The eyes of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military are focused on Chu Hou's body, at this moment, only Bao Hongde is a little weak-hearted, the reason for this matter is only known to him, this expedition is not because of Wenshuo's cooperation with himself, but the old department left by Yingde's brother is familiar with the combat method of the dog Rong.

And this battle with Beidi is the first battle in the real sense, and Bao Hongde himself does not know his strength, only after the battle and test on the battlefield can he know how much difference he has between his combat ability and this king who is regarded as a mediocre *.

He believed that if Ji Gongyan was still able to gallop in Dongyi and defeat Dongyi's army, his ability must be not far behind. Therefore, even if he has never actually been on the battlefield, Bao Hongde's confidence in his strategy makes him dare to face the battle and believe that he can win.

"Why did Chu Hou say this?" Jin Bo looked at Chu Hou and asked, his heart was inevitably a little uneasy, he had promised Chu Hou to recommend to the king that Chu Hou would lead the troops to fight, but in a blink of an eye, Jin Bo was forced to leave this matter behind, so he looked at Chu Hou at this moment and felt empty.

Chu Hou looked at Jin Bo and sneered, "Back then, the dog Rong once invaded the territory of the Qin State because of the replacement of Qin Hou, and it was the father of Qin Hou who rose up to resist the war that was done by the general old department of Qin Shizi, who died on the battlefield that day. In this way, he invited the credit of the victory to his arms, and the doctor was also thick-skinned! ”

"Wei Chen admits that the credit for the defeat of the dog Rong that day was not just me, but the common work of the Qin army, it can be seen that my Qin army is well-trained, even if the commander is killed, he can fight up and kill the enemy, I want to ......" Bao Hongde paced back and forth in the main hall, and then looked at Chu Hou and said, "Chu Hou is just too worried!" ”

"Am I worrying too much, or are you deliberately hiding it from everyone?" Chu Hou looked at Bao Hongde and asked, "This group of dead soldiers of the pre-Qin prince once made a heavy oath to defend the border in this life and strive to protect the peace of the Qin country, that is to say, they will not leave the border pass if they do not die, the reason why the Qin army is feared by the dog Rong is that the old department trained by the pre-Qin prince, not the rest of the Qin soldiers, even if Qin Hou won the power later, it is still inevitable that he will not be able to get the embarrassment of real military power, yes, the transfer of the Qin army has always been stretched!" Why does Dr. Bao think that he will win this trip? This battle is about you, it's just a personal victory, but it's about the Jin Kingdom, that is, the destruction of the country! ”

"That's right," Zheng Qizhi also stepped forward, responding to Chu Hou's remarks, as Chu Hou expected, a sneer appeared on his face, looking at Ji Gongyan's ridiculous expression when he was being commanded by his brothers, he felt a trace of refreshment in his heart, Zheng Qizhi looked at Bao Hongde up and down, "Doctor Bao is just a civil servant, but now he wants to be a military general, it is too risky!" ”

"Is it to ask General Zheng to lead the army to the battle, and victory is guaranteed?" Father Yu Shi turned to Zheng Qizhi and asked, with a smile on his face, he was a full smiling tiger, but this was very sharp, Zheng Qizhi snorted coldly, and he would not take Father Yu's provocation to heart, "Naturally, it can be guaranteed." ”

"Why?" Father Yu asked.

This sentence made Zheng Qizhi difficult, after thinking about it, he felt that this matter was too difficult to do, his courage and good fighting are naturally known to the world, but at this moment, he wants to ask him to prove his courage and good fighting, which is inevitably difficult for some strong people! However, not all the people here at this moment are unprepared like Zheng Qizhi, and they improvised to dismantle the stage, Chu Hou stepped forward and said, "If the king is willing to send tens of millions of people to support the north of Jin, he is willing to make a military order with hundreds of lives of my Xiong family, and if Weichen is defeated, hundreds of people of the Xiong family will obey orders!" ”

"I am also willing to use the Zheng family to establish a military order, and this battle will definitely be won!" Zheng Qizhi got the inspiration of Chu Hou and immediately stepped forward and said, his words inevitably made Chu Hou sneer, "General Zheng is not a prince, if Zheng Bo takes your life to make a military order, it is reasonable, but on the other hand, you are the master of Zheng Bo, and take some of the lives of the Zheng family, it is ridiculous!" ”

"Chu Hou don't forget, once you are defeated, you will take the lives of your Xiong family to compensate, but can you afford to pay the entire Jin Kingdom?" Zheng Qizhi looked at Xiong Yi's dissatisfied demolition of the platform, this matter made Bao Hongde's heart stir, and he still stepped forward and said after hesitation, "The remarks of Chu Hou and General Zheng are nothing more than questioning my ability to go on the expedition, and Weichen is willing to make such a military order with the life of the Bao family, if he can't return to the dynasty with victory, let the king dispose of it!" ”

"How much is your life worth? Isn't it worth more than the bear family? Zheng Qizhi looked at Bao Hongde and said funny, Chu Hou has been waiting for this moment today, and when he heard Bao Hongde's words of the general's order, he stepped forward and said with a happy face, "General Zheng, don't forget, this Bao family's life is much more valuable than you and me." ”

Zheng Qi was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that what Chuhou Xiong Yi said was the life of the queen of praise, and after a moment of emotion, his face was moved, "I'm afraid that this doctor can't make the decision for the mother, right?" ”

Xiuxiu who heard this was suddenly startled, in the morning the king came out to the court, Bao Xi sent her to the front hall, if there is any news to return immediately, Bao Xi seems to have expected this farce to happen, Xiuxiu did not wait for these people to finish speaking, and hurriedly ran towards the East Palace, "Niangniang, Niangniang!" ”

Bao Xi was teaching Nian'er to read and write, and when she heard a hurried voice from outside the door, she immediately stood up and said to Nian'er, "You look at this booklet first, and I'll talk to Xiuxiu!" ”

"Yes, Queen Mother!" Nian'er said, blinking.

