Chapter Seventy-Eight: Defeat on All Fronts
King Qi was shocked when he heard this! How did it come so quickly?
So he hurriedly urged Sun Qian and quickly led the army to the front line to support.
At this time, another scout came to report: "Your Majesty, the Yan army suddenly counterattacked, and the offensive was fierce!" Our army has been defeated and retreated, with more than 20,000 casualties, and retreated more than 100 miles. ”
After King Qi was shocked just now, he was not shocked now, but just sighed: "It seems that the four kingdoms have already negotiated the date, and at the same time, they are in trouble!" ”
After speaking, he immediately led the ministers to the court to discuss matters.
......
In the court, the ministers discussed a lot, but none of them came up with constructive suggestions.
King Qi was a little angry: "Among you, why can't you find a person who is lonely and worried?" ”
None of the ministers spoke.
King Qi swept over one by one with his gaze.
The ministers pretended not to see it.
King Qi simply named him: "Gongzi Tian Wu will talk about it first, how to resist the enemy?" ”
Tian Wu replied lightly: "Brother Wang, on the battlefield of the Northern Front, our army was only a small defeat, and it also occupied many cities in Yan State, so there is no need to worry; On the battlefield of the Western Front, it was only succeeded by the sneak attack of the Sanjin, and when Sun Qian's army arrived, it would be able to stabilize the position, so there was no need to worry. ”
King Qi actually looked down on him a little: "It's so easy to say! But it's normal that you're still young and don't know about war. ”
Then he looked at Tian Ren again: "Xuanwu Hou will talk about it." ”
Tian Ren immediately replied: "Your Majesty, the ministers are helpless. However, this matter can be asked An Banghou, at the beginning, he was the only one who tried his best to advise the king to attack the Yan Kingdom, and he could predict in advance that the Three Jin Dynasty would attack from the west, and there was a fixed countermeasure. ”
King Qi sighed: "An Banghou is now recuperating from his injuries, how can he come?" ”
A minister replied: "Anbang Hou must have been afraid of defeat, so he did not dare to command the army, and deliberately deceived himself. ”
Of course, King Qi didn't believe it: "How can you talk like this? Gu has sent the imperial doctor over, and it is confirmed that the leg meridians are injured and cannot move. ”
The man added: "The injury is a real injury, but the collision must have been done on purpose." ”
A minister chimed in: "Yes, very likely! Anbang Houfu is good at calculation and very cunning! ”
When he said this, many ministers immediately believed it! In the past six months or so, what Anbang Houfu has done is indeed impressive!
Tian Wu argued for An Banghou at this time: "You can't say that, when An Banghou first admonished Yan to attack Yan Guo, he had already proposed to pay attention to the Three Jins. What's more, he has never led troops to fight, and he is not a military general, even if he is unwilling to take command of the battle, it is human nature. ”
King Qi immediately nodded in agreement: "That's true!" It's no wonder that An Banghou is waiting for this. ”
So, they continued to deliberate, but to no avail.
King Qi had to preach: "This matter will be discussed tomorrow, and the ministers will go back and think about it." ”
.....
In the evening, Ampang Houfu.
Ji Qiao also received the battle reports on the battlefields on the western and northern fronts at this time, and also learned that what the court discussed today was just that the princess specially sent someone to inform him.
Lin Shi is a little radical now: "Ji Qiao, will you fight or not?" Or we'll take command for my father. ”
Lin Shi is talking to Ji Qiao now, and when she calls "father and mother", she doesn't bother to add the word "me"!
Ji Ling couldn't stand it very much: "Your cheeks are much thicker than Ji Qiao!" ”
Dongfang Jiao sees it in her eyes and is happy in her heart, this girl has grown and speaks at a much higher level!
