"Da Sima, didn't you say that Zhao Tuo garrisoned Dongyuan, but waited for the edict of the King of Qin to go north to chase Hu and occupy Liaodong, so that we don't have to worry?"

"How come it is that in the blink of an eye, there is such a large number of troops in the Qin State gathered in Dongjun, and the Qin general Zhao Tuo also led the troops south, what is going on? You say! ”

After the panic, immediately the Minister of Qi pointed the finger at the Great Sima Tian Chong.

Tian Chong's face became redder and redder.

He swore in the court that he would promise Zhao Tuo to come, but he didn't know that this slap in the face would come so quickly.

Tian Chong wanted to say that he was also deceived by Zhao Tuo and fell for the tricks of the Qin people.

But after thinking about it carefully, he found that Zhao Tuo never said that he wanted to go to Liaodong, but only asked himself how to deal with the Hu people in the slip.

At that time, the news that Qin was about to conquer Liaodong was circulating everywhere, which made Tian Chong link the two things together, and mistakenly thought that Zhao Tuo was going to lead the army to conquer Liao.

Did I misunderstand?

Faced with the questions of the ministers, Tian Chong held back for a long time.

He thought of the Qi army he had just trained, and his eyes burst with brilliance again.

Tian Chong raised his head, looked at the Manchu Dynasty, and said loudly: "What are you afraid of, I said before, if the Qin people really dare to attack my Qi country, I, Tian Chong, will take action!" Why should the king and the princes be worried? ”

"In the past, Wang Jian invaded Chu, and a ruined Chu state was still able to recruit an army of 400,000. I have a land of 2,000 miles, hundreds of thousands of armor, Su is like a hill and a mountain, and I am rich in the world, so can't I levy hundreds of thousands of troops? ”

"What if the Qin State sent 200,000 troops, I don't need 400,000 troops to bully him. Only ask the king to give an order to recruit an army of 300,000 to reject the Qin people! ”

Tian Chong waved his arm, spat flying, and said: "If the Qin army adopts Wang Qian's old strategy, it will fight for the consumption of national strength. The grain and straw in the warehouse of our Qi State can support an army of 300,000 for several years, and it will never repeat the mistake of having no grain in the Chu State in the past, which is enough to consume the Qin people to the point that they cannot support it. ”

"If the Qin army comes to attack, then our army is 300,000, which is more than the number of his Qin army. There are even more elite pawns, who can fight against ten enemies, so why be afraid of him in a head-on battle? ”

"And the Qin people came in violation of the covenant, which is an unrighteous act, and it will surely lose people's hearts and demoralize. And I all defend the family and the country, which is the great righteousness, and everyone must be brave. I fight against an unrighteous country with a righteous state, why should I not be victorious? ”

"Not to mention, I have been in Xianyang Palace, and I have already figured out the details of the generals of the Qin State. No matter who the Qin army is the general this time, I, Tian Chong, are not afraid. ”

Tian Chong said in the end, he was already full of energy and high spirits.

Affected by the arrogance of Da Sima, Qi Wangjian and Xiang Bangtian Jiao, who were still a little afraid, as well as the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, also cheered up.

Yes, their Qi State is not comparable to the crippled Chu State in the past.

The country of Qi has a vast terrain, has the benefit of fish and salt, and is rich in products.

There is money, there is food, and there are people.

What about the 200,000 Qin army?

They can recruit an army of 300,000!

300,000 beats you 200,000, and you still can't win?

Not to mention the chief general of Qi State, Da Sima, who led the troops, was the first general of Qi State, although he suffered a small loss at the hands of Qin general Zhao Tuo, but it was only because Zhao Tuo did not talk about martial arts and played sneak attack tricks.

In terms of ability, Da Sima is an invincible man in the Qin Palace.

Listening to Da Sima's penetrating analysis, Qi Wangjian thought of the elite strong pawn he had seen on the school field before, and his confidence skyrocketed.

In front of the Manchu minister, he ordered with a smile.

"What Da Sima said is reasonable, my Qi country is rich in land and resources, and the soldiers are strong and strong, so why should I be afraid of the Qin people. This time, Da Sima was responsible for all anti-Qin matters, and recruited 300,000 troops to reject the Qin people! ”

"Please rest assured, the king will let the Qin people who dare to step into my Qi land have no return!"

Da Sima Tian Chong shouted his order.

He turned his head to look to the west, his eyes like torches.

It would be nice if the main general of the Qin army in this battle was Zhao Tuo.

In that case, he will really be able to be ashamed.

……

"The 100,000 troops of the Qi State have been deployed on the front line of Zhencheng and Ayi, and the country is still recruiting soldiers and wants to gather 300,000 troops?"

It is located in the camp of the Qin army outside Puyang City.

This time, Zhao Tuo, the chief general in charge of cutting down Qi, and Tu Sui, the deputy general, received a spy report from the Qin people lurking inside the Qi State.

"It seems that these Qi people are not stupid."

Tu Sui smiled.

In the name of conquering Liaodong, the Qin State secretly transferred grain and straw and recruited an army of 200,000 troops, just to catch the Qi State by surprise and gain a strategic advantage.

The early preparations did deceive the Qi people, but when a large number of Qin troops began to mobilize to Dongjun, the purpose of the Qin State was still exposed.

The 100,000 Qi troops originally stationed in the western border of the Qi State immediately deployed defenses in Zhencheng and Ayi under the order of Da Sima, and acted as a stubborn defender.

At the same time, Qi also began to recruit a large number of troops to prepare for the attack of the Qin army.

However, all this was originally expected by Qin Jun.

The Qin army has already gained a huge time advantage, and the conscription of the Qi State in the state of emergency does not have time to train soldiers at all, even if the 300,000 Qi army is really conscripted, but the combat effectiveness can be imagined.

