Due to the impact of Zhao Kuo's breakthrough, the Qin army on the Danshui side lost most of them and was no longer able to continue to defend this area. Bai Qi had to ask Sima Jin to mobilize 5,000 swordsmen and garrison Danshui for defense. Sima Jin couldn't refute his white face, and sent 5,000 soldiers who were not sick.

Bai Bo's death greatly alleviated Bai Qi's illness, but his spirit was severely damaged. The character of the former empty-eyed and self-respecting has changed, and it seems to be a little sentimental.

Seeing that Bai Qi began to personally take care of things, Wang Di left Bai Qi's military camp and returned to his camp at Gukou. The defense of the Danshui front line was completely deployed by Bai Qi himself. Bai Qi sent all the Nanjun soldiers of Danshui back to Gaodu, treated his injuries and recuperated, and personally instructed the swordsmen to garrison Danshui. 5,000 swordsmen and 5,000 Nanjun soldiers, their combat effectiveness is comparable to that of heaven and earth. However, it seems that the feng shui is not good, and after entering the small mountain bag, the five thousand swordsmen who were not sick also began to start a fever.

As soon as the matter was settled, King Qin's invitation came.

After deliberation, the generals of Changping believed that the situation on the front line was not easy, and it was not feasible for everyone to go to Yicheng. Then go in turn. Bai Qi entrusted the task of Danshui defense to Sima Jin, and the command of the whole army was temporarily handed over to Wang Yi, and he left Changping first to meet the king of Qin.

Bai Qi rode off after breakfast, first to Gaodu.

When he was promoted to the post of Hedong County Punctuary, he noticed that there was a movement of the Zhao army in Changping, and Bai Qi was stationed in Gaodu most of the time, but not in Anyi. After the Qin army arrived in Changping, Bai Qi went to the army several times to investigate, but they all went and returned immediately; The Qin army that went north from Nanjun was also stationed in Gaodu for training. Gao Duling built a house for Bai Qi in the city, but Bai Qi usually did not live in the city. He asked the soldiers to build another small city outside the city of Gaodu as their big tent, and the pro-battalion personnel could also live here.

Since being appointed as a general by the King of Qin and presiding over the Changping military, Bai Qi has not returned to his small city for two months. The officers and soldiers of the pro-battalion were also sent to the front, and only a few retainers and concubines from Bai Qi lived in the small town. When Bai Qi arrived, the gates were closed, and there was no sound inside. Bai Qi asked the guards to shout together, which alarmed the retainers in the city, went to the city to watch, and saw that it was Bai Qi, and hurriedly opened the city.

The 100 Guards had lost 14 killed and 30 wounded in the battle a few days earlier, 11 of whom were seriously wounded, and only 75 of them had returned with Bai Qi, including 19 with minor wounds. The retainers led the horses and guided Bai Qi into the city and into the palace, and the old mound Zai stepped forward to greet him. Bai Qi pointed to himself and the seventy-five people behind him: "May I take Tang Mu!" Tsukasa immediately went to the back house and told the concubines to boil water.

After Tsukazai came back, he looked around carefully again and asked, "Uncle Ziqi has not returned?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Bai Qi, who was looking around, trembled as if he had been struck by lightning. When Tsukasa saw it, he knew that the situation was not good, and immediately felt a tightness in his throat, so he hurriedly turned around to prevent Bai Qi from seeing his tears rolling out.

Bai Qi stepped forward, held Tsukazai, and said, "Bo'er, it's back!" From its ancestors in the ground! ”

Tsukasa couldn't hold back anymore and cried bitterly.

Some of the retainers were directing the guards to tie their horses and feed them, and some were carrying sundries to their homes, and when they heard the crying in the courtyard, they all stopped and looked at the guards around them. The guard knew why, and replied: "Bai Bo......" himself couldn't help choking up tears. Soon, everyone learned the news of Bai Bo's death.

