Chapter 494: Sending Envoys to Qi Again
In the Fengtian Army camp.
Fei Lian and E Lai, the father and son, after hearing the opinions given by "Mr. Su".
They all seemed a little moved.
If the Qi Qin alliance can really be broken.
Then, either Qin would withdraw its troops or Qi would withdraw its troops.
By then, the crisis of Yan State will be resolved, and except for Xia State, Feng State's dominant position will remain unaffected.
Unless, a world-renowned war breaks out between Qin and Feng.
It’s just like the decisive battle between Qin and Yan this time.
"If we want Qi to withdraw its troops, the first thing we need to do is change the Qi Emperor's mind."
"We need to send an envoy to Qi, but who has the silver tongue?"
E Lai muttered.
Fei Lian smiled knowingly, took over the conversation, and continued:
"This person must be Mr. Su!"
Mr. Su laughed heartily and said, "Since the Marshal has entrusted me with this, I will do my best to fulfill it."
Afterwards, after Mr. Su left, Fei Lian began to arrange the diplomatic mission.
According to common sense, as a marshal, he is not qualified to send envoys.
Therefore, the envoy this time was only a military envoy.
It was no problem for the military envoy to meet Sun Wu, but it was extremely difficult to meet Ji Fa.
After everything was arranged, E Lai asked curiously:
"Master, who exactly is that Mr. Sun?"
Fei Lian kept the secret a secret at first.
"My son, do you know Guiguzi?"
E Lai frowned and thought for a moment before blurting out:
"Is it Mr. Guiguzi, the master of the School of Diplomacy who is said to be above all other schools of thought?"
"Rumor has it that Guiguzi is already over a hundred years old..."
"How old does Su Qin look?"
Fei Lian laughed and said, "Although this person is not Guiguzi, he has received Guiguzi's true teachings."
"His surname is Su and his given name is Qin. He is proficient in the art of diplomacy."
E Lai then asked, "Can Su Qin really break up the Qi-Qin alliance?"
Fei Lian shook his head uncertainly and said, "It wouldn't hurt to give it a try."
The Fengtian Army sent an envoy team to the State of Qi.
It is impossible that the Qin State did not know about this.
After all, with the three guards and the scouts in the army, nothing in the world could be hidden from the Qin State.
Cao Cao learned about this first.
He summoned all the generals and went to Ying Yuan's tent to discuss matters. He was the first to speak:
"Your Majesty, two days ago, after our army defeated the Fengtian army, Sun Wu, the commander-in-chief of Qi, wrote a secret letter and sent it to Qi that night."
"Our army has never been informed of the contents of the secret letter, but now, Feng State has suddenly sent an envoy to Qi. Is there any connection between the two?"
Ying Yuan was silent.
Guo Jia slowly said, "Whether they are connected or not is actually not important."
"As for the content of the secret letter, it's not important. The Qi army deliberately wanted to avoid our eyes and ears by sending that secret letter. I think it's related to our army."
"That makes sense. Our army must have used our latest weaponry to defeat the Flying Elephant Army, and Sun Wu is reporting this to the Lord of Qi."
"The most urgent task now is to find out what Fengtian Army Commander Fei Lian is thinking."
"Your Majesty, I have the temerity to speculate that the envoy sent by Fengguo may be intended to destroy the Qin-Qi alliance."
Hear this.
The generals looked solemn.
If we have the help of Qi, it will be inevitable to conquer Yan.
But if Qi withdraws its troops or becomes hostile to Qin, the pressure on Qin to destroy Yan will double.
Guo Jia's analysis was very logical, and he probably revealed Fengguo's conspiracy.
Now that we know what Fei Lian wants to do, this article will be easier to write.
Cao Cao immediately proposed: "Feng State wants to destroy our Qin-Qi alliance, so we should send envoys to stop Feng State's plot."
If Ying Yuan were to send an envoy, it would not be a military envoy, but a national envoy.
Although they are both messengers, the difference of one word makes the meaning different.
As for the secret letter, Sun Wu originally wanted to bypass the Qin army's eyes and ears, but he never expected.
The Qin army's intelligence capabilities are surprisingly strong.
After hearing what Cao Cao said.
Ying Yuan frowned slightly, still in doubt.
Paused.
He asked, "If we don't send an envoy, do you think Fei Lian's move will succeed?"
After a brief analysis, Guo Jia said, "Qi's ruler, Ji Fa, is no fool, although he may begin to fear our Qin."
"But we will definitely not create a rift with Qin at this critical juncture. After all, Qi, Yan, and Feng have always had a feud."
"Lord Qi is ambitious and will not let go of this golden opportunity to destroy Yan."
"At most, after destroying Yan, we will ally with Feng State and completely break off relations with Qin State."
That is to say.
Fei Lian's plan may not succeed.
This made Ying Yuan a little worried, and he thought to himself:
"If we don't send envoys, the Qin-Qi alliance will remain unbreakable..."
"Then how can we break the Qin-Qi alliance?"
"Imagine if I send an envoy and tell him that when he arrives in Qi and sees Ji Fa, he can be as rude and arrogant as he wants."
"Then, can we make Ji Fa feel resentful and sever ties with the Qin State?"
Think of this.
Ying Yuan's eyes lit up instantly, and then he set his gaze on Cao Cao and said:
"Since Fengguo has also sent an envoy, then I will naturally send one as well."
"However, I have one request: the envoys sent by our Great Qin must regard themselves as the Celestial Empire."
