It was not easy for the 100,000 Zhao army to cross the river and then set up camp, so when Bai Qi met his master's father, it was already the next night.

The Lord's father looked at Bai Qi with great interest, and couldn't help but feel curious.

"It looks like an ordinary general, why does Wang'er attach so much importance to this person?"

In this era, people are judged by their appearance. Bai Qi has a small head, a pointed chin, and a squinted eye. She is not tall, so she belongs to the less likable category.

"Meet the Lord Father."

After Bai Qi saluted to the master's father, he stood there, neither humble nor arrogant, and did not show any nervous expression.

Le Yi, who was standing beside him, looked at Bai Qi with a deep sense of gaze.

The only one who received Zhao He's advice was not the only one who was the master father.

In fact, there is no need for Zhao He's instructions, and Le Yi's impression of Bai Qi is not very good.

It's probably the kind of... just looking at him unhappy.

The Lord Father laughed and said, "Come on, don't be restrained, you're all robes, just sit down."

Bai Qi sat down.

After just sitting down, Bai Qi did not look at Le Yi, who was right opposite him, but instead looked at another person.

General Mangmao of Wei State.

The 60,000 Wei troops led by Mangmao were also just arrived today.

At this moment, the Lord Father, who was sitting at the top, cleared his throat and spoke.

"Two and three sons, now that the coalition forces gather in this Taoyi city, Taoyi naturally has to be captured first. Otherwise, if it is reported that my 400,000 army will not be able to do anything to Taoyi, wouldn't it be ridiculous?"

Nowadays, excluding the Han army that had not yet arrived, the three Qin, Zhao and Wei families gathered outside Taoyi City have as many as 240,000 troops.

As for the 400,000 mentioned by the Lord's father, of course it is to brag about his might. This is also a psychological warfare method commonly used by commanders in history.

The master's father is quite modest, like the "million-million army" that Cao Cao went to Chibi during the Three Kingdoms period, which is much more exaggerated.

I can only say that Emperor Wu of Wei was indeed a martyr who was full of ambition in his old age, and his bragging was much greater than others.

After the Lord's Father's words fell, the generals in the tent spoke in a long and spoke in a word.

"Master, I am willing to lead troops to attack the city as the vanguard, and I will let the people of Qi know about my great Zhao Xiongfeng!" Lian Po said the loudest.

"Master, father, I am willing to be the vanguard!" This is General Zhao Qi.

"Master, I am willing to lead my army to attack the city, and it will definitely be able to break it within ten days!" This is Le Yi.

Below Le Yi, there were many generals of Zhao State who were not willing to be outdone and asked for battle.

They said they were offering suggestions, but in fact they all took the opportunity to ask for battle.

After all, this is a siege battle. If you really have a tough battle, how can you have any tricks? Just be reckless.

Bai Qi sat there expressionlessly, like a sculpture.

He did not forget what his king and Junhou told him before leaving.

"Before taking Taoyi in this battle, you should follow the commander of the Zhao army."

Bai Qi is a very confident person, but he is not a fool. Of course, he also knows that Zhao State is the leader of the alliance. What's more, the leader of the Zhao army is not the one who doesn't like Le Yi, who doesn't like him, but the father of Zhao, who comes, so Bai Qi naturally has nothing to say.

But it was at this time that a word from the Lord Father reached Bai Qi's ears.

"General Bai Qi, you have defeated General Qi and besieged Taoyi for many days. What do you think about this battle?"

As soon as the Lord Father finished speaking, everyone's eyes suddenly gathered on Bai Qi.

Bai Qi was slightly surprised, obviously not expecting that the Lord's Father would ask him about him.

Bai Qi thought that since Zhao was the leader, then the master father must first let his generals of Zhao show their own attention and make some credit for this. Why did he ask for advice on himself, the general of Qin?

However, Bai Qi was very human after all. After a brief surprise, he immediately came to his senses and stood up and said, "Return to the master's father, although the Qi army in Taoyi is a remnant soldier, his will is still strong. If he wants to attack, he can only attack with force, and it will take some effort."

After hearing Bai Qi's answer, the Zhao generals present had a calmer expression like Le Yi, and they were somewhat dissatisfied with the straightforward temperament like Lian Po.

Isn't this nonsense?

The master father looked at Bai Qi for several breaths, then nodded: "General Bai Qi said very well, let's do it this way. From tomorrow, my Da Zhao will be responsible for the north city wall. General Bai Qi will still lead the Qin army to attack the west city wall, while General Mangmao will lead the Wei army to attack the south city wall. What do you think?"

The generals naturally agreed.

Just as the Lord's Father summoned the General of the Alliance to discuss matters, something was quietly happening in Taoyi City.

In the county magistrate's mansion in Taoyi City, the lights were still on in the room of the Qi army's chief general.

Touch had just finished patrolling the city wall, and was now looking at a detailed map in front of him that drew the entire Tao County terrain.

The door suddenly got knocked.

"who?"

"The head of the family is the minister."

I heard the sound of Ji Xinpiao, a close servant of his, was the voice of Ji Xinpiao.

