"I don't know what the military advisor means by using local materials, and I ask the military advisor to say it clearly." Li Zhi asked Xu Maogong puzzled.

"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recruits the soldiers and horses of the Xi State and promises them to help them re-establish the country after the Khitan is destroyed, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think they can refuse?" Xu Maogong said to Li Zhi with a smile.

Xu Maogong is right, now Xi Guo has become a mortal situation. There was no room for manoeuvre at all, even if he did not surrender to Li Zhi. In the end, the only thing that awaits them is destruction.

So even if they suspected Li Zhi and were using them against the Khitan, they would definitely have no choice. So that's the real one-and-done.

"This method of the military advisor is feasible, but it makes this palace lose a chance to kill. There is indeed a little regret for Hongu. Li Zhi said to Xu Maogong with a smile.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may not leave regrets, and even let the Khitan and Xi Guoji dogs not stay in the end. Isn't that enough to satisfy His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Xu Maogong asked Li Zhi with a smile.

"Don't blame Cheng Biting Jin for saying that you have a bad stomach, sure enough, the head of a scholar is not ordinary." After Yu Chigong pursed his lips, he said to Xu Maogong.

"I'm just offering a plan, and it's up to you to really complete this plan. After all, killing on the battlefield is the key to the most fundamental victory. Xu Maogong said to Yu Chigong with a smile.

"Since both of them think this plan is feasible, then do what the military advisor says. It's just that I don't know how to contact the soldiers and horses of Xi State? Li Zhi nodded and asked.

"This matter is not difficult, only the prince's palace needs to send a letter to the chiefs of the five tribes. When the time comes, they will definitely rush to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Xu Maogong said to Li Zhi.

"I don't know how this letter should be sent, and now we can't even touch the figure of others. You can't send people to look for them like flies on this grassland. Li Zhi said to Xu Maogong puzzled.

This Xi country is a nomadic people, and it belongs to the same branch of the Xianbei Yuwen Department as the Khitan. Therefore, under normal circumstances, they have no fixed residence, and they will live where the water and grass are abundant.

Now that Li Zhi has led troops to conquest, this has made them even more hidden their whereabouts. In this way, they can preserve their strength. After all, they know in their hearts that they are definitely not opponents of others.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have to worry about this matter, as long as you hand over this matter to the vanguard general Wei Chi Gong, he will definitely satisfy the crown prince." Xu Maogong looked at Yu Chigong and said with a smile.

"You bull-nosed old Daojing is talking nonsense there, my lieutenant Chi Gong is a big old man, how can he have that ability." Wei Chigong glared at Xu Maogong and said angrily.

Wei Chigong's words couldn't help but make Li Zhi feel reasonable. So he looked at Xu Maogong puzzled, and didn't know why Xu Maogong thought that Wei Chigong could do this.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have to worry, if he can't do it, he will be beaten with fifty military sticks. If he succeeds, then the fifty sticks don't need to be beaten. Xu Maogong said to Li Zhi with a smile.

Although Li Zhi didn't understand why Xu Maogong would be so difficult for Wei Chigong. But in the end, Li Zhi still chose to listen to Xu Maogong. So he wrote five letters on the spot and handed them to Wei Chigong.

Although Wei Chigong was reluctant, he could only accept this errand with a bitter face in the end. But naturally, he inevitably glared at Xu Maogong fiercely. It's kind of out of his own anger.

……

Wei Chigong, who returned to the vanguard army camp, told Li Tai about Xu Maogong's plan. After Li Tai heard this, he couldn't help but nod and said, "What a trick to kill people with a knife." ”

"But in this case, I am afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be discredited. After all, the front foot promised to help people rebuild the country, but in the end they crossed the river and demolished the bridge, which is not a righteous act. ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't seem to care about these at all, what he wants is victory. It doesn't matter how you use it to achieve this. ”

"That's so much like you kid. They are all unscrupulous means to achieve their goals, and you are worthy of being brothers and sisters. Wei Chigong said with a sigh.

"It's right to do whatever it takes to do anything to these foreign races, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looks forward and backward now. I'm afraid he won't be able to do great things in the future. Li Tai said to Wei Chigong.

"But I think Bullnose is old-fashioned, and probably knows you're with me. Otherwise, how could he be so confident that I could successfully send the prince's handwritten letter to the chiefs of the various tribes of Xi State? Xu Maogong said to Li Tai.

"After all, these few troop trips are very different from your previous fighting style. If Uncle Xu still can't see the strangeness, he is not worthy of giving advice to his father. ”

"It seems that I was negligent for a moment, and I have revealed such an obvious flaw. It seems that we must pay attention to it in the future. Li Tai shook his head helplessly and said.

"This bull-nosed old way is really not ordinary bad. I actually played with my brother and dealt with Cheng Biting Jin's set. No wonder Cheng bites Jin and scolds him when he has nothing to do. Wei Chigong said angrily.

"Uncle Wei Chi doesn't have to worry, this matter will be handled by the little nephew, and it will be kept to the satisfaction of His Royal Highness the Prince. So Uncle Wei Chi doesn't have to worry, he will be beaten with a military stick by Uncle Xu. Li Tai said to Yu Chigong with a smile.

Wei Chigong didn't ask Li Tai what method he used, because Wei Chigong knew very well in his heart. If this matter is handled by Li Tai, it will definitely be easy.

Unexpectedly, now that Li Tai has accepted the matter, Wei Chigong directly sent Li Zhi's handwritten letter to Li Tai. Then he went to rest with confidence, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

Li Tai opened his mouth and said in the empty tent: "Inform Chiying and let them find a way to send these five handwritten letters from the prince to the chiefs of the tribes of Xi Kingdom. Within three days, the king must see the effect. ”

……

"Chief, there are envoys of the Tang army asking to see outside the tent. Consult with the chief on all important matters. The soldiers of Xi came to the chief of the Ahui Department and said.

Although the chief of the Ahui Department did not know what the envoys of the Tang Army were doing. However, he still sent someone to invite the envoys of the Tang Army into the big tent.

"Now that our two armies are at war, I wonder why you have come to see this chief?" The chief of the Ahui Department opened his mouth and asked the envoy of the Tang Army.

"Chief, I have been ordered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to deliver a letter to the Chief. As long as the chief has read the letter, he will naturally understand my intention. The envoy of the Tang army said to the chief of the Ahui Department.

After reading the letter, the chief of the Ahui Department understood Li Zhi's intentions. There was a look of joy on his face unconsciously.

After all, at this time, he has been forced to a dead end, so taking refuge in Li Zhi is definitely his best choice at present, and he naturally will not refuse Li Zhi.

So he said very politely to the envoy: "Please go back and tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that my Ministry of Meetings is willing to take His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as the leader." ”

The Xi State is divided into five tribes, namely the Ahui Department, the Division and the Department, the Ao Lost Department, the Du Ji Department, and the Yuan Qi Folding Department. In addition to the Ahui Ministry, the chiefs of the other four tribes also received letters from the crown prince Li Zhi.

As Xu Maogong guessed, they all hoped to get Li Zhi's support. Help them exterminate other tribes and then build their own state. So naturally accepted Li Zhi's proposal.
