The palace of the king of Qi

He Shuo then said to King Qi: "At present, there are frequent good news outside Jucheng City, the spirit of the Qin army has dissipated, and this is a good time for our army to defeat the Qin army in one fell swoop, and the king can issue a decree to order Lin Zhaoqi to take the initiative to attack the Qin army, if he listens to the order, he can prove his loyalty, and if he resists the order, it means that he must rebel."

Hearing He Shuo's suggestion, the King of Qi immediately sent an edict to Jucheng, and after a short time, the envoy arrived in front of Lin Zhaoqi to present the holy decree.

Lin Zhaoqi was taken aback after reading it, and said: "General Qin is scheming, and at this time, the attack will inevitably be calculated by him, and the general will not be subject to the order of the foreign monarch, this time I don't plan to respect the will of the king."

"General Lin, rumors are rife in the DPRK that you colluded with the Qin army to plot rebellion, and the king does not believe that you have this intention, so he issued this order to prove your loyalty, so that those who spread rumors will be silenced, and the general will not let down Wang Enhao."

After speaking, the envoy handed the holy decree to Lin Zhaoqi, and Tian Wu on the side also said: "At this moment, the Qin army has been defeated by our army, and we will definitely be able to recover the lost territory in one fell swoop if we send troops and horses.

The dilemma seemed a bit chicken, Lin Zhaoqi took the holy decree first, and then immediately discussed with the generals how to break the enemy.

After discussing for an hour, but never found a good way, Lin Zhaoqi waved his hand and ordered the generals to retreat, and looked at the holy decree again and again alone.

At this time, a man in black walked to Tian Wu's tent and secretly handed him a handwritten letter from He Shuo, Tian Wu opened it and said: "Brother Tian Wu, my brother knows that you and Lin Zhaoqi have always been at odds, and you have been suppressed by him a lot in political opinions.

I know that you have already had the heart to join the country, so I specially sent a tribute as a gift to the audience, which can encourage Lin Zhaoqi to lead the troops to attack the Qin army, and Lin Zhaoqi will inevitably fall into the scheme, even if he escapes back, he will not escape the crime of defeating the army.

At this time, I gave my brother a copy of the secret decree of the king of Qi with an edict, and you could take the opportunity to issue a secret decree to seize his military power, and after the matter was completed, Bao Ru became the prime minister's confidant and the official title of the great Sima, so that the whole army was returned to you for dispatch."

After reading the letter sent by He Shuo, Tian Wu recalled the time when Lin Zhaoqi suppressed himself in the court before, and at the same time remembered that he would be a head taller than himself, so he decided to do something to Lin Zhaoqi, and also to become a henchman of Housheng and commander of the whole country.

What everyone didn't know was that Geng Wu had already instructed He Shuo to do all this, and He Shuo didn't see Geng Wu's true intentions under some nervousness and anxiety.

Tian Wu came to Lin Zhaoqi alone, and after stating the benefits, he hoped that he could send troops, Lin Zhaoqi thought for a while and said: "The Qin army outside the city must have been prepared, waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net, and the attack at this time must be in their hands, and if the Qin army comes to attack the city, what should it do."

"The Metropolitan Governor was originally worried about this, the holy decree is very clear, as long as you send troops to prove your innocence, then why don't we choose a Qin army stronghold at random, and lead the troops to retreat after defeating him, which is not only in line with the king's will, but also makes those who spread rumors have nothing to say."

Hearing Tian Wu's idea, Lin Zhaoqi felt that there was some truth and nodded, Tian Wu continued: "The Metropolitan Governor can lead the army to attack the Qin army, and the last general will defend the city on his behalf, the Qin army divides its troops and there are not many troops after the defeat, how dare you involve this city."

After these words, Lin Zhaoqi was completely confident, so he immediately ordered Yue Pingxiao and Huang Yi, and each led 10,000 soldiers and horses to follow him out of the city.

After Lin Zhaoqi arranged for the sentinels to investigate, he finally targeted a Qin army stronghold twenty miles southwest, and what he didn't know was that their whereabouts had already been exposed.

Liu Xiang had secretly ordered Liu Xi and Lu Yi to lie in ambush, waiting for the first formation of the Qin army was 3,000 strong bows and crossbows, and at the same time, Guo Yue was also ready to lead the cavalry to charge and kill.

Before the Qi army arrived at the preset location, Liu Xiang said to Jian Xin: "Geng Wu just sent the news, all this was carefully arranged by him, but what he didn't expect was that He Shuo would make Tian Wu deal with Lin Zhaoqi like this, this is likely to be his personal vendetta, I heard that Tian Wu has always been at odds with Lin Zhaoqi, if Lin Zhaoqi falls into his hands, it will definitely encounter accidents, we must be fully prepared."

"Lord, what's so difficult about this, just take Jucheng directly, and I am willing to personally lead the troops there."

"What the military advisor said coincides with me, personally lead the army to go, and soon our army will definitely capture Jucheng."

After that, Liu Xiang distributed the 5,000 men and horses guarding the Chinese army and the general Wei Ye to Jian Xin, and Jian Xin led the army straight to Jucheng.

Lin Zhaoqi accepted the lessons of the previous two times, led the troops to move forward slowly and conducted all-round reconnaissance, but the army was also attacked by a rain of arrows as soon as they reached the foot of the mountain.

Bursts of random arrows knocked down countless Qi soldiers, and rolling wood and stones tumbled down the hillside and fell into the Qi army's formation, disrupting the Qi army's position in a short time.

"Our army has just marched to the valley before it encountered such a fierce attack, it seems that the other side is not an ambush army but a general defense system, why fear him."

Saying that, Lin Zhaoqi waved his gun and ordered to rush to the vicinity of the foot of the mountain, Liu Xiang saw this and said: "I just want to warn Lin Zhaoqi to let him leave quickly, and then let Guo Yue's cavalry cover and consume the strength of the Qi army, I didn't expect him to become more and more courageous, so let's frustrate him for a while."

Liu Xiang immediately ordered the first array of archers to retreat, Yue Pingxiao took the lead in the valley, and Lin Zhaoqi then led a large army to follow.

The Qi army had just arrived in the valley and was about to launch an attack on the target stronghold, but unexpectedly, thousands of archers of the Qin army were all standing up, and rockets fell down in a sea of fire.

In the area under the feet of the Qi army, the land was filled with patches of fire oil and thatch, and in an instant, the fire engulfed all the Qi army.

A moment later, the burnt Qi soldiers struggled to escape from the sea of fire and arrows, and it was clear that more than half of them had remained in this valley forever.

Lin Zhaoqi led the remnants to break through the mountain, but was covered by Guo Yue's cavalry for a while, and lost a lot of soldiers.

Seeing this, Liu Xiang personally led his own soldiers to chase and kill, Liu Xi and Lu Yi also led the infantry to kill from the mountain, in order to cover Lin Zhaoqi's breakthrough, Yue Pingxiao took a part of the soldiers and horses.

Yue Pingxiao was just about to leave after fighting with the Qin army for a while, when Liu Xi hurriedly opened his bow and shot him down with an arrow.

Yue Pingxiao, who rolled to the ground, quickly got up, flew up and down with two double guns in his hand, and after a while, he knocked down the Qin soldiers who surrounded him, but he did not guard against Guo Yue, who came by surprise, and was shot by Guo Yue and knocked off his helmet, so he immediately fainted in the chaos and was captured by Liu Xiaosheng.

Here, Jian Xin expected that the battle in the valley was over, so he came to the gate of Jucheng with a few soldiers and horses......
