Chapter 7 Bai Qi's Death (Part 2)

Seeing Fan Ju so frankly, Bai Qi couldn't help laughing.

Seeing this, Fan Ju laughed.

The two of them picked up the wine bottle on the table and touched it lightly.

Bai Qi put down the wine bottle in his hand and said to Fan Ju: "Prime Minister, you have extraordinary strategies, Bai Qi admires you very much."

Fan Ju shook his head and said to Bai Qi: "Mr. Wu'an, this world is invincible and has the ability to defeat everyone. Who else can you do this? You, Wu'an, I admire you very much."

"Mr. Wu'an, I often think again. If you and I had no selfishness and were wholeheartedly considering Qin. This city of Handan might have been defeated by our Qin, and Zhao would have perished long ago!"

Bai Qi filled the two of them with wine and said to Fan Ju: "The Prime Minister is not just Zhao! If you hadn't slandered my king back then, it was not just Zhao, but Han and Wei, I, Bai Qi, would have taken down all of them."

Fan Ju also sighed:

"Mr. Wu'an, I don't know if you believe it? After the Battle of Changping, I dissuaded the king and asked you to lead your army back to the country. On the one hand, I have my selfish intentions; on the other hand, it is indeed considered that after the Battle of Changping, our Qin State lost more than half of its vitality and was also damaged."

"I asked the king to ask you to withdraw from Hangu Pass, which is really a worry. My Qin State was too exhausted like Qi State attacking Song back then. If it is provoked by other countries to take advantage of the situation, they will attack our Qin State."

"On the contrary, Qin State may turn from victory to defeat, and the gain is not worth the loss. If Zhao State can be stabilized, when the vitality of Qin State is restored, with you, Wu'an, you will definitely go down in one fell swoop. Of course, now I will not believe me when I say this to you."

Bai Qi also shook his head and said to Fan Ju: "Prime Minister, Bai Qi believes in you."

Fan Ju looked at Bai Qi and found that Bai Qi had a sincere look on his face.

Fan Ju raised the wine bottle in front of him and said to Bai Qi: "Thank you, Wu'anjun."

After saying that, I drank it all in one go.

He asked again: "Wu'anjun, Zhao's country is traitorous, and our army attacks Zhao again. If you lead the army to fight, I think Handan will be owned by our Qin country now."

"But what surprised me is, why did you reject my king repeatedly and unwilling to go to war? Do you know that you will cause death?"

Bai Qi also picked up the wine bottle in front of him and sipped it all in one gulp.

He said to Fan Ju: "Prime Minister, Bai Qi also tells you the truth. I have been fighting for Qin for decades. I am really tired. I am tired from fighting and killing people. I really don't want to go to war anymore! I wonder if the Prime Minister believes it?"

Fan Ju clasped his fists to Bai Qi and said, "Mr. Wu'an, I, Fan Ju, believe in you."

Seeing this, Bai Qi not only laughed at himself: "Thank you, Prime Minister, for believing in Bai Qi. Also, Bai Qi is not a fool. Among our Qin army, most of those who can conquer and fight are good at fighting, and they only follow Bai Qi's orders."

"Take you as a prime minister, you are so afraid of Bai Qi. Isn't my king afraid of Bai Qi? Needless to say, I also know that as a wise king, I will definitely be afraid of him!"

"Bai Qi thought about it and had to give up his military power completely and never lead his troops. He wanted to take a chance and avoid future disasters! Don't forget that the king is almost seventy years old!"

Fan Ju naturally understood what Bai Qi said this, that is, King Yingji of Qin is almost seventy years old and has not had a few years to live.

By then, King Yingji of Qin would definitely not allow people who have such a high prestige in the army before leaving for the Ying family.

Fan Ju fell silent, and knew and understood in his heart that King Yingji of Qin thought so and was preparing to do so.

The two sat together and fell silent.

After a while, Fan Ju asked Bai Qi softly:

"Mr. Wu'an, in your opinion, will I, Qin, still have a chance to unify the world in the future?"

Bai Qi shook his head and said, "Prime Minister, you must have an answer in your heart. Bai Qi is not talented, so I will tell you what I think! This time, our battle in Handan of Qin State lost 350,000 elite troops."

"This is a great defeat in our Qin State. In Bai Qi's opinion, our Qin State was not only seriously damaged after this battle, but also damaged its muscles and bones, and it cannot be recovered in the short term."

"Actually, this is not the most important thing. Although our Qin State was seriously injured, the four countries of Zhao, Wei, Han and Chu have been fighting for years, and the Qi State is also seriously injured.

"Our Qin State has a vast territory and a large population. Within an equal time, our Qin State will be able to take the lead in restoring national strength, and can still conquer the countries and unify the world."

Speaking of this, Bai Qi stood up and came to the map of the Central Plains countries on the side of the study, pointing to the Yan State Road in the north:

"The problem with the Prime Minister is Yan State in the north! I, Bai Qi, had never thought that Yan State would rise again before! But now I have to face this reality, especially the future crown prince of Yan State - Liaocheng Jun Ji Kang."

