When Li Ran finished speaking, the Chu camp suddenly fell silent.
What surprised Li Ran was that, facing his naked humiliation, Wang Ziwei not only did not get angry, but instead seemed very calm, and even seemed to be seriously thinking about what Li Ran said.
This gave Li Ran a very bad feeling.
as expected.
After a moment, the prince suddenly sneered,
His eyes glanced back and forth at Li Ran for a while. And he just said calmly:
"Haha, you really have a sharp tongue. Are you trying to persuade me to let Uncle Sunbao go?"
"Exactly."
"There has always been a grudge between the State of Lu and the State of Ju, so it is not surprising that they would attack each other. If Ling Yin captures Dr. Shusun back to the State of Chu at this time, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."
Li Ran was now unable to argue, so he could only reluctantly answer.
Unexpectedly, Wang Ziwei only waved his hand.
He signaled to Li Ran that there was no need to continue talking. Uncharacteristically,
He stared at Li Ran with unconcerned eyes.
"Now our country, Chu, is the leader of the world.
This matter between the Lu and Ju States should naturally be investigated by our Chu State before we make a final conclusion. Now, it is not your turn, a Zheng man, to make irresponsible remarks here."
"Li Ran, Li Ran, I do value your talents, but you must not push yourself too far!"
The prince looked at Li Ran with waning interest, with a hint of enlightened arrogance in his eyebrows and eyes, as if he had the attitude of a superior, which he displayed vividly.
The capture of Shusun Bao was the first major event accomplished by Prince Wei in exercising his authority as leader of the alliance.
If you just let it go, doesn't that mean you're slapping yourself in the face?
Especially when compared with the performance of the Marquis of Jin in the previous meeting at Pingqiu, this would be too embarrassing!
Therefore, when he faced Li Ran's remonstrance again, his current reaction was completely different from his "I'm happy to hear it" attitude before the alliance meeting.
In order to become the leader of the world, he can listen to some advice from Li Ran.
But after becoming the leader of the alliance, any issue related to the face of his alliance leader,
Absolutely no discussion!
Faced with such a tough attitude from Wang Ziwei,
Li Ran was completely out of ideas for a moment.
Since it's too soft, we can only...
Li Ran sadly withdrew from the Chu camp, and with Sun Wu's entourage, first returned to Zheng's garrison.
Along the way, Sun Wu saw that Li Ran was always worried, so he asked:
"Sir, are you thinking about how to rescue Dr. Shusun?"
Li Ran turned his eyes, looked around for a week, then nodded and replied:
"Well, Dr. Shusun must not be taken back to Chu State by them!"
"Chang Qing, do you have any ideas?"
When Sun Wu heard the sound, he immediately got closer to him and whispered:
"Wu thought, if we really want to rescue Dr. Shusun, we might as well... attack the Chu camp at night and force the prince to surround and release the people! Or on their way back to the Chu Kingdom... directly kidnap Dr. Shusun!"
"The Chu State came to Guodi this time. After all, it only brought a mere two thousand soldiers. We now have hundreds of elite men. If we are surprised, it is more than enough to kidnap one person!"
The numerical disadvantage can be made up for by surprise, which is one of Sun Wu's greatest tricks in future military use.
Li Ran heard the sound and nodded slightly.
"only,
This plan is a bit crude..."
"so,
Chang Qing, you can lead two hundred elite soldiers tonight, all dressed in black night clothes and with their heads wrapped in cloth, rush into the Chu camp and set fire to it, pretending to attack the prince and surround the camp. You only need to draw out most of the Chu people to chase, and then you can retreat immediately."
"Remember, you must escape intact, and don't let the Chu people get any leverage!"
After all, Li Ran is now a traveler of Zheng. Once the prince finds out that this matter was done by Zheng, the consequences will be disastrous.
On the other hand, nothing must happen to Sun Wu, otherwise how could Li Ran shoulder this historical responsibility?
"Could it be...could it be that Sir is planning to rob the prisoner himself?"
Sun Wu reacted very quickly and immediately thought of Li Ran's overall plan.
The so-called attack from the east and attack from the west means that Sun Wu first pretended to attack the camp where the prince was besieging, and then Li Ran took the opportunity to attack the place where his uncle Sun Bao was imprisoned, making it difficult for the prince to look at each other.
"No need to worry, Mr. Chang. As long as you can control him well, then my brother can rest easy!"
"On the contrary, you, although Wang Ziwei is not good at using soldiers, the ancestors of Wu Ju around him have always been in the army and are experts in using soldiers."
"Don't underestimate these thousands of guards of the Chu Kingdom. Since these people can accompany the Chu Kingdom Ling Yin deep into the hinterland of the Central Plains, if there is no complete protection, Wang Ziwei will definitely not be so safe."
