While the two were talking, Mober knocked on the door and said, "Master, the wine and food are ready."

"I understand." Sima Yiqing said to the outside of the door, turned to Qian Xiaoxing and said, "Qian Xiaoxing, our father-in-law and son-in-law rarely meets. Let's chat while drinking."

"Okay, OK," Qian Xiaoxing nodded quickly.

Everyone moved to the next room. The room was brightly lit and the table was full of wine and food. After Sima Yiqing brought Qian Xiaoxing to his seat, he said to him: "Qian Xiaoxing, you are still a little capable. I think my great Hu Kingdom was actually destroyed by the small Si Kingdom. It is really not easy. I would like to wish you a cup."

"Don't dare, don't dare," Qian Xiaoxing modestly picked up the wine glass and clinked Sima Yiqing one by one.

The wine is good wine, and the dishes are delicious. After drinking a few cups, they finally moved to the main business. Sima Yiqing said: "This time Bai Xiao killed King Shi, and the relationship between the three kingdoms has changed. Now the Shiguo Linguo Alliance is very unfavorable to you, but the alliance between them is not unbreakable. If King Lin's position is not firm, he will go back on his word if he gives some benefits. Therefore, there is still a solution to the dilemma of Siguo."

Qian Xiaoxing nodded secretly after hearing this. Although he had thought of many ways, he never expected that Sima Yiqing would still be more considerate of things and have a greater view of the overall situation. He said, "My father-in-law is very experienced, so I can't compare to him. So how should our country do it?"

"Let's take a step back and the sky is wide open!" Sima Yiqing raised his glass to drink. Qian Xiaoxing nodded and said, "What my father-in-law said is, but I can't retreat at the moment. Shandu City has been surrounded by the Shi Guolin Guo Alliance Army."

"If you are sure to withdraw from Shandu, you can start with King Lin. After all, he is also your father-in-law." Sima Yiqing said confidently.

Qian Xiaoxing disagreed with this statement and replied: "If King Lin recognized me as his son-in-law, how could he surround me with Shi Jun?"

"Haha, you are right. King Lin is forgetting his righteousness when he sees profit. Then we will use profit to tempt him. How could he not submit to him?" Sima Yiqing said with a smile.

Qian Xiaoxing asked in confusion: "Then what advantage do we use to lure us?"

"Cece territory and seek peace! Shandu, and the territory occupied by Hu State by Si State, he would not refuse to accept such a large gift. Now Si State has only 100,000 troops, and it is still unsatisfactory to defend such a large territory. It is better to retreat to the south of Lanjiang River first, go back to train troops, and take down Lin State in one go." Sima Yiqing said confidently. In Sima Yiqing's eyes, Qian Xiaoxing is already his son-in-law, and can be said to be his own family. If Qian Xiaoxing can unify China, then his face will be glorious. Therefore, the hope now is placed on Qian Xiaoxing and will do his best to help Qian Xiaoxing complete the great cause of unification.

Qian Xiaoxing asked: "My father-in-law means using the territory of Shandu and Hu in exchange for our army's safe retreat."

"Yes, since we don't have the ability to defend, we might as well give up. Moreover, we can use Shandu to provoke conflicts between Shiguo and Linguo, disagree with their relationship, and lay the foundation for our army's future counterattack." Sima Yiqing replied.

Sima Chuchu poured wine and picked up food for the two of them. Seeing the two of them having a happy conversation, Qian Xiaoxing thought for a while and asked: "We exchange our territory for the safe retreat of our army. If King Lin does not agree, what should we do?"

"It's easy. If King Lin is so ambitious and wants to eat our army, then our army will bite him to death. Our army can take the initiative to attack and fight against Lin's army a few battles. When King Lin saw that our army only fought with them, and if both sides were defeated in the end, he would definitely let Shi army reap the benefits of the fisherman. In this way, compared with the real profit, King Lin naturally would not want to go to war with us." Sima Yiqing said slowly.

After Sima Yiqing's analysis, Qian Xiaoxing felt enlightened and resolved the dilemma that could not be solved in his heart one by one. He said sincerely: "My father-in-law has unique vision and the analysis is correct. I also want to learn more from my father-in-law."

Sima Yiqing said happily: "I have no son. As the saying goes, a son-in-law is worth half a son. Your brilliant plan is not inferior to me, but my experience is richer than you. I can also check you in the future. If you don't dislike me, I can also teach you my life experience."

Sima Chuchu smiled and said, "Father, you are so partial. I am your daughter, so I won't teach me."

Sima Yiqing laughed and said, "Learning these things requires talent. Chuchu, although you are smart, you are still almost there. Besides, I teach your husband, what are you jealous of?

Sima Chuchu smiled slightly and said, "Then my father wants to help Qian Xiaoxing defeat Lin Guo and Shi Guo. This time they joined forces, Si Guo was forced to retreat, which was embarrassing. He must find him back in the future, and they were beaten to find their teeth."

"That's natural, you need to say it." Sima Yiqing replied immediately.

Qian Xiaoxing was overjoyed when he saw that Sima Yiqing was willing to teach him, but also helped Siguo defeat Lin Guo and Shiguo. He asked, "Just just now, my father-in-law said that he could use Shandu to provoke the conflict between Shiguo and Lin Guo. What method did he use?"

Sima Yiqing thought for a while and said, "This is simple, we just need to do this...so..."

"What a plan," Qian Xiaoxing nodded repeatedly, raised his glass and said, "Then we can unify China as soon as possible!"

"Do it!" The three of them raised their glasses and wished them happily.

