Chapter 1226: Carrying on the Past and Opening up the Future (One Hundred and Sixteen) 1 Glass of Wine
A few soldiers carried tables and benches and walked out from the ranks of the Qin army. They walked straight to Changping City. When they were only a few hundred meters away from the outermost defensive position, they stopped and set up the tables and benches. Then he took out the plates one by one from the box he brought and arranged them.
After doing all this, these Qin soldiers walked back without any problems. This made Li Mingjun, who was commanding the frontline defense, puzzled. "What tricks are you planning to play?" he said to himself.
But after a moment, his eyes widened in shock, because the neat queue of the Qin army suddenly separated. A man dressed in white, with his hands behind his back, walked forward as if strolling in a leisurely courtyard. Li Mingjun was shocked. Because among other things, it was because he knew this man.
Lu Chao, the general of the Qin Army, is also the most powerful general in the Qin State today.
Lu Chao did not wear his general uniform, but casually dressed in casual clothes. He just walked to the table that had been set before and sat down.
"He seems to be waiting for someone?" Guo Fu whispered beside him.
Li Mingjun took a deep breath and said, "If you come, please report to the king immediately."
Guo Fu's words reminded him that Lu Chao was indeed waiting for someone, but it was not him who was waiting for him, but the King of the Han Dynasty, Gao Yuan. At this moment, Li Mingjun suddenly remembered the life experience of the King of the Han Dynasty, Gao Yuan, and some rumors about the Lu family. I couldn't help but shudder.
Soon Gao Yuan appeared next to Li Mingjun. Looking at Lu Chao in the center of the battlefield, Gao Yuan smiled and said: "Good guy. From this look, he is really a master in this world. All he needs is a feather fan."
"Your Majesty, you can't go." Behind him, Zhao Xilie also understood Lu Chao's intention, "This man is vicious and vicious, he may have some conspiracy!"
Gao Yuan smiled, "How can you not go? Of course you have to go. Although Lu Chao is a general, he is the kind of person who can command people to fight, but he can't hold a sword or a gun himself. Wherever he has the guts to sit, I Wouldn’t it be too cowardly not to go?”
"My lord, you are the king of the Han Dynasty." Cao Tianci also disagreed with Gao Yuan at all, "What nonsense is this nonsense? What kind of game does he think the confrontation between the two armies is?"
Gao Yuan rolled his eyes, "It's because the two armies are facing each other. If the other side draws a line, we have to accept it, otherwise, it will hurt the morale." The defeat of Lotte Creek has already reduced Zhao Jun's morale by 10%. If we lose again today, our morale will drop even lower.
Ignoring everyone's dissuasion, Gao Yuan waved his hand and walked straight out of the position. He strode outside. Leaving behind a group of men staring at each other.
"Guard Camp,
Everyone mounts their horses and prepares for battle. "He Lanyan did not dissuade her. She just let Su La lead her war horse. She turned over and sat on it, and slowly rode her horse to the edge of the defense line. From this distance, according to her estimation, something would really happen. With her own war horse, With his speed and skills, he can definitely reach Gao Yuan first.
Where is Lu Chao sitting? Looking at the oncoming Gao Yuan, he just pointed at the chair opposite.
Gao Yuan cupped his hands: "Brother, are you okay?"
Lu Chao stared at Gao Yuan, "I underestimated you after all. When we left Shannan County, I said you would be defeated soon, but I didn't expect that not only did you survive, but you also built a huge Han Kingdom."
Mentioning Shannan County, Gao Yuan's expression darkened slightly: "I couldn't forgive you for what happened back then. Is Auntie in good health?"
"Is it difficult for you to still remember her?" Lu Chao sneered, "What's wrong with a mother being by her own son's side? Now Hanyi is having fun with her grandson, I don't know how happy she is."
"So you already have a child? Is it a son or a girl?"
"It's a boy!"
"Congratulations, I'll ask someone to give a gift to my nephew later."
Looking at Gao Yuan, Lu Chao suddenly laughed, "Gao Yuan, I have never seen anyone thicker-skinned than you, but that's right. If you weren't thick-skinned, how could you have achieved what you have today?"
Gao Yuan smiled slightly, "If being thick-skinned alone could achieve something, then the world would have been in chaos long ago. Big brother called me here today, not just because he wanted to mock me, right?"
Lu Chao was silent for a while, "Gao Yuan, do you think that my father has always been unknown, and it was with your help that he became famous and became rich?"
Gao Yuan shook his head, "No, now that I think about it, if I hadn't dragged my uncle into the water at that time, maybe there wouldn't have been the murder of my uncle later. My uncle raised me since I was a child, but in the end it was me who killed him."
"You are a sensible person. If possible, I really hope that my father is just an unknown county captain who will never be successful. If that is the case, he will still live well. Gao Yuan, for my family, You are a broom star. You have been a bad person since you were a child, doing all kinds of evil. Your father has always helped you wipe your ass. In the end, you died in an unknown way because of you. I almost died in prison because of you. I have never been able to figure it out. How could a person like you achieve what he does today?" Lu Chaodao.
