Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 334: cold lips

Ran Qiu said: "Hu Sima asked his ministers to report to the doctor, the robber Zhi invaded Yuncheng, it was impossible!"

When he heard that the robber Zhi attacked Yuncheng, Zhao Wuxi was shocked, and only thought of the saying that the mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind. Baidu search to force literature network. He and Yang Hu and Sanhuan were intriguing in Qufu, Lucheng. When the fight was in full swing, he ignored the villain Jie Xiong, the villain! He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Ran Qiu say "no way", but his back was already soaked in cold sweat.

Looking at Ran Qiu's dry lips, he asked someone to pass the water bag.

"Don't worry, you drink water first and then talk about it slowly."

After Ran Qiu took it, he didn't put the water bag to his mouth, but bowed his head and his voice became heavy: "Yuncheng is safe, but something happened to Zhongdu, Zhongdu, and the thieves are besieging there!"

"What, Zhongdu was also attacked by the thief!?" Zhao Wuxi's heart sank, while Zilu's expression changed, and he was about to turn around and get into the car.

"Zi Lu, where are you going?" Zhao Wuxi quickly grabbed him.

"The teacher has something to do, and the disciple takes it. Naturally, I want to go to Zhongdu to rescue the master!"

"Do you know what the current situation is in Zhongdu? How many pirates are there? If you go alone, you can really fight against thousands of people and help Confucius?"

"I……"

A hurried questioning made Zi Lu speechless.

Zhao Wuxi sighed and turned his eyes to Ran Qiu: "Ziyou, you continue to speak."

Ran Qiu was a slow person, and although he was anxious, he still explained things in an orderly manner: "On the third night of the first day, we captured Yi Temple, and in the second half of the night, Wai Guo was suddenly attacked. Hu rebelled against the army, only to realize that it was a group of thieves after the battle, Hu Sima led Yun Ren desperately to resist, and it was not until the next morning that the thieves were driven out, and Yun Ren was killed and injured nearly 100..."

Although the group of thieves failed to enter the city, there should be no major material losses in Yuncheng, but there were nearly 100 casualties. It also made Zhao Wuxi feel distressed.

The timing of this Robber Zhi was really accurate. It happened to be the time when all the forces in the country of Lu were fighting each other, and he had no time to take into account his time period. Yuncheng just changed hands, if it weren't for the tiger, he would have dealt with it properly. Ran Qiu also had experience in fighting against pirates, and perhaps he really followed his path, making Zhao Wuxi's two months of hard work come to nothing.

"Hu Sima felt that this matter was no trivial matter, so he asked his ministers to come to Qufu to tell the doctor, who wants to pass through the Central Capital. However, there are also some groups of thieves besieging the city and looting autumn grain!"

Zhao Wuxi could see that why was Ran Qiu not in a hurry? He should have set off at noon on the fourth day of the first year, and arrived here on the sixth day of the new year. He traveled a full two hundred miles. He didn't sleep a night for two days and two nights, so he was so haggard.

At this time, the personality difference between Zi Lu and Ran Qiu was revealed. Ran Qiu was introverted and modest, and a little unconfident. But in the face of emergency, it can be stable. Zi Lu is determined to forge ahead, but he is easily impulsive.

"Can you find out how many pirates are there?"

"When the minister was in Yuncheng, he took the morning light to climb the city, and saw that there were two or three thousand people in the city. When he arrived at Zhongdu, he found that there were also three or four thousand people besieging the city, and there were constantly bandits from the west gathering to besiege. There is no limit to it.”

Zhao Wuxi once heard Zifu He say that Robber Zhi claimed to have nearly 10,000 soldiers, enough to attack cities and lands and invade the feudal lords. I thought it was an exaggeration, but now that the group of thieves is launched, I know that this is true.

Although under Confucius' rule, Zhongdu City claimed to have "established a system in which the nation's life is guaranteed and the dead can be buried, and it advocates eating different foods according to the age and taking on different duties according to the size of the ability." Picking up leftovers, the utensils are not carved and counterfeit."

