Just when Su Qin and King Qi were talking, the palace maid had already combed King Qi's hair, King Qi seized the opportunity, immediately stood up, and he instructed the eunuch beside him: "The widow is ready, you go to the front hall quickly, announce the ministers, and the widow will go to the court immediately." ”

After the king of Qi gave instructions to the eunuchs, he turned his head and said to Chen Xu, who was still kneeling on the ground: "The widow will hold a court meeting immediately, you can't stay with Chen Cheng for a long time, if you have anything, you might as well discuss it with Su Qin, and Su Qin will tell the widow." ”

Chen Xu had tears in his eyes, and just when he was about to cry out, he suddenly encountered the matter of King Qi's announcement to the court, and knew that he had no chance to perform the sad drama that he was ready to do, so he couldn't help but feel anxious in his heart, and moved his mouth, but he didn't say anything after the end.

Su Qin took the lead and stood up with the king of Qi, and he said: "Weichen respectfully obeys the king's orders, and he will definitely not dishonor the national prestige of the Qi country." ”

Zhang Yi saw Su Qin get up, and he also acted with him. In the end, Chen Xu had no choice but to get up from the ground unwillingly. He went through hardships and finally met King Qi, but he didn't expect it to be a bamboo basket for water.

King Qi was about to leave Shouning Palace, how could Su Qin and the others stay still, they hurriedly followed King Qi and walked out, Su Qin saw that the corner of King Qi's mouth was still smiling, and he knew that he was proud that he got rid of the difficult person Chen Xu.

Su Qinxin said: "It's so dangerous, I almost let Chen need to cry in front of King Qi, so the situation will be completely out of control." ”

With infinite melancholy, Chen Xu drooped his head and followed behind Su Qin dejectedly, and they walked out of Linzi Palace together. Su Qin arrived outside the palace and asked Zhang Yi and Chen Xu to go back to the inn first, and he himself went to the Northern Army camp again, inspected the Qi army preparing to set off again, and then returned to the Hongxi Inn in the afternoon.

Su Qin found Chen Xu and discussed with him about the departure incident, Chen Xu lost hope of increasing his troops, and said in his heart: "Don't even keep these 3,000 men and horses." He was obedient to Su Qin at this time, and Su Qin asked him to go east, but he didn't dare to go west.

Su Qin said to Chen Xu: "The situation in Anyi is urgent, I plan to lead the Qi army to set off tomorrow morning, I don't know what Chen Cheng thinks." ”

Chen Xu's head nodded like a rattle, and he couldn't wait to set off immediately, and replied in a loud voice: "Everything is up to Prime Minister Su Cheng, and Chen Xu's words are obedient." Only the horse is the first to look forward. ”

Su Qin was very satisfied in his heart, and laughed a few times, he knew that Chen Xu had already set his heart on the ground, and he would not repeat it, let alone fight against himself, he was more confident at this time to have a big battle with the Qin army outside Anyi City.

Su Qin summoned the people of the Zhao delegation at the Hongxi Inn that afternoon and announced to them the order to transfer to Anyi of Wei, and these people had already heard rumors when Chen Xu, the prime minister of Wei, appeared at the Hongxi Inn: Prime Minister Su Cheng was going to Anyi of Wei.

Therefore, when Su Qin announced his decision to everyone, none of the members of the Zhao State delegation who accompanied him were surprised or puzzled, and everyone calmly accepted the new mission and prepared separately.

The most difficult person at this time was Ning Jun, because he had agreed on a marriage date with Tian Lin, and he would wait a year to marry the person he wanted, and at this moment he would leave her and go to the battlefield in Anyi, and he would inevitably miss Tian Lin. After thinking about it, he went to Tian Lin's residence in Linzi - Sun Bin's former residence that night, found her, and the two of them secretly met and talked about their heartfelt feelings, and then reluctantly parted.

On the day that Su Qin led the 3,000 soldiers of the Qi State and the entourage of the Zhao State delegation to Anyi, it was a spring season, and there was a misty drizzle in the sky. It's like a rain of tears in the sky, seeing off the man who is about to go to the killing battlefield.

The residents of Linzi City, who had already heard the news of the departure of the Qi army, gathered at the place where the Qi army started. Some of the parents of those sons who were in the military camp were silently weeping, while others were crying loudly, and the streets were full of sorrow.

The Qi army set off from the north gate of Linzi City, and the king of Qi sent Tian Cheng to see off Su Qin and the Qi army, and he announced the king's order to the Qi army: Su Qin is the main general of the Qi army, Yan Sui is the deputy general, and Su Qin and Yan Sui are the masters of major affairs in the army, and those who violate the order will be killed.

The three thousand soldiers of the Qi State shouted long live, raised their swords, guns, swords and halberds in their hands and pointed at the gray sky, lined up in a neat line, and drove out of the city.

Su Qin rode in the carriage and saw these energetic soldiers around him, and secretly made up his mind in his heart: We must do our best to let these people return with glory.

But war is cruel after all, especially in the face of the Qin army, which is very strong in combat, whether this wish can be realized is indeed an unknown huge question mark.

After three full days, this army finally arrived outside the city of Anyi, and joined the Wei army that rescued Anyi. The place where they were stationed was a small city called Linyun, less than thirty miles away from Anyi. The small city of Linyun was built on a high hill, where the Wei army strengthened the fortifications, which was condescending, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

After Su Qin and Chen Xu and others settled down, Su Qin led Ning Jun, Zhang Yi and Yan Sui and other generals to sit in his Chinese army tent, and he sent Wu Jing to invite Chen Xu to discuss the military situation with him.

Chen Xu entered Su Qin's tent, and Su Qin Yan took his seat, first praising the terrain of the place where the Wei army was stationed. He said: "Although Linyun City is small, but it is not easy for the Qin army to capture Linyun, it is really a rare strategic place. ”

Chen Xu listened to Su Qin's words of praise, and a smile of joy appeared on his face at first, but he didn't laugh for long, and a trace of sadness slipped across his face, and finally turned into a downright bitter smile.

Chen Xu said sadly: "Linyun Town is certainly dangerous, but now the key is that the 30,000 Wei troops stationed in Anyi City have been besieged for a long time, and outsiders cannot enter, nor can they go out inside, and the death battle has been blocked back. The Qin army intensified the siege, and I am afraid that the fall will be within ten days. ”

When Su Qin heard Chen Xu's statement, his brows furrowed slightly, and he felt a little troubled. In his early years, he fought with Wei Wei and spent time in the Qin army, knowing that the Qin army was highly disciplined, with clear rewards and punishments, coupled with sufficient armaments, especially the invincible crossbow and arrow array, it was invincible and was by no means an easy opponent to deal with.

Su Qin asked Chen Xudao, "How many troops are there in the Wei army in Linyun City?" Why didn't they come to the rescue, if the Wei army here and the defenders in Anyi City should be together, they should also be able to get the opportunity to rescue the defenders. ”

Chen Xu sighed and replied: "Our garrison in Linyun has also reached more than 30,000 people, but when these troops went to attack the Qin army, they repeatedly encountered the counter-encirclement of the Qin army and suffered heavy losses. ”
