After attacking the royal city, he was about to attack Guocheng, but Qi Xiang actually came to ask for surrender. If others must be overjoyed, Wang Jian vaguely noticed something wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong. Is the Chu army coming? If the Chu army is coming, why did the Qi people ask for surrender to him? How can they hold him back if neither army is fighting?

Once the scout had a police officer, the Qin army could withdraw from Linzi immediately. There were many bad things in winter, but it was a smooth road from the Qin-Qi border to Linzi in winter, and he could retreat from any direction. When he came, he was worried that the Qi army would be ambushed, and in order not to delay time in attacking the cities along the way, he chose a side road. After leaving Xiayi, he did not go along the official road in the east to Changguo (now east of Zichuan), but started from Tancheng (now west of Zhangqiu) and walked northeast.

There is a Baiyun Mountain between Tancheng and Yuling. Tancheng is located in the southwest of Baiyun Mountain and Yuling is located in the northeast of Baiyun Mountain. The official road comes from Lixiayi, passes through Pingling and Tancheng, passes from the south of Baiyun Mountain, and then arrives at the west bank of Zibo River before turning north. Then along the Zibo River, it is about 80 miles north. It is Linzi South City.

If you walk this official road, you will have to pass east of Zhangqiu in later generations, and reach the west bank of the Zi River between Baiyun Mountain and Siji Mountain. The narrowest part between the two mountains is less than fifteen miles, and the length is about forty miles. This place is undoubtedly a dangerous place for ambushing. Therefore, after passing Tancheng, the Qin army took the northeast and passed from the north of Baiyun Mountain. Although the south is still forested, the north is a plain with unobstructed views.

In winter, the river is frozen, and exit from Linzi to west, south, and north. You can get rid of the three coalition forces of Qi, Chu and Zhao in either direction, and then safely retreat to Lixiayi or Pingyin City, or even simply retreat to the east county of Qin. When the Chu army withdrew its troops in spring and summer, the Qin army will attack Qi again. If the Chu army aided Qi again, the Qin army will retreat again.

It seems like this is a tug-of-war, and the Qin army consumed food and fodder and gained nothing. But for the west of Linzi, which is without danger, every time the Qin army withdrew from Qi, the Qi people would send soldiers to guard Lixiayi Hepingyin City. So the situation would become the situation before the Qin army attack: the Qin army was stationed on the Qinqi border, and the Qi army was stationed on Guyi Hepingyin City.

Then the Qin army attacked, annihilated 150,000 or even 200,000 Qin troops on the defense line in Jixi, and finally advanced to Linzi. Then the Chu army rescued Qi, and the Qin army retreated again. Once the Qin army retreated, the Qi army had to send soldiers to station Jixi, and then was captured by the Qin army and killed tens of thousands of Qi army. As long as this was the case, the Qi army would be exhausted. Once the warriors were exhausted, the Qi State would be destroyed.

From the time of accepting the order to attack the King of Qi, Wang Jian had the idea of ​​destroying Qi during his advance and retreat, rather than attacking Linzi and destroying Qi. However, the development of the situation was too unexpected. Wang Ao used witch medicine to explode the city wall, and the Qin army quickly attacked the royal city. The Qi army obviously couldn't handle it and was defeated by the Qin army's front army. Now Qi Prime Minister came to surrender again...

"Destroy Qi and go to Yi!" Wang Jian, who walked down the city wall, was sleeping in the palace at this time, and he used this place as his shogunate. Qi Xiangtian Katsu was temporarily taken down and waited for the shogunate's discussion. Wang Jian, who was sitting on the king's seat, pondered for a long time and said this.

His words resonated with some resonance. It was less than a month since the invasion of Qi, but in fact it was only more than twenty days, but it was in these twenty days that Qi was destroyed. Who would believe this? How long did it take to destroy Zhao? From the time of deciding to destroy Zhao, the Qin army attacked for five years. Five years also coincided with the earthquake and drought of Zhao. The most important thing was that Li Mu died. If Li Mu was not dead, Zhao did not know when he would survive. However, Qi was completely different. He died in more than twenty days, and there were less than ten thousand soldiers who died in battle on his own side.

