Spring and Autumn GL

28. Highlight the encirclement

A Zhi and Xi Shi were very happy in Wu Gong, but Zheng Dan was fighting the enemy army in Qi State.This time Wu Guo was well prepared to attack Qi, and he captured seven cities, large and small, within three months, shocking the government and the people of Qi.Lu Ao, Duke Ping of Qi, saw that the allied forces of Wu and Lu were about to attack Linzi, but after repeated battles and defeats, he had to ask Tian Chang for advice.

Tian Chang stepped forward and said: "The Wu army is united as one, the morale is high, and the morale of our army is low. This is the most important thing. However, as the saying goes, proud soldiers must be defeated, and sad soldiers must win. If the king can come to the battlefield again and fight the enemy, Our Qi soldiers will definitely fight to the death. Right now, there is only one way to survive. There is a valley to the west of Linzi. If the Wu army attacks, they will definitely not be able to bypass the valley. Your Majesty can gather the soldiers on the top of the mountain. Our army is rolling a log If Fu Chai is not dead, he will still be seriously injured. To capture the thief, first capture the king. When the time comes, the Wu army will be leaderless, and there will be chaos. The king will lead the troops to charge and kill for a while, so that the Wu army will suffer heavy casualties, unable to attack the city, and can only retreat."

Lu Ao thought that there was really no other way, so he nodded and assigned five thousand soldiers to Tian Chang to ambush first.

Fu Chai is drinking in the tent, and Zheng Dan is playing the piano beside him.Suddenly, one of the strings snapped, and the sound of the piano stopped suddenly.Fu Chai frowned and said:

"When you are playing the piano, you should avoid breaking the strings. Could it be a bad omen?"

Zheng Dan said with a smile: "No matter how strong the strings are, they will break one day. How can they withstand countless plucks? It's just that the king just saw it this time. How can there be any bad omens?"

Fu Chai drank the wine in his glass: "Aifei is well said, I really like you more and more. Missing you, a woman, not only is beautiful, but also talented, and can even lead soldiers to fight. Every woman in the world should You have been compared to me! Tell the widow, what is wrong with you?"

Zheng Dan's expression froze: "What does Your Majesty want to say?"

Fu Chai laughed: "You don't have to be nervous, it's just you and me in this tent, just chatting casually. The widow and you are not only monarchs and ministers, but also husband and wife. Sometimes, I also want to live an ordinary married life."

Seeing that Fu Chai was drinking too much, Zheng Dan tentatively said, "Your Majesty is all about attacking together, isn't he afraid that Yue Guo will catch him by surprise?"

Fu Chai frowned: "Oh, why are you becoming more and more like Wu Zixu? The widow doesn't know how much the country has? Don't mention it again. Now that the widow has you, Wu Zixu is no longer needed. He is proud of his talent." , when the widow is victorious and returns to the country, the first one will give him some color—huh? Why are you frowning?"

Zheng Dan said perfunctorily, "I'm worried about Xi Shi, I don't know how her illness is."

"Oh, oh, don't mention that sick child." Fu Chai waved his hand: "It's a bad idea, and I don't know how to behave, so why can't I be bedridden... Also, the widow always feels that he has nothing to do with that doctor Fan from the Yue Kingdom Usually, every time we meet, there is flirtatious flirting. You understand homelessness, do you think they had any affair before?"

Zheng Dan was surprised, but the expression on his face remained unchanged: "Your Majesty is worrying too much. Yi Guang is a man of temperament. I just want to thank Dr. Fan for saving her from the dire situation. There is nothing else."

"Oh..." Fu Chai blinked, as if he had forgotten what he asked in the previous sentence, and Zheng Dan didn't know whether he listened or not.But when Fu Chai mentioned the names of Xi Shi and Fan Li, Zheng Dan felt a strong longing in his heart, thinking that he must finish this battle as soon as possible, so that he could go back to see Xi Shi... Presumably, Xi Shi's place, I have already accumulated a lot of Fan Li's letters.

In the early morning of the second day, Fu Chai set off to Linzi with his army. After marching for half a day, they came to the mouth of a valley. Just as they were about to step in, the army was stopped by Zheng Dan.

