Chapter 485 0482 [Want to follow the example of Ban Dingyuan's past affairs]

Hearing the warning in Jiannige's tone, Ma Kuo's expression did not change, and he said calmly: "Whether it is a bluff or an exaggeration, with the wisdom of the king, you can tell at a glance."

Jiannige said with great interest: "Tell me and listen."

Ma Kuo said loudly: "The situation of the war in Yunzhou must have been known to your Majesty. His Majesty, our Majesty the Qi Kingdom, has personally conquered the territory of several states in just half a month. Datong Prefecture will not be able to hold on for long. Sooner or later, the Xijing Road will fall into the hands of our Qi Kingdom." .”

Hearing this, Jian Nige shook his head and laughed: "Wanyan Zonghan's 100,000-strong West Route Army is still there, and the East Route Army in Zhongjing can rush to help at any time. Qi's desire to capture Datong Prefecture is simply a dream."

Ma Kuancheng said: "If your Majesty thinks that Qi alone is not enough, then what about Xixia?"

Xixia?

Jiannige's smile faltered, and he was filled with surprise and uncertainty. His eyes were fixed on Ma Kuo, trying to get clues from the other person's face.

It's a pity that Ma Kuo looked at him calmly, his eyes full of confidence.

"What nonsense!"

Jiannige snorted coldly and refuted: "Xixia is a vassal state of Jin, how can it help Qi to cut down gold?"

Ma Kuo replied: "Of course it's because Liao Wang Dashi Linya made peace with him."

"Yelü Dashi is back?"

Jiannige exclaimed, unable to remain calm anymore.

Zazag on the side had a flash of panic in his eyes.

On the grassland, Yelu Dashi's prestige was extremely high, otherwise it would have been impossible for him to escape to Kedun City and immediately integrate all the surrounding tribes for his use.

Now that he has returned with his troops, other grassland tribes who have been oppressed by the Jin people will definitely come to surrender one after another.

By then, who knows whether Yelu Dashi will settle the score with them?

"Not bad!"

Ma Kuo nodded and chuckled: "The King of Liao now leads an army of 10,000 vanguards stationed 200 miles away."

Yelu Dashi's command was full of tens of thousands of people, but Ma expanded the vanguard army. When Jiannige heard it, it suddenly changed.

Jiannige and Zazag looked at each other and saw horror in each other's eyes.

Qi State actually united Yelu Dashi and Xixia!
Ma Kuo struck while the iron was hot and said sternly: "Xi Xia has already sent troops. According to the plan, the King of Liao should also lead his troops directly to Xijing Road, surround him on three sides, and kill Yan Zonghan in one go! The Jin people will definitely be defeated, and the king showed his goodwill to the Jin people and sent troops The King of Liao has always remembered the matter of assisting the Jin people in capturing Emperor Tianzuo. If the Jin people are defeated, they can return to the bitter cold land in the northeast. Where can the king's tribe go? That's why I said that a disaster is imminent for the king, but I still don’t know it.”

Jiannige's expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly smiled and waved his hand: "Come here, let's serve wine and meat!"

Not long after, someone brought a roasted whole lamb and kumiss into the tent.

Seeing this, Ma Kuan felt reassured, knowing that he had succeeded in bluffing the other party, and the attempt to take advantage of him should be successful.

Jiannige picked up the silver cup and said with a hearty smile: "The envoy from the State of Qi has come all the way. I would like to propose a toast to you."

"Drink together!"

Ma Kuo picked up the wine glass.

After a glass of wine, the originally tense atmosphere suddenly became much more harmonious.

Jing Nige tried to say: "I have admired Dashilinya for a long time, but I have never been able to see it, which is quite a pity. Now that Dashilinya is so close, why don't you come with the envoy?"

Ma Kuo replied: "The King of Liao has important matters to deal with, and he can't get away for the time being."

Important matter?

Yannige was shocked.

Could it be that he is waiting for the army to gather and attack him?
The smarter a person is, the more self-righteous they are and they like to make assumptions.

Ma Kuo had seen too many people like this, so he had already developed a set of ambiguous words.

"It's important, just leave it to next time."

Jiannige sighed slightly, pretending to be regretful.

After three rounds of drinking.

Jiannige finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked proactively: "But I don't know why the Qi envoy came here this time?"

Ma Kuo said unhurriedly: "I came to visit this time because I want to borrow a way from the king."

"Borrowing a way?"

Yannig's pupils shrank and he fell into deep thought.

Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Ma Kuo reminded: "Before I came, the King of Liao specifically told me that if the king can borrow the passage, the past affairs will be wiped out."

"..."

Jingnige remained silent, seeming to be thinking.

After a while, he said: "This matter is of great importance and needs to be discussed. I also ask the envoys of Qi to stay temporarily and reply tomorrow. Come, take the envoys of Qi to rest in the tent."

"I will retire first."

Ma Kuo stood up, bowed, and led Zhang Dutou and Lu Cheng out of the felt tent.

Watching him leave, Zazag said suspiciously: "Your Majesty, I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't explain it."

Jiannige frowned: "What this person says is half true and half false. You can't believe it at all, but I don't dare to bet."

Of course he knew that Ma Kuo could not believe everything he said. The reason for his hesitation was the strong combat power shown by Qi State in Yunzhou.

Jian Nige knows best how capable the Jin man is, not to mention that Wanyan Zonghan also has Wanyan Loushi, Yin Shuke and other powerful generals under his command.

Even so, he was still beaten to a pulp by Qi State. In just ten days, he captured the four states.

Weak countries have no diplomacy.

Ma Kuo's confidence came from the ferocity of the Qi army.

The Qi State alone was able to defeat the Jin army steadily. If Yelu Dashi and Xixia joined the battle again, the Jin State would definitely be defeated.

