Tian Ji wore heavy armor and a solemn face as he walked slowly through the Qi Palace.
After receiving the news of the sudden attack by the Han army, he hurried back to Linzi from the Qi camp.
At this time, the atmosphere in the court was extremely solemn, and the civil and military officials of Qi lowered their voices and talked a lot.
King Qi Xiang, who was sitting high on the throne, kept twisting his fat body, his face was frightened and uneasy.
"Special service officer Tian Ji is here!"
The eunuch hurriedly came to deliver the message, and Tian Ji stepped into the court with tiger-like steps. His face was solemn and he asked: "Although the Han army is coming with fierce force at this time, Qi State has 300,000 soldiers who can fight, so why should we be afraid?"
?”
"As long as your Majesty gives the order, I will immediately raise my troops to fight the Han army. If I can defeat them, I will weaken their spirit."
"General Tian Ji is truly a special service officer!"
"In the first battle of the Lu Kingdom, General Tian Ji destroyed dozens of cities. His military strength was not inferior to that of the Han army!"
"With Tian Ji's general Xing commanding the army, Qi is as stable as Mount Tai!"
"After defeating the invading Han guard, you can take advantage of the situation to counterattack Han and kill him without leaving a single piece of armor behind."
...
Above the court, the conversation suddenly started.
Tian Ji's bold words seemed to have infected everyone.
King Qi Xiang perked up, shook his body fat, and said loudly: "A mere Han bandit dares to covet the land of Qi. I have a special officer and army named Tian Ji, who is enough to resist the Han invaders!"
"General Tian Ji!"
"I'm here!"
"I order you to be the commander-in-chief, command the three armies, use all the soldiers of the country, and fight the Han army to the death!"
"My lord, I obey!"
Tian Ji solemnly clasped his fists, followed the order and retreated.
After the court meeting, Qi State also began to enter the highest level of military readiness.
at night.
King Qi Xiang tossed and turned, but he couldn't sleep at all. He looked fierce and depressed, but he was actually weak in nature.
When faced with major events, I feel frightened and uneasy, unable to calm down at all.
After thinking about it, King Qi Xiang put on some clothes and took a car to Sun Bin's house.
Sun Bin had a special status in the Qi State. Although he was already a useless person and was no longer above the Qi State's court, his reputation as a wise man impressed everyone.
"Your Majesty, are you here because of the invasion of Han Dynasty?"
"exactly."
King Qi Xiang was stunned for a moment, then he made a gesture of listening attentively and asked: "Why do you teach me, sir?"
Sun Bin said: "Will your Majesty send General Tian Ji as the commander-in-chief to lead the troops to attack the Han army?"
"How do you know, sir?"
"If General Tian Ji leaves, Qi will be in danger."
Sun Bin shook his head and smiled bitterly: "General Tian Ji is a veteran in the army. There is no omission in the formation of troops. It's just that General Tian Ji has a violent temper and is easy to act on impulse."
"And among the Han army, there are wise men like Zhang Liang and Han Fei. If he uses the method of provoking the generals to lure the enemy, General Tian Ji will definitely fall into the trap and defeat is imminent."
"If what I have predicted is correct, if the Han army moves, the top guards of the Yan Kingdom will definitely dispatch to attack the northern border of Da Qi. At the same time, Da Qi will be attacked from both sides, and Da Qi will be in danger."
King Qi Xiang was sitting on pins and needles. The more he listened, the more frightened he became. He asked: "Sir...how can we save this?"
Sun Bin said: "I am willing to go with the army and do my little bit for the king. As for the defense of Yan State going south, I can ask General Tian Dan to lead 30,000 troops, build strong walls and clear the country, so that the enemy can be kept out of the country."
King Qi Xiang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Just follow what Mr. Xiang said."
...
...
The troubled times of the Warring States Period finally kicked off.
Among the seven kingdoms, undercurrents are surging.
The two countries of Qin and Zhao faced off at Changping, while the two countries of Han and Qi, with their troops and horses frequently mobilized, also faced each other on the border of Qi.
The whole world is turbulent.
At this time, Wei Wuji, Lord of Xinling, went to Lan State as an envoy and brought good news to King Yan of Zhao.
The Han Dynasty is willing to use the land of Dang and one county in exchange for grassland war horses, forming a horn alliance with the Lan Kingdom.
When the fighter planes are suitable in the future, the three armies of the Han Dynasty can directly penetrate the Changping battlefield and launch an attack on the top of Qin's defense from the flanks.
When King Yan of Zhao received the news, he was as overjoyed as a man who has been in drought for a long time is overjoyed by the sudden burst of rain.
Shangdang County is located in the strategic center of Changping. With Shangdang County as a transfer point for logistical supplies, the Battle of Changping has a certain initiative.
Moreover, by forming an alliance with the Han Dynasty at this time, there is no need to touch Bai Yifei's 100,000 capable Han soldiers.
After discussing with the ministers of the Lan Kingdom, the two sides formally finalized the alliance in the Lan Kingdom court.
Wei Wuji, Lord of Xinling, argued hard and secured 8,000 war horses for the Han Dynasty. At the same time, he handed over the strategic center position of Shangdang County to the Lan State.
On the same day, Bai Yifei received a message from a flying pigeon above the night sky and started the next step.
Shangdang County is about to become a place of shocking and bloody battles, and the people in the county naturally do not want to stay here and wait to die.
They heard that the Emperor of Han treated the people generously, that the government of the Han Dynasty was people-oriented, and that there were many measures to reduce taxes, so they were naturally willing to follow Bai Yifei to move to the Han Dynasty.
As a result, Shangdang County's 100,000 troops, carrying all valuable people, money, food and equipment, moved to the Han Kingdom.
The Shangdang County left to Lan State will be an empty city...
The Qin State's spies swarmed the entire Changping battlefield and soon learned of the strange situation in Shangdang County.
The imperial special service officer Wang Jian, who was always good at catching fighter opportunities, immediately ordered the tiger general Wang Bi to launch a surprise attack on Dang County. He wanted to take advantage of Zhao Jun's unstable foothold and seize the strategic logistics center of Changping battlefield first.
The young imperial general Wang Bi and the veteran special service officer Pang Nuan of the Lan Kingdom fought several bloody battles in Shangdang generation. The two sides fought until the sky was dark, Shangdang's mutilated limbs were everywhere, and blood flowed everywhere!
A shocking battle is about to break out!
Liu Hao received the information about the Shangdang battle and couldn't help laughing: "The direction of the battle is indeed as expected by Han Fei and Zhang Liang. A war between the two countries is likely to open a gap in logistics."
The battle of Changping in history was not a direct penetration of the frontal battlefield, but the Qin State's repeated attempts to alienate the relationship between the Lan State's monarchs and ministers, and first made the Lan State's special service officer Li Mu lose his guard.
command power, and then let a fledgling Zhao Kuo control the military power.
By this time, Lan State's logistics had already encountered serious problems, and Zhao Kuo had no choice but to take the initiative to find a chance for a decisive victory.
Unfortunately, his enemy was Qin's special service officer Bai Qi.