She came to the middle army and said to Fucha: "Your Majesty, the valley ahead is a dangerous place, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If the Qi army has an ambush on the mountain, it will be difficult for our army to resist. It is better to go over the mountain."

Fu Chai looked up the mountain, except for a few birds flying up occasionally, there was nothing unusual, and said:

"The Qi army knew that the widows were going to attack Linzi, so why would they divide their troops to ambush us? Most of them have gone to defend the city. Don't worry too much about being homeless."

Zheng Dan sneered from the bottom of his heart, he was too lazy to argue with Fu Chai, he just had to be on guard, when there really was an ambush, how many Wu Jun died and injured, and what did it have to do with her?

Seeing that Zheng Dan no longer had any doubts, Fu Chai ordered the army to advance again. After walking for about half an hour, the front army had gone deep into the valley, and the rear army had completely entered the valley mouth, but there was no movement.

"Look, the widow said it's okay. The Qi army has already been scared by me, so how dare I ambush? The soldiers are false and true. He expected that the widow would not dare to leave, so the widow will go."

Zheng Dan didn't speak at the side, but pricked up his ears to listen to the movement on both sides.The mountain was too quiet, not even the usual birdsong, which made her very nervous.

After walking for another moment, the former army was about to walk out of the valley. Fu Chai smiled relaxedly, but Zheng Dan followed Fu Chai cautiously.Suddenly there was thunderous drumming on the top of the mountain, and Fu Chai was startled. He hurriedly looked up, and saw Wu Jun in silver armor all over the mountains and plains, all pointing at him with bows and arrows in their hands.He rolled off his horse with a thud, and hurriedly hid behind the carriage. At this time, rolling logs and stones kept rolling down the mountain. Wu Jun had nowhere to escape, and could only wait for death.

It turned out that the Qi army deliberately let go of the former army and spotted Fucha's central army to launch an attack.The former army wanted to return to the defense, but there were huge boulders, bows, arrows and logs all over the mountains, and the valley was so narrow that it was really impossible to squeeze in.The rear army didn't know what happened, they could only hear wailing all over the mountains and plains. After looking carefully, they saw movement on the mountain. They wanted to catch up, but they were squeezed by the people who retreated in front.

Fu Chai hid for a while, until he could no longer hear the sound of the bowstring, then he poked his head out, and was shocked when he saw it.It turned out that Lu Ao personally led the troops to come in from the mouth of the valley, and killed the panic-stricken front army in a mess. At the same time, the Qi troops on both sides also came down the mountain, and the shouts of killing were loud.Sure enough, the Wu army was in chaos and was routed. Fucha watched helplessly as the Qi army approached from all directions, and he was desperate.

At this time, an arrow shot towards his forehead, he hurriedly hid aside, but immediately another arrow followed.There was no way for Fu Chai to retreat, and he looked at the deadly arrow with a panicked expression, but he couldn't even move.He secretly regretted not listening to Zheng Dan's words, but now, I'm afraid it's too late!

Just as Fu Chai was about to close his eyes and wait to die, someone grabbed the arrow, and then he was dragged onto the horse's back.Fu Chai looked back, and it was Zheng Dan.I saw that she was covered in blood, and I didn't know if it was hers or the Qi army sergeant's.

Zheng Dan pulled a bow, pinched the horse's stomach with both feet, and the horse ran backwards like flying.Zheng Dan drew the bowstring, shouted to get out of the way, and shot an arrow, and the three Wu soldiers fell down in a row.When the rear army saw that General Zheng had brought King Wu to kill his own family, he hurriedly gave way to both sides. Those who didn't make way in time were either shot over by Zheng Dan, or fell on the ground and let the horse step over.When Qi Jun saw that Fu Chai had run away, all the bows and arrows were aimed at Fu Chai and Zheng Dan in an instant, and the dense rain of arrows arrived in an instant.Zheng Dan was quick-witted, and pulled a large banner over without looking at it, and rolled it backwards without looking at it. Most of the arrows were rolled away, but there were still a few arrows that slipped through the net and shot on her arms and back.Although Zheng Dan was in pain, he didn't dare to stay, and sped up and ran backwards.After blocking a few waves of arrow rain, she didn't abandon the flag until the strength of the bow and arrow was too weak, and she calmed down slightly. Her back hurt like hell, and it was connected together. She couldn't feel how many arrows she had hit.

