I’m The King Chapter 873: : Sunrise East (98)
In the state of Qi, ten miles away from Rongcheng, Tian Fucheng's face was so gloomy that water dripped out. As the forward of the army, Zhu Wei was rejected in Rongcheng. That is to say, even if someone wants to inform, it is impossible to escape the search of his own scouts. The road to Qi has been blocked. Why can Rongcheng dare to reject its own army? Outside
"General Tian, the county magistrate of Rongcheng is extremely rude. Not only did he not allow us to enter the city behind closed doors, he even refused to provide us with food and grass. Zhu Wei's face was extremely ugly when he scolded and mentioned unsavory words
"What is the magistrate scolding?" Tian Fucheng asked
"General!"
"Say!" Tian Fucheng snapped
"He, he scolded you, general, for being disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unrighteous. Conquering the Eastern Army, rescued the Prime Minister and the tens of thousands of people from the Qi Kingdom" Zhu Wei lowered his head and said in a low voice
"Bastard!" Tian Fucheng was furious immediately, "Zhu Wei, go, take your troops, and capture Rongcheng for me. I want to see what the magistrate of Rongcheng, who has eaten the guts of a leopard, will do. What ability do you have, bring him alive to me!"
"Obey!" Zhu Wei looked at Tian Fucheng with distorted face, didn't dare to say anything, turned and left
Huo Siwei and Wang Pei looked at each other, and they both saw a bad look in each other's eyes. , the real situation of our departure from Langya has already been known in the country. Now is not the time to entangle in Rongcheng. How about cleaning him up?"
Tian Fucheng stared fiercely at Huo Siwei with red eyes. "Just say what you want to say"
"Second son, Jimo, we must send troops to Jimo immediately. If we can't take Jimo quickly, then we won't be able to reach Linzi as expected. If we don't take Linzi, second son, that's really bad Ah. Let the eldest son have time to organize his troops, and then the country of Qi will fall into protracted civil strife." Huo Siwei said loudly
Tian Fucheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, Huo Siwei's words brought him back to his senses a little, he walked around the room a few times, turned around, looked at Huo Siwei, "General Huo, you will lead your troops to Jimo immediately Take him as fast as possible, the main force will have to wait here, I must raise enough food and grass. I thought I could get enough food and grass in Rongcheng, but now it seems that it will take a while Turn your hands and feet"
Huo Siwei nodded, "Okay, I'll go first, I hope Jimo is not ready yet, we can win the battle"
Tian Fucheng turned his head and looked at Wang Pei again, "General Wang, you go to Gu Cheng. See if you can get more supplements from there. I have a bad feeling. My brother, It seems that he got the news. He has taken precautions"
Wang Pei nodded silently, but he felt a little panic in his heart. If Tian Yuanyuan got the news in advance, the difficulties faced by this tens of thousands of troops would be much greater than imagined. The eldest son controls the center , has a unique advantage, if the second son can't take down Linzi as quickly as possible, and catch the eldest son, then the prospect will be very bad.
When Huo Siwei arrived at Jimo, one of the five major towns of the Qi State, a few days later, what he saw was the heavily guarded Jimo City, and the generals recruited on the city showed that it was the Qi State who was defending here Zou Zhang, a well-known veteran in the country, is a veteran of the Qi army and one of Tian Dan's older brothers who made a fortune in those years. He is a staunch supporter of Tian Dan. Prestige should not be underestimated
Seeing the old general Zou Zhang with fluttering white hair in the city, Huo Siwei couldn't help feeling guilty
"Huo Siwei, get out of here." Just as Huo Siwei was feeling guilty, there was a sudden shout of anger from the city. Huo Siwei looked up and saw Zou Zhang standing on the battlements with his legs spread apart on the top of the city, with his arms in his hands. Holding a knife in his hand, pointing at himself and shouting angrily
Huo Siwei's scalp tingled for a while, and he stepped forward slowly, "Old General Zou, please forgive me for not being able to fully salute because he is wearing armor."
"Bastard boy!" Zou Zhang yelled, "Don't forget how you climbed to where you are today. I was really blind at the beginning. How can I focus on promoting you, a white-eyed wolf? Has your conscience been eaten by a dog? ?”
Huo Siwei smiled wryly, and clasped his fists together, "Old General, the reason for this is hard to explain in a single word, and the general will have his own hidden secrets."
"You have an unspeakable fart, but as long as you have a little bit of conscience and loyalty, immediately send me an army to defeat Tian Fucheng. As long as you can do this, I can still keep you safe and prosperous." Life" Zou Zhang shouted
Huo Siwei shook his head slowly, he had already become a traitor in front of Tian Dan, if Tian Dan came back, he would be doomed, and even if Tian Dan couldn't come back, could the eldest son spare him? Huo Siwei is very aware of Tian Yuanyuan's temper, which is the same as the old man
"Old general, please forgive me for not being able to obey orders!" He raised his head, "Since the old general is in Jimo, the last general should retreat to show his respect, but when he comes back tomorrow, he will definitely attack the city with all his strength, old general, resign Already!"
