Chapter 211】

Chi Heng continued: "Hu Shuo, if you are given enough troops and authority, I believe that not only Jinzhou is not a problem, but Jingli and other states can be encroached on to show off your ambitions. You once competed with me in the snow, and I remember correctly At that time, you were much more agile. It was half a year ago that you injured your right arm in order to save your elder brother who fell into the enemy's line, right? Compared with you, your two elder brothers can only be said to be brute force and impulsive, but you Having to be at the mercy of them, I wonder why?"

Why, there is no need to talk, Hu Shuo is too concerned about brotherhood.

Hu Shuo didn't know it well.

"It's just because they are elder brothers, isn't it? Brother and younger brother are just a matter of coming and going. If you want to take it seriously, it's a matter. If you don't take him seriously, it's not a matter. It's enough to respect him enough. Why bother?" Listen to all the wrong ones together? Then what do you live for all your life? If this is the case, how did the saying that the hero was born in youth come from ancient times? "Hu Shuo, when I was in Ximi, I wanted to tell you: Return to my Qianyuan army, and all the soldiers in Jinzhou belong to you. I will send another [-] soldiers for you to conquer Jingli Prefecture."

The fighting there seems to have stopped.

Hu Shuo calmed down, and turned to him: "The Jinzhou soldiers will be dispatched by me, and another [-] soldiers will be dispatched, is that your bargaining chip?"

"Yes, the condition of the exchange is that you need to conquer Jingli Prefecture instead of staying in Jinzhou."

"Why didn't you tell me before?"

"Because I have my eyes on you. But you are very obedient to your brother, so I have to see what kind of people Hu Boss and Hu Lao Er are. Now it seems that in terms of my employment principles, the two of them must not Become a general of the Qianyuan Army. Today I will make my words clear: only belong to you, not you three brothers of the Hu family. If I get Brother Ling, I will not dare to send a hundred thousand soldiers. Don’t think I am generous , I believe that today's one hundred thousand, next year you will return my million troops!"

Hu Shuo couldn't believe it, and laughed twice: "Ha, I really can't figure it out. When I thought you would be tempted, you didn't say a word; when you thought you would kill them all, you threw out the conditions... You are right, I I’m really aggrieved, I didn’t stop my elder brother when he was going to send troops tonight, and there was a dispute. Our Hu clan doesn’t allow brothers to turn against each other, so I’ll take your bargaining chip first!” After finishing speaking, he turned around and left. .

Behind him, Chi Heng shouted: "Don't forget you still have Hu Laoer, I don't want to waste my troops for no reason."

Boss Hu was captured alive.

In the net that Chi Heng deliberately opened, Boss Hu was like a slamming fly, the more he struggled, the tighter the net was drawn.Chi Heng looked at the boss Hu who was yelling with satisfaction, thinking that this big brother raised Hu Shuo, so he couldn't let go of his fatherly and brotherly feelings.Although it is a weakness, it is also understandable. It is much better than a heartless person.

Chi Heng served good tea and food, and ordered people to watch closely, not to be careless.

In July, the evening wind was pleasant, and Chi Heng slept outside the camp with his limbs stretched out. Not long after, Zhuang Qi came to inquire, and it was nothing more than how to deal with Boss Hu.

Chi Heng stretched his waist: "When Hu Shuo thinks it through, there will be a way to deal with it. There is no rush now."

Zhuang Qi stood still, did not speak but did not leave either.

Chi Heng patted the mat: "Zhuang Qi, you lie down too, and you won't feel guilty if you lie down and watch the stars!" Looking up at the vast starry sky with his arms on his pillow, his mood was extremely open.But after saying this, he regretted it, and really wanted to slap himself on the mouth.

Zhuang Qi lay down slowly: "Are you sure about Hu Shuo?"

Chi Heng grunted and said: "Now, Hu Shuo must be looking for the second brother Hu to discuss things. The three brothers have very distinct personalities. Hu Shuo actually has his own opinions, but the boss Hu is too stubborn, and the second brother Hu is obedient. Now that Boss Hu is captured and Hu Shuo is persuaded by us, there is a very good reason for him to persuade Second Hu.”

"Save Boss Hu's life?"

"Yes, this reason couldn't be better, and it can pass the threshold in Hu Shuo's heart." Chi Heng said with a smile, "It was very cold when we attacked Leizhou, and Rong Yue Pojing and I slept outside the camp like this. Shivering from the cold. He always talks about his senior brother, but you don’t often hear him mentioned.”

"Remind him of his mischievous past?"

This kind of old matter is the most interesting to be exposed in front of Rong Yue, Chi Heng said: "We will be able to join him soon, are you willing to follow him or Ma Xingzhi, you choose one of them—— Ma Xingzhi is also a good person, simple and not flashy and does not play tricks on others, but he is good at leading troops, especially in the Western Regions."

After a long silence, Zhuang Qi said, "Am I capable of assisting them now? I would like to stay with you for another half a year."

Chi Heng's heart sank, and he closed his eyes: "That's fine, too!"

On the third day, the second brother Hu finally showed up. The second Hu was much more restrained than the boss Hu, and he was also taciturn. What are the conditions!"

Chi Heng cut to the chase: "Give up Jinzhou, are you willing?"

Hu Laoer's face turned livid: "Don't push yourself too hard, the three of us have been operating in Jinzhou for decades, and it's your turn to show off!"

Chi Heng said leisurely: "Decades? I remember that this place was Hu Leifan's territory two years ago. How could there be extra decades? The mountains and rivers take turns and we each rely on our own abilities. I don't want to ask for prices!"

Hu Laoer gritted his teeth and said: "Don't talk nonsense, I'll just say it straight, don't you want the big brother's territory, just give it to you!"

