Yu is located at the foot of Zhongtiao Mountain, the royal city is called Pinglu, with a population of 600,000, and the national strength belongs to the middle of the vassal states.

In the north of Yu State, there is a strong Jin State, the strength of which is one of the few in the world, and the four major vassal states of Qin, Qi, Chu and Zhao are called "Eastern Qi, Western Qin, Central Zhao, Northern Jin and Southern Chu", and its influence is strong, far beyond the reach of Yu State.

Since the Jin Dynasty ascended the throne, the Jin State has made great efforts to govern the country, cultivated fertile land, recruited talents, and trained armor soldiers, so that the people of the Jin Kingdom have rapidly grown to 6 million, with 400,000 armor and 5,000 chariots, which is huge.

Jin Xiangong had the intention to expand his territory to the south, and strive to extend his tentacles into the fertile Central Plains, and in front of him was the Yu State with 600,000 people and 30,000 soldiers.

With the strong strength of the Jin State, it was naturally easy to set foot on the Yu State, and the successive monarchs of the Yu State also had insight into the wolf ambitions of the Jin State, so they formed an alliance with the Yu State in the south, and joined forces to jointly fight against the powerful Jin State.

Xingyang, the royal city of the Kingdom of Qiu, is located on the bank of the Yellow River, and the situation is dangerous. There are 1.5 million people in the country, and there are 80,000 soldiers, although it is not as good as the powerful Jin State, but it also makes the strong Jin like a fish in the throat, and every time you want to get rid of it, you can get rid of it quickly.

However, because Yu and Yu formed an alliance, advanced and retreated together, and took advantage of the dangers of mountains and rivers to repel the temptations of the Jin State many times, so that the tentacles of the Jin State could not enter the Central Plains for a long time, and the strength has always been the weakest one among the five princes.

In recent years, the Duke of Jin has gradually changed his strategy and began to win over the previously disdainful Yu State, sending envoys to visit him many times, and offering various treasures to improve the hostile relations between them.

This time, in order to destroy the kingdom of Yu, the Duke of Jin Xian sent the doctor Xun Xi to Pinglu with a heavy gift to pay homage to Uncle Yu Xiang, to win over the relationship, take advantage of the way to cut down the country, and offer a horse and a treasure.

Yu Xianggong couldn't put down the treasures brought by Xun Xi, but he was hesitant about whether to borrow the way to the Jin State, so he sent someone to recall Xiangbang Baili Xi, who was inspecting the people's situation on the bank of the Yellow River and organizing flood control, to Wangcheng to ask about countermeasures.

"Boom ......"

With the sound of hurried horses' hooves from far and near, Baili Xi and his party of dozens of people arrived at the west gate of the royal city, and the guards guarding the city raised their hands from afar to greet each other, allowing Baili Xi and his party to enter the city on horseback.

Fang Li first arrived, and along the way, he believed that silence is Jin's maxim, tried to talk less and observe more, and first figured out the general situation of the world before making the next calculation.

Yu Guo said that it is not big or small, it is two hundred and eighty miles longitudinally from north to south, and one hundred and twenty miles from east to west, and the area is roughly equivalent to a county in the Han Dynasty.

Pinglu, the capital of Yu State, because of its long history, is quite prosperous in the city, the streets and alleys are bustling with pedestrians, the shops are lined up one after another, and all kinds of hawkers walk through the streets and alleys, so it is not lively.

Baili Xi, as the prime minister of Yu State, was the first person under the prince, and after entering the royal city, the door guests in fresh clothes and angry horses opened the way in front of them, dispersed pedestrians, and went straight to the palace in a hurry.

The national strength of the Yu State is limited, and the so-called royal palace and the palace imagined by Fang Li are like mud, which is neither resplendent nor carved beams; It is not so much a royal palace as a Taishou mansion, at best, it is more decent than the county government.

But although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs, but it should have no less pomp, and the palace is surrounded by a black brick wall, and flags flutter on the wall. In front of the palace gate, there are 100 heavily armed armor soldiers, guarding the palace gate with high spirits.

A military general about eight feet tall, burly, wearing a helmet and armor, with a sword hanging from his waist, about forty years old, and a mustache with a mustache was pacing back and forth in front of the palace gate, with an anxious look, like an ant on a hot pot.

"Father, you're finally back?"

The middle-aged military general saw the white-haired Baili Xi return from a distance, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and with a few followers, he strode forward to greet him.

"Appeal ......"

Baili Xi was full of anger, although he galloped all the way to a hundred and ten miles, but he still did not blush or panting, and with a majestic face of reins and reins, he turned over and dismounted, without the slightest hint of old age.

"Why did the envoy of the Jin Kingdom come? How did the lord reply? ”

Baili Xi handed the horse whip to his son Baili Shi, tidied up his somewhat messy clothes, and asked in a solemn voice, with an extraordinary bearing.

"This middle-aged military general calls Baili Xi his father, it should be his son, right?"

