Tian Dan's voice was very low, obviously he had been worried about this for a long time.

Subsequently, Tian Dan elaborated on the matter of 'low morale of the army', and there was no lack of admiration for Le Yi, the commander of the Yan army outside the city-

After organizing several large-scale attacks on [Jimo] to no avail, the Yan people changed their strategy and never launched any more attacks on Jimo, and even the scouts no longer tried to infiltrate the city...... Le Yi began to adopt a firm 'Huairou strategy'.

If the Yan Kingdom has been attacking the city fiercely, then the Qi people will naturally unite.

However, the Yan people not only stopped attacking the city, but also comforted the Qi people - the Qi people in the city could not defend it, resulting in the land outside the city being barren, and the Yan army even helped the Qi people to reclaim the land for free.

All this is carried out under the noses of the people of Jimoqi.

Yan's strategy of attacking the heart clearly paid off - Jimo's will to resist was greatly reduced, so that no one was willing to fight again.

If it weren't for the last tiger skin banner of 'King Qi's field', it would be hung in Jimo, plus Tian Dan, the main general, would eat and live with the soldiers and be strict with himself...... I'm afraid that the Jimo people have already voted.

Tian Dan finally took a deep breath and said with some sadness: "All in all, our army's fighting spirit has declined. ”

"If you keep the status quo and continue to hold on, you may be able to resist...... But if they take the initiative to go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with the Yan people, who are fierce and have always been gentle, I am afraid it will be difficult to do it. ”

"Le Yi's heart-attacking strategy has worked-Jimo people, they don't want to fight for a long time!"

Xiong Wuliang nodded.

No wonder this Tian Dan is so resistant to his own words, and even publicly stated that he 'can't beat it'.

Let's just say that there are more than 30,000 people in the city, and there are 20,000 troops - the quality of these 20,000 'Qi troops' can be imagined.

Presumably, as long as they can hold a sword and draw a bow, regardless of gender, old and young, they are all incorporated into the 'militia' array by Tian Dan.

Such an 'army' can barely reach the number of people when it is used to defend the city - if it goes out of the city to fight, it will definitely collapse at the touch of a button.

The quality of the personnel was extremely low, and as a result, the will to fight was almost ...... Why win? can guarantee that Jimo City will not mutiny now, which has already shown that Tiandan's organizational ability and personal charm are quite corrupt.

Even Zhao Slip, who has always been cunning and cunning, frowned and made a difficulty.

Tian Di, Zhao Hua, Tian Dan, and Shao Hu all looked at Xiong Wuliang...... Tian Dan pursed his lips, and said in his heart, you should know how difficult it is now, right?

As a result, Xiong Wuliang smiled, and Zhizhu was in his hand.

"Benhou has his own way."

What's the solution? Plagiarism according to the strategy of Tian Dan in real history...... No! Copy your homework!

……

Yan country, Jicheng.

Jicheng is the royal capital of the old Yan Kingdom, and it has a long history - since a certain ancestor of the Yan Kingdom conquered the 'Ji Kingdom', he moved the royal capital here.

After that, the capital of the Yan Kingdom was changed several times due to wars and civil strife, and finally returned to Jicheng after going around and around.

In addition to the ethereal reason of the 'Mandate of Heaven', it is also due to the geographical location of [Jicheng] is very advantageous - from the pre-Qin period to later generations, Jicheng has always been an important hub of economy, transportation and military of various dynasties.

The name of Jicheng has also been changed several times in thousands of years of Chinese history, and has been called 'Jicheng', 'Yandu', 'Yanjing', 'Dadu', 'Beiping', 'Shuntianfu' and so on.

In later generations, the location of the ancient Jicheng was probably the area from Xuanwu Gate to Heping Gate in the southwest of Beijing.

And at this moment, Jicheng is in the midst of a bizarre commotion-

"I heard...... That news? ”

"Don't say more, don't say more! Beware of causing trouble! ”

"Chang Guojun actually ...... It's no wonder that a small Jimo city has been fighting for two years......"

"Shh......h Don't say anything more, be careful to cause trouble to you and me! ”

In the hidden streets and alleys, there are people watching everything in the dark...... Seeing that the rumors had spread like wildfire, he smiled imperceptibly.

It was the spies of Qingyuwei who spread the rumors.

In the palace of Jicheng, there was already a commotion - Ji Lezi, the crown prince of the prison country, panicked, grabbed several ministers and asked, "How is this good?" ”

"How's that okay?"

The ministers of Yan looked at each other, and they didn't know what to say for a while-there was news that Changguo Jun Le Yi was holding his troops to respect himself and intended to be the king in Qidi!

Hiss......

It sounds outrageous, but it does hit the doubts and pain points of the ministers of Yan State. In fact, there are many ministers in the Yan State who are dissatisfied with Le Yi - there is only one lonely city left in the current Qi State, Jimo, and the 200,000 army has surrounded it for two years, but it can't be defeated?

At the beginning, Yaqing Le Yi led 200,000 troops to sweep through the entire territory of Qi country, as if it were devastated...... Now it has been overwhelmed for a long time in front of a small coastal city?

Even if you use human life ants to attack the city, you should have taken it a long time ago!

Le Yi's official statement is to be gentle in order to win the hearts of the people...... But many ministers have a lot of criticism of Le Yi.

Now the scary explanation is here - the reason why Le Yi has not broken the city for a long time is because he wants to support his own army! Thus reigning in the land of Qi!

Scald!

One thing to say, it's not impossible...... Le Yi was in charge of the coup d'état in Yan State, and the 200,000 Yan troops under his command were all trained by this Yaqing. The next feat of defeating the Qi State made Le Yi extremely prestigious in the hearts of the 200,000 Yan army.

The heart of the soldier has the merit of the world...... Suspiciously besieged the last small city under the control of the Qi State and did not fight.

It's too scary!

……

Finally, the minister of Yan Guo spoke: "Since this matter has come out, even if it is groundless, we have to guard against it." ”

"It's just that the matter is big, and in the opinion of the ministers, we should quickly send a messenger to the king to send a message to the king, and ask the king to make a decision himself!"

Prince Ji Lezi nodded again and again: "Yes, yes...... When a large army is out on battle, do not act as a commander...... Fast! Quickly send an envoy to Yunmengze to ask the king! ”

Suddenly, another wise minister came out and said: "Prince Mingjian-this matter will not come sooner or later, but it will make trouble when the king leaves the parliamentary alliance...... Could it be that Chang Guojun seized the opportunity and wanted to take advantage of the king's departure from the country? ”

As soon as he said this, Ji Lezi was even more confused!

The ministers of the court and the central government gasped even more - if this is the case, then send a messenger to Yunmengze to find the king for instructions, I am afraid it will be too late!

"For the sake of today's view, be prepared - in the opinion of the minister, you should immediately summon the king of Chang to return to Jicheng and explain your heart in person......"

"If the monarch of Chang is ordered to return to China, the prince can rest assured; If he disobeys the order and does not come, he must have two hearts! The wise minister said.

The prince, who didn't have much experience in dealing with things, had already panicked, and when he heard this, he just nodded again and again-

"That's a great thing...... As you say......"

(See Note: Today's third shift.) The prince of Yan in this chapter is the 'King of Yan Hui' in later generations, and the name of this King Yan Hui is not recorded in the history books...... I really haven't found out the real name of this guy. In desperation, I can only adopt the statement of "The Chronicles of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty", called "Ji Lezi")

(But please note to the reader - the Eastern Zhou Dynasty Chronicles say that the name of King Yanhui is Lezi, but 'Lezi' is actually the name of the annotator of the historical records - this statement is wrong)
