Hearing Zhao Yong's scene begging for mercy like this, Zhao Xue's eyebrows and eyes brought a smile, and she let her brother go. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

She immediately said to Zhao Yong: "Tell you, the tea you spoiled for me is not comparable to the inferior tea of those merchants on the market, this is the high-quality tea that the prince of Song Guo personally dedicated to his father!" ”

Hearing the name "Ziyan" twice in one day, and one of them made him suffer a great insult from the "devil", he couldn't help but be curious about this son of the Song Kingdom, and asked, "Why is it Ziyan again?" What kind of person is this Ziyan?"

Zhao Xue replied: "He's just a coward who dares to fight hard." is more able to speak, and coaxes our Zhao country into a daze. ”

When Zhao Yong heard this, he became more and more interested: "Cowards who dare to work hard, this evaluation is really interesting." Sister, why do you say that about him? ”

Zhao Xue said with a hint of pride: "Because I gambled with him on arrows, he dared to fight, didn't he dare to fight hard?" But in my opinion, a coward, no matter how hard he dares to fight, is still a coward! ”

Zhao Yong was not surprised to hear that she had made an arrow bet with that Ziyan. In his opinion, there is nothing that this "devil" dare not do, and he can't do it!

And the prince of Song Guo, whose name is Ziyan, dared to gamble with his sister with arrows, although his sister privately commented that this Ziyan was a coward, but it can also be seen that Ziyan at least lacked courage, and his archery skills were also extremely amazing. As a result, he became more and more interested in Ziyan.

At the same time, the Qi State was flat, and Tian Pan's preparations for the conquest of the Song State were all prepared.

The Song State was a small but strong country in the eyes of the Qi State, and although the goal of the Qi State in attacking the Song State was only to occupy Taoqiu, the Qi State did not dare to slack off at all. The king of Qi selected 50,000 skilled fighters from the country and handed them to Tian Pan, and then ordered Tian Pan to levy all the troops in Pinglu and obtained 30,000 Wudu troops.

With an army of 80,000, the king of Qi was still not at ease, and then transferred hundreds of warships from Jishui to Tian Pan. As soon as the warships gathered, they moved south from Jishui to the southern shore of Onozawa. Under the blockade of the Qi State Water Division, the entire Jishui was blocked. During the war, the Qi army did not let any merchant ship cross the border! As a result, the trade routes between the Song state and the Qi state and the Lu state in the east were cut off by water.

And the sailors of the Qi State are not only responsible for blocking the role of Jishui, but also bear the grain and grass of the Qi army.

And with such adequate preparations, Tian Pan immediately ordered the 80,000 troops of the Qi State to advance directly along Jishui towards its target Taoqiu!

When the Song State learned that the Qi State had gathered troops to level the land, they also began to gather troops in Taoqiu.

The smell of war also caused a significant reduction in trade throughout the pottery mound, and a large number of merchants began to flee. Before the war began, it caused irreparable losses to the Song State!

But even so, the Song State still calmly dealt with the war of the Qi State. In Taoqiu, Da Sima Xiangshe had 30,000 standing troops in his hands, plus 40,000 local troops supported by feudal lords from all over the country, a total of 70,000 troops.

This is already the limit that Suiyang can use to defend the pottery mound.

In the face of this Qi country's southward march into Dayozawa, Xiang She also did not show weakness, he only left a small part of the army to defend Taoqiu, and he personally led the army to the north, preparing to defend the enemy outside the country.

As a result, the armies of the two sides of Song and Qi confronted each other in Juye, and the war was about to break out!

Tian Pan is a famous general who can be made a national treasure by the King of Qi, he suffered a loss of fat righteousness in the war with Zhao State, and after being flooded by Zhao State, he became more and more cautious in using troops.

This time, the confrontation between the two sides, Qi State is also in the lower reaches of Jishui. He was also worried that the Song State would repeat Zhao's old schemes, so he needed to control the situation on the entire battlefield. When the two sides of Song and Qi confronted each other, he only sent Qi technical fighters to constantly harass the Song army's camp, and he did not easily send a large army to fight a big battle with the Song State.

In his opinion, the Song State is a small country after all, and the Song State will definitely not be able to bear it if Juye and Qi are competing against each other. As long as the losses of the Song State can no longer be beared, then the Song State can be persuaded to cede Taoqiu without blood.

As the veteran general of the Qi State, he naturally knows the characteristics of the Qi State's technical fighters. In his opinion, if the Qi army was allowed to enter the Taoqiu, then the skilled fighters who made a living from making a fortune could empty the entire Taoqiu! At that time, what is the point of Qi Guo getting such an empty pottery mound?

And Sima Xiangshe, the great commander of the Song army, was ordered to defend the Qi State for a month, so he was also happy to fight against the Qi State in Juye.

By the end of July, after nearly 20 days of confrontation between the two sides, a large army came from the northwest and began to join the Song side of the confrontation between the two sides.

This move surprised Tian Pan very much. In his opinion, the Song State had already offended the Chu State, and the Qi State and the Wei State had completely reconciled. The major powers around the Song State no longer have the desire to interfere in the Song and Qi wars, so it can be said that the Song State has completely fallen into isolation, and who will help the Song State at this time?

