The following text

On that day, Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, led his Yuanyi cavalry and immediately left the city to pursue the fleeing Queen Mother Zhou and Han Jun Han Ji.

At this time, Queen Mother Zhou had already brought her eldest son Han Ji and second son Han Fei, and under the protection of Hou Hanwu's confidant Han Hou and others, they arrived in Beiyan County in a carriage and passed through Tuyin (yin) County.

Later, arrived in Haiyang.

Haiyang is one of the few ports in Beiyan County. Although South Korea has not stationed naval forces here before, it is not difficult to get a ship to Qi State.

After arriving in Haiyang County, Han Hou did not dare to stay too long. He immediately sent someone to get a larger ship, and soon invited the Queen Mother Zhou, Han Ji, and Han Fei brothers to the ship. In addition,

Also on board the ship were several maids from the palace, chamberlains, and guards under Han Hou.

Haiyang and Qi are only separated by the North Sea, so if you take a boat out of Haiyang, you only need to go straight south to reach the coast of Qi. The journey is not far and you will not lose your way.

When taking a boat out to sea, Han Hou secretly prayed in his heart, praying that he would not run into the Huling navy of Wei on the way to Qi.

In fact, at this time, most of the Huling navy of the Wei State were in the inland river of South Korea, that is, the Haihe River area. However, there is no guarantee whether there will be Huling navy patrolling the sea. After all, as far as Han Hou knew, a month ago, Wei

The Huling navy of the country is still fighting with the remaining navy led by South Korea's Julu Shouyanju in the North Sea.

Perhaps, God really was not on the side of South Korea. By coincidence, the ship on which Queen Mother Zhou was traveling happened to hit the fleet of Wei State's Huling navy within two days after sailing out of Haiyang.

At that time, when he saw a dozen Tiger warships and more than twenty stern ships flying the Wei flag from a distance, Han Hou was almost desperate.

At this time, the Huling Navy also noticed the ship, sent two Tiger warships, and four stern ships surrounded it.

what to do?

Even if he is as steady as Han Hou, he can't help but feel a little confused at this moment.

Although he intended to ask the boatman to rush over by force, the problem was that the other party was a warship of the Wei State. If he failed to break through and was sunk by the Wei army, how should he explain to Hou Hanwu in the future?

"Don't act rashly."

While ordering the guards on the ship to calm down, Han Hou immediately turned around and walked into the cabin, reporting the incident to Queen Mother Zhou: "Empress Dowager, Wei's navy has been spotted ahead."

After hearing Han Hou's report, Mrs. Zhou was inevitably a little panicked and kept saying, "What should we do?"

Seeing this, Han Hou said to the Zhou family: "It is said that the Wei army is strict in running the army and rarely hurts innocent people. Now that things have happened, we can only disguise ourselves as civilians to deceive the Wei army."

Mrs. Zhou nodded repeatedly.

Seeing this, Han Hou immediately returned to the plywood.

At this time, the two Tiger warships and four sterns surrounded the ship and were ordering the guards on the ship to furl the sails.

Looking at the terrifying trebuchets and repeating crossbows on the Wei warships, Han Hou had no choice but to obey the instructions honestly.

Immediately, two Tiger warships sandwiched the ship on the left and right.

"Who are you?"

A general of the Wei army jumped on the ship and asked.

Seeing this, Han Hou pretended to say: "My master is from Beiyan County and is preparing to go to Qi State to visit relatives."

The general looked around the ship and saw that it was an ordinary ship. He disapproved of it and said expressionlessly: "Tell everyone on the ship to gather on the deck."

The situation was stronger than his own, so Han Hou had no choice but to follow the orders and secretly sent someone to invite the Queen Mother Zhou, the new monarch Han Ji and the young master Han Fei.

After a while, everyone on the boat gathered on the deck.

At this time, the general's eyes were looked at Zhou's face wantonly, and he asked: "Is this little woman the master you call me?"

Some Wei soldiers from the side whistled and stared at Zhou and the maids beside her, causing Zhou's face to turn crimson.

"Yes..." Although Han Hou was angry in his heart, he still suppressed it and begged: "Please show me your noble hand, military master."

The general of the Wei army seemed to be staring at the Zhou family and others with some emotion, and he was inevitably a little distraught in his heart. However, due to the strict military discipline of the Wei state, he did not dare to do anything to bully men and women, but after a while

Eye addiction.

At this moment, another Tiger warship came over, and the bow of this Tiger warship was engraved with the word Cheng Gao on the iron plate. Obviously, this was the name of the Huling Navy.

The flagship of Wei general Zhou Kui, Cheng Gao.

"Who are they?"

The idle Wei general Zhou Kui stood on the bow of the ship and asked.

It has to be said that the lives of the Zhou family, Han Hou and others were not good. In the past two days, Wei general Zhou Kui led a fleet to sea. He was originally going to hunt down the remaining navy of Yan Kui. Unfortunately, Yan Kui's whereabouts were uncertain, and Zhou Kui searched for them.

After walking for two days, no trace of Yan Kui was found, so I simply waited in this area to see if Yan Kui dared to attack again.

Unexpectedly, I bumped into the Queen Mother of South Korea and the new monarch Han Ji.

"People from Beiyan County? Go to Qi State to visit relatives?"

Zhou Kui looked at Zhou on the deck up and down, suddenly shook his head and said: "This water area is temporarily blocked, you can go back to where you came from!"

In fact, he did not deliberately embarrass the Zhou family, Han Hou and others. He was just fulfilling his duties and blocking news on the North Sea, trying his best to prevent Qi from knowing the true situation of South Korea. After all, after defeating South Korea

, the Huling Navy’s next attack target is Qi State.