After running wildly out of the valley, Zheng Dan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the banner of the Wu army camped in the distance. He was about to call out, but suddenly his eyes went dark and he fell off his horse.

I don't know how long it took, and suddenly there was an unprecedented pain in his back. Zheng Dan opened his eyes with a cry, but found that he was no longer on the battlefield, but in the tent.Fu Chai sat sideways with tears on his face, and several military doctors were busy running in and out.With a click, a bloody arrowhead was thrown on the plate. Zheng Dan knew that it was a military doctor who plucked it out of his body.At this time, his back was hot, and another burst of severe pain hit, Zheng Dan hurriedly hugged the pillow and bit it, sweating all over his face.

Fu Chai felt that Zheng Dan was moving, so he turned around and held her hand tightly:

"No home...be patient, a few arrows are shot too deep, and the arrows can't be pulled out...if you hurt, just scream twice, don't hold back."

Zheng Dan nodded, but buried her head in the pillow, she felt so stupid for a moment.She couldn't figure it out, why did she risk her life to save Fucha?If Fu Chai died in battle, and Wu's army was not in the country, and Wu Zixu happened to say that he was sick and would not go to court, this would be a great opportunity for Yue to attack Wu!But at that time, she didn't think about anything, she just thought that the person beside her was an important person who must not die, so she rescued him desperately.Probably it was Fan Li who said that Fu Chai should not be killed easily, and she remembered it deeply... But now, if Fu Chai died at the hands of Qi Jun, why should she save him?

She hammered her head angrily, hating herself for being kind and ignorant.Fu Chai thought she was in severe pain, so he hurriedly said to the military doctor:

"You take it easy, take it easy, don't let her hurt too much..."

The military doctor dug out the last arrow, wiped off his sweat and said, "It's over. Your Majesty is really not a mortal, she's in such pain, she didn't say a word... I've never seen it in my life, even a handsome man, it's hard to be so strong! "

Zheng Dan let out a long sigh of relief when she heard the words, and after the military doctor bandaged her, she raised her head and looked at Fu Chai, whose face was full of tears:

"Your Majesty, the ministers and concubines are fine, don't cry...how decent is it to be seen by others."

Fu Chai shook his head and patted Zheng Dan's arm lightly: "You are homeless, I admire you, how can I be able to get a wife like you... I will never let you go to the battlefield again. The widow will retreat and accompany you back to the palace to cultivate well."

Zheng Dan said: "After a disastrous defeat, more than half of the casualties may be lost. It is time to retreat. However, the retreat must look like a retreat. You must not disperse like birds and beasts, and let people take advantage of the victory to pursue."

Husband almost nodded: "You are like this...you are still thinking about the widow, the widow...the widow even doubted you before, damn it!"

Zheng Dan wanted to slap himself twice, and secretly scolded himself for acting too much, why did he really think of himself as a general of Wu?She said it sounded nice, but it was just a small work, and said it ugly, she was just a chess piece - the players were Fan Li and Gou Jian, how could she play this chess piece indiscriminately?

Fu Chai stayed with Zheng Dan all night, seeing that Zheng Dan couldn't sleep because of the pain, he didn't sleep, and chatted with her.No matter how hard Ren Zhengdan insisted, he was still soft-hearted after all, and a little moved.This Fucha is also pitiful, if she was not born in a noble family, she should be a very good husband - she herself is also pitiful, if she hadn't entered the Wu Palace by accident, she should have settled down early.Listening to Fu Chai's tender words, Zheng Dan couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. It would be great if Dr. Fan was sitting next to him, or it would be better if it was Yi Guang...

But even though Zheng Dan regretted her benevolence, her actions were not without benefits, forcibly turning a beauty trick into a bitter trick.In the past few days of recuperating, Fu Chai has been busy in and out, serving tea and water himself. It seems that this heart has been firmly eaten to death by Zheng Dan.

The author has something to say: Zheng Dan: Come on, why can’t I be black-bellied with such a black-bellied identity.
