Chapter 17
Now King Qin's army is divided into three marches, and the [-] soldiers led by the Marquis of Jin go to Yishui and detour to the west side of Xiong Dun.

The Duke of Qi and Duke Song led the army to confront Xiong Dun on the north side, and they were also approaching slowly. The key was to have the same military orders to prevent Xiong Dun from exerting his best short-term skills.

The third route was led by Zheng Bo, and the main task was to occupy the land of Fang and Cai to prevent Xiong Dun from looting eastward.

These days, the allied forces of the princes and the Chu army have fought many times, and they have a deep feeling for the bravery of the Chu soldiers, especially Xiong Dun himself. No one is his enemy, and even the armor is useless. The armor is dented.

However, Xiong Dun's situation is still not very good. After all, the Chu soldiers are still small, and this battle has gained too much. The Chu soldiers want to return to the country. Now they are completely suppressed by his lofty prestige.

In these days, truckloads of slaves, treasures, and food were transported to the state of Chu, and the wealth of the entire state of Chu more than doubled in an instant. Ji Wannanzheng alone brought so much wealth, one can imagine that, How much wealth does Luoyi Wangji have?

Luo Su was very aware of the situation between the two sides. He came here to quickly end the current state of confrontation and maintain the current huge army of Qin Wang's army is under great financial pressure.

In fact, although King Qin's army has now formed a three-sided encirclement against the Chu army, the Chu army can go directly down the Han River at any time as long as they want. Retreat can be defended, the strategic initiative is completely in his hands.

Luo Su did not delay for a moment when he came to the front line, and directly sent an envoy to the Chu army to discuss with Xiong Dun.

Xiong Dun has always wanted to meet Luo Su, which is one of the reasons why he did not withdraw.

There was a gust of breeze blowing across the face, and the two sat opposite each other. Luo Su did not bring guards. He thought about whether he could use guards to capture Xiong Dun, but he finally gave up, because it was unnecessary and he was not sure.

Xiong Dun filled Luosu and himself with a jue of wine, and said with some emotion: "Luohou, the widow has wanted to see you for a long time, and I still remember that Luoyi is the only one who praised the widow as the pillar of the state. , Zhu Xia Zhiguang', I didn't expect to see you now, but the king you were loyal to died in the hands of a widow."

Facing Xiong Dun's claim to be a widow, Luo Su didn't have any special reaction, he just said lightly: "Chu, Yuki and the two feared the loyal and honest man Qingjun, so they held the emperor, causing the emperor to collapse into the chaos. You He is not a king killer, or Gu will not be sitting here now, but will raise his army and fight you to the death."

First remove Xiong Dun's hat of killing the king, and then the negotiation can continue, otherwise there is really no talk. If the revenge of killing the king is not avenged, how will Bang Zhou's etiquette laws continue to operate?
"Hahaha."

Xiong Dun laughed heartily, and was not at all annoyed at Luo Su calling him Chu Zi, because Luo Su was the queen of Su, and maintaining the system was almost instinctive, "Luohou is really a wonderful person, it's a pity that you are the queen of Su, Otherwise, I will bring you back to Chu State, and the widow may also be blessed by the destiny.”

Luo Su looked at Xiong Dun who was laughing, and said lightly on his face: "Chu, what happened yesterday can't be chased. People always have to look forward. When you are alone here, you should retreat and return to Chu."

Xiong Dun put away his smile and said coldly: "What Luohou said is arrogant, it is ridiculous, the widow has an army of [-] people, and Ji Wanxiao's army was also defeated by the widow. Occupy Shenlu, and attack Luoyi directly from three sides, do you say that if you retreat, you will retreat?"

Xiong Dun's face turned cold, but Luo Su laughed instead.

"As Chu Zi said, Gu is the queen of King Su, the state and destiny of the Zhou Dynasty are in Gu's hands!"

He stared straight at the turbulent river behind Xiong Dun, and suddenly asked a question that was irrelevant: "Chu, you know that the will of heaven is like a knife, and those who defy the sky will be blamed.

The 600-year-old society of the Yin and Shang Dynasties was not spared. This land of Shenlu is indeed a beautiful scenery, but if it snows heavily and the river freezes, what will happen? "

When Xiong Dun heard Luo Su's threatening words, he said with disdain on his face: "Luo Hou is really a fantastic idea. Widows are born and die. If you don't believe this, how can it be possible in June..."

As he was talking, he saw Luo Su still had a serious expression on his face. He suddenly recalled what was recorded in the ancient books. When King Su was on his expedition, he borrowed the legend of the wind from heaven, and a biting chill rushed straight to his forehead. .

If it snows heavily and the river freezes, the Chu army will die without a place to be buried!
Xiong Dun's murderous aura instantly rose up, he stared straight at Luo Su, his voice was a little hoarse: "Luohou must be joking with the widow, God..."

Luo Su didn't seem to feel the almost substantive murderous aura, and he still had a warm smile on his face: "Chu Zi, sit down, taste this glass of ice wine, when you come alone, go to the ancestral temple and ask the ancestors for it. Yes, it's a pleasure to be able to drink a drink at this time of the month."

