Chapter 69: One step back, the sea is wide open, and there is no way to go (Twelve)

Seeing that everyone was arguing, both opinions made sense, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while, the adviser beside him suggested, "It would be better to invite the King of Bei to come in first. It would be best if he was willing to attack Yan State together. If he insisted and refused, he would not ruin the great affairs of the King of Chen."

King Ping felt that this was reasonable, so he asked someone to invite Beijun. When everyone saw that he had made a decision, they stopped arguing.

After a moment, Bu Jingxian arrived and when he saw King Ping, hello politely clasped his fists and said hello.

"I have long admired King Ping's reputation for a long time. I have long hated that I have seen it. This time, King Zheng knows people and is able to send King Ping to take charge of the great event of attacking Yan. It will definitely be successful. The troops will reach the city and break through Yandu all the way!"

Although King Ping was proud and conceited, he also knew the reputation of Beijun. He could not help but be happy when he heard his praises, and his attitude was even more enthusiastic. He asked him to sit down and talk, and then gave him a cup of good tea he brought.

"The Northern Lord is so powerful that it is something that people have long hated to see! I wonder why he suddenly came here without capturing Beilong City this time?"

"Oh——!" Bu Jingxian smiled disapprovingly, "The words of King Ping are wrong. Yan State is undoubtedly destroyed. It is impossible to defeat the Yan army, just Chu State Yan Army. Now there is a large army of Zheng State, the overlord of the world, and the King Ping is personally leading. How can anyone worry about the matter of Yan State? Since I have formed an alliance with Zheng State, I naturally cannot covet the land of Yan State. Yan State does not need to stay extra at all. Instead, it is a battle to attack Chen. I have to go there in person to be relieved! Today, I also want to know when King Ping will send troops to attack the Beiguan City of Yan State. At that time, the martyrdom army will definitely help with all its strength, and then I will take this pass back."

After Bu Jingxian said that, without waiting for someone to interrupt, he continued, "Originally, we have formed an alliance, and there will be no problem with such a small matter. I know that your country will never stop the martyr army from passing the martyrdom. But I have long admired King Ping and really don't want to miss the opportunity to meet today! Hahaha..."

It is hard for King Ping to say what he had prepared earlier.

Seeing this, Zheng State General Li Gong hurriedly said, "Of course, King Ping will not stop the Martyr's Army from passing through the barriers, but how can the Martyr's Army leave without helping the war?"

Bu Jingxian laughed and said, "First, I have said just now that there is King Ping and Zheng's invincible military generals here, so there is no need for the help of the martyrs; secondly, the martyrs lack weapons and food, so they cannot be delayed for a moment, otherwise they will starve to death halfway through the road if they cannot even go back to the north."

Gong Li immediately responded, "What if our army is willing to provide weapons, food and grass for the martyrdom army?"

Bu Jingxian secretly felt that this man was powerful, but he had considered this possibility before coming, so he smiled and said, "If King Ping was so urgently needed the help of the martyrdom army to be sure to conquer Yan State and be willing to provide enough weapons, food, I will certainly not refuse!"

Li Gong hurriedly persuaded King Ping, but before he could speak, he was scolded by the frowning King Ping to stop him, "What are you doing?" Then he said to Bu Jingxian with a kind look, "Don't care, Beijun, General Li likes to joke the most. We don't have much weapons, food, how can we help the martyrdom army? Besides, what's the point of Yan State? Since Beijun has a last resort, then wait until the Beiguan City in Yan State is broken and goes back."

"Ping Wang..." Li Gong hurriedly wanted to persuade him when he heard this, but was stared at by Ping Wang and had to shut up.

Bu Jingxian felt ridiculous inwardly, but he didn't expect that King Ping was even less knowledgeable than the rumors. He was stingy with some weapons, food and grass, and was so unbearable that he could not bear the praise and agitated general, so he was willing to release more than 700,000 martyrs back to the mountain.

‘It’s ridiculous that King Zheng is employed in such a person.’

He still smiled and said, "Ping Wang is really refreshing and is a friend worth making! I heard that Ping Wang is the best to play chess, and happened to have obtained the deputy white jade chess in Yan State. Although it is not a precious thing, I still hope that Ping Wang can accept it with a smile."

Someone came to take the gift and sent it to King Ping to open it.

When he saw that the chessboard and chess pieces were made of beautiful jade, he couldn't help but feel happy and full of joy.

"Bei Jun is too polite, too polite!"

King Ping was happy and quickly asked someone to prepare wine and food, and no matter what, he would give in to Bu Jingxian to stay as a guest.

Bu Jingxian discovered that King Ping not only had no talent but was very proud of his face, but also greedy for money and property as rumored. So he agreed to stay. After the banquet, King Ping was a little drunk and wanted to let the beautiful maid he brought to bed.

"How is Beijun looking at this woman's appearance? If she can appreciate it, let her accompany her tonight!"

Bu Jingxian was not very interested in beauty. He had no idea at this moment, and he didn't want to waste the opportunity. He smiled and said, "Who is not a stunning beauty next to King Ping? But I came this time to see King Ping's style. If King Ping was not drunk, why don't you and I drink and talk about him all night? Wouldn't you feel more happy!"

