"The Marquis of Qi wants to attack Wu, what can I do?"

Hearing this, and looking at the letter in their hands, Wu Zixu, Fan Li and others couldn't help but change their colors.

Has the situation really deteriorated to this extent?
If it is the report of Heibingtai and Tian Qi's informant, there will be no falsehood.

And at this time, the only weakness of the Wu Kingdom is the capital Jinling...

After Wu Zixu pondered for a moment, he said to Qingji, "Your Majesty, the Guowei (Sun Wu) has returned to Jinling. With him in charge, and Wu Jun's standing army, we are not afraid of Qi's attack."

"The widow knows."

Qingji was still very calm.

After all, Qingji had discussed with Sun Wu before that the Qi people might go south to attack Wu, and had a countermeasure.

The troops stationed in Jinling City are actually not small.

Originally, the standing army in the capital city of Wu State had 5 people. Qingji went north to the Central Plains and recruited [-] soldiers. Prince Heng had led [-] soldiers and horses to Yingdu to suppress the old Chu.

Therefore, the current garrison strength of Jinling is about 2 horses.

In the case of being well prepared, relying on the strength of Jinling City, coupled with Sun Wu's ability to lead troops, the [-] standing army can completely guarantee that Jinling City will not fall.

Furthermore, there are a lot of soldiers and horses that can be recruited at any time in Wu's native land.

As long as Qingji is willing, within a month, he can pull up an army of 50 soldiers!

Of course, this is purely unnecessary.

"Your Majesty, do you want to send a letter to the crown prince in Yingdu, ordering him to lead his troops back to Jinling to defend the capital?"

Bob asked, frowning.

"No need."

Qing Ji said with a faint smile: "The soldiers and horses of Yingdu should not act rashly. Master Qi dares to come, and the widow will let him... go and never return!"

Originally, Qingji didn't intend to start a war with Qi State prematurely, but the people of Qi were overwhelmed and came to him on their own initiative, how could Qingji let the Qi army go?

"What I am more worried about now is the princes of the Six Jin Dynasties."

Qing Ji said slowly: "Han Buxin, Zhong Xingyin, Zhao Ji and the others are suspicious of each other, and they have not abandoned the past."

"Once they know that the capital of our country of Wu was attacked by the Qi army, and the battle to attack Jinyang City is unfavorable, they may have a different heart."

"..."

Qingji's worry was not without reason.

As the saying goes, you are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs.

Wu Jun's current logistics supplies, food and clothing, basically rely on the six countries of Zhao, Han, Wei, Fan, Zhi, and Bank of China. This is actually a somewhat dangerous thing.

Once the Six Jin Dynasty cut off the logistics supply to the Wu army and attacked them in groups, Qingji would inevitably fall into a passive position and had to withdraw from the Central Plains battlefield.

"My lord, since that's the case, why don't you withdraw your troops?"

Fan Li couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking bluntly, my Wu army is working hard on an expedition, and the situation is now very worrying."

"If the princes of the Six Jin Dynasties have a different heart and secretly instigate Zhao Yang to attack our Wu army together, I am afraid that although the Wu army is strong in combat, it will inevitably fall here. Please also pay attention to it, Your Majesty!"

Fan Li was one of the people who dared to offend Yan Zhizhi and remonstrate Qingji.

Fortunately, Qing Ji is tolerant and knows the truth that honest words are harmful to the ear and good for action, otherwise he would really alienate or depose Fan Li...

This time the battle of Jinyang put Wu's monarchs and ministers in a dilemma.

On the one hand, Qingji wanted to use this battle to consolidate Wu's hegemony in the Central Plains, weaken the princes of the Six Jin Dynasty by the way, and get rid of Zhao Yang's hegemony.

On the other hand, Qingji is also worried that the monarchs of Zhao, Han, Wei, Fan, Zhi, and Bank of China, who have their own ghosts, will take advantage of this opportunity to harm themselves...

Qingji couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

After all, should we withdraw our troops at this time?
Qingji has never been a person who would give up halfway.

However, the situation Qingji faced this time was really dangerous.

Among the princes of the Six Jin Dynasty, like Qing Ji, those who really wanted to conquer Jinyang City and kill Zhao Yang were Zhao Ji, Shi Jishe and Zhong Xingyin.

Zhibi had an ambiguous attitude, and was forced to submit to Wu's power.

The same is true for Han Buxin and Wei Lu.

Han, Zhao, and Wei were originally like-minded families, and Han Buxin and Wei Xuan had a close friendship with Zhao Yang.

For the rest of the princes of the Six Jin Dynasty, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not have the feeling of "cold lips and cold teeth". In order to ensure their own interests, they attacked the Wu army in groups.

"Let the widow think about it, think about it..."

Qingji waved his hand, and let the ministers withdraw from the main tent of the Chinese army.

Qingji immediately closed his eyes, thinking about Wu Jun's fate like a cultivator in meditation.

At this time, Qingji actually didn't care about Zhao Yang's life or death.

Qingji wanted to take advantage of the battle of Jinyang this time, so that the Six Jin vassal states, following their vital energy, would let more refugees enter Wu to settle down...

This can be described as one of Qingji's "sinister intentions".

The weapons and armor transported from Wu State, as well as military supplies, were actually paid by the princes of the Six Jin Dynasty.

All the food, fodder, vegetables, meat, winter clothes and other items of the coalition forces were also provided by the princes of the Six Jin Dynasty.

Wouldn't this be a huge expense?

It is conceivable that the overwhelmed Six Jin vassal states will inevitably impose additional taxes, which will severely oppress the Li Shu in the country.

This is actually of great benefit to Wu Guo.

……

Moon and night.

Goose feather heavy snow fell from the dome, boiling up.

The cold wind howled, and the biting chill made people shiver uncontrollably.

Soldiers of the state of Wu, who had difficulty adapting to this climate, were already sitting around the bonfire to keep warm.

While they were gossiping, chatting about homework, talking and laughing, they did not forget to grill mutton and fish.

The treatment of Wu Jun's soldiers is definitely the best among the armies of other countries.

Since they shed their blood for themselves and the country of Wu, Qingji would not treat them materially.

At this time, Qing Ji, who was still unable to make a decision, walked out of the tent of the Chinese army slowly, and saw the guard who was eating barbecue at a glance.

"Your Majesty."

"Don't worry about the widow, just keep eating."

"Thank you king."

Seeing Qingji with a kind expression on his face, the guards of Wu Kingdom sat down slowly and continued to eat the barbecue, but their eyes stayed on Qingji all the time.

Because, Qingji caught sight of the roast leg of lamb with one hand, his mouth was full of greasy food, and he still didn't forget the son Fan who was standing next to a dry and tall mulberry tree and humming.

What is this guy doing?

pee?
"Good boy!"

Qing Ji couldn't help but stepped forward, attacked from behind, kicked and knocked over Young Master Fan!

"Ah! Who!"

"Dare to sneak attack me, courting death?"

Gong Zifan fell like a dog eating shit, before he could pull up his pants, he was still holding a half-eaten roast leg of lamb in his hand.

When he fell down, he still had some ice and snow in his mouth, so he turned around angrily and glared at Qingji.

After seeing that it was his father, Wang Qingji, Gong Zifan couldn't help but his face collapsed, a little aggrieved.
