Near Pingsha County, the Qin Army's new army camp.
At this time, all the generals gathered together and were having a heated discussion. They all expressed their dissatisfaction. The main content was that the headquarters had been stationed here for several months and had done nothing. The officers and men all wanted to make achievements, but they were unable to do anything. Not going to the battlefield.
There are not only general Tang Yue here, but also two of the eight generals, Guan Kui and Nie Xing, and other generals who are also experienced in the battlefield.
Nowadays, the national crisis is looming, and the battle on the front line is in full swing. It is reasonable for these generals to have this idea.
Guan Kui was the first to say: "Countries are attacking us, and thieves are invading. As a soldier, we should kill the enemy on the battlefield and make contributions! But we are here waiting all the time!"
Nie Xing followed: "That's right! Look at Goldman Sachs and Ning Zhan. Our colleagues on the front line are all fighting bloody battles with the enemy, but we are still watching the show from behind. We really can't bear it!"
Tang Yue said: "General Sun, as the commander-in-chief of our department, should ask Wang Ting for priority on the battlefield, instead of sitting here doing nothing all day long."
"The soldiers all want to fight the enemy. The general should tell the king about this request, so that the king can make certain strategic adjustments to our mission." Another partial general said.
To put it simply, they just want their headquarters to rush to the battlefield, which shows their fighting spirit.
The generals of the Qin army were not afraid of fighting, but instead asked for it. This was completely different from the Huan army that Sun Qi was in before. He finally understood why the Qin army was called tigers and wolves.
After looking around for a week, a wry smile appeared on his face: "Everyone, please be patient. Our troops are stationed here. It is the highest order of the king. I am not willing to fight."
As soon as he finished speaking, Guan Kui received the message: "So, my department has to appeal to the king and ask the royal court to change the current strategy, or in other words, to ask the king to switch my department with Su Yi's department."
"This... is probably unlikely." Sun Qi wondered.
"What's impossible about this..."
"If the general doesn't try, how will he know whether the king will agree..."
"As the commander-in-chief of our department, the general should give a memorial..."
"In our Qin army, military achievements are earned by fighting, not by looking at them!"
While everyone was arguing, a messenger hurried over.
"Report~~~~"
"General, the spirit envoy outside the camp wants to see you."
"What?" Sun Qi frowned, and all the generals in the tent became quiet.
The messenger said: "The envoy from Lingguo said that he has important matters and wants to see the general."
After receiving his confirmation again, Sun Qi fell silent, while Guan Kui said subconsciously: "When this spirit envoy comes to Qin, he must come for state affairs. He should ask to see the king. How come he came to us so well? It's really strange." ."
Just such a casual remark made Sun Qi's heart move.
Yes, I am just a general. When it comes to diplomacy and politics, it is impossible for the spirit envoy to contact me.
When a general is outside, what he fears most is being suspected by the monarch.
When he was Huan Shuai, Sun Qi encountered such situations many times, and in the end he was almost persecuted.
Although he didn't know the specific purpose of the spirit envoy coming here, he could guess something if he thought about it carefully.
So he said decisively: "If you don't see me, tell the envoy that I am sick."
"Ah?" The orderer was stunned for a moment, then clasped his fists and accepted the order: "No!"
After he left, a general couldn't help but said: "General Sun, since this envoy from the Ling Kingdom is here, why don't we meet him before we talk."
"The other party's trip is probably to tell a bunch of deceptive words to persuade our troops to surrender. Is it necessary to listen to his nonsense?" Sun Qi asked funnyly, just to avoid suspicion, because he knew in his heart that he had not been in Qin for a long time, even if There are many people in the court who are opposed to this new army general. If he meets the spirit envoy in private, he will undoubtedly be convinced.
After listening to what he said, all the generals nodded in agreement. Guan Kui said: "This war is fought by all the countries. Now they are sending envoys here. It is really ridiculous. I really think that our Qin country is easy to bully." Woolen cloth!"
the other side.
Outside the camp, the soldiers who sent the order came back and said directly to the Lingguo envoy: "Your Excellency, please come back. My general is sick and I don't have time to see you."
"What?" The spirit envoy almost laughed out of anger and said, "This envoy represents the king of my family. It is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries. There is a reason why An You should be turned away!"
"I don't care about this. Your Excellency, it's best to leave immediately. No one is allowed to approach this important military area." The messenger said lukewarmly.
"You!" The spirit envoy was extremely angry and flicked his sleeves: "Go back and tell your General Sun that I will wait until he recovers!"
Afterwards, the spirit envoy began to stay outside the military camp, and the news soon reached Sun Qi. When the latter heard the words, he immediately said:
"Driving them away on the grounds that they suspect the enemy is spying on their military intelligence!"
Under his orders, it didn't take long for more than a dozen Qin soldiers to hold halberds and take coercive measures against the spirit envoy.
While being driven away, the latter kept shouting: "You! Your Qin country is rude! It is really a barbaric country! How can you ignore the etiquette of diplomatic relations and beat the envoys of other countries!"
"Did we hit you? We just asked you to leave! Don't slander anyone!" A soldier captain had a gloomy face. Of course he was annoyed when a foreign country ridiculed his country.
"Discourteous! The Qin State is rude! The Qin Army is rude! A barbaric country!" The spirit envoy was still shouting.
"Damn you! I'll kill you!" After hearing this, a soldier couldn't bear it anymore. He picked up his halberd on the spot and tried to stab him.
The captain quickly held him down: "Don't be impulsive. He has envoys and honor guards. Killing him here will cause a diplomatic turmoil, which we cannot afford."
When the spirit envoy saw this, although he was startled, he still pointed his hands and said: "You, you want to do something to me!?"
"Get lost!" The soldier captain was also very angry and said viciously: "If you continue to pester me, General Sun has said that he will arrest you and imprison you on the grounds that the enemy country is spying on military intelligence! Send you back to the capital prison! Then, let Ling Ling The king will come and redeem you!”
These words did have a good effect. The spirit envoy couldn't help but swallowed. After the soldier captain finished speaking, he also drove him out of the military camp and then took the people away.
The spirit envoy had no choice but to see Sun Qi, and he could not stay here forever. He had no choice but to go to Qinzhou, so that on the surface, he could complete the trip to Qin.
By the time he entered Qinzhou, Xiao Yuan had already received the news.
He was not surprised that the envoy from Ling Kingdom went to Pingsha Camp first, but Lin Chu said: "Your Majesty, the envoy from Ling Kingdom met Sun Qi first. What does this mean? Could it be said that he, Sun Qi, can decide major events in our country? "
Xiao Yuan glanced at him and said with a smile: "You think so?"
"This..." Lin Chu swallowed and did not dare to answer easily.
Xiao Yuandao: "This just shows that this is a plan to alienate the Ling Kingdom."
