If there is a person who is the most flattering, it is not a glib person, not a flatterer, not a fraudster, not a speculator, but an out-and-out real person.

The gifts given by Qi Jun were all rare, and they already made the generals happy. What was rare was that he could tell the shortcomings of his "Zero Creation Full Moon" without hiding it at all, and he was completely sincere.

, this is the most valuable thing.

Qin Sanyou stood up with the wine glass in hand and raised it high to Qi Jun. "City Lord Qi is upright and aboveboard. He is a good man. Any gift or not is bullshit. Qin Sanyou only sees you as a person and has made you his friend!"

After saying that, he drank it all.

Qi Jun quickly stood up and drank.

Over there, Duoli Zhuying also stood up, holding a cup with both hands. "City Lord Qi has received so many generous gifts and sincerity, Zhuying is full of emotion. In front of a real person, he will not tell lies, and it is disrespectful to come and go. Listen to Bingwu

The situation in Tinglei is serious. How about Baiyue dispatching 10,000 elite troops to support Tinglei City and help resist the demon army?"

If Xia Nichuan, Tao Chen and other older people were present, they would definitely not ask Qi Jun to agree immediately. After all, it was a foreign army of 10,000 people. If his heart was right, he could help. If his heart was crooked, don't call him a demon army.

Before the call came, several groups of forces started fighting among themselves, which was very embarrassing.

Although elders have the experience of elders, sometimes they dare not let go because of the constraints of experience. At this point, the vigor of young people is extremely precious.

Without thinking, Qi Jun drank the wine first and bowed to the ground with the empty glass in his hands. "Qi Jun would like to thank Marshal Duoli for his support on behalf of the three million people in Western Xinjiang!"

Duoli Zhuying laughed loudly: "City Lord Qi, please don't be polite. Keeping the demon army in the north of the snow-capped mountains will be beneficial to you, me and Commander Qin. We are already a family, and we don't want to talk about two families. In addition,

I, the ten thousand people, only have marching rations with me, and when we get to Tinglei City, we have to be in charge of the food!"

"That's natural, don't worry, Marshal Dori!"

Seeing the two of them fighting fiercely, Qin Sanyou was anxious. Duoli Zhuying couldn't let Duoli Zhuying snatch the jackpot of the alliance, so he hurriedly filled up the wine.

"There are few soldiers in Yizhou, and we as a family don't want to compete with each other. Let's do this. I will dispatch another twenty "Jin Zun Generals" to rush to Tinglei City, plus the ten already on the road, there will be a total of thirty, as well as artillery.

Three hundred, and one thousand gunmen. We have few reinforcements, so we can't eat much from City Lord Qi. The key is the 'generals', they need to use good oil and feed them."

The artillery was even more coveted. Thirty cannons were sent to the top of the city. Instead of filling them with iron pellets, they filled them with shotgun shells. The thirty cannons were fired at once, which is tens of thousands of small shotshells, plus a thousand fire blunderbuss.

It's powerful, that is, against cold weapons, and when you encounter an enemy, you may be bombarded to what extent.

Qi Jun once again paid tribute to Qin Sanyou: "Thanks to Commander Qin for his kindness, Xijiang will never forget the help of these two commanders."

Zhuang Wuming was a little unhappy. Qin Sanyou waved his hand and saw thirty cannons. Building the cannons was his own business. A cannon with people and materials cost a lot. It would take two months to build thirty cannons. The key point

But now there is no reserve of tungsten sand and manganese sand in Yizhou. In other words, if we don’t import raw materials, we will lose one cannon and one less one.

He suddenly stood up with orange-red eyes and raised his fist towards Qi Jun: "The 'General' consumes a lot of materials. I wonder when City Lord Qi's tungsten sand will be in place?"

This rude move caught everyone at the banquet off guard. Qin Sanyou couldn't bear it anymore. Qi Jun's eyes were very good and he hurriedly replied with a smile: "I really forgot to mention it if Zhuang Guoshi didn't remind me. The first batch of original

The sand was supposed to be loaded onto the truck yesterday, totaling 20,000 kilograms, and it is expected to arrive in Yizhou in one and a half to two months via the main road."

