"General, there is a man from outside the camp, who said he has a way to defeat the enemy."

Li Ji glanced at the soldiers, then at the surprised people around him, and asked calmly, "Did the person here show his identity?"

"not at all."

"General, maybe this person is an assassin sent by the Wei army. The purpose is to offer advice under the pretext of actually coming here to assassinate." Xiong Kuohai said.

"What does Zhong Da think?" Li Ji asked Sima Yi after hearing the words.

With a faint smile on Sima Yi's face, he said in a low voice: "It is indeed possible for a desperate person to do this, but the general has a lot of talents under his command. Even if the opponent is really an assassin and came alone, can we Daqi still be afraid of him?" And shut the other party out? I think that no matter what, we should welcome this person in."

Li Ji had made up his mind a long time ago, seeing Sima Yi saying the same thing, he immediately gained some confidence, and immediately ordered his soldiers to welcome him into the tent.

Not long after, a Confucian scholar came to Li Ji through his tent.

"Zhu Yuanzhang, General of the East in Wei Guozhen, joined the army, and Zhu Sheng saw General Li Ji."

The person who came before him was none other than the messenger of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang who was willing to surrender to Qi.

"Zhu Yuanzhang?" Li Ji's face was full of doubts.He was silent in the battle at Hulao Pass every day, and he really didn't have the time to ask about the situation of the other two battles.

"General Qi, Zhu Yuanzhang, was originally a beggar around Luoyang. Because of his meritorious service in punishing bandits, he was reused by Emperor Cao Ang of Wei Dynasty. He was promoted to Captain of Changshui and Captain of Sili. Commander, assist Xiao Mahe in guarding Fengling Ferry." Xie An stepped forward and whispered in Li Ji's ear.

Li Ji nodded slightly and said: "A beggar born but able to get into such a situation shows that there is indeed no one available in Wei."

Zhu Sheng looked serious, stepped forward and bowed and said: "The foreign ministers often heard that Xiao He was just a county official by Han Gaozu's side, Han Xin was just a humble person who was humiliated by his crotch, Peng Yue, Yingbu They are all bandits and bandits, Chen Ping is a man who steals his sister-in-law, Cao Can is just a jailer, Fan Kui is just a dog butcher, Xia Houying, Zhou Bo and others can be described as mediocre. But why did Gaozu use them? Because Gaozu adhered to the principle of making the best use of people and things, the Great Han Dynasty was established for hundreds of years. Your Majesty was just a dandy in Xuchang City, and most of the people under his command were from poor families. , but can have the momentum of today, it can be seen that the emperor of Qi State is also a man of destiny, with the style of a great ancestor. Although my lord was born as a beggar, he has a great talent. Now the state of Wei is about to decline. The world often says that good birds choose wood Here, a good minister chooses the master to serve. My master is willing to rely on the emperor of Qi to make meritorious deeds."

Li Ji's eyes suddenly brightened, the country of Qi is full of talents, but it is rare to have such eloquent words, and what's more, there is nothing wrong with these remarks.

"So, it's Maogong's fault, sir, I apologize to your lord on my behalf." Li Ji said and bowed.

"Don't dare, dare not!" How dare Zhu Sheng be bowed by Li Ji, the top general who commanded more than [-] troops and dominated the Qi Kingdom, and hurried forward to help him.

"Since the master said that there is a way to defeat the enemy, what is the plan?" Yue Fei who was nearby asked.

"Your army stormed Hulao Pass, and there is an emergency in the pass. In order to save Hulao Pass, Wei Emperor Cao Ang issued an edict to ask my lord to support Hulao Pass from Fenglingdu. Now the army is on the way. My lord's intention, wait for the army to enter After Hulao Pass, the two armies should join forces inside and outside to plan this pass together."

Li Ji thought for a moment, and it is indeed a good thing to cooperate with the outside.However, Pei Yuanqing, the chief general of the Wei army, was not a pig or a dog. Judging from the previous fights, although this son had a hot temper, he had always acted meticulously.

It is precisely because of his presence that Wei Jun has been able to breathe so far.Now that Zhu Yuanzhang has arrived, although he doesn't know whether he can take charge of the city gate, it is not easy to gain command of the battle under Pei Yuanqing's nose.

"It's not easy for Pei Yuanqing to seize the city pass from him. Does your lord already have a plan?"

Zhu Sheng stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Since my lord has sent me here, I have already made plans. I say that the army will delay the time, and before the army arrives, please continue to use fatigue tactics. Completely drag down the Wei army in the pass. As long as he acts like this, even if Pei Yuanqing doesn't want to, he has no choice when he is exhausted."

Li Ji's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he was also thinking carefully.

If everything is as Zhu Sheng said, then Hulaoguan will surely fall into their hands soon.

"Since your lord Zhu Yuanzhang wants to defect to our country, what request do you have?"