Fang Li quietly glanced up and down at the middle-aged military general who was talking to Baili Xi, and secretly guessed in his heart, and at this moment, a crisp prompt sound of the system suddenly sounded in his mind: "Qiang...... The master can use the system to query the ability of the people he is in contact with, not only by mobile phone query, but also by using the idea of query, audio-visual collocation, which will provide all-round assistance to the master. ”

Fang Li's heart moved slightly, and he subconsciously hid his mobile phone, so as not to be unclear after being discovered, and communicated with the system with his mind: "Then Lao Zunjia will help me check Baili Xi's ability, right?" ”

"Qiang ...... The system is being tested, please wait! ”

"Qiang ...... After the inquiry, Baili Xi belongs to the development of talents, and the four dimensions are as follows: Baili Xi - Domination 68, Wu Yong 56, Strategy 91, Internal Affairs 95."

"I understand the four dimensions of domination and martial arts, but what is the concept of developmental talents?" Fang was puzzled and asked the system.

The system patiently answered: "All talents in the world can be planned into three categories, namely, war, development, and auxiliary. Of course, the lord can also let war talents develop internal affairs and development talents to lead the military, but this cannot give full play to the maximum potential of talents, and often can only play the role of half the effort. ”

Fang Li suddenly had an epiphany: "Understood, then you can check this general's ability for me again?" ”

"Qiang ...... After the inquiry, this person is Baili Xi's son Baili Shi, the name Meng Ming, belongs to the war-type talent, 86 in command, 83 in force, 71 in strategy, and 63 in internal affairs."

Fang Li was about to ask the system if he could check his ability, but suddenly found that a young sergeant with red lips and white teeth, fair skin, bright eyes, slender body, wearing armor, and a sword hanging from his waist behind Baili Shi kept looking at himself, lest he reveal his clues, so he withdrew from the system, pretending to stand behind Baili Xi as if nothing had happened, listening to the conversation between their father and son.

Baili Shi replied to his father: "Back to my father's words, the envoy of the Jin Kingdom has brought a BMW that can travel thousands of miles a day, as well as a piece of jade plate-like thorns, intending to borrow from our country to cut down the enemy. ”

Listening to what his son said, Baili Xi's cheeks twitched slightly, and he muttered: "Borrowing the way to cut down Yu? I think nine times out of ten, we'll cut down our Yu country by the way, right? If the lips die, the teeth are cold, and the old man must prevent the lord from forming an alliance with the Jin state. ”

Baili Shi nodded and said: "What my father said is extremely true, and the child and the palace doctor are also in this opinion, it is true that the Jin Kingdom will use the Tao to defeat Yu, but after destroying the Kingdom of Yu, it will inevitably attack my Yu State, and this matter is definitely not feasible!" The lord is ready to move when he sees the treasure, and only his father can stop the lord's decision. ”

Baili Xi's eyes were like iron, and he took a big stride and said: "Follow me into the palace!" ”

Baili Xi walked a few steps, turned his head and glanced at Fang Li and the young ranger on the road, and shouted: "Xia Ran, Fang Li, the two of you enter the palace with the old man." ”

"It seems that I have a lot of status in Baili Xi's mind, and there are more than 30 doormen present, and they only ordered me and this guy called Xia Ran."

Fang Li muttered to himself in his heart, and clasped his fists with the young ranger named Xia Ran and saluted: "Huh! ”

At that moment, Baili Shi was leading the way, Baili Xi carried his hands behind his back, and his bearing was calm, Fang Li and Xia Ran hugged left and right, leaving dozens of doormen and going straight to the palace.

"Grandpa, won't you take me with you when you enter the palace?" Baili Xi had just taken a few steps, and the young sergeant with red lips and white teeth behind him asked with an aggrieved expression.

Baili Xi didn't stop, and said without looking back: "Call me Xiangbang, how can you allow a woman to participate in national affairs?" ”

The young sergeant dressed as a man showed a look of grievance, and muttered: "Why can my father call you father, and I can't call you grandpa?" It's clearly patriarchal! ”

As soon as Baili Xi and his entourage entered the palace, they saw a middle-aged civil official wearing a cyan robe and a clear face trotting up to meet him, and said from a distance: "Xiangbang, you are finally back, if you don't come back, the lord will form an alliance with the Jin State." ”

It was none other than Yu Guo's Doctor Gong Zhiqi, and it was he who recommended Baili Xi to Yu Xianggong at the beginning, allowing Baili Xi to enter the official career. It was only later that Baili Xi showed a strong ability to govern the country, and his career was prosperous, and he was appointed as Xiangbang by Yu Xianggong and became the leader of the hundred officials of Yu State.

Although Baili Xi is now in a respected position, he still has great respect for Gong Zhiqi, the leader of the way, and stopped and saluted: "Doctor Gong, why is the lord so eager to form an alliance with the Jin Kingdom, who is the envoy who came?" ”

Gong Zhiqi replied: "If you go back to Xiangbang, it will be the doctor of the Jin Kingdom." ”

Baili Xi bowed his head slightly and said, "Oh...... It turned out to be him, I heard that this is a lobbyist with a clever tongue and a lotus tongue, no wonder it makes the lord mess up. Now that the old man is back, he must stop the alliance of Yu Jin and avoid the occurrence of false ways to destroy the enemy, so as not to die and his teeth will be cold! ”
