Drunk House Chapter 514

Chapter 514 Reconciliation (Second Update)

Da Wei and Chen Bing border, secretly preparing, but have not acted yet, naturally because they are waiting for the news of Zhang Ping's invasion of the capital. In other words, waiting for the news that Zhang Ping was fighting with the soldiers and horses of the capital brought by the old Huguogong, so that he could take the opportunity to enter.

Three hundred thousand soldiers and horses is not too much, but it depends on when. For example, if there was no civil strife in Daliang, the 300,000 troops of Great Wei would not be many, but once there was civil strife in Daliang, the 300,000 soldiers of Great Wei would be able to drive straight across the border and capture the cities of Great Wei.

The chief general of the Wei army was called He Lanjue. After waiting for a few days, he didn't see any news from Zhang Ping. He couldn't sit still, so he ordered the spies, "Sneak into Daliang and find out what's going on?"

He estimated the time when Zhang Ping raised his troops, and it was time to fight the court.

The spy took the lead and sneaked into Daliang, but as soon as he entered the border of Daliang, he was targeted by the secret guards sent by Zhou Gu to the border in advance.

Spies are different from dead soldiers. They are good at finding information. They are good at hiding and finding out information. They are as nimble as a loach, but their bones are not so hard. And the Great Wei did not have 300,000 soldiers and horses, and another 200,000 soldiers and horses were rushing from the capital to the border.

In other words, the Great Wei dispatched 500,000 troops.

The secret guard reported to Zhou Gu the news he had pried out from the spy's mouth. Zhou Gu was not surprised. The prince of the Great Wei, Yuan Zhao, was a prince with excellent literary, political and martial arts. The Emperor of Great Wei had already delegated power to him a few years ago, and the status of the crown prince was almost equal to that of the Emperor of Great Wei.

What Prince Yuanzhao has been doing all these years is unknown and cannot be found out, but one thing is certain that he should be planning secretly, waiting for time, and one day, his ambition will annex Daliang.

Zhou Gu pondered for a moment, then turned around and asked Zhou Wei and the others, "Now it is a hundred miles away from the border town, and it is the only place to go to the border town. Let's set up camp here and wait for Zhang Yun's soldiers and horses!"

Zhou Wei and the others had no objection, they all nodded.

Zhou Gu waited for three days, and He Lanjue also waited for three days. He Lanjue did not wait for the news from the spies. He Lanjue had a bad intuition, and went to Prince Yuanzhao.

Yuan Zhao was wiping the machete. Hearing this, he put down the machete and looked at He Lanjue, "How many people will you send?"

"Ten."

"No one sent a message back?"

"none."

Yuan Zhao darkened his face, "Send a few more people and continue to investigate."

He Lanjue couldn't hold back, "Your Highness, it's better to go in."

Yuan Zhao shook his head, "If Zhang Ping doesn't succeed, the old Huguogong is here, and the crown prince Yan Huisheng is not an ordinary person. The old Huguogong's grandsons are already able to take charge of their own affairs. You have no confidence in your 300,000 troops."

"Isn't there still 200,000 soldiers coming?" He Lanjue asked.

"Second brother has been thinking wildly for the past few years." Yuan Zhao said: "It stands to reason that he should arrive today, but the two hundred thousand troops he brought are still three hundred miles away. What's his idea? It's nothing more than thinking that the king can't hold back and lead the troops straight into Daliang. If he succeeds, the king will take certain risks, and if he loses, he will reap the benefits of a fisherman."

He Lanjue suppressed his anxiety when he heard the words, "Your Highness is right."

He immediately ordered people to sneak into Daliang to inquire.

The spies who also sneaked into Daliang were targeted by Zhou Gu's secret guards. Although these spies were very careful, they still did not escape Zhou Gu's secret guards. They also killed and arrested them, tortured them, and obtained more information. It turned out that there was Yuan Xi, the second prince of the Great Wei Dynasty. Yuan Xi wanted to kill Yuan Zhao to seize the throne.

For Zhou Gu, this is good news. He is not afraid of the strength of the Wei army, but he is afraid that the Wei will be united as one, and that there will be cracks.

On the fifth day, Zhang Yun brought 540,000 soldiers and horses to the border a hundred miles away.

Zhou Gu stood in front of the barracks, looked at the vast army, and smiled. He has 100,000 soldiers and horses here, plus the 540,000 soldiers and horses brought by Zhang Yun, and 640,000 soldiers and horses, which is a full 140,000 soldiers and horses more than Wei Wei. Even if the Great Wei goes to war, this battle will surely win.

Zhou Shen shouted from afar, "Big Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother."

Zhou Wei and Zhou Che smiled.

Zhou Gu stepped forward, Zhou Shen dismounted, the two brothers patted each other on the shoulders, Zhou Gu said: "You came very quickly, I thought it would be two days later."

Zhou Shen said: "We travel day and night, I'm afraid that Wei can't help but make a move."

Zhou Gu nodded and looked at Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun got off his horse and cupped his hands, "Young Master Thursday!"

Zhou Gu looked him up and down, and also cupped his hands, "Master Zhang! I have long admired you!"

"I have to look up to you for a long time." Zhang Yun looked at Zhou Gu, "That day, I almost died under the two-handed sword of the Fourth Young Master. I still have lingering fears. The Fourth Young Master is good at swordsmanship."

Zhou Gu raised his eyebrows, "Thank you, Third Young Master, for your compliment. I still haven't mastered my swordsmanship, otherwise you wouldn't be standing here."

"Do you think it's a pity that the fourth son didn't kill me?" Zhang Yun asked.

Zhou Gu shook his head, "Fortunately, I couldn't kill you, otherwise my fiancée would lose a right-hand man, and that would be a pity."

Zhang Yun smiled, "Miss Seven said that when she saw the fourth son, all these soldiers and horses were dispatched by the fourth son, and I am lucky to live up to my fate."

Zhou Gu bent his lips and made a gesture of invitation to Zhang Yun, "It's hard work, easy to say, please, third son!"

Zhang Yun nodded and followed Zhou Gu into the barracks.

Bathing and changing clothes, after a short rest, Zhang Yun walked out of the camp, and saw Zhou Gu standing with his hands behind his back, standing not far away, as if waiting for him, he froze for a moment, "The fourth son is waiting for me?"

Zhou Gu turned to look at him, nodded, "I've ordered someone to hold a banquet, let's go and have a drink together."

Zhang Yun nodded, and followed Zhou Gu to the camp of the Chinese Army.

Come to the big tent of the Chinese Army, where the food and wine have been placed one after another. Zhou Gu didn't go to the main seat, but pulled Zhang Yun together and sat at a table with him.

Everyone is lively, you come and go, push a cup to change a cup.

Halfway through the banquet, Zhou Gu was slightly drunk, turned his head to Zhang Yun and said, "You know that Su Rong has given me a marriage certificate, right?"

Zhang Yun thought that it really came, he smiled inwardly, but pretended not to know, "Miss Seven gave you a marriage letter? I don't know, I haven't heard anyone mention it before."

Zhou Gu immediately said: "It doesn't matter if you don't know. Now that I've told you, you already know. Be a pure minister and don't have any other thoughts about her that you shouldn't, otherwise I won't be polite."

Zhang Yun: "..."

Is it so straightforward?

He coughed lightly, "Otherwise, why not be polite?"

Zhou Gu patted his waist, "My swordsmanship can be improved, understand?"

The implication is that if you don't obey, you will kill.

Zhang Yun laughed, "Okay, I understand."

Fighting alone, he is indeed not an opponent.

Monthly pass, okay?
