Outside the camp.

Tang Mo looked at Qi Ying curiously, Chu Jun had already scolded outside for half an hour. As a result, except for some movement in the Qi camp when he first started scolding, the Qi camp returned to calm then, as if it was not the Qi people who were scolded by the Chu army.

Seeing that the scolding was useless, Tang Mo nodded and sighed: "Although Tian Jia is not very famous, he can be indifferent to the scolding, and he can't even look at it, which shows that Tian Jia is at least a little bit more generous." ”

Hearing this, Tang Lin asked, "General, since the strategy of scolding is useless, do we make the next move?" ”

Tang Mo shook his head and said, "Don't worry, you have to eat the meal one bite at a time, and you have to take it step by step." Moreover, there was no movement in the Qi army, and it did not mean that there was no movement. ”

"Order, the scout's surveillance range has been expanded from thirty miles to fifty miles, beware of the Qi army's fraud."

"Order, strengthen the surveillance of the Qi battalion at night, so as not to secretly transfer troops of the Qi army."

Tang Lin was stunned for a moment, and hesitated: "The general suspects that Tian Jia made a move last night, and secretly mobilized the army to ambush around?" ”

"I don't rule it out." Tang Yu nodded.

Tang Lin was taken aback, and immediately arched his hand and said, "It's the general, the last general will go to give the order." ”

Another day passed.

On the third day, after Tang Wu led the Chu army to arrive outside the Qi camp, he did not stop three miles away, but advanced one mile, stopped two miles away, and then waited for the battle and sent people to scold.

As a result, the Qi army still did not come out.

Night.

Tang Mo led the army back to the camp, and Zhong Lijun said to Tang Wu happily: "Si is defeated, the news from the king that the ambush against the Qi army will all be ready tonight, just wait for the Qi army to enter the urn." ”

Tang Wu's spirits perked up when he heard this, and he was overjoyed: "Okay, then I will also worry about the Qi army coming out to fight." ”

Zhong Lijun also smiled with relief: "There is no need to worry about the Qi army taking the opportunity to seize the camp." ”

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Day 4.

Tang Yu still led the 30,000 Chu army straight to the Qi camp, this time, it was further than yesterday, and he didn't order to stop until the Qi camp was a mile and a half away.

The deputy general Tang Lin followed Tang Yu's side and said in a panic: "General, are we too close to the Qi camp." At such a distance, if the Qi army camps out from the west to engage us, entangles us, and then detours our flanks or behind us from the north and south, we are afraid that we will be surrounded by the Qi army. ”

Tang Mo said confidently: "It's okay, I will have my own plans." Order, let people scold..."

Just when the Chu army was scolding again, it was a different scene in the Qi camp at this time.

As Tian Wen's envoy, Qi Maungbi came to the Qi camp with a thousand gold gifts, and said worriedly: "General Tian, since Kuang Zhang returned to Jucheng, the Chu and Song coalition forces have stepped up their attacks on Xue Cheng in the past few days. In Xue Chengzhong, the news of General Kuang Zhang's return unfortunately leaked, and morale plummeted. Xue Cheng can't bear it anymore.

Therefore, Meng Weijun ordered to come to Xia to ask for help, hoping that the general could see the past situation and lead the army to save Xue Cheng and water and fire. Meng Weijun has nothing to repay, and is willing to offer a thousand gold as a thank you gift. ”

Tian Jia was shocked.

Although he had long known that Qi Maungbi had entered the Qi camp with a heavy gift, and had also thought that Meng Weijun would bribe him with a lot of money, he still startled Tian Jia by making a fortune that was a daughter.

Meng Weijun really deserves to be a well-known rich and noble person in the Qi Kingdom, and ordinary people, even people from the clan, can't compare.