The red color of Zhuang Wuming's eyes faded slightly and turned orange. "Don't go to Bizhou, come directly here, saving half a month's journey."

"Oh, is there a cannon-making workshop in the camp?" Qi Jun was curious.

"You don't have to ask about this!" Zhuang Wuming sat down rudely. This time, even Qi Jun's face was a little confused.

This time it was Bingwu's turn to smooth things over. He stood up and raised his glass to Qi Jun, saying, "Good brother, I'd like to give you a toast."

Everyone's attention was temporarily diverted by Bingwu. Qin Sanyou secretly bit his back molars. Zhuang Wuming saw this and raised the corners of his mouth slightly behind the mask, snorting coldly.

Bingwu drank a cup with Qi Jun: "After drinking this cup, we will not care about our relationship as brothers for the time being. I am asking you now as the special envoy of Dashun and Baiyue United. I, Baiyue and Shun, have reinforcements and artillery to rush to Tinglei.

I am assisting in the defense of the city, I wonder what City Lord Qi can do to help me in the current battle situation?"

Qi Jun was curious about the situation in Hesaka, so he asked: "Qi Jun came from afar, I wonder what the situation is like here now?"

Qin Sanyou took over the conversation: "Bounded by the confluence of Jiaojiang River and Jingjijiang River, our coalition camp is to the southwest, Heban City is to the southeast, Yuezhou Army is to the north, and at the Baiyue exit of Qizu Longshan, there is Huanhua City.

A nail. Our coalition forces have been unable to attack Heban for a long time. Firstly, because Xu Qudan in Heban is really a stubborn person. Secondly, there are two groups of Ning troops in the south and one in the north. As long as they can capture one force, the situation of the coalition forces will be great.

Everything will become much clearer. The difficulty is that we attack the south and then support from the north; we attack the north and support from the south; we attack them separately, but we are not sure of victory."

Qi Jun thought for a moment and said: "Actually, the key point is Heban City. The two Ning armies from the north and the south are deploying defenses around Heban City. Once Heban City falls, the two Ning armies can retreat without a fight."

"Wow! But it's easier said than done. City Lord Qi must have seen it just now. Hesaka West City has been blown to pieces by my 'generals'. When the northwest corner collapsed, the coalition forces had actually entered the city. As a result,

The defenders in the city were really stubborn and blocked the gap. It happened that the Yuezhou Army was halfway through the crossing. In desperation, the coalition forces missed this best opportunity!"

Qi Jun asked: "Then why don't you use 'General' to continue bombarding the city wall?"

Qin Sanyou smiled bitterly: "Firstly, the Heban city wall is so thick that it cannot be easily destroyed; secondly, there is a special group of 'leak-blocking troops' in the city. Wherever the city is damaged, it only takes one night to seal the gap; the most important thing is that we

Our weapons and projectiles are expensive to make, so we can’t just bomb them like they’re free. If we really play like that, we won’t need Yuezhou Huan Hua, and we’ll suck ourselves dry!”

Qi Jun nodded, thought for a long time, then suddenly stood up and raised his glass to the two commanders. "Qi Jun is not talented and has a clumsy plan to offer. I hope the two commanders will adopt it."

"What's the plan? Tell me quickly!"

--------

Qi Jun put on a full beard, Yun Feixue changed into men's clothes, Qi Qilang was still in his original clothes, and the three of them walked to the East Lake to catch the car.

With their skills, it is not difficult to break into Hesaka City at night, but since there is a Daning Pass that can be faked and authentic, wouldn't it be more convenient to enter the city through the city gate in a dignified manner.

They entered the city during the Mid-Autumn Festival, pulled a cart of dried meat to sell, crossed the river from Pan Town in the east of the city, and took a long circuit to enter the only open east gate of Hesaka.

The dried meat was quickly out of stock, and the Mid-Autumn Festival was over, but they were in no hurry to leave. In fact, they just wanted to stay in Heban because Qi Junxian's strategy was very simple and crude - to assassinate Xu Quwen, the defense leader of Heban soldiers and civilians.

.

