Chapter 455 Zhaoqi dispatches troops, Jingyang asks for a plan, and Bai Qi disembarks

Shouchun City.

Order Yin Zhaoqi stood on the chariot and looked down on all directions.

In front of Zhaoqi, 35,000 Chu soldiers stood solemnly.

After the successive failures and internal strife of Chu, this was already all the troops Zhao Qi could collect.

According to the information Zhao Qi received during this time, although Jingyang tried his best to recruit troops, it is only 17,800, or even less than 20,000 people.

Zhao Qi was full of confidence and waved his hand: "Set out!"

As long as Jingyang can be eliminated, the entire Chu State can return to Zhaoqi's hands.

This expedition was both impatient and forced to do it for Zhao Qi.

Although Zhao's attack on South Korea can give Chu a temporary breath, what will happen after South Korea's demise?

Zhao State will not give any country time. If Zhao Qi wants time, he must seize the time himself.

Now that the situation in Chu is so deteriorating, Zhao Qi can only do what he should do step by step. As for how to deal with Zhao's attack in the future... Such a disappointing thing will be discussed after destroying Jingyang.

Behind Zhao Qi, the new King of Chu, who had just succeeded to the throne, stared at Zhao Qi away with complicated eyes.

After returning to Shouchun, Zhaoqi took advantage of the contribution of supporting the new king and the advantage of military power in hand to purge the Chu political arena. Those ministers loyal to the Chu royal family were either deposed and exiled or directly killed. Now the entire Shouchun is already Zhaoqi's world.

Jingyang soon learned that Zhaoqi sent troops.

Jing Yang was very calm about this. He did not even call a meeting with his confidant. He just gave an order to the person who reported the news: "Go and invite the chief minister."

After a while, a slow footsteps came into Jing Yang's ears, and a teasing tone followed: "Your Majesty is so calm, he doesn't look like a dying person."

After supporting the new king, Jing Yang gave himself a title of lord without hesitation.

Jing Yang smiled slightly and looked up and said, "I wonder how the Changshi commented on the two beauties last night?"

The current chief minister, the former envoy of Zhao State, sat in front of Jing Yang, pounded his waist hard, and said, "My king once said that women are all red pink skeletons. After experiencing them personally, I realized that what my king said is true."

The two looked at each other and laughed.

After laughing for a while, Jing Yang said seriously: "Now Zhaoqi sent 30,000 troops from Shouchun to attack me. I am about to arrive. I wonder why the Chief Secretary will teach me?"

The messenger looked strange and after a while, he said, "I am a spy from Zhao State, but the emperor came to ask me for advice. How could this be the case in the world?"

Jing Yang shook his head and said, "Now Zhao Qi is powerful. Although there are many officials under my command, I had known that they had been shaken. I was just waiting for Zhao Qi to defeat me before surrendering to Zhao Qi. How could I ask them for advice? Although the Changshi was a spy from Zhao Qi, he came here with a person who disrupted the mission of Chu, which is trustworthy."

The envoy shrugged and said, "Isn't the Chu State messy enough now? In fact, a certain mission had been completed long ago. If the emperor had not necessarily detained someone here, he would have returned to Handan and sing every night."

Jing Yang smiled and said, "Can the Chief Secretary not be able to sing and sing every night here? Besides, if I could win, the State of Chu must have been extremely weak. Wouldn't it make the Chief Secretary even more contributions?"

The messenger sighed: "If the eunuch-ruler knew that I had become a senior official here, I am afraid that it would not be a matter of making contributions or not."

Having said that, the messenger still gave Jingyang an idea.

"Your Majesty, if you talk about war, you will naturally not be worthy of carrying your boots, but you have an idea to ask you to consider it."

Jingyang was overjoyed and said, "I'm just about to ask the Chief Secretary to teach me."

The envoy said seriously: "What is the reason behind Zhaoqi's hastily sent troops to destroy the emperor?"

Jing Yang said: "Of course I want to truly control the Great Chu regime and eliminate our Jing family."

The messenger smiled and said, "It is true, everyone knows the so-called Zhaoqi heart. So the question is, there is a family in this matter that seems to be ignored by the world."

Jing Yang was stunned for a moment and suddenly slapped his thigh: "Is the Changshi talking about Qu?"

The messenger smiled and nodded: "That's right. Qu's family is also one of the three major families. If Zhao's family destroyed Jing's family, wouldn't Qu'er be afraid of following in the footsteps of Jing's family? Although Qu'er is openly obeying Zhaoqi, if he has no idea about this, it is probably impossible."

Jingyang pondered for a moment and said, "So, the Changshi meant that I wanted me to join forces with Qu to fight against Zhao, which is a very good way... But now that Zhao is powerful and Qu is a mess again. How can we ensure success?"

The messenger shrugged and said, "This is the problem of the Lord himself."

Jing Yang was stunned and then smiled: "Yes, this is true. Please rest assured that a more beautiful woman will go to the Changshi's room tonight."

The envoy stood up and bowed to Jingyang: "Thank you for your reward. Also, please ask me to send only one woman this time. Too much is as bad as too much, too much is as bad as too little."

Jingyang laughed and waved his hand and said, "The Chief Secretary will go to enjoy himself, and I will pay attention to other matters."

The messenger left with a smile, walked out of the door and sighed, shook his head and left.

Huaihe River.

The Huai River is surging, with hundreds of boats racing, hundreds of ships of all sizes sailing on the water, and the black flags cover the sky and the sun.

The white rose stood on the warship, the river breeze surging, and the black hair on the temples was blowing.

Behind Bai Qi, two "guides" officials from Zhao and Jing stood on their own.

Although the spring breeze is refreshing, Jiang Feng Lielie slapped his face to a different feeling. The two of them were trembling with the spring breeze, but they didn't even dare to say a word, which was quite embarrassed.

A city appeared in front of him, and the Chu official from Jing clan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "General, Qisi County is ahead. When you arrive here, you are only two days away from Anfeng City where Jingyang is located."

Bai Qi nodded slowly and said, "Very good. If you pass the order, the entire army will be docked and the boat will be siege the city, and no one is allowed to escape!"

After a pause, Bai Qi turned his gaze to the Zhao official.

The Zhao family official was shocked and hurriedly smiled and said, "General, now the Zhao family has known the news that the Xiaguan was arrested. Only when the Zhao family's territory can the Xiaguan find another way."

Bai Qi snorted softly and suddenly said, "If I tell you two, what do you think if you have the opportunity to become the emperor of Chu State in the future?"

The two officials were stunned at the same time and didn't know what to do.

Bai Qi smiled slightly and stopped talking.
