Chapter 42 Turning Han Wenxin to the Side



"I can go back," Han Wenxin said. "After I go back, will the Yan Kingdom withdraw its troops?"

"this……"

"Wenhu, does the Emperor of Yan mean more than just that I go back? He also wants me to take the entire Qi Kingdom back with me. Is that right?"

“This…” Jiang Wenhu hesitated and said, “His Majesty means that it would be best if you were willing to take Qi back with you, but if you cannot take Qi back, he would still be very happy to have you return alone.”

"Wenhu, is this the news that Princess Xiaoyue was poisoned to death?"

"The 'Empress' is dead?" Jiang Wenhu asked in surprise.

"With Princess Xiaoyue dead, I now hold absolute power in the Qi Kingdom. If I return to the Yan Kingdom at this time, it will be no different from me bringing the Qi Kingdom to the Yan Emperor."

"Old Han, what are your plans?"

"When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it."

"The Qi army is no match for my Yan army."

"We'll only know after we fight it."

"Luoyue Pass is proof enough."

"But Luoyue Pass is not the entirety of the Qi Kingdom."

"Old Han! This battle has been planned by Yan for a long time. Qi is bound to lose. Why do you have to play games with the lives of soldiers from both countries?"

Han Wenxin's gaze remained calm. "Yes, why gamble with the lives of soldiers from both countries?"

Jiang Wenhu took out a map from his pocket and spread it out in front of Han Wenxin.

Han Wenxin was deeply impressed when he saw the map.

The map of Qi in Jiang Wenhu's hands was extremely exquisite and detailed, far superior to any map made by Qi itself.

Jiang Wenhu presented the facts with a map, "Old Han, our light cavalry has reached Yinjing, and within two or three days all the cavalry of my western Yan army will arrive. Ten days later, the infantry will also arrive with heavy siege weapons. At that time, most of your Qi army's reinforcements will not be able to arrive in time."

"Yin Jing currently has 120,000 to 130,000 troops, and with the Weijing Army, the total is no more than 300,000. But my Western Yan Army alone has 500,000 troops. Yin Jing cannot hold out."

Han Wenxin looked at Jiang Wenhu, who had described the defenses of Yinjing City, without much surprise. He simply said, "The Yan army's siege weapons can't get through."

...

Half an hour later, the Jiang family father and son left the Prime Minister's residence.

Jiang Wuqi asked in confusion, "Father, did our army bring siege equipment? I didn't see those big guys."

Jiang Wenhu smiled. "I didn't bring it. Father was just lying to your Uncle Han. Our Emperor is truly a prophet! The Yan Kingdom is destined for greatness!"
