Chapter 26: This is a mistake
"Has it already arrived? All of you will go with Ben to greet you. ”
Hearing the news, Dongfang Lin slowly got up and said in a deep voice.
Outside Anling City, Ji Ming looked thoughtfully at this heavily guarded city.
"It seems that the Qi army has not officially attacked Anling yet, but I'm afraid it won't take long." Ji Ming said in a flat tone, as if he didn't take Qi Jun in his eyes at all.
Jia Xu rode his horse beside Ji Ming, and he responded: "The Qi army was blocked by Juyang, and now it is set to recuperate. As His Highness said, they will definitely focus their attention on Anling next. ”
"But in my opinion, the Qi army may not attack Anling, and they are more likely to surround and not advance. The so-called battle must attack the heart, once there is a difference in the city, it is a great opportunity for the Qi army. Jia Xu said suddenly.
Anyway, they were all waiting outside the city, Ji Ming lowered his head slightly, and after thinking about it, he said: "What Wen He said is very true, and it is still inappropriate for Gu Fang to think about it, this is the territory of Qi after all, and it is difficult for us to show it."
If it comes to military force, Jia Xu will naturally not be strong, but when it comes to strategy, he still has some confidence. I saw him say loudly: "Now I don't know the movement of the Qi army, and there is no way to deal with it."
"But there must be flaws in all schemes, as long as there is enough information, Xu can find a counterattack for His Highness." Speaking of this, Jia Xu just whispered to Ji Ming, not being noticed by others.
Ji Ming believed that Jia Xu was not deceiving himself, so he said with a smile: "Wenhe doesn't need to worry, if you want to end the war, it is not a matter of ten days, there will definitely be an opportunity for you to make suggestions."
In front of Ji Ming, Jia Xu is unreservedly loyal. The reason why he is so positive is not to show himself, but to fight for Ji Ming's interests as much as possible.
With Ji Ming's current status, even if he returns to Xianyang, he is just an idle prince. Maybe they will fall victim to the struggle for power and profit, and eventually disappear from everyone.
And this battle of Qin Qi is an excellent opportunity, as long as Ji Ming performs well and has enough merit, his situation will be completely different.
At this moment, the gate of Anling City slowly opened.
When Ji Ming's eyes were raised, he saw Dongfang Lin, who was the leader, and he didn't expect that he would come out to greet him in person, which was a little surprising.
But Ji Ming adapted to his identity quickly, so he rode his horse forward, and said loudly: "General Dongfang, in the blink of an eye, it is a time, and the changes are not small."
Dongfang Lin was able to sit in the eastern realm, how easy is it, and said with a smile: "What Your Highness said is very true, because the last general never thought that he would meet His Highness again in such a situation."
The two exchanged simple pleasantries, and their words were flat and did not smell of gunpowder. Dongfang Lin bowed his hand slightly to Ji Ming and said, "Since His Royal Highness has arrived at Anling, it is better to enter the city and negotiate."
Ji Ming was not ambiguous, nodded and responded: "Since General Dongfang has spoken, then I will enter the city first." Lone also wants to know what the situation is like now, and I hope it is not too bad. ”
In these words, Ji Ming had already revealed that he did not want to deal with Dongfang Linjin. After all, when Great Qin was in danger, they should cooperate sincerely, instead of calculating with each other.
If it was the original Ji Ming, even if he really fled to Anling, Dongfang Lin would never look down on him. Now that the war situation is urgent, where can I take care of a down-and-out prince.
But now it's different, from Xu Jie's report, Dongfang Lin already knows that Ji Ming has two generals in his hands. If the war starts, it may be able to do wonders and change the overall situation.
Coupled with Fang Cai's contact, Dongfang Lin has been able to determine that Ji Ming is still the same Ji Ming, but the change is really big. His confident bearing, as well as his meaningful words, are signs of his growth.
After all, he went to Qi to be a proton for a year, and it is reasonable to have a transformation. Dongfang Lin didn't think much about it, and under his own brain, all this seemed extremely reasonable.
It was Dongfang Lin who secretly said in his heart: "The Eighth Prince has changed so much, if he changes his appearance, I'm afraid His Majesty won't recognize it." It's just that when he returns to Xianyang, I'm afraid there will be a lot more variables......"
There are some things that are not enough for outsiders either.
Not long after, Dongfang Lin took Ji Ming to the mansion.
Lu Bu and Luo Cheng led people to station, and Jia Xu followed behind Luo Cheng.
As long as anyone with a discerning eye can see that Jia Xu and the three are Ji Ming's cronies, Dongfang Lin is too lazy to offend here.
Fang Cai Ji Ming had already shown interest in the battle situation, and Dongfang Lin had no need to hide it. Anyway, now that the Qi army has the upper hand, they are already in absolute passivity.
If Ji Ming can really come up with a countermeasure to change the current battle situation, wouldn't it be a sure win?
Although Dongfang Lin has a good hand in calculus, this is also Ji Ming's set goal. Now that he has arrived in Anling City, if he still does nothing and returns with defeat, how can he do any good?
In the palace, Dongfang Lin took out a map, which marked the Qi army and the Qin army in detail. This map is much more specific than what Ji Ming saw in Juyang City, which shows that Dongfang Lin really took a hard time.
When Dongfang Lin explained the general situation, Ji Ming's expression suddenly became solemn. The difference in strength between the two sides is really not a star and a half, and it is not easy for Dongfang Lin to continue to support it.
Don't look at Li Ling, who has not yet sent troops to attack, as long as he makes up his mind, it will not take half a month to take Anling City. It's just that correspondingly, the Qi army also has to pay the price for it.
Seeing Ji Ming's solemn expression, a wry smile appeared on Dongfang Lin's face, and he said helplessly: "Now our army has no way to advance, no way to retreat, and can only stick to the front line of Anling Juyang."
"Based on this map, I'm afraid the Qi army won't wait too much time for me." Ji Ming's eyes condensed slightly, and he said in a deep voice. He did not separate himself from Dongfang Lin, but turned against the guest.
Dongfang Lin didn't think much about it, he said with a straight face: "The last general has already sent the war report back to Xianyang, and Your Majesty will definitely not sit idly by." But the question now is, will they be able to hold out until reinforcements arrive? ”
"The offensive of the Qi army is gradually becoming a success, as long as Li Ling is determined to attack, it will be a dead end."
"If we want to change the situation, we can only take the initiative to attack, and passive defense will only get deeper and deeper."
Ji Ming said angrily, without fear.
However, Dongfang Lin shook his head and said, "Your Highness thinks that the last general has never considered taking the initiative? Now the defense line of the Qi army is arranged like an iron bucket, and it does not give our army a chance to take advantage of it at all. ”
"If we really want to move, then we can only withdraw to the territory of Qin, but at that time, the Qi army will definitely not let us leave easily. Li Ling is bound to design an ambush and take advantage of the situation. ”
After all, he had been guarding the eastern border for many years, how could Dongfang Lin not know Li Ling's methods, but the gap in strength between the two sides was huge, and he couldn't deal with it at all. This is not a so-called conspiracy, but a conspiracy of Chiguoguo.
"What the general said is not true, although the design of the Qi army is deep, it still has a glimmer of vitality."
Jia Xu said loudly.
