Seeing He Ran calling Dongfang Ao aside to whisper, Chen Min knew that this military advisor was determined to win Master Yuan Yin, and he couldn't help but feel happy. His biggest purpose in offering the shooting bow was of course to encourage Yi Guo to destroy Jing'an.
Uncle, since this goal cannot be achieved, it would be a good ending to let Yi Guo poach the Yuanyin family away from Jing'an Bo. From this, it can be seen that Chen Min is not a person with grand plans.
Yun Ye is a brilliant gentleman. When he returned, he found He Ran holding the soul-shooting bow and said: "Second brother, give this bow to Dongfang Ao. I think he really likes it. You have already given me the gold-sharing sword. If you want to shoot the soul again,
Just bow...hehe."
"You are my brother. If I don't give you a good thing, who will give it to you? Just keep it. I have already arranged for Dongfang Ao to get the Choi Lang Bow. Whether he can get it or not depends on his ability."
"So that's it." Yun Ye happily put away her shooting bow, "I heard that it's very difficult to open the Choi Lang Bow, but he has extraordinary physical strength. Maybe he can really win the beauty."
"Envy? If you can move your younger siblings into a side room, you can go with him."
"Forget it, I have the will to shoot souls." Yun Ye knew that he would be unserious if he continued to speak, so he hid without saying a word.
When the 10,000 Yi troops and the 10,000 troops of Sibu secretly crossed Xiangjing and stationed themselves in the valley near the prairie, the envoys sent by King Fan to watch the ceremony also arrived in Andu. The envoy was Dajiang Hongkong'er.
The official position in Jiang is equivalent to Dazai. The reason why King Fan sent such a high-level official as an envoy was not because Chen Min was kind, but because He Ran was kind. When He Ran decided to lead troops to Fan State, he sent someone to notify King Fan.
, asking him to send a capable minister to attend Xiangguo's founding ceremony, and then lead the Yi army into the prairie.
Hongkong'er is in his forties, shorter than ordinary people. He is dressed in a luxurious fur coat decorated with silver rings and jade. He has a yellow complexion, a bald head and a short beard, and an ordinary appearance, but his small eyes are sparkling, and he can tell you at first sight.
He is a shrewd person.
Seeing He Ran, Hongkong'er was obviously stunned for a moment. It was obvious that He Ran's appearance was beyond his expectation. He was only slightly stunned before he smiled and saluted with an extremely affectionate expression, and then greeted the little princess again.
Got the gift.
After greetings were finished, He Ran dismissed the attendants, leaving only the little princess in the room to interpret.
The little princess felt particularly cordial when she saw Hongkong'er, and kept chattering to him with questions. Hongkong'er smiled and answered a few questions, and then smiled and gestured to He Ran with his eyes. The little princess then stopped.
He smiled slightly apologetically at He Ran.
"Please tell me about the current situation of the prairie." He Ran said to the little princess.
Hongkong'er spoke calmly. After listening to a few words, the little princess frowned and asked questions in an anxious voice. Hongkong'er motioned for her to translate for He Ran first.
The little princess said to He Ran impatiently: "You are really troublesome. I can speak your language. If you are so good, why don't you learn a little bit of our language? I'm so anxious. He said that Dongxing Tuozimang now supports Xin
Yantu Liang is good, let Brother Wang give up the position of King Fan to Xin Yantu Liang."
"If you find me troublesome, I won't care. I'll go back tomorrow." He Ran threatened.
"Okay, okay, I'll apologize to you. You should quickly lead the troops to help Brother Wang. There's almost a fight over there." The little princess said anxiously.
"If you want me to help, just translate every word he said carefully. A little mistake can cause serious problems. You don't have to worry about the war. Once I understand the situation, I will arrange it properly and lead the troops in a hurry.
If you go, it might cause trouble."
"You're talking nonsense! How can leading troops cause trouble? It's better to arrive a minute earlier." The little princess wished that He Ran could leave immediately.
"If you don't understand, don't worry. If they just go to Xinyan and Tuliang has not made up their mind to go to war with your brother Wang, then they will probably be forced to take action immediately when they hear that Yi State has sent troops. So
I will never send troops hastily without understanding the situation."