But in fact, most of them are idealized plans, because of the influx of war refugees. Still not rich. It was not until the end of autumn that a batch of grain was shipped from Linqiu and Qufu, and the grain was harvested during the autumn harvest, and the warehouse was barely half filled.

However, compared with the surrounding Yuncheng and other places, Zhongdu is a place where the people are barely able to feed themselves. In the eyes of the thieves, there must be plenty of surplus food to loot to help them survive the cold winter. After attacking Yuncheng to no avail, he turned eastward.

Wu Xie asked again, "What was the situation in Zhongduyi when you left?"

Ran Qiu said: "The robbers have already swept away the fields and cottages outside the city, and they are starting to cut down trees and ants to attack the city. At the top of the city, there are brothers and sisters who are organizing the city people to resist. It's too close, and the people inside can't get out, only know that the outer Guo Daqi is still there!"

"The city is safe, the master is safe, this is good, this is good."

Zi Lu breathed a sigh of relief, while Zhao Wuxi pondered for a moment and said:

"Confucius taught you about the military formation of the two of you, and you are quite knowledgeable about soldiers. It should be no problem to defend against thieves..."

Having said that, Zhao Wuxi knew that the situation in Central Capital was not optimistic.

It was also in his unfortunate prophecy more than two months ago that when Confucius encountered a food crisis, the method of disarming himself had indeed produced a bad result.

Zigong once asked Confucius about politics, Confucius said, enough food, enough soldiers, in addition to the people's trust. Zigong asked again, if only two were left, which of the three should be removed first? Confucius' first choice was to go to the army.

Confucius disbanded the soldiers of the city and borrowed corn from the neighboring city on the basis of the weapons and armor in the treasury. If it was a peaceful era, it would have been understandable, but today is a chaotic world. Without soldiers, it is impossible to protect the lives of ordinary people. The city is much weaker. Now it seems that this robber Zhi is really an opportunist, his eyes are extremely vicious, and he bites the soft underbelly of Zhongdu.

What's more, among the three disciples of Confucius who knew military affairs, Ran Qiu's skill in battle formation should be the first, Zilu Yongguan was the second in the three armies, and the young Fan Chi used to follow Ran Qiu to fight, but he was the third. But now Ran Qiuzi Lu is by Zhao Wuxi's side, and Fan Chi has returned to his hometown because of the death of his father, and Confucius has to carry the military affairs of Zhongdu alone.

Although Confucius is known as a knowledgeable soldier, his talent has not been reflected very much in history, so Zhao Wuxi is skeptical about this, maybe it is just a theoretical school?

"The minister has already brought Hu Sima's words to him. I will say the next words as a disciple of the master. I have assisted the master in dealing with the military and political affairs of the Central Capital. I know that the city walls are low and there are few soldiers, so I'm afraid I can't hold on for long. Doctor please save Zhongdu!"

Ran Qiu thought more deeply than Zilu and realized the seriousness of the matter. He bowed again, and even Zilu bowed to Zhao Wuxi for the first time:

"You are just being reckless. I can't defeat thousands of thieves alone. Please save the master!"

This middle-aged man was stunned, and even if Zhao Wuxi helped him, he couldn't get up.

The situation was a bit passive, Zhao Wuxi thought for a moment, and then showed a sense of righteousness. The way thousands of people have gone to me:

"As the saying goes: You can't take pirates, which means you can't take the invaders lightly. In the past, the doctor of the Yu Kingdom, Gong Zhiqi, said that 'the auxiliary car is dependent on each other, and the lips are dead and the teeth are cold'. This is the relationship between Yuncheng and Zhongdu. Zhongdu, Yuncheng's watch is also If there is a loss in Zhongdu, Yuncheng will definitely suffer disaster. Besides, Confucius is in danger. Although I have only known him for two months, we have been in a relationship with each other for a long time. Is there any reason not to save it? I agree to your request, Erzi Get up and talk first."

Zilu and Ran Qiu were overjoyed, but they didn't know that in a short period of time, Zhao Wucai thought about many things.

In Zhao Wuxi's memory, Dao Zhi seems to have had a bit of an intersection with Confucius in history. But it is not clear when, it may have been tampered and fabricated by later generations, and it has long lost its original appearance. But nowadays, what is happening in the onslaught of Robber Zhi is what is going on. He has a stake in his heart to save Confucius or not.

