"I didn't expect that Liu Guangshi actually chose to defect to Du Fuwei instead of Yang Guang and Deng Qiang..."
Wu Yong thought to himself.
But then he thought that Deng Qiang and Yang Guang were both ruthless and decisive people. If a general like Liu Guangshi, who only knew how to flee when encountering a strong enemy, fell into their hands, he would sooner or later be killed and sacrificed to the flag.
Du Fuwei's power is a little weaker, but there is no danger.
From this point, we can see that Liu Guangshi, who was able to reach the pinnacle of military generals in the Song Dynasty despite having a mediocre record in history, was not just a coward who was timid and avoided war.
After thinking for a moment, Wu Yong showed no emotion on his face. After saying a few words to Wang Xiongdan, he led the people into the post house.
No matter what Liu Guangshi did in Hukou, it had nothing to do with him.
There is only one thing he has to consider, and that is to meet Du Fuwei tomorrow. What words can he use to make Du Fuwei realize the threat of Deng Qiang and choose to form an alliance with the Huai army without hurting the other party's face.
at the same time.
Wang Xiongdan came to a spacious hall of a mansion where guards were constantly patrolling.
"Father!"
He saluted a middle-aged man at the head of the hall.
This middle-aged man has a square appearance and a burly figure. Sitting on the chair, he looks like a tiger is entrenched, giving him the aura of a tiger gazing into the forest.
This person was Du Fuwei, who traveled across the Yangtze River and Huaihe River in the history of the original world, and was finally named King of Wu.
When he came to the mainland of China, he had not yet become king.
"Brother, what did the Huai Army's envoy say? Do you want us to surrender to Wang Jing? Well, let me tell you, a mere envoy is asking us to surrender. The Huai Army wants to do that!"
There were several generals in the hall. One of them, a thick black man, had a rough voice and his eyes were like the pupils of a beast, full of evil energy.
Before Wang Xiongdan could say anything, the big man began to berate the Huai army.
Du Fuwei waved his hand and said: "I have heard of King Huai's name a long time ago. King Huai conquered the east and west, destroyed many princes, and even Deng Qiang was defeated by him. He is a hero."
"He sent an envoy here. He would not ask me to surrender with just an order. He must have other plans! Kan Leng, let your elder brother finish explaining the envoy's situation first!"
Wang Xiongdan said: "Forgive me, my adoptive father. This Huai Army envoy has a very strict tone. He just said that he came this time to discuss with his adoptive father how to deal with Deng Qiang..."
"Discuss how to deal with Deng Qiang?"
Du Fuwei frowned slightly.
The Huai army was able to find out information about Deng Qiang. As a prince close to Deng Qiang, Du Fuwei naturally had a better understanding of the powerful enemy to the west of his home.
Deng Qiang has been fighting continuously with Yingbo in the past few months, defeating the top general Yingbo.
Du Fuwei had fought against Yingbu's army, and had seen Yingbu's terrifying strength before Yingbu broke through to the seventh level.
In his impression, Yingbu is worthy of being called the top general. Among all the generals under his command, none of them is Yingbu's opponent.
If he faced off against Yingbu, he would lose but not win.
But it is rare for such a powerful general to win in the hands of Deng Qiang... This shows that Deng Qiang's ability and strength are still superior to Yingbo's.
And Wang Jing, who had defeated Deng Qiang before, didn't know how powerful he should be.
When gods fight, mortals suffer.
In Du Fuwei's view, both Deng Qiang and Wang Jing were "gods", but he was just a mortal and could not get involved in their rivalry.
So when Wang Xiongdan said this.
Du Fuwei subconsciously refused in his heart. Deng Qiang had no enmity with him, so why did he intervene in the fight between the Huai Army and Deng Qiang?
"We have no grievances against Deng Qiang, so why should we deal with Deng Qiang together with King Huai? In my opinion, adoptive father, just send this envoy gift out of the country to avoid being tainted with right and wrong!"
Guzai
Kan Leng said. He directly stated Du Fuwei's thoughts.
Wang Xiongdan said quickly: "No, King Huai is powerful, and the other party sends an envoy. If he doesn't show up and drives him away, doesn't it mean that King Huai will punish me? No matter what King Huai wants to do, the envoy must at least see me!" "
The two of them are Du Fuwei's right-hand men. The other generals, school officials, and civil servants have no say in front of Du Fuwei.
In the hall, the two started arguing.
Du Fuwei rubbed his eyebrows and said: "Forget it, I have already said that I will summon him tomorrow, so let's meet this messenger tomorrow and see what he wants to say!"
"Father, there is one more thing. On the way back with the envoy, I saw Liu Guangshi's people causing trouble in the streets, so I had them tied up..."
Wang Xiongdan thought of what he had just encountered and said again.
"Well, it's a small matter, and you handled it well!"
Du Fuwei obviously didn't take Liu Guangshi's troops seriously either.
…
The next day, early morning.
Wu Yong came to see Du Fuwei.
"Wu Yong, the head of the Foreign Affairs Department under King Huai, has met the general!"
Du Fuwei said: "The envoy does not need to be polite. I dare to ask the king of Huai why he sent Mr. Wu here for what purpose?"
Wu Yong keenly heard a hint of alienation from the other party's tone. The other party seemed to be avoiding King Huai.
He immediately smiled and said: "I am here especially to save the general!"
Du Fuwei was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then laughed and said, "Mr. Wu is indeed a messenger. He likes to bully others. Is this general in danger and do I need you to save me?"
He has fought dozens of battles since he raised the army and has rich experience. Of course he knows that envoys like to give you a stick on the head, and then use their soft tongue to confuse people's minds.
This is what Wu Yong is using now.
Wu Yong smiled. It doesn't matter if the routine is old or not, as long as it works, he said: "Deng Qiang was the number one general in the former Qin Dynasty. He was known as the enemy of ten thousand people. He also had Zhang Hao under his command, who was also known as the enemy of ten thousand people. He was very powerful."
"Now the former Qin army has annexed Yingbu and is reorganizing its troops. After the former Qin army is reorganized, it will definitely send troops to plunder all directions and seize food and grass!"
"There are grain and grass forces around the former Qin army, only you and me. Our army is separated from Deng Qiang by the Huaihe River, and it is inconvenient to cross the river... The only target left for the former Qin army to send troops is the general!"
"If our army does not take action, will the general have the confidence to withstand the attack of the former Qin army?"
Du Fuwei's expression changed slightly.
He keenly heard the core of what Wu Yong wanted to express, that is, the former Qin army was in a serious state of food shortage. If they were short of food, they would naturally rob the surrounding forces.
Among the surrounding forces, he is the only one who is weak.
It is undoubtedly a joke to say that there is no grievance or enmity at this time. There is no right and wrong when others hit you. You will be beaten simply because you are weak.
"Mr. Wu, there is no need to make false threats. Deng Qiang is powerful, but I am not afraid of him either..."
"What exactly does Prince Huai want from me? Mr. Wu, please tell me directly. As the saying goes, no reward will be given without merit. Without a suitable reason, I would not dare to accept Prince Huai's kindness!"
Du Fuwei said.
Another meaning of not being rewarded for meritorious service is to show courtesy for nothing, which means committing adultery or stealing.
Du Fuwei simply did not believe that the Huai Army would take the initiative to help him resist the threat of Deng Qiang...
Wu Yong did not tell the true purpose of the Huai army.
Even if Deng Qiang really led his army to attack as Wu Yong said, Du Fuwei would not accept the so-called "alliance".
