The first poisonous scholar in Daxia, starting from the abdication of the prime minister

"This……"

Liu Sandao said, "Sir, if Xiling succeeds, I'm afraid that Nangong Shouyi of Yunzhou will have heard the news before General Li arrives. Sir, why don't you take the delegation away first to avoid danger!"

"no!"

Gu Jingzhi thought for a moment and said, "We're only doing this to urge Nangong Shouyi to fulfill the terms of the alliance. He didn't dare to touch us when he had food and grass. Now that he has no food and grass, do you think he will dare to go to war with Daxia?"

"But this is still too dangerous!"

Liu Sandao said with some worry: "What if Nangong Shouyi loses his mind..."

"Yes!"

Lin Chong and his brothers also nodded.

Gu Jingzhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Nangong Shouyi is a famous general in the world, so he is naturally not a fool. He can still tell the difference between making things difficult for the envoys and killing them!"

Before the alliance takes effect, it doesn't matter how the border armies of the two countries fight, but the delegation is not a border army. Even if Gu Jingzhi takes action, no matter how unhappy Nangong Shouyi is, he dare not move the delegation easily, otherwise the alliance between the two countries will be meaningless.

However, if the delegation leaves easily, it will inevitably arouse Nangong Shouyi's vigilance, and then it will be really dangerous.

The reason why Nangong Shouyi was not alert now was probably because he had never thought that a delegation led by a civil servant would dare to plot against his logistical supplies!

Moreover, the delegation was right under Yunzhou's nose, and he would never have thought that Gu Jingzhi would dare to play tricks on him.

"If there's nothing else, go down and prepare first. Let the soldiers rest well and set off at dawn sharp!"

……

After a few people left, An Ning came to Gu Jingzhi's tent.

"Sir, I just saw Captain Chang preparing to break camp. Is there something wrong?"

He looked outside the dark camp and wondered what could have happened if it couldn't be done during the day, but had to wait until late at night.

Gu Jingzhi didn't hide his thoughts. After he told An Ning his thoughts, An Ning objected directly: "Sir, this is absolutely not allowed! It's too risky!"

"Master An, I'm not discussing this with you. If we don't destroy Beili's last illusions, I'm afraid they won't easily hand over these five states!"

"Sir! Even if Beili is deliberately making things difficult for you, it will just take longer. If you act this way and anger Beili, I'm afraid this will be inappropriate!"

Now that the alliance between Daxia and Beili has reached a critical moment, An Ning really doesn't want to create any more trouble.

"The longer we delay, the more likely variables will appear. There's no need to talk about this matter anymore. Let's just do it this way!"

Gu Jingzhi said.

It's not that he is stubborn. The reason why Daxia wants to recover these northern states is because of their outstanding geographical location. If these lands can be recovered, the entire northern border of Daxia will no longer be controlled by Beili.

At the same time, the place where the war horses are produced is also known.

In addition, there are quite a few people in the northern states. If we can gain millions more of these people, Daxia’s national strength and people’s livelihood... will be taken to a higher level.

An Ning also knew this, but she always felt that Gu Jingzhi was too risky.

However, Gu Jingzhi was the chief envoy of the delegation, and all decision-making power was in his hands, so he could do nothing about it.

……

Mao Shi.

Gu Jingzhi appeared in the camp and saw that everyone was ready. He looked at Chang An and asked softly, "Have all the Beili prisoners been settled?"

"Don't worry, sir. We have left enough people to guard the place, so nothing will go wrong!"

"Well!"

Gu Jingzhi nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work these past few days, brothers. Please be careful when you go out. If anything unexpected happens, you can act accordingly!"

"Yes!"

Chang An nodded heavily.

Gu Jingzhi nodded, then looked at Lin Chong and Liu Sandao: "Seizing the gate is dangerous, remember to pay attention to safety!"

The two nodded, and Gu Jingzhi waved his hand: "Go! Once this is accomplished, the guard brothers will be the main contributors to this mission. I'll be waiting for your victory report at the mission!"

"..."

Watching the few people leading the team quietly leaving the camp, An Ning sighed softly and shook his head imperceptibly: "Sir, it's still too dangerous!"

Gu Jingzhi looked at him silently, then turned and walked towards the big tent.

……

The next day.

Gu Jingzhi was reading a book in the camp when An Ning suddenly came to his tent.

"Sir, Nangong Shouyi has sent someone over here, saying they want us to release the over a hundred people from Beili!"

"???"

Gu Jingzhi paused, he looked up at An Ning, thought for a moment, then closed the book and put it on the table.

"Go tell them, first, these people's identities are unknown. They can't be released until their identities are verified! Secondly, even if they are truly their people, there's no talk of releasing them until the city is handed over!"

"This……"

An Ning asked, "Sir, we are now on someone else's territory!"

"What are you afraid of? Do they dare to send troops to rob us?"

Gu Jingzhi picked up the book and flipped through it silently. As he read, he said, "Tell them that they can ask for people, but they can send troops to rob them! The prerequisite is that they can afford the consequences of destroying the alliance!"

"Sir, if we continue like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to discuss the alliance between the two countries!"

"Lord An! Do you think this is something Great Xia should be worried about? We are representing Great Xia on this diplomatic mission. If we can't even show a firm attitude, how can you expect others to take us seriously?"

"..."

An Ning bowed silently and left the tent.

Not long after.

An Ning returned to the tent.

Gu Jingzhi glanced at him and asked, "Did he leave?"

An Ning nodded, and Gu Jingzhi sneered: "I thought the soldiers trained by Nangong Shouyi really dared to attack my delegation camp!"

"..."

An Ning opened his mouth and said, "Sir, our camp is empty now. If Bei Li really attacks the camp..."

“Don’t worry, Nangong Shouyi wouldn’t dare to give such an order!”

Gu Jingzhi said dimly, "Even though he controls 300,000 Beili border troops, as long as he doesn't want to rebel against Beili, he won't dare to disobey the will of the Beili Emperor."

The city is in his hands, so he can delay the delivery time, but that doesn't mean he dares to confront the delegation!

However, An Ning was just a weak scholar after all, and had never experienced such a situation, so he couldn't help feeling a little panic.

Gu Jingzhi was too lazy to persuade him and just read the book silently.

……

Around dawn, Gu Jingzhi looked at the time, walked out of the tent again, and looked towards the north.

Xiling is not far from here. With the speed of the cavalry of the delegation, they should have reached the city of Xiling by now, right?

I don’t know whether the plan is going smoothly.

This was the first time I arranged a battle plan, but it wasn't a very thorough plan at all; it was just a calculated one.

The key point is that they are operating in the enemy's hinterland, which is a completely risky move.

Since the battle between Daxia and Beili more than ten years ago, there has been no major war on the entire border. As time goes by, the filter of Beili's easy invincibility is magnified more and more.

If Chang An and his men could achieve success, they would surely break the myth of Nangong Shouyi's invincibility.

By then, it will be much easier for Daxia to rebuild its border defenses.

Furthermore, he also wanted to give Lin Chong some credit for his military achievements this time.

“I hope everything goes well on this trip!”

Gu Jingzhi sighed silently.