The next day, Qian Xiaoxing wrote a long letter and asked someone to hand it over to King Lin. The general meaning of the letter was to talk about the relationship between the father-in-law and son-in-law, and let Lin Wangnian not fight each other with his family. In order for the two families to live in harmony, Si State was willing to cede land and seek peace, and give up the land occupied north of Shandu and Lanjiang. At the same time, Qian Xiaoxing also warned King Lin that if he was unwilling to let them go, the result would be a death-death battle and Lin's army would not be able to take advantage.

King Lin sat in the central army camp. After reading the letter, he laughed, stood up excitedly and said to his entourage: "Qian Xiaoxing, Qian Xiaoxing, I thought you were so capable. You still have to cede the land and seek peace."

The follower nodded and said, "The emperor's clever plan is used, even ten Qian Xiaoxing is not the emperor's opponent."

Wang Lin said happily: "Since my son-in-law is willing to exchange such a large amount of land, my father-in-law naturally cannot treat him badly, so I will agree to his request."

A general next to him reminded: "Emperor, Qian Xiaoxing is famous in China. He can trip the Great Hu Kingdom with a small Liufeng City. This person is unfathomable. If you let him go today, it is like letting the tiger return to the mountain. You will definitely come to attack my Lin Kingdom in the future. Please think twice."

Wang Lin said helplessly: "Do you think I really want to let him go? I'm forced to do it too. Qian Xiaoxing said that if he doesn't let him go, he will fight to the death with us. Don't forget that there is Shi Guo behind us. If we fight with Si Guo, Shi Guo will pick up the ready-made ones, and we will not be able to protect ourselves by then."

Everyone listened to my King Lin’s analysis and had to remain silent. King Lin continued: "Qian Xiaoxing is best at fire attack. Now we have a way to destroy the fire of refining bombs, and Qian Xiaoxing cannot pose a threat. If Qian Xiaoxing dares to invade our country in the future, our Dalin country will have 300,000 elite troops, and I am still afraid that he will not succeed!"

Seeing that King Lin had already made a decision, the soldiers had to say: "The emperor is wise. The territory we occupied this time, plus the land cut by Qian Xiaoxing, accounted for nearly two-thirds of the Hu Kingdom's area, which is a brilliant result."

"Haha," said Lin Wang happily, "I think my country has never had such a large territory since its founding. I am worthy of my ancestors and will leave me a lot in history. Then I will reply immediately and agree to Qian Xiaoxing's conditions. I have always valued family affection. After all, he is my son-in-law."

"Yes, yes." Everyone said yes, and naturally there was another idea in their minds.

In Shandu City, Qian Xiaoxing held a military meeting. The purpose of this meeting was to introduce a person to everyone, Sima Yiqing.

When Sima Yiqing's figure appeared in the venue, everyone was stunned. Speaking of which, Sima Yiqing was also a powerful figure back then. It was him who helped Hu invade Si. It was him who made several plans that almost destroyed Si. It was him who instructed the assassin Qian Xiaoxing to implicate Si and was assassinated. Thinking of this, everyone was very excited.

Qian Xiaoxing naturally could understand what the generals thoughts were. Sima Yiqing had no expression on his face. After sitting with Sima Chuchu, Qian Xiaoxing said, "It's not that enemies don't get together. Our State and Hu were fighting fiercely back then. Sima Yiqing, as the Minister of Hu, was understandable to deal with our State. Fighting for the State is noble and glorious. I hope everyone can abandon past grudges and not pursue the past."

When Lu Shengzhong learned that Sima Yiqing was willing to surrender to Siguo, he was also very happy and said, "In our army, many generals and soldiers are from Hu. I think everyone will not care about the past. At present, Hu has been destroyed, so we can unite and protect our family and country!"

On the conference venue, Zheng Tong and Zheng Chang were even more excited when they saw Sima Yiqing. Zheng Chang said, "You are here too, it's great. We can fight side by side again in the future!"

Qian Xiaoxing took the opportunity to applaud and said, "Everyone applauded and welcomed Sima Yiqing for joining our army!"

The applause was getting louder and louder in the venue, and then Lu Shengzhong said: "The Chief of Staff and I have discussed it and decided to appoint Sima Yiqing as the Chief of Staff at the division level to be responsible for the various action plans of our army with Qian Xiaoxing. I believe that after the two of them join forces, our army will be stronger."

"Chief of Staff at the division level!" Sima Yiqing was not very clear about the rank system of Si Jun. Sima Chuchu explained to him. When he learned that he was at the same level as Qian Xiaoxing, he was also very excited and stood up and said, "Qian Xiaoxing, if you value me so much, then I can only devote myself to Si Jun and will never disappoint you!"

When the soldiers below heard that Sima Yiqing was treated as a division level as soon as he came, many people were naturally dissatisfied. Qian Xiaoxing could guess a few points when he looked at everyone's expressions and said, "Sima Yiqing was in Hu before, but he was under one person and above ten thousand people. The treatment of division level was not high. Moreover, our army was besieged in Shandu. Sima Yiqing already had the solution to understand the trap. Everyone will slowly understand his abilities in the future."

These soldiers were brought out by Qian Xiaoxing, and they were willing to listen to Qian Xiaoxing's words. Many soldiers asked, "What is the solution to the problem?"

Qian Xiaoxing talked to everyone about Sima Yiqing's plan to cede land and pursue the sum of land, and then said: "Although this plan greatly harms our interests, under the current circumstances, it is the best way. As long as we can retain our army, we can fight back in the future!"