As long as he can successfully sneak into Heban City, as long as he can trace Xu Quexuan's whereabouts, and as long as he has the right opportunity, whether it is Qi Jun's direct assassination or Yun Feixue's poisoning, Xu Quexuan will not be able to escape.

The key is that several "as long as" can be satisfied.

The first "as long as" was to sneak into the city, which was achieved with the help of careful arrangements on the periphery of the coalition forces and the help of experts who forged documents. Now their goal is the second "as long as" - to find out the whereabouts of Xu Quexuan.

If Xu Quwang only had two points and one line between the city defense and the inner palace, even if Qi Jun had three heads and six arms, he would still have to plan a perfect strategy. Who would have thought that just by asking, he would get the news that "Mr. Xu often goes to East Lake".

East Lake is the name of Wu'an Tingxue. People in Heban find these four words troublesome, but anyone who goes to Wu'an Tingxue for recreation calls it "Shangdong Lake". So where is Wu'an Tingxue? Qi Jun asked,

Along with Yun Feixue and Qi Qilang, the three of them frowned fiercely.

Of course, the one who screwed the most was definitely Qi Jun. As soon as his face appeared in Kirigishi Tingxue, Hesaka's officers and soldiers would be waiting for him soon. And this was only an external disadvantage. The most important thing was that

In his heart, he has not yet come out of his guilt for Lin Zhenfang, and there is no guarantee that his secret will not be exposed if he goes in.

Yun Feixue was a little better. She was just worried about whether Qi Jun and she should go. If Qi Qilang was asked to go, whether the route could be successfully explored and whether the plan could be implemented smoothly.

Only Qi Qilang was stupid and didn't understand why the two of them looked so miserable.

After much thought and discussion, Qi Jun finally decided that he must face what he should face and bear the responsibilities he should bear. Compared with the coalition's plan, he should put aside his guilt for the time being. Besides, this trip is not

It's not good for Wu'an Tingxue, it's just an attempt to be stubborn.

That's why the three of them dressed up like this.

After these days of management, Kirigishi Tingxue has become as prosperous as Yu Zhongxuan at the beginning. Not to mention anything else, just the fact that famous families have begun to send young women to it can already be seen that its influence in Hesaka

Influence.

Today, Wu'an Tingxue is divided into inner and outer courtyards. The outer courtyard has three restaurants, an inn, and a rouge shop. The inner courtyard is still used for watching performances.

Daitong followed Zhou Rou's rules and non-rich people were not allowed to enter the inner courtyard. However, from the upper floor of its three-story restaurant and inn, you can see the waterside pavilion from a distance. Although the sound is not clear, you can have a panoramic view of all the performances.

, so as soon as night falls, the second and third floors of the restaurant and inn facing the lake are often full, so ordinary people can also have a little feast.

Qi Jun and his party had no identity at all, so they could only throw money at them. Fortunately, the coalition forces were not stingy with gold. After one person smashed a gold bar, the maid led the three of them to a small pavilion in the east corner.

Half of this pavilion is filled with water and half is pressed with the bank. There are a dozen pavilions going deep into the water, and there are still three to five that are empty. Qi Qilang asked unhappily: "There are still spaces in front, why don't you lead us there?"

there?"

The maid who led the way covered her mouth and smiled: "Sir, the seats in front of me were not bought with money, but seats reserved for officials at all levels in Hesaka City. Because we are new guests, we were invited to the east side. When we become old,

Guests, the slave family will definitely lead the guests to the west."

Qi Qilang was curious: "What's so good about the west?"

The servant girl replied: "That side is closer to the incense maker. The color, sound, and fragrance are better over there."

Qi Jun suddenly asked: "Since the west is better, why are the seats reserved for officials in the east?"

The maid smiled: "Don't you understand this guest? The east side is quiet and there are few people around. First, it is suitable for private chats and discussions, and second, it is suitable for..."

She paused deliberately, arousing the curiosity of the two men. Yun Feixue had been a neighbor of Linzhenfang for many years, so she naturally knew the details. She said sourly: "Two are suitable for romance!"

He glanced at Qi Jun.
