Next.

Knowing that the envoys of Qin had visited the king of Han in Qi and Chu, he was worried about meeting with the king of Chu and King Qi again.

On the one hand, I am worried that the two countries of Qi and Chu are still fighting Qin on the surface, but they are secretly pulling their backs, and on the other hand, I am glad that the two countries of Qi and Chu will not officially tear their faces with Sanjin for the time being.

After the three of them had a bit of a fight, they once again ordered someone to perform a song and dance.

Since the monarch of the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Han learned that the Qi-Zhao coalition army successfully crossed the river under the response of the Yiqu State, the singing and dancing in the palace of the Duke of Western Zhou have not been interrupted, and there is a look of great celebration.

Just as he was enjoying himself, a messenger walked in quickly and saluted: "Report to the alliance leader and the two kings, two days ago, the Qi-Wei coalition army successfully crossed the river in Pangdi under the response of the Zhao army led by the rhino head. ”

"Now the widow has commanded the Qi and Wei coalition forces to storm Hancheng, and the widow has specially informed the alliance lord that Hancheng will be broken in a few days, and then the Qi and Wei coalition forces will wave their troops south to attack Shaoliang, in order to prevent the Qin State from continuing to draw troops from Hangu Pass, the widow asks the alliance lord to exert pressure on Hangu Pass."

Xiong Huai was startled, the Qi-Wei coalition army also crossed the river?

Suddenly, there was a feeling of joy descending from the sky, and he hurriedly asked: "This is true, the land west of the Qin State has also been lost?" ”

The messenger nodded, "Don't dare to deceive the alliance leader, this matter is true." ”

After receiving the messenger's affirmative answer, Xiong Huai suddenly showed joy, and then glanced at King Qi of Han, everyone was smiling, this is double happiness.

Xiong Huai laughed and said, "Okay, this is indeed great news." The envoy can go back and tell the king of Wei that the widow will immediately strengthen the offensive against Hangu Pass, so please rest assured that the king of Wei can rest assured. ”

The messenger replied, "King Xie." ”

Xiong Huai nodded, and then saw that the messenger did not leave, but stayed where he was, and asked in surprise, "The messenger has news to report to the widow." ”

When the messenger heard this, he arched his hand and said: "Back to the alliance leader, the rhino head general fell ill in the battle to receive the allied army to cross the river, and now he has been unconscious, the widow has hired a famous doctor to treat the rhino head, and the widow has sent a message for the alliance leader, our country will definitely do its best to treat the rhino head, please rest assured." ”

“···”

The good mood just now immediately dissipated, and Xiong Huai frowned and said, "May I ask the envoy, what is the condition of the rhino head now, and why did the rhino head fall ill?" ”

The messenger replied: "Alliance leader, according to General Zhao, the king of Zhao asked the rhino head about the terrain of the land of the West River, and as soon as the rhino head heard that the Zhao army raided the land of the West River, he immediately volunteered to go in person. King Zhao didn't want to agree, but in the end, he was persuaded by the rhino head and promised to let the rhino head personally lead the troops to respond. ”

"It's just that this march is different from the past, when the rhino head marched before, he either ran directly or rode by car, but this time the army sent by Zhao State was a single horse, so it was extremely bumpy. After the Qi and Wei coalition forces successfully crossed the river, the rhino head fell off the horse and fell into a coma, according to the imperial doctor, although the rhino head did not worry about his life this time, but his vitality was greatly damaged. ”

As soon as King Qi heard that Gongsun Yan's vitality was greatly injured, he immediately gloated and comforted: "Alliance leader, the rhino head is injured, this is really a pity. ”

"However, the grievances and grievances between the rhino head and the Qin State are known to the whole world, and now the rhino head is seeking benevolence and benevolence, and it can be regarded as death without regrets."

King Han was also relieved, but as soon as King Qi's words came out, he immediately shrank back again, so as not to cause misunderstanding.

