Beigong Jie accepted a secret mission to Linzi, and he ostensibly performed official duties, but secretly told Qi Jinggong: "Of course, the widow wants to follow the Qi State, but most of the doctors oppose it. Only by leaving me in the Qi Kingdom can the princes of the two countries fulfill their wishes. ”

The Qi people immediately detained Beigong Jie, citing that he was "rude" to Qi Jinggong.

After the news reached Wei Guo, Wei Linggong complained to the ministers: "Okay, the masters have all got their wishes now!" But the Marquis of Qi lost his temper, and you still had to guard your fiefdom and not be taken away by the Qi people. Also, what should Dr. Beigong do? He has no intention of opposing the people of Qi! He risked his life for your sake. Who will deliver him, Masters? Who went to tell Qi Hou and said, 'I prevented the widow from attending the meeting, not Beigong Jie.' So please let him go! Why didn't you speak? If you don't go, you'll have to go to the widows. ”

The doctors all bowed their heads and were silent, and Wei Linggong rushed to Chengdi with secret joy. However, due to the inadequacy of the Heavenly Father, he did not catch up with the Chengdi Alliance, and later met Qi Jinggong in other locations.

Qi Linggong finished his meeting with Wei Linggong and returned to Linzi. He ordered the Xia Shuai of the country to be Valu (all the previous betrayals of the alliance of the Qi State started with Valu). The Qi division surrounded the defense yip, and the three Huan Shuai divisions rescued the defense.

At that time, the Qi division was stationed in the north of the defense, and the Lu army was stationed in the south of the defense. Yang Hu saw that the camp of the Qi division was very large, and the precautions were very sparse, so he came up with the idea of attacking the enemy camp at night. He sent some scouts to investigate the situation, and most of the scouts successfully completed their mission, and only one unlucky guy was captured by the Qi people.

Although the scout did not divulge any information until his death, the Qi people had already guessed the enemy's intentions. The commanders decided to do what they wanted, to make a turtle in an urn, close the door and beat the dog.

Usually when this happens, the generals have to cancel or change the original plan. But Yang Hu was unmoved, still stubbornly demanding to act according to plan.

Ji Huanzi was about to go crazy, he decided that Yang Hu's sneak attack on the enemy army was fake, and killing people with a knife was real; If the Qi people's knives were not sharp enough, Yang Hu might personally catch up with the front to mend the knives.

Ji Huanzi wanted to ask Meng Yizi for help, but his activities were monitored everywhere - Yang Yue served as his personal guard captain and Yu Rong, and he was inseparable from him all day long; Any attempt to circumvent Yanghu is impossible.

Ji Huanzi simply pretended to be actively involved in the plan, carefully discussed every detail with the commanders, and finally said: "Invite Meng Sun, his mission has changed." ”

Not long after, Meng Yizi took Yu Rong Gong's virgin father (Gong Zhiyang) and Che Youyue into the military tent. Ji Huanzi pretended to explain the situation to Meng Yizi. As he spoke, he was suddenly stunned for a moment, and immediately pretended to be surprised and asked Yang Hu: "It seems that a scout has not returned, if he has an accident, will the operation be canceled?" As he spoke, he winked at Meng Yizi. Meng Yizi and his entourage all saw his small movements. Yang Hu didn't find out, and in order to convince Meng Yizi, he began to gush on the reason why there was no need to change the plan.

Meng Yizi's retainers and Yang Hu had been hostile to each other for a long time, and at this time, the public virgin father Yin and Yang said to Meng Yizi in a strange manner: "My lord! Yang Hu didn't even think about whether the news leaked or not, I'm afraid we will all die by the enemy tonight! ”

Toma Yue glared angrily at Yang Hu and shouted: "If someone puts the two secretaries in danger, you don't have to wait for Doctor Si to arrive, I will kill that guy on the spot!" ”

Yang Hu was calmed by Toma's violent anger, and saw that his intentions had been revealed, so he no longer insisted on the original plan, but asked Ji Huanzi to make a decision. Ji Huanzi announced the termination of the operation, so that he and Meng Yizi escaped.

The people of Qi waited all night but did not wait for the enemy, and Guoxia was unwilling to take the initiative to attack. The two armies confronted each other for a few more days, and Guoxia withdrew.

After the end of the defensive battle, Lu Dinggong sent an envoy to Xinjiang to report the situation. At the end of the year, the envoy of the Jin State came to Qufu again, and the envoy made a request that made the people of Lu feel very headache - to attack the State of Qi.

In the first month of the eighth year of Lu Ding Gong (BC502), Lu Ding Gong led his army to attack Yangzhou, a border province of Qi State. When the Lu people levied the army, they were huge, and when the army marched, this formation would definitely lead to a big war to outsiders.

However, the army stopped marching before it could enter the territory of Qi. In the end, only a thousand infantry led by Ran Hui and Ran Meng's brothers attacked Yangzhou. Obviously, this was just a perfunctory retaliation to deal with the Jin.

The Lu army came to the city of Yangzhou and shouted at the city; In response, several arrows were fired from the city. The attackers then began to knock on the gates, and when they saw that they were not moving, they sat down in a row on the ground and began to chatter.

There was a warrior named "Yan Gao" in the Lu army, who was a famous shooter. It is said that his bow can only be drawn with the force of six junks (the army will not have more than five bows). Yan Gao was sitting not far from the city gate, and his comrades-in-arms saw that he was carrying that very domineering bow, so they borrowed it from him to admire. Yan Gao triumphantly handed the bow to him, and the companions around his comrades-in-arms were also very curious, and also reached out to borrow it; As a result, the bow was passed all the way down and farther and farther.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps and weapons colliding in the city, the city gate suddenly opened, and the Yangzhou armor soldiers swarmed out. The people of Lu were shocked; Yan Gao couldn't find his bow in a panic, so he had to grab one casually. Qi Ren Qiu Zi picked up a long sword and knocked Yan Gao and the other person to the ground. Yan Gao fell to the ground and shot an arrow, right in the middle of Qiu Zi's eyebrows; Ji Qiuzi died of anger on the spot. Yan Gao later said to his friend: "I'm really useless, I originally wanted to shoot him in the left eye." ”

The Lu people quickly retreated and quickly assembled into a defensive formation. They found that there were not many people in Yangzhou, and they were only slowly pressing the enemy, and they did not mean to kill them all. The Lu army slowly retreated, and the Yangzhou people advanced a hundred and ten steps and stopped, and the Lu people withdrew.

Ran Hui led the army forward, and he saw Ran limping beside him; He could see that Ran Meng's leg injury was faked, so he scolded loudly: "Meng! Go to the Queen! ”

The Battle of Yangju ended in a hurry.

The Jin people soon received the report, and the Shi Yan was very dissatisfied with the course and outcome of the battle. But he couldn't ask for anything more, so he had to send his retainers to Lu and say to Yang Hu: "I really want to help you improve your status in Lu State, but what you do must first satisfy the widow." The performance of the Lu army in the Battle of Yangzhou has deeply disappointed the widow, and you had better do something to redeem your bad impression in the widow's heart. ”

Yang Hu knew in his heart that the person who was "deeply disappointed" was actually Shi Ying, so he "requested" Ji Huanzi to attack the Qi State again.