Zhu Sheng was startled, and his face was quite serious. He took a step forward, bowed and said, "My lord only asks that the lord Qi will treat us kindly, and don't do anything like killing a donkey."

"Bold!" Slandering the emperor of Qi in public, how could the many generals present agree.

What's more, he directly pulled out his weapon and prepared to attack and kill him.

Li Ji waved his hand to signal them all to back down. He fixed his eyes on Zhu Sheng, and after about a moment, he smiled and said, "My lord is the king of benevolence and righteousness. When did he ever kill a donkey?"

Zhu Sheng's words have come to this point, so naturally he is not afraid to say more, Shili said: "Don't you know about Han Gong and Linchuan. Although my lord is not a high-ranking person, I know very well what Qi lord has done in the past. Today Since you plan to defect to Qi State, I hope Lord Qi will treat us kindly."

Li Ji was taken aback when he heard the words, then he laughed and said: "This is a rumor, sir, don't worry too much, I will recommend you to His Majesty."

"So, the foreign minister thanked the general on behalf of my lord. There are still many important matters right now. I don't want to delay here. I will leave first. I will listen to the teachings of the general after I break through the barrier in the future."

Li Ji didn't stop him either, and ordered his soldiers to take Zhu Sheng away.

After Zhu Sheng left, Li Ji looked at the people around him and asked, "Discuss this matter?"

"General, Hulao Pass is difficult and dangerous. If we attack by force, we will inevitably lose more soldiers. In the end, the general will think that this person is trustworthy."

"It's already sunset in Wei State. It's human nature for all the generals under his command to defect to our country. Breaking through this barrier is just around the corner. I hope the general will not hesitate and act quickly."

Both Huang Zhong and Dong Ping agreed.

"What does Pengju think?"

Yue Fei pondered the matter for a while and said: "The general thinks that we should ask His Majesty first about such important matters before making a decision. Even if we don't accept Zhu Yuanzhang and others right now, and the tactics of fatigue continue to be maintained, the Wei army in the city will have to do it sooner or later. In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, we still plan before moving.”

Both of what they said made sense, Li Ji thought it over and over again, and accepted Yue Fei's words, first reported these things to Cao Anmin, and asked Cao Anmin to guide him.

Chapter 815 The Queen Enters Middle Earth

On the bank of Yuzhou Mountain, dozens of warships flying the flag of Qi docked in darkness.

Cao Anmin took Wenwu soldiers who had been waiting here early in the morning to return in triumph.Seeing the ships approaching, he immediately ordered the soldiers to sound their horns and beat their drums to welcome them.

A group of soldiers came down from the warship, and the leader escorted a woman, a woman of noble status.I saw that this woman was about 32 or [-] years old, with a figure not inferior to that of a Han beauty, with a protruding front and back, fair skin, and exquisite facial features, she could be regarded as a beauty.It's just that there is a domineering look in her eyes that is rare among women, which should be formed by long-term pampering.

Cao Anmin took one more look at the woman in front of him, and then his eyes fell on Zhang Shun next to him.

"I see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!" Zhang Shun respectfully bowed beside Cao Anmin, his face full of piety.

Cao Anmin hurriedly helped Zhang Shun up, looked him up and down and nodded in satisfaction: "You have worked hard all the way, and tonight I will host a banquet in the palace to entertain all the soldiers who have returned from victory."

Zhang Shun knelt on one knee and said: "The last general escorted a total of 5 female family members back from the Japanese country. In addition to dying of illness along the way, there were 8000 people who arrived in Hong Kong. In addition, there are 30 gold and [-] silver. Wan Jin." After finishing speaking, a sealed document was handed to Cao Anmin.

Cao Anmin took the document, but did not open it to read it carefully, but directly handed it to Zhan Zhao who was next to him, nodded and said: "Very good, you have done a good job in the country of Wa. After the army breaks Luoyang, I will reward you for your meritorious service Minister."

Zhang Shun was overjoyed and kowtowed repeatedly.

Cao Anmin's gaze shifted from Zhang Shun to Himiko standing next to him.

"Who is this?"

"This is Himiko, Queen of the Wa Kingdom."

Cao Anmin nodded.

"See King Qi!" The Japanese queen slowly removed the black veil on her face, and she was able to speak fluent Chinese.

"Bold sinner, my majesty is the emperor, the son of heaven, how dare you call him king?" Before Cao Anmin could speak, Zhan Zhao who was standing next to him had drawn his sword out of its sheath and yelled angrily.

It's just that Zhan Zhao's words and deeds didn't frighten the Japanese queen, but his complexion changed slightly, and he bowed to Cao Anmin in a disrespectful way: "We in Dongying have always called the emperor of Zhongtu the king, and I hope His Majesty the Emperor Daqi will forgive me for the impoliteness." crime."

Cao Anmin nodded slightly, changed his majestic face, and said seriously: "I can forgive you once, but next time, if you make this mistake again, don't blame me for sending you to be a slave girl!"

slave girl!