But he still scolded: "You think this is a fight, and you don't know how you will die then." ”
How do you know that Lin Qing is also a little impulsive: "Mother, in fact, I also want to take command for my father, maybe I can win?" ”
Dongfang Jiao immediately asked: "You don't believe Qiao Gongzi!" He said that if he wants to lose this battle, he will not be able to win! Do you think Xuanwu is a vegetarian, he is a veteran of the battlefield, if there is a advantage, how can he let it be given to us! ”
After Lin Qing and Lin Shi heard this, they both nodded in agreement.
Unexpectedly, Dongfang Jiao suddenly smiled again: "Young Master Qiao, you will lead the troops to fight in the future, you must not take these two people there, they are impulsive and unreliable." Just take me there, I'm so much better than them! And you can quickly understand your intentions. ”
Lin Qing and Lin Shi were a little flattered! Is this a mother-in-law? How do you feel unfamiliar!
Ji Qiao replied very seriously: "Okay, then I will let Mrs. be a heroine!" Become a heroine! And loved and admired by the world! ”
Lin Shi was a little anxious: "Didn't you already say that Joe Jockey was left to me." ”
Lin Qing immediately stopped: "This is what I have trained so hard for, how can I give it to you!" ”
Lin Shi said: "Hard work, everything is done by Ji Qiao, you can teach them some martial arts." I will do this too, but this dead Ji Qiao disagreed, saying that I was a beautiful woman to train soldiers, and those men couldn't calm down at all. ”
Ji Ling very much agrees with this statement: "Yes, after these men see beautiful women, they are soft, and they have the same virtue as Ji Qiao, and they have the heart to practice." ”
Lin Shi immediately smiled and said: "I said the same thing, but Ji Qiao didn't think so, and said shamelessly: When I meet a beautiful woman, I am more energetic!" More flexible response! ”
"Whew!" Ji Ling was very contemptuous, but he felt that this was really the case, after this dead Ji Qiao saw the beauty, his mental state was different!
......
The next day, the palace of the king of Qi, the court.
The kings and ministers continued to discuss the war, but only on trivial issues.
So there is still no result.
On the third day, the palace of the king of Qi, on the court.
The monarch was still discussing the war.
However, the scouts on the northern front reported: "Your Majesty, the Yan army is attacking fiercely, and our army has suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and has retreated nearly 100 miles, and has withdrawn from the Qiyan border." Now the army is stationed in Pingshu City, and General Ziqi has ordered to defend the country. ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this! This Yan army's counterattack is too fierce!
At the same time, the scouts on the Western Front also reported: "Wang, Sun Qian's army has arrived in Gaotang and fought against the Sanjin coalition army." General Sun had ordered all officers and men to hold on and not to fight. ”
King Qi nodded and said, "Yes, you must hold it!" ”
......
Three days later, the palace of the king of Qi, the court.
The scout on the northern front came to report again: "Your Majesty, the army of Ziqi cannot resist the offensive of the Yan army, and has retreated more than 100 miles, with more than 15,000 casualties. ”
The scouts on the western front also came to report: "Your Majesty, the Three Jin Coalition Army is like a broken bamboo, and Sun Qian's army is powerless to resist at all, and has retreated more than 100 miles, with more than 15,000 casualties. ”
At this moment, King Qi was completely panicked! If this trend continues, it won't be long before the armies of the four countries will attack the capital Linzi.
The ministers were also very panicked! So they all began to denounce Lin Yan, saying that he was so happy with his achievements, and his evil words brought disaster to the country, and he must be severely punished.
Xuanwu Hou did not join the ranks of condemning Lin Yan at this time, because he knew very well in his heart that although all the courtiers did not dare to accuse the king now, they would never let Lin Yan go. So there is no need to go out by himself at all, Lin Yan is already hard to blame.
King Qi was a little difficult to ride a tiger, knowing that the ministers did not dare to hold themselves accountable for their mistakes, so he pointed the finger at Lin Yan.
I couldn't help but be a little shaken in my heart, should I let Lin Yan be a substitute for the dead ghost?
