Yang Duanhe has always been the most concerned about news within Qi State.
After Major General Wang Bi defeated Daliang City in Wei State, most of the rest was his own doing. He led his army to capture the rest of Wei State.
This is true whether it is the land of Surabaya or the land east of the Wei River.
When Qin and Chu were at war, they were seeking the land of Qi, and a hundred thousand troops were stationed at the border, ready for war at any time.
Because Qi State must be included in the map control no matter what.
The Qin army marched eastward out of Han Valley and pacified the other states, leaving Qi alone.
Now, the final moment has finally come.
More than 200,000 troops are trapped in Linzi, waiting for the final decision!
"That's right!"
Wang Ben nodded.
This is the safest method. No matter what happens in Linzi, they can firmly bring Linzi under control.
"Looking down from below, with the changes that have happened in Zi in the past month, those old people from various countries will not be asked to help by the King of Qi."
"On the contrary, I will be very vigilant."
"Otherwise, Tiandan would not be removed and replaced with Tiantan."
"So, Qian Hong thought that we can dispatch the army when Shen Shi is here today, slowly approach Linzi, and let Linzi make the final decision."
"Waiting for the chaos in Linzi, we can decide the final outcome."
Bai Qianhong also agrees.
Chaos in Linzi has become inevitable, and General Yang is worried that the King of Qi will use the remaining power of other countries.
That is absolutely impossible.
When the Five Kingdoms attacked Qin, Qi would never forget it.
For decades, Qi's natural choice was deeply wary of other countries and would not take risks at all.
"Shen Shi sent out an army to force Linzi to make a decision?"
"This strategy...what do you think?"
When Yang Duanhe heard this, he smiled slightly.
Previously, I was relatively safe, but Bai Qianhong's words were safe with a hint of domineering.
Take the opportunity to take the initiative in your own hands, not Linzi itself.
Previously, the risk was very high.
Now, the risk doesn't matter.
"General."
"The general thinks that there is nothing wrong with it. Linzi is now besieged by our army, and we can only defend it, regardless of whether the power of the other countries and the power of Qi are combined."
"It won't affect the overall situation."
"First send a large army to approach Linzi. No matter how large or small the army is, there will definitely be panic in Linzi, and the families inside and outside will inevitably coordinate."
"Fighters can come out, Linzi can land, and Qi can be destroyed!"
Not far away from Wang Ben, Lin Feng held his hand and said something.
The current situation is actually under their complete control. The Qin army can fight however they want. Instead of doing this, it is best to capture Qi as soon as possible.
If it wasn't for the sake of stability, he would have led his troops to attack Linzi long ago.
However, in comparison, it would be better for the land of Qilu to remain stable and avoid too many wars.
Because this will also be the land of Da Qin.
He will soon be a part of Da Qin.
"You can send 50,000 troops first to put pressure on them."
Wang Ben smiled.
"Hahaha, okay!"
"That's what I say."
Yang Duanhe placed one hand on the wooden table in front of him and laughed endlessly.
…
…
"It's the Qin Army!"
"They're coming!"
"No, it's the Qin Army!"
"..."
More than 300,000 soldiers of the Qi State were deployed in several lines of defense in Tiandan before, thinking that Linzi was stable and defended layer by layer. Each layer of defense had more than 50,000 people.
Stationed at important checkpoints and patrolled back and forth.
In the middle of the hour, the earth suddenly trembled. The horses panicked and felt something in their hearts. They looked to the west and suddenly a black flag fluttered in the wind.
In an instant, the guarding Qi soldiers were frightened and shouted quickly.
"It's the Qin Army!"
"No, leave quickly!"
There were also battles with the Qin army.
The consequences of the confrontation are also very simple, that is, they are defeated in one battle and are no match for the Qin army. At present, among the Shandong countries, only Qi is left.
As a soldier of Qi State, he naturally hopes to win.
However, can it really be won?
not necessarily.
The Qin army could even defeat the four to five million Chu army, let alone them?
Not to mention, the general had previously issued an order that if the Qin army attacked and killed them, they should not fight, but should fight and retreat to Linzi.
"These Qi soldiers don't even have the courage to fight?"
"Lin, it seems that Qi is really doomed."
The generals met, Shi Zhuang, and Lin Feng also met.
Many years ago, two farm men who came out of Xiahe Village, Hanzhong County, experienced the teachings of the National Protectorate Academy, and now they have gradually become the middle-level members of the Qin Army.
Holding a telescope in hand to watch the Qi soldiers fleeing without fighting, Shi Zhuang laughed loudly. At the same time, he looked at Lin beside him and sighed.
"Report!"
"General, all the Qi army has fled, leaving behind enough food, grass, baggage, weapons and armor, and thousands of horses for an army of 50,000 to last for a month."
Not long after, the herald came forward to make statistics.
"Hahaha, Qi State is really rich in treasury."
"Fifty thousand people need a month's worth of food, grass and baggage. It's a pity that they don't have a month left."
"Reorganize the time it takes to burn an incense stick and keep pushing forward!"
Shi Zhuang laughed again.
It is said that among the countries in Shandong, Qi's treasury is the most abundant. Looking at it today, it is indeed the case. Even the military barracks guarding outside the city have such accumulation.
Not to mention inside Linzi City.
According to what the general said, there is no need to advance directly to Linzi, just advance slowly.
"Here!"
"..."
