Chapter 278: Greeting the Envoy
Speaking of which, Gao Yuan has fought many big and vicious battles, but up to now, he has never been used to wearing heavy armor. When he was in Liaoxi, Zhang Shubao once gave him a good pair of fish scale armor, but he never wore it once. However, putting on such a heavy armor has indeed improved the protection performance to a higher level, but when fighting, it made him feel like he was tied up, and he couldn't perform many actions at all.
However, although Gao Yuan himself didn't want to wear armor, he was never stingy when it came to soldiers. He couldn't afford iron armor, but he always had to get a pair of leather armor for the soldiers, and then put iron plates on important places such as the heart, so-so It's over, Gao Yuan knows that the soldiers don't have such a keen intuition for fighting like him, and they can always avoid fatal blows at the most critical time.
However, his hobby is very much affected by his subordinates.
Now Gao Yuan is ordered to go to the city of Zhao to meet the negotiating minister Gong Zilan and his party. This makes Gao Yuan a little uneasy, and Zhou Yuan seems to be flattering him too much.
This seems to be a simple task, but the meaning contained in it is not simple. In this battle, the country of Yan is the victorious country, and it is a supreme honor to send the envoy to meet the negotiation, not to mention that the other party is Prime Minister Zhao Guoguo, where is the famous Gong Zilan?
Those who praise you may not be for your own good, and those who step on you may not be your enemy. Gao Yuan still can't figure out why Zhou Yuan praised himself so high. Zhou Yuan appreciates himself and wants to pull Is it for his use? Just like what Ning Zecheng is doing now? Gao Yuan shook his head, definitely not like this, Ning Zecheng may be doing it to disgust Ye Tiannan, maybe it is because there are not many generals in his hands, I am afraid the reason for the former is more Some, that's how to show kindness to himself, and Zhou Yuan, as the current captain, who holds the actual military power, has a few of himself, and lacks a lot of himself, so he can't do it.
It was precisely because of this that Gao Yuan was even more worried in his heart, and people were worried only if he couldn't see through. Zhou Yuan made him unable to see through. What Tan Feng said to himself was confirmed by Zhou Yuan. The majestic Taiwei even invited Gao Yuan to accompany him to Jicheng.
It is a qualitative leap to become a general, although it can only be a general of no name. Zhou Yuan told himself with regret that if he were a nobleman, then, with the merits of this battle, he could definitely get A real titled general. But Gao Yuan is already very satisfied, and he has to rely on himself to walk out step by step. This time, the gains from coming out have far exceeded his expectations.
Jicheng, that is a place that I both loathe and yearn for. There are countless nobles and nobles gathered there, and there are full of life and habits that are incompatible with him. However, Gao Yuan has to take it as his goal. , not only Ye Jinger, but also his ideals in life, only when he gets there can he be regarded as having achieved the first step of success.
Jicheng, you just wait. Gao Yuan let out a long breath. No matter what Zhou Yuan was thinking or what he wanted to do, he could only wait passively, so as not to change. It's great that I offend another captain, and I have already made an enmity with a country, so I am afraid of another captain? To me, it is the same, anyway, they are all huge, one is enough to crush myself, two , and the result will not be any worse.
Gao Yuan suddenly grinned. Thinking about it, he is really satisfied. Among the countless county lieutenants in the world, if you count the ability to make enemies, I am afraid that he will really be number one.
"Brothers, sing!" Gao Yuan waved his arms and shouted at the Fufeng soldiers in green clothes behind him, "Let the comrades in Dayan's hometown see the majesty of our Dayan warriors."
At this time, on the road they were advancing, there were already many ordinary people walking in it. The war was over, and these ordinary people who did not know where to hide before suddenly appeared on this land again, watching them drive a cart Carrying oxen and donkeys, apparently returning home from hiding places
"Okay," Yan Haibo happily agreed, and turned to look at his subordinates, "Listen well, listen to my password, one, two, three, get up"
The direction of the long knife is directed at the homeland of my Dayan;
The setting sun flows like blood on our journey;
The hunting of banners calls the marching drums;
The long yellow sand cannot stop the footsteps of the warriors;
Since ancient times, Dayan has many strong men, who can be killed but not humiliated;
Loyalty and filial piety have been difficult since ancient times, so farewell to parents with tears;
Invincible, our army mighty
Blood-stained war robes are the most beautiful clothes for men;
The shroud of horse leather is the home of heroes;
Picking the heads of enemies with swords and guns;
The chariots roll over the bones of barbarians;
Since ancient times, no one has died in life, and the sincerity is as in the history books;
Those who violate the strong Yan will be punished even if they are far away
Amidst the loud and clear singing, the Fufeng soldiers strode forward towards the city with neat steps. The singing attracted countless passers-by to stop, silently watching this vigorous army marching forward with high morale.