Grandfather!
Su Wang!

"Luohou Mo is joking, King Su died long ago when King Kang."

As Xiong Dun said, he involuntarily reached out his hand to pick up the glass of wine. He felt a biting chill. He looked closely and saw that there were thick ice cubes condensed on it. : "King Su, is this the blessing of destiny?"

Looking at Luo Su's elegant face, he thought that if the snow fell, I don't know how many Chu troops would be able to escape.

Xiong Dun couldn't help but have the idea of ​​breaking the pot and breaking the jar. He killed Luo Su first, and then led the army to fight against the Qin Wang allied army. It was worth his life in this world.

Looking at Xiong Dun's expression, Luo Su knew that Xiong Dun was probably thinking about killing himself. He didn't intend to make Xiong Dun really anxious, so he took out a wine baron again, filled the wine and pushed it over, and said with a smile: "You don't need to be so flustered. If you want to wipe out the Chu army, Gu will not be sitting here today."

Xiong Dun, who was already in shock, hurriedly said: "Luohou does not teach orphans, no, teach orphans."

Seeing that Xiong Dun's attitude has undergone earth-shaking changes, Luo Su couldn't help feeling that the artifact was really useful.

Just now, he used a bamboo stick given by his ancestor to congeal the ice cubes on the wine bar, adding his ancestor's famous deeds, and Bang Zhou's unswerving promotion of the destiny over the years, and he subdued Xiong Dun in an instant.

In fact, even if Yue Yuexue was really used, it would be impossible to freeze a large river.

"Don't worry too much, son of Chu, although you have arrogantly claimed the title of king these years, you are only boasting in the country. I know that when you conquered the barbarians, you still used the Zhou etiquette to teach you. your reason.

In those days, the solitary ancestor, King Su, was a feudalist, and maintaining the destiny of the state and Zhou was only secondary.

You are a person who has made contributions to Zhu Xia, so Gu has been easing the relationship between Chu and the emperor, and is even willing to invite you to be a marquis.

It's just that in this battle of Hanshui, you made a big mistake, and your previous achievements will be cancelled. "

Xiong Dun knew that he had no ability to refuse, and now he just wanted to bring the Chu army back to the state of Chu.

These people followed him on the expedition. He couldn't let them all die in a foreign country, so he said dullly: "Luohou, please speak bluntly, in the current situation, can Gu still have other choices?"

Seeing Xiong Dun's statement, Luo Su said the countermeasures he thought about all the way: "Chu Zi, you are going to ask Luo Yi a letter of guilt, which points out these points.

First, claiming the king by arrogance is just an angry word. You know in your heart that you are not appointed by the heavens, so you have never been called the emperor. Now you are willing to take the title of king, surrender to Bangzhou, and release the previously captured nobles.

Second, you raised an army to fight against the emperor, but you have made great contributions to the state and Zhou, but you have not been rewarded. I did not expect that the emperor was killed by a traitor, and the land collapsed. You were distraught, blamed yourself, and offered treasures from the state of Chu to be buried with the emperor. To show loyalty to the king.

Third, you will definitely not be able to occupy the land of Shenlu. The land of the Five Kingdoms will be taken back with the Tang Erdi, and the important ministers will be dispatched to establish the Hou Kingdom. This will be good for you and me, and the three places of Deng, Lu, and Yuan will be left to you. , otherwise you are afraid that you will not be able to explain to the country.

When I let you go back this time, you must move forward. The ancestor King Su once said that there are three thousand miles of beautiful rivers and mountains in the south of Chu, and you can take it as much as you can. "

Xiong Dun's mood has gradually calmed down. Seeing that Luohou is still thinking about himself, he is a little moved, and he solemnly salutes Luosu: "I swear to the Han River here alone, the day Luohou is in Wangji, Chu Bingfeng will Never go north, if in the future the monarch of Chu State is fortunate enough to go to the Central Plains, let him go to the Luohou Tomb to worship."

Both of them knew that even if they were re-claimed as ministers and paid tribute, Xiong Dun would be different from other princes.

As for Bing Feng's promise not to go north, one is to add a bit of help to Luosu, and the other is that he understands that this retreat will never give him a chance to go north again.

"Luohou, there will be an expiry later!"

Xiong Dun turned to leave the place.

"There will be a period later." Luo Su got up and said goodbye to Xiong Dun, watching him drift away.

……

"Old Ancestor, Xiong Dun is here, the south is vast, and the state of Chu will definitely be a big problem for our state and Zhou in the future."

"You still chose to let him go."

"Ancestor, you are so wise, is Su doing the right thing?"

"I can know 1000 years ahead and 1000 years later, but I can't say a word, I can only teach you some principles of life. How to do things depends on yourself."

"Su knows."

……

As soon as Luo Su returned to King Qin's marching camp, a group of princes surrounded him, "Master, what did Xiong Dun say?"

