Prequel: The Widow Has a Disease Chapter 17, The Fisherman's Provocation

More than 100 years ago, the four ethnic groups of Pakistan were in civil strife, and the two families of Xiang and Zheng divided the country and ruled by dividing the river; The two countries fought at war for several years, and Shu invaded the western border of the two countries; The friendship between lips and teeth, the orange qi formed an alliance, resisted the strong Chu in the east, blocked the Shu State in the west, and had a hundred years of friendship, and there was no war.

Fishing benefits near the water, Bayang and Qiguo Xinli, facing each other across the river, are all engaged in fishing. The fishermen of the two countries tacitly fished in the center of the river to divide the fish, and occasionally crossed the boundary, giving fish to make amends.

In the autumn of the twenty-second year of King Lihe, there was a fisherman Liu Su in Bayang who crossed the border by fishing, which was not a big deal, but Liu Su was stingy, and only gave a few small fish less than half a catty to make amends. The fisherman of Xinli collected the fish and had a pimple in his heart.

The next day, Liu Su fished as usual, but was robbed of his day's fishing profits by the fishermen who wandered in the heart of the river, and walked away. Liu Su recognized that there was the fisherman yesterday, and felt that the Qiguo people had a small stomach, and he had been robbed of fishing profits for another day, so he was indignant in his heart, and cried and asked Fan Yu, who was then a doctor in Bayang, to administer justice.

Fan Yu, the son of Qi Zi, is arrogant by nature. I heard that the neighboring people made trouble and oppressed the people, which was tantamount to slapping myself in the face, so I personally led people to arrest the Xinli fisherman, a total of three people, waiting for the Xinli people to ransom them.

Xinli doctor Miao Yi was so angry that he scolded the people of the Mandarin for being arrogant, but he just grabbed a few fish, and the petty fights between the fishermen were just trivial things. Besides, as a local doctor, the miners not only did not stop the trouble, but also intensified the arrest of their own fishermen, and he was determined to punish Bayang.

In the early morning of the next day, taking advantage of the fog on the Tongjiang River, Miao Yi led two hundred soldiers, dozens of fishermen, and nearly three hundred people to attack Bayang.

The two countries of Fang and Qi were on good terms, the border was not committed in autumn, the standing army of Bayang was less than 100 people, and it could not withstand the Xinli offensive, Bayang fell, and Fan Yu was arrested. Miao Yi triumphed in Xinli, and the people welcomed him.

When Qi Zi heard that his only son had been arrested, he was furious and transferred 3,000 troops from the west to Chen Bayang.

Xinli doctor Miao Yi just fought for a breath, but he didn't expect that the country of Fang was really moving, and he didn't expect that a doctor from Bayang Xiaoyi turned out to be the son of Taibao, and abandoned the city and fled to Qidu overnight.

Chen soldiers on the border, King Qi was uneasy, after all, the western border had been at war with Shu for many years, and the country had long been poor and the people were lacking; Moreover, the fang country is an ally, if the two countries compete, the winner must be the Shu country, and the western border is not guaranteed.

After weighing, King Qi executed Xinli's doctor Miao Yi, took his head, and was willing to cut Xinli to ask for peace.

King Fang was overjoyed, and Qi Zi said that as long as Fan Yu was safe, he would not pursue it much. King Qi breathed a sigh of relief, compared to the fall of the Western Realm, what is the loss of a city?

When the people of Xinli heard that King Qi was soft, they actually executed the doctor Miao Yi, and cut the land to seek peace, and they were indignant in their hearts, and buried Miao Yi's head, and tens of thousands of people were grieved, such as mourning. Another villager killed Fan Yu in a fit of anger, cut off his head, and sent it to the front of the fang army by the warrior Lian A rowing a boat.

Lian A took the brocade box and the map and met Qizi. Qi Zi sat in front of the formation and asked, "Who is coming?"

Lian Ah did not kneel, did not salute, and said with a miserable smile: "Xinli Township Yonglian Ah, I was ordered to present the head of Xinli Doctor Miao Yi and the map of Xinli to King Fang."

Qi Zi Zou Mei said, "Just present the map, and you will take Miao Yi's head back for burial."

