    Not long after, Kong Si came to the Chinese army¡¯s tent, saluted Wang Qi and said: ¡°I humble my post, Kong Si, to pay my respects to the Prime Minister.¡±

    Wang Qi waved his hand and said: "Sit!"

    Kong Si sat upright and said solemnly: "I wonder what the Lord has summoned me to do?"

    Wang Qi said: "My brother went on an envoy to Xiapi and has returned. Chen Yan agreed that I should also take charge of the affairs of Donghai County and Pengcheng Kingdom. These two places have been brought under my command. The current condition is that you return first  Come to Chen Yan's side and wait until I take control of the East China Sea and Pengcheng Kingdom before releasing all the captured soldiers."

    After hearing this, Kongsi perked up and said, "My lord, if I return to Chen Yan's humble position, I will definitely connect more people and let more people support my lord."

    Wang Qi smiled and said: "I'll wait and see. In fact, that's why I came to you. You return to Chen Yan, try your best to develop people, and keep making excuses for Chen Yan. When I attack Xiapi, it will be the perfect time for you to make a contribution."  "

    Kong Si said: "As a humble servant, please bear in mind the Lord's teachings."

    Wang Qi waved his hand and said: "Go!"

    "I resign from my humble position!"

    Kongsi bowed respectfully, then turned and left.

    Kongsi returned to his tent first, tidied up, and then quickly set off.

    It is now the end of November, and the weather is getting colder and colder, but Kongsi¡¯s speed on the road has not been delayed. He has been rushing all the way. When December has just entered, Kongsi has already arrived at Xiapi and returned to Xiapi City.

    Kong Si did not go home, but went directly to the Prefectural Mufu.

    He was the chief clerk in the Prefectural Mufu Mansion and could come and go as he pleased, so he went straight into the house.

    I met Chen Yan in the study room in the backyard.

    Like pushing a golden mountain toppling a jade pillar, Kong Si knelt directly on the ground and saluted: "Kong Si, the sinner, pays homage to the lord. I failed to fulfill my humble duty and caused the army to be defeated. Please punish me, lord."

    Chen Yan said coldly: "Tell me, what is going on in this battle?"

    Although he knew about Mo Bao's defeat, he still didn't know what happened specifically. After all, there were no soldiers who had escaped yet, and only his sentry sent back the news.

    Kongsi looked helpless and immediately said: "Reporting to my lord, at the beginning of this battle, General Mo Bao asked me to escort the grain and grass, and did not allow me to intervene in the battle command."

    "I once took out the lord's handwriting, but General Mo Bao couldn't help but still asked me to go to the rear to escort the grain."

    "I have no choice but to escort the food."

    Kongsi said: "I have arranged for someone to report this matter in a letter and explain it to the lord."

    Chen Yan was suddenly enlightened, and then he thought of what Kong Si had reported.  It's just that he glanced at it and ignored it, and didn't take it to heart.  Chen Yan felt anger rising in his heart and said: "This bastard Mo Bao is really lawless."

    Kong Si said: "It's just a humble job and incompetence."

    Chen Yan flicked his sleeves and said: "Get up, I can't blame you for this. After all, you said before that Mo Bao didn't listen to orders, and even asked me for a handwriting, just to dissuade Mo Bao. Unexpectedly, he was eventually defeated.  defeat."

    Kongsi stood up and continued: "I once told General Mo that when transporting food, we need enough troops to guard it to ensure the safety of the food and not to get into trouble as soon as it is attacked."

    Chen Yan said: "Mo Bao refused again?"

    Kong Si nodded and said: "General Mo said that he was resisting Wang Qi's army in the front, and I was transporting food in the rear, so nothing could happen. As a result, I only had more than two thousand soldiers to escort the food and grass."

    Chen Yan said: "So the grain road was attacked?"

    Kongsi said: "My lord is wise, General Mo confronted Wang Qi on the front line. I was escorting the grain halfway and was attacked by Wang Qi's people at night. Even though I organized people to resist, I failed in the end and was captured."

    "After I became a prisoner, it was later learned that Mo Bao left a group of soldiers on the front line to continue the confrontation with Wang Qi."

    "Mo Bao led his men back alone to recover the food. However, this time he was ambushed on the way, so Mo Bao failed and was killed, and the army was completely defeated."

    Kong Si said: "In the end, Xu Youdao, who stayed behind, led his troops to surrender. As a result, the entire army was defeated."