Bao Xi got up and walked outside the house, grabbed Xiuxiu's arm, made a silent gesture, pulled her away, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"Niangniang," Xiuxiu gasped for a long time and couldn't come back to her senses, "Just now in the front hall, there was a discussion in the front hall about whether to go to the north of Jin to support the fight against Beidi's division, Chu Hou, General Zheng and Doctor Bao were in dispute, Chu Hou was willing to make a military order, once he was defeated, he would ask the king to execute the lives of hundreds of people in the Xiong family, and General Zheng was also willing to take Zheng Guoguo's heavy oath." ”

"And then?" This matter is really not much different from what Bao Xi imagined, although this plan is already an imitation of the shocking plan a few years ago, but if it is a good plan, how can it be old or not? Xiuxiu took a few breaths, and was shocked, "Doctor Bao is willing to swear with the life of the Bao family, this battle will be won, if not, it will ......" Xiuxiu was here, biting his lower lip, his face turned blue.

"Brother is going to swear by me?" Bao Xi asked.

"I don't know," Xiuxiu shook her head, "Xiuxiu is in a hurry to come back and return to Niangniang, I don't know how the confrontation between them is now?" ”

"What about the king? How so? Bao Xi asked.

"The king hasn't opened his mouth yet," Xiuxiu said, "I'm afraid that the king won't agree, and now the king is willing to abolish the entire harem for Niangniang, if you ask Doctor Bao to bet on Niangniang's life, the king will definitely not agree, not to mention marrying her husband, where is the reason that the woman who marries out still belongs to her family?" What's more, this Bao family has never recognized Niangniang! Xiuxiu tried to comfort Bao Xi, this move must not work, and she didn't need to worry about her life, but Bao Xi shook her head in her heart, "You don't care about this matter, go take care of Nian'er, don't mention this matter to Nian'er." ”

"That'...... Where's the mother? Xiuxiu looked at Bao Xi and asked.

"Let's go to the front hall for a walk!" Bao Xi said, turned around and walked towards her dormitory, she was going to dress up and go to the front hall, everyone will definitely be in dispute over whether or not Bao Xi can take Bao Xi to make a military warrant, only Bao Xi can solve this dispute. Sure enough, at this moment, Ji Gongyan was facing up, squinted, sat up, coughed lightly twice, and the entire front hall was quiet for a moment, he looked at Chu Hou and asked in a gloomy tone, "Oh? What does Chu Hou mean, but do you want to praise the doctor to swear by his mother? ”

"The lower officials are just talking about things, if Doctor Bao can't take the mother to swear, how can he serve the public?" Chu Hou asked, this was supported by Jin Bo, and he also stepped forward and said, "Chu Hou is right, although the population of my Jin Kingdom is not large, and the national strength is not strong, but there are millions of people, if you let it go, the people of my Jin Kingdom will be miserable, I am afraid that it will be a disaster that is difficult to make up for in this district!" ”

"Since you are just taking the oath of Dr. Bao, I, Qi Country, am willing to take full responsibility for Dr. Bao's victory or defeat!" Qi Bo looked at Jin Bo and Chu Hou and said, word by word, sonorous and powerful! As soon as these words came out, the scene instantly quieted down, and a sly smile flashed on Chu Hou's face, this matter was an unexpected gain, if Qi Bo could be made to swear, then it would be easy to take Qi Guo into his pocket again, so Chu Hou's arrogance immediately weakened, "So to speak...... Then there is no need to argue, since Qi Bo has said this, please also ask Dr. Bao to make a military order! ”

Qi Bo's words messed up everyone's chessboard, Ji Gongyan's brows were tightly pressed together, Bao Hongde's trip must be more auspicious than lucky, originally he planned to use the power of Chu Hou and Zheng Qizhi to completely eradicate Bao Hongde and his people, in order to avenge his humiliating revenge on Bao Xi that day, but now things are becoming more and more complicated, if Qi is involved, then Ji Gongyu must protect Bao Hongde from death, and this ...... It's too hard.

"I am from the Qin State, why do I need the Qi State as a guarantee?" Bao Hongde looked at Qi Bo and said, "Even if you can't swear by my Bao family, I still have the support of the Qin State behind me, and I ask the prince of Qin to come forward to speak for me!" ”

Qi Bo moved his mouth, but he didn't think that Bao Hongde would not accept his feelings, which made Chu Hou and Zheng Qizhi sneer, "Qin Shizi is just a child, and he still has no decision-making ability, and now Qin is under the indirect jurisdiction of the king, Doctor Bao's words...... You don't want the king to be responsible for your defeat, do you? ”

"I haven't set out yet, the two of you look at the situation like this, and the sinister intentions are really obvious!" Bao Hongde said, knowing that the benefits of the tongue were useless at this moment, and the situation was stalemate for a while, Ji Gongyan sat on the top of the main hall and asked, "When you are arguing, do you still have the monarch of the widow in your eyes?" ”