After the soup was boiled, it was divided into four pots and placed in the four corners of the courtyard, and Bai Qi himself was served by the retainers and used a basin; The guards were three of them in a basin and scrubbed each other. First untie the hair grate and wash it, then pour water all over the body, rub the mud with pottery, and finally wipe it clean with a kudzu cloth. One batch is washed, and another batch is replaced. Seventy-five people had all washed up, and it was already time for dinner.

While the guards were bathing, Bai Qi entered the back house. The concubines were boiling water under the kitchen, and there was no one in the room. Bai Qi laid himself out and slept beautifully. After waking up, I felt refreshed, and the sickness contaminated by Changping seemed to be swept away. He came to the front hall, where the guards were still bathing. After bathing, the water is poured into an urn, which is picked out of the city by the guards to be emptied, and then brought back from the river. Feeding seventy-five people to bathe is not an easy task, a group of three requires twenty-five groups, and four groups at a time, it takes seven times. It took a day of non-stop burning for the four tripods to complete this difficult task. After bathing, everyone has a feeling of being reborn.

The porridge that served more than 80 people was also a test. It still has to use four big dings, plus the retainers and concubines are busy before and after, so that more than 80 servings of porridge with fruits, vegetables and salt are prepared. A large bowl of thick per person. There are not so many cases in Baiqi Mansion, and all the ingredients are placed in large bowls. Bai Qi sat in the courtyard with the guards and ate together. The vassals and concubines waited for them to finish eating, and then they ate the rest.

After arranging the guards' duty and rest, Bai Qi returned to the back house and sat with the retainers and concubines to recount their feelings after farewell. Bai Qi talked about the thrilling scenes on the battlefield, which caused a burst of sighs. Especially when it comes to Zhao Kuo's final blow, Bai Bo was killed. The retainers and concubines wept bitterly again. The family gathered until midnight before they dispersed to rest.

The next day, Bai Qi finished his clothes again, got on his horse and set off, and went straight to Yicheng. Out of the mountain pass, he met a military camp in front of him, Bai Qizheng felt strange, where is there a military camp here, and when he came forward to inquire, it was a swordsman stationed here. Bai Qi waited for the festival charm, and was guided by the swordsman to come to Yicheng. There was already a military envoy who reported to the King of Qin in Yicheng.

Due to the restraint of the swordsmen, although Bai Qi and his party rode horses, they could not move fast, so they could only follow the guidance of the swordsmen. When we arrived at Yicheng, it was already evening. It was early winter, it was getting dark very early, and now the road was basically pitch black. When Bai Qi and his entourage arrived at the edge of Yicheng, they saw the lights in front of them. The horses were approached, but the residents of Yicheng (mainly women) greeted them with torches on the side of the road. Childe Yiren held a broom and stood beside the road with a dozen or so confessors. Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, the stranger stepped forward to greet him. Seeing that Yiren was holding a big broom, he came over with a dozen people, and quickly dismounted and avoided the side of the road.

Yiren stepped forward and said, "Wang Jiao, Wu Anjun overcame Zhao Jun and won his captive head, and he is also a great meritorious." The widow embraced the broom, and the king's grandson replaced him, and the king drove in. ”

Bai Qi said: "The minister is in Changping, just waiting for the crime, and he doesn't dare to take credit." May I say goodbye! ”

The stranger said: "The king does not allow it, please get on the horse." ”

Bai Qi said: "May the king not increase the guilt of his ministers!" Please resign! ”

The stranger said: "The king does not allow it, please get on the horse." ”

Bai Qi got on the horse, and a confessor led him. The stranger said to the guards: "All the soldiers have worked hard in battle, please go along." He led the way with a broom, and one of the confessors led the white horse, and carried him to the city, while the rest of the confessors followed the white horse. The white guards naturally did not dare to get on their horses, and each led their horses and spears, lined up in five columns, and followed behind. Under the firelight, the group was majestic and majestic, like a moving hill.

