On the border between Jiang and Ji, in Yichang City, Jiang Wu and Gao Sheng had already received news from Jiang Yuan and knew that they were heading towards Yichang City from Ju State. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In Jiang Cheng, Tian Longzi also received the fact that Jiang Yuan was supported by two generals in a row on the eastern border.

In anger, Tian Longzi was going to the east alone and capture Jiang Yuan back to Jiang Cheng.

However, Tian Longzi had just usurped the throne and seized power, and he could not straighten out the relationship between the DPRK and China in a short period of time, and if he left Jiang Cheng, it was likely that Jiang Cheng, which was not yet peaceful, would fall into even greater chaos.

Some courtiers who followed Tian Longzi to usurp the throne urged him to stay in Jiangcheng. said that Jiang Yuan was young and could not convince the public, and the two generals would not follow him wholeheartedly, and when the situation was unfavorable, they would choose to betray. Therefore, Jiang Yuan has nothing to worry about at all.

Tian Longzi couldn't leave Jiang Cheng, and he didn't want Jiang Yuan to develop steadily, so he sent his brother Tian Wan to lead an army of 100,000 to conquer Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan, who was far away in Yichang City, did not know that Tian Longzi had sent an army to conquer him, and after the two teams converged, he began to think about capturing Ji Guo.

Ji Guo is a small country, with the strength of the whole country, and there are only 80,000 troops. And Jiang Yuan now has 100,000 troops from Yiyin City, and 50,000 defenders of Yichang City, a total of 150,000 troops, almost twice the army of Ji Guo.

Wu Yuanfeng and Gao Sheng, when they heard Jiang Yuan's plan to seize Ji Guo, they all took the initiative to ask to lead the army.

"Shaojun, I won't let General Wu go. Jiang Wen suggested to Jiang Yuan, "General Gao has been stationed in Yichang City, and he has asked him to guard here, which can be used as our stable rear." ”

I have to fight for high ascension.

The conquest of Ji Guo is likely to be the result of victory, although they all participated in the war, killing the enemy in the front and supporting in the rear are not the same credit. Wu Yuanfeng sent someone to welcome Jiang Yuan out of Ju Kingdom, which was already a great achievement, if he continued to gain merit, it would be a head higher than him.

Jiang Yuan waved his hand to stop the noisy few people, "General Gao and Jiang Wu guard Yichang, General Wu will go to Ji Country with me." As for Jiang Wen, you continue to go to Jiang Country to contact those who are unwilling to follow Tian Longzi. ”

The 100,000 troops that arrived from Yiyin City were further divided into two parts, one part remained in Yichang and was led by Jiang Wu, and Jiang Yuan and Wu Yuanfeng only brought 50,000 people to Ji Guo.

From Yichang City to the east is a plain of thousands of miles, and Jiang Yuan led his army on a rapid march for a day, crossed the plain, and came to the first city on the border of Ji Kingdom.

"Shaojun, you will press the battle for me, I will take this city!" Wu Yuanfeng did not take Ji Guo in his eyes, and went directly to battle without resting.

Jiang Yuan also didn't feel that Ji Guo was a threat, otherwise he would not have taken Ji Guo as a target and wanted to seize Ji Guo as his base. After hearing Wu Yuanfeng's request, after a little thought, he nodded and agreed.

This battle was very easy, and Wu Yuanfeng didn't have much effort to attack the city. Moreover, Jiang Yuan's army continued to march into the interior of Ji Guo in one go, and after conquering three cities, he came to the city of Ji City, the capital of Ji Kingdom.

"Yuan Shaojun, my Ji Guo has no fault, and I don't have any grudges with you Jiang Guo, why do you want to attack my Ji Guo?" Ji Guo Jun Ji stood on the city wall, looking at the Jiang Guo army under the city, he was very panicked, and asked Jiang Yuan in a worried tone.

The division is unknown.

