I’m The King Chapter 874: : Sunrise East (99)
It was mid-November, and the first heavy snowfall arrived as expected on the land of western Liaoning. In other words, the cruel facts make people feel colder than the severe cold weather
The fact that Tian Fucheng led the army has been away for nearly half a month, and finally entered Changshou, which was heavily besieged, through some channels. Desperation spread among every soldier of the Qi army. There was no food inside, no reinforcements outside, and they were on the verge of extinction. This is the true portrayal of them now. They were originally counting on Tian Fucheng to lead the army to help, to cooperate internally and externally, to break through the encirclement of the Zhengdong Army, and Huo Siwei's wanton destruction in Hejian attracted the encirclement and suppression of the Zhengdong Army to relieve the pressure, but Huo Siwei , Wang Pei has already left with Tian Fucheng, and all the hopes have faded away. The only foreign aid Tian Jingwen has only 5,000 troops under his command. After half a month of persistence at Xiaoshan Pass, he finally couldn't resist Zheng Yangyang, Ding Wen, As well as Zhang Hongyu's two-sided attack in Qingtian County, he suffered heavy losses. Tian Jingwen led the remaining troops and retreated into Xiaoshan Mountain. Langya and Liaoxi reunited and completely blocked Tian Dan's way to break through
Difficulties have come, the soldiers have fallen to the lowest point, and the most serious problem is that there is almost no food, and the army has begun to slaughter mules and horses. The weather is getting colder and colder. The things for heating have almost been burned, and the bleak scene in the entire defense zone makes everyone feel extremely chilling
But around them, the offensive rhythm of Zhengdong Army has slowed down instead. The daily routine attack is more like perfunctory, and the troops who attack each time are different. The experienced Tian Shan, was shocked to find that Gao Yuan actually regarded him as an object of military training. Among the attacking teams, a large number of new recruits appeared repeatedly
This fact greatly shattered Tian Dan's self-esteem, and he was furious. He organized a large-scale counterattack, never wanting to fall into Gao Yuan's trap again. The Eastern Expedition Army lured the counterattacking troops to an open area, and then launched an attack with a large-scale cavalry. This time, thousands of elite counterattacks were killed or captured, and few of them were able to return to the camp.
This is the last counterattack organized by Tian Dan. Since then, the Qi army's counterattack has completely stopped
In the deserted big tent, Tian Dan was wrapped in a heavy fur and sat by the fire. In the entire defensive area, he is the only one who is still supplying firewood every day
"Master, what exactly does Gao Yuan want to do?" Qin Shaowei, a counselor who sat huddled by the side, asked in a low voice, "If he launches an attack now, we will definitely be unable to stop it."
"What is he waiting for? He's waiting for me to surrender!" Tian Dan showed a gloomy look on his face, "Our army has run out of food and grass, and the weather is getting colder every day. Apart from surrendering, we really have no other choice." Select"
Hearing the meaning of Tian Dan's words, the astonishment on Qin Shaowei's face disappeared in a flash. Now that things have come to an end, there is indeed only one way to go, surrender. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something. But didn't say it out
"You want to ask, since I have decided to surrender, why am I still suffering here? It also makes the soldiers even more resentful?" Tian Dan looked at Qin Shaowei
"Yes, that's exactly what I don't understand." Qin Shaowei nodded and said
Tian Dan smiled bitterly, "I'm waiting for news from China."
"Domestic news?" Qin Shaowei asked in confusion
"Second brother assisted Huo Siwei, Wang Pei and others returned to the Qi Kingdom, so naturally they wanted to kill the boss and replace him with me." Tian Dan raised his head, "I'm waiting for the news that he won and got his wish. When he succeeds, I will naturally surrender to Gao Yuan."
"Why?"
"Why. I don't want to be Gao Yuan's target!" Tian Dan sighed, "What I'm most afraid of is that the second brother's behavior is not secret, and the boss knows. A large-scale civil war, then the country of Qi is really over."
Qin Shaowei remained silent. In his heart, even if Tian Dan was gone, Tian Yuanyuan would be the most suitable candidate. Tian Fucheng, brave is brave, but it is indeed not the figure of a wise master
"I know what you think in your heart, but now, Qi State only needs one voice, and only one voice can concentrate the power of the whole country to resist foreign aggression. My defeat has shaken the foundation of Qi State. The foreign enemy, who is eyeing on tigers, will not miss this opportunity, and will definitely take advantage of the situation, so even if the second child does not have the appearance of a master, it is better than nothing if he sits on it." Tian Dan said slowly
"Xiangye, although the country of Qi suffered such a great defeat, as long as he is still there, as long as he can go back, the resurgence of Qi country is not a dream, so please don't be pessimistic, but should be ambitious." Qin Shaowei comforted
"I'm already sixty-five!" Tian Dan stretched out his hands to lift the white hair that was flying around his ears, and sighed, "It's rare for a human to live to be seventy, so how many days do I have left? Originally, I wanted to take advantage of it The energy is good, and I will build a stable country for the Qi State and strengthen my strength to cope with the sweeping trend of the Qin State in the future. The greed of this thought has brought the Qi State into the abyss. I have become a sinner of the Qi State "
"Man's calculation is not as good as heaven's calculation. How could we have expected that the Donghu Iron Cavalry, who once shocked the world, would be so vulnerable and defeated so quickly in front of the Zhengdong Army, even if they just lasted for a few more months. , Victory will belong to us, this is God bless us!" Qin Shaowei said with red eyes
"God does not bless Daqi!" Tian Dan's eyes straightened, "Is God really blessing this Gaoyuan?"
