Chapter 1 Salary from the bottom of the pot

Of course, only Sima Yiqing, the Grand Tutor of Hu, could think of such a vicious plan.

It turned out that when the Hu army mobilized 100,000 troops to be conquered the Si State, they received information about the Si army building a pass at Cangkong Pass. The court immediately started a heated discussion. Some advocated attacking the Si army immediately before the Si army was built. Some were worried that the Panlong Pass would cost the Hu army 80,000. If there was another Cangkong Pass, they didn't know how many soldiers would be lost, so they suggested to stand up and wait and see. Everyone was arguing whether the Cangkong Pass was established when the Hu army arrived.

When everyone was unsure of their minds, King Hu asked Sima Yiqing for his opinion.

Sima Yiqing touched his beard and pondered: "I wasted a lot of time in the recruitment before. Even if the troops are currently rushing to the Sky Valley, Si Guo should have built it. Before Si Guo builds the pass, he must know the arrival time of our army. Therefore, if we want to build it, it will be built before our army arrives. Now I know why Qian Xiaoxing seized the two cities of Long Zhan and Juma. It turned out that he used the construction pass to resist."

When the fat King Hu heard this, he thought of the previous 80,000 elite troops attacking Panlong Pass and died, and said worriedly: "We have to fight the pass again? The loss of attacking the pass is too great, why don't we choose to confront the Si Jun? But if this is the case, I really can't swallow this tone."

Sima Yiqing replied: "Your Majesty, don't worry. I have a plan and will be able to simply break the Sky Pass."

"Talent Master, speak!" King Hu said excitedly.

"This plan is called "cutting the fire from the bottom of the pot". We only need to discuss with Lin Guo and ask them to send troops to attack from behind Cangqiong Pass. We will attack in front and will definitely be able to successfully capture Cangqiong Pass." Sima Yiqing said.

When King Hu shook his head when he heard this, he said, "Tai Shi, Lin Guo and I, Hu Guo, have many conflicts, and Lin Guo and Si Guo have a good relationship. This time, I will be difficult to cooperate with us, right?"

Sima Yiqing shook his head and said, "Emperor, as long as he induces it with benefits, it will not be a problem. We can promise Lin Kingdom that after attacking Cangqiong Pass, we will ced Yu Lin Kingdom in Jima City and give them three thousand taels of gold. I don't think Lin Kingdom will refuse such a good thing."

After hearing Sima Yiqing's plan, the ministers nodded one after another. For a country, being able to expand its territory is the highest goal, and there is also a gold gift. Lin Guo seemed to have no reason not to agree, and they all said: "The master's brilliant plan has indeed turned the world around."

After hearing this, King Hu did not hesitate anymore and slapped his chair and said, "Okay! Send an envoy to Lin State immediately. The Si State that he is determined to fight this time will be ruined and he will avenge his previous shame!"

A few days later, in the court of Lin State, Lin Wang, who was in his forties, was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on the dragon throne. The Dahu Kingdom and Dalin Kingdom were equally powerful. The two countries had been fighting back and forth for decades and had a victory or defeat. This time, Hu Kingdom sent an envoy to come, but he didn't know which one Hu Kingdom was performing. However, when the Hu Kingdom envoy and Lin King explained their purpose and asked the Hu army to fight to attack Cangqiong Pass, Lin King laughed and asked the envoy: "You Dahu Kingdom have strong soldiers and horses, and even a small Si State can't take it?"

The envoy of Hu State said embarrassedly: "King Lin, our country, Hu State, once sent troops to wipe out Si State, but he did not expect that the Si army was very cunning. Not only did our army lose, but he also lost Long Zhan and refused horses."

King Lin smiled secretly and said, "The 80,000 Hu army was killed by thousands of Si army. You Hu soldiers are made of tofu."

"This... I, Dahu soldiers, are all brave and good at fighting. It's not that my Hu army is incompetent, but that the Si army is too cunning." The envoy of Hu argued immediately.

King Lin ridiculed his feelings for a while and asked the officials: "My dear friends, Hu Guo begged me, Lin Guo to send troops. What do you think?"

A civil servant Lieli stood up and said, "Master, I think this matter can be done. Although our Lin Kingdom and Hu had some conflicts before, this time it is mutually beneficial. It is also beneficial for our Lin Kingdom to obtain a city and at the same time suppress the development of Si Kingdom."

Lin Yilong, who had been to Si State as a marriage envoy last time, stood up and said, "Emperor, our Lin State and Si State have always been friendly neighbors, and there is also a marriage contract. I think we cannot put down the wrongdoing and should reject Hu's request."

The civil servant said earlier: "Mr. Lin, when you mention the engagement, you will have to send troops. The State of Si has repeatedly delayed the engagement and despised the majesty of our State of Lin. I think this matter should be taught a lesson."

After hearing this, King Lin nodded. Si Guo delayed the engagement and did not take Lin Guo seriously. He was really not satisfied. So he said to the envoy of Hu, "Okay, then I, Lin Guo, will teach Si Guo a lesson for Hu, for the sake of Hu's request. My dear friends think it's better to send how many soldiers to cooperate this time?"

After hearing this, Lin Yilong had no choice but to sigh and go back. A man named Ma Hua stood up from the military officer Lieli, who was the General Ma who was responsible for safety last time, and he walked into the middle and said, "King Lin, we are just a city this time. It is not advisable to send too many troops, otherwise the gain will not be worth the loss. I think it is best to send 10,000 cavalry to harass the Siguo Cangqiong Pass and let Hu send troops to attack by himself."

"Okay, General Ma, then you will lead 10,000 cavalrymen this time and choose a day to set off." King Lin ordered.

MCA replied: "Yes, I will fulfill my mission!"

However, Qian Xiaoxing held white silk in his hand and looked at the words behind: Hu Jun learned that the Si army had built the Cangkong Valley Pass, and now he had sent someone to Lin Guo to give the gift of Juma City and 3,000 taels of gold. He asked Lin Guo's troops to launch Huju Pass and attack the Cangkong Valley Pass forward and backward. Please prepare as soon as possible!

The four words of front and back attack are like four daggers, which are nailed to Qian Xiaoxing's heart. If Lin Guo sent troops from Huju Pass, there would be no place to guard the whole way and could drive straight to the rear of Cangqiong Pass. The terrain of Cangqiong Pass would not be able to build two city walls. Even if it could be built, the front and back attack would be trapped in Cangqiong Pass, and if the food channels and support were cut off, it would be impossible to stick to it.

"Seventh brother, what should I do?" Lu Shengzhong asked with a dark face.

Qian Xiaoxing sighed. Huju Pass has always been a concern for launching a direct attack on Si State. He originally thought that Hu State might use the means to attack, but now Lin State is going to be a kick. He is really afraid of anything. Qian Xiaoxing shook his head helplessly and said, "There are too few troops and cannot resist the front and back attacks of the two countries. It seems that the worst plan is to retreat to Panlong Pass."

"Retreat to Panlong Pass?" After hearing Qian Xiaoxing's words, Lu Shengzhong couldn't accept it and said heartbrokenly: "Seventh brother, is it necessary to hand over the Cangkong Pass that had just been built with great effort? Will Long Zhan, who had just recovered, have to lose his protection if he refuses horses?"
