Chapter 239 I don't have any opinion
Min Wenshan learned about Zong Yanli's deeds from various sources and treated him more seriously.
Inside Pofu Pass, Min Wenshan was sitting with his generals, including Xue Liqing.
"I've heard of Zong Yanli a long time ago. I thought he was an excuse for the Northern Kingdom and the Lu Kingdom to make up for their defeat and was deliberately exaggerating." The generals sitting below Min Wenshan all had unhappy expressions on their faces. They were obviously ashamed of themselves for underestimating the enemy.
"General Xue fought with him. What did this man look like?" Another person turned his head and looked at Xue Liqing and asked.
"I didn't see it." Xue Liqing covered his chest. He had a lot of wounds on his body. He raised his eyes slightly and looked at everyone and said, "Zong Yanli's subordinates are all real talents. There is no exaggeration."
"He was wearing black armor, with a bronze mask on his face that only showed his eyes." Xue Liqing thought for a moment and said, "The long sword he used was very powerful, with a heavy blade and great strength. I have never encountered such a strong enemy in all my years in the army."
As everyone listened to Xue Liqing's words, their hearts sank more and they couldn't help but talk about it. They didn't expect that even Xue Liqing took it so seriously?
Min Wenshan saw that most people had listened, so he spoke up, "It would be fine if it was just Zong Yanli, but the generals under Zong Yanli are all outstanding people."
Min Wenshan sat up slightly straighter, looked at everyone with a slightly frown, and talked about Long Feiguang, Monk Qi and others.
These people are all famous people in Daqian. They have followed Zong Yanli for more than ten years and made great military achievements. Monk became famous in the battle with the Northern Kingdom.
"In addition, Zong Yanli has several very strategic advisers helping him." Min Wenshan paused and said, "Not only is their combat effectiveness amazing, but their strategic deployment is also extremely powerful. You can see the difference by watching the two armies fighting against each other."
"His mastery of military formations and tactics is truly..." a formidable opponent.
Min Wenshan didn't say the rest of the words. He was already feeling a headache just after facing Zong Yanli.
Xue Liqing seemed a little confused and said, "Didn't Zong Yanli lead his troops to attack the Northern Kingdom earlier? Why did he suddenly turn to attack Qi?"
Min Wenshan shook his head. How did he know that?
In any case, given the current situation, Qi State and Zong Yanli need to be extremely cautious when facing each other head-on.
Min Wenshan asked the generals what they thought about the upcoming battle. Everyone had a heated discussion on this. Some people supported that they would never sit still and wait for death. They said that Zong Yanli was brave and our Qi army was not bad either. Why couldn't we fight him?
The setback at Daqu Gorge was due to the enemy setting an ambush ahead. If it was a head-on enemy attack, Zong Yanli might not be able to defeat the enemy!
Some people also think that we should seek stability at the moment. The Northern Kingdom and the Lu Kingdom are probably sitting on the sidelines watching the fight between two tigers. If we fight with Zong Yanli and our army suffers heavy losses and other countries take advantage of the situation, it will be a loss.
It is better to defend Pofu Pass and not go out. No matter how powerful Zong Yanli is, he will not be able to attack!
Everyone had their own reasons in this debate. Min Wenshan just listened but did not say anything. After hearing everyone's opinions, he dismissed everyone and only kept Xue Liqing in the tent to talk.
"Foster father, are you still worried about Zong Yanli?" Xue Liqing looked up at Min Wenshan and said, "Foster father, I will fight him after I recover from my injury!"
"Haha, I know your heart, but you can't be rash about this matter." Min Wenshan obviously valued Xue Liqing very much. He smiled and waved at Xue Liqing. He wanted to use Xue Liqing's knife where it should be used.
"You have been with your father for many years. What do you think about today's battle situation?" Min Wenshan is not without sons, but none of his sons have become successful. They are really useless.
Min Wenshan wanted to train Xue Liqing, but...
Xue Liqing said bravely: "I don't have any opinions. I will do whatever my foster father tells me to do!"
Min Wenshan chuckled when he heard that, and stared at Xue Liqing with a look of disappointment in his eyes, but perhaps also a little relieved.
His adopted son had a lot of abilities but was empty-headed. That was why Min Wenshan could trust him wholeheartedly. Otherwise, he would have to worry that he might want to seize his military power. But when he saw that he had no strategy, he couldn't help but despise him.
