"What do you call South Korea? This is the reason why you betrayed the Qin State and surrendered to Korea? Gong Qi looked sarcastic.

Li Yi nodded, and said as a matter of course: "Seven years ago, the Qin State had a mandate of heaven. But now, the Qin State is only 800 miles away, and it is trapped by Han and Zhao, and cannot enter the Central Plains eastward. Can't my brother see it? King Qin is old, and this world no longer belongs to the Qin State! ”

Duke Qi stood up suddenly, drew his sword and said angrily: "Rebel ministers and thieves, you dare to sarcastically mock the king!" ”

Li Yi did not draw his sword to face each other, but shook his head silently, sighed and said, "Is King Qin old, my brother should know better than me!" The Qin State established the country with military merits, and the reason why it has won many battles over the past few decades is nothing more than the stimulation of military exploits! But now, the Qin State has lost Sanchuan, Hedong, Nanyang, Hanzhong, Ba, and Shu six counties, and has been defeated repeatedly, the soldiers have been frightened, and the people have been weakened. What is the Qin State going to use to dominate the world? ”

After speaking, he paused slightly, and said: "This time, the Qin State conspired to surrender Han and Zhao in a war, doesn't my brother feel that he is in a hurry?" From the perspective of the foolish brother, the reason why King Qin is so anxious for quick success and quick profit is probably because he knows how many catties and taels of Qin State! The more time passed, the stronger Korea became, and the weaker Qin became. King Qin's decision was mostly a helpless move! Let's talk about the crown prince, after the death of King Qin, it must be the prince pillar who ascends the throne. If the crown prince is virtuous, there is still a glimmer of hope for the Qin State. But the prince seems to be benevolent and righteous, but in fact he is frivolous. His talent is not as good as that of Gongzi Yong (the eldest son of King Qin, Zaoxu). With the prestige accumulated by King Qin for decades, he can still suppress the current turbulent government and opposition. Once the king of Qin died, the crown prince was in charge. Qin is worried about domestic and foreign troubles, how can he send a letter to Guguan in the east? ! Brother may as well sue me! ”

Gong Qi snorted coldly and said, "King Qin should be strong. Corporal Prince Zhu Lixian, yes or no, you don't need to tell. We, the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State, are united, and who can break through Tongguan in the whole world? It's a big deal that our Qin State will recuperate, wait for the chaos in Shandong, and then cross the river eastward. Watch the Central Plains! ”

Regarding the sophistry of the Duke of Qi, Li Yi just laughed and said, "Brother is right in the first half of his sentence. The state of Qin raised the troops of the whole country this time. Labor and mobilization, and lose tens of thousands of troops, can not get the size of the land! The Qin State could indeed only cultivate the voice. If you use troops again, it will be the way to destroy the country. Wei was defeated. Either the country will perish or sink and decay. It's all in South Korea. Wei could no longer prevent South Korea from dominating the Central Plains. King Zhao is young and not to be worried, King Qi is mediocre and not worth mentioning, King Chu is so happy, and King Yan is looking forward and backward, all of which are not the choice of the Ming Lord. In my opinion, under the whole world, the one who can dominate the world is none other than King Han! Why don't you give up the darkness and turn to the light. Follow me to serve King Han? With the talent of the elder brother, the official worship of the three princes and nine kings is only a few years! ”

"You're trying to persuade me to surrender?" The koji man crossed his eyebrows and said coldly.

Li Yi nodded solemnly. Gong Qi didn't wait for Li Yi to answer, the long sword was unsheathed, pointed directly at Li Yi, and said angrily: "Qin State has a decapitated general, and there is no one who surrenders!" ”

Li Yi inadvertently took a step back slightly, avoiding the long sword in the hand of the Duke of Qi, and said, "Win the king and defeat the king!" History has always been written by the victors, and decades later, who still knows what is right and wrong, right and wrong. Later generations only know that it was South Korea that unified the world, and the world was also bright. A wise man like an elder brother may also be portrayed as a person who uses his mantis arm as a car and does not measure his own strength! Brother, don't you think that there are enough wars in the world? Only when the seven kingdoms are unified, will the people live a good life! Wouldn't it be great if my brother was willing to defect, not only saving 30,000 Qin families, so that their families would not bear the pain of losing their husbands, sons, and fathers, but also speeding up the pace of Korea's domination of the world?! ”

Gong Qi sneered: "You are delusional! My lord is by no means a betrayer! As a soldier, the horse leather shroud is still the greatest glory! Surrender is the greatest shame for soldiers! ”

