The 229th chapter alienation plan(1/2)

Zhou Ke and Zhou Chang were locked in the military tent for more than an hour. Zhou Ke felt particularly uneasy listening to the sounds of drills outside.

"Ziying Zhuzi still doubts you and me. If we wait until the battle begins, Pei Gong will be dead!" Zhou Ke sat on the ground and sighed.

"Brother, don't worry. With King Changshan in Qin, Ziying will not rashly start a war." Zhou Chang said slowly.

When he is not in a hurry, Zhou Chang will not stutter.

"But Zhang Er is helping Ziying. If he really surrenders to Qin, even if Pei Gong arrives in Qin, he will be isolated and helpless. Maybe Zhang Er's people will help Ziying to be wary of Pei Gong." Zhou Ke said worriedly.

"Based on the nature of King Changshan, he and Ziying are just cooperating. All the knights under him are loyal people. Lord Zhang Ao of Chengdu can learn from his filial piety. There is no need to worry, brother." Zhou Chang said with a smile.

Zhou Ke frowned and said, "Chen Yu can have a falling out with Zhang Er because of the distance between people's hearts. I'm sure Zhang Er is old and just wants to enjoy the blessings in Qin and doesn't want to help Pei Gong win the world."

"Brother is too worried." Zhou Chang closed his eyes to rest and did not answer.

Zhou Ke couldn't hold his breath. He stood up and paced back and forth, sticking his head out from time to time to check the situation outside the camp.

Zhou Ke retracted his head and waved towards Zhou Ke, "Achang, there is no one guarding the camp. Why don't we go out and see how the Qin people train their troops? Maybe we can help Pei Gong in the future!"

"Don't... act rashly." Zhou Chang said urgently, "Li Xin is still in the army, don't be found to be abnormal!"

"Procrastination is not the answer. Only when you see what is happening outside can you come up with countermeasures. Otherwise, if Ziying attacks, you and I will have no choice but to sit back and wait for death."

Zhou Ke was determined to leave. Regardless of Zhou Chang's obstruction, he slowly opened the door curtain and squeezed out.

Zhou Chang was afraid that something might happen to Zhou Ke, so he gritted his teeth and followed closely.

The soldiers on the banks of the Weishui River were still practicing. They held their stomachs and pretended to be so, and slowly walked around to the back of another tent.

"Why is the Qin army always drawing their bows? Could it be that they relied on bows and arrows to attack Chengdu?" Zhou Ke turned sideways to check the enemy's situation.

"More than that, Qin soldiers should be allowed to exercise their arm strength so that they can safely cross the plank road." Zhou Chang explained.

"Ziying has some ideas." Zhou Ke sneered, "However, no matter how the Qin army trains, as long as they dare to mobilize in full force, Xianyang will belong to Pei Gong."

"Sh-!"

Zhou Chang's ears moved slightly and he faintly heard the sound of someone entering the military camp. He reached out and covered Zhou Ke's mouth.

The two quietly put their ears to the military tent, and it seemed like two people were talking.

"Hey, why does the king keep coming to the army to check on you these days? You can't be lazy even if you want. It's so cold that you're going to be exhausted even if you're not freezing to death. I'm pretending to be fainted so I can rest for a while." A Qin soldier complained.

"The land of Bashu has Dujiangyan, which is a fertile land and a land of abundance. If we can capture it, the strength of Great Qin will definitely increase a lot." Another Qin soldier explained.

"The victory is also due to Li Xin, Lu Matong and others." The Qin soldier smiled disdainfully, "How can that kid named Lu be the cavalry commander?"

"Commander Lu is still capable. Even that bully can't compare to his riding skills." Qin Bing said at the side, "But... we really don't need such forceful training."

"Why?"

The military tent suddenly became silent. Zhou Ke and Zhou Chang put their hands together and held them outside their ears, but they could not hear anything.

"Louder! I'm tired from practicing, and I have to work hard to listen to you!"

Qin Bing said angrily, and his voice suddenly became louder, causing Zhou Chang and Zhou Chang to cover their ears.

"I mean, if Lu Pheasant wants to attack Linjiang, the defensive force will inevitably be reduced. Liu Bang has nothing to fear." Another Qin soldier explained.

"Liu Bang has many powerful generals." Qin Bing, who was full of complaints, did not believe it at all.

"It doesn't matter if he leads troops to attack. King Changshan knows him well and he is no match."

"Can Zhang Er really help the king? He and Liu Bang are old friends, and he may have old feelings for Bashu." Qin Bing complained.

"No, Zhang Er is devoted to Qin at the moment. There is something you definitely don't know...Zhang Er asked his men to personally kill Xi Zuo, who was sent by Lu Fei, and Liu Bang's younger brother!"

"Well--"

Zhou Ke screamed in shock, and Zhou Chang quickly covered his mouth with quick eyesight and hands.

"Did you hear anything?" The whistleblower Qin Bing's voice was a little nervous.

"No."

"Perhaps I heard it wrong. You must not tell anyone about this matter. Especially the two people in the big tent. They still want Liu Bang to come to Qin. Haha... The king will not touch him. Zhang Er and the others

No one will let Liu Bang go for the sake of Qin."

"Also, when Changshan destroyed the country, neither Shen Yang nor Liu Bang helped. Liu Bang was still a villain in disguise. Zhang Er will never associate with them..."