"This..." Tian Jia hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and refused: "Although Jia also wants to immediately lead his troops to rescue Meng Weijun, the strength in his hand is still too weak compared to the Chu and Song coalition forces. Even General Zhangzi didn't dare to rush in easily, how dare he underestimate the Chu and Song coalition forces. ”

Qi Maungbi ignored Tian Jia's prevarication and continued to speak: "General Tian, the daughter brought by the old man is just a deposit, as long as the general can solve Xue Cheng's difficulties, after the matter is completed, Meng Weijun is willing to fully support the general to improve his status in the Qi country." ”

Seeing that Tian Jia smiled and said nothing, Qi Xiang said meaningfully: "General, Panzi died not long ago, and now Zhang Zi is also old, and there are not many years left to fight." After Zhangzi, I don't know who the general thought would replace Zhangzi's position? ”

Tian Jia was stunned for a moment, and said hesitantly: "I don't know what Meng Weijun means?" ”

Qi Maung argued and said: "Meng Weijun is the lord of Xue Di, naturally he will not become the commander of the Qi army, the general is close to the king, if the king doesn't help you, who else can he help?" As long as the general can relieve the siege of Xuecheng, then the thousands of guests in the hands of Meng Weijun are willing to go all out to advocate the good name of the general, and at that time, the general will become a famous general in the Qi State second only to Zhang Zishengzi. ”

Tian Jia swallowed his saliva, and his heart was moved in an instant.

Tian Jia's ability to Tian Wen is clearly known by Tian Jia, and the reason why his reputation far exceeds his talent is nothing more than blowing. Everyone says that three people become tigers, let alone three thousand.

Even if it's a waste, it can properly blow the dragon and phoenix in the human being.

Therefore, Tian Jia is conceited that his level is not much worse than Tian Wen, but he is not as rich as Tian Wen, and he has no money to buy customers to tout. These days, if you want to be famous, you have to be rich!

It's just that his heart is moving, but when he thinks of King Qi's plan and Kuang Zhang's entrustment, he took a huge risk and sent troops to rescue Xue Cheng in advance, but he Tian Jia still didn't dare. Whether it is Tian Jia or Tian Wen, his power and wealth have to rely on the King of Qi, and if he angers the King of Qi, even if the first king comes back from the dead and praises it personally, it is useless.

Thinking about it, Tian Jia shook his head regretfully, and said with great righteousness: "The king ordered Ben Jiang to rescue Xue Cheng, and naturally he will go all out in the future, Ben Jiang will stay here now, not because he doesn't want to go to the rescue of Xue Cheng, but because he is looking for an opportunity to defeat the Chu and Song coalition forces in one fell swoop."

Now, Ben Jiang already has some eyebrows, please return to Xue Cheng to report to Meng Weijun, and wait for a while. As long as the Chu and Song coalition forces show their flaws, the general will naturally go all out to relieve the siege of Xue Cheng. ”

Saying that, Tian Jia showed a look of pity on his face and said: "As for the gift sent by Mr., it is useless, please bring it back to Xue Cheng and return it to Meng Weijun." ”

"This..." Seeing that Tian Jia was unwilling to go to rescue Xue Cheng immediately, Qi Xiangbian's face stiffened, but in the end he didn't turn his face with Tian Jia, and reluctantly smiled: "Since the general will do his best to rescue Xue Cheng, then the gift brought by the old decay should be regarded as a thank you gift from the general in advance." ”

······

Outside Xue City.

While Xiong Huai was nervously waiting for Tian Jia to enter the urn, there was bad news from the Wei State.

"King, the spies came to report, not long ago, the Wei State suddenly changed, and the King of Wei dismissed Lou Su from his position as Wei Xiang in the name of accepting bribes from other countries without permission. At the same time, the king of Wei had ordered the army to be conscripted, with Gongsun Xi as the general, to garrison the northern part of the water. ”

In addition, news came from Lou Suo that after the Yan State sent troops to start a war against the Donghu people, the Qi envoy Chen Jia once again lobbied the King of Wei and asked the Wei State to send troops to rescue the Qi State at the cost of ten cities. As a result, the king of Wei coveted the cities of Qi and agreed to Qi's request. ”
