Chapter 91

"What King Su is simply unreasonable!"

"What does a fourteen-year-old child know?"

"He wants to seize power when the enemy is in front of him. He is so stupid!"

After leaving Zhao Hongrun's house, Pei Zhan, Zhao Zhun, Xu Youzhi, Chen Shi, Wang Shu and Ma Zhang first came to the house where they discussed major events in the past.

As soon as we arrived here, the two Wu Weiwei Wang Shu and Ma Zhang couldn't help but start cursing, while Chen Shi was silent.

After a long time, Zhao Zhun sighed and said, "Wang Wuwei, Ma Wuwei, what's the use of you two scolding each other? Then King Su has the sacred edict written by His Majesty himself, and I have to wait."

"If I had known this, it would have been better to just hand over the military power, which would have been better than Chen Wuwei being hated by King Su..." Xu Youzhi sighed.

The other five people remained silent when they heard this.

Yes, because the King Su was only fourteen years old, not only Chen Shi did not trust him and refused to hand over the military power in his hands, but even the other five people secretly supported him to do so. But who would have thought that King Su had the promise of Emperor Wei, which was far more effective than the court's documents.

"It's over, it's too late to say anything." Wu Wei Chen Shi sighed, turned to Wang Shu, Ma Zhang and others and said: "You two, when you are not in Yanling, I hope you can give more advice to the Highness of King Su. His thoughts now... determine the life and death of my Yanling."

Wang Shu and Ma Zhang looked at each other and nodded solemnly: "Brother Chen, don't worry, I will look at him... I'm afraid he won't listen."

"If you don't listen, you have to say it. For the sake of the present, this is the only way to do it." Chen Shi said seriously.

After a few simple discussions, Chen Shi said goodbye to them, ordered five thousand soldiers in the city, heading to the south bank of the upper reaches of the Yan River, and preparing to build a dam upstream.

These five thousand soldiers were numbers spoken by Zhao Hongrun, which in Chen Shi's opinion was extremely unwise.

You should know that Yanling currently has only more than 11,000 troops. However, because His Highness Su wanted to build a dam that had no use at all, he actually transferred nearly half of his troops to the upper reaches of the Yan River. Isn’t this seeking death?

But at this point, Chen Shi had no choice but to take the five thousand soldiers upstream to build a dam.

His movements were immediately discovered by the Chu army on the other side of the Yanshui River. After all, not only Yanling was paying attention to the Chu army on the other side, but the Chu army also paid attention to the trends of Yanling. Now Wu Wei Chen Shi led 5,000 soldiers to build a dam upstream, how could the Chu army not know?

"What? Chen Shi, the Wu Wei of Yanling, built a dam upstream?"

When the news reached the vanguard of the Chu army and the Chu Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu's ears, the Pingyu Jun, who was in his thirties, was really stunned for a while.

You know, although Chen Shi was just a Wu Wei from Yanling County, he had dealt with the Chu army several times, and the Chu army is currently blocked on the south bank of Yanshui because of this person.

Therefore, how could Xiong Hu, the Lord of Chu Pingyu, not know the truth about Chen Shi, the Martial Arts of Yanling.

"Did Chen Shi want to build a dam upstream and let our army flood when we force our army to cross the Yan River?"

Chu Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu had his confidant general in his tent. He laughed and mocked him when he heard the news, because in their opinion, Chen Shi's move was quite ignorant.

"How could Chen Shi... suddenly make such a foolish move?" Chu Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu was also a little puzzled. Because he had dealt several times, he also had some understanding of Chen Shi, knowing that the other party was a careful and meticulous person, although he would not do such a fool.

Suddenly, his heart moved and asked thoughtfully: "It is said... Ji Si (Zhao Yuan Si) had a son who arrived in Yanling a few days ago?"

"Yes, it's King Su Jirun (Zhao Hongrun)." A general curled his lips and said, "He is just a fourteen-year-old child... The child who is still stinking and still claims to be king. This Wei State is probably not far from the destruction of the country."

King Su Jirun…

Chu Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu paced back and forth in the tent, saying thoughtfully: "As far as I know, Chen Shi was the top beam of Yanling in the past, and he led the Wei army to fight our army... Therefore, he would not leave Yanling and Wugan for no reason, do you think Chen Shi was excluded by King Su Jirun?"

General Ugan pondered for a moment after hearing this, nodded and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is very likely. Ji Run is Ji Wei's son. He ran to the front line of Yanling at a young age, undoubtedly to repel our army... In this case, he will definitely take over the military power of Yanling. It is possible that Chen Shi refused to hand over the military power, so Ji Run simply sent him out..."

"Then...what does it mean to build a dam upstream?"

General Ugan said with a smile: "Since ancient times, wars have been mostly made with water and fire. Perhaps King Su Jirun also wants to do this?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the generals in the tent couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu also shook his head with a chuckle and sighed: "I don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick. I think I can repel tens of thousands of Chu army vanguards with one move? It seems that the prince of Wei is far inferior to my Chu state."