Zhou Chang was afraid that he would be discovered after being out for too long, so he took the pale-faced Zhou Ke and quietly ran back to the original tent.

Zhou Ke's legs went weak and he sat huddled on the ground.

"Zhang Er really changed his mind and killed Mr. Liu Jiao!" Zhou Ke scratched his head and said tremblingly, "Let Pei Gong come to Qin, it is a sheep entering the tiger's mouth! We must quickly inform Cao Shen that they have canceled the plan!"

"We can't get out now. That's just...the words of the two Qin soldiers are not trustworthy. What's more, it might...be Ziying's plan!" Zhou Chang said anxiously.

"That's right, that's right..." Zhou Ke nodded repeatedly, "If you have the chance to meet, you should ask Zhang Er personally."

Zhou Yan was just comforting himself, thinking that the matter was true. After all, ordinary people would not be able to make up such a thing. If Ziying deliberately deceived, it would be easily exposed.

Zhou Chang was filled with doubts and couldn't figure out the key.

"Xia Ke Zhao is here to hang someone's head!!"

A loud voice came from outside the tent. Zhou Ke and Zhou Chang looked at each other and, regardless of the danger, gritted their teeth and opened the curtain and came out.

On the bank of the Weishui River, seven or eight Qin soldiers were holding a thick horizontal wooden pole. Under Li Xin's gaze, a hunchbacked old man was tying two heads to one end of the wooden pole.

"That's...Zhao Wu under Zhang Er?!" Zhou Ke said in shock.

Zhou Chang didn't answer, and leaned over dully. He didn't recognize one of the two heads, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Turning around to look at the other head...

With an angry look on his face, his eyes closed tightly, and his expression as usual, he is none other than Liu Jiao, the fourth son of the Liu family!

"ah!!!"

Zhou Chang pushed everyone aside and knelt down, took Liu Jiao's head from Zhao Wu's hands, held it tightly in his arms, and knelt on the ground.

"Mr. Liu... who killed you... Chang will definitely avenge you!"

Zhao Wu frowned and took two steps back.

"Oh, this..." Li Xin was in trouble, "Mr. Zhou Chang didn't rest in the camp, why did he come out?"

"Stop...nonsense!" Zhou Chang held the cold head, raised his head and glared at Li Xin, "Tell me...who did it?!"

"This... Mr. Liu... he committed suicide." Li Xin's eyes darted around, "He... rushed to Qin from Sishui County and learned that Liu Bang was seriously ill and might not die soon. Well... he was so sad and angry.

Come down, draw your sword and kill yourself."

In order to anger the two of them, Li Xin deliberately said something extremely ridiculous.

"Li Xin! Do you think... I'm a fool?!"

"This statement must be absolutely true." Li Xin said with sincerity, "The king thought that he was a loyal and filial person, so he cut off his head specially for the soldiers to pay their respects."

"You...you...!"

Zhou Ke was dressed roughly and rushed to Zhao Wu.

Zhou Ke held Zhao Wu's arm tightly, "I don't believe a word they said. Zhao Wu, tell me, what is going on with all this?!"

Before Zhao Wu was called to the army by Ziying, he had already been told something.

The purpose of the all-out training was to attack the Western Wei Dynasty and restore Changshan. Two rebels who secretly betrayed Liu Bang, followed Lu Fei, and pretended to be loyal have arrived in Qin.

Ziying exposed Zhou Ke and Zhou Chang's "plots" to Zhang Er and his party. Zhang Er was so angry that he almost fainted and begged Ziying to kill the Zhou brothers.

Zhao Wu had long been full of anger, but in Zhou Yan's desperation, his aggressive official aura when he was a soldier in Surabaya was revealed, which made him disgusted as a knight.

"This is a spy sent by Lu Pheasant to King Qin. I killed him myself." Zhao Wu raised his chin and pointed at Lu Sheng's head.

"I didn't ask you this, I was talking about Mr. Liu Jiao...which bastard killed him?" Zhou Ke yelled.

Li Xin on the side moved his face slightly, trying not to laugh out loud.

Zhao Wu pushed Zhou Ke away impatiently, "I'm going to kill you too. It's also the order personally given by King Changshan. Is there any problem?!"

"What? What on earth do you want to do?" Zhou Ke yelled, stepped forward and grabbed Zhao Wu's lapel, but was kicked to the ground by Zhao Wu.

"What King Changshan wants to do has nothing to do with you!" Zhao Wu said coldly, "We are no longer the same people!"

"We are not the same people!" Zhou Ke stood up and wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, "Tell us what other affairs Chang Shan and Qin have."

"Actually, it's nothing." Li Xin interjected, "It's because King Changshan helped the king to recruit talented people from all over the world, and the king allowed King Changshan to go to court for a hearing. Zhao Xiake personally taught King Qin's swordsmanship, and Master Zhang Ao also gave his concubine to the king.

Your Majesty, that’s all.”

"Are you worthy of bringing things to this point... Pei Gong?!" Zhou Chang couldn't think anymore, stood up, stared at Zhao Wu, and cursed.

The angrier Zhou Ke and Zhou Chang were, the more artificial they looked in Zhao Wu's eyes.

"Are you sorry? Hahaha..." Zhao Wu sneered, "It's not your two liars' turn to worry about this!"

fraud?!

The Zhou brothers were angry and their breathing was stagnant.

Did Zhang Erdu help Ziying expose their plot?!
