One hundred thousand troops sent out troops in the afternoon. After the overwhelming rain of arrows, the Qi army, Chu army and Yue army rushed to the city wall of An city. The Qin army in An city faced the dense enemy army and only resisted symbolically for a while.
Most of them abandoned their weapons and surrendered, and only Yan Tai led more than a thousand of his own troops to retreat to the General's Office.
Huo Yuan ordered the soldiers to surrender outside the government office. Seeing that Yan Tai could not reverse the defeat, he committed suicide in the government office and died in benevolence.
When Yan Tai's soldiers saw that their general was dead, they carried Yan Tai's body out of the palace and surrendered to the Qi army.
King Wuyou was deeply saddened when he heard that Yan Tai had committed suicide. Then he sent an order to inform the people of An City about Yan Tai's death. When the people heard the news, they were angry that during the two months he had been guarding An City, he forcibly confiscated people's food and enslaved labor.
, their relatives and neighbors starved to death, and they flocked to the Qi army camp to share Yan Tai's food. The Qi army comforted the people: If a person dies, the crime is not as bad as the corpse. The armor can be worn on a wooden figure while alive, and the people can use branches to beat out their anger.
As a result, within a few moments, the armor and the wooden figure were smashed to pieces.
When King Wuyou heard the report from the soldiers in the camp, he also sighed deeply and ordered Yan Tai to be buried secretly in Jiudaoling Mountain. He also announced to the outside world that Yan Tai was guarding An City, causing the people to starve to death all over the city and to be eaten by the people.
its body.
When the King of Qin heard the news, he erected a tomb for Yan Tai in Xianyang City and conferred the title of Marquis of Yan Tai, which was hereditary for three generations.
Now that King Wuyou has captured Ancheng, there is no longer any obstacle to the southeast of Qin State, and the grain he obtained can be transported to Hanzhong and delivered to Zilong.
The news that the Qi army defeated the Qin army and captured the city of An also spread to the State of Yan. The King of Yan immediately sent a letter to the prince Zhao Sheng, asking him to negotiate peace with King Ping and that he was willing to join forces with the Qi State to use troops against Chen.
King Ping has been maintaining strong power against the Yan army at the border, gradually suppressing the Yan army, causing the Yan army to retreat to the border for nearly a hundred miles. When he heard that King Wuyou had taken Ancheng, he knew that the Yan army would definitely change its strategy. So for the Yan army proposed by Zhao Sheng
It is not surprising that Qi formed an alliance to attack Chen State together.
King Ping sent a letter to the King of Qi, telling the King of Yan about the alliance and the attack on Chen. The King of Qi agreed to King Ping's request, and the Qi and Yan armies split up and marched towards Chen, attacking Chen's army at Pingguan.
When King Chen got the news, he couldn't help but secretly approve of what Chen Mengzhu had expected that day. Fortunately, he had taken precautions early. Chen Qi led his army to gather in Pingguan. According to the terrain, it was enough to defend the Qi army from the Yan army.
The Yan army was eager to show its goodwill to Qi. In addition to cooperating with Qi to attack Pingguan, it also led by prince Zhao Sheng to attack the eastern territory of Chen.
The Qi army led by King Ping joined King Xiang's Xiang army and attacked Pingguan twice. However, they failed to achieve success, so they stopped attacking and returned to Xiangdi to confront Chen Qi at Pingguan. The Yan army saw the Qi army.
Zhao Sheng had no intention of attacking Chen State, so he stopped the offensive. After Zhao Sheng and King Ping agreed on the alliance between Yan and Qi, he led the army back to Yan, and the border returned to the usual situation. Prince Ping was happy to stop his weapons, because the severe winter was approaching, and for him,
As far as the army is concerned, the snow falls at the winter solstice and it is no longer possible for the army to start a campaign.
This winter, heavy snow began to fall earlier than usual. The wars in various countries have temporarily come to an end. The Qi army has connected the armies of Qin and Chen in a line, and the transportation of grain, grass, and clothing is also very convenient. As for Shu
With the assistance of Li Guogong, Qi Lu has completely controlled the military and political affairs of Shu.
