Chapter Ninety-Nine: Bargaining
As soon as Xiang Yan waited for Xia Ji to leave, he came to Yu Xin, frowned, and said, "Is our method of agitating the generals useful?" ”
"It must be useful, she is the lord of the country, does Uncle Xia Yu dare not listen to her? Even if Uncle Xia Yu didn't want to hear it, he was afraid that the generals under her would turn against her. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info hehe... I'm afraid that at this time, Uncle Xia Yu has been overwhelmed by her generals. With Xia Ji handing her the steps, it will no longer damage her prestige in the army, but I am afraid that she will be extremely happy. Yu Xin concluded.
"Humph! Just don't slap yourself in the face when the time comes. Gongsun finally stood beside Yu Xin and said lightly. Although they were already in the main hall, when the three of them discussed using Chen Guo's officials to replace Xia Ji as a talisman, they secretly discussed such a play, but Gongsun just didn't like it, Xia Ji and Yu Xin appeared in their sight at the same time.
If Xia Ji heard the words of the three of them, she would have to be angry, it turned out that the three of them had already hit her with their ideas, but they just changed the way and made her obedient.
"Sir's plan will work! Although I have only been with Mr. for less than a day, Mr.'s intelligence has already made me admire the five bodies. Xiang Yan expressed his support for Yu Xin.
"Hehe... The general hurriedly went to find someone, arranged to send a secret message to Qu Xu outside the city, and when the time came, we would attack it unprepared, and take Wanqiu City in one fell swoop, at that time, not only could Mi Zilan not be able to find trouble with our second guard army on the left, I am afraid that I would have to put on a smiling face, congratulations to us. ”
"Haha... If that's the case, Mr. Yu really included Xia Ji in his account, and I definitely didn't see it. Xiang Yan laughed loudly, and suddenly noticed that something seemed wrong with the atmosphere, so he quickly turned around and left, arranging to send a secret message to Qu Xu outside the city.
Yu Xin stared at Xiang Yan's back with a black line, turned his head, and said with a sad face: "I really didn't mean that." “
"Humph! Don't think that your little moves in the main hall really go unnoticed. Gongsun raised his foot and stomped on the instep of Yu Xin. It's become her signature move.
"Ahh Yu Xin's face turned pale, ignoring the sharp pain in his feet, his brain was spinning, and he was anxious to think about how to explain it, so as to tide over the difficulties and avoid being beaten violently.
"It's not that I want to take care of you, but you must at least be worthy of Yanyan." Gongsun unexpectedly explained to Yu Xin.
"Huh?" Yu Xin dragged out his tone this time and spoke out in surprise. This is the first time in history that Gongsun will explain the reason to himself. In the past, he was beaten up either by looking at himself or by his eyes, but this time he was merciful and gave a reason, which made Yu Xin not care about feeling a trace of guilt for Yan Yan, only staring at Gongsun with his eyes wide and looking at Gongsun with his mouth open, as if he didn't know her.
"Look at what, look!" Gongsun's heart suddenly turned red, his face was rarely red, and he was secretly annoyed in his heart, so he decisively raised his leg to attack Yu Xin again, and quickly turned around and fled in embarrassment.
"Whew!" Yu Xin finally felt the pain and jumped up holding his feet.
When Yu Xin was holding his feet and blowing, Xia Ji had a cold face and walked over.
"Say? How are you going to release them? ”
"Well, it depends on your sincerity." Yu Xin put down his feet, regained his calm expression, and pointed to the Chen **** array that was still compounded into an iron wall.
"It's okay to let you out, but you have to release my people first." Natsuhime's eyes rolled.
"General Xiang went to catch a few chickens and kill them!" Yu Xin didn't even look at Xia Ji, and Xiang Yan, who said the wrong thing, sneakily hid aside, and didn't dare to step forward, shouted loudly.
"You!" Xia Ji's phoenix eyes straightened.
"What are you? We originally thought that the two countries would be friendly, and we couldn't bear to hurt the lives of your Chen Guo officials, so we agreed to give you a chance. Yu Xin interrupted.
"And what are your conditions?" Xia Ji lost her momentum a little and explored.
"It's simple, get us out of the city safely, and we'll let them go."
