"Are the wealthy families in Shan's father's city opening their doors to surrender?"
"Wei Jiu abandoned the city and headed north?"
When receiving the military information from Zhao Guang's department in front, Zhao Tuo was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "This is normal. The main force under Wei Jiu was defeated by our army and fled in all directions. In addition, Zhao Guang pursued him all the way.
, leaving him no time to collect the defeated army, and when he ran to Shanfu, there were not many people left, so it was a wise choice to abandon the city and leave."
Hei Butt said dissatisfied: "It's a pity that he ran away because Zhao Guang was running slowly. If he could catch up faster, he would probably be able to catch Wei Jiu."
Dai Yu on the side sneered: "The soldiers under Zhao Erwubai have been traveling with our army for a long time. He has been chasing Wei Jiu so that he has no time to gather the defeated soldiers. He has already worked hard. How can we ask him to do so?"
Stop Wei Jiu."
Black Buttocks was furious: "Nai Gong is talking, how dare you, a little superior, have the right to interrupt!"
Dai Yu's mouth was full of yin and yang: "Everyone expresses his or her own opinion when discussing matters in the army. The leader of the Black Bottom 2500 uses his title to suppress others and does not allow us to speak. Do you want to have a talk in this tent? Where do you want the general to be placed?"
Black Butt opened his mouth and kept talking for a long time, but due to his limited cultural level, he couldn't find any words to refute, so he could only scream angrily.
"enough."
Zhao Tuo snorted coldly and stopped the two people from arguing.
He looked at Li Shiqi, who was smiling at the side, and asked: "Mr. Li, look at the current situation, what should we do next?"
Li Shiqi pointed to the north and spoke eloquently: "Wei Jiu has been frightened by the great victory of the army. I see that he is going north this time, and he must be heading to the land of Shanyang. It is still in the hands of the Wei army, and he can go there."
Here, regroup our forces."
"In my opinion, the military commander should seize the opportunity to pursue the victory and leave Shan's father to the guard of Zhao Er500. The military commander should personally lead the soldiers, take the tail of Wei Jiu, go north, and go straight to Shanyang, without giving Wei Jiu a chance to breathe.
time!"
"Okay! This is the best way to chase down the poor bandits with the remaining brave men!"
Zhao Tuo raised his sword eyebrows, feeling that what Li Shiqi said made sense, and turned around to issue orders to the generals.
First of all, Shejian's troops fought a bloody battle and suffered more than half of the casualties. Basically all the remaining soldiers were injured and could no longer go to the battlefield. Zhao Tuo ordered Shejian to lead his troops to camp near the battlefield for repairs, while guarding the prisoners and counting them.
Severed heads.
Counting heads to discuss military achievements is an important job for the Qin army, and someone must do it.
Then Zhao Tuo personally led the remaining nearly 3,000 soldiers, abandoned Shan's father, and went directly north to pursue Wei Jiu.
In addition, he also issued an order to Zhao Guang's troops who occupied Shanfu City, ordering them to appease the wealthy families in the city, and then dispatched 500 people to go north to join the army.
After the military order was issued, Zhao Tuo looked at the map of Wei in his hand.
Shanyang.
Isn’t this the Changyi of the future?
…
In Shanyang City, panic is spreading.
Several young people gathered in the house, grilling fish and talking to each other.
"You can see the scene of Lord Ning Ling entering the city today. Oh my god, he is a majestic young master of the Wei Kingdom. He is covered in stains and has several holes in his clothes. He must be so embarrassed.
"
Someone whispered: "Hey, I heard from the husband-in-law of my sister-in-law Qiu's clan that Lord Ningling led an army to fight against the Qin people and suffered a huge defeat. He even lost his father, so he came to Shanyang.
Take refuge.”
Others panicked and said, "What should we do? Once Lord Ningling comes, the Qin army will come sooner or later. What should we do?"
"What should we do? Just be Qin people. Haha, could it be that when the Qin army comes, we won't be allowed to go fishing in Juye Ze? Shouldn't we do what we should do? It doesn't matter whether he is the King of Wei or the King of Qin.
No matter who rules, it’s still not the same for us ordinary people.”
In the corner, a young man was eating grilled fish and talking.
Someone said angrily: "Peng Zhong, how can you talk like this? Our ancestors are all Wei people, and you are so willing to become a Qin person?"
Peng Yue said disdainfully: "What about the people of Wei? Do you want to be buried with Wei? I heard that the Qin army has been pouring water into Daliang for two months. Soon, the city of Daliang will be destroyed, and the King of Wei in the city will
He was captured by the Qin army and taken to Xianyang. As for Lord Ningling in Shanyang City, how many days do you think he can escape from the Qin army?"
Everyone was silent. Not only the wise men in the world, but also ordinary people like them could see clearly that the Wei State would inevitably perish.
Now that Peng Yue had spoken out, everyone could only shake their heads and sigh.
