At this moment, Yu Heng suddenly realized that Mi Ya was actually a beauty. Her long black hair and the gorgeous clothes she wore accentuated her beautiful curves, giving off a sense of beauty that was full of imagination.
If she hadn't opened her heart today, his impression of her would still be stuck at the Battle of Jingshui.
While the King of Wu insisted on attacking the Chu Country for revenge, he also sent people to contact the various vassals in the north and asked them to send troops to help and tame the unreasonable Chu Country together.
This was a good idea, and Yuheng agreed with it. Just like the modern United States fighting against Iraq or Libya, they would also pull in Yi Da's underlings to share the risks and costs.
The Wu army would definitely attack Jingmen Pass first when they marched into Chu. This pass was the eastern gate of Chu. It was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if they could take it down, it would be a tragic victory that would kill 1,000 enemies and suffer 800 losses.
When he was discussing countermeasures with Wu Zixu, he learned that the general guarding Jingmen Pass was Xiang Rong. He was very resourceful, loyal, and difficult to deal with.
This kid's surname is Xiang. Could he be from the same family as Xiang Yu? It seemed that this Xiang fellow had a long history in the Chu Country. There had been such a high official since the Spring and Autumn Period.
"Brother Yu, what are you thinking about? Now, we must take down this Jingmen, but it's very difficult to do so. The problem is in front of us. Is there any good way?”Wu Zixu looked at the map and pondered. Seeing that Yu Heng was in a daze, he thought that the other party had found a door, so he asked.
"Big Brother Wu, have you thought about it? Although our Wu Army is stronger than the opponent, if we attack forcefully, the losses will naturally not be small. The opponent will use the geographical advantage to offset our advantage. Taking a step back, even if we take down Jingmen Pass, we still have to continue advancing. Therefore, we can't lose our troops here. Although the various vassal kingdoms have come to help, they are also here to watch. Even if the Wu army is slightly powerless, they will switch sides at any time.”Yu Heng thought about the overall situation and did not just stop at the front.
"Brother Yu, you are absolutely right. This old man is really old, so I didn't think too far ahead. I was only thinking about how to take down Jingmen Pass and report to the king.”Wu Zixu secretly admired this young and promising colleague in front of him. Working with him was really an eye-opener.
"Brother Wu, you flatter me, but I have a bold idea now. After thinking about it again and again, I can only do this. I want to personally enter the pass to meet this Xiang Rong.”
"How could that be? You entered alone? Not only will I not agree, but the king will also not allow you to go. How can a general take such a big risk?”Wu Zixu shook his head after hearing this, wondering if Yuheng was crazy.
"Hehe, it's okay. Besides, I'm not going alone. She was familiar with the Chu Country and should be able to rest assured in terms of safety.”Yu Heng did not mind. True great men were all bold and resourceful, blessed with good fortune. Hehe, he was definitely the same.
"That won't do. If you insist on doing this, I can only report to the king and ask him to stop you from taking the risk.”Wu Zixu mentioned the King of Wu. This was a more practical move. The Wu Kingdom needed him more than ever. The two beautiful battles earlier had established his prestige in the Wu army. Many soldiers even privately said that following General Yu to fight was equivalent to insurance for their lives.
"Big Brother Woo, your actions are very disadvantageous to Great Wu. I was hoping that you would cooperate with me in putting on an act. Only then could they take down the crucial Jingmen Pass.”Yu Heng persuaded patiently, knowing in his heart that there was no other way but to take a gamble.
"If I'm sending you into a pit of fire, I can't act in this act, and I don't want to know.”
Yu Heng knew that Wu Zixu had good intentions. This was the best time to show their brotherly love, but now was not the time to discuss this.
"Lord Wu, my master is right. If we want to take down Jingmen Pass, this is the best way. I will protect my master's safety.”Mi Ya noticed her master's hint and said to Wu Zixu.
Actually, personally going to persuade Xiang Rong was also the result of their discussion. From a psychological point of view, Mi Ya was against it at first because she was more concerned about Yuheng's safety than anyone else. However, she was eventually convinced by Yuheng to face it together.
"Mi Ya, are you sure you can guarantee Lord Yu's safety?”
Mi Ya nodded solemnly and looked affectionately at Yu Heng, who was sitting beside her. This man was too charming. Every move he made was attractive to her. Mi Ya seemed to have been poisoned by lovesickness.
Wu Zixu was also helpless. He knew that Yu Heng had made up his mind and could only compromise. He asked,"Lord Yu, how can I cooperate with you? I won't do anything immoral."
"Haha, Brother Wu is being too serious. I just want Brother Wu to help me keep my whereabouts a secret, deal with the king, and handle military affairs during my absence. Is that okay?”
"Hide from the king? If he summons you, how can you not go?”Wu Zixu thought about it and still didn't have confidence in his heart. Because Wu Wang summoned Yu Heng with these sounds of nature, this made him even more difficult to deal with.
"Don't worry, I've already thought about it. I'll ask the king to allow me to go out and survey the terrain.”Yu Heng could finally relax. At least he could rest assured that Wu Zixu was in the army and could safely wait for his return.
In the middle of the night, in order to hide from the public, Yu Heng and Mi Ya set off for Jingmen Pass ahead of the army.
Three days later, he rented a merchant ship at the Jingshui River and went down the river. In a day, he arrived at the Jingmen Pass directly. Because he had received news that the Wu Kingdom's army would arrive soon, the inspection at the pass was even stricter. Especially for foreigners, they were searched directly. Once they found anything unusual, they were immediately detained.
Xiang Rong's measures had indeed prevented many risks. Yu Heng had a premonition that this person would be a big test in his life.
With Mi Ya's help, Yu Heng only managed to enter the pass by pretending to be mute. The streets inside were clean and orderly. There were no signs of panic and escape, which indirectly reflected that the residents still trusted Xiang Rong.
"Mi Ya, let's find a place to settle down first and then find an opportunity to meet Xiang Rong privately.”Yu Heng said in a low voice.
"Alright, I'll make the arrangements. I have an old friend in Jingmen Pass who works under Xiang Rong. He should be able to help.”Mi Ya was confident.
The two of them found a remote and inconspicuous inn to stay in. Then, Mi Ya went to arrange the meeting.
F * ck, if he hadn't come early, he really wouldn't have known that this Jingmen Pass was so solid. It seemed that his train of thought was right, so Yu Heng was even more determined in his psychological attack strategy.
Mi Ya's figure gradually faded into the corner of the street, and her eyes blurred. Was it worth it for her to do this?