King Ping was so flattered today. He had heard many allusions of heroes who cherish each other and talked about overnight. But he had never tried it. He also knew that the Northern King was so powerful that he looked down on him so much. He naturally felt even more proud in his heart. Without thinking, he agreed, "How could I refuse the Northern King's praise for such a favor? It's just that the Northern King is the hero who is powerful. I am afraid that my lack of talent will disappoint the Northern King..."

At this time, he became more and more happy with Bu Jingxian. He also felt that although he was the King of Ping of Zheng, his fame and ability were not comparable to those of the Northern King, and he was willing to be modest.

"Why is King Ping so humble? A real man is based in the world. As long as he has the ability, why should he be afraid of showing his sharpness? I have known that King Ping had known people."

"What Beijun said is very much! I was able to meet Beijun today, which really makes people feel that I met too late—"

Bu Jingxian actually had nothing to say with King Ping. He said he had a chat all night, but King Ping was not a martial arts practitioner. He was usually too addicted to alcohol and sex, and his body could not support him. He fell drunk on the table in less than an hour. Bu Jingxian didn't ask anyone to support him. He just got drunk and fell on the table.

It was not until a servant discovered that they helped them away.

The next day, King Ping woke up and heard that Beijun had left, so he said he had left a letter.

"Baijun got drunk last night and was drunk at his desk with King Ping..."

Seeing that the letter was sincere, King Ping felt reluctant to part with him. When he thought of this short time, he couldn't help but think that Beijun was a close friend.

"In the past, I often heard the word "confidant" and I have only obtained a confidant today--!"

King Ping couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart, and even regarded Bu Jingxian as his life confidant.

Bu Jingxian never expected that King Ping was so easily impressed. Originally, he knew that King Ping was not a capable man. During a brief observation, he found that King Ping was very easy to be praised by him. At first, he suspected that King Ping was pretending to be a hero. Later, he realized that King Ping actually wanted to be a hero, but no one praised him in the past. Those who respected him were all for his identity, rather than admiring his talent.

Bu Jingxian thought that King Ping was much despised by the former kings of Zheng in the past, but was not as good as the current King of Zheng. His brothers were talented, so naturally they did not dare to think of themselves as heroes, but they were secretly proud. Therefore, when he was praised by him, the real king of Zhou, who was famous all over the world, he was particularly useful.

Bu Jingxian thought that King Ping would be useful in the future, so he left the Martyrdom Army to ignore it overnight, just to enhance friendship with him.

Speaking of which, King Ping sighed in front of many people, causing Li Gong and others to quickly remind him, "The Northern King is the future enemy of Zheng State. If King Ping is like this, I am afraid that the Lord will not be happy..."

When King Ping heard this, he couldn't help but say, "Now he is an ally with the King of Northern. In the future, when the king and the king must be an enemy, I will naturally not forget the public because of my own private reasons. Why do you need reminders?"

Finally, he ordered, "I have agreed with the King of Beijun to send troops to Beiguan City, Yan State tomorrow! At that time, Beijun will also lead the martyrdom army to attack..."

Li Gongbud dissuaded him again, "The martyrs are now eager to capture Beiguan City. Why not force them to attack the city first to reduce casualties in our army?"

"Nonsense!" King Ping had been unhappy with Li Gong for a long time, thinking that he always sang against him. At this time, he couldn't help but scolded him angrily, "The Chu army has launched a full-scale attack on Yan State. If our army continues to wait, hum! Only the land of Yan State falls into the hands of the Chu army!"

Li Gong knew that he had offended King Ping, so he had to stop saying anything. However, he felt that King Ping really did not understand military affairs. Even if the Chu army had already attacked, it would not be possible to attack much land in the short term. The martyrdom army was short of food for traveling far away. After waiting for two days, Beijun would be forced to attack Beicheng Pass.

‘Your Majesty is really a mistake to use King Ping! Alas—’

The next day, King Ping led the Zheng army and the martyrdom army led by Bu Jingxian to attack the Beiguan City of Yan. The Yan army did not expect that the martyrdom army suddenly arrived from the east of the city. Although they organized an interception, the lethality of the military armies did not play the original role, and most of them were destroyed by Bu Jingxian.

The Beiguan City, which was outnumbered, was captured in less than half a day, with more than 200,000 troops stationed in the army, was defeated. More than 100,000 retreating Yan troops fled in a hurry and were chased by the army led by King Ping for 130 miles until they escaped into Beilong City and survived.

Because of the help of King Ping, the martyr army left Yan State with some food and supplies. The day after the Beiguan City of Yan State was captured, the army carried the wounded and rushed to the mountainous areas on the border of the former Wei State.

Although Zheng State used the road, it refused to let the martyrs walk through the road within the territory, so it agreed with the martyrs to let the martyrs go to the mountains outside the defense line, detour to the north, and pass through the poor mountains and waters in the north of Zheng State to return to the north. This took a long time, but after all, it could return safely.

Martyrs are excited, and they are not afraid of the long journey. Most of them are soul and will seekers who have passed the journey and live a displaced life.

However, the Martyrs used a trick to make a fool of themselves and did not all move from the east to the north. Instead, they rushed from the west outside the Beiguan City of Yan State along the mountains outside the Yan State.