Qi Lu also married Princess Xinyue of Chu State and held a grand wedding in Chengcheng. King Shu and King Shun personally hosted the wedding ceremony for Qi Lu and the princess. King Qi, King Chu, King Wu, King Yue and King Dali also sent
He sent envoys to Chengcheng and sent rich congratulatory gifts. At that time, the war in Qin was in full swing, and King Wuyou had no time to go to congratulate him, so he also sent Gu Yuetian to send congratulatory gifts.
When it came to the land of China, with snow falling in the northern Xinjiang, and thousands of miles of rivers and mountains covered with snow, King Wuyou saw that the war had come to a standstill, so he entrusted the military affairs of Hanzhong to Zilong and Prince Duan, and the military affairs of Ancheng to Huo Yuan.
The military affairs of Yi, Lincheng, Hecheng territories and Jiaocheng were under the jurisdiction of Zhuge Qingyun. He took Lu Zheng, Ye Xing and others and left Ancheng and went to Chengcheng to visit King Shun, and also asked Qi Lu and Princess Xinyue to supplement their duties.
Wedding wine.
Qi Lu was naturally filled with joy when he heard the news that King Wuyou was coming. At this time, he was already the supervisor of the Shu Kingdom, named Supervisor. In fact, all the military power of the Shu Kingdom was under Qi Lu's control.
King Wuyou arrived in Shu. Fortunately, there was not much snow in Shu. Although the road to Shu was difficult, King Wuyou and his party walked easily. From Ancheng to Dacheng, they rushed to Yucheng and met King Shu and King Shun first.
, Li Guogong and all the ministers and workers of the Shu Kingdom. Although King Shun's injury has not recovered at this time, he can already go to the ground to move a little, but he does not dare to overwork himself.
King Wuyou specially went to Li Guogong's mansion and met Li Long. Li Long was now one year older and much calmer than before. King Wuyou asked about Li Ling's injury and learned that Li Ling had basically recovered.
She recovered just because Huo Yuan was away fighting all year round, so he lived with Princess Huo in Hangzhou. Li Long heard that King Wuyou was going to Chengcheng to meet Qi Lu and his wife, and his face was full of loneliness. King Wuyou naturally knew her
Li Long asked Ying'er why she never walked with King Wuyou. King Wuyou laughed and said that the war was going on ahead and the road was difficult at this time, so he didn't give way.
Ying'er comes with you.
King Wuyou stayed in Yucheng for two days. During this period, Liu Chang also met King Wuyou with King Shu. At this time, Liu Chang looked no longer as energetic as before. He just acted like a victor, carefully trying to please King Wuyou. Wuyou
King Wuyou didn't take it seriously and smiled at the past. Two days later, King Wuyou said goodbye to King Shu, King Shun, Duke Li and others, and set off for Chengcheng.
Outside the city, Qi Lu led Princess Xin Yue to welcome King Wuyou for thirty miles and brought King Wuyou into the city. Princess Xin Yue could tell that she had heard about this king brother for a long time. When she met King Wuyou, she also met King Wuyou.
King Wuyou was modest and elegant, not like what she had heard. At first, the Crescent Moon Princess was still afraid of King Wuyou, but with a few words of laughter from King Wuyou, those fears were gone, and she just felt that this brother
He is even more affectionate than his biological brother as the King of Chu.
King Wuyou saw that Qi Lu had turned into a mighty commander, exuding a heroic spirit, possessing the majesty of a superior, and not angry. He was secretly approving without realizing it. When he saw Princess Xin Yue looking at Qi Lu every time, he
Lu's eyes were full of reverence for heroes. I guess the young couple must be getting along well.
King Wuyou lived in the post house. Qi Lu originally prepared a courtyard for King Wuyou, but King Wuyou said that he lived in a house, which was really empty, as if there were people coming and going in the post house.
Qi Lu prepared a separate guest room for King Wuyou in the palace. He and King Wuyou drank and talked with each other every day. Princess Xinyue often followed, and she would often ask about King Wuyou and Ying'er's past. Wuyou
The king guessed that these were probably what Qi Lu told Princess Xin Yue, who was very envious of her. She deeply regretted that King Wuyou could not bring his sister-in-law Ying'er with him when he came.