Min Wenshan turned his eyes away and said, "Xue'er sent someone to deliver something, there is a knee pad made for you, go get it."
Xue Liqing suddenly showed a look of joy, and stood up and was about to leave, but he quickly held back and greeted Min Wenshan first, saying, "Then godfather, please get busy first. I'll go down first."
After seeing Min Wenshan nod, he hurried away. The soldier guarding Min Wenshan came forward and said, "General, did the young lady send anything?"
"Haha..." Min Wenshan sneered twice, holding his forehead with a slight headache and said, "Young lady still refuses to agree to this marriage?"
"Yes." The personal soldier also looked embarrassed, knowing full well the good intentions of his general.
Min Wenshan frowned, feeling more and more annoyed, and waved his hand and said, "Then keep her locked up. Tell me when she figures it out."
Yu Tian responded respectfully, and then asked, "What about General Xue..."
Min Wenshan lowered his eyes and said, "Now is the time to resist the foreign enemies. Li Qing will understand."
Yu Tian didn't dare to say anything more. If the general wanted Xue Liqing's loyalty, the identity of an adopted son was not enough. Fortunately, the general's daughter was extremely beautiful, as elegant and beautiful as a snow lotus on an iceberg.
Miss Xue'er was unwilling to marry Xue Liqing, a rough man who only knew how to use force. Ever since Min Wenshan brought up the matter, Min Xue'er had been resisting and has refused to give in until now.
Min Wenshan used his daughter to keep Xue Liqing hooked and let him follow him to attack the Northern Kingdom. If it weren't for Xue Liqing, how could Min Wenshan have carried out so smoothly?
But it is not a good idea to keep this marriage on hold. Xue Liqing can still listen to it now, but it is obvious that if you don’t have a beautiful woman, you will always have other thoughts.
Min Wenshan secretly asked someone to pretend to be Min Xueer, writing letters and sending gifts, in order to create the illusion of "love between man and woman", making Xue Liqing believe that they could return home and get married as soon as the war was won.
In this way, Xue Liqing treated Min Wenshan as if he were his own father. Not only was he loyal to him, but he was also eager to show himself.
"Min Wenshan's daughter?" In Zong Yanli's military tent, Pei Liang, Zhan Haoyue and others sat together, listening to Zong Yanli talking about Min Wenshan and Xue Liqing, the hypocritical fake father and son.
"Don't underestimate a woman's ability." Zong Yanli pondered for many days, raised his eyes slightly and looked at the few people and said: "Perhaps this is our plan to defeat the enemy."
"Since she is a girl, she must be living in the boudoir. Even if the general knows about this person, what can he do?" Pei Liang thought for a while and added: "Besides, she is still in the territory of Qi. I am afraid we can't even meet her."
"Maybe there will be a chance." Zong Yanli pondered for a moment, as if he was also thinking of a solution.
Pei Liang and Zhuang Chengbi looked at each other. Zhuang Chengbi thought for a moment and said, "General, if I go to Qi to find this person for you, is that possible?"
When Zhuang Chengbi finished speaking, Zong Yanli immediately looked up, his eyes slightly stunned, and he shook his head and said, "What are you talking about, Mr. Zhuang? How can you let yourself take risks in such a dangerous situation?"
"If I don't get involved myself, it would be difficult for me to think of any other solution." Zhuang Chengbi said with his head slightly lowered.
"You may not be able to do anything about this, but Princess Sai Ya may have a solution." Zong Yanli quickly changed his words and said, "Wrong, it's Queen Sai Ya now."
Zong Yanli did not hesitate at all. She directly asked someone to invite Duzhe, told Duzhe her thoughts, and then carefully chose the words to write her thoughts in a letter, asking Duzhe to deliver it to Queen Saiya.
When Duzhe led his troops to fight outside, all the state affairs of Wuhuan were handled by Saiya alone.
Therefore, when I received Zong Yanli's letter, I couldn't help feeling a little surprised.
"Qi State, Miss Min, Min Xueer." Sai Ya collected all the information about the Min family in a very short time, and paid special attention to the news about Min Xueer. She learned from Zong Yanli's letter that Min Wenshan wanted to marry her to his adopted son Xue Liqing.
"How does the queen plan to deal with this?" the maid standing next to Sayya asked in a low voice.
"I want to leave the royal court for a while." Sai Ya thought for a long time, and finally said softly: "You can pretend to be me and stay in the royal court for me."