Soon he didn't have to guess, and the army also sent an envoy to the Qi army. This envoy, he is already very familiar with, it is the subordinate of the general of the Zhao State who let him endure the biggest fiasco in his life!

After Tian Pan saw the envoy of Zhao State, he directly reprimanded: "My Qi State attacked the Song State because the Song State helped the Chu State in the Xuzhou War, and the Song State has a great grudge against our country!" And the ink of the peace agreement signed by Zhao and my Qi State has not yet dried, and Zhao State has begun to interfere in the war between my Qi State and Song State again, does Zhao State want to regret it? Zhao Guo has no interests in the Song State, and I advise Zhao Guo to immediately withdraw his troops and return to China, so that he can ignore Zhao Guo's offense this time. If Zhao Guo insists on not going and wants to stand with Song Guo, it will be an official declaration of war with my Qi State! ”

When the envoy of Zhao State heard Tian Pan's reprimand and threat, he didn't think so, but said to Tian Pan with a smile: "My Zhao State has now become an ally with Song State, and now that Qi State attacks Song State, it has already declared war on my Zhao State, if Panzi wants to be more formal, my Zhao State will not care!" ”

Seeing Zhao Guo's tough attitude, Tian Pan didn't dare to slack off. He had no choice but to stop sending technical fighters out to harass him, and began to send envoys to rush back to Linzi to report the news of Zhao's participation in the war to the king of Qi.

The king of Qi was also very surprised to see that Zhao Guo would save Song, so he hurriedly summoned Zou Ji and Tian Ying to discuss the war against Song.

In Zou Ji's opinion, since Zhao and Song are standing together, it is very unwise for Qi to attack Song again. All Qi can do now is to give up this war and wait for the next time to make a comeback.

But Tian Ying didn't see it that way, in Tian Ying's opinion, Zhao Guo participated in the war, although he didn't know why. Thinking that the Song State must have spent a great price in order to move the Zhao State to resist the Qi State. Qi Guoda can confront each other with Song and Zhao in Juye, and after a long time, Song and Zhao will not be able to bear it, and the armies of the two countries will naturally retreat.

Even if the army of Zhao was stationed in Juye, then the supply of military rations for the armies of the two countries should also be the responsibility of the Song state. And under this kind of attrition, a small country like Song will definitely not be able to confront Qi State! In this way, the State of Qi can negotiate with the State of Song, even if the State of Qi cannot let the State of Song cede Taoqiu, it can also cut off a piece of meat from the State of Song!

In any case, under the strong national strength, the Qi State must have an advantage in confronting a small country like the Song State. Qi Guo will not suffer no matter what!

King Qi accepted Tian Ying's opinion, and thus gave Tian Pan unprecedented support on the front line. A steady stream of military rations began to be transported to the south bank of Onozawa, the camp of the Qi army in Juye.

At the same time that Zhao sent 5,000 vanguard troops to Juye, Zhao also began to send a second batch of 20,000 troops to Juye, so that the Zhao and Song coalition forces in Juye had reached 95,000 people, which was larger than the ground forces of Qi State!

However, even if the Zhao and Song coalition forces had an advantage in terms of troops, Xiang She and Feiyi, as the commanders of the two armies, did not dare to act rashly, because it was Tian Pan, a famous general of Qi State, who confronted the Zhao and Song coalition forces! When Zhao and Qi fought each other, Tian Pan relied on such a weak defense line as Jishui, plus the sailors of Qi State, Zhao Jun couldn't cross this line of defense!

And now all the troops in Tian Pan's hands are more than the army led by Zhao Qi during the Great War! And the terrain that the Qi army is defending now is far more favorable than the terrain during the previous Zhao Qi war. What the Qi army occupies now, but in this era, the entire Central Plains is famous for its lake-Onozawa!

In Dai Yan's opinion, if the Zhao and Song coalition forces want to defeat the Qi State, then in addition to the land troops of the Qi State, they also need to defeat the sailors of the Qi State! In his opinion, the sailors of the Qi State were more important than the troops on land.

Because of the problem of the military system of the Qi State, even if all the 80,000 troops of the Qi State are wiped out here, as long as the sailors of the Qi State are still there, and the Onozawa is not lost, the Qi State can continue to gather technical fighters from the country to resist at any time.

In such a scenario, the decisive victory of the sailors became the key to the victory or defeat of the war. Dai Yan was finally able to understand what a helpless scene it was for Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang to confront Poyang Lake in later generations.

In the Song Kingdom, there are Surabaya and Suishui flowing through it, and the three largest cities in the Song Kingdom, Suiyang, Taoqiu and Pengcheng, are all intersected and circulated by waterways, and the Song Kingdom is of course not short of water divisions.

However, if it is said that the Song State and the Qi State will fight a big battle similar to the Battle of Poyang Lake in the later generations to decide the outcome, under the condition that the Qi State has already controlled the entrance to the south bank of Onozawa, the Song State does not have the confidence to dare to fight!

It can be said that when the sailors of the Qi State drove into Onozawa, the Qi State had already fallen into an invincible position.

As a result, the two sides fell into a long-term standoff.
