"According to the agreement between the king and your State of Chu, if the Chu army rescued Linzi, ten cities including Ju County can be assigned to the State of Chu."

The chief general of the Qi army, Tian Ji, met with the chief general of the Chu army, Fan Zeng, and reiterated the conditions of King Wei of Qi, and his heart was as if he had been cut off.

These cities were the territory that famous generals of Qi State such as Tian Ji, Sima Rangju, and finally captured. In order to protect the capital, they could only bear the pain of ceding the cities and borrowing troops from Chu State.

"Let's say yes, I am the leader of the alliance. If there are any differences when using troops, I will focus on my ideas."

Fan Zeng took the upper hand and maintained the hegemony of Chu.

“This is nature.”

Tian Ji's troops in his hands were not as strong as Fan Zeng, so he could only agree to Fan Zeng's conditions.

Although the personal abilities of the generals can affect the outcome, it is hard to cook without rice, and national strength still accounts for the majority.

Fan Zeng's eyes swept over the Qi army military advisors and a group of Qi generals behind Tian Ji, with a hint of fanaticism.

If we could conquer these famous generals of Qi and use them for our own use, then the Great Chu would have the opportunity to unify the world.

There was one person in Tian Ji's Qi army, who Fan Zeng cared the most, that was Tian Ji's military advisor, Sun Bin.

Fan Zeng attacked Qi many times, but he returned in vain, mostly because of Sun Bin.

Sun Bin saw through Fan Zeng's many strategies, which led to Fan Zeng's attack on the front, and the progress of the Chu army was slow.

Not only Sun Bin, but also many famous generals in Qi State, Tian Pan and Kuang Zhang, were also in Tian Ji's army.

It was precisely because these ruthless men led their troops to resist the Chu army in Ju County that the four armies of Fenglin and Volcano in Chu could not go north, but instead allowed Zhuge Liang and Li Ji to take advantage of the situation and the troops arrived at Qi Capital.

Sun Bin and Fan Zeng looked at each other, ignoring Fan Zeng's mental attacks and mind reading skills, impeccable and calm expressions.

He is really not afraid of Fan Zeng's plan.

Sun Bin was equivalent to Zhang Liang and Chen Ping's type of counselor during the Chu-Han period. His wisdom was no less than Fan Zeng, and he was even stronger.

The reason why the Qi army was on the defensive was not because the Qi army was plotted by Fan Zeng, but because the Chu State's national strength was stronger.

Tian Pan, Kuang Zhang and other Qi generals seemed dissatisfied with Fan Zeng as the commander of the coalition, but because this was King Wei of Qi's decision, they resisted the attack.

"What a strong momentum..."

Li Wenzhong, a powerful general of the Ming Dynasty brought by Zhu Youjian, was now looking at the Chu generals behind Fan Zeng.

Long Qi, Ji Bu, Zhongli Mei, and Yang Youji, which replaced Yingbu, the four main generals of Fenglin Volcano, are as powerful as dragons and tigers, and are extremely powerful. Especially Long Qi, Yang Youji, gives Li Wenzhong a sense of danger.

Li Wenzhong had a fight with Long Qi, but was defeated by Long Qi.

However, Li Wenzhong's ability to use troops is better than Long Qi, and Long Qi cannot get much benefit from Li Wenzhong's hands.

Qi, Chu, and Ming formed an alliance in Ju County, with Fan Zeng as the head commander, Tian Ji, Zhu Youjian as the deputy head commander, Sun Bin and Yan Zi as military advisors, and led 500,000 troops to support Linzi and rescued the Qi capital.

Countless troops were mobilized, and teams of Qi, Chu, and Ming marches towards Linzi, with flags stretching for hundreds of miles, covering the sky.

"Military advisor, do you think the chances of winning this time are good?"

Tian Ji saw a large number of Qi troops stretching endlessly, like a winding dragon, asking his military advisor Sun Bin about his chances of victory.

Sun Bin shook his head: "I look at the hexagram of Qimen Dunjia, it is dark and difficult to understand, so it is hard to say this time."

"You can't even predict the good or bad luck of the military advisors who are familiar with ghosts and gods. It seems that this time it's really dangerous."

Tian Ji's face was gloomy and realized the danger this time.

Qi State fought against Chu State's 400,000 troops, and Tian Ji and Sun Bin were not in such a heavy mood.

"Duke Cao, what do you think of victory or defeat?"

When Tian Ji talked with Sun Bin, Zhu Youjian was also discussing with Li Wenzhong the victory or defeat of the upcoming Battle of Linzi.

