Kai Fu Han

Chapter 242 Xiaozhi's Reason
"As for the [-] soldiers and horses of the puppet Qi you mentioned, let's not say whether the number is an exaggeration, but what kind of combat effectiveness can these newly recruited soldiers and horses have? They will definitely collapse at the first touch, and there is nothing to be afraid of."

"Aren't you Xinghan Alliance a new recruit? Counting the time, you are all new recruits." Gu Yi retorted.

"Since the establishment of our Xinghan League, we have experienced no less than ten wars, large and small, and we have all won with fewer enemies and more enemies. How can we compare with those people who came by force?" Liu Xinyuan said.

"Even if the Qi army is all new soldiers, the ants will kill the elephant. There are more than 5 people, and you only have three or four thousand. How can you win?" Gu Yi still did not believe that the Xinghan Alliance could win this war.

"How many soldiers with more than 5 people dare to fight can be less than 4000. As you just saw, with the equipment, weapons and warriors of our Xinghan League, even one against ten is too few. Besides, we are not just 5000 or 5000 people. We have an army of [-] people and a navy of [-] people who can go ashore at any time to fight. The difference in numbers between the enemy and us is not big. The most important thing is that all of us who participated in the war, from the generals to the soldiers. , all have a crucial magic weapon to win: faith!”

The more Liu Xinyuan said at the end, his expression became more determined, and his tone revealed endless appeal.

"Faith?" Gu Yi was puzzled.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Guo Chengyan began to take over the topic. He first took Gu Yi to sit down on the wooden pillar in the courtyard where he was resting, and then began to explain the origin of faith to Guo Chengyan, and carried out the second stage of persuasion: understanding it with reason.

By explaining the various administrations, policies and laws of the Xinghan League to Gu Yi, Gu Yi understood that now the officials and people in the Xinghan League are united and ready to overcome difficulties.Gu Yi just listened and didn't ask any questions.

"I have heard of what you are saying. Huang County is so close to Penglai, so I know more or less about it. There is also a full page of the law book of the Xinghan League in the study. How many poor people in Huang County have settled down and fled to Penglai. You Do you know why I didn't stop him?" Gu Yi looked forward and said in a heavy voice.

"Why?"

Guo Chengyan murmured in his heart: The plan really couldn't keep up with the changes, and it seemed that "Xiao Zhi Yi" could not proceed smoothly. Gu Yi seemed to know better than himself.

"Because I have seen terror, great terror. You Xinghan Alliance may not even know what a terrifying beast you have released. If I dare to stop those refugees from going to Penglai, I believe that within two or three days, they will Surround the courtyard, then take me out and kill Ji Qi." Gu Yi said.

"I also understand why you came here. You used to belong to our class. You should know what kind of forces the Xinghan League is about to face. Not only Jin Guo, but also all the officials and gentry of Zhao Guo. You moved For the benefit of all of them, the attacks on you will only be wave after wave, you can resist once, twice, ten times, but there must be eleven, twenty times, endless."

Guo Chengyan didn't expect that Gu Yi could see so much. After thinking about it for a while, he started to persuade according to his ideas.

"You are right. The Xinghan League has offended the officials and gentry all over the world, but it will win the hearts of the poor people all over the world. There are only as many officials and gentry as there are poor people. The Xinghan League will definitely be there. He becomes stronger and stronger every time he resists.”

"How can you guarantee that the Xinghan Alliance will not be wiped out in any resistance?" Gu Yi asked.

"Have you ever heard that the leader of the Xinghan League knows the magic of immortality?" Guo Chengyan asked.

"There are legends on the market, and they are said to be magical. Since ancient times, rebels have given themselves some divine titles. It's not surprising."

"But what if it's true? As you just saw, that warrior's strength is beyond the reach of ordinary people." Guo Chengyan said, and then started the last step directly.

Move with emotion! "You and I have been friends for many years, and we are classmates and classmates. You know who I am. I will not put my wealth and life on the side that is doomed to failure. And I will not drag you to death in order to survive. If I want to survive, , before the Xinghan League occupied Penglai, I would have surrendered directly like Wu Xinggong, but I didn't. I was the same as you at the time, I thought that the Xinghan League would definitely be destroyed, and surrendering to them would be a dead end, so it was better to preserve my reputation. , for a miracle.”

Guo Chengyan complained:
"But I didn't expect that I saw with my own eyes that this small force of a thousand people grew bigger and stronger. Until today, I see that no one in the world can stop the progress of the Xinghan Alliance. gone."

"You are my best friend. I can't watch you die with Puppet Qi."

Gu Yi was finally shaken after listening to Guo Chengyan's true feelings.

"But if I vote for the Xinghan League, Huang County will definitely become the front line of the war. I will definitely face the attack of the Jin-Qi coalition first, and then I will be dead."

Gu Yi thought that Guo Chengyan was here to persuade him to take Huang County to join the Xinghan League, thinking that he could still remain independent in the Xinghan League. After all, the word "alliance" originally meant a union of groups.

Guo Chengyan did not study this issue in detail. He solved the Jin-Qi coalition first, and the rest was a trivial matter.

"You misunderstood. We don't need you to surrender directly to us, and we don't need you to fight against anyone."

"Oh? What do you mean?" Gu Yi was confused.

"What I want you to do is very simple. It is completely tailor-made from your position as the magistrate of Huang County, Qi State." Guo Chengyan explained: "You only need to be active and strive to win the Jin-Qi coalition's attack on the Xinghan League." The logistics base is set up in Huang County. When the Jin-Qi Allied Forces and the Xinghan League's armies are fighting in Huangshui, the Xinghan League will send a partial division across the sea to attack Huangxian. When the time comes, you only need to pretend to be defeated and let the Xinghan League's troops The army can occupy Huang County, and you don't need to do anything else."

"It's that simple?"

"Yes, it's that simple. Even if you prepare for the worst and the Xinghan Alliance is defeated in the end, you will not bear the name of betrayal. At most, you are incompetent in commanding the war. But you are a civil servant after all, and it is normal for you not to understand war. , in the end you can still save your life." Guo Chengyan gave the most reassuring guarantee today.

At this time, Gu Yi finally had a smile on his face:

"Brother Guo really treats me well. Since I only need to do these two things, I will agree to you. I hope you can say a few nice words in front of the alliance leader."

"No problem, let's discuss the details again."

Seeing Gu Yi's betrayal, Liu Xinyuan also joined in the detailed discussion, and the discussion was not completed until it was almost dark.As a landlord, Gu Yi arranged a place for the three of them to stay after hosting a banquet. He was about to go back when he didn't expect Liu Xinyuan to follow him.

"This is?"