Confusion City.
There was deathly silence in the room, Gong Zilan was sitting at the head, and on both sides, Zhao Qi, Zhao Meng, who were dejected, and Zhao Guang, who was in casual clothes, were all silent.
"If you lose, you lose. Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. It's no big deal. Even Zhao Mu, doesn't he always suffer defeat?" Zi Lan let out a long breath.
Zhao Guang, who had been lowering his head, stood up suddenly and looked at Zhao Qi with indescribable hatred in his eyes, "Once the whole city is lost, our army should preserve its strength and retreat immediately. If we did this in the first place, we Now there are at least tens of thousands of standing troops, and if we don’t fight Yan, this army can fight Qin’s army, but now, we have nothing, and the ending is even worse.”
Zhao Qi raised his head eagerly and looked at Zhao Guang with resentment in his eyes, but in the end he didn't say anything. He felt unspeakable annoyance in his heart. In the court, although Gong Zilan was the prime minister of the country, he was always treated by others. The object of exclusion has no real power at all, and he, Zhao Qi, is a person who is afraid of real power, but now, sitting on top of him is this Gong Zilan whom he has been devoting himself to attacking, and he is born by him. Grab a huge handle.
Hold it back, don't take it upon yourself. Zhao Qi desperately said to himself in his heart, Gong Zilan said it easily, but his face felt pain, maybe his heart was full of laughter, he couldn't let him see the joke, he could bear it for a while Humiliation, in exchange for a brighter future, it won't be too late to get back to this game after this period of limelight is over.
"General Zhao" Zilan cut off Zhao Guang's words, "This is the end of the matter, too much talk is useless, and you will be held accountable after the fact. The court has its own opinion, and it's not something you can dictate here."
Zhao Guang bowed his head sadly, and sat back down again.
"Lord Zhao, you will set off tomorrow and go back to your own fief. Don't leave your fief without Handan's order," Zi Lan said slowly.
Zhao Qi raised his head eagerly, is this driving him away from Handan? There was a trace of panic in his eyes, leaving Handan, he left the center of power, and it was at this timing.
"Is this what the king means?" He glared at Zilan.
"Of course." Zi Lan nodded slightly. "Zhao Meng, you are leaving tomorrow to go to the Hedong camp and serve under General Zhao Mu's tent. Remember, you can only go alone. Your guards will accompany you. None are allowed."
Unlike Zhao Qi's reluctance, when he heard Zi Lan's announcement, Zhao Meng's eyes flashed a gleam of joy. After this big defeat, he almost thought that he was going to die. Zhao Qi was deeply favored by the king. And this defeat , always needs a scapegoat, Zhao Guang was imprisoned by Zhao Qi, and he was determined to be the person responsible for this failure.
Now it is only sent to General Zhao Mu's tent to serve, and he is not allowed to bring his followers and guards, which means that he has been reduced to an ordinary soldier, but when he is in General Zhao's tent, with his own ability, how can he be used as a small soldier? ?Fighting with the general for several years, it is just around the corner to recover.
"The last general thanked the king for his kindness, and thanked the Prime Minister of the country for his kindness." Zhao Meng knelt down and kowtowed. The joy on his face was hard to suppress.
Zilan waved her hand, "Let all the soldiers and horses in the city be handed over to Zhao Guang. Zhao Guang, although there are only more than 10,000 people left here, but these 10,000 people are our standing army, you have to think about it carefully. There is a way to restore their morale, maybe they will be useful soon.”
"Understood, my lord," Zhao Guang said.
"My lord, the envoy sent by the Yan army to welcome you has arrived." Outside the door, an officer strode in and bowed to Zilan.
"Oh, who is it?" Zi Lan asked.
"Returning to the country, Mr. Gao Yuan, he has arrived outside the city with two hundred soldiers, and is waiting for you to set off."
"Too much deceit" Zhao Guangguang was furious. Zilan was Zhao Guoguo's prime minister with a distinguished status. The envoys who came to greet Yan Jun were not to say that they were on the same level as Zilan, but at least they had to be at Chunyu Yan's level. Now, Yan Jun only sent This is naked contempt. "Tell them that the Prime Minister is not feeling well and can't leave now."
Zi Lan smiled slightly, and stopped the officer, "Forget it, now, I'm still trying to figure out what to do. I've heard about Gao Yuan, but I didn't expect him to come to pick me up, just in time to meet me."
"Master of the country" Zhao Guang wanted to say something else, Zilan waved his hand, "General Zhao, now our Zhao country is in danger, Zhao country is in trouble, not Yan country, we have something to ask from him, this contempt is nothing, said Uncertainty, there is still a greater humiliation waiting for us, we can't bear to be angry for a while, how can we keep my country's luck for a long time?"
