Chapter 950 Save the Country From Danger and Support the Country From Death! The King of Yan Was Silent and His Defense Was Broken!
Li Ke asked in disbelief: "Apart from this, do you have any other requirements?"
The fool nodded and said, "Other than that, I have no other requirements!"
The fool said decisively, but Li Ke still couldn't believe what the fool said.
So much so that after Li Ke hesitated for a few breaths, he raised his hand and asked, "Excuse me for being presumptuous, I wonder if Brother Han has ever brought a handwritten letter from Lord Chang'an?"
The fool was slightly startled and couldn't help but look at Li Ke like a fool and said: "Li Shangqing, this time I am a spy who sneaked into the Yan army camp, not an envoy."
"sneak into!"
As if he was afraid that Li Ke wouldn't understand, the fool even repeated the word 'infiltrate'.
Have you ever seen a spy who sneaked into an enemy camp with a handwritten letter stamped with the seal of our army commander?
Isn’t that just looking for death?
Ordinary spies die when they die. I am a direct confidant of the Chang'an Army. Is there any need to risk death to deliver a message to you?
Moreover, what the fool conveyed was not a complicated and dangerous message to Li Ke. He was just asking Li Ke to be Yan's envoy. Is there any need to write another handwritten message?
Li Ke also realized how outrageous his question was, and hurriedly handed over his hands and said politely: "It's Mr. Li Shaozhi, my dear brother, please don't blame me! Don't blame me!"
"It's just that Mr. Chang'an's kindness to Mr. Li is really great!"
"For a moment, Li couldn't believe it!"
Li Ke sighed with a particularly complicated feeling in his heart: "Chang'an Junyan said that he asked Li to entrust the Qin State to send troops to help."
"Of course, Li is a villain who doesn't know right from wrong and doesn't know kindness."
"How can Lord Chang'an's move be an entrustment?"
"Chang'an Lord is clearly doing another great service for Li!"
From the perspective of Ying Chengyu and Da Qin, Li Ke's push for Yan to seek help from Qin was a beneficial move to curb the expansion of Dai, which could greatly reduce the difficulty of Da Qin's unification and fully serve Da Qin's interests.
But from Li Ke's point of view, Ying Chengyu's move undoubtedly gave Li Ke the opportunity to save the country of Yan from disaster, and it also promoted Li Ke to become a hero who protected the country from danger! ! !
In the past, he had the merit of negotiating with Qin and protecting Yan's territory. In the middle, he had the merit of leading the army to counterattack and gaining time for the army to rest and reorganize. In the latter part, he had the merit of protecting the country in times of crisis and saving the country.
Three great achievements were added to one person, Li Ke wanted to ask.
Who else would give up the position of Prime Minister! ! !
The fool's face didn't change much, and he just said in a deep voice: "The key point in it, I won't be able to tell clearly."
"I only know that this is the request of the head of the E family. Please ask Li Shangqing to help the head of the E family!"
"The general will sneak into the military camp and cannot carry heavy gold."
"The last general, Pao Ze, has placed five kilograms of gold in a dense forest eight miles southeast of Lingzhi Sai."
"When the job is done, I'll give you another ten pounds of gold!"
While he was talking, the fool took out a scroll of Kunyu map from his arms and spread it out on the desk. The routes, landmarks and directions were clearly marked on it. It was self-evident what was buried under the landmarks.
Li Ke's face changed slightly: "What are you doing, Lord Chang'an!"
"Mr. Chang'an showed kindness to Mr. Li, and Mr. Li felt uneasy because he could not repay him. How could Mr. Chang'an give him another gold?"
"My dear brother, please take out these belongings immediately and return them to Lord Chang'an!"
The stupid man pushed the Kun map forward, stood up and held his hands in his hands, saying: "The last general is just a messenger on behalf of the head of the family, and cannot make any decisions."
"Now the message from the head of the family has arrived. As the last general is in the Qin army, it is not convenient for him to stay here for a long time."
"I also ask Li Shangqing to send the last general out of Lingzhisai first and return to the camp to resume his orders."
