The sky was dark, but the city of Jimo was full of beacon fires, illuminating this big city very brightly.

The people in the city, their homes are closed, and their hearts are nothing but fear or fear.

The Yan army's commander, Le Jian, did not leave the castle tower, and commanded the battles in the city from above.

Under the castle tower, the scouts shuttled back and forth, reporting on the battle situation in the city.

"Newspaper. General, General Shi Yong has already led his troops to occupy the south gate and is advancing towards the doctor's residence. ”

"General Qiyu, the Fifth Army has taken control of the East Gate and is engaged in street battles with the Qi Army."

"Newspaper. General, the Ninth Army occupied the West Gate ......"

“……”

Lejian looked at the bright moon in the sky, sighed, and said to Bo Wang, the deputy general who returned to his side:

"I think this is the case, I'm afraid it's going to be another night."

Bo Wang looked at Jimo City, which was illuminated by the firelight, nodded and said:

"General, our army has basically controlled Modu, and there is no major problem at present. As long as we sweep away the recalcitrant enemy forces in the city and then move south to occupy Langya City, our army can complete the task of sending troops this time. ”

As the sky brightened, the sound of fighting in the city gradually subsided.

Only the doctor's mansion where Tian Lie lives in the city has not been completely captured.

The two of them, Le Jian and Bo Wang, also took a little rest.

Early in the morning, Rakuma wiped his face from the castle tower and walked out.

Said to Bo Wang, who came forward: "What is the situation in the city?" ”

Bo Wang reported to Le Jianyu: "General Qiyu, except for Tian Lie's doctor's residence, the rest of the city is basically swept away, and the rest are still a little sporadically resistant, and our army has occupied the entire Modu. ”

"Of the 40,000 Qi troops guarding Modu, more than 26,000 of them were captured and surrendered to our army. Now, except for the more than 1,000 Qi troops in Tian Lie's official residence, the others have been annihilated by our army. ”

"What about our casualties?" Rakuma asked.

"General, as soon as our army started the war, the total casualties under Jimo City were probably more than 7,000 people. However, more than 3,000 people were cured and returned to the battlefield. ”

Lejian pondered for a moment, and said to Bo Wang:

"General Bo, you and I will go to Tian Lie's mansion and give this Tian Lie one last chance!"

"No."

Tian Lie's doctor's residence has been surrounded by the Yan Legion, and internal and external information has been cut off.

At this time, there was no need to report to know that Jimo City had fallen into the hands of the Yan army.

In the meeting hall, Jimo Doctor Tian Lie, because he didn't close his eyes for a day and a night, his eyes were bloodshot.

The more than 1,000 Qi troops in Tian Lie's official residence are all Tian Lie's personal guards, and they can be said to be the descendants of the lineage.

Although they knew that they were facing a dead end, everyone still held weapons and resisted the Yan army very stubbornly.

There was a commotion outside, and a personal guard entered the chamber and reported to Tian Lieyu:

"General, General Li was shot by an arrow, I'm afraid it won't work."

Tian Lie stood up abruptly and asked loudly, "What?" Quick, take me over and have a look. ”

The General Li mentioned in the mouth of this personal guard is Tian Lie's deputy general.

He has always been obedient to Tian Lie and loyal.

As soon as the words fell, I saw several guards using a door panel, carrying Tian Lie's lieutenant in, with arrows stuck in his chest.

At this time, you can't pull out the arrow. Otherwise, Tian Lie's lieutenant will die immediately.

The deputy general saw Tian Lie come to his side and stretched out his right hand.

Seeing this, Tian Lie hurriedly held the right hand stretched out by his adjutant general with both hands, and said softly: "General Li ......"

Tian Lie's lieutenant looked at Tian Lie and struggled:

"Will ...... General, last general...... The end is coming. You want...... You have to hurry...... Breakout ......"

Before he finished speaking, he closed his eyes.

Tian Lie was full of grief, and after a long while, he ordered: "General Li, carry ...... Let's get it out. ”

"No."