The two of them were relatively silent, now that the matter has come to an end, what can the husband say?
There was the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, an officer trotted in, bowed to Tian Dan and said, "Master, there is news from the front battalion, the special envoy of Zhengdong Army, the chief negotiator of the Zhengdong Mansion, Jiang Jiaquan, is asking to see him."
"It's finally here!" Tian Dan glanced at Qin Shaowei, "The one who should come will always come, Shao Wei, you go to greet me for me!"
"Yes, Master Xiang!" Qin Shaowei stood up
"Master, do you want to make preparations to give this special envoy a blow?" The officer hesitated and said
Tian Dan waved his hand, "People are killed by knives, and I am fish. Why do you need to be a laughingstock? Go ahead and invite Jiang Yizheng in. He is the number two man in Zhengdong Mansion. He came to give me an ultimatum. It also gave me enough face"
Qin Shaowei and the officer hurried away, Tian Dan stood up. Walking to the bronze mirror in the room, he looked at his haggard face. With mottled white hair, he shook his head, "Come here, prepare me some hot water and clean clothes. I want to take a shower and change clothes."
Outside Changshou City, the defense zone that once stretched for dozens of miles has already been riddled with holes. The fronts of the enemy and ourselves are intertwined. After the first heavy snowfall, both sides seem to have a tacit understanding, sticking to their respective positions, and there has never been any friction. For the Qi army, in this situation, surrendering to the opponent seems to be There is the only way out, and for Zhengdong Army, it is on such a icy and snowy land. It is also an expression of sympathy for the soldiers that the superiors no longer order the attack, let alone. The enemy is already the softshell turtle, as long as they are trapped, the opponent will starve to death
The nearest defense line of Zhengdong Army has reached less than one mile from Changshou County, but on his left and right, there are still two defensive positions of Qi Army. At this moment, a group of more than a hundred soldiers armed The giant shield is around Jiang Jiaquan. They moved forward slowly, until they were only four or five hundred steps away from Changshou County. Only then did they stop, and they were behind them on the position of the Eastern Army. More than a thousand cavalry led by Luo Lei stand on horseback and may launch a charge at any time. Once the opponent makes any changes, they will be dispatched immediately to **** Jiang Jiaquan back
The city gate of Changshou County was wide open, and two teams of soldiers came out in a single file, with spears and crossbows, guarding both sides of the city gate. city gate
Qin Shaowei rushed out, walked through the jungle of soldiers, and strode towards the shield soldiers of the Zhengdong Army
The shield soldiers separated left and right like a tide, and Jiang Jiaquan walked out with a smile
"Jiang Yizheng, who has admired his great name for a long time, is finally able to see him today, very lucky!" Qin Shaowei cupped his fists and bowed to the ground
"Mr. Qin has said it already!" Jiang Jiaquan returned the gift with a smile, "When Mr. Qin helped Tian Xiangyi to soar into the sky in Qi State, Jiang was still in poverty in Yuyang. Mr. Qin's name, to me, is truly It's like thunder"
"For many years, a blockbuster, like Mr. Jiang, who would rather not be stunned if he doesn't meet the wise master, is a master!" Qin Shaowei sighed: "Now you and I, one is winning, and the other is on the verge of extinction. , Let the judgment be judged!"
Jiang Jiaquan smiled slightly, "Mr. Qin, you and I don't need to brag about each other. My family's governor is still in the camp waiting for me to bring back the results of my negotiations with Prime Minister Tian. Let's go to the city. It's freezing cold, you and me Soldiers must be tired of it"
"Please!" Qin Shaowei waved his hand
Jiang Jiaquan turned around and waved at the guards behind him. He was so single, and followed Qin Shaowei into the city unsteadily.
Tian Dan is sitting on the main seat, and he has freshened up ~IndoMTL.com~ At this moment, he can't see the previous depression and oldness at all, and he looks energetic. Seeing Jiang Jiaquan stepping into the room, he stands get up
"Jiang Jiaquan, who is in charge of the Eastern Mansion, has met Tian Xiang!" Jiang Jiaquan clasped his fists and bowed to salute
"Jiang Yizheng doesn't need to be polite, please sit down." Tian Dan nodded, turned around and said to the guard on the side: "Show Jiang Yizheng a seat"
Jiang Jiaquan sat down gracefully and looked up at the world-renowned Chief Assistant of the State of Qi. At the same time, Tian Dan was watching this Gao Yuan's chief counselor. It was also spread all over the world with the Zhengdong Army. It was only at this time that someone dug up Jiang Jiaquan's past. Tian Dan looked at each other and thought enviously, why didn't he meet such a person himself?
(Okay, I admit, I’m an uninspired person. I established a country with a lofty background. What kind of country name do I take? After joining Wolf Warriors, it makes people quite excited. I also like Datang’s inclusiveness and self-confidence. After hesitating for a few days, I decided to stick to Han. Chapter 100 ends at Sunrise East, so the name of the next chapter is It’s called Huanghuang Hanwei!) (to be continued)