Li Yi sighed, knowing that he couldn't convince the stubborn Lu Gong, but he couldn't bear to let the talented Qi Gong be buried in Luoyang City like this and turn into a handful of loess, so he said excitedly: "Glory?!" The so-called glory of my brother is to seal the territory and tear up the land, so be happy and revenge! As far as I know, my brother has not yet had no heirs, and Ling Zun Lingtang has long since passed away. There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great. If the elder brother renounces the sacrifice of his ancestors, what face will he have to see Lingzun Lingtang? ”

Gong Qi's expression was in a trance, the hesitation in his eyes flashed, and he said strongly: "Loyalty and filial piety can't be both!" It's all providence! It's all providence! ”

"Providence is that the King of Qin is in a hurry to succeed and is in danger of a hundred thousand troops! Providence means that even if the elder brother does not surrender to death, he will never be able to return to Guanzhong! Providence is that South Korea will rule the world! Why should my brother fight against Providence?! ”

"Hahahaha! My life is up to me! My life is up to me! Heaven is going to kill my army of 100,000, and I will not fulfill the wish of heaven! The Duke said madly.

Li Yi gently stroked the hilt of the sword, and between the lightning and flint, he drew his sword and pointed it directly at the Duke of Qi, and said, "Brother! It's been a long time since we've tried swordsmanship! Don't say that I didn't give my brother a chance, if my brother wins the long sword in my hand, I will make my own decisions and let you cross the river (Yellow River)? If my brother is lucky, he may be able to kill Taiyuan and join Bai Qi! ”

Lu Gong's face showed joy, squinted his eyes and said suspiciously: "Is this true? ”

If what Li Yi said is true, then the Qin army has a glimmer of life. Duke Qi was sure that with the 30,000 army under his command, facing the 100,000 Wei army in Hedong, he could completely fight his way out. This result is definitely the best way out for the Qin army. Staying in Luoyang is always a dead end! Even if the Han army doesn't take the initiative to attack, just besieging the city can trap the 30,000 Qin troops who have little grain and grass left! Of course, the premise is that the South Korean army did not cheat! But Luoyang City is dilapidated, with or without Luoyang City as a barrier, the significance to the Qin army is really not big!

"Seriously! Otherwise, it's like this case! As he spoke, Li Yi slashed over the bookcase in front of him with a sword.

Qi Gong nodded, wiped his palms with some excitement, and said, "Compared with swordsmanship, I have never lost to you!" You'll regret that decision! ”

Li Yi was noncommittal, but replied lightly: "If I win, I will naturally let my brother's 30,000 army pass!" But what if the brother loses? ”

"Lost?" Gong Qi never thought of this possibility, in his opinion. Many of Li Yi's swordsmanship were taught to him by himself, even though he hadn't seen Li Yi for more than two years, but during this time. How could Li Yi's swordsmanship grow so much, and how could he lose?! But since Li Yi raised this question, it was not good for Gong Qi not to answer. According to the equivalent conditions, Li Yi has allowed his 30,000 army to be spared after defeat, so he must also promise that he will hand over the 30,000 army to Li Yi after his defeat. But the problem is that the Duke will never accept this mention. In case, even a 1 in 100,000 chance. If you lose, you will lose a lot!

So, the Duke said in a tricky way: "If I lose." The head on the neck is yours! ”

According to this condition, if the Duke of Qi wins, it is equivalent to saving the 30,000 Qin army, and if the Duke of Qi loses, it is just a loss of his own life.

Li Yi was naturally reluctant to agree to this condition. If that's the case. Why waste your lips and tongue and your husband! It should have been ambushed a long time ago, and they rushed up to take the first rank of the Gong Xiang!

"Elder brother's head doesn't seem to be as valuable as the 30,000 Qin army. What's more, once a person dies, he has no value, doesn't my brother know? Li Yi said with a smile, there was no tension before the life-and-death duel!

"Then you name a condition?" Qi Gong clenched his fist and said tentatively.

"The conditions are simple. If my brother is defeated, I don't want my brother's head. But beg my brother to provide us with ten years of South Korea. Li Yi stated his conditions.

Gong Qi immediately refused, saying, "It's not proper! Inappropriate! If you want me to be used by Korea, you might as well kill me! This condition is not appropriate! Change one! ”

"Brother is worried about his front and back name?" Li Yi asked.