Xiong Huai glanced at King Qi coldly, and snorted coldly: "Thank you King Qi for your concern, but the rhino head is only injured now, not dead. ”

King Qi sneered: "Alliance leader, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue." ”

Seeing that there was friction between the king of Chu and the king of Qi, the situation did not seem to be right, and he was worried that the two of them were deliberately taking the opportunity to make trouble in order to prevent the growth of Zhao and Wei, and planned to withdraw from the army to wait and see, so he immediately spoke: "Alliance leader, the rhino head has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is tired, how can there be a big problem." ”

Xiong Huai nodded when he heard King Han's exit.

King Han continued: "Alliance Leader King Qi, it's getting late today, why don't we stop here." ”

Xiong Huai and King Qi glanced at each other and nodded at the same time.

Xiong Huai had just walked out of the gate of the main hall when he saw an unusual messenger hurrying from a distance.

I saw that the messenger was wearing the costume of the Qi country, and he was obviously a Qi person, but unlike other messengers, this messenger was wearing plain clothes, which was to report the funeral.

An important minister in the State of Qi has passed away?

If it's Kuang Zhang or Shengzi, it's even better...

Xiong Huai cursed silently.

Then the corners of his mouth curved slightly, and he said to King Qi, who was still in the main hall: "King Qi, it seems that a messenger from the Kingdom of Qi has come over, and I also ask King Qi to mourn on his Day!" ”

When the King of Qi heard the words of the King of Chu, he was stunned at first, and then thought that the King of Chu was taking revenge, so he was immediately angry, walked out of the main hall quickly, and when he saw the messenger, his face suddenly changed.

King Qi recognized who the person was, this was Tian Pan's grandson Tian Hao.

King Qi immediately hurried up to meet him.

Xiong Huai immediately gloated and followed with King Han, who had just come out.

Tian Hao walked quickly to the front and back of King Qi, and immediately sobbed and bowed: "King, the ancestor of the family is gone." ”

Although King Qi had been prepared, he was still stunned when he heard Tian Hao say it himself.

Xiong Huai saw that King Qi was silent for a long time, sighed, did not stimulate King Qi too much, glanced at King Han, saw the look of worry in King Han's eyes, nodded to him, and then turned to leave.

Back at the residence, Xiong Huai pondered for a while, and said to Dr. Chen Zhen, who was following him: "Tian Pan is dead, this is a thing to be happy about, but at this point in time, it is not the time to die. ”

Doctor Shangguan responded: "King, Tian Pan is indeed not the time to die, Tian Pan was a famous general in the world during the period of King Qi Wei, prepared for Chu to prevent Zhao, and made outstanding contributions, because of King Qi Wei's suspicion, he was shelved by Qi State, but he has a very high prestige in Qi State, far beyond ordinary ministers. Because of his death, the King of Qi will definitely leave Luoyi and return to Qi. ”

"The King of Qi returned to the State of Qi, and the main force of the Qi army was still in the territory of the State of Qin, which would definitely not be reassuring to the King of Qi. Therefore, the minister was worried that the Qi army would also follow the king of Qi back to the Qi state, and at that time, it would definitely affect the morale of the two countries of Zhao and Wei, and the pressure on the Qin state would drop greatly. ”

Xiong Huai showed a look of approval: "Yes, this is also what the widow is worried about. ”

····

On the other side, after the King of Qi ordered Tian Hao to go down to rest, he fell into deep thought.

The current situation, because of Tian Pan's death, Qi definitely needs him, the king of Qi, to go back to appease the clans and ministers of Qi, if he goes back, and the Qi army is still attacking Qi, it will inevitably affect the morale of the Qi army.

Moreover, the main force of Qi is far away from its own country and has been abroad for a long time, which is also abnormal.

But if the army is withdrawn, then Qi State's long-planned plan to win over Zhao and Wei will be abandoned halfway, and it will also cause dissatisfaction between Zhao and Wei, which is more than worth the loss.

Knowing this, when the Qin envoy came to the peace talks yesterday, he should have agreed to Qin's request!

Thinking about it, King Qi secretly sighed: It's really not the right time for Panzi to die.