Some of these people want the talks to break down so that they can seize power in the war, and some hope that the peace talks will succeed because now the war is not the big issue, the politics is the big issue.

Luo Su then informed everyone about the results of the discussions between the two.

"Master, are you kidding me?"

"A reckless person like Xiong Dun can agree to such conditions?"

"It's normal to give up the land of Shenlu, but he can also give up after Tang? Is this really going to be a new minister?"

Unbelievable voices came one after another. Xiong Dun is not weak. The most important thing is that he can come from the whole country. Regarding the goals of this war, the two sides are different from the beginning. This is the root of the stalemate between the two sides. reason.

The Hanshui Five Kingdoms, far away from the Central Plains, are sparsely populated, with many barbarians, and it is said that there is still a miasma. It is a barren land. Even if it is a seal, not many nobles are willing to go. Material wasted.

But they knew that Sui Tang was the core interest of Chu State, and once it was released, Luoyi would soon be able to rebuild a line of defense.

"Although Xiong Dun has surrendered, the defense against the state of Chu cannot fall. Gu has decided that after the crown prince ascends the throne, he will ask the new emperor for a golden book and canonize four places in Shendi, Suidi, Tongbai and Tanghe. Marquis of [-] li, and stationed troops for three years, to stabilize the four kingdoms."

Four Marquis!

This is a big deal. The canonization of each marquis means the redistribution of wealth, so now the canonization of the princes is becoming more and more cautious. Only the real princes and sons can get the canonization.

As for whether the Son of Heaven would agree, that's impossible. Ji Xi is not yet an adult, so Luo Su will definitely be in charge at that time, just like the former King Su.

The only difference is that when Ji Zhao was regent at the time, it was the will of King Wu himself. It was the general regent of Bangzhou, and the king was in charge of affairs. He had all the powers of the Son of Heaven. Luosu did not have a will, and many people would oppose him. There is bound to be a fight.

After Xiong Dun handed over the letter of guilt, Luosu sent an army to accept the land of Shenlu, and when the two cities were in their hands, the confrontation was completely over.

Xiong Dun's retreat was fast, he still needed to return to the country to reward the nobles in the country, and he also needed to explain the reason for the sudden retreat.

The army of King Qin also began to withdraw slowly. Most of the troops were brought back to Fengguo by the subordinates of the princes. As for the princes, naturally they would not go back. The crown prince Ji Xi's enthronement ceremony began to prepare when Luosu left. To support Ji Xi on the throne.

Many people came to ask Luo Su when he would support the crown prince. Even if Ji Xi ascended the throne according to the ritual system, it was a sure thing, but the achievements of the support would be recorded in the book, and various awards would be listed at that time.

Originally, everyone was the first to go to the prince to brush their faces, but now Luo Su is taking the credit for nothing, obviously planning this matter.

In this case, even those princes who did not deal with Luosu did not dare to be the target of public criticism.

Luo Su could only tell everyone over and over again: "There is a good plan in a lonely belly. When I return to Luoyi, I will tell everyone."

In fact, Luo Su has already made a list of supporters, and politics is no trivial matter. The next political order in Luoyi will be laid out from this support.

The most important thing now is to rest and recuperate, and must not fall into infighting, so Luosu spent a lot of thought, and after returning to Luoyi, the princes finally received Luosu's list.

Faced with this list, if you think about Luo Su's intentions, everyone can only worship him, he is worthy of being the Queen of Su.

There are a total of ten princes on the list, divided into four batches.

The first batch was the most powerful princes among the three Ji surnames, Luohou, Yanhou and Jinhou. This was an announcement that the Ji surnamed princes recognized his great successor. Luosu deliberately did not include Weihou among them.

The second group is Erwang Sanke. As guests of Bangzhou, their political status is still very high, showing the orthodox destiny of Bangzhou.

The third group is the heavyweight relatives of Qi, who are powerful enough to show the power in the hands of the emperor.

Finally, there are other representatives of princes with different surnames. Their existence is mainly to prove that Bangzhou is not only a place where there are Zhuji, but the emperor treats all subjects in the world with benevolence.

With everyone's persuasion to Ji Xi, the Zhou Dynasty ushered in a new emperor, Ji Xi.

……

King of Chu, who defeated Zhou, attacked Ba, and suppressed barbarians, in more than a hundred battles, all were invincible, and all were invincible. At that time, people were called the master of soldiers.

The waiter said: Why don't you go north to ask for the importance of the summit?

The king said: Lord Luo, after King Su, is in charge of the king's business, the mandate of heaven is in Zhou, and I respect heaven and know it, so I do not go north. ——"Historical Records: Chu Family"

 A person's success depends not only on his own ability, but also on the progress of history. Xiong Dun, a hero in troubled times, has reached such an end, which is the epitome of how many loyal ministers and famous generals in history.

  ……

  I feel that the update of the underworld time every day is really not very good. I will probably update it at this point in the future. In order to prevent everyone from waiting too long, I will add a new chapter today.

  Such a caring author, everyone move their hands, vote, and thank you on the moonlit night.