Peng Yue tore off a piece of fish meat and looked out the window in the direction of Shanyang Ling's mansion. He thought to himself: "Most of the Wei Kingdom has been occupied by the Qin army, and there are only a few scattered cities left. Shanyang is a dead place. Ning
Lord Ling, do you really want to stick here? If it were me, I would lead my troops to abandon the city and enter Juyeze in the north, use the terrain advantage to fight guerrillas with the Qin people, and then sit back and watch the situation. If Qi, Chu
If we can help, there may be hope of restoring the country."
Thinking of this, Peng Yue shook his head again and said: "But this is also a fantasy. The demise of Wei is a foregone conclusion and no one can save it."
"Wei is going to fall."
Wei Jiu muttered to himself, slumped on the couch, and stared above blankly.
There was a sound of footsteps, and Hou Shu strode into the house and shouted: "Sir, there are still 800 soldiers in Shanyang City. With the more than 1,000 people we brought, we can make up another 2,000 soldiers."
Soldiers! If we recruit the young men in the city, we might be able to have three or four thousand usable soldiers!"
At this point, Hou Shu became confident again and suggested: "These are three to four thousand people. The vanguard of the Qin army was ambushed by us and suffered heavy casualties. The remaining hundreds of people were unable to go to the battlefield. In addition, the Qin army
We also need to divide our troops to garrison Shanfu. We can only attack Shanyang City with more than 3,000 people. Our numbers are equal and we have the advantage of city defense. The Qin army will definitely not be able to defeat it. In this case, there is still hope."
Listening to the advice given by his counselors, Wei Jiu couldn't lift his spirits at all.
"Three or four thousand men? Six thousand soldiers ambushed them, and they were defeated in one battle. Even Zhu Piao died. What's the use of these three or four thousand men?" Wei Jiu murmured.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hearing this, Hou Shu said awkwardly: "This is the moment and the other is the moment. Don't be discouraged, sir."
Wei Jiu ignored him.
At this time, a Wei army general came quickly from outside the door.
"Sir, the cavalry we sent out discovered the Qin army, and they have reached five miles outside the city."
"What? How could the Qin army be so fast!" Hou Shu's face was filled with shock.
When Wei Jiu heard these words, his eyelids moved and he said to himself: "Qin Jun... what a Qin Jun."
…
"Sir, do you really want to enter the city?"
Zhao Tuo looked at Li Shiqi with surprise.
Three thousand troops under his command have arrived at the foot of Shanyang City. As the flags fluttered, he could even see the panic expressions of the guards on the city wall.
If we attack by force, this city will definitely be captured.
But before attacking the city, Li Shiqi took the initiative to ask for orders and wanted to enter the city to persuade Wei Jiu to surrender.
Lishi pointed at Shanyang City not far away.
"With the troops waiting for a great victory, we should attack this weak city and conquer it in a single battle. However, if this happens, more soldiers will inevitably die and their bones will be buried here. Why not let me enter the city? If you can rely on the words of your mouth,
When it comes to surrendering Wei Jiu, it is exactly what the art of war says about subduing the enemy without fighting. If it succeeds, the military commander will get full credit and the soldiers will be saved. If it fails, the most they can do is lose Li Shi's life.
, this is great profit.”
At this point, Li Shiqi burst into laughter. He stretched out his hand and pointed at the generals, then pointed at himself, and shouted: "Of course, the biggest reason is that I want to make meritorious deeds. In the previous battle, all the generals had
The meritorious deeds are all in vain, but if I don’t take advantage of them to make meritorious deeds, I won’t have another chance after this battle. Isn’t my trip here in vain, and I ask the military commander to do it for me.”
"You are a drunkard. You are crazy about making meritorious deeds. I am not afraid that Wei Jiu will kill you in a rage." Hei Butt mumbled from the side.
Zhao Tuo took a deep look at Li Shiqi and saw that although he looked crazy, his eyes were clear and he was sure of his future, so he said, "Since you want to go, sir, let's go."
"Wei, I will definitely not disappoint the military commander."
Li Shiqi laughed loudly and walked towards Shanyang City not far away.
…
"Sir, do you want to see the envoy of the Qin Army?"
Hou Shu's face was full of surprise.
Wei Jiu ignored him and asked people to bring in the envoys of the Qin army who were outside the city.
"I, Chen Liuli, ate it and met Lord Ningling."
The envoy of the Qin army was a middle-aged scribe who came up to Wei Jiu and saluted him.
"Are you from Wei? Why are you lobbying for the Qin army?" Hou Shu was furious when he heard the other party's identity.
Wei Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly but did not stop him. Instead, he observed the envoy of the Qin Army and looked at the headdress on his head that represented the title of the Qin Kingdom.
Li Shiqi laughed and said, "Because I want to save countless lives in Shanyang City, I came here for the Qin Army."
