After listening to Tian Sheng's analysis, Xuanwu Hou felt that this was the case again, so he said: "It seems that I have to go, otherwise I will be stingy and afraid." ”

Unexpectedly, Tian Sheng hurriedly shook his head: "Dad doesn't have to go, I'll meet Ji Qiao." ”

Xuanwu Hou nodded and agreed: "Okay, maybe you young people can talk about it." ”

......

Tian Sheng was very straightforward, and took more than a dozen people out of the city.

When Ji Qiao saw his personable appearance, admiration arose! I feel that Tian Yi and him are not the same, these brothers are too far apart! So he said politely: "I have heard the name of Tian Sheng Gongzi for a long time, and I am really fortunate to see him today!" ”

Tian Sheng laughed: "Qiao Gongzi is really as rumored, he didn't say anything truthful!" I led my troops to attack Linzi City half a month ago, and the name of the thief was known, how did it become a long-term news? ”

Ji Qiao also laughed: "Tian Sheng Gongzi doesn't know, this day is not like every three autumns, and the half moon is dozens of autumns, how can it not be heard for a long time!" ”

Tian Sheng couldn't stop laughing after hearing this: "Qiao Gongzi can speak well, I admire it!" May I ask Gongzi Qiao who came this time, but persuaded my father and son to surrender? ”

Ji Qiao didn't expect the other party to be so direct, so he had to nod and admit: "That's true!" The king promised: If you lead your troops to surrender, you will not be blamed for the past, but only the title will be reduced, but you will be protected. I also hope that Tian Sheng Gongzi will consider the lives of the soldiers of Qi and the interests of the people, so as not to cause misery! ”

Tian Sheng replied indifferently: "If you don't come to attack the city, there will be no sacrifice, let alone the destruction of lives." ”

Ji Qiao Zhengse said: "The unification of the Qi country is a must!" If you follow you, the other princes will follow suit, and the Qi country will not be in chaos! ”

Tian Sheng nodded, thinking that this was the truth, but sighed: "The matter has come to this, there is no turning back!" ”

Ji Qiao hurriedly persuaded: "It's too late to turn back now, if you really start a war, it's too late!" And this is a great sin to exterminate the Nine Clans! ”

Tian Sheng laughed again: "Listening to Gongzi Qiao, we are bound to lose!" And you are here to save our father and son. ”

Ji Qiao replied truthfully: "I don't dare to say anything about rescue, but it's not bragging, if we attack the city, it won't be difficult to break the city!" It's just that I don't want the Qi country to kill each other internally, and the blood of the soldiers will flow like a river, so the Qi country will be in a slump and let other countries see the jokes. ”

Tian Sheng was a little disdainful: "I believe in Qiao Gongzi's ability, but it's useless for me to believe alone, I can't rely on these few words to go back and persuade my father and them, and then directly lead the troops out of the city to surrender." ”

Ji Qiao also found that it was useless to just talk about it, but he didn't want to give up, so he had a patient exchange with Tian Sheng.

The result of the final exchange: it is still necessary to fight!

Ji Qiao agreed with Tian Sheng to lead troops to attack the city in a month.

......

After Ji Qiao returned to Linzi, he immediately reported the content of the meeting to King Qi.

King Qi shook his head helplessly: "Gongzi Qiao has tried his best, and Lone also knows that this battle is inevitable!" ”

Ji Qiao hurriedly gave a salute: "Thank you for your understanding!" ”

King Qi suddenly preached solemnly: "Young Master Qiao, you are fully responsible for this battle, and you must make all preparations!" What needs are directly to the orphan. ”

Ji Qiao hurriedly said: "Don't worry! I try to keep the damage to a minimum. ”

King Qi asked again: "How many soldiers and horses does Gongzi Qiao need?" ”

Ji Qiao thought about it carefully and replied: "Your Majesty, there are not many soldiers and horses in the Qi country, and now there are only 300,000, and you still have to garrison the border to prevent other countries from attacking, just give me 100,000!" ”

