The East Road army led by Jun Lejian of Changguo after occupying Jimo City, the eastern capital of Qi State.

After consulting with the deputy general Bo Wang and the Zhongyan army, he immediately sent two partial divisions, each with the strength of one army.

All the way, the Second Army of the Navy led by Shi Kang and Zhang Tian crossed the Mo River in the south of Jimo City from east to west, and marched to the southern end of Jimo City, such as Jicheng City, Langya City, Buqi and other places.

On the other hand, the Ninth Army, led by General Shi Yong, went west to occupy the city of Dongwu and even many cities on the Great Wall in southern Qi.

The First Army of the Navy led by Li Min of the Jimo City Navy was stationed in separate forces.

Le Jian and his deputy general Bo Wang led the Fifth Army and the Seventh Army from Jimo City to the northwest of Jiegen (now southeast of Gaomi, Shandong) and Chunyucheng (now northeast of Anqiu City, Shandong) and other places.

On April 19, Lejian and Bo Wang led their troops to attack Jiegen Castle, and the defenders of Jiegen Castle were killed in battle.

On April 22, the army of the East Road advanced to Chunyu City again, and the Chunyu City Defender opened the door and surrendered to the Yan army.

On April 27, Lejian led a large army to occupy Anping City (now ten miles east of Linzi, Zibo City, Shandong) in the east of Linzi, the capital of Qi, and then advanced to Linzi, the capital of Qi.

On April 29, the South Road Army led by Wang Shi and the East Road Army led by Le Jian joined forces with Linzi City.

There were as many as 200,000 troops on both sides, gathered in Linzi.

The defenders of Linzi, the capital of Qi, can be said to be an empty city compared to the Yan army.

Linzi, the capital of Qi State, has historical origins.

For more than 700 years, whether it is Jiang surnamed Qi or Tian surnamed Qi, Linzi is the capital of Qi.

Linzi was originally called Yingqiu, and the Western Zhou Dynasty was crowned by the Taigong Lu Shang (reigned 1045 BC - 1015 BC) in Qi and established the Qi State of the Zhou Dynasty. Because the west is based on the water (that is, the mud river today), and the east is adjacent to the Zi River, so Jiang Taigong's camp hill is Linzi.

Linzi City is a big city in this era, second only to Wuyang City, the capital of Yan State, and the two idioms in Ji Kang's previous life, "sweating like rain" and "rubbing shoulders", are to describe the population situation of Linzi City, the capital of Qi.

On 2 May, Yan Wang Ji Kang, accompanied by a division of palace guards led by Tian Guangsuo and a reserve army led by Lieutenant General An Minsuo, came to Linzi City.

Changguo Junlejian, General Wang Shi, General Wu Yangjing, Bo Wang and many other Yan generals went out of the camp to welcome Ji Kang.

Waiting for Ji Kang's car to arrive, Lejian, Wang Shi and other Yan army generals knelt on one knee together.

He shouted, "Worship my king." ”

The door of the carriage opened, and the young king stepped out of the carriage.

Looking at the many generals of the Yan Army, he said slowly: "The generals are flat." ”

"Thank you, my king."

Ji Kang was at the gate of the Yan army camp and looked towards the camp.

I saw the Yan army camp that stretched for more than ten miles, with flags flying and orderly.

The military system of the Yan army at this time was very complete and the requirements were particularly strict.

One class, one tent, one regiment, one camp, between the camps, neat.

Looking at the camp in front of him, Ji Kang felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart, and his heart was agitated.

This is my army, and this is my greatest reliance in this era.

Changguo Junlejian and General Wang Shi and other Yan generals stepped forward and hugged their fists together and said to Ji Kang:

"Please invite my king to enter the camp of our army."

Ji Kang waved his hand and instructed Tian Guang, the commander of the palace guards beside him, to command:

"Bring me in a chariot."

"No." Tian Guang hurriedly responded.

After Tian Guang personally drove a chariot over, Ji Kang stretched out his hands to the many Yan army generals such as Le Jian and Wang Shi who greeted him in front of him, slowly closed them, and then bowed deeply.

"The generals have been fighting for more than a month, and they have worked hard. The widow is polite here. ”

Changguo Junle, the general Wang Shi and other Yan generals, seeing this, all of them knelt on the ground at once.

"The King's ......"

