Section 6 War

Half an hour later, the waiter brought hot food and wine, so he stood by the window and watched.

Soon, the officials who had been waiting for a long time under the scorching sun suddenly became energetic and the etiquette band played a joyful song.

A Jinjin Wang family carriage slowly came over with hundreds of Zheng army soldiers.

Bu Jingxian recognized four white-clothed men and women riding on the side of the carriage from afar, and the area was floating and flying. They were all disciples of the Shenjue Sect who practiced with Ling Luo at the top of Beiling Mountain. On the other side, the four horsemen were disciples of the Feixian Sect. They knew that they were indeed Ling Luo and Princess Tianlai.

But they could not see people in the carriage. Qiuye and the woman who was still holding Guruguo came into the carriage and the officials walked straight into the new city.

I came here a few days ago and said that the young master of the prefect of Xincheng told them that this time, the establishment of the Wanxia Sect had a good fortune and that a great nobleman would come.

Now Bu Jingxian guessed that the great nobleman must be Chu Gaoge, the eldest grandson of King Chu of Chu.

Chu Gaoge's reputation in the hearts of Chu people far exceeds that of his father, the current crown prince.

Today, the King of Chu originally had thirteen princes, and eleven of them died early. Chu Gaoge's father ranked ninth and had no talent for bravery, but fortunately, he had no mistakes or big flaws. Compared to the other brother of the king, he was still stronger. Therefore, he was always firm in his position as the crown prince.

After Chu Gaoge was born, the King of Chu was very happy at that time. He was a wise ruler. He knew that his two surviving sons had no hope, so he placed all his expectations on King Gaoge, the King of Chu. However, Chu Gaoge was extremely smart and talented since childhood, so he naturally won the favor of King of Chu. He even made the King of Chu lose his words after drinking, accusing Chu Gaoge's father of saying, "You have no talent or courage, but you have a dragon son. The throne will be passed on to you in the future, but for the prosperity of Chu, it is not you, but my eldest grandson of the king!"

Chu Gaoge will ascend the throne in the future, and everyone in Chu believes it without doubt. It is natural that he has a high reputation even though he is young.

Thinking of Chu Gaoge and the past, Bu Jingxian was in a state of emotion.

Ling Luo went to Chu State to embassy, ​​and Chu Gaoge personally greeted him at the gate of the new city.

The people of Chu knew that Ling Luo was the son of the Zuo Shuchang, the eldest disciple of the old man in Zheng, and the eldest brother of Chu Gaoge. They all welcomed each other enthusiastically. The new city was decorated with lights for several days, singing and dancing everywhere. Every day, whenever they heard Ling Luo and Chu Gaoge were traveling, the streets were crowded with people watching the fun. They all wanted to see Ling Luo and Chu Gaoge's majestic posture, and the appearance of Princess Tianlai, known as the number one beauty in Zheng.

However, Princess Tianlai always wears a veil, which makes many people in Chu feel disappointed.

Ling Luo and Chu Gaoge were together for three consecutive days. Others said that their brothers and brothers had a deep relationship. I believe that Zheng and Chu will definitely be able to be friendly together for a long time. But I don’t know what they are talking about.

After the dinner that day, Ling Luo and Chu Gaoge were alone in the study room, asking the person to retreat, and then guarded the person outside the door.

Chu Gaoge knew that this senior brother was finally going to talk about the main topic, so he answered it seriously.

"The second junior brother knows why I came to Chu?"

"I would like to ask my senior brother to hang out in Chudu for a while, but my senior brother said time was tight. I thought there was something big."

"South Korea betrayed Zheng State, ignored the peace of the alliance for many years, colluded with the Black Wolf Army, and used troops to our Zheng State. In fact, the Black Wolf Army and South Korea will definitely be defeated against Zheng State. Although this battle cannot be achieved in just a short time, my junior brother knows that the Black Wolf Army lacks food and money, and just South Korea is unable to supply it. Within half a year, the Black Wolf Army will inevitably run out of money and food."

Chu Gaoge nodded and said yes.

"Senior brother said it right. Although the Black Wolf Army soldiers are brave and brave, they are good at fighting. However, their foundation is not solid and they cannot withstand long-term consumption."

"However, the Black Wolf Army knew that the situation was so, but it took the initiative to launch a war. It would be incredible to say that they were just arrogant and arrogant and thought they could easily break Zhengdu."

"What my senior brother said is reasonable. The Black Wolf Army has the momentum today, and it is definitely not brave or resourceful."

"Therefore, the Black Wolf Army must hold on! One is that Chen State, Chen, and the new king Fangli, who valued the Tianji Chengzi of Tianji Sect as prime minister. And the junior brother knew that the Tianji Sect was very unique. Every heir of the sect leader must enter the world to experience it and use real great achievements as the qualification to inherit the sect leader. From this we can see that the left prime minister of Chen State must have great ambitions. Chen State is the richest powerful country in the world. If food and grass are provided, the Black Wolf Army will never worry about losing food!"

Chu Gaoge nodded repeatedly.