However, the lion and the rabbit also need to go all out.

Zhao Tuo knew this truth very well, and now it was the last battle of reunification, which was of great significance, he did not dare to be sloppy, and immediately convened the generals and officially began to discuss the strategy of destroying Qi.

"Zhencheng and Ayi are on the front line, although there are 100,000 Qi troops to defend, but the Qi people are weak, if our army rushes forward with the momentum of a tiger, it will be able to chop dead wood all the way like a knife, and before the rest of his army gathers, take Linzi directly!"

The deputy general, Tu Sui, spoke first, and his voice was loud.

"What General Tu said is that we should take advantage of the fact that the Qi army has not yet assembled, fight all the way to Linzi, quickly attack the city, and arrest the old man of the King of Qi, so that Qi can be decided in one battle!"

Zhong Liyi, Black Buttocks, Xi Qigu and other generals all held this opinion, and even Shiruma nodded along with him.

"Lightning tactics."

Zhao Tuo whispered in his heart, Tu Sui's point of view is to fight fast and slow, take Linzi with a very fast speed, and then slowly surrender or conquer the rest of Qi after capturing Qi Wangjian.

This tactic was supported by the majority of the generals.

But there are also other voices in the military discussion.

As General Zhao's staff, Li Shiqi spoke.

He said with a smile: "The strategy of quick attack can indeed catch Qi by surprise, and it is very likely that our army will hit near Linzi." However, from the point of view of the contemptible people, although the quick attack can make a contribution as soon as possible, it cannot eliminate the main force of the Qi State, and it cannot carry out real deterrence against the Qi people. Once our army is unable to quickly break through the Qi capital, it will inevitably stop its troops under Linzi City, and then it will be besieged by reinforcements from all over the Qi State. ”

"Siege? That's better, just like General Wang attacked Daliang in the past, trapping its capital and breaking its army, and fighting one by one! ”

The black buttocks laughed, and Xi Qigu, Bai Rong and others nodded.

Zhao Tuo's eyes narrowed slightly, and with the blitzkrieg style of play, if Linzi really couldn't be won quickly, then it could really be turned into a siege point to send reinforcements according to Wang Ben's routine of besieging Daliang back then.

"You haven't been to Linzi, the capital of Qi, so naturally you don't know the situation. The contemptible person happened to have a look. ”

Li Shiqi smiled and glanced at everyone present.

The eyes fell on the black buttocks and the others, as if they were making a silent question.

Have you ever been to Linzi?

Li Shiqi smiled lightly: "Linzi, the big city in the world!" ”

"From the country surnamed Jiang Qi to build the capital here, to the current country surnamed Qi, it has been hundreds of years, and its walls are strong and the defense is strong. The city is populated. As the so-called road to Linzi, the chariot hits, the shoulders are rubbed, the curtains are even formed, the coats are raised into curtains, and the sweat becomes rain. ”

"As Su Zi said in the past: In Linzi, there are 70,000 households, three men in the lower households, 37.21 million, not waiting to be sent to Yuanxian County, and Linzi's pawn is solid to 210,000!"

"With such a huge number of guards, their number exceeds that of the former Great Liang, and it is more comparable to the number of our Qin army. Although the Qi people have not experienced the battle array, they will fight bravely when they are destroying the country. ”

"Let me ask, with 200,000 soldiers, according to the world's fortified cities waiting for reinforcements? Do you really think that our army can quickly break through Linzihu? ”

"In the past, General Wang was able to break the beam and break the Wei army that came to help. With the help of the power of the river, the Liang Wei army was trapped in the city, so there was no need to face internal and external attacks, and only needed to deal with reinforcements. ”

"But now, our army has no big river to help, Linzi is stronger than Daliang, the number of sergeants in the city is more than Daliang, and the number of Qi troops rescued in various places is also more than that of Wei!"

"And although the Qi army has not experienced war, it was not the opponent of our Qin army at the beginning, but if the war drags on for a long time, the Qi army will grow from a new pawn to an old pawn. At that time, wouldn't it be even more difficult to destroy Qi? ”

Li Shiqi's voice was high, his words were clear, he glanced at the generals in the tent, and said lightly: "What's more, if we take the strategy of attacking Linzi by force, even if our army finally takes the Qi State, it will definitely suffer heavy losses and take a long time, so how can we give the king a glorious end to the cause of unifying the world?" How can you put the momentum of destroying Wei in the past on the destruction of Qi? Isn't this the Chu people who carved boats to seek swords in the past? ”

There was silence in the tent, and even Tu Sui, who advocated a blitzkrieg, frowned.

Li Shiqi put the data, reasoned, told the situation of Linzi City and Qi State one by one, and analyzed it, which really made everyone feel a little pressure.

The walls of Linzi are strong, and there are many people in the city, so it seems that it is really difficult to fight.

And just like Li Shiqi said, the disadvantage of the Qi army is that the soldiers have no war experience, once the time drags on for a long time, those Qi people will inevitably grow from the war, and the new pawns will become old pawns.

On the main seat, Zhao Tuo took all the faces of the generals in the tent into his eyes, and looked at Li Shiqi with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but praise it secretly in his heart.

This Li Sheng is a good mouth.

However, Zhao Tuo knew very well that the words of the lobbyist and strategist were only half listened to.

Exaggeration and hypocrisy are their characteristics.

The reason why Li Shiqi pressed the generals with his tongue in this tent is afraid that it is calculated separately.

Zhao Tuo said with a smile: "In this case, I don't know if Mr. has a strategy to destroy Qi?" ”

"Warring States Policy: Qi Ce I": 70,000 households in Linzi, the ministers steal it, three men in the lower households, 37.21 million, not waiting to be sent to the far county, and the death of Linzi is fixed with 210,000.
