhong scratched his head and said, “All the silver was moved by us. He didn't touch it."
Xue Jun Liang nodded and didn't say anything more or do anything to show him. He thought that since the other side dared to do so, there was a way to calm down naturally, and he didn't need to do more.
Teng Yun asked the spy to inquire about the news. He knew that Marquis Zhao Lu was the leader of 10000 soldiers. He was coming here. Teng Yun collected 30000 soldiers. He had food and grass to guard the Teng state. He had enough money. He was not afraid of anything.
However, most of the 30000 soldiers were recruits. If they go to the battlefield and have not been trained, they can't do anything. If they fight with Marquis Zhao Lu head-on, they won't win.
Teng Yun ordered people to dig pits and arrange traps, and sent the soldiers to the Zhi river to set up a boat and horse array to intercept Marquis Zhao Lu's army.
The elite soldiers of Zhao Lu's advance fell into the pit as expected, and were killed by the soldiers who were lying in ambush nearby. Although Marquis Zhao Lu's army was well-trained, it was hard to avoid panic. All the soldiers went out of the pit and turned their horses back to retreat.
Teng Yun didn’t let people go after them. He just kept guarding the Zhi river.
The He Family's three people can't wait for such a fight to stop. They want to go out and kill happily. Teng Yun sent three people to rob the stronghold in the middle of the night, harass the enemy and prevent Zhao Lu from building the camp.
Each of them led dozens of soldiers and horses to attack secretly from the flanks, but they didn't fight desperately. They just turned things around until the point was ordered. When the enemy saw few people, they came to chase them. As a result, they fell into the pit again in the dark.
He Zhong saw that the enemy was so stupid, and he was so complacent that he too fell into the pit. The horse broke his leg, and Zhao Lu caught up with him. He was about to kill him. He Ren transferred his horse back to stop Zhao Lu and asked the soldiers to rescue his brother from the pit.
Zhao Lu has been marching and fighting all his life. His abilities were not blown out. The attack between the two men was in stalemate.
Teng Yun saw that the three men have not come back. He asked people to investigate. The spy reports that the three generals were intercepted by Marquis Zhao Lu before the Zhi river and are fighting.
Teng Yun knew that it's not good. Let the soldiers on the Zhi river raise the open fire and beat the drum loudly to make the appearance of going to war. He took thirty elite cavalry to the shore to save people.
Back there, He Zhong just climbed out of the pit and rushed to fight Zhao Lu. Teng Yun ordered people to surround Zhao Lu, but he didn't dare to fight for a long time, for fear that the Feng state army would catch up with him. It would be difficult to deal with the situation if there were too many people.
They surrounded Zhao Lu and deliberately showed their flaws in their encirclement. They let Zhao Lu rush out of the breach and put his horse back to the camp. Teng Yun was not interested in fighting. When Zhao Lu left, he immediately returned to the Zhi river with his soldiers.
The military has its own documents to report these things to the capital. Xue Jun Liang asked Xue Hou Yang to come to see the report. Xue Hou Yang was shocked.
“This... This Imperial brother couldn't believe that if Teng Ying had such a talent, why would he help Teng Qian Yi set fire? "
Xue Jun Liang shook his head, too. “I don't understand."
Xue Hou Yang suddenly thought of something and said: “His majesty, Zhao Lu is the leader of the army. Although Teng Ying unexpectedly stops the enemy, it's not a long-term strategy. Once the enemy found out that all of Teng Ying's men are recruits, they will be brave enough to send troops. When the Teng state is still in crisis, it's better to send troops to support it, which can also reassure the people."
Xue Jun Liang suddenly laughed, shook his head, and said, "Just wait for Zhao Lu to return."
Xue Hou Yang doesn't know why, but Xue Jun Liang didn’t point it out. He doesn't know what to ask.
Teng Yun knew how much the Teng state weighs. It's too late to drill soldiers. Now Zhao Lu is on the north bank of the Zhi river, and he is on the south bank of The Zhi river. He can only delimit the border by water. Zhao Lu has not sent troops yet, which made Teng Yun a little afraid.
Teng Yun sat on the boat and looked at the other side, meditates on the countermeasures, and heard the voice of someone singing. A small boat went down the river, and the canvas is full of wind, coming to them.
The boat supporter is like the beggar, with a pot on the sail, singing and rowing. The soldiers on the boat saw a pole stabbing his boat and wanted to stop him.
But the beggar laughed, and with a flick of the bamboo pole, he put the long gun in the soldier's hand into the water and disappeared with a puff.
The three of the He Family saw that he was a trainee, and they took a spear to compete with the other person. As a result, before the spear touched the boat, He Zhong was hit in the chest by the broken pot and lay on his back for a long time.
That pot of black balls is full of fishy smell.
Teng Yun asked everyone to stop, and went to greet the man and said, “Does this hero want to join the army?"
The beggar smiled, “You little white face is smart?"
“This elder is just trying, but he doesn't try his best to show that he doesn't want to have the same understanding with us and has no hostility."
The beggar said: “Since you know this truth, why are you stationed in the Zhi river?"
Teng Yun was stunned and didn't understand what he meant. He said, “Please give me some advice."
The beggar said: "Zhao Lu has been staying in the north of the Zhi river for ten days. If he really wanted to attack and beat the Teng state, he must have already taken action. Now he only saw smoke from the kitchen and no drums, which means that Zhao Lu has no intention of sending troops. As you said, there is no hostility."