"Senior brother speculated that it was reasonable. Chen Guo had always been generous in providing food and grass, but he would never use troops to attack other countries."

"But this is still not enough. Zheng State is strong and well-known to everyone in the world. Even if the Black Wolf Army receives food and grass, it still has to face the problem of insufficient weapons. Chen State's military output is not enough to supply the needs of millions of lions of the Black Wolf Army, but Zheng State's national strength is enough to fight against the Black Wolf Army for five years. The Black Wolf Army will still be defeated."

Chu Gaoge still nodded and said yes.

"The Black Wolf Army has food, grass, no weapons, and at most it will not last for a year of attrition."

Ling Luo was apprehending tea and stared at Chu Gaoge closely and continued, "The only one who can supply the Black Wolf Army with enough weapons in the world is Chu!" After he said that, he took out the book from his sleeve and put it in front of Chu Gaoge. "The strength of Chu lies in the military power, with a strong army of 700,000. Even if Zheng has a strong army of 1.5 million, there is no chance of victory if it faces the 700,000 troops of Chu. The strength of Chu is not only 700,000 troops, but also lies in the ability of Chu to be self-sufficient. Regardless of food and grass, the military equipment is enough to support these 700,000 troops. However, in the past two years, Chu has been buying weapons for himself, Yan and Wei. But Chu itself has not expanded its troops in large quantities. Second junior brother, why do you tell your senior brother?"

Chu Gaoge did not open the book at all, and was stunned for a moment. Finally, he looked at Ling Luo with serious expression and said, "Senior brother, since he has been talking here, he dare not deal with it perfunctorily. After returning to the palace, he learned that the Black Wolf Army sent envoys to Chu two years ago. He discussed the alliance to attack Zheng, and promised that Zheng's land was divided into three parts of Chu, two parts of Wei, one part of Han, two parts of Yan, and two parts of Black Wolf Army. He was willing to take the lead in raising an army to restrain the Zheng army's main forces gathered in the southwest, west, and northwest to facilitate the advancement of Chu, Wei and Yan. The food and grass were supplied by Chen and the armour were supplied by Chu."

"My junior brother is so honest, I am very grateful."

"Senior brother should believe that my junior brother does not support this matter. Once the Black Wolf Army has land in Zheng, it will have a foundation for money and food. Even if Zheng is destroyed, its Black Wolf Army will become a more ambitious overlord than Zheng. However, at that time, both Wei and Yan had agreed that with the military nature of the Black Wolf Army, either friends or enemies, it would be very likely to change to Han, Chen's Struggle to attack Chu, and replace Chu in the alliance with Zheng. The situation at that time, and the promised interests were greatly concessions to the Prime Minister of Chu, so a verbal agreement was made."

Ling Luo listened quietly without interrupting him.

"It's still a difficult situation now. I have tried to dissuade me since my junior brother returned to the palace, so the weapons I promised to give to the Black Wolf Army have not been handed over yet."

Ling Luo nodded and smiled, "My junior brother really values ​​friendship, understands the overall situation, keeps his promises. Of course, the King of Chu will have difficulties in this matter, and I can tell you bluntly."

"The senior brother is good. If Chu assists Zheng, he is not afraid of being said to be capricious. At the beginning, it was just a verbal agreement. But it was difficult to explain to the soldiers. My junior brother had a plan for this. Senior brother would see if it was useful." After Chu Gaoge said that, he approached Ling Luo and whispered, "The Black Wolf Army cut off the arms supply from Chu and had no chance of winning, but he could still resist stubbornly, which would inevitably delay the war and would not be good for anyone. If Chu restrains Yan State and sends troops to attack Chen at the same time, so that Chen State's food and grass cannot be supplied to the Black Wolf Army, the war will definitely end in a short period of time."

Chu Gaoge made such a proposal, and it was obvious that Zheng State would not interfere with Chu and Chen as a condition to agree to turn against each other. Ling Luo weighed the pros and cons, and finally nodded with a smile, "Junior brother is indeed a good plan, I expected that Zheng King would also appreciate it. But the attack on Chen will inevitably have many obstacles, and Zheng State will definitely have no time to do its best..."

"Don't worry, senior brother, Chu will take on the great cause of the attack on Chen."

"In addition, there are also things that King Zheng told him before leaving. He had already explained to his junior brother in the letter. I wonder if there will be any results?"

Chu Gaoge looked ashamed. "Shame! It is true that the prince of Zhou was extremely careful in his actions. The junior brother investigated from many ways, and only knew that he had left the barbarian tribe in the border south, but there was no clue where he was now. But even if he had not yet entered Chu, his junior brother must have been attentive in this matter! The Zhou royal family has long been in name only, but now there is only a city, and the soldiers and horses of Zheng are guarding it. Now the Zhou emperor is in a daze, and no one can inherit the throne. No one in the Zhou royal family's successor is a good thing for Zheng, a good thing for Chu, and a good thing for all countries in the world. Don't say that the Chu State does not allow the prince of the Yue clan to return to Zhou State, even South Korea will never want to see the Yue clan return to Zhou State."