First of all, Zhongdu is the only way to connect Qufu and Xibi. Yuncheng has just been won, the situation is not stable, and it is also the first target of Robber Zhi. If you let it go, you will fall. Then the Tu Road in the north of Onozawa will no longer be safe to pass, and the thieves who have obtained the money from the Central Capital will even attack Yuncheng again.

Secondly, there are many Confucian disciples under Zhao Wuxi's service, Zigong, Ran Qiu, Gong Xihua. There are also Zi Lu who gradually began to admire him, and Zai Yu, who are all temporary choices, rare talents in the world today. According to Zhao Wuxi's observation, these early Confucian people were mixed, and there were people who were not able to use empty talk about benevolence and virtue. But there are also many people who do practical things, and saving Zhongdu is beneficial and harmless to win the hearts of this group of people.

In the end, he still had seven or eight hundred soldiers in his hand, and after supplementing the arsenal in Qufu, the city of Lu was better equipped. If he and the Robber Zhi were to fight in the swamp, it would not be possible. It shouldn't be difficult to get around.

On the opposite side, Zi Lu's first sentence after jumping up was: "I would like to refuse for the doctor!"

Ran Qiu said, "I would like to be Hou Yan."

Qian refused to be the forward, and Hou Yan was the scout to explore the way. Although the two had opposite personalities, they both loved Confucius the same way. Zhao Wuxi couldn't help thinking, if he was in danger, would they do the same?

I just hope that after rescuing Zhongdu this time, they can be like a teacher!

Having made up his mind, Zhao Wuxi ordered without delay: "Ran Qiu is on standby, Zilu, look at your outfit, what is your status now?"

Zilu glanced at his official uniform, and then he reacted: "Return the person..."

"Welcome to send, and to return people who were dispatched as a deputy, since you know, please continue to fulfill your orders."

Zilu felt very puzzled and aggrieved: "How can I leave the Master behind!"

"What you should do now is to go north immediately and go to Yangguan to recruit Yanghu and the rest of the party." Zhao Wuxi was indifferent and stubborn, and refused to let Zilu go with him.

Ran Qiu also sensed something was wrong. At this moment, Zhao Wuxi no longer had the kindness he had been before, but instead changed his identity to command Zilu, even though he and Zilu had not formally established such a relationship.

Zi Lu was stopped by Zhao Wuxi, and he was also moved.

He patted his chest and said angrily, "I used to be mean, courageous, and straight-minded. I wore a rooster feather crest on my head, and a long sword decorated with the mane of a male dolphin to show my uniqueness. I used to **** the master many times. Don't worry, I first subdued me with great strength, and then designed a little ritual and music to guide me. Only then did I understand my own vulgarity, so I wore a Confucian clothes, and took the gift of apprenticeship. ."

"I have been following the Master for more than ten years. Although I have a stupid temperament, the Master has never disliked me. He is reproachful, but he loves me very much. All I can do is to keep him from talking badly. Yu Er. He once said that if the road is not good and he floats in the sea, he will definitely follow him to Sangyu and Yuyuan. I am afraid that it is only me! The master has high hopes for me, and now China has been robbed. Personally draw a sword and hit the thief on the wall, but the doctor will tell you, how can I avoid it, eh!?"

Zi Lu's face was flushed red, and his hand was tightly gripping the hilt of the long sword. At the top of the hilt was a bronze horse-fighting **** sculpture.

Horse Fighting Chicken~lightnovelpub.net~ This wild pheasant is extremely brave, and even dares to fight with natural enemies such as fox and itachi. Therefore, it is often embroidered on the flag of the vanguard to boost morale, which is similar to Zilu who was furious at this time.

Facing Zi Lu, whose breathing was fluctuating and glaring, and Ran Qiu, who was trying to discourage him, Zhao Wuxi stepped forward, his head held high, and his aura was even stronger than Zi Lu!

He said something like this...

He completely let this unruly and unruly Confucian scholar, who thought he would never have a chance to conquer it, was convinced and lowered his head! (To be continued.)