After that, Qi Zi ordered someone to present the map, but Lian Ah held the map to death, refused to let go, only handed the brocade box to the waiter, and sneered: "If you don't see the king of the fang, you won't offer the map." As for the brocade box, Taibao doesn't accept it, so don't regret it. ”

Qi Zi was furious, and split the brocade box with a sword, only to see a bloody good head, which was actually his only son Fan Yu. Qi Zi's chest was thrust, and a sword stabbed at Lian A. Even Ah didn't dodge, he was hit by a sword in his chest, spitting blood in his mouth, and sneered: "I am a townsman in Xinli, how can my Qi country be humiliated!" After speaking, he threw himself into the river with a map in his mouth.

"If I don't avenge the murder of my son, I will be a father in vain." Qi Zi was stunned word by word, almost dying.

Lian's corpse was salvaged, and Qi Zi whipped the corpse for three days. In three days, the Fang army had crossed the river, occupied Xinli, and waved its army north.

In three days, Qi Jun sent five groups of envoys, Qi Zi killed five batches, and the Fang army was like a bamboo, smashing into Huoquan Pass. Huoquan Pass is an important pass in the south of Qi and is known as the throat of Qi State. If the Living Spring Pass is broken, Qidu will be in danger, and Qi will definitely be in national disaster.

The army of Qi was approaching the city, Qi Jun knew that there was no way out, so he had to transfer troops from the west, the two sides had a total of 50,000 soldiers, more than 30,000 Zong, and 20,000 were insufficient.

Sima Wu Bugu of the Qi State asked for peace before the battle, and Qi Zi ordered someone to shout: "Qi kills my only son, disturbs my people, invades my land, and negotiates peace."

Wu Bugu was miserable in his heart, and stood in front of the formation and shouted: "Qi Zhi's fault, I am willing to cut the five cities and ask for peace."

Qi Zi replied: "Don't say that five cities are fifty cities, and they can't be worth my life."

Just a few words, it has already collapsed. Qi attacked Quanguan for five days, and if it was not broken, Qi Zi returned to the capital to meet the king of the orange.

"Wang, the old minister has served the country and the people all his life, and he only has an only son under his knees," Qi Zijin said, "The old minister please transfer troops from the west to help Huoquan Pass." ”

"Wang, the minister has a saying," Ri Qin Boxian arched his hand and said, "The minister thinks that the security of the western border is a big matter, the Shu land is vast and the people are abundant, the soldiers are wide, and the western territory has been coveted for a long time, and an inch of land in the western territory cannot be lost." At the friendship of the lips and teeth, the king of Qi was willing to cut the five cities to negotiate peace, and he should not fight again. ”

"Taifu, it's not your son who died." Qi Zi said through gritted teeth.

"My son-sang, I buried my bones in another country eighteen years ago." Ri Qin Boxian answered.

Qi Zi was speechless, and King Fang didn't want to see the temple pillars angry with each other, so after weighing it, he had to agree to send troops to punish Qi Guo.

"Ruling Guiba, transferring 50,000 troops, galloping to the aid of Huoquan Pass; Taibao Qizi, led 80,000 troops, attacked Huoquan Pass, punished Qi State, and preached national prestige. "King Fang ordered, and Ba Chuang took the order.

"Wang, more than 50,000, absolutely not, there are a total of 100,000 military horses in the west, and there are already 30,000 reinforcements in Huoquan Pass, and then 50,000, if Shu invades the western border, how can 20,000 horses resist a tenfold strong enemy?" Taibu Baliang said. The war in the west is endless, and the two countries have a total of 200,000 Chen soldiers and 200,000 Shu Chen soldiers, and the confrontation has been a long time.

"Jianghou is brave, he has never been defeated in 22 years, he will win every battle, he can lead Jiangcheng soldiers and horses to the west to protect the west." Uncle Qing said.

"Jiangcheng has less than 8,000 military horses, how can it fill the gap of 80,000?" Ri Qin Boxian Zou Mei.

"Jiang Hou only needs to guard for half a month, and after half a month, no matter what, the old minister should retire from the army." Qi Zi is overjoyed, 80,000 horses, even one person and one spit, can also break the pass, when the time comes, drive straight in, go straight to Qidu, can be immortal. As for the half month later, there will be no foreign military orders.

"The minister commands." Jiang Wangshu had nothing to do, and smiled bitterly. As a minister, the king gave orders, and the ministers obeyed.

The two countries, which have been friends for a hundred years, have renewed their wars, and tracing the beginning of the war, it turned out to be a fisherman's provocation.