Teng Yun was justified by his saying, but Marquis Zhao Lu didn't come here to fight, did he still want to surrender?
The beggar said: “It's better for the general to put on a doubt and fight head-on. There is no reinforcements behind Zhao Lu. If he doesn't fight, you can cut off his food and grass. Will 30000 people still be afraid of him?"
After hearing this, Teng Yun was shocked. He came from a long way, but he made his own details clear. This made Teng Yun both surprised and pleased. He is a person who loves talents. He spoke in a clear way, and his kung fu is not weak. If he can accept his own use, it will be natural. If he can't, it will be a serious problem.
Teng Yun bowed down again and asked the man to sit in the town. The beggar didn't refuse after hearing this. He said with a smile, “The Marquis of Tengnan dislikes my ugly appearance. Teng Zhang Xun banished me from the city on the 30th. Unexpectedly, all of them are Teng’s, but they have different spirits."
At this time, the He Family three people chimed in and said, “Who are you called ugly? Do you look ugly? You're just smelly! "
Teng Yun, with a smile, respectfully invited the beggar to the boat and asked them to fetch water for him to wash.
Everyone didn't expect that the beggar was a beautiful man with extraordinary bearing.
He Zhong said, “You just said that Teng Ying is a little white face. I see that your face is whiter than his!"
The man smiled, "Unfortunately, my little white face just won the general by accident."
He Zhong was refuted with nothing to say. He blushed and shouted to fight him again. It was a mistake before.
Teng Yun always treated the other person with courtesy, and the man also moved, then said: “I'm Zhao Tong, the follower of Marquis Zhao Lu, Zhao Lu."
“Zhao Lu?”
The He Family's brother cried out. When he picked up his sword, he was going to kill Zhao Tong. Zhao Tong was not in a panic. He grabbed his long sword with his bare hands, shook the attack with his backhand, and put the sword straight to the sword sheath.
“Don't panic, general. I'm here to represent Marquis Zhao Lu."
He Zhong said, “Ghosts believe you!"
Zhao Tong took out a letter from his bosom, which was written by Zhao Lu himself. It said that he was originally from the Xue state. Because of the kindness of Emperor Xue, he was willing to leave his hometown and go to the Feng state to help Emperor Xue find information.
This was written by Zhao Lu when he left the Xue state. It was stamped with the seal of Xue Jun Liang, so as not prevent his soldier from killing the other person in the future.
It's just that Zhao Lu didn't expect that he just sneaked into the barracks and was promoted to the general all the way. Feng Ming took him to the palace and finally transformed himself into Lord Marquis, who was more than ten thousand people under one person.
At this time, it is even more difficult for Marquis Zhao Lu to get out.
Now Feng Ming sends his men to attack the Feng state, and Zhao Lu orders his trusted soldiers to join him.
After reading the letter, Teng Yun could not help shaking his hands. He never thought that Xue Jun Liang had such a deep mind and set up such a long ambush. Even the marvelous Marquis Zhao Lu of the Feng state was also the person of Xue Jun Liang, which he could not imagine.
Teng Yun can't help thinking that if one day, Xue Jun Liang realized something, knew that he was not Teng Ying at all, knew that the dead empress had been changed all the time, and what kind of end he would be, he couldn't understand Xue Jun Liang completely.
The next day, Teng Yun took Zhao Tong with him and asked the three of the He Family’s brothers to sit on the water bank of Zhi river. They went to meet Zhao Lu in person.
Zhao Lu had received the signal for a long time. He had already arranged his troops and horses. Ten thousand people stood in good order. They put all their swords, guns, swords and halberds on the ground beside their feet. None of them had a weapon in their hand to show their sincerity.
Zhao Tong met his master. Zhao Lu shook his hand, put his long gun on the ground, took off his helmet, hung it on the head of the gun, and led the people back to the ground.
The event of Zhao Lu's surrender shocked the whole nation, and people talked about it. Some people called Zhao Lu treacherous, some people splashed dirty water on him. At first, the Imperial court official Lu Shi didn't believe it, and let people come to investigate, only saw the silver gun and helmet inserted on the ground.
So the spy brought the long gun and helmet of Marquis Zhao Lu back to the Feng State. No one could not believe it anymore. Imperial court official Lu Shi respected Zhao Lu all the time and staggered a few steps with shock on the spot.
In a few days, someone asked to see Zhao Lu. It was Rui Xue, who came here. Rui Xue carried something on his back, and it was a broken guqin. There was dried blood on it.
Rui Xue said: "Lord... Lord Marquis's house has been slandered. The accusation is heinous. Someone caught his subordinates and wanted to behead them. Minister Lu Shi let me go out of the city and let me come to see the Lord with this guqin. "
Zhao Lu's outstretched hand trembled a little, gently stroking the broken string and the body of the guqin, without speaking.
Rui Xue cried, “Won't you ask about Emperor Feng?"
“Oh... How is he? "
Rui Xue choked, “Emperor Feng subordinates can only say... It can only be said that he is still alive.”
Teng Yun is wary of Zhao Lu's surrender. So let people come to inquire about the news. It's no wonder that the Feng state suddenly came to him. It's no wonder that Teng Yun is suspicious.
He didn't expect to hear that.
Teng Yun sighed. He had heard about the relationship between Zhao Lu and Feng Ming. Although he didn't understand why there was such a relationship between men, looking at the appearance of Rui Xue, sadness didn't come out as a disguise. Maybe everything was just artificial.