Under the management of the Great Zhou Dynasty, except for the head of the four towns who had more power, all vassal states were equal, and it was a very unreasonable thing to conquer other countries for no reason, and they would be punished by the Great Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, a small country like Ji Guo can be neighbors with Jiang Guo for hundreds of thousands of years.

"Who said that Ji Guo was not at fault?" Looking at the discipline on the city wall, Jiang Yuan reprimanded loudly, "Discipline, what you have done yourself, don't you want to admit it until now?"

"So, you say!"

Hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Discipline trembled with anger.

He conscientiously governed the country and carefully handled relations with his neighbors, fearing that he would cause chaos at home or oppression from his neighbors. I didn't expect him to put in so much effort, and he still got the result of a big soldier pressing the realm so far.

"Okay, then I'll make it clear. Jiang Yuan's face showed a faint smile, he pointed to discipline with his hand, and continued to reprimand him, "Every year, all the vassal states have to pay tribute to the Great Zhou Dynasty to worship their ancestors, and the tribute is first handed over to the four towns by the vassal states, and then the four towns pay to the dynasty. And this year, the date for the tribute has passed, and I ask you, where is the tribute of Ji Guo?"

"Our Ji Guo has already paid it!"

Hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Discipline was angry and angry, and he felt aggrieved, but he couldn't help but explain. Because according to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if the vassal states do not pay tribute, it is a book that forgets their ancestors, and the world will discuss it.

"Why didn't I Jiang Guo receive it?" Jiang Yuan said coldly, "Discipline, don't you want to get away with it! Ji Guo doesn't pay the tribute to the ancestors, and the heavens are intolerable, I will come to Xingshi on behalf of the Great Zhou Dynasty to ask for guilt!"

"I already paid it! I paid it two months ago! It was sent to Jiang Cheng by my son Ji Chang in person!" Discipline didn't want to be deducted from this hat, and argued loudly to Jiang Yuan under the city.

"Sent to Jiang Cheng?" Jiang Yuan laughed, "To whom did you send it to Jiang Cheng?"

"Handed over to ......" discipline's eyes flickered.

When Ji Chang set out from Ji Guo with ancestral tribute, it happened to be the period when Jiang was in turmoil and Tian Longzi usurped the throne.

When Ji Chang arrived in Jiangcheng, he learned that Tian Longzi had usurped the throne and became the new monarch of Jiang State. Faced with this situation, the young Ji Chang didn't think much about it, and still paid the tribute to Jiang Guo according to the previous practice, and then asked Tian Longzi to issue him a voucher.

Back in Ji Guo, Discipline knew about it and didn't think much about it.

At this time, they all thought that the Jiang family had no hope of recovering the country, and the new monarch of the Jiang country would be surnamed Tian from now on.

But now, Jiang Yuan came to their country with the army, and accused him of not paying the tribute to the ancestors, and there is only one feeling of discipline now, that is, the baby's heart is bitter!

"Jiang Guo is now Tian Longzi as the monarch!" Discipline can't help but defend himself.

Ji Guo has already paid the tribute according to the regulations, as for Jiang Guo's problem, it is Jiang Guo's business, how can Ji Guo be blamed?

"The Jiang family is the monarch of the Jiang State canonized by the Great Zhou Dynasty, and now you say that the monarch of the Jiang Kingdom is Tian Longzi, could it be that you want to be the king of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"

Hearing the words of discipline, the smile on Jiang Yuan's face became even stronger. Discipline was in a panic, more mistakes were made, and now there was another reason to blame him.

"Father, don't pay attention to this person! They have the intention of invading our country, can we just rely on our mouths to tell them back? They are trying to add to the crime, so there is no excuse for it!"

Behind the discipline stood a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a big bow on his shoulder, pointing at the city with his finger, and shouted angrily: "The surname Jiang, your Jiang country has been usurped, why don't you go to the usurper and run our Ji country to play prestige?"

As he spoke, he had already taken the bow off his shoulder, pulled the bow and set the arrow, and pointed directly at Jiang Yuan, "Jiang Yuan, eat me with an arrow!"