"In the war, Zhang Hua killed the thief leader Nurhaci and swept the Central Plains. This time, the attack on Shandong was Zhuge Liang, the famous prime minister of the Three Kingdoms, Li Ji, the British Duke of the Tang Dynasty, and Ge Congzhou, the Shandong hero, may be a fierce battle."

Li Wenzhong did not have much confidence in this battle.

Although Qi, Chu and Ming formed a huge coalition of 500,000, the lineup sent by Zhang Hua to conquer the Shandong countries was also quite luxurious.

Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Wei Yan, Li Ji, Xue Rengui, Cheng Yaojin, Shan Xiongxin, Qi Bi Heli, Zhang Shigui, Ge Congzhou, Liu Xiu, Li Si'an, Hua Mulan, Ma Yunlu...

If these generals are concentrated in any dynasty, they can at least divide the world into three parts.

The 500,000 Qi and Chu coalition forces rushed towards Linzi City, while Zhuge Liang, Li Ji, Ge Congzhou, and the three legion commanders stopped marching towards Linzi, but watched the situation.

The Qi State, the Chu State coalition, and Zhu Youjian, a force that is not as good as the Qi State and Chu State, but should not be underestimated. The lineup is not necessarily worse than the Xia army's Eastern Expedition.

Zhuge Liang and Li Ji were responsible for making suggestions, while Fan Zeng of Chu and Sun Bin of Qi were also top-notch strategists, so Zhuge Liang and Li Ji did not have the absolute advantage when they fought against Sima Rangju.

"The battle between Qi and the land has reached a critical moment. With our troops, we may not be able to win. In this case, we can only ask the lord for reinforcements."

Zhuge Liang and Li Ji thought about it over and over again and finalized the best strategy - seeking help.

That's right.

Zhang Hua's territory is even larger than Qi and Chu.

If Zhuge Liang and Li Ji fail to attack Shandong countries, then you can shake people in the rear. Guanzhong, Central Plains, Nanyang and other places will continuously send reinforcements to strengthen Zhuge Liang and Li Ji's military power.

In Guanzhong, Chang'an City, Zhang Hua returned to the army. In addition to cultivating feelings with Sun Shangxiang, Princess Ningping, and Princess Yongmu, he mainly deals with the internal affairs and military operations in various places, and dispatches troops.

At present, the Xia army can only use troops in Qi and Lu, and other fronts, temporarily stop using troops, recruiting troops, and accumulating national strength.

In addition, craftsmen are building troops and enriching the national treasury to attack the powerful Qin State at the beginning of next spring.

Mulan always reported to Zhang Hua about the progress of conquering the countries in Shandong.

Zhang Hua has also learned about the alliance between King Wei of Qi and Fan Zeng.

"There are many famous generals in Qi State, and the next one may be Zhuge Liang and Li Ji's battle in the east, the most difficult battle. It seems that another reinforcement army needs to be sent..."

Zhang Hua learned from the Jinyiwei that the truth and reality of Qi State were that the divine summoned Sun Bin was a disciple of Guiguzi. He was familiar with the ten military strategists and had a strange power and was particularly difficult to deal with. It was probably Zhuge Liang and Li Ji who could not gain the upper hand when they faced Sun Bin.

Lu Lingqi came in and informed: "Chen Cang's guard general Pang Juan, without orders, returned to Chang'an City without authorization and asked to see his lord."

"oh?"

Zhang Hua frowned.

Each general needs to have a transfer order before he can leave his jurisdiction.

Pang Juan left his post without permission. If Zhang Hua really wanted to pursue the matter, he could even execute Pang Juan.

"Let Pang Juan come to see me."

Zhang Hua thought about it again and again. As a famous general, Pang Juan should know what he was doing.

Since Pang Juan took the initiative to ask for a meeting, Pang Juan must have something important to ask for.

Pang Juan carried the jing to ask for a visit: "The last general knew that he had left his post without permission and had dereliction of duty, but the last general heard that Sun Bin served under the command of King Wei of Qi. The last general requested to send troops to Qi and defeat Sun Bin!"

“…”

No wonder Pang Juan is so excited. It turns out that it is because Pang Juan learned that Sun Bin is in Qi and wants to fight with Sun Bin again.

Pang Juan and Sun Bin were both disciples of Guiguzi, but they were defeated twice in a row and died. Pang Juan was always angry and believed that his talents were no less than Sun Bin.

However, Zhang Hua was worried that Pang Juan was not Sun Bin's opponent...