"Absurd, if this is the case, then your Qin army can retreat, and the lives of the people of Shanyang will be safe!" Hou Shu sneered again and again.
Li Shiqi ignored him, but looked at Wei Jiu, and said calmly: "I don't want to have a quarrel, nor do I talk empty words. I only talk about the situation at hand. Today, the Qin army is approaching the city. The young master thinks that in order to
Soldiers, can they resist?"
Hou Shu sneered and said: "The Wei people in my city are eager to fight to the death with the Qin people. The young master can summon three or four thousand strong men with just a call. With the help of city defense, how can those people outside your city capture this city?"

"Can't resist." Wei Jiu said calmly.
Hou Shu was stunned, his face twitching.
Li Shiqi asked: "Since we can't resist, does the young master still have a way out?"
A way out?
Wei Jiu closed his eyes and his body trembled slightly.
To the south of Shanyang is the newly abandoned Shanfu, to the west is Taoqiu, which has long been occupied by the Qin army, to the north is the endless Juye Ze, and to the east are the countries of Qi and Chu.
Looking around, there was no Wei land around for Wei Jiu to live in.
Where to escape?
After leaving Qi, Chu will remain alive?
The State of Chu has just made a peace treaty with the King of Qin, but he may not accept it.
Qi has always served Qin, let alone help him.
Not to mention, Wei Jiu was already tired.
He raised troops from Ningling and led more than 10,000 troops to the north to rescue Daliang. In a blink of an eye, he was defeated by Wang Ben and fled to Suiyang in embarrassment.
When the Qin army went south, Suiyang was defeated in a battle, and he fled to Shanfu.
Outside Shan's father's city, he led his army in an ambush. As a result, he was defeated and had to flee north to Shanyang in a hurry.
Where can he escape now?
Wei Jiu, is he going to run away like this for the rest of his life?
Once the beam is broken, the Wei State is considered dead, and all the Wei family's ancestral lands fall into the hands of the Qin people. What's the point of escaping again?
Wei Jiu said bitterly: "There is no way out."
"The destruction of Wei by Qin has become a foregone conclusion, and all the wise men in the world know this trend. The prince has neither the power to resist nor the way to retreat, so why should he use Shanyang City to resist stubbornly? Isn't this a useless effort and a surrender in vain?
The soldiers and civilians in the city died in vain. The young master has a reputation of being benevolent and righteous, generous and loving, but today he does such a useless thing, which is both unwise and unkind!"
The smile on Li Shiqi's lips became thicker and thicker, and his voice became louder and louder: "If the young master had not surrendered to Qin to present the city, firstly, the lives of everyone in Shanyang would have been saved, and the reputation of the young master would have been benevolent and righteous. Secondly, the young master would have been useful and continued to work in the Wei Dynasty."
His bloodline!"
Hou Shu was furious: "How dare Shu Zi'an bully my young master!"
Wei Jiu hesitated for a moment, then looked up to the sky and sighed: "I, Wei Jiu, will not be able to inherit the legacy of Master Xinling after all! Since I cannot protect the country and protect the ancestral temple, why should I let the people of Shanyang die for me today? I, Wei Jiu, am willing to surrender."
"
After hearing this, Hou Shu beat his chest and cried loudly: "Young Master! Young Master! Why did you surrender! We can still fight for the Young Master!"
Li Shiqi smiled and held her hands.
"The gentleman is benevolent and righteous."
It's midday.
The news that Lord Ningling was about to surrender had spread throughout the city. Countless people cried and shouted, while countless others breathed a sigh of relief, thankful to have saved their lives.
The gates of Shanyang City opened.
Lord Ningling of Wei State, Wei Jiu.
Dressed in plain clothes, he walked out on his knees with a group of counselors and generals under his command who were crying with jealousy.
In the solemn Qin army formation outside the city, a chariot roared towards the city, spraying smoke and dust all over the sky.
Standing on the stopped chariot was a handsome young Qin general wearing a crown on his head.
He looked over.
"Wei Jiu, Lord of Ningling in the Kingdom of Wei, is willing to surrender to the army, and please forgive me."
Wei Jiu murmured to himself and kowtowed to General Qin, a young man in the car who was much younger than him.
Behind him, all the generals and officials of Wei State also bowed their heads.
Zhao Tuo nodded, still a little confused as he stood in the car.
Maybe even he didn't expect that the noble son of a country would be the king of a place.
One day he would kneel in front of him, kowtow to himself and beg for surrender.
"The changes between Zhou and Qin are indeed unprecedented changes in ancient and modern times. Thousands of years of blood cannot compete with military merit. No matter how noble a prince is, he will be trampled under the feet of Qin generals."
Zhao Tuo smiled, got out of the car and walked towards Wei Jiu.
At this moment, on the city wall where the guards have been removed.
Peng Yue lay on the wall, watching the shocking scene below the city.
He whispered: "A real man, you should be like this!"
