Chapter 80 Guilty

"Chu people?" The warship slowly rowed across the canal in the northwest corner of the city, and Tian Lin finally saw the Chu army soldiers on the deck.

"Chu people!" Tian Yang nodded. He had always had a premonition that Chu people would come to Linzi, but he didn't expect it to come so early.

"Chu people?" Outside Gao Gate of the Royal Palace, it was already dawn, but Gao Gate was still tight, and the drums on the city made people panic. The enemy attack was an enemy attack, but before the capital's doctor Tian Yang reported, no one could be sure of the Chu people coming.

"Jing people! Good, great kindness." The news from the Qin envoy Wang Ao was much more versatile than the officials in front of Gao Gate. Before dawn, he received a news from the city: The Chu people are coming.

*

"Do you look down when the king falls?" Inside the sleeping room, the noise outside was isolated. The dream interpretation Taishi asked Tian Jian's dream in detail.

"When I fell... I was so grateful." Tian Jian recalled the situation of his fall, as if he was indeed falling on his back.

"What is the King of Chu?" The Grand Historian asked again, "Does he beg?"

"King of Chu..." Tian Jian thought again, under the expectant gaze of the Grand Historian, he nodded, "The King of Chu looked down at me."

"Ah!" Taishi shouted and suddenly jumped up. This scared Tian Jian, wondering whether this dream was a bad or a good thing.

"Great good luck! I am in heaven. The King of Chu bowed his head and then surrendered his crime. I will be gentle with him!" The Grand Historian bowed.

"Ah?" Tian Jian was also confused. He was obviously wronged, but he became a great blessing and could still be gentle (tamed).

"In the Battle of Chengpu, the King of Jin Meng fought with the King of Chu. After falling to the ground, the King of Chu was lying on his head, so he was afraid. My son said, "Auspicious. I will win the heavens, and Chu will conquer his crimes, so I will be gentle." Sure enough, the Chu army was defeated, and even if it was not soft, it would not be far away." The Grand Historian hurriedly cited the example of the Battle of Chengpu. "Now the king fell on his back and fell on the air, and the King of Chu looked at each other, and I will conquer his crimes."

"Ah." The battle between Chengpu was a battle for hegemony between Jin and Chu. Unexpectedly, this dream was actually in harmony with Duke Wen of Jin. Tian Jian couldn't help but feel a little surprised. But if Duke Wen of Jin and himself were both Ji's surname, he felt that this should be the revelation of his ancestors.

"I congratulate the king on his victory over the Chu people." Concubine Li paused her head and said. The military officers sent by Tian Yang were long outside the bed, and everyone knew that the Chu people were attacking.

"I am congratulating the king on his victory over the Chu people." The rest of the bedroom followed Concubine Li to worship, and his voice shook the house.

The wing warship sailed to the northeast corner of Linzi City and stopped. Tens of thousands of pairs of eyes staring at the warship in the city. Many people were wondering how the Chu people attacked the city with this warship alone. They were just dozens of Chu soldiers, and as long as a small Rong Qi army left the city, they could defeat it.

The soldiers of Qi soldiers on the city watched, and the Chu people on the warships were all doing their own things. Soon after the boat was stopped, the Ying army Sima Zhuang, holding flags, got off the boat and landed on the shore. Fifty soldiers guarded him and accompanied him along the moat of the west city, Henan.

Linzi City was noisy and chaotic, and 50,000 soldiers were delayed, but now they have gathered in place. The most important thing is already dawn, and the Chu people outside the city are under the sight of the Qi army. The formerly hung heart of the Du Doctor Tian Yang had already returned to his heart. Now seeing the Chu people sending an envoy, the messenger holding a flag in his hand, I couldn't help laughing.

