447. Chapter 447 Strange Messenger

Su Qin heard the report outside the tent and was worried that another emergency situation would occur in the coalition. Similar to the last time the Chu army general Jing Feng and the chief general Qu Xin, he finally wanted to draw his sword to face each other and make a duel, and it was a big fight.

He put on his clothes as fast as possible, and at the same time replied to the guard outside the door: "Come in and report."

The guard then pushed open the gate of the Central Army treasure tent, and after coming in, he bowed and reported: "Report to the commander, the envoy of the Qin army arrived outside Chongguang City, calling the door there, saying that he wanted to see the commander of the coalition army. I wonder if the commander gave in and let him in?"

Su Qin said "Oh" strangely, and he even suspected that he had heard it wrong. After he hesitating for a while, he realized that he had heard it wrong. He thought for a while, and thought: "The Qin army is so strange, the two armies are confronting each other, and they are about to start a war, what envoys they sent?"

Su Qin thought about it and felt that it was inappropriate for him to come and do not see him. He seemed to be afraid of the Qin people. He replied to the guards: "Tell me my order and let the Qin army envoy come to my central army tent. I want to meet him in person."

The guard replied: "As long as you follow the order!" He turned around and was about to leave. He had already walked to the gate. Su Qin called him from behind and said: "Wait a moment, don't rush to spread the order to open the door and let people in."

He ordered the messenger and said, "You go and find General Zhou Shao now and let him come to see me." The messenger responded again and hurried to find Zhou Shao. After a while, Zhou Shao arrived at the Zhongjun Treasure Statue.

Zhou Shao heard that Su Qin had asked him to come to the Central Army early in the morning and guessed that Su Qin must have a very urgent matter. Therefore, he ran all the way, and the messenger followed him, so tired that he was out of breath.

Zhou Shao entered the tent and ran out of sweat, and he was still wiping the sweat on his face. Zhou Shao was originally blushing and looked even more red. As soon as he came in, he asked non-stop: "I don't know what instructions did the Prime Minister call me?"

Seeing that Zhou Shao was enthusiastic and earnest, Su Qin cherished him diligent in official duties and said, "General Zhou, don't be anxious, let's take a rest first."

Zhou Shao replied, "It's okay, I'm not tired. The Prime Minister just orders if he has anything to do."

Su Qin said: "Now an inexplicable Qin army envoy came to the west gate of Chongguang City, saying that he was asking to see the commander, so you go and pick him up and bring the person to me."

When Zhou Shao heard this, he showed an angry look on his face and replied: "What envoys in the Qin army sent to come? If you want to fight, why do you have so much nonsense? You have to see the commander, you are so beautiful. I'll just go for the Prime Minister and let him go."

When Zhou Shao talked about the word "send", his teeth were chewed. When Su Qin saw his expression, he knew that he was resentful to the Qin people. The so-called "send" probably means going to fight with people coming. At the very least, driving people away, or even killing people in the future with one sword.

Su Qin smiled and said, "As the saying goes: When two countries fight, envoys come if they don't kill them. There is no reason why we won't even see each other's envoys because of fear or hatred. You should go and pick up the envoys of the Qin army."

Zhou Shao suppressed the anger in his heart and nodded at Su Qin. Su Qin then said: "I could have asked the messenger to announce the visiting people directly, but I thought it was inappropriate, and I was worried that he had observed our preparations. Now I asked you to pick up the envoy, in name, but in fact, it was to let you pay attention to the whereabouts and eyes of the visitor."

Su Qin added: "After all, at the critical moment of the confrontation between the two armies, we must not let people see the military information of the coalition forces of the coalition forces."

Zhou Shao came up with an idea and said, "Then I might as well cover his eyes and bring it into the city. Why bother with that?"

Su Qin also amused Zhou Shao's words, and he said, "What kind of words are like? It blindfolded his eyes. It doesn't seem like we are weak! You just need to take him into the city and pick out those alleys without troops stationed, turn a few more turns, and turn him faint and then go to the central army. You'll be fine."

When Zhou Shao heard this, he immediately replied: "Don't worry, Prime Minister, this is easy to deal with. It depends on me. I will never give up until I am dizzy."

After Zhou Shao received the order, he went to pick up the Qin army envoy excitedly. Su Qin looked at Zhou Shao's back and laughed in his heart, saying, "This is Zhou Shao, who is a straightforward man who will avenge his revenge. He suffered a lot from the Qin army. I guess he will not be able to spare this Qin envoy this time."

Su Qin then waited for Zhou Shao to bring the Qin army envoy in the Central Army treasure tent, and it took more than an hour to wait. He kept looking at the Kelu next to the Shuai Case, and as time passed by, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he saw that Zhou Shao had not brought the person over yet. He thought to himself: "It's almost done. Zhou Shao is going to mess with the person coming!"

Sure enough, when Zhou Shao brought the Qin army envoy, the envoy was almost tortured by him and fainted on the ground. The man gasped heavily, arrived in the tent, bowed to Su Qin, and after the meeting ceremony, he simply bowed his body and gagged.