"Time, fate, and momentum!" Gao Yuan said calmly.
"Gao Yuan, do you know what I want to do most?"
"Kill me!" Gao Yuan blurted out without thinking.
"You are wrong, I don't want to kill you, I want to defeat you. I want to defeat you, not just because of the disaster you have brought to my family, not just because of the revenge of killing my father, but also because I want to prove, I am stronger than you. I have been stronger than you since I was a child. Although you seem to be much stronger than me now, you will eventually be defeated by me. I will destroy the kingdom you built and leave you with nothing again. ." Lu Chaodao.
Gao Wu shrugged, "Is this your obsession? If that's the case, you shouldn't let the two of us get along alone. You know, you are a scribe and I am a warrior. In such an occasion, I want to Even if I kill you, you won’t be able to escape even if I kill you.”
Lu Chao laughed, "It's just right if you kill me. In this way, Changping will be broken. By then, your Gaoyuan reputation will be lost and your morale will be low. But I, the Great Qin sergeant, will do the opposite. With my death, I will destroy your army." , it’s a good deal.”
"You are right. You naturally know that I will never kill you personally, because I do owe you." Gao Yuan shook his head and said.
"That's right, I've calculated you correctly and nailed you. I thought you wouldn't come today, but I didn't expect you to come." Lu Chao smiled and said, "Well, since you're here, we'll drink this Let’s settle all the grudges between you and our Lu family with a glass of wine. From now on, your Gao family will have nothing to do with my Lu family. I will also forget my mother’s wish. Did you know that not long ago, My mother was still asking me about your current situation in her letters home!"
Lu Chao stood up, picked up the wine bottle, and filled the wine glasses in front of them. He sat down again and picked up the glasses, "Who would have thought that one of the two young men in Fufeng back then would be a big man today?" Wang, one of the great generals of the Qin Dynasty is fighting on the battlefield to the death. Tell me, what will my father think when he is under Jiuquan? "
Gao Yuan looked at the crystal clear wine in front of him and smiled, but did not raise his glass.
"What? You don't want to have a breakup with me?" Lu Chao asked.
"It's not that I don't want to drink, it's that I can't drink." Gao Yuan laughed, "If I drink, I will die!"
Lu Chao's face changed slightly, "What do you mean? You suspect that I poisoned the wine. We only have one cup of this wine. If I poisoned it, with your skills, it would be easy for you to kill me before you die, right?"
Gao Yuan smiled and said, "Brother, you really put a lot of effort into this meeting today. You even thought of exchanging your life for mine. Of course, you still have a 10% hope that I won't die after I find out that I have been poisoned." I will kill you because I owe you the Lu family."
Gao Yuan picked up the wine glass and turned it in his hand: "If there is no problem with the wine, then the problem must be with the wine glass. Brother, you have worked hard for today's glass of wine. But you didn't notice that you made a mistake A lot of mistakes?”
Lu Chao stared at Gao Yuan and slowly put down his wine glass, "Wrong?"
"First of all, you have never been such a person who goes to a meeting alone and is upright. A person who has never been of this kind of character suddenly does something that goes against his nature. This in itself is worthy of suspicion, right?"
"Secondly, you keep mentioning Uncle Lu and Auntie Lu. You are disturbing my mind. You know, this is a heart problem of mine. Speaking of which, my uncle did die because of me, and I am not concerned about Shannan County. , and took advantage of my aunt, not to mention, I mentioned that I was raised by your Lu family since I was a child. You were afraid that I would forget this, so you kept reminding me, but I know that you are not such a person, but you If you are doing this again, you must have another purpose.”
Lu Chao's face slowly turned pale.
"Because of the above reasons, I have become suspicious. You are taking a big risk by doing this. As you said, if I find that I have been poisoned, it will be easy to kill you. But I also said before, You are betting that I will not kill you. Even if you lose the bet, as long as I die, my country of Han will definitely have big problems. Qin and Chu will attack together, and the country of Han will be internally unstable and prone to collapse. If it really is In this way, you still win in the end.”
"Brother, you are so cruel, you are even willing to risk your own life to plot against me." Gao Yuan shook his head. "Actually, if you don't talk nonsense and have three drinks with me after I come here, maybe I will actually drink. You have read too many books and are a bit pedantic. But I am curious about what is going on. What prompted you to do this? Do you really hate me so much?"
Lu Chao sat down slowly, looked at Gao Yuan for a while, and nodded, "Shouldn't I hate you? Da Qin has reached this point. It is impossible to defeat you in a short time. There is another problem in our country. This is a big problem. If my death can be exchanged for your death, then why not? If you die, the Han Kingdom will collapse. I finally achieved my wish, defeated you, and also defeated the Han Kingdom. It will be recorded in the history books, so what's wrong with this? This is an opportunity, a good opportunity, but I didn't expect you to be so cunning? "
Looking at Lu Chao, Gao Yuan slowly shook his head, "You are really obsessed!" (To be continued)