"But that's how our army has a chance." General Ugan blinked and asked, "Do you want to send some troops to the upstream to play with Chen Shi?"

Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu obviously heard the teasing tone of his beloved general and said with a smile: "What should he do?...If Chen Shi was really excluded by King Su Jirun, he couldn't wait to return to Yanling... Let's send troops to harass him to build a dam, keep the kid's dam and leave the dam, and go back to Yanling without saying a word... Finally, Yanling has a King Su Jirun and helped us. We are stupid... Let Chen Shi and the five thousand soldiers slowly build a dam upstream. When he builds a dam, our army has already crossed the Yan River."

"The same is true for the last general." General Ugan clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Yanling has lost five thousand soldiers and Chen Shi, but it is a great opportunity to attack..."

"Um." Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu nodded, suddenly touched his chin, and said maliciously: "No further ado, wait until I write a letter of Feng Zhan to that child and inspire him to fight me..."

Not long after, Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu wrote a letter of war, asking someone to shoot it to the other side with a bow and arrow. The Yanling soldiers patrolling the north bank of the Yanshui River were picked up and sent them back to Zhao Hongrun, the King of Su who was in Yanling.

In less than two hours, Zhao Hongrun received this letter from Chu Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu.

"Is this guy planning to incite His Highness to fight him?"

The clan guard Shen Yu and others stood behind Zhao Hongrun and looked at him with their heads open. When they saw the words in their hearts, they couldn't help but feel a little funny.

It turned out that Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu expressed his identity as a nobleman of the Xiong clan of Chu State, and planned to "confront" the bloodline of the Ji clan of Wei State, Zhao Hongrun, to see which of the two princes and nobles is better.

"After saying this, the intention is probably to let Your Highness Su let him go to Yanshui..." Zhang Ao, the chief of the sect, who had temporarily borrowed from Zhao Hongrun's brother Hongxuan, told the intention of Xiong Hu, Pingyu Jun.

Li Meng, who is also the ninth prince Hongxuan, smiled and said, "It seems that the age of His Highness Su has deceived many people."

The other guards smiled knowingly.

I think so, the sect guards in the house were either Zhao Hongrun's sect guards or Zhao Hongrun's younger brother Hongxuan's sect guards. They knew this Prince Su well. Only they knew that this Prince Su was a prince with a very high mind, except for the disguise of "only fourteen years old".

"The Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu, indeed, does not intend to attack Chen Shi in the upstream..." Zong Wei Wei sighed with admiration.

"How could he attack Chen Shi?" Zhao Hongrun smiled and pointed to the letter and said lightly: "See, he complimented me in the letter that although I was young, I had the power alone, which means he already knew that I had taken over Yanling... In this way, I guess that there are indeed spies from Chu in Yanling. I don't know if those spies from Chu were mixed among refugees or among the defeated defeated troops... How did I ask you to do what I did?"

Hearing this, the clan Gao Kuo smiled and said, "Your Highness, there is no need for us to take action at all. Wu Wei Chen Shi was driven upstream by Your Highness to build a dam. In Yanling City, everyone is privately stating that Your Highness is revenge..."

"Oh?" Zhao Hongrun smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as the purpose is achieved... Now, my Yanling has divided half of the troops and sent away the Wu Wei Chen Shi who is 'good at war'. Another arbitrary and stubborn King Su... I believe that the Chu army wants to cross the Yan River immediately and swallow Yanling in one bite..."

The sects smiled and smiled, with ridicule of some guys who accused King Su Zhao Hongrun of the unknown.

"Then this Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu..."

After looking at Zhao Hongrun, Zhongzhao asked in a low voice: "Does Your Highness want to fight?"

Zhao Hongrun thought for a while and said, "You can reply to me, be arrogant... As for his proposal, I will say that I don't trust him and only allow him to set up a floating bridge and send a thousand soldiers. At that time, I will also send a thousand soldiers... Just compete within the number of these thousand soldiers."

"Will the other party agree?" Sect Guard Fang Shuo said in wonderingly: "I guess that Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu would also be worried that the thousand people would be eaten by our army, right?"

Zhao Hongrun looked at the zong guard who borrowed from his younger brother and said with a smile: "If it were me, I would agree at once... The vanguard of the Chu army has 60,000 people. If the losses of a few thousand people can be exchanged for the fall of Yanling City, why not do it?... There is no doubt that at that time, Xiong Hu, the king of Pingyu, will never pay attention to his bet with me. As long as he is not a fool, he will ask the thousand soldiers to guard the floating bridge so that the Chu army on the south bank of Yanling can continue to go to the north bank along the floating bridge..."

"So that's it." Fang Shuo nodded suddenly.

"Mu Qing, go and call Pei Zhan, the county magistrate of Yanling, here... Try not to make a statement, I want to explain some things to him."

"yes!"