Therefore, in the face of such a powerful enemy, you have to be foolproof and not reveal any flaws. You can imagine how difficult it is.
Immediately, the two of them climbed onto an earth platform and surveyed the terrain of Chu Camp.
Chu Camp is located to the south of Huimeng Terrace, surrounded by mountains, and its exit is facing Huimeng Terrace. Li Ran went in and out of Chu Camp twice, and he already had an understanding of the internal garrison situation.
According to his guess, Shu Sunbao was most likely imprisoned next to the Wang Ziwei camp.
"If the enemy attacks from the entrance of the camp, the prince will definitely go to the east side. At that time, I will lead the troops to attack from the west, cut off the Chu camp soldiers' support to the main gate of the camp, and wait for an opportunity to rescue Dr. Shusun."
"The resistance you encounter at the main gate will not be small, so once you succeed, you must evacuate in time! I will go to Zhao Wu to discuss it now, and I also ask the Jin State to help secretly."
The east side of the Chu camp is the official road back to Chu State. If Wang Ziwei wants to break out of the encirclement, he must choose the east side.
But if the prince cannot retreat and chooses to fight Sun Wu, then these people under Sun Wu are obviously no match for the elites of Chu State, so Jin State's support is also very important.
How could Sun Wu not know what Li Ran meant? So he immediately nodded in agreement.
Li Ran came to Jin camp again. When Zhao Wu learned of Li Ran's intention, he was obviously stunned for a moment.
"Are you really going to do this?!"
"What does the Chinese military think is wrong with this move?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Ran did not answer "yes" or "no", but chose to ask a rhetorical question.
I saw Zhao Wu turning his back. After thinking carefully, he shook his head very calmly and replied:
"It's... not inappropriate."
"It's just that this move is a bit too radical. If it were me, I probably wouldn't dare to do it."
After the words fell, Zhao Wu's eyes showed a trace of expectation.
"The Kingdom of Chu is booming, and now it is the leader of the alliance. The ministers of all countries here are afraid of causing trouble, so they are afraid to avoid it. But you are willing to put yourself in danger? This courage really makes me ashamed...
"
Among the younger generation, Zhao Wu has never seen anyone who can compare with Li Ran. Even among the older generation, there are only a handful of people who can compare with Li Ran.
What Zhao Wu praised was Li Ran's courage, courage, resourcefulness and determination.
It's a pity that such a good seedling could not be used by the Jin Kingdom.
"The Chinese army is full of praise."
"Doctor Shusun had the kindness to know and meet him, but now he sees him in danger, how can he sit back and ignore it?"
"This time I only request that the Chinese army can send people to cover it so that the troops can escape smoothly."
Sun Wu led his army to pretend to attack the main gate, and after setting fire to it, they were bound to be heavily pursued by the Chu people. It was obviously difficult for Li Ran's troops to support it.
If the Jin State can help, for any reason, it may be able to help Li Ran relieve a lot of pressure.
As long as the Jin State can intervene in this matter secretly, when the Chu people find out, they will not dare to confront the Jin State under the eyes of the Jin State.
"good!"
"Haha, you are such a good person, Li Ziming! But you have planned everything for our country, Jin?"
When Li Ran made the matter clear, even Zhao Wu couldn't help but give Li Ran a thumbs up.
However, what Li Ran said was actually at a tactical level. He seemed to have completely acquiesced that Jin would definitely help.
However, in fact, Jin had to help with this task. Although Li Ran didn't say it, Zhao Wu knew it.
What is the reason? In fact, it is also a very simple reason: Your Chu State actually dares to take people from our Jin State, and the person you take is our surname Ji! Has your Chu State ever taken our Jin State seriously?
And the Jin State is not very willing to openly help the Lu State. Firstly, after all, it is the leader of the alliance who gave up his position. Secondly, the Jin State also did the same thing at the Pingqiu meeting that year.
Therefore, they were originally in a dilemma. But now, Li Ran of Zheng State can actually take the initiative. This is definitely the best thing for Jin State.
It was obvious that Li Ran had clearly calculated all these relationships from the beginning. Otherwise, how could he dare to come to the Jin camp to ask for help?
And the reason why he didn't tell the truth was that it was totally unnecessary. Secondly, it also left enough dignity for the Jin State.
That's why Zhao Wu said, "Make a clear plan for the Jin Kingdom."
Moreover, this plan was just a piece of cake for the Jin State. After all, Li Ran had already taken care of this most thrilling job, and the Jin State only assisted him from the side, supporting him and building up his momentum.
What's wrong with this?
"Then thank you so much, Lord Zhongjun. Your kindness and kindness will certainly be unforgettable!"
