(Comment up, everyone, otherwise how would the author know if it's on a stand-alone machine!) )

On the eighth day of the seventh month of the tenth year of the Marquis of Wei, Linzi.

Since the founding of the Qi State, Linzi has been peaceful and peaceful for more than 100 years, and there has never been a sword and a storm.

The Wei army's step-by-step approach made the atmosphere in the entire Linzi City very depressing.

On the other side of the Wei army's slow advance, the Qi army was retreating one after another, and the panic of the Qi people under the two comparisons can be imagined.

Just half a month ago, the Wei army broke through the surrounding cities of Linzi, and the capital of Qi was directly exposed to the Wei army.

Until today, the situation has collapsed to the point of irreversibility for the state of Qi, and Linzi, as the capital of the country, has been surrounded by the army of the Wei state.

The Wei army was displayed around Linzi, and a decisive battle could be launched at any time. In other parts of the Qi state, the Wei army also did not stop attacking.

The most desperate thing is that Wei itself is still sending reinforcements, while Qi is difficult to replenish.

The army of Chu, which had high hopes from the Qi people, was pinned down by Wei Wuji's army, although it tried its best to rush to Linzi, but was dragged by Wei Wuji's army.

If he wants to hold Linzi, Tian Yuwen can only rely on himself, or he can only rely on the defenders of less than 40,000 in Linzi.

Standing on the tall city wall of Linzi, Tian Yuwen's face was very ugly, and he stared at the distance with the hilt of the sword in his hand.

Although he can't see the soldiers of the Wei army now, Tian Yuwen deeply feels the huge pressure brought by the Wei army, which is why he is here.

By this time, Tian Yuwen had no intention of taking care of the government, and now he was only staring at the Linzi garrison.

In fact, before the Wei army was encircled, some ministers in the Qi dynasty suggested abandoning Linzi and making a safer place in the south the temporary state capital.

It's just that this voice is very small, and as soon as it comes out, it was attacked by the vast majority of courtiers, and then it was gone.

So Tian Yuwen lost the last chance to leave Linzi, which contributed to the current situation.

In fact, after thinking about it, it is normal for the ministers to oppose the relocation of the capital.

First of all, Linzi is too important for the Qi State, this is the political and economic center of the Qi State, and it is also the place where the tombs of the ancestors of the Qi State are located, and it is impossible for the Qi State Office to give up.

Secondly, the Linzi city wall is tall and has enough food and grass, and has a solid foundation for fighting defensive battles, while there are no such conditions in other places, so it is better not to move.

Thinking of this, Tian Yuwen couldn't help sighing, no matter how he comforted himself, the reality situation had become like this.

Behind Tian Yuwen is Zhou Can, the general who is still dependent on him as the humerus.

Although "repeated defeats", it is true that Zhou Can cannot be blamed, the Qi State is always insufficient in terms of troops, even if Zhou Can uses troops like a god, it is useless.

The reason why he always does not have an advantage in terms of military strength is, in the final analysis, Tian Yuwen the reason is precisely because of his overall strategic considerations.

But Zhou Can will not blame Tian Yuwen at this time, for him, until now he is still relied on by the monarch as a confidant, which is how much trust the monarch has.

If you treat me as a countryman, I will repay you as a countryman...... This is a true portrayal of Zhou Can's heart.

These days, Zhou Can has witnessed the hardships of Tian Yuwen sleeping at night and doing his best to manage national politics.

Looking at the monarch who had lost a lot of weight in front of him, Zhou Can felt like a needle prick in his heart at this time.

The so-called king worries about the humiliation of the ministers, and he is also responsible for all this.

"Your Majesty, it's windy on the city wall, so you'd better go back and rest early!" Zhou Can bowed and said.

The Wei army can't fight for a while, and there is not much point in guarding here now.

After being called, Tian Yuwen slowly turned around, and the whole process looked like a fifty or sixty-year-old man.

In a deep voice, Tian Yuwen asked: "I heard that there are rumors in the army that Linzi will be difficult for a long time and morale is low?" ”

Of course, what Tian Yuwen said was true, but Zhou Can didn't intend to admit it, which would only make the monarch more upset, and it would not help to solve the problem at all.

Zhou Can said: "Back to the king, there is no such thing!" ”

Tian Yuwen shook his head, and said, "Okay, let's accompany the widow to the barracks to have a look!" ”

Since he couldn't persuade him, Zhou Can didn't say much, so he led Tian Yuwen in front of him, and the group slowly rushed to the barracks.

