Kong Hong's estimation is not wrong, the royal Chen family is already panicked now, if the soldiers and people in the royal Chen family were just a little confused, then yesterday the Qi State only dispatched 10,000 troops, and after the news of the breakthrough of the city spread, the prestige of the royal Chen family and a series of controls fell to the freezing point in an instant. There have been collective petitions from the people to give up resistance, and even in the last two days, this momentum has been gaining momentum. The head of the Chen family of the royal family, Chen Xuan, the king of Che, could only tear off the mask of loving the people like a son that he had disguised as a son in desperation, urging the soldiers to urge the people of the city to go to the city for defense, and using the lives of ordinary people to coerce the Qi State and the departed army not to attack. He himself forcibly recruited young and strong young men overnight and worked day and night to build firearms. In their agreement, this was the only way to temporarily keep the city, but the consequence of this was also very clear, that is, the hearts and minds of the people of the city that their royal family had spent a lot of money and held in their hands for a long time would be lost, and no one would be willing to die for such a regime.

The main reason why Chen Xuan would rather do this than surrender was because he had no other way out. On the other hand, in fact, because he kept his own hand before, he did not hand over all the mined fire oil to the Kong family, but only transported seventy percent of the fire oil, and the return he got at that time was that the seventy percent of the fire oil was enough to support the continuous bombardment of fifty firearms for seventy days, but it took nearly a year to study these fifty firearms. Then Chen Xuan made a preliminary calculation, if four firearms were developed and the remaining thirty percent of the fire oil was used, as long as the Qi State and the Departure Country were not pressed by the whole army, they would still have some opportunities. And to make four firearms, with the hundred craftsmen who are now forcibly used, it should only take five days. There is just no time to test whether these newly developed firearms are powerful or reliable. But these are secondary matters, and the most important thing is to see whether the current Qi and the departing armies have the means to defend against such firearms. If not, their royal Chen family can really delay for a while to wait and see what happens, and maybe there is still a slight chance of a turnaround.

Chen Xuan actually dared to do this because of the fact that the army of Liguo and Qi was now jealous, they all knew that if they wanted to occupy the city, they would inevitably need to get the support of the people in the city, and now the royal Chen family made such a move, obviously seeing this point before finally deciding to act like this. And the main proposer of this operation is Tong Meng, the prime minister of the Chen family of the royal family, who is also one of the most trusted people of Chen Xuan, the king of Che. Under normal circumstances, Tong Meng's suggestions can be said just right or even not deviate from the slightest, and now at this time, it is indeed possible to use the delicate relationship between the country and the country of Qi to launch the final counterattack. At this point, Tong Meng's judgment was not wrong, at this moment when everyone was in danger, Chen Xuan still trusted him very much, and would ask Tong Meng's opinion on everything.

It's just that what Chen Xuan never expected was that Tong Meng had now secretly rejoined the country, and Empress Shengde personally promised that he could still maintain the position of a high-ranking official in the country, and Tong Meng also knew that this was his last chance to express his position, otherwise he might not die well because of this reason, which was the thing that Tong Meng was most afraid of in front of him. Therefore, every suggestion that Tong Meng puts forward now seems to be helping the royal Chen family to make a final counterattack on the surface, but in fact, what he is doing is to accelerate the loss of the hearts of the royal Chen family. But Chen Xuan is now unscrupulous, as long as he can keep his position even for a day, he can let all the people and troops in the entire city be buried collectively.

Tong Meng can completely imagine what kind of resonance and repercussions will be aroused after the Chen family of the imperial family and Chen Xuan make such a move? Tong Meng knows this very well, he does not pay attention to this matter now, but focuses his attention on the attitude of the officials within the Chen family of the imperial family, once there are officials who want to secretly contact the country and the Qi country, he will concentrate on pulling him around. With his Tong Meng's prestige and status in the imperial Chen family, he successfully brought back five officials who wanted to secretly contact the Qi State, among them, the most surprising thing for Tong Meng was that Zhao Ling, the general who originally guarded Thorn City, who had returned to the city, was also one of them.

As soon as Tong Meng got the news, he immediately visited Zhao Ling and persuaded him bitterly. Among them, Tong Meng proposed one of the things that made Zhao Ling the most excited, and now his wife Kong Hong must have left the Qi army to help the departing army and help Empress Shengde. Besides, no one knows whether the Qi State is reliable or not, if what the Qi State is doing now is a gorgeous appearance on the surface, wouldn't this be worth the loss?