Huo Siwei gave a deep salute to the city, pulled back his horses, and his 10,000 soldiers and horses also retreated slowly
Hearing Zou Zhang's scolding voice coming from behind, Huo Siwei's face became hot, but he resisted to ignore it and led his army away
Seeing Huo Siwei leave, Zou Zhang jumped down from the top of the wall, and wiped the cold sweat off his head with his hand, "It's so dangerous, fortunately it was Huo Siwei, a **** who came here, if it was Wang Pei, he would be Jimo today It's dangerous"
Behind him, Chen Daipei, a doctor stationed in Jimo, threw himself to the ground and gave Zou Zhang a thumbs up, "The old general is so majestic, he drove back Huo Siwei's tens of thousands of troops with one word."
Zou Zhang let out a long breath, "Prestige ass, didn't you see that my legs are shaking? Huo Siwei was just a little general when I was still a general, and I was step by step The one who promoted him, this kid is good at fighting, but he is also quite affectionate. He retreated today because he remembered a little incense from Lao Tzu in the past, but this kid will do what he said, and when he comes back tomorrow, he must do it with all his strength. Go, set up the city defense immediately, tomorrow, I'm afraid there will be a **** battle"
Chen Dai sighed deeply: "The same room is fighting each other, why bother?"
Zou Zhang sneered, "What is this? Tian Fucheng, a wolf-hearted boy, wants to replace Tian Xiang, or he has even greater ambitions. If he wants to do this, how can there be no reason not to shed blood?" Didn't you see that Linzi is already bleeding like a river?"
Zou Zhang arrived in Jimo, only half a day earlier than Huo Siwei, and the defense of the entire city hadn't been deployed in time. Jimo was originally an important town in the northeast of Qi, and it was always heavily guarded. Unfortunately, the army here was all captured by Tian Shan took away, and now he is trapped in the western part of Liaoning. Zou Zhang hurriedly came with only 3,000 Linzi garrison troops. Without a good defense of the city, if Huo Siwei launched a fierce attack with all his strength, Zou Zhang might not be able to defend at all. But fortunately, Huo Siwei retreated due to the dangerous move of the soldiers, buying precious time for Jimo
Huo Siwei found out the truth of the matter a little later. His scouts told him that Zou Zhang had just arrived in Jimo, and when the reinforcements were only a few thousand people, Huo Siwei was taken aback for a while, and then burst out laughing. "Unexpectedly, Old General Zou also learned to cheat. When he was young, he was a general who didn't care about fighting, as long as he had a good time. That's all, since he has already agreed to the old general, then give him a day. Three thousand people, defending a big city like Jimo, I'm afraid there will be loopholes everywhere"
After receiving this news, Huo Siwei was determined to take Jimo, and Tian Fucheng's army would be able to control the entire northeast of Qi. No matter how Linzi reacted, this army finally had foothold
But the news from the main force later dissipated Huo Siwei's joy. Zhu Wei captured Rongcheng, captured the county magistrate of Rongcheng alive, and delivered him to Tian Fucheng. The second son of Tian actually took a knife and cut the county magistrate alive one by one, and the messenger who delivered the letter said that the county magistrate kept scolding him until he died~IndoMTL.com~Until Tian Fucheng ordered someone to pull it out. his tongue
Huo Siwei sighed, why bother? If you kill, you will kill. This way of killing may deter a group of people, but I am afraid that it will have more negative effects. The second son of Tian is still inferior to the eldest son Tian in terms of the city government, but is there still a way to turn back now? ? I hope that the person I decide to follow can mature day by day
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day just after dawn, Huo Siwei's army marched towards Jimo again. In one night, his army had already accumulated countless siege equipment. These were all improvised last night. The coming Jimo war is about to break out
Just as the Qi civil war kicked off, in Linyi, where Ju, one of the five capitals of Qi, belonged, Qu Wan, a general of Chu State, was frowning as he looked at the batches of troops passing by him. The garrison army conscripted from all over Chu State, in Qu Wan’s view, is completely a garbage army. A group has been eliminated after high-intensity marching. Now he is carrying out cruel training. The elimination rate may reach 100%. More than 50 people, when all this is completed, the army will arrive here from all over the country with a total of more than 100,000 troops, and there will be a maximum of 50,000 people
But enough is enough! Qu Wan said in his heart, the people of Qi State are about to fight themselves, this is really a good opportunity for Chu State, if they can take Linyi, close to take Ju, and then take advantage of the opportunity to dig more benefits ( To be continued)