The sky is getting brighter and brighter, but there are more and more Yan troops on the periphery of Tian Lie's mansion.

Tian Lie and his more than 1,000 personal guards wanted to break through again, it was no longer possible.

However, Tian Lie never thought of breaking through. As soon as the city of Momo was broken, his heart was completely dead.

In Tian Lie's official residence, he faintly heard the sound of Yan Jun's order outside the mansion.

"The general has an order. Now the armies can organize the people to clean up the battlefield and put out the fire. All officers and men of our army must strictly abide by military discipline. Do not disturb the people, do not molest the adulterer, and do not plunder any property. Those who disobey will be beheaded. ”

Lejian's deputy general Bo Wang, whether in Liaodong, or in Buyeo, Jiguo and other places, is very experienced in accepting surrender and appeasing the people. After obtaining the permission of the main general, this order was given.

Lejian and Bo Wang came to Tian Lie's official residence and sent a major to persuade Tian Lie to surrender.

After receiving permission, the door of Tian Lie's official residence slowly opened.

After the major entered, he saw that Tian Lie's guards were all covered in blood, and many of them even wore their hair scattered, and there were still blood stains on their wounds. But all of them were rebellious, and they were not afraid of the many Yan troops outside the official residence.

The major secretly praised in his heart: "If you are a strong army!" ”

Walking into the council hall, the major clenched his fists and bowed, neither humble nor arrogant: "See the general." ”

Tian Lie looked at this major of the Yan Army and sneered:

"Chang Guojun sent you in to meet the general, what do you want to tell the general?"

This Yan Jun Major raised his head and said to Tian Lieyan:

"General, Chang Guojun said that General Tian loves the people in Modu and governs well. Not only in the Qi country, but also in my Yan country, he is famous, and he is a hero in the world. ”

"Now, the Central Plains is in turmoil, the Son of Heaven is in trouble, and the princes are constantly fighting. You and I are fighting each other, and we are each our own master. General, you have lost your ink capital, but you also do your best. Why don't you leave a useful body to assist my king. ”

Tian Lie laughed and said to the Yan Army Major who came in: "What if the general doesn't listen? ”

Hearing this, this major of the Yan Army clenched his fists and continued to say to Tian Lie:

"General, Chang Guojun also said that if the general is not willing to become an official again, he can disarm and return to the field, leave with his family and belongings, and enjoy his old age in peace. If you want to do your best for the world that day, the king of Changguo will play my king and give a reward. ”

After listening to the major's words, Tian Lie shook his head.

Facing the direction of Linzi, he bowed a few times with his fists, and said to this Yanjun major: "You go back and tell the king of Changguo, just say that I, Tian Lie, only want to assist my king in this life, even if the sword and axe are added, it is difficult to move what Tian Lie wishes in his heart." ”

"Qi and Yan are feuds, my great-grandfather and grandfather both died at the hands of your Yan army. If you want me Tian Lie to surrender to your Yan Kingdom, is it possible? Now, don't say anything. Just send troops in, I, Tian Lie, would rather die than give in. ”

This Major Yan Jun looked at Tian Lie for a while, and no longer persuaded him.

He bowed to Tian Lie with his fists in his fists, and turned around.

After listening to the report of this major of the Yan Army, Le Jian sneered a few times and said:

"Since Tian Lie wants to die rather than give in, my Yan Army will fulfill him."

Then he ordered: "Someone, use catapults and hand fire mines to break this mansion for me." After attacking, he killed all the people inside, and left not a single one. ”

The soldiers of the Yan Army outside Tian Lie's official residence agreed in unison.

With a few loud bangs, the gate of Tian Lie's mansion was blasted by the Yan army's hand fire and thunder, and the Yan army rushed in.

In the third year of Yan Xiaocheng's reign (255 B.C.), April 17.

Jimo City, the eastern capital of Qi, which had high hopes from all over the Qi State, was broken by the Yan army.

Jimo Doctor Tian Lie, swore not to surrender.

In the official residence, he led more than 1,000 of his own personal guards to fight bloodily with the Yan army, and finally all of them were killed.