King Qi was very worried: "The Marquis of Xuanwu has 110,000 people, and he is defending the city, how can you break it with 100,000 people?" ”

Ji Qiao said very confidently: "The key to attacking the city is to break the city, if the city is broken, it will become an attack." Although the Xuanwu Marquis had 110,000 people, he occupied nine cities, each city was divided into thousands of troops to garrison, and the main city of Jimo only left more than 70,000 troops, which was enough for 100,000 people! ”

King Qi was overjoyed when he heard this: "When Gongzi Qiao said so, Lone is relieved!" You let go of this battle, you don't need to ask for instructions on everything, you only need the result. ”

Ji Qiao immediately said: "Okay! Surely the king will be given a satisfactory result. ”

But then he said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, when I was in Luoyi, in order to let King Zhou help, I made a proposal and promised to give him 10,000 taels of gold, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”

King Qi laughed heartily: "Even if Gongzi Qiao agrees, it can be regarded as a lonely promise!" This 10,000 taels of gold saved the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, it's worth it! Lone immediately sent someone to send it. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

......

After Ji Qiao returned home, Lin Shi hurriedly pulled him to ask about the situation.

When he learned that the war would start in a month, he was a little impatient: "It's too long, and I have to wait for this long." ”

Ji Qiao didn't pay attention to her, but said to everyone: "The 100,000 army allocated by King Qi, Lin Qinggongzi will take over tomorrow, and I am responsible for organizing people to build siege weapons during this time." ”

Lin Qing was still a little worried: "Young Master Qiao, can 100,000 people really defeat Xuanwu Hou?" ”

Dongfang Jiao immediately said: "If you don't have confidence, let your mother command the troops." ”

Of course, Lin Qing disagreed: "Whoever has no confidence, I'll just ask." ”

Ji Qiao smiled: "Don't worry, there is an opportunity to lead the troops." ”

Lin Shi asked curiously: "Why wait for a month, it's November, and it's almost the New Year." ”

Ji Qiao smiled proudly: "It's just a good New Year." ”

Lin Shi was very unconvinced: "It's too easy to say, siege battles are not something that can be fought casually!" ”

Lin Yan also didn't believe it, and reminded: "Young Master Qiao, siege warfare is not easy to fight!" Don't underestimate your opponent too much, and ruin your reputation at that time. ”

Ji Qiao said with a smile: "Don't worry, Master Hou, I have a sense of proportion in this matter, not to mention that there are winners and losers in the war, and it doesn't hurt to lose once, there is no reputation ruined." ”

Lin Yan hurriedly shook his head: "Qiao Gongzi can't lose, you have now become the idol of the Qi people, and losing will disappoint everyone." ”

Ji Qiao continued to laugh and said, "Then I won't lose!" ”

......

In the evening, Ji Ling came to Ji Qiao's room and said, "After defeating the Xuanwu Hou, you will directly ask the King of Qi for someone to rescue my mother." ”

Ji Qiao looked at her: "Okay, I must rescue your mother, but I can't be in a hurry, I must think of a perfect plan for this matter, and it will be done naturally, and it must not be doubted." ”

Ji Ling said, "I have a plan. ”

Ji Qiao thought to herself: This kid has a lot of ideas, maybe he really has a good plan. He said, "Let's hear it." ”

Ji Ling immediately said: "Haven't you always pretended to like my mother, after defeating the Marquis of Xuanwu this time, you really did a fake show, and immediately proposed to the King of Qi to marry my mother, and he will definitely agree." ”

Ji Qiao was taken aback! What's going on in this kid's head? Hurriedly shook his head: "This plan doesn't work, Lin Shi and the princess both want to marry me, and their parents have agreed, but I haven't agreed, if you suddenly take the initiative to marry your mother, others will be suspicious!" ”

Ji Ling immediately asked, "What do you mean?" Look down on my mother? My mother is just a little darker, and now she looks so good! He is only thirty years old, several years younger than Bichun. ”