"Humph! If you say I'm not sincere, you will be sincere. You are all out, if you go back at that time, my Chen Guo officials will become your pawns to hold my Chen Guo hostage, right? That's impossible! Xia Ji glared at Yu Xin and said angrily.
"Then let's release the palace people first to show our sincerity, and after we leave the city, we will release the officials, it's okay." Yu Xin spread his hands.
"Shh Xia Ji glanced at Yu Xin, and the place where her hands were around her chest was even more upright.
"So, what do you have in mind?" Yu Xin swallowed and threw the question back to Xia Ji.
"Let's come according to the head, and if you Chu Jun goes out alone, let one person go." Xia Ji threw out the method she had discussed with Uncle Xia and other generals.
"Are you kidding me? There are more than 2,000 of us, how many Chen Guo officials have been detained? For every 100 people we send out, we will put one Chen Guo official. After the last 100 people left the city, they released the officials of Chen Guo. ”
"Okay! But you and the general, as well as her, must remain in the city as hostages. Xia Ji pointed to Xiang Yan and Gongsun, who had come forward silently.
"No! We are hostages, aren't we condemned by you? No hostages can be kept. Yu Xin shook his head and refused.
"Then if you don't keep hostages, how can we believe that after you leave the city, you will release the last batch of officials."
"I promise with my personality! You have to believe in my character! Yu Xin raised his hand to the sky.
For a while, the three disdainful gazes all shot towards Yu Xin.
"You see, even your own people don't believe you, and you can still make people believe you." Xia Ji pointed at Xiang Yan and Gongsun and looked at Yu Xin with disdain.
Yu Xin turned his head and looked at Gongsun and Xiang Yan with a sad and angry expression. For everyone's safety, I was tired and tired of bargaining here, but I didn't expect to be demolished by my own family.
The two of them felt guilty, lowered their heads, and did not dare to look at Yu Xin.
After a while, Gongsun felt that he should not show weakness to Yu Xin, and raised his head again, glaring at Yu Xin, with a look of what can you do with me.
Yu Xin was weak-hearted, and hurriedly turned his head away and glared at Xiang Yan angrily.
Xiang Yan secretly turned his back, licked his smiling face and said: "Mr. is full of wisdom and elusiveness, but there is really no... ”
"Shut up!" Yu Xin waved his hand and interrupted Xiang Yan. This guy definitely can't say anything good.
Yu Xinzhong turned his head to look at Xia Ji again, and saw that his pretty face was full of smiles, and he looked like an old god was there, so he was not annoyed.
Xia Ji saw Yu Xin looking at herself, and hurriedly straightened her face, revealing that I had no other way.
"I can't believe I can't think of any other way. It's a big deal, let's go our separate ways. Yu Xin said angrily. made Xia Ji roll her eyes.
"They're all out, I'll stay." When Yu Xin was racking his brains to think of countermeasures, Gongsun suddenly spoke.
"No! It's too dangerous. Yu Xin Huo Ran turned his head to stare at Gongsun Dao.
"Or I'd better stay. I'm the deputy commander of the guard, and my military rank is higher than yours, so I'd better stay. Xiang Yan said to Xia Ji.
"It's because you're everyone's commander, and after everyone leaves the city, you still want you to restrain the commander, so you can't stay." Yu Xin shook his head and said.
"Yo, you think this is a vegetable market and you can bargain." Xia Ji raised her head and joked, paused and continued, "I'm talking about the three of you staying as hostages. ”
"Impossible!" Yu Xin took a deep breath, and then said with a hideous face: "I'll stay, and they all go out." Either agree, or everyone will die, and it's a big deal to die with you Chen Guo. ”
"You, huh! Then I'll believe you once, and I agreed. Although Xia Ji showed anger on her face, she hurriedly agreed, for fear that she would regret it. She had long seen that Yu Xin was the core of this group. Although she didn't know that Yu Xin was actually just a soldier who had just joined the army, and the two next to her, one was the deputy commander of the authentic guard army, a decent general, and the other was the deputy general of the pioneer battalion of one of the three major battalions of the Chu State, the future baron, who was personally assigned by the marshal of the Chu State Chen Army, Mi Zilan. They are the real high-ranking officials that Uncle Xia told him to keep as hostages.
But Xia Ji made a mistake, although Yu Xin's status is humble, he is indeed the backbone of the three.
Just when Yu Xin and Xia Ji thought that the matter had been settled, another person stood up.