All the generals trembled with excitement, and they didn't know what to say.

Ji Kang stepped forward and helped Le Jian and Wang Shi in front of him personally.

He said to the rest of the generals kneeling on the ground: "Generals, all of them are flat. You deserve it. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the generals stood up, Ji Kang held the music room with his left hand and pulled Wang Shi with his right hand.

brought the two of them to the chariot that Tian Guang personally controlled.

Let go of the two, stretch out his right hand, and say to the two: "Please get into the car with the two generals." ”

Le Jian and Wang Shi already know what Ji Kang is going to do.

But this is the king's order, and it has to be obeyed.

The two of them could only bow deeply to Ji Kang again and boarded the chariot one after another.

Ji Kang came to the war horse in front of the chariot, stretched out his hand to lead the chariot carrying Le Jian and Wang Shi, and walked towards the Yan army camp.

This is the king's greatest praise for his own generals, and it is also the greatest respect for the soldiers of the Yan army who went to the Qi country this time.

The Yan soldiers on both sides of the road were all excited to tears.

After Ji Kang entered the Yan army camp, the soldiers of the Yan army on both sides knelt on one knee in the place where the car passed.

They shouted in unison: "I am King Wannian!" Ten thousand years of Yanguo! ”

"I am the king of ten thousand years! Ten thousand years of Yanguo! ”

“……”

The voice of more than 200,000 troops soared into the sky.

The soldiers of the Qi army in Linzi City, and even the people, heard it clearly.

Shangqing Zhouzi, who was on the city wall, heard this voice and said to the people beside him:

"Yan Wangkang is here."

In the Yan army camp, in the tent of the Chinese army, Ji Kang came to the main seat and sat down.

Slowly swept over the people in the tent with his eyes, and saw that Lejian, Wang Shi and other generals were wearing armor, and Han Fei, Ju Wu, Liao Shan and others who came with him were wearing splendid robes. Whether it is a military general or a civil servant, everyone is in good spirits.

Liao Shan, the minister of the Ministry of Rites and the doctor, has been sent to Qi many times and is very familiar with the situation of Qi State.

Therefore, when Ji Kang came to Qi this time, he specially ordered Liao Shan to come with him.

Ji Kang looked at everyone and said with a smile:

"My army is in Qidu, and Linzi is just around the corner. But the widow doesn't want to kill too much, so he can send people into the city to persuade Qi Wangjian to return to my Yan country. If it does not fall, it is not too late to attack the city. Ladies and gentlemen, who is willing to go to Linzi City to persuade the King of Qi to surrender? ”

Minister of Rites Doctor Liao Shan walked out and bowed deeply to Ji Kang:

"King Qi, Weichen has sent envoys to Qi several times. He is familiar with all the ministers of the Qi court, and has also talked with Qi Wang Jianshen. The minister is willing to follow the edict of my king and go to persuade the king of Qi to surrender and surrender to my king. ”

Ji Kang nodded, and for some reason, he suddenly remembered a passage from his previous life:

"Wang Jian lost the country, and the pines and cypresses are blue. Songye Boye? Housing and construction of the common people? ”

In Ji Kang's previous life, King Yingzheng of Qin tricked King Jian of Qi into surrendering to Qin and promised to give him a fief of 500 li.

As a result, after Qi Wangjian surrendered to Qin, Qin Wangying lost his words and placed Qi Wangjian in a remote common land, living among deserted pine trees and cypress trees, and did not let people supply Qi Wangjian with food, and Qi Wangjian was finally starved to death.

When the people of Qidi heard about it, they were all indignant.

Qin died after two generations, isn't it for nothing?

Thinking of this, Ji Kang sighed, and said to the eldest husband Liao Shan: "Liao Qing, after you go to Linzi, you can tell Qi Wangjian." As long as he is willing to return to my Yan Kingdom, the widow will treat him well. Thou shalt tell him about his family and his property, and the widow will allow him to keep it. ”

"Also, didn't you promise to bring a set of utensils for Hou Sheng last time? I Yan Guo must not lose my words, the widow has prepared it for you, you can go to see Housheng first, and give him this set of utensils. ”

The eldest husband, Liao Shan, looked at Ji Kang and found that his own king was smiling and looking at him.

Liao Shan immediately understood his king's thoughts, bowed down and said, "The minister obeys the edict." ”