"Come in."

Ji Xinpiao walked into the room of Shuzi with a bowl of medicine soup and carefully placed it on the table: "Master of the family, it's time to take medicine."

Shuzi couldn't help but frown when he smelled the rich and pungent smell of the medicine soup, but he naturally had to drink medicine after being injured by the arrow, so soon, a large bowl of black medicine soup was sucked by him in one go.

After drinking it, Touchi frowned and spit out a few weed-like rhizomes from his mouth, saying, "Today's medicine soup seems to be a little bitterer than before. Let's talk to the doctor and let him pay attention."

Ji Xinpiao's body trembled slightly and said respectfully: "Here."

Touch continues to look at the map in front of you.

After a while, Shuzi felt something, he looked up at Ji Xinpiao beside him with some confusion: "What are you doing here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shuzi suddenly felt his vision gradually become blurred, and his whole consciousness began to become drowsy. He was shocked and said, "This..."

Before he finished speaking, Ji Xinpiao, who was standing beside him, suddenly reached out and covered Shizi's mouth like lightning.

Chu Zi was shocked and was about to push Ji Xinpiao away, but he found that he was weak all over and could only raise his hand, and could not stop Ji Xinpiao at all.

"There is poisonous in the medicine!"

This is the last thought that flashes through my mind.

After a moment, the touch fell softly to the ground, and then there was no sound.

Ji Xinpiao stood up, breathed a sigh of relief, lifted Touch's body to the couch, covered it with a silk quilt, and blew out the oil lamp.

After everything was done, Ji Xinpiao picked up the bowl of medicine soup and opened the door and walked out. When he walked out of the yard, he did not forget to remind the captain of the guard who was on duty outside the yard: "The general is a little tired and is already resting inside. If there is nothing particularly important, he must not disturb the general!"

After receiving the affirmative answer from the captain of the guard, Ji Xinpiao left with satisfaction.

The county magistrate's mansion was very large. Ji Xinpiao took the oil lamp and walked around the corridor, and soon came to another small courtyard not far away.

In the room in the courtyard, Ji Xinpiao met Han Nie.

"General Han Nie, Touch has been poisoned by someone!" Ji Xinpiao seemed quite excited when he spoke.

Han Nie stared at Ji Xinpiao and asked, "Are you sure no one noticed it?"

Ji Xinpiao nodded vigorously and said with a smile: "That's right. When others find out tomorrow, they will probably think that the touch is a drug and die. Then the doctor will be captured and killed, that's it. Here, I would also like to congratulate General Han Nie for becoming the supreme leader in the city."

Han Nie laughed and said, "Mr. Ji is joking. I have to thank Mr. Ji for his efforts for his success this time."

Ji Xinpiao smiled so much that his eyes were twitching, and he bowed and said, "Where is, Han Jiang..."

A sharp blade suddenly penetrated Ji Xinpiao's chest, blocking all his next words back.

Ji Xinpiao's body was shocked and his eyes widened in disbelief: "General Han, you..."

Han Nie used his right hand and turned the sharp blade into Ji Xinpiao's chest for a while, and a sneer appeared on his face: "Ji Xinpiao, Ji Xinpiao, you are a spy from Yan State. You pretend to defect to you, but in fact you want to kill Shi Zi and then blame Yu Wu. Do you really think I know nothing? But what you never expected was that I just happened to take Shi Zi's life and dedicate this city to the coalition forces? Speaking of which, you have helped me."

With a bang, Ji Xinpiao's body fell to the ground and died with his eyes open.

Han Nie walked out of the door and said in a deep voice to his confidant, who had been waiting outside the door: "Go quickly to notify the waiter and say that the Shi Zi is dead. Let them immediately spread rumors in the city and incite chaos according to the previous plan!"

The dead soldier nodded and asked again: "Where is the general going?"

Han Nie smiled slightly and said, "I... of course I want to visit the main general!"

A quarter of an hour later, Han Nie asked to see the main general Shuzi in the name of emergency military affairs, and then together with Shuzi's personal guard captain, he found Shuzi's body who died of anger on the bed.

The entire county magistrate's office was immediately blocked, and then a large number of Qi soldiers held torches and searched the traces of the sinner Ji Xinpiao in the city.

After a whole night of hard work, it was a team led by General Han Nie who was personally found Ji Xinpiao in a secluded alley when dawn was about to break out, and General Han Nie killed him!

From this large-scale search, the entire Taoyi was completely in chaos.

After Chu Zi's death, several generals of Qi under his command were dissatisfied and wanted to serve as chief generals. Even a small internal conflict broke out in the county magistrate's office. In the end, Han Nie stepped forward to coordinate. The three generals of Qi decided to lead their troops to guard the city, and each was not in charge!

Under such circumstances, the morale of the military and civilians in the city has dropped to the lowest point.

At the same time, the coalition forces outside the city launched an extremely fierce offensive.

Finally, four days later, General Lian Po of Zhao was the first to climb to the top of Taoyi City.
Chapter completed!