Gong Qi is noncommittal, but in Li Yi's view, not opposing is recognition. If Qin knew that Qin's own Lang Zhongling Gong was actually used by South Korea, Gong Qi would be completely reduced to a traitor, and at that time, he could only be honestly loyal to South Korea. Whether it is for Korea to drive for ten years or a year, it is impossible for the Qin State to regain trust in a minister who has defected!

Li Yi explained: "If I promise my brother that during this time, my brother's news in Korea will never leak out, and my brother does not have to harm the interests of the Qin State, this time can be shortened to three years, does my brother still think it is inappropriate?" ”

The Duke hesitated for a moment, thinking to himself, if he could do these things, it would be not inappropriate! For fear of annoying Li Yi and letting Li Yi walk away, Gong Qi finally agreed, but added: "I will never lose!" ”

Li Yi didn't refute, just made a gesture of please. The two retreated to the outside of the pavilion with their long swords in their hands, carefully observing each other's every move.

The best thing for the Duke is to crush the enemy with wave after wave of continuous offensives, looking for the enemy's flaws and killing them with one blow, although he is also good at defense, but his nature is to attack after all, and he is also a supporter of the theory that attack is the best defense. His swordsmanship is also like his soldiers, emphasizing the opening and closing.

Li Yi is different, although he learned a lot of his swordsmanship from Lu Gong, but he integrated it into his own style. If there is one word to describe it, it is that the sword goes off the rails. Li Yi's sword was like a poisonous snake, exuding the aura of a ghost, without too many fancy movements, and the emphasis was on killing with one blow.

The long sword in the hand of the Duke of Qi is constantly changing direction, (the next one will be modified later, I see that there are not many automatic subscriptions, and it should not affect the genuine subscription)

Duke Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said awe-inspiringly: "General Ben expects that Li Yi will not be so despicable, otherwise, he will not be able to win." If it is really an ambush of the Korean army, General Ben has not been spared, Vice General Li, you will take over the army in my place! Those who do not obey your orders, below the school captain, can be killed! Rest assured, General Ben will not become a prisoner of the Korean army! ”

"General!" Everyone said with complicated expressions.

"General Ben has made up his mind! Do the generals think that the long sword in the hands of this general is not good? ”

"Whoa!" The generals will have no choice but to answer.

Gong Qi nodded slightly, and asked the envoy, "Where is the meeting place agreed by Li Yi'er?" ”

"Ten miles out of the West Gate, a gazebo. General Li said that he would wait for the general for an hour. ”

"Someone! Change the clothes of the general and prepare the horses! "Lu Gong, who has decided to go to the meeting alone, has always attached great importance to grooming, and at this time, he is even more reluctant to fall behind! Even if the strength is inferior to the Han army, even if he has fallen into the danger of nine deaths and one life, but in terms of momentum, Qi Gong is unwilling to lose to anyone!

The sound of the horse's hooves resounded for only a quarter of an hour, and a man dressed in black and black armor rode to the agreed place. in the gazebo. Li Yi, who was dressed in a white robe, was not wearing armor, a long sword was casually tied around his waist, and in front of him was just a jar of wine. Two cups, looking at a few peach blossoms outside the pavilion, drink alone.

The sound of horses' hooves seemed to wake Li Yi up, and Li Yi turned around and just saw the solemn face of the Duke dismounted cleanly. With a smile on his face like a peach blossom blooming in April, Li Yi waved it from afar and said, "If my brother comes later." This jar of wine will let the little brother drink it all! ”

Lu Gong snorted coldly, his face disdainful, but he sat down unceremoniously. He poured himself a full glass of wine, drank it all, wiped his mouth, and said, "This wine is too sweet." Not good. Not good! ”

Li Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Spirits hurt your body!" On this good day, the beautiful scenery, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the scenery is not harmonious when you drink spirits. This jar of wine is made from last year's peach blossoms, and it is just right to drink it at this time! The younger brother has never been willing to drink, so he specially left it to his brother! Unexpectedly, my brother didn't like it! Ay! ”

The Duke smiled. Meaningfully said: "At this time last year, weren't you still in Shu County?" Isn't it. This jar of fine wine is made from the peach blossoms of Shu County? In this case, I should have a few more drinks. ”

Li Yi naturally heard that Gong Qi was satirizing himself for betraying his lord for glory, and he didn't argue, but said softly: "Last year's peach blossoms are still there, and the spring breeze doesn't know last year's people!" What is the difference between this peach blossom and whether it is from Shu County or Sanchuan? ”

Gong Qi shook his head and said, "The difference is naturally big!" I am not a person from the Qin Dynasty, even if I turn into a peach blossom, I will grow up in the Qin country! ”