"This young master Kang of Yan State is really a monster. Since he arrived in Liao, he recruited talents and developed silently as a young man. His practice in Liao is like the previous Qin kings of all dynasties who developed the Buddha in the western border."

Fan Ju listened to Bai Qi's words and touched the beard under his jaw with his hands, making a contemplative look.

Bai Qi continued: "The Liao area is a remote place. If this young master Kang only develops in Liao area, our Qin State will be worry-free. But what this young master Kang did in Liao area finally made the Yan royal family decide to make him the crown prince."

"Once the entire Yan State is controlled by Prince Kang, it will be terrible. Yan State has a very good geographical location, entrenched in the north, and leaning against Liao in the east, and looking at the Central Plains, and can send troops into the Central Plains at any time. This battle in Handan, the Yan army's southward journey has proved this."

"In the Battle of Handan, this young master Kang sent general Rong Far to lead his army south, raid thousands of miles, occupied Shangdang, and cut off the way for our Handan army to retreat westward. It can be said to be a stroke of magic."

"I, Bai Qi, the two generals, Meng Ao and Sima Geng, have the ability to lead the army, and are definitely not inferior to famous generals in the world. That's it, the two generals and our 150,000 Qin army were actually defeated by the Yan army, which shows the elite of the Yan army."

"Through this battle, it can be proved that Yan State has also risen. Bai Qi dared to conclude that the future crown prince Kang of Yan State is definitely the same as his Taizu King Zhao of Yan, with great talent and strategy, knowing people and making good use of it."

"This person will definitely be the enemy of our Qin State in the future. No, now he will be the enemy of our Qin State. The most important thing is that this Liaochengjun has its own power in Yan State, and our Qin State cannot bind him through other people in Yan State."

"With his actions, he would never give me any chance to restore national strength. Some time ago, Bai Qi heard that King Yan Ji Ming had recruited him back to Jidu, and now he may have made him the crown prince."

Fan Ju also stood up, walked to Wu'an Jun Bai Qi, and turned his eyes to Yan State on the map.

After reading for a while, Fan Sui asked Bai Qi, "Mr. Wu'an, in your opinion, who is the first country that Yan went south to the south? Is it Zhao?"

Bai Qi pointed to Qi State on the map and said:

"As Bai Qi expected, the Yan State went south to the Central Plains, it would be easy to start and difficult to go. Yan State did not want to border with our Qin State immediately, and would not attack Zhao State first. Qin and Zhao State had a feud. Zhao State is currently a barrier to block our Qin State's southern state for Yan State."

"What's more, after the Battle of Changping and Handan, Zhao's national strength was extremely weak. Without more than ten years, we could not recover our vitality. For Yan, it could be captured at any time."

"If Bai Qi had expected it was not bad, after this Liaochengjun stabilized his position in Yan State, I, Qin State, will soon see that it will inevitably lead the army south to attack Qi State."

"Yan and Qi are a feud. In addition, Qi is close to our Qin State. Yan State attacks Qi State, and the countries next to him will inevitably stand by and watch and make a happy life. Judging from his actions in Liao, he will not delay the war with Qi State like Le Yi."

"In this way, Qi will fall into the hands of Yan for a short time. Prime Minister, you can think about it. If Yan occupied Qi, see that the country is weak, will he stop conquering?"

Bai Qi's words made Fan Ju sweat and sweat.

If Ji Kang was present, he would definitely say to Bai Qi: "Those who know me are Wu'an!"

After saying the above, Bai Qi looked at Fan Ju and said with a smile:

"Prime Minister, this is what I, Bai Qi, thinks about the world in the future."

Fan Ju looked at Bai Qi and asked hopefully: "Wuanjun, do you really not consider leading the army to the expedition?"

Bai Qi took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

After a moment, he opened his eyes and said to Fan Ju:

"Prime Minister, no need to advise Bai Qi anymore. Bai Qi had known your purpose long ago. You can read... Read my king's edict! Bai Qi will definitely obey the order."

Seeing that Bai Qi had already understood his purpose, Fan Sui slowly took out the Qin King's edict from his arms, but did not read it, and slowly put it on the table in front of him.

Conversation with Bai Qi, "Mr. Wu'an, the king just asked you to go to the secret, you don't have to do what he wants."

Bai Qi laughed again and said to Fan Ju with a self-deprecating voice: "What's next?"

The Qin prime minister Fan Ju was silent.

Bai Qi then said to Fan Ju:

"Prime Minister, Bai Qi will leave Xianyang immediately. You are a wise man, so you can do it yourself in the future... in the future! Bai Qi's words are all here."

Fan Ju faced Bai Qi, closed her hands and slowly bowed to the authenticity:

"Mr. Wu'an, thank you for your advice. Fan Ju... Fan Ju won't send it."

Bai Qi was sad and bowed slightly, accepting this great gift from the Qin prime minister Fan Ju.