"Then... should I borrow it or not?"

Zazag felt that his brain was a little insufficient.

Just as Jiannige was about to speak, he saw the curtain of the felt tent being opened, and a guard hurried in and reported: "Your Majesty, the envoy from Datong Prefecture is here!" An envoy from Datong Prefecture?
Both of them were shocked.

Jiannige was the first to recover, and immediately ordered: "Bring him to see me."

Not long after, the Jin envoys arrived.

Compared to Ma Kuo, who was polite and courteous, the Jin envoy was much more arrogant. He strode into the felt tent with a steel knife on his waist, followed by more than a dozen guards.

A trace of displeasure flashed in Jiannige's eyes, but he said with a smile on his face: "I have seen the envoy. I wonder what the envoy is visiting late at night?"

The envoy from the Kingdom of Jin this time was Wanyan Zhabaodi, the younger brother of Wanyan Zonghan.

Wanyan Zhabaodi sat down with his golden sword and said in an arrogant tone: "The marshal ordered you to summon the Yi army under your command and go south to Datong Mansion to defend against the enemy."

The Yi army was an army established during the Liao Dynasty, which means the army of the northern grasslands.

It was formed by drawing the elites from various tribes on the grassland.

After the Jin Kingdom destroyed the Liao Dynasty, it retained the tradition of the Yi Army and required the leaders of each tribe to send their heirs into the Yi Army, which was equivalent to a hostage.

In this way, the grassland can be controlled more easily.

Currently, there are three Yi armies in the Kingdom of Jin, one of which is temporarily under the control of the Mogeshi tribe and has about 13,000 people.

Jian Nige felt a chill in his heart. He had reached the point of using the Yi army, which meant that the war in Yunzhou was urgent.

Thinking of this, he hesitated and said: "It is difficult to summon all the Yi troops in a hurry, and the envoys will have to wait for a few days."

Wanyan Zhabaodi was devouring the roasted whole lamb and said arrogantly: "I will only give you three days. If you exceed three days, you will be dealt with according to military law!"

"As ordered!"

Jiannige had no choice but to respond bravely.

Wanyan Zhabaodi was very satisfied with his attitude, eating meat and drinking heavily.

Jian Nige kept company on the side and asked insinuatingly: "May I ask the envoy, how is the war situation in Yunzhou?"

Wanyan Zhabaodi snorted: "Qi Gou fought undeclared and relied on surprise attacks to occupy a few cities. It won't be long before the marshal will drive Qi Gou back and take advantage of the situation to go south and give them an unforgettable experience." lesson."

Hearing this, Jiannige smiled and said: "The envoy is right. The Han people in the Central Plains are capricious. They must be conquered. Only when they are frightened will they become docile sheep."

After Yanzha Baodi had eaten and drank enough, Yannige respectfully sent him out of the felt tent and found several girls to warm the bed.

Zazag asked: "What should we do now?"

Jingnige thought about it and said, "I sent someone to tell the Qi envoys about the arrival of the envoys from Datong Prefecture and see how they react."

"it is good!"

Zazag turned around and went to make arrangements.

"and many more."

Jiannige stopped him and warned: "Do it more covertly, don't be too deliberate."

……

The residences of Ma Kuo and Xuan Jiajun were arranged to the east of the tribe.

In the tent, Ma Kuo was recalling the details of his conversation with Jiannige just now.

At this moment, a burst of whispers suddenly came from outside the tent.

Ma Kuo didn't pay attention at first, but as he listened, his expression changed.

"Why did someone from the Kingdom of Jin suddenly come?"

"I heard that I asked the king to help fight the war."

Wanyan Zonghan sent an envoy?
Ma Kuo was startled, then stood up and opened the curtain.

The two herdsmen who were waiting outside the tent to serve him immediately shut up and stopped talking.

All the way to Zhang Dutou's tent next door, Ma Kuo ordered: "Zhang Dutou, call all the soldiers."

"it is good!"

Seeing his serious expression, Zhang Dutou did not ask anything and immediately summoned the Xuanjia Army to the tent.

Looking around at the crowd, Ma Fan said in a low voice: "The Jin people have sent envoys!"

Ok?
Everyone's expressions changed.

Ma Kuo continued: "Jiannige is wavering and may not detain us and hand us over to the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin. By then, not only will our lives be in danger, but all our efforts in borrowing the passage will be in vain."

Zhang Dutou said in a firm tone: "Ma Shangshu, just give your orders, the brothers all trust you!"

"it is good!"

Ma Kuo felt his blood boiling, and he said with heroic spirit: "I want to follow Ban Dingyuan's old ways and strike first to kill the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin. Do you soldiers dare to fight with me?"

"Kill the golden dog!"

Zhang Dutou and others all roared, their eyes filled with murderous intent.

Soon, the fifty-eight Xuanjia Army officers and soldiers were ready.

Ma Kuo walked out of the tent first and said to one of the herdsmen: "I know that the Jin people have sent an envoy. Where does the Jin envoy live?"

"This……"

The herdsman was stunned and couldn't answer in a hurry, so he had to tell the truth: "Live... live in a felt tent facing the river in the south."

Ma Kuo asked again: "How many Jin envoys are there?"

"More than thirty."

As soon as the herdsman finished speaking, Ma Zhan waved his hand and ordered: "Tie him up!"

The next moment, the Xuanjia Army behind them swarmed up, tied up the two herdsmen, and stuffed strips of cloth into their mouths.

Looking at the frightened herdsmen, Ma Kuan whispered: "You two, please sleep in the tent for a while, and I will untie you later!"

After that, Ma Kuo drew out his steel sword, took the lead, and took the lead in killing the Jin envoy's felt tent!