    After hearing Chen Yan, he said angrily: "You bastard, you are a waste. Mo Bao, this idiot, has already had his food stolen. The situation is not good. He should withdraw his troops immediately. He is still thinking about grabbing the food back. How can it be so easy?"  Things. Waste, waste!"

    Kongsi said: "My lord, you are all derelict in your duties. If you were despised to dissuade Mo Bao, this would not be the case."Chen Yan said: "I don't blame you."

    Hearing this, Kong Si said: "Even if my lord does not blame me, in order to redeem me, my lord gave Donghai County and Pengcheng Kingdom to Wang Qi, which is equivalent to increasing Wang Qi's strength. This loss and this price are too high."

    Chen Yan said: "As long as you are here, there will always be a chance. When people come back, we will still have a chance."

    Kongsi said: "My lord is wise."

    When he said these words, there was a sneer in his heart.

    Why Chen Yan exchanged for him, Kong Si knew this very well. Chen Yan did not exchange Pengcheng State and Donghai County in order to exchange for him. It was Wang Qi who put forward the conditions, and Chen Yan had no choice but to agree.

    He was just released first.

    Now Chen Yan wants to show kindness, as if he is giving it to Wang Qi, Donghai County and Pengcheng Kingdom, just to redeem people.

    This is not the truth.

    Kongsi did not expose it, but changed the topic and said: "My lord, Wang Qi is about to enter Donghai County and Pengcheng Kingdom. What do you think about this matter, lord?"

    A cold light flashed across Chen Yan's eyes, and he said: "What's there to consider? We must stop the attack and let Wang Qi take over Donghai and Pengcheng Kingdom on the surface and release our soldiers. As soon as our people come back, we will give Wang Qi  Qi caused trouble and got him into trouble."

    Kongsi frowned and said, "I'm afraid this matter will not be easy."

    Chen Yan said: "I know it's not easy. Master Kong, what can you do about this matter?"

    Kongsi said: "This is not easy to handle."

    Chen Yan said: "I only care about the results."

    There was a hint of coldness in his words.

    Kong Si was speechless about Chen Yan, but he did not show it and said: "Please allow me to think about it, my lord."

    Chen Yan said: "Think about it."

    Kongsi thought quickly.

    On the one hand, he must take into account Chen Yan's needs; on the other hand, he must ensure that it is beneficial to Wang Qi. Both must be taken into consideration.  Only in this way will Wang Qi's interests not be affected.

    Time passes little by little.

    Kong Si¡¯s eyes suddenly lit up and he said, ¡°My lord, there is a solution for this humble position.¡±

    Chen Yan said: "What can we do?"

    Kongsi said in a deep voice: "My lord has great influence in Xuzhou. My lord can write a letter to the big families in Donghai County and Pengcheng Kingdom, asking them to pretend to serve Wang Qi first and help Wang Qi control their respective affairs."  area."

    "Wait until Wang Qi releases our soldiers, and then let these people take over their respective locations."

    "My lord, just promise to let them take power. In this way, there is no need for you to take action. It will naturally be dog eating dog and the two sides will fight."

    At this time, Kongs seemed very relaxed.

    The plan is very simple.

    Even if you think about it carefully, there is nothing clever about it.

    Whether you accept it or not depends on Chen Yan himself.

    Chen Yan thought about it carefully and said: "This is a good idea. As long as it provokes a conflict of interests between the two parties, everything will be easy to handle and we can reap the benefits."

    Kong Si said: "This is what humble status means."

    Chen Yan ordered: "Master Kong, you are responsible for this matter and arrange it as soon as possible. You were once a prisoner of Wang Qi. Whether you can avenge your shame this time depends on your plan this time."

    Kongsi said loudly: "Please rest assured, my lord, I will definitely complete the task and let Wang Qi suffer a big loss."

    Chen Yan said: "I will wait and see."

    Kong Si bowed his head, turned around and left, no longer staying.

    Kongsi returned to his home and considered the follow-up arrangements.  He prepared the detailed plan and sent people to Donghai County and Pengcheng State to make arrangements. After all, the local wealthy families in Donghai County and Pengcheng State still had to give Chen Yan some face.

    After Kongsi finished arranging things, he sent another letter.

    This is for Wang Qi.

    So that Wang Qi can know the situation of Donghai County and Pengcheng Kingdom, and then make a response.