Why don’t you know how to attack the city when you come from thousands of miles across the sea? Once you attack the city, Linzi will inevitably be in chaos, and it is not impossible to defeat the city. Now, sending an envoy to tell yourself that the Chu army is coming? Without this suddenness, the Chu army, who has been on the expedition, still has hope of victory? There is absolutely no, there is no war or no war.

"I dare to ask why the doctor laughed?" Military coach Tian Lin finally found the opportunity, his face full of flattery smiles.

"I laugh at the foolishness of Chu people." Tian Yang said with a smile. "He came across the sea but wanted to fight with great courage and would be defeated."

"But I want to fight with great strength?" Tian Lin asked again, pretending to be puzzled.

"This is the envoy of the Chu people." Tian Yang pointed to Zhuang Wudi, who was holding a flag in his hand and traveling along the moat in Henan. "When I send an envoy, I must make an appointment with me to fight. Isn't this a dignified battle? If our army does not fight, the Chu people will retreat after every month; if they fight..."

Tian Yang couldn't continue to say anything. He still didn't know how many people the Chu army had arrived and where they were ambushed. He changed his words and asked his left and right, "Where are scouts sent out of the city? Where is the Chu army?"

"Report to the Ministry of the Capital, I have not sent a scout yet, so I don't know where the Chu army is hiding." He bowed left and right and said, just now everyone was still worried that the Chu army would attack the city, and it was too late for the soldiers in the city to assemble, so how could there be no time to send a scout?

"Send a scout immediately..." Tian Yang said intently. However, he did not need to send a scout to explore, the Chu army had already arrived.

"Please look at the doctor!" a company commander shouted, pointing his finger to the black water in the north. There, the sails were as dense as clouds, and against the shimmering black water, one after another of the Chu army warships appeared in everyone's sight. The boat army! The boat army disappeared from Langya Port.

‘Dongdongdongdongdongdongdong…’ The north city wall once again beat the drum sound of warning, and the other walls echoed. The drums of the soldiers and brigades in the city immediately echoed. After the three-way drum, the city wall became quiet, and the inner area of ​​the city exclaimed again. No one knew what had happened, but something was obviously a big deal.

"The envoy Zhuang Wudi, who was ordered by the widow, said to the King of Qi: "With the southwest king, Zhuang Wudi, who held the envoy's honor, stood at the gate with an arrow and shouted at the Qi people on the city. "With the unspoken people were willing to make good friends with Qi, so he returned to Muling Neiguan and married Qi. However, the prime minister of Qi was better than Qin's bribes, and alienated Chu Qi in front, and withdrew from the rear without authorization, and killed Chu merchants. Therefore, Wunian led Ying's troops to Qi to investigate the crime. In this battle, he did not harm Qi people, but only killed Hou Sheng, and looked for Qi..."

The Chu people believed that the Empress of Qi was to alienate the diplomatic relations between Chu and Qi, so they sent troops this time not to harm the people of Qi, but only killed Hou Sheng. In order to let the people of Qi know the purpose of the Chu army, Zhuang Wudi read out the contents of the document before he paid a visit to the King of Qi. Before he finished reading, someone shouted at the top of the city: "Please enter the city by Chu."

"Please enter the city by Chu." All the soldiers in the city shouted, and the closed southwest gate slowly opened, and the halberd-carried men wearing giant armor lined up in an orderly line to greet them.

"I heard that the Qin envoy has been in Linzi, and Sima needs to be careful." Gui Jing looked at Zhuang Wudi and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Chu Qi has already had evil, why is he so?" Zhuang Wudi was not worried at all. Qi was a great country in the world. The two armies fought and did not kill them. He believed that his life was worry-free. After that, he stepped forward towards the city gate, and the soldiers beside him followed closely.

The city gate was wide open, the Gao Gate was wide open, the ku Gate was wide open, the thatched gate was wide open, and the response gate was wide open. In the frontier, hundreds of court officials were silent, waiting for the Chu envoy to come to the court to see him. King Tian Jian of Qi also changed into a Wei Bian suit to show that he would fight to the death with the Chu army.