Immediately, the vanguard's 50,000-strong army stopped here briefly to collect the things left by the Qi soldiers before continuing to march.
…
…
"Don't close the city gate, I haven't entered the city yet."
"My home is in Linzi North City."
"Don't close the city gate!"
"..."
News came from the fast horse that the Qin army, tens of thousands strong, was approaching Linzi.
In an instant, the entire Linzi exploded like water pouring into a frying pan.
Tian Tan personally ordered to quickly close all the city gates and gather soldiers for defense.
However, it was not the time of Youshi, so it was not time to close the city gate, not to mention that there were still many people from Linzi outside.
As for those old people from all over the world who want to enter the city, it is impossible to do so without any clear evidence such as bodyguards.
Seeing that the city gate was about to close, many people from Linzi who were still outside the city swarmed in, and from time to time there were many people from various countries and old families who wanted to take advantage of the chaos.
At this moment, they are all disguised as Linzi civilians. As long as they take advantage of the chaos and enter Linzi, someone will help them and there will be no big problems.
Then, they went together to the treasury in Linzi City to get back their own valuables and add to the food and supplies for the righteous army.
"After half a stick of incense, the city gate must be closed!"
The defenders of the city gave the order again and looked at the crowds of people entering the city. It was too late to identify their identities at this moment.
I had no choice but to give this order.
Hearing this, the people crowded in front of the city gate became even more excited.
"You finally came in."
"Let's go, Linzi is in chaos now, it's time to take back our belongings and equipment."
In front of each city gate, there were groups of old people who had already entered the city to receive them. They gathered together and went directly to their destination without hesitation.
"Master Wei Bao, what should I do?"
"Sure enough, what happens next when King Qi is furious?"
Some feel uneasy in their hearts.
"It doesn't matter."
"Those things belong to us, not to mention those people made it very clear at the beginning that they were just keeping them for us."
"Now they have no reason to object."
"Linzi is in crisis now. We must have our own strength and our own wealth."
Wei Bao has been in Linzi for a long time.
The Wei soldiers who followed him at the beginning were also dispersed and arranged by him inside and outside Linzi. As long as he raised his arms and called out, someone would respond.
But... if you want to resist Qin, it is absolutely impossible without enough food, grass and baggage.
Now they will have it.
"Those from Zhao and South Korea are also heading there."
Not because of the dazzling costumes, but just like the common people who were in chaos in the city, fleeing east and west, and after a while, they arrived in front of Linzi's treasury.
They have already inquired for good news.
Previously, Qi State collected their treasures and placed them in this place.
It contains not only their belongings, but also the belongings of many older families.
The wealth of each old family member is more than five thousand gold, and it is estimated that there are hundreds of thousands, or even more than one million gold accumulated in it.
"Sir, there are quite a few people guarding the treasury."
When they came to the location of the treasury, they looked at the people patrolling in front of the treasury door, and everyone felt uneasy. There were quite a few guards.
"It doesn't matter, I'll have a countermeasure already."
"Just separate a group of people and lure those people away."
"Luo'er, you lead hundreds of thousands of people to pretend to attack the Treasury. When the fight breaks out, you leave. Those people will definitely hunt you down."
Wei Bao called a man beside him and gave instructions.
"Yes, sir."
It had been discussed long ago without any hesitation.
A small group of soldiers rushed directly to the location of the treasury.
"Who?"
"Get out of here quickly!"
"..."
"..."
Those who were guarding the treasury had not even said a few words before they were faced with swords approaching them. In this case, it goes without saying.
In an instant, a melee broke out in front of the treasury door, and the streets became even more chaotic.
Coupled with the news that the Qin army was approaching outside the city, there was no safe place anywhere in Linzi.
"Your Majesty, the Qin army is attacking and it is unstoppable."
"Linzi is really difficult to defend."
"At present, the only way is to surrender to Qin to protect the ancestral temple."
In the palace hall of King Qi's city, several important ministers and veterans of the royal family were still trying to persuade King Qi to build it, but they really... couldn't refuse any more.
"Your Majesty, I have indeed surrendered to Qin."
"The ancestral temple can be protected."
"Linzi has no worries."
"Qilu is safe."
"Your Majesty, for the sake of the millions of people in Qilu, it is safe to surrender to Qin."
Another person gave advice.
"Your Majesty, we have no fear of overpowering Qin. However, if we overpower Qin, we will not leave Qi to occupy Qilu."
"..."
"Report!"
"Your Majesty, the Qin army is attacking, Linzi is in chaos, the city is in chaos, and some people are taking advantage of the situation to attack the treasury."
"..."
"Immediately dispatch two thousand royal city guards to arrest the rebels."
"Here!"
Inside the palace hall, there was silence for a while, and then it returned to the previous state of persuading people to surrender.
As long as the king surrenders to Qin, both the king and Linzi can be preserved.
Not only can the king's ancestral temple be preserved, but their family inheritance can also be maintained. In this case, why not surrender to Qin?
At that time, Linzi City was joined by two thousand Royal City Guards, plus a subsequent thousand soldiers and horses to assist.
Before the Youshi period passed, the chaos in the city was finally calmed down.
"hateful!"
"hateful!"
"If the King of Qi doesn't let me wait for a better life, Linzi will not have a better life. The Qin army is already outside the city, and the Qi State will undoubtedly perish."
"Since the treasures in the treasury are not returned to us, let's look for them elsewhere!"
"Linzi is so big, there will always be something to gain."