Really easy.

Chi Heng smiled and shook his head: "Don't dare, this deal is too easy Chi can't believe it!"

"As long as you agree, I will order the withdrawal of the eldest brother's soldiers now, how about it! We brothers don't say anything else, this will definitely not have any tricks!" Hu's second spoke bluntly, and turned to Hu Shuo, "Hu Shuo, you He and... also have some old friends, please say a few words."

Hu Shuo said with difficulty: "Chi Heng, what do you think should be done?"

Seeing the blue sky through the clouds and mists, Chi Heng restrained his joy, and said slowly: "Hu Shuo, when we met in Sizhou, I respected you for your outstanding martial arts and general talent, so I persuaded you to join my Yan Wang army, but it's a pity that you said you want to revitalize Mrs. Hu, neither Zhuang Qi nor I have been able to persuade you. Now that you and I are confronting each other, it will be useless to fight any longer."

"good."

"I have an idea. First, I can fulfill your Hu clan, and second, I can fulfill my long-cherished wish. The Hu clan's soldiers still belong to your Hu clan, but you Hu clan have to raise your troops and surrender to my Qianyuan army, so that I can rest assured, uncle reborn." Next!"

Hu Lao Er didn't seem to believe it was so simple.

Sure enough, Chi Heng said again: "Of course, I am also afraid that Jinzhou will turn back to the Hu family overnight after leaving. Therefore, I have to set conditions. Within two months, Hu Shuo sent troops to leave Jinzhou to attack Jing Lizhou, no matter how much territory you conquer, it’s Hu Shuo’s merit, I dare say, your income in the future will definitely not be less than today’s!"

Hu Laoer said angrily: "Sounding words are useless, if you want to take away all of our Hu clan's troops, just say so."

Chi Heng smiled: "I really don't feel at ease, I can only do this."

Huo Chi took over the conversation: "At least the strength of the Hu clan still belongs to the Hu clan, but the banner has been changed. Moreover, the huge Jingli Prefecture, as the world where the Hu clan gallops, may be worse than Jinzhou!"

Hu Lao Er gritted his teeth: "Don't even think about it!"

When Hu Lao Er and Hu Shuo turned to leave, Chi Heng said a word: "Hu Shuo, Ma Xingzhi asked me to tell you a word. The Qianyuan Army has wiped out most of Murmu's troops. He is an ally, and he will have to return to the east of Jinzhou." Of course, this was for Hu Lao Er.

Zhuang Qi looked at their backs and said, "Second Hu is very tough."

Chi Heng shook his head: "No, it's just a superficial toughness. I believe Hu Shuo can persuade him. If Hu Shuo can't even persuade his second brother, how can he persuade his subordinates in the future?"

"What about Rong Yue?"

"Seize the opportunity to attack when the Hu family can't catch up. Once he relaxes, Hu's second child will definitely reciprocate his expectations. We can't give him such delusional opportunities." Chi Heng pondered for a while, "If Hu Shuo had been in charge of the Hu family earlier , They won’t be in the current situation—have you noticed that Hu Shuo didn’t send troops, so he has a clear judgment on his two elder brothers in his heart.”

Indeed, there is always a heart that cannot be ruthless and needs help from others.

Chi Heng went to see Boss Hu again. After these few days of torture, Boss Hu has softened a bit. He glanced at Chi Heng and said, "If you want to kill, you can cut it casually. I am not afraid of death."

"Your two younger brothers exchange half of Jinzhou, I can't bear it."

Boss Hu spat: "Don't think that we will give up the ancestral property earned by Mrs. Hu!"

What Boss Hu said was right and wrong, Jinzhou was indeed the ancestral property of the Hu family, and even wanted to get involved in Jinglizhou and forge a generational enmity with King Muke of Jinglizhou.It's a pity that the Hu family lacked successors, and the middle way was reduced. It was gradually eroded by people, and even lived in a corner later. It was only a matter of recent years that it was revived again.

"It's not the Hu family, it's Hu Shuo! It's the ancestral property that Hu Shuo fought for. If Hu Shuo hadn't been too accommodating to your elder brother, and if you were willing to let go generously, Jinzhou would have already been in the Hu family's pocket. Think about it for yourself." , if you listen to Hu Shuo's advice, can the Hu family suffer so many defeats? Don't think that Hu Shuo is incompetent, he just cares about your face, otherwise if he raises his arms, do you think the soldiers of the Hu family will not betray you? "

Boss Hu poked his neck and said, "Nonsense!"

"Nonsense, no nonsense, you know in your heart, how much land is left in the Hu family? If I remember correctly, it was almost wiped out by Hu Leifan! How much more land will the Hu family have after Hu Shuo leads the army? You He still insisted on not wanting reinforcements from Ma Xingzhi in Sizhou. As a result, all the land later was earned by borrowing soldiers! Don’t say that the ancestral property is not the ancestral property, without Hu Shuo, your ancestral property would have been defeated! And you, relying on It's the big brother who is holding Hu Shuo in a daze and not letting him move. He owes him a little bit of ruthlessness, or else it's your turn to ruin the Jinzhou he worked so hard to build?"

Chi Heng walked away in a huff.

From the beginning to the end, Chi Heng didn't laugh, because he was in a bad mood, not because of Jinzhou, but because of Cen Pojing's express report, Zheng Yi counterattacked like crazy, he had already lost a city.Although Shi Wei also sent troops to help, the situation is still grim.Chi Heng originally wanted to return to Ningzhou after taking over Jinzhou, so it seemed that he had to readjust his strategy immediately.

Chi Heng once again sent Hu Shuo a letter to persuade him to surrender, and allowed him to meet Hu Shuo once more