The halberds lined up from outside the city gate to Zhengchao Yingmen. The selected soldiers were elite soldiers. These people were not only tall but also strong, and their armor was like an iron mountain. They all stared at Zhuang Wudi, and Zhuang Wudi was unaware of it. The armored soldiers beside him stared proudly, and the eyes of both sides seemed to fight against each other, almost knocking out Mars.

After walking through the gates, when the court reached the court, the servants who had already been on the stairs called "Sheng, rise, rise...". Zhuang Wudi climbed the steps step by step, and then walked into the hall and entered the central court. There was no longer the glare of the halberds here, only the Qi court officials standing in squad and the Qi King Tian Jian dressed in Wei Ban's robes.

"Where did the envoy of Chu come from?" Fuxiu stopped Hou Sheng who was about to speak, and King Tian Jian of Qi asked in person.

"Here comes just because of asking for guilt." Zhuang Wudi answered loudly without any fright.

"What crime do you want to ask?" Tian Jian said again. He did not hear the words outside Zhuang Wudicheng.

"Qi Prime Minister Housheng was bribed by Qin. He alienated Chu Qi, resigned from marriage and harmed Chu Shang, so the widowed king asked him for his crime." Zhuang Wudi glared at Qi Prime Minister Housheng under the king's ranks. As soon as he spoke, the court officials were buzzing.

The court officials thought that the people of Chu were asking for the crime of breaking their promises last year, but what they didn't want to ask was the crime of the prime minister of Qi Housheng. Housheng had been in charge of the government for more than ten years. Except for his direct lineage, everyone hated him. For a moment, everyone was a little gloating. Housheng's face changed drastically, and he was sweating profusely, and his whole body seemed to be fished out of water.

"Silent!" Tian Jian seemed to understand the thoughts of the ministers. After he stopped drinking, he asked again: "Since the King of Chu was asking for punishment, why did the troops come to Qidu?"

"The great punishment is made of armor and weapons, followed by axes and halberds." Zhuang Wudi said again: "I heard that the king had always been miserable and was bewitched by the evil king. If he did not come to Qidu, why should he be punished?"

"Random!" Zhuang Wudi used his power to suppress others in his words and said bluntly that he was bewitched by unfiliality. Tian Jian was unhappy. "The Prime Minister of Qi is a minister of our Qi State, so why should the King of Chu be punished?"

"The king was indeed bewitched by him." Zhuang Wudi sighed. "Why did I raise an army to ask for the crimes of the ministers? I have made it clear that if the king insists on protecting unworthy people, I can only ask for a battle with the king's soldiers and ask King Feng Shi to look at him, and my ministers and the ministers will see him."

"King, the Chu envoy is very rude, please cook it." Dasheng Tian Ji, who was in charge of diplomacy, was furious when he saw Zhuang Wudi's letter of war on the spot.

"King, the people of Chu are rude, please fight with me." Grand Sima Tianzong was also very unhappy. Chu envoy was a naked threat. Qi was a big country, and even if Qi was a small country, he could not accept such insults.

"King, the people of Chu are indeed rude. Qi Prime Minister is a minister of Qi. Why should the King of Chu ask for punishment? Do you think of me Qi? "Da Jian Tian Jian was also unhappy, "If the king does not punish him, the Chu army will destroy the city, and he will become a barbarian."

"Qi is separated from Chu Qi, and he is arbitrarily resigned from marriage and killed Chu Shang. Why can't the wicked king be punished?" Zhuang Wudi retorted. "The king can be punished for victory after not being punished. Please fight with Ying Shi. The wicked king led only 30,000 Ying Shi, and 100,000 people holding halberds in Linzi, so don't be afraid."

"What does it mean? The Chu army is only 30,000?" Grand Marshal Tianzong reacted the fastest. He thought the Chu army was at least 100,000, but he didn't expect it was only 30,000.