"Qin State!" Li Yi shook his head and asked rhetorically, "Where does this peach blossom grow to be considered the peach blossom of the Qin Kingdom?" ”

Gong Qi was stunned for a moment, and replied as a matter of course: "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, naturally it is under the rule of the king of Qin, and it is the land of Qin!" Growing in the soil of Qin, even if it is the peach blossom of the Qin country! ”

Li Yi laughed and said, "If you use my brother's remarks, the place where King Qin's edict can be conveyed is Qin Tu. Now the edict of the king of Qin cannot send a letter to Guguan in the east, and the elder brother is in the land of Korea. I don't know if my brother is a peach blossom, should he be considered from Qin or Korea? ”

Duke Qi was slightly angry, and said angrily: "My heart is to Daqin, no matter where I am, I am the people of Daqin!" Even if he incarnates as a peach blossom and grows in the Han realm, he is also the peach blossom of the Qin Kingdom! ”

Li Yi shook his head disapprovingly, and sighed: "Brother, this is a quibble!" Where does the peach blossom come from? Why does the elder brother even give the peach blossoms to the border? In today's Warring States world, there is a lot of deceit, and there are constant wars! Today, the Qin State will take the South Korean Sanchuan, and tomorrow South Korea will take the Qin State Nanyang, the peach blossoms of the three rivers and Nanyang are not suddenly the peach blossoms of the Qin State, and the peach blossoms of South Korea, isn't it troublesome? ! Peach blossoms aren't that complicated, they're just peach blossoms! Year after year, that's all! ”

"Flowers are flowers, people are people, flowers can't choose where they grow, but people can't be loyal to their country!" Qi Gong retorted.

"Country?" Li Yi smiled even more and said: "Country, country, which is your own country?" As far as Hedong is concerned, it belonged to Wei at first, then belonged to Qin, and returned to Wei seven years ago. Let's talk about the people of the three Jin Dynasty, they are from the root of the Jin people, but the elder brother asks them now, how many of them still miss the Jin Kingdom?! Take the Qin State as an example, the original territory of the Qin State was originally a hundred miles of land in Longyou, and the people of Xianyang today are hundreds of years ago, how many people will think that they are from the Qin State? ! ”

Gong Qi was silent, and he didn't know how to argue for a while. Li Yi continued: "Shang Ying is a patriot, but he is used by Qin Xiaogong, and Great Qin is a hundred years strong. However, no one in this world accuses Shang Ying of not serving the country, saying that Shang Yang is disloyal, why? After the destruction of Zheng Guo in Korea, Shen Bu did not think about recovering Zheng Guo, but assisted Han Zhaohou to change the law and try to become stronger, so that the princes of the world did not dare to underestimate Korea. However, no one in this world accuses Shin of being unfaithful and unjust, but there are many people who praise him. ”

Duke Qi reacted at this time and said: "You can't say that, Wei Guo doesn't know the talent of Shang Ying, so he is used by my Great Qin." Zheng Guo didn't know that Shen was not harmful, so he cheapened South Korea. For the courtiers, which king and which country has the grace to know him, the courtier should be loyal to this country, such as Shang Yang to Qin, Shen Bu to Korea. ”

Li Yi actually nodded and agreed: "Brother Gaojian! However, in the opinion of the younger brother, Shang Ying was able to display his talents in the Qin State, and Shen Bu Harm emerged in South Korea, not only because Qin Xiaogong and Han Zhaohou knew people and made good use of them, but also because Shang Ying and Shen Bu were not harmful. At that time, the defense of the country was only a hundred miles away, even if the law was changed, how strong could it be? In the land of the four wars of the Patriotic Nation, I am afraid that as soon as the law is changed, under the internal turmoil, other countries will annex the Patriotic Country! On the contrary, the Qin State at that time was defeated one after another, and Qin Xiaogong had the intention of working hard, and the Qin State was far away from the Central Plains according to the Central Plains, and was not valued by the Central Plains countries at that time, so it could be successful. When South Korea destroyed Zheng, Shen Buxian was already an official, and with Shen Buxian's talent, it was enough to persuade Zheng Kang to change the law to become strong, although it could not prevent South Korea from destroying Zheng, but it was also enough to protect Zheng Guosheji for more than ten years. However, Shen Buxian didn't do this, but what? It is because Shen Buharm saw that the fall of Zheng Guo was the general trend of the world, and it was useless to redeem it! Therefore, if you want to succeed, you must follow the general trend! Otherwise, there will be nothing to do in life! (To be continued......)