Su Qin sat firmly behind the commander's case, waved his hand to the people and said, "You said you were the envoy of Qin, but what kind of thing is there to rely on faith?"

The man raised his head, untied a small cloth pocket from his waist, and asked Zhou Shao to hand it to Su Qin. When the visitor raised his head, Su Qin suddenly realized that the man looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere else. But it seemed that he didn't know him at all.

Su Qin urgently thought about his acquaintance in the Qin army, and could not remember what dealings he had with the person he had ever had.

He took the small pocket, took out a silk book from it, opened it and read it. The silk book turned out to be a letter written by Sima Cuo to him.

In the letter, Sima Cuo first greeted Su Qin and said a few polite words, because the two of them had fought side by side after all, and they could be considered as familiars.

Next, Sima chou explained his intention to send envoys. He said that it was already winter and spring was coming in a blink of an eye. The two armies confronted each other in Mianchi, and there would be no winner in a short period of time. The soldiers were thinking about returning day and night, so it would be better for the two armies to maintain their current territory and stop the army.

Sima Cuo proposed: The Qin army promised not to attack Shangguan City again, and the Union Army also promised to withdraw from Chongguang City. In this way, both sides took a step back, leaving room for the sea and the sky was wide open.

After reading the letter from Sima Cuo sent by the Qin army envoy, Su Qin thought it was simply a big deal. He thought: "I am not going to retreat whenever I want to withdraw. You must know that we have put together these troops into one another. Now, Sima Cuo easily said, we will send the princes and soldiers home. What about you Qin army, of course you come whenever you want, and leave whenever you want. Isn't it the matter of Ying Si's edict?"

Su Qin gently placed the letter on the Zheng Case, sneered contemptuously, and said to the envoy: "General Sima Cuo sent you here, right? Is it the one who sent the letter? If it was just this matter, I would like to send you a sentence to Sima Cuo. Tell him that if the coalition forces of the Union of the Zong were withdrawn, he must give up all the territory of Mianchi, and the Qin army retreated to Hangu Pass, and promised that he would never invade the six countries in the future."

He sneered and said, "I expect you to bring my words back, and Sima Cuo will not agree to my conditions. So I think your trip is in vain."

After hearing Su Qin's reply, the messenger was not angry or angry, and his face was quite calm, as if he had expected Su Qin's reply.

He bowed to Su Qin again, bowed his hand and said, "I have another private matter here. I want to ask Prime Minister Su. I wonder if Prime Minister Su can be kind and agree to me?"

Su Qin felt something strange, and he replied, "But it's okay to talk about it, I think it's going to be something."

The envoy said, "My surname is Pang Ci, and I am the younger brother of Pang Hui, a general under Wei Zuo. I want to meet General Ning Jun, a good friend of his brother, during his lifetime. I wonder if the Prime Minister can agree? Of course, I also know that now is the most important moment for the two armies to prepare for war. It is said that you are so nervous that you can't even let go of flies and mosquitoes flying by. If the Prime Minister makes things difficult, I won't bother you."

Zhou Shao listened to the envoy's words and derogatory intentions of defaming the Hezong coalition forces, and he widened his big eyes at the visitor, as if Su Qin was about to rush over and beat someone up with orders.

However, Su Qin did not mean to scold him. As soon as he heard the name of the messenger, he immediately remembered it. It turned out that the messenger was Wei Seo's former confidant, and later the younger brother of General Pang Hui who rebelled at the time of the battle! No wonder he looked familiar with him. After careful look, he really looked a little similar.

Because of Pang Hui's betrayal, Wei Seo fled to Xianyang and was chased by Qin Jun Ying Si on the bank of the river, which eventually led to Wei Seo committing suicide by grief and anger. Thinking about those scenes, they are still vivid in my mind.

Pang Hui was finally killed by himself under Qin Jun Ying Si's car. He can still clearly recall his helplessness when he died.

Su Qin remembered the tragic past again, and he couldn't help but feel sad again, and he missed the past and friends. He killed Pang Ci's brother with his hand. When he saw his younger brother today, he couldn't help but feel strange.

Su Qin was driven by emotions and showed a sad look on his face, but Pang Ci did not change his expression at all, and he seemed indifferent. You should know that he was facing his brother-killing enemy now, but he was able to control himself completely. His fair face was still calm, as if he didn't know about this at all.

Su Qin was a little hesitant. Out of confidentiality of military information, he certainly did not want Pang Ci to see Ning Jun, because at this moment, a few conversations might reveal the big secret. However, out of human nature, he had to consider the relationship between Ning Jun and Pang Ci. Pang Hui and Ning Jun were both capable close friends under Wei Zuo, and they had a close relationship with each other and had an extraordinary relationship.

Su Qin thought about it and still felt that it should be more cautious. He asked Pang Ci, "You proposed to meet General Ning Jun. What's the matter? Can you give us some clues first?"