Under Tong Meng's skillful persuasion, Zhao Ling finally decided to help him leave the country, the most important of which was that Xia Cheng surrendered and was still the official of the general. Then he is at least the status of a great general, and he will be with Hong'er in this way, which is what Zhao Ling is looking forward to the most. So, Zhao Ling and Tong Meng joined forces, relying on the prestige and status of the two of them to secretly contact the army and the people. Zhao Ling contacted Ma Yan and Liu Xian, who were guarding the city gate, two of his former generals, and they promised to assist them in their trouble. The exact content and date are still up for debate, but the general direction has already been decided.

So, after identifying the helper and helper, Tong Meng found a secret conversation about leaving the country, and asked them to send a letter to the army outside the city, and handed over the letter he had written by himself to the general of the army leaving the country, the general Wang Yan, the governor of the north

In the late night, the military camp of Qi is unusually quiet now, except for the faint chirping of cicadas that have already emerged in early summer, even the sound of a gust of wind blowing is very faint. There are teams after teams around the entire Qi State camp, and each team of fifty sentinel soldiers patrols the camp day and night, and the last two days should be the time for Xiaoguan to transfer grain and grass to hand over, Li Fu naturally attaches great importance to this matter, he thinks that as long as the grain and grass for logistics transportation arrives, he can carry out the tug-of-war with the country without any worries.

As the chief general, he attached so much importance to these matters, and the officials below naturally took this matter very seriously, they not only sent 500 people divided into 10 teams to patrol day and night, but also specially ordered a cavalry force of more than 3,000 people to go to support, and it was necessary to ensure the safe transportation of grain and grass.

Tonight, the wind is very solemn, and the time has passed, but there is still a sound of tossing and turning in the big tent of the Chinese army of the Qi army. Li Fu, the general of the Qi State, rested his head on his right arm, leaned against his back and was deep in thought. Although the situation was very favorable to their Qi army, he still not only relaxed his vigilance in the slightest. He is the commander-in-chief of the whole army, and at all times he must take all the situations and situations into his own hands, and try not to have some uncertain factors.

After half an hour, Li Fu finally fell asleep in a daze. But he was not asleep yet, and the two of his guards guarding the door of the Chinese army's tent gently woke him up, and one of the guards whispered: "General, Xiao Guan's grain transport team has arrived, and it was Xiao Guan's lord who personally escorted Yu Fei here."

This news made Li Fu stand up from his seat, Yu Fei, as the Xiao Guan guard recognized by his father in the last letter, there was no need for her to come here in person for such a small matter as transporting grain. Li Fu now had some vague enlightenment, and he hurriedly got dressed. He asked in a low voice, "Where is General Yu now?"

The two guards hurriedly explained: "General Yu has now transported the grain and grass to the rear camp, and it is estimated that he is now checking and counting with the grain supervisor." ”

As soon as the words of the two guards fell, a very serious female voice immediately came from outside the Chinese army's tent, "Don't bother, I have something important to find the general!" Immediately, Yu Fei was wearing a silver-white armor, with a long sword pinned to her waist, and her soul burning ghost lupa behind her back, and her hair was not very long and tied together, if you don't look carefully, you really can't see that this is a woman.

Li Fu knows Yu Fei's identity, this is not just a simple matter as Xiao Guan's main general, her identity is still the saintess of the Ming clan, and she is also an excellent soul controller. This kind of person is naturally the target of Li Fu's focus, especially the leader of the Ming clan like Yu Fei. So he tried his best to maintain a good personal relationship with Yu Fei, and Li Fu would try his best to agree to some of the help she offered. Now he hurriedly replied: "General Yu, please come in, you go out to guard, no one is allowed to come in without my order!" Li Fu turned his head and instructed the two guards.

The two guards walked out quickly, and they closed the door of this big tent of the Chinese army. Li Fu invited Yu Fei to sit down on the soft couch opposite him. "Why did General Yu come here in person, and why did the army come here in person for such a small matter of transporting grain and grass? Isn't this overkill!" Speaking of this, Li Fu poured a cup of tea unhurriedly and tasted it alone, as if nothing had happened before.

Yu Fei came to be a person and do things resolutely, she looked at Li Fu's actions and tone, and she was not polite, she directly took out a letter from Qi from her arms and handed it to Li Fu. Li Fu was taken aback when he saw this letter, because the cover of this letter was covered with a long red stripe, which was a hundred thousand urgent letters. Li Fu immediately understood why Yu Fei came here in person, not because he was transporting grain and grass, but because he wanted to hand over the letter to him.
