Chapter 99: King Wei breaks through
After the guards surrendered, Ji Yan still let the soldiers choose to stay freely, and in the end, half of them stayed. After taking in these 50,000 people, Ji Yan's strength reached 130,000, not counting the 20,000 people in Ji Ling's Fengcai battalion.
Ji Yan led the army into Diqiu City, and sent people to appease the people, so that they would not panic, and posted notices everywhere.
Ji Ling led people to chase and kill in the back, and King Wei was now in a hurry to flee for his life, and Shi Hou and Shi Hou fled to the front with 20,000 cavalry, and the 40,000 infantry in the back fell right.
After Ji Ling chased after the infantry who had fallen behind the guards, he directly slashed and killed, these infantry couldn't resist at all, and nearly 10,000 people were killed in a while. The rest of the soldiers saw that the situation was not good, so they all fled to both sides, and Ji Ling did not chase them, but continued to pursue the king's troops.
Diqiu is not far from the border of the Jin Kingdom, only more than 200 miles, and after the Wei army fled to the territory of the Jin Kingdom, they breathed a sigh of relief, and now the horses are no longer able to run. The 20,000 cavalry scattered several thousands, and I don't know if they were killed by Ji Ling's army, or if they fled halfway.
King Wei did not dare to stay and continued to flee in the direction of the capital of the Jin Kingdom.
When Ji Ling led the Fengcai battalion to chase, he was blocked by the guards and killed for half an hour before chasing him out. Halfway through the chase, they were blocked by tens of thousands of infantry left behind by the guards for more than 20 minutes, so after chasing them to the border of the Jin Kingdom, the state called them to escape a long way.
Ji Ling asked the troops to stop, knowing that if they chased after him, they would not be able to catch up, and there was no need to enter the territory of the Jin Kingdom and cause some unnecessary controversy. So after letting the army rest for a while, they returned to Diqiu.
The next day, Ji Ling returned to Diqiu with the Fengqi camp and said to Ji Xian: "Sister Ji Xian, this time I have chased to the border of the Jin Kingdom, and I didn't chase to Zhouhu, I'm sorry." ”
Ji Xian said: "Princess, I can't catch up, this time for me, I have sacrificed so many people in vain, and I don't want to take revenge by fighting anymore." ”
Ji Yan comforted Ji Xian and said, "Why don't we send someone to ask my eldest brother and see what he can do." ”
Ji Ling also said: "Yes, the dead rogue ghost has a lot of ideas, maybe he has a way." ”
Ji Yan said: "Sister Ji Xian, after the security in the city stabilizes in the past few days, you will take people to the city to appease the people and lay a good foundation for ascending the throne as a queen." ”
Ji Xian said: "Why don't you and the princess do it, I really don't want to do it." ”
Ji Yan said: "You can only do it, you are the daughter of the former King Wei, and as the queen, the ministers and the people of the country may still accept it." When we are queens, no one will accept them at all, and other countries will say that we have bad intentions. Now that you have finally defeated the defense of the country and sacrificed so many people, you don't want the defense of the country to go down. ”
"Okay, I'll do it, but you two are in charge of everything." Ji Xian didn't want to sacrifice people anymore.
Ji Ling said: "Call me in the war, let Sister Ji Yan take charge of other things." ”
Ji Yan sent someone to ask Hua Long about his countermeasures to deal with Zhou Hu, and at the same time, he also asked Yan Shu to inform him and ask him to send more people over to help manage the country.
A few days later, Yan Shu sent some people over, and Ji Yan asked them to join the management immediately.
At the same time, the messenger sent to see Hua Long came back and said: "General Hua asked Princess Ji Xian to quickly become king, and then, in the name of King Wei, with 5 million money, to find the Jin State to exchange the heads of Zhou Hu and Shi Hou. If the king of Jin does not agree, let Ji Xian attack the Jin kingdom in the name of avenging his father, and go to capture Zhou Hu and Shi Hou. ”
Ji Ling said: "5 million is too much, and if we 130,000 people fight the Jin Kingdom, we can't win at all." ”
The messenger said, "General Hua said, if Princess Ji Ling asks these two questions. I replied: 5 million money is a good deal, if the state is left in the Jin state, it will also be used by the Jin state in the future, and in the name of helping the state to restore the country, attack the country.