When Li Ke saw this, he also stood up and said softly: "Li Mou respects and respects my honest brother for his loyalty!"
"Of course! It's cold now, my dear brother, you can drink a glass of water and wine to warm yourself up before setting off."
"Now the defense of the fortress and the city is all in Li's hands, there will be no accidents!"
Li Ke tried his best to serve good wine and food without being suspected by King Yan Xi.
But even though my lips were dry and cracked, I didn't eat a grain of corn or drink a sip of water.
Now faced with Li Ke's enthusiastic invitation, the fool still shook his head firmly and said: "No need!"
"The general still has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders!"
Seeing the fool like this, Li Ke could only sigh and cup his hands and said: "Young brother, you are a true righteous man!"
"This lord, my humble and wise brother!"
Li Ke drank a lot of the wine from the fool, then walked up to the fool and picked up the cup from the fool. He also drank the wine from the fool to show that he had no intention of poisoning the fool, and then greeted him warmly: "Come here!"
"Send the wise brother out of the camp!"
After personally arranging manpower, handing over his cronies, and opening the door to send the fool away from Lingzhi fortress, Li Ke paced back and forth in the tent.
After careful planning, Li Ke finally asked his soldiers to lift the tent curtain, and he was supported by his soldiers to float back to the city gate tower.
"Beloved?"
Seeing that the weak Li Ke was helped back by the soldiers, King Yan looked surprised, and then he was deeply moved. He quickly stepped forward and reproached with a distressed look on his face: "I have given the king's order, my dear." You need to sleep for half a day."
"Why did Aiqing only sleep for an hour before returning to the front line?"
"Is it possible that my beloved wants to resist the order?"
Li Ke forced out a smile with difficulty and said, "My lord, how dare you disobey the order?"
"It's just that I'm worried about our country, Yan State, and the king's safety. I really can't sleep soundly in my tent."
"As I tossed and turned, all I could think about was the war."
"Instead of wasting time on a soft couch, why not come to the front line again and lead the way for the king!"
King Yan held Li Ke's arms with both hands and shouted with increasing joy: "How could Aiqing do this?!"
"My beloved, you should have a good rest and recharge your batteries so that you can fight again!"
"I am still waiting for Aiqing to lead my great Yan warriors to repel the Dai army and return to the Yan Palace!"
Li Ke's smile was a bit bitter, and he looked at King Yan Xi with hazy eyes and asked: "Your Majesty, do you still have a chance to return to King Yan's palace?"
King Yan's heart skipped a beat, and the smile on his face slowly dissipated, replaced by a cold look, and dissatisfaction could not stop rising in his heart.
If Li Ke had not made great contributions in this battle and was quite popular with King Yan, King Yan would have kicked two of Li Ke's ribs in pieces based on what he said now!
Li Ke didn't pay attention to the change in King Yan's happy expression. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I am fully aware of the difficulty of the current war situation in Yan, and everything I think about is a strategy to defeat the enemy."
"However, I apologize for my incompetence. I have been tossing and turning for a long time but I can't think of a way to defeat the enemy. I can't even think of a way to hold on to the order without losing it!"
Seeing that the cold expression on King Yan's happy face could no longer be restrained, Li Ke did not dare to pave the way and immediately said: "Fortunately, thanks to King Hongfu, I finally came up with a plan in a flash of inspiration, which may be able to relieve me." Dayan's trouble!"
The dissatisfaction in King Yan's eyes was quickly replaced by expectation: "What good plan has Aiqing come up with?"
"Come quickly!"
Li Ke looked directly into Yan Wangxi's eyes and said word by word: "Ask for help from Qin!"
The expectation in King Yan's eyes faded away, he shook his head and said: "I know very well Aiqing's heart to protect the country with fists and fists."
"Of course, what Aiqing thinks is a bit simple."
"Although I was forced by King Dai, I eventually allied with Dai and Qi to send troops against Qin, which made King Qin hate me deeply, Yan."
"Ai Qing persuaded the Qin State to accept a truce with only two million stone grains and five hundred thousand pieces of cloth, which made everyone shocked and happy."