Linzi has been peaceful for a hundred years, and there is no standing military camp in the city, so tens of thousands of Qi troops in Linzi City are now requisitioned and transferred to civilian houses as military camps.

The people near the city wall were all moved, and the houses were vacated and all the Qi army camps were used.

When he approached the alley, he saw that the soldiers were doing their own things, some were sharpening their spears, some were adjusting their bowstrings, and some were squatting in the corners of the wall and staring at the others with dull eyes.

The guards who followed Tian Yuwen quickly stepped forward to line up the safety area, and at the same time announced the arrival of the monarch.

The barracks, which was still noisy, became silent in just one minute, and the nearly five hundred soldiers present all knelt on the ground, not daring to get up and look at Tian Yuwen.

This is the coercion of the monarch, even if Tian Yuwen has not done anything, he is still a monarch who cannot be offended in front of ordinary soldiers.

"Get up!" Tian Yuwen said in a deep voice.

Although the official battle for the defense of Linzi had not yet begun, the soldiers present were full of fatigue.

Their hair was disheveled, and most of their armor was torn, and they looked like the remnants of a defeated battle.

Seeing this scene, Tian Yuwen also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, is his army like this?

So he said to Zhou Can: "Why don't you issue new armor?"

Zhou Can also said that the soldiers here are all remnants, and of course the armor must be given priority to replenishing the fully formed army.

But this couldn't be said clearly, so Zhou Can confessed his mistake on the spot and said: "It's the minister's negligence, and please ask the king to punish the crime!"

Tian Yuwen didn't answer the topic, looking at the soldiers who were isolated from him, he said to the guard commander beside him: "Let them all withdraw, are you still worried...... Will the soldiers of Great Qi be detrimental to the monarch? ”

The guards on the side were in charge of Lian Lian, but he didn't think so in his heart, if someone was unfavorable to the monarch, then he wouldn't become a sinner of the Qi country.

Therefore, although the guards were withdrawn according to the order, the commander of the guards still ordered his subordinates to widen their eyes and raise their vigilance.

Looking at the soldiers in front of him, Tian Yuwen wanted to make an impassioned speech, but at this time he changed his mind.

As he approached the soldiers, he drew the sword of one of the captains, and the man immediately knelt down.

Looking at the several openings on the blade, Tian Yuwen rubbed lightly and said, "This sword, I want to kill a lot of Wei people, right?"

The leader who knelt on the ground did not dare to raise his head, and even at this time he was so nervous that he did not know what to say.

Tian Yuwen returned the mottled sword to the team leader, and then he said to everyone: "Your sword is damaged by killing the enemy, and your armor is broken to kill the enemy......

"Although you look embarrassed now, you are the heroes of the Qi Kingdom!"

Tian Yuwen's words put on the hat of a hero to these people, which was the monarch's own acknowledgment, which made the Qi soldiers present excited.

But the situation also made the guards nervous, and they were preoccupied with the soldiers on the scene, for fear that they would overreact.

At this time, Tian Yuwen continued: "Now that the Wei army is besieging Linzi, the widows need you, and the safety of Daqi needs you......"

"We have no way out, the loss of Linzi Qi is over, and your homeland is over......"

"Therefore, the widow wants you to cheer up and drive the Wei people out of the territory of our Qi country!"

After Tian Yuwen said this, the emotions of the soldiers below also calmed down, and they did not climb to a climax because of the monarch's words.

How could Zhou Can embarrass Tian Yuwen, so he saw him come out and answer: "What the king said is very true, the soldiers in front must sacrifice their lives and forget their deaths to defend the society of Qi Guoji!"

Speaking of this, Zhou Can turned to face the soldiers below, and then said loudly: "Soldiers, now that the king and I are in Linzi, sharing life and death, how can we not die?"

Zhou Can's prestige among the soldiers was very high, and with him shouting like this, the soldiers below reacted again.

Zhou Can struck while the iron was hot and shouted: "Die for the king!"

"Serve the ...... for the king"

"Serve the ...... for the king"

Seeing this scene, Tian Yuwen showed a slight smile on his face, it is a good thing for soldiers to use their lives.

At this time, Tian Yuwen also shouted to everyone: "Soldiers, wait until you defeat the Qi people, and the widow will personally reward you for your meritorious deeds, and the title field is waiting for you in front!"

These words really scratched the hearts of the soldiers, and they heard the crowd shouting: "Repel the Wei army, repel the Wei army......"