If the King of Jin does not agree to exchange money for heads, as long as our 130,000 people really start attacking the Jin Kingdom, the King of Jin will know that he will settle the account, and will send Zhou Hu and Shi Hou's heads over, and will not fight to the death with us. ”
Ji Ling said: "How can this dead rascal be calculated, I will ask these two questions?" ”
The messenger said: "General Hua also knew that Princess Ji Ling would have a second question, and asked me to reply: Princess Ji Xian didn't care about money at all in order to avenge her father; General Ji Yan can use his brain and know how to think; Only Princess Ji Ling is stupid enough to ask that. ”
Ji Ling scolded: "This dead rascal, he will calculate me from hundreds of miles." At the same time, he looked at the messenger and thought that he was really bold enough to say anything.
The messenger looked at Ji Ling, as if he was not afraid at all, and said: "General Ji Yan, two princesses, I will go down first, General Hua told me to leave quickly after speaking, otherwise I will be beaten." ”
At this moment, Ji Yan and Ji Xian were all laughing, but everyone was a little puzzled when they saw that the messenger said to go, but his feet didn't move at all.
Ji Yan asked: "You said to go, why don't you leave, I'm not afraid that Princess Ji Ling will beat you." ”
Ji Ling also said: "You really think I don't dare to do it." ”
The messenger said, "Princess, no, General Hua said, in case I am beaten by you, ask me to ask General Ji Yanji for 1,000 yuan for medical expenses." So I don't want to leave, and besides, the princess is so beautiful, and she will definitely not hit someone hard. ”
Ji Ling was also laughed at this time, he didn't expect that the messenger was waiting for him to beat him for 1,000 money, and his mouth was so sweet. said: "I won't beat you, and let Sister Ji Yan give you 1,000 yuan." ”
After Ji Yan asked the messenger to give the money, she asked, "Why are you so bold?" Dare to spread anything. ”
The messenger said, "General Hua insisted that I say this, and gave me 300 money." He also said that if I said this, maybe I could still get the money, and said that the princess was not good at brains, and the money was easy to cheat. Before he finished speaking, he ran away.
Ji Yan and Ji Xian laughed desperately again, Ji Ling was angry again, and said, "This dead rascal, I'll settle accounts with him next time." But after saying that, I thought it was funny when I thought about it, and I laughed along.
Ji Yan said: "I didn't expect my eldest brother to amuse us so much from such a distance." ”
Ji Xian also said: "Brother Hua is hundreds of miles away, and he doesn't forget to fight with the princess. ”
After another two days, the order of the entire emperor was put in order, and Ji Xian took some of his father's ministers to the city to pacify the people. After ten days of appeasement in this way, Ji Xian summoned all the ministers of the country into the court to discuss matters.
After everyone arrived, the minister who supported Ji Xian said: "The state has been expelled from the kingdom by the daughter of the former king, Princess Ji Xian. But the country can't be without a king for a day, and the first king is only left with the daughter of Princess Jixian. The princess of Ji Xian is sympathetic to the people, loves the people like a son, and has good martial arts, we should respect Princess Ji Xian as the king of Wei and ascend the throne on the same day. ”
All the ministers jumped down and said, "There has never been a precedent for a woman to be king, and it is not in accordance with the etiquette system." ”
Ji Yan said: "Except for Princess Ji Xian, who still has the ability to be the king of Wei." ”
One minister said, "I don't approve of a woman being king." ”
Ji Xian said: "I don't need your approval, you can retire now and go home and farm well." ”
Now everyone realized that Ji Xian didn't need the support of his ministers at all, and when they called everyone to come, they were just making a show, so they no longer objected.
Some ministers were afraid of losing their official positions, so they took the lead in supporting Ji Xian and said: "Why can't women be kings, as long as they have the ability, we support it." ”
Under the strength of Ji Xian, even if the ministers did not support it, they did not dare to oppose it, and Ji Xian officially ascended the throne as the king of Wei.
After Ji Xian became the queen of Wei, she continued to appease the people of the country. At the same time, let the people sent by Yan Rate organize a large number of personnel to help and guide the production of the patriotic people, and provide all material support, and continue to implement the policy of tax exemption in the first year and halving the tax in the second year.
Now that the sowing season has just begun, the people of the country have indeed experienced the benefits, and as for who is the king of Wei, the people are too lazy to care.