After listening to Zhou Kui's words, Han Hou couldn't help but become anxious and begged: "General, please do me a favor, I am very grateful..."

Zhou Kui frowned when he heard this and said displeasedly: "Don't talk too much! Return to the ship immediately..."

At this moment, several Wei soldiers who were responsible for searching the cabin hurried out of the cabin and handed a package to Zhou Kui: "General, look at this..."

Zhou Kui looked through it and was shocked to see that there was the seal of the Korean monarch inside the package.

At this time, Han Hou also saw the seal in Zhou Kui's hand, and secretly screamed that something was wrong. He wanted to rush in front of Zhou Kui and kidnap the Wei general, but before he could take two steps, he was killed by many Wei people.

The soldier aimed his crossbow.

"Don't move!" the general shouted sternly: "If you dare to take a step forward again, you will be killed for attacking my soldiers of the Wei Dynasty!"

Wei's military discipline stipulates that soldiers are not allowed to kill innocent people indiscriminately, but if someone clearly shows hostility, they can be killed immediately and sentenced not guilty.

Seeing the murderous look on his face, Han Hou's face twitched twice, but he didn't dare to move.

At this time, Zhou Kui looked at the Seal of King Han in his hand, then at Han Hou, and then his eyes fell on the 'mistress' of the ship, Queen Mother Zhou, with a somewhat inexplicable look gradually appearing on his face.

He felt that he had caught a big fish while moored in the sea with nothing to do.

After thinking for a while, he asked Mrs. Zhou: "Little woman, are you really just a civilian woman from Beiyan County?"

Seeing that the identities of his group might have been exposed, Zhou had no choice but to reveal his true identity.

Hearing this, Zhou Kui was overjoyed: He actually caught Han Wangran's wife and children who were about to escape. This was simply a vain effort.

Thinking of this, he immediately signaled the nearby Wei soldiers to put away their weapons, placated the Zhou family in a friendly manner, and finally decided to personally escort the Zhou family and his party back to Jicheng.

During this period, when Zhou Kui learned from Zhou and Han Hou that Jicheng had surrendered to his Wei army, he became increasingly excited.

Half a day later, a group of Zhou Kui's warships landed in the Quanzhou area. Afterwards, Zhou Kui ordered 300 Wei soldiers to escort Zhou and his party to Jicheng.

Unexpectedly, when a group of people passed by Yongnu, they happened to bump into Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, and hundreds of his cavalry.

When the two armies met, Yuanyi Marquis Han Pu and Wei General Zhou Kui were both stunned for a moment, almost causing a misunderstanding.

It’s no wonder, after all, Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, has never met Wei general Zhou Kui, and Zhou Kui didn’t know that Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, had already defected to his Wei state. When he saw a cavalry hurriedly coming under the banner of Yuanyi, he was shocked and immediately

He ordered his Wei soldiers to prepare for the battle.

Fortunately, Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, saw the huge banner with the word Wei in Zhou Kui's army. In order to avoid misunderstanding, he quickly came forward to negotiate in person: "I am Han Pu of Yuanyi. I am here under the secret order of Zhang Qigong, the right captain of Tiance Mansion.

I wonder which army is ahead?"

Tiance Mansion? Zhang Qigong?

Wei general Zhou Kui was greatly surprised when he heard this, so he came forward in person to meet Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi.

Initially, Zhou Kui was a little wary, but after Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, took out Zhang Qigong's right-duty command token of Tiance Mansion from his arms, Zhou Kui gave Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, some reserved trust.

"It turns out to be General Zhou Kui of the Huling Navy."

Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, said hello with a smile.

In fact, he had not heard much about Zhou Kui's reputation, but this did not prevent him from establishing a good relationship with Zhou Kui. After all, Zhou Kui was also the top general in the Wei platoon.

After some pleasantries, Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, said with some surprise: "As far as Han knows, Master Zhao Jiang has ordered your army to immediately replenish food and water and set off for Qi... General Zhou has not yet collected

To the general’s order?”

Of course, Zhou Kui knew the Zhao Jiang mentioned by Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi. This was Zhao Jiang, the king of Yan, the commander of the Eastern Route Army of Wei State’s attack on South Korea. Hearing this, he explained with a smile: “Zhou was chasing Yan Creation in Beihai, but he never thought

He bumped into the Queen Mother and the new king of South Korea. No, they were about to send them to Jicheng..."

"really?!"

When he heard that the Empress Dowager Zhou and others, whom he had been chasing unsuccessfully, were actually in the ranks of Wei general Zhou Kui, Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, was immediately overjoyed. He invited Zhou Kui to a distance and lowered his voice and said: "Zhou Kui."

General, can you hand over the Zhou family, Han Ji, and Han Fei brothers to Han?... And treat it as if this never happened."

"..."

Zhou Kui glanced at Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, with a strange expression.

At first he thought that Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, wanted to take credit, but after thinking about it carefully, Zhou Kui didn't think that Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, would be stupid enough to do such a thing. When he heard Han Pu's words, he just pretended that it had never happened.

However, a strange thought arose in Zhou Kui's mind: Isn't this Han Pu trying to kill the monarch?

In order to confirm his suspicion, Zhou Kui asked: "Is this... what Captain Zhang means?"

Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi, nodded and lowered his voice and said: "Zhang Duwei ordered me to chase Zhou, Han Ji, and Han Fei brothers... to eradicate the roots!" As he said that, he imitated Zhang Qigong and made a slashing motion with his sword.

"..."