"How can my beloved Qin persuade Qin with a pair of words to put aside the hatred of Qin and Yan and send troops to help me, Yan, attack Dai!"
On the occasion of consecutive defeats and consecutive retreats, King Yan Xi did not think of asking Qin for help.
But in a second thought, Yan Wangxi gave up the idea.
Ever since Yan Dan sent Jing Ke to assassinate Ying Zheng, Qin and Yan had a deep hatred. How could Qin be willing to help Yan to fight against Dai!
However, Li Ke was not discouraged at all and said: "The hatred between Qin and Yan is strong, and the hatred between Qin Dynasty is also strong."
"Please forgive me for speaking frankly."
"Compared to a powerful Yan State, Qin State is even more unwilling to see a powerful Dai State!"
"Now the Yan Dynasty is going to war. If Yan is strong, it will replace the weak. If Yan is weak, it will be strong."
"Even if Qin is only considering Qin's own interests, it should still help me, Dayan!"
Li Ke's words made King Yan happy to be silent and break his guard!
King Yan wanted to refute Li Ke. The powerful Yan State and the powerful Dai State were the same threat to Qin!
But Yan Wangxi couldn't say these words no matter what.
Because King Yan knew that Li Ke was telling the truth!
The Yan State, which lacked virtuous ministers and generals, was indeed unable to pose a strong threat to the Qin State like Dai State.
King Yan showed a self-deprecating smile: "My great Yan's hope of preserving the country in a desperate situation is actually no threat to my great Yan to Qin?!"
Li Ke said solemnly: "The king's benevolence and righteousness are far better than those of the king."
"The abilities of all my colleagues are far superior to those of the ministers who represented the country."
"My country, Yan, is less of a threat to Qin, just because there is no general like Dai Wuanjun in my country, Yan."
"As long as the king respects the virtuous and corporal and recruits talents from all over the world, in just a few years, I, the Yan State, can let Qin know what the real threat is!"
King Yan felt a little more excited.
good!
Compared with Dai Guo, what I, Dayan, lack is just one Li Mu!
As long as I can recruit a general as brave as Li Mu, I, Dayan, can avenge our past humiliation!
But King Yan shook his head casually with a happy face and said: "I love you, there is no need to comfort me."
"I think what I said is true."
"In this case, Qin will have a reason to send troops to rescue our country, Dayan!"
"However, if you want to persuade Qin to send troops, it will still be difficult!"
Li Ke solemnly raised his hands and said: "My lord, please be my envoy and go to Qin for my great Yan."
"No reinforcements will be allowed, and I swear not to return the throne!"
King Yan was deeply moved.
But when he listened to the shouts of the two armies and looked at the Dai army fighting bravely outside the city from the corner of his eye, King Yan felt a little more murmuring in his heart.
Aiqing, are you sure that vowing not to return the court is a punishment for Aiqing?
However, King Yan could not test Li Ke's loyalty with words, nor could he give up this good strategy to preserve the country.
Finally, King Yan felt happy and said loudly: "Take the gold seal! Purple ribbon!"
Li Ke looked surprised and said in astonishment: "Your Majesty, this is what you are!!!"
King Yan happily took the gold seal and purple ribbon from the eunuch's hand, handed his hands to Li Ke, and said in a cordial and sincere voice: "The merits of loving you should be generously rewarded and promoted."
"Ai Qing will go to Qin to lobby, and it will be somewhat convenient for him to hold a high position."
"Today, I have specially promoted my beloved to be my Prime Minister of Yan State. I only hope that your beloved will help me!"
Although Li Ke had already expected it, he still showed gratitude on his face and said loudly: "I am so lucky to have such trust from the king!"
"My lord, thank you, Your Majesty!"
King Yanxi hurriedly helped Li Ke up and warned in a gentle voice: "The war is in full swing today, I really neglected your beloved!"
"When Aiqing returns from her mission, I will hold a big banquet to congratulate Aiqing!"
Li Ke nodded vigorously: "I will live up to my orders!"
