Chapter 449: Nan Gongji

  Chapter 449 Nangong Ji

   "Your Majesty, without food and grass, we are bound to lose. This is our only way out."

   "Yes, Your Majesty, you still have family members in the palace. You have also heard about what happened to the families of King Ming and King Ao before. Only in this way can we survive."

   "The minister seconded the proposal."

   "The minister seconded the proposal."

  …

   King Qi roared loudly: "King Li killed my youngest son. He and I have a mortal hatred. Do you want me to give up revenge!"

   "Your Majesty, is it worthwhile to involve all your family members in order to get revenge? You also know in your heart that without food, we will definitely lose."

   King Qi said: "If I don't put the drawbridge, they won't be able to enter the city either!"

"Your Majesty, there are still many high-ranking households in the city. They can open them. Also, have you forgotten the voice from the sky that night? Since they can go to the sky, they can definitely land in the city. You can come in as well."

   King Qi clenched his fist and was about to say something when he suddenly swallowed his original words and said, "I think what you said is right. If this continues, there will only be a dead end. It's better to find a way to fight."

   "Your Majesty, do you have another solution?"

   "Of course, I want to invite you into the urn, and when the time comes to close the door and beat the dogs, won't King Li's army be at my disposal?"

  Just open the gate, let King Li and the others come in, and then he will set up an ambush, come a few more times, isn't he afraid that he won't be able to kill all of King Li's people?

  One of them opened his mouth. This is not closing the door to beat the dog, but leading the wolf into the house.

  And if you open the door, others will definitely come in?

  Anyone with a discerning eye knows that as long as King Li doesn't let food in and the city is blocked, they will fail sooner or later.

  For King Li, this is a battle that must be won, how could he let his soldiers take risks?

  But the people present didn't say anything. If the city gate is really opened, it will be convenient for the people in the city to escape, and their family members can also take advantage of the chaos to escape.

   It's just that King Qi is not such a stupid person, why did he suddenly think of such a stupid way?

  The people in the hall glanced at King Qi, and saw that there was a trace of stupidity on his face, and they understood it.

   It is estimated that the spirit has been stimulated.

   King Qi felt that he had thought of an excellent solution. After the court was over, he asked people to prepare it.

   an hour later

   After listening to the report, King Li asked, "Does this King Qi want to surrender?"

The soldier said: "No, after the city gate was opened and the drawbridge was lowered, the general continued to observe for a while, but he didn't hang out the lowering flag, and no troops came over, but there were people blocking the gate and wanting to leave the city, but the guards were not allowed. "

  Li Wang thought for a while, frowned and said: "Could it be that they want to invite you into the urn?"

  Dugu Huanxu said: "It must be so."

  Li Wang said again: "He doesn't know that we can not go in and consume him directly? He has only 200,000 troops, and I have millions here. You don't need to think about it, he is not my opponent."

  Dugu Huanxu said: "It's probably because he's overwhelmed and came up with a bad idea."

"That's true." Li Wang thought for a moment, and said: "Order to go down and prepare for battle at all times. Also, let the explosives team get ready. As long as the soldiers come out of the city gate without lowering flags, and they are in groups, all of them will be prepared for battle." Explosives are straight away."

   "Also, let the archers be ready at all times. If someone rushes over scattered, shoot arrows immediately."

   "If there are people who escape, they will be arrested first, and they will be dealt with after a clear investigation."

   "If a soldier escapes disguised as a civilian, he will be arrested first."

"yes!"

  Dugu Huanxu asked: "Father, what do you mean, continue to consume them?"

King Li nodded: "That's right, it's already at this time. If you continue to consume King Qi, his army will be too hungry. We just wait. For this king, many soldiers have died in battle. This king no longer wants any soldiers to die in battle, and they have finally survived until now."

"yes."

  At this time, Nangong Mansion.

The Patriarch of Nangong, Nangong Ji, gathered everyone in the family, and said solemnly: "I just received the news that King Qi has opened the gate of the city, but he didn't hang out the lowering flag. He probably wants to invite you into the urn. King Li is very smart, so he probably won't take the initiative to attack. Injured the lives of soldiers."

   "King Qi will take the risk of opening the city gate, and it is estimated that it will only be a flashback, dying, and his time is coming."

   Nangong Jun said: "Father, the situation has changed, what do you mean?"

   Nangong Jidao: "How long can our food last?"

   "There is a lot of food, if we don't go out, we can wait until His Highness Li Wang comes in."

  Nan Gongji said: "Okay, then we will spend time with His Royal Highness Li Wang. If the situation is not right, we will hide in the second dark room."

"yes!"

   "However, His Royal Highness Li Wang belongs to the destiny, we should also offer a little sincerity."

   "Father, what do you mean?"

   "Send someone to investigate and see what water sources King Qi's army mainly uses..."

"yes."

  …

  next day

   King Li discussed the issue of food and grass with everyone.

King Li said: "Although our food and grass are still sufficient now, if we surround the capital, not only will King Qi's army have no food in the future, but the people in the city will also have no food. Even if we go in, the city will not be safe. .”

  The people present also felt that what he said was right, and their faces became serious at the same time.

  If the people in the city have no food, Li Wang will definitely ask the army to distribute the food.

   At that time, the army will have no food again.

  Dugu Huanxu said: "So, we need to collect food and grass now to prepare for entering the city."

  General Chai worried: "But there are quite a few people in the city. Although there are not as many people as the army, it is still a difficult task to prepare food for so many people."

Xiao Rui said: "That's right, although the prince controls other fiefdoms, bandits are rampant now, and the food transportation team is not all smooth sailing, five of the ten food transportation teams have been attacked by bandits, and the food must be taken away in a short time." It is indeed not easy to transport it smoothly.”

   They have exhausted their efforts to ensure that the military rations will continue.

General He also came over today, and said: "The capital city and other places around are all within the sphere of influence of the former King Qi. He has already collected food and grass from the people several times, and the people are already miserable. Most of the people, even if We bought it from them with money, but they were unwilling. King Qi used to forcefully confiscate their grain and grass, and when those people saw the soldiers passing by, they were as scared as a mouse seeing a cat."

  Xiao Rui said: "It means that if you want to transport grain and grass, you must transport it from a place that King Qi has not invaded before, that is, from the south, and you must also avoid a large number of bandits."