The little princess felt that what he said made sense, nodded vigorously, and turned to urge Hongkong to speak quickly.
King Fan has found out that Zhao Guo secretly instigated Xin Yantuliang's rebellion. It was also because of Zhao Guo that he defected to Xin Yantuliang. As for the fact that they all went to Shun Guo, there were already clues. Now the grassland is in chaos.
, they no longer covered it up, and had openly communicated with Shun Guo.
He Ran didn't say anything after hearing this, and asked about the available troops from all parties.
Hongkong'er didn't hide it. King Fan only had 50,000 troops. The main reason was that his tribe had lost so much in the battle of Zhao. Xin Yantuliang's available troops were about 70,000, and there were almost 30,000 for the eastward journey.
They all have nearly 40,000 soldiers, and the rest of the tribes combined can also muster 60,000 to 70,000 horses. The Fan people are nomadic tribes who live in pursuit of water and grass. Everyone can ride and shoot well, and men between the ages of fifteen and fifty can join the army.
To serve the people is to serve as a soldier. Hongkong'er explained that the number he mentioned only refers to the strong soldiers. If all those who can fight are included, then the number of King Fan's side will be greater than that of all parties. After all,
The Fanwang section has the largest population.
He Ran was secretly worried. The situation was worse than he expected. Shun and Zhao were devastated by the war and did not have much strength. It was difficult to do anything in the Central Plains for a while. Now that there were ready-made soldiers at their disposal, they would definitely not hesitate to use them.
If Yu Li makes a big fuss, the battle on the grassland may be more dangerous and difficult than the battle in the Central Plains.
It took nearly two hours before He Ran stopped asking questions. As He Ran asked, the admiration in Hongkong'er's eyes became stronger and stronger, because just by listening to the questions he asked, he knew that this young man
The military advisor has a unique vision, a thorough mind and a comprehensive mind. It is no luck that he has gained such a high reputation at this age.
After sending Hongkong'er away, He Ran fell into deep thought for a long time. He finally figured out the general situation of Fan State, but when it came time to think about specific countermeasures, the speed of Zhao's actions was beyond his expectation. It seemed that his side had fallen into a disadvantage.
.
Jing'anbo also arrived at Andu on the second day after Hongkong'er arrived. Judging from the time, he set off the next day after seeing the people sent by He Ran. As soon as Jing'anbo entered Andu, the news spread throughout Andu
This was not because of his special status, but because of his weird behavior. After entering the territory under Chen Min's jurisdiction, he put a veil on his head like a woman, and walked like that,
When I entered Andu, I was still dressed like this.
After He Ran heard the news, he was very funny and didn't understand what he meant. However, Chen Min guessed the mystery and provoked He Ran: "He is following the example of the ancients. The area he was in previously belonged to Qi State. For hundreds of years,
Before being destroyed by Shun, King Shunde knew that the wise minister Ji Ling of Qi State had a great talent and wanted to recruit him for his own use. When Ji Ling was summoned to see King Shunde, he had already covered his face to show his loyalty to Qi State and to King Shunde.
disdain."
"What's the final outcome?" He Ran asked with great interest.
Chen Min hesitated for a moment and said: "King Shun treated him as a distinguished guest. Three years later, Ji Ling finally agreed to serve the country of Shun. In the end... he finally became a famous minister."
He Ran smiled and said: "I'm afraid he already thought about serving Shunguo when he was veiled." He looked down on those who wanted to be slaves and build memorial arches at the same time.
"I saw the same thing as the military advisor, but...hehe, everyone in the world praises him for his loyalty and righteousness. His story is widely circulated in Shun Kingdom, but we don't know what kind of person he is." Chen Min wanted to use this to provoke.
, so I did not tell the whole story about Ji Ling. In fact, Ji Ling initially preferred to die rather than go to see King Shunde. King Shunde threatened the lives of his entire clan and visited him personally, so Ji Ling came out veiled.
After the meeting, he enumerated the seven unjust acts committed by King Shunde. King Shunde accepted the punishment calmly and not only did not impose any crime, he also took him back to the royal city and always treated him as a distinguished guest. Three years later, Ji Ling agreed to serve as an official when he saw that King Shunde was indeed a benevolent king.
Effective.
