Handan.

After hearing the news of Hou Sheng's surrender, Zhao Dan was silent for a moment, and then showed a smile.

"It seems that the end of the Qi State is imminent."

And Qi Wangjian in Linzi obviously didn't have such a good mood, after this Qi King learned the news, he directly smashed everything in front of him that could be smashed, beat everyone who could see it, and finally let out an extremely poignant roar.

"Hou Sheng, you traitor, the widow will punish your three clans and make you pay the price for what you have done!"

Qi Wangjian did what he said, and later that day, hundreds of people in the Housheng Mansion in Linzi were all killed by the enraged Qi Wangjian who ordered the Qi Guards to be killed.

It's not just Hou Sheng, those guys who followed Hou Sheng to surrender to the Zhao army, and their families were not spared.

When Ju Xin led 80,000 Zhao troops and 20,000 Qi troops to arrive outside Linzi City, he happened to see thousands of heads hanging on the head of Linzi.

Hou Sheng quietly stared at the tallest human head hanging on the city gate in front of him, which was his eldest son.

According to Hou Sheng's previous plan, his eldest son should hide in the house of a dead soldier who had been hidden all this time in Linzi City on the day of his surrender, and become the apprentice of the dead man disguised as a blacksmith, so as to safely survive the search and pursuit that would inevitably come during this time.

For this day, Hou Sheng buried this dead man fifteen years in advance, and has never had any contact with this dead man in these fifteen years.

But now the head of Hou Sheng's eldest son has appeared here.

Something must have gone wrong.

You must know that it is the eldest son of Hou Sheng who has spent countless efforts to cultivate, and is ready to use it to succeed his title and family property in the future!

Looking at it, Hou Sheng suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and the whole person fainted directly.

After waking up, Hou Sheng gritted his teeth and swore a poisonous oath: "Tian Jian, I swear not to give up with you!" ”

Two days later, the drama Xin department completely completed the siege of Linzi.

Although Zhou Fen in Gaowan City had the intention to withdraw to Linzi, Zhou Fen also knew very well in his heart that once he really led the army to withdraw from Gaowan, then the next thing he would face was the fierce pursuit of the Zhao army, and the Qi army, which lacked morale and had no combat superiority at all, could not win the Zhao army in a plain battle.

So Zhou Fen finally decided to stick to Gao Wan and wait for the turnaround.

As a result, today's battlefield of Qi has become two encirclements of Gaowan and Linzi.

The main force of the 200,000 Qi army led by Zhou Fen was surrounded in Gaowan City, and the one surrounded in Linzi City was Qi Wangjian, the monarch of Qi State.

Anyone can see that as long as any of these two encirclements are broken by the Zhao army, then the end of the other encirclement will soon come.

The demise of the Qi Kingdom seems to be in sight.

It was at this time that hundreds of Zhao envoys, with Yu Xin as the main envoy and Zheng Zhu as the deputy envoy, came to the Yingdu of Chu State.

The sky had just dawned, and two waves of people had already gathered outside the north gate of the Yingdu of the Chu State.

These two waves were led by Li Yuan, while the other wave was led by Jingyang's younger brother Jingtong.

Both sides were heavily armed and glaring angrily, their bows and swords pointed at each other, and they looked like they could go to war at any moment.

"Li Yuan, you, a despicable villain, will definitely not end well!" Jingtong stared at Li Yuan deadly, his eyes full of undisguised hatred.

In the last time Li Yuan's so-called wedding, a large number of elites and leaders of the three major families were ambushed by Li Yuan, causing the three major families to suffer heavy losses, and the Jing family, as the leader of the three major families today, was also the most seriously injured, and even the head of the family, Jing Yang, died in Li Yuan's mansion.

In this way, the three major families naturally hate Li Yuan to the core, and they can't wait to peel Li Yuan's skin and cramp to relieve the hatred in their hearts.

Li Yuan snorted, glanced at the other party, and said slowly: "Jingtong, you and the other three major families have openly betrayed the rebellion of the king and Gongzi Bo in conjunction with the Empress Dowager Jing, and sooner or later I will be punished!" ”

Now that the two sides have torn their faces, Li Yuan will naturally not be polite when he speaks, for Li Yuan, if the three major families are not eliminated for a day, Li Yuan's heart will be uneasy for a day.

Since the outbreak of Li Yuan's wedding incident, these days, the two sides have each attracted tens of thousands of Chu troops to attack each other, and they have beaten a good Yingdu to the point of misery and misery.

Li Yuan, as the initiator, naturally took advantage of some advantages, and took the territory near the palace city of Chu State and the palace city as his own, and used this place as his base camp for giving orders.

After all, the three major families are also the old forces of the Chu State, so even if many leaders died, they still launched a counterattack after a short period of chaos and occupied some other places in Yingdu.

If in terms of the importance of the territory, Li Yuan, who occupies Miyagi, is naturally superior, but if it is based on the size and population of the territory, then the three major families are superior.

The two sides each occupied a piece of land, and then at the same time issued orders to all parts of the Chu State, requiring the local officials in various places to lead the army to the king of Yingdu Qin, and the second should also kill the other party, otherwise it will be liquidated in the future.

So soon, the chaos of the Chu State spread from Yingdu to the locality.

The city guards in various places organized their own armies, or took the opportunity to develop their forces, or took the opportunity to attack political opponents, which can be said to be inseparable.

In addition, the barbarians in the south of Chu were also unwilling to be lonely, and the Baiyue tribes in the south began to frequently attack and harass the border of Chu, and Minyue, which had stronger combat effectiveness, attacked directly and occupied several cities on the southeast border of Chu.

In general, the current state of Chu is completely chaotic, with internal and external troubles.

But for Li Yuan or the three major families, eliminating each other is the thing that must be done now and is the highest priority.

It was at this time that the news came that Lian Po, the general of Zhao Guoda, led an army of 100,000 troops to the border of Zhao and Chu.

This news immediately shook both sides, and the originally fierce fighting was stalled for several days.

But fortunately, the next news came, Zhao had no intention of invading Chu, but King Zhao took pity on Chu because of this civil war, so he decided to mediate.

And then there was the upcoming Zhao State Mission.

Whether it is Li Yuan or the three major families, they all know very well in their hearts what is going on with this so-called mission that came to mediate.

This is why the people of Zhao Guo want to come to rip off bamboo and take advantage of the fire to rob!

But even so, Li Yuan and Jingtong, the leading figures of the two sides, still came to wait outside the north gate of Yingdu in advance on the day the Zhao delegation arrived.

No way, who made Zhao Guo's fist bigger?

In this world, fists have always been respected!

Just when the two sides were still arguing, someone suddenly shouted: "Look, it's coming!" ”

Beyond the distant horizon, a mission slowly emerged.

Li Yuan perked up, subconsciously glanced at Jingtong opposite, and just found that Jingtong also cast his eyes on his side.

The two sides snorted in unison, turned their heads at the same time, and then rode their horses towards the approaching Zhao State mission.