King Wuyou saw that Qi Lu sometimes drank with him until late at night and refused to go back. He insisted on sleeping with him. He felt strange in his heart. Newlyweds are so inseparable that they don't even care about brothers and sisters, but Qi Lu is
Zhinian had such deep brotherly love that he actually gave up his newlywed wife. Fortunately, Princess Xinyue respected King Wuyou very much and didn't care about it. This made King Wuyou feel a little uneasy, and he lived in Chengcheng for a short time.
On the same day, he said goodbye to Qi Lu and his wife, and transferred to Dali to go to the Yue Kingdom to meet the King of Yue.
Qi Lu also knew that King Wuyou had been fighting in the Qin State during this period, and he had not seen the prince for a long time, so he could not force him to stay, so he sent him away more than a hundred miles away before reluctantly saying goodbye.
King Wuyou took Lu Zheng through Yicheng again, met Tang Jinhu, and stayed at Tang Jinhu's house for two days before taking the road to Dali. Although northern Xinjiang is covered with ice and snow, Dali has a pleasant climate. King Wuyou first went to the palace to meet him
The King of Dali met Princess Yinping again and presented the gifts that Prince Duan asked him to bring back. King Wuyou was also familiar with the princes and ministers of Dali, and they entertained each other for two or three days.
On this day King Wuyou finally had some free time, so he took Gu Yuetian and Lu Zheng out of the post house, called for a carriage and asked the driver to drive them, and left at Juying Tower. Lu Zheng followed on horseback, and King Wuyou and Gu Yue
Sitting in the carriage, Gu Yuetian looked at King Wuyou and asked with a strange expression: "My lord, what do you want? You are not going to make trouble in Juying Tower, right? I am also a little bit worried about Zhang Yu in Juying Tower.
I heard that he is a heroic man from Dali and southern Xinjiang, and he is upright and upright."
King Ashoka didn't answer, he just smiled and looked out the window.
The name of Juying Tower in Dali is no less than that of the Dali Palace. The Juying Tower is also built with great momentum. It is connected on three sides and is three stories high. The people coming in and out of the downstairs are all princes and nobles, and there are also heroes. Your Majesty Wuyou
After getting out of the car, he told the driver to find a place to wait aside, and then he and Gu Yuetian walked in. Lu Zheng followed behind carrying a cloth bag.
A waiter who was waiting for guests downstairs looked at the guests coming and looked at them twice. Seeing the extraordinary demeanor of King Wuyou and the other three, he knew that they must be Gongsun or the descendants of our family who came from other civilizations, so he stepped forward to take care of them.
, said: "You three gentlemen, it is your first time to come to our Juying Building. I wonder if you are here to visit or to play?"
King Wuyou didn't wait for Gu Yuetian to speak, and said to the waiter: "I'm here to find your Uncle Changyu. You have a Mr. Jiang here, and he knows me."
As soon as the waiter heard that King Wuyou was looking for his own boss and that he was familiar with the steward, Jiang Da, he quickly stepped in and signaled the other waiters to call steward Jiang.
King Wuyou had just walked a few steps when he heard laughter coming from inside. Jiang Da had already taken it out quickly. He shouted: "Master Qi, hehe, I felt something bad this morning.
A happy event has come to our door. I have been waiting upstairs to watch the young master get off the car, so I quickly came down to greet him. Come on, Mr. Qi, follow me upstairs quickly. Our head of household happens to be at home, and he also admires Mr. Qi very much!
"
King Wuyou smiled at Jiang Da and followed him upstairs. The group of people attracted the attention of everyone on both sides. The manager of Juying Tower, Jiang, is also a person with high eyesight. On weekdays, except for the head of Juying Tower,
Most of the others didn't pay attention to Zhang Yu. I don't know why he was so polite to three strangers today.
King Wuyou and others followed Jiang Da up to the top floor of the main building. Jiang Da stopped outside a room, signaled King Wuyou, then walked forward and knocked on the door, and then said inside: "Master,
Mr. Qi, whom I have often mentioned to you, is here to meet you today."
Immediately, a sound of "Oh" came from inside, and then a tall man came out. He looked to be about thirty years old, with a smile on his face. He looked at the three of King Wuyou and then looked at King Wuyou.
He clasped his fists and raised his hands and said, "This is Mr. Qi, I think. I have been close friends for a long time, and today I finally get to see his true face. Come on, Mr. Qi, please come in quickly!"