After entering the city, the streets were quiet, and Bai Qi and his party went straight to the city government. The gate of the city government was once again wide open, and the lights in the courtyard were hung high. Bai Qi dismounted ten steps away from the city, and Yiren asked him to ride into the mansion, but Bai Qi stubbornly resigned. All the guards remained ten paces away, except for Inhumans and Shiroki entering through the wide open door. The guard captain was the prime minister and greeted him in front of the Xiao Wall. Yiren left, Wei Wei and Bai Qi went to the hall together, and King Qin was sitting in the hall.

The guard sat in the main seat, and Bai Qi sat in the guest seat. Wei Wei made three tributes to Bai Qi, and Bai Qi drank three glasses in a row. The sound of gold and stone sounded in the hall. During the entire banquet, the King of Qin did not say a word, and handed it all over to Wei Wei; Wei Wei also gave enough face and praised his merits repeatedly. In the hall, elegant music is played, and dancers dance, three songs in a row. Bai Qi thanked and satisfied. The king of Qin announced a boycott of the banquet, the female music dispersed, and the food table was withdrawn. King Qin summoned the two of them to sit down close to him and asked, "Wu Anjun's words are peaceful!" As he spoke, he spread out all the military newspapers sent by Changping in the past two months in front of the banquet and reviewed them one by one.

Seeing King Qin's attitude, Bai Qi didn't dare to be slow, starting from his own departure from Anyi, and talking about his departure from Changping two days ago. King Qin occasionally interjected and asked for some details, and Bai Qi also gave a detailed explanation. In the end, Bai Qi concluded: "The thief of Changping, the thief of self-defense, has nothing to worry about. Only if it is self-controlled, it is also difficult to take advantage of it. ”

King Qin said: "If you let it surrender to Qin, what? ”

Bai Qi said: "They are all Zhao people, and there are more than 400,000 of them, once they are surrendered, why should they be put aside?" ”

King Qin said: "The party is no longer inhabited, if it is guarded by ......"

Bai Qi said: "It's the Supreme Party." Shangdang, Han Di also, heard that Qin, eloped to Zhao, and there were those who fought in Changping. This battle is won, and with Zhao Zhong guarding the party, he will rebel, and it is the supreme party. ”

King Qin said: "Hedong, a rich land, is now withering. If you surrender 400,000 to the east of the river......"

Bai Qi said: "It's Wuhedong." Hedong, the old Wei capital also. Wei ceded the land to Qin, and the people all returned to Wei, so it has withered to this day. The king gave the lord as bait to avoid sin, and fortunately the Qin people from all over the world came to gather, only more than 100,000 households. Today, although Qin Wei was intimidated, he did not dare to make a big move, and he was really unconvinced. If Zhao dies 400,000, the Qin people will be incapable of controlling it. Fenshang will have a different heart, Taiyuan will help it secretly, change the heart, and there is no Hedong. ”

King Qin said: "If you go to the county and the north in the truth, what can you do?" ”

Bai Qi said: "If he leads the Hu people into the Kou, the border will be troublesome." ”

King Qin said: "If it is Ishbashu, what can it be?" ”

Bai Qi thought for a while and said: "Bashu Road is far and narrow, and it may be difficult for him to commit it." However, with 400,000 real, it is not easy. ”

King Qin said: "It's a good idea, and the prime minister's government will discuss it at the moment, and there must be a strategy." ”

Wei Wei said: "Since ancient times, there has been no one who has surrendered to him. The king's plan transcends the ancient and modern. ”

King Qin said: "The surrender of 400,000 soldiers is unusual." You think it out in detail. ”

Bai Qi said: "Oh! The minister heard that the Zhao people had little food and cannibalism, and if they got tens of thousands of stones, they would be able to calm their hearts; Again with a large army, in order to threaten its will. Grace and power are combined, and their deeds are done! ”
