After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight

Chapter 274 Because It's Suitable

"Besides, 40,000 soldiers are not enough to face 100,000. Moreover, there are nearly 20,000 soldiers guarding the South Gate. If we can't take the South Gate within three days, we will definitely be doomed in this battle."

"This approach will most likely fail to stop the reinforcements and take down the South Gate!"

In the end, it was all in vain!

The veteran analyzed the pros and cons clearly, so no one else dared to mention splitting the troops into two groups.

Even the young player who had made this suggestion earlier seemed to realize that this plan was inappropriate.

Their 80,000-strong army had no way to retreat after crossing the river. If they were to separate again, the possibility of being annihilated would increase.

Qi Jianshu suddenly said, "Please ask for external help."

Someone nearby saw that it was Qi Jianshu who was speaking, and couldn't help but sneer, "It's easy for you to say that. We have already entered the territory of the Great Zhou. Where can we ask for external help?"

"The Japanese have always coveted the cities of the Great Zhou. If we join forces with them and ask them for assistance, there is at least an 80% chance that the Japanese will be willing to send troops!"

"Even if Japan is willing to send troops, I'm afraid they will strike while the iron is hot and force us to sign some unreasonable contracts."

"Then tell them that they are not the only ones willing to cooperate with us. The Eastern Grasslands are also eyeing the Great Zhou. And... if that person doesn't want to be disgraced, he also needs to make some efforts."

"There are at least 50,000 soldiers capable of fighting at the east and west gates. I don't think he would want to let these people return to the capital alive."

"After all, only the mouth of the dead is the most reliable!"

What a good strategy of forming alliances!

If two parties are truly convinced by this move, their situation will be reversed in one fell swoop, and they will turn from passive to active.

It was no longer them who were surrounded, but the city of Xi'an and even the 100,000 reinforcements sent by the Emperor of the Great Zhou.

After Qi Jianshu said this, everyone was stunned.

It's not that they don't know how to use their brains, it's just that they are usually better at deploying troops and fighting the enemy, which... are things that only staff are good at.

There was also a hint of surprise and thoughtfulness in Qi Minsong's eyes when he looked at Qi Jianshu.

What Qi Jianshu proposed was indeed the best solution at the moment, but as a military general, he seemed to be better at scheming and lacked the passion of a military general.

No matter what, Qi Minsong could only suppress these thoughts for now and start discussing who was more suitable to be the "lobbyist" according to Qi Jianshu's suggestion?

Only a few people present volunteered, and the others did not want this opportunity.

This opportunity seems to be a good chance to make a contribution, but opportunities and dangers coexist.

For them, firstly, they are not good at speaking but are better at brandishing weapons. They are afraid that if they fail to reach an agreement, they will offend all their allies.

Secondly, this plan was not an aboveboard one. Their attack on Xi'an city was a collaboration with the Great Zhou from within and without, with 200,000 men fighting against 50,000.

Now they have to recruit foreign aid. If others tell them that they are useless and it is shameful!

As for the few who recommended themselves, they were almost all young generals, and their vision was not as mature and experienced as that of the veterans. Therefore, they only saw the benefits of this matter once it was done well, but far ignored its disadvantages.

They wanted to recommend themselves, but someone was unwilling to let Qi Jianshu feel so comfortable!

"Since you came up with this idea, I think everyone should trust you more to get this done!" The general who had deliberately ridiculed Qi Minsong before started to attack Qi Jianshu indiscriminately.

In his opinion, no one in the Qi family is good.

One of them took the position of commander-in-chief of the three armies by relying on the reputation of his ancestors.

The other had a great opportunity but failed to win the battle. Instead, he was like a drowned dog and suffered a miserable defeat.

As long as he can cause trouble for them, he is happy to be the bad guy.

Qi Jianshu glanced at the person who spoke. The other person was not afraid of his gaze at all. He raised his eyebrows provocatively and sneered.

Everyone else was silent.

Some people were unwilling to let Qi Jianshu take advantage of this opportunity and wanted to make contributions themselves.

Most of the generals did not dare to interrupt easily. No matter what, Qi Jianshu was still a member of the Qi family. How could they allow them to point fingers here!

Qi Minsong seemed not to understand the undercurrent between them, and calmly ordered, "Since Zuo Qianfeng has proposed this, then this matter will be handed over to Qi Jianshu. Do you have any objections?"

Everyone looked at each other, and finally answered in unison, "The general is wise!"

Qi Jianshu inexplicably took on this "hot potato".

Qi Minsong waved his hand, indicating that they could all go out, and then called on Qi Jianshu to stay.

The others filed out of the tent, returned to the battlefield and continued fighting.

As for Qi Minsong, he did not favor Qi Jianshu as they expected. He just calmly planned with him how to convince these forces to send troops to cooperate with them.

Qi Jianshu couldn't guess what Qi Minsong meant by this, but seeing that he didn't say much, he put the question aside for the time being and discussed the important matters.

After they finalized the details, Qi Minsong still had no intention of saying anything else.

Before leaving, Qi Jianshu couldn't help but turned back and asked, "Why did you give this task to me?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Minsong paused writing for a moment, then raised his eyes and stared at Qi Jianshu calmly.

“Because it’s appropriate.”

Qi Jianshu, "......"

It's because he's too worried.

Since Qi Minsong is the commander-in-chief of the three armies, he will not easily show favoritism.

"You were the one who proposed this proposal. I believe you are more confident than others in the specific implementation method, so you are the most suitable."

Qi Minsong picked up a pen and wrote as he spoke. No one knew what he was writing, and Qi Jianshu had no intention of peeking.

After Qi Jianshu got the answer he wanted, he didn't delay any further and turned around to do what he was supposed to do.

As soon as he left, Qi Minsong called in his confidant who was guarding outside the tent, and then handed him a letter he had written.

"Send this letter back to your majesty."

The envelope was signed by Qi Minsong in a flamboyant handwriting. It looked unrestrained and bold, yet also contained the fierceness of a military general.

Just like him, he gives people the feeling of a sharp sword ready to be unsheathed at any time.

"Yes."

Before the confidant left, he suddenly stopped and asked Qi Minsong, "Why didn't the general tell him clearly just now?"

This "he" is naturally Qi Jianshu.

There were two General Qi in one camp, and they were of the same generation. One was the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and the other was only an eighth-rank captain. It would be inappropriate to call him that.

In order to avoid being disrespectful to Qi Minsong, they could only call Qi Jianshu... him!

"Tell him what?"

"General, please don't hide it from me. Others may not know it, but I do. The general wants to give...Captain Qi a chance."

An opportunity to make a contribution and prove himself, and also to shut up those who were talking about Qi Jianshu behind his back.

Qi Minsong smiled and said nothing, "Go ahead."