The generals showed surprise on their faces, but Wang Ao said, "Is it easy for the general to ask the general, the Jing people attacked our Nanjun, Nanyang, and to deprive us of Wuguan, and to attack Guanzhong?"

Wang Ao's words made the generals less surprised. The Chu army invaded Nanjun and Nanyang, and finally invaded Guanzhong to eliminate Xianyang. It took not much time, only more than thirty days. But don't forget that Nanjun is more than 1,000 miles from Xianyang, and the Qin-Qi border to Linzi is only more than 400 miles at most.

"This is all witchcraft, and the merit of witchcraft." Wang Jian, the generals were still thinking, and Wang Ao continued. "The witchcraft in the army was sent to Xianyang, but the people of Qi did not know. The people of Qi thought I had witchcraft and knew that I had witchcraft. They knew that Guocheng would not be guarded, so they asked to surrender. If they did not ask for surrender, Linzi was taken away by me. Instead of breaking the city and dying, it would be better to surrender and continue to sacrifice."

Wang Ao analyzed the psychology of Qi people, and said that all the generals nodded. He said again: "Is it easy for the King of Qi to ask the King to promise to keep the sacrifices? This is difficult. When we entered the Warring States Period, which country in the world could still be destroyed and still be sacrificed? Only Wei Guo. How can Wei Guo keep the temples and keep the sacrifices? Is it because Wei Wang obedient?

No! The Wei State can keep its ancestral temples and keep its sacrifices endlessly. It was because Mr. Guiguzizhong personally wrote to Marquis Wenxin, saying that although the king of Wei State was a Zhou person, he loved the people of Yin and had good virtues, and should keep its sacrifices endlessly. Marquis Wenxin then told the king, Empress Dowager Zu, and Empress Dowager Zu personally agreed.

The King of Qi also sought sacrifices from Tian family, and sacrifices were not sacrifices. If he did not sacrifice his sacrifices, he should be the king of Qi. Since he was the king of Qi, he would have his own salary. If he did not sacrifice his sacrifices, he would have his own place to maintain the ancestors' gods. Therefore, regardless of the size, he would have a ancestral temple. If he did not sacrifice his sacrifices, the King of Qi should be the king of the fief."

The king and ministers of Qi were both nobles, and the nobles spoke concisely and clearly expressed their meaning. However, Wang Jian and many of the generals present were rough. Even Wang Jian did not understand the endless sacrifices and only knew that this was not something he could agree to. At this time, Wang Ao explained the matter thoroughly, and he nodded deeply, and Wang Ben said directly: "It turns out that the King of Qi wants to be my great Qin lord."

"Yes. That's exactly what it means." Wang Ao said. "The king should give it a town to be a ancestral temple."

"If this matter is spread to Xianyang, it will take only one day. The king decided to pass it back to Linzi, and it will take another day or two days. If Jing people save Qi, it will arrive in two or three days." With Wang Ao, Liu Chi, the trusted person, rarely speaks, but this must be said.

"That's true." Wang Ao agreed with Liu Chi's judgment, and he said: "However, I don't allow the people of Qi. I have no witchcraft and witch medicine. More than 200,000 people of Qi guard Linzi and Jing saves Qi. I will arrive in a few days."

"Yeah." Wang Jian touched his beard, and he was also worried about this. "What should I do?"

"I thought it might be possible to let it go. When the news arrived in Xianyang, the king of King Yun Qi continued to sacrifice his sacrifice." Wang Ao laughed before speaking. After he finished speaking, the generals were stunned at first, and then laughed.

Calculating the time, four hours later, Tian Jiao was summoned to the main hall by Wang Jian. As soon as he entered the hall, the Mingtang turned into a wine hall. Under Zhong Le, the palace actor Chang You, who had retreated to Guocheng, started dancing in the hall. Looking at the music and dance in the hall, Qin Jiang, who was making Ji, was mostly holding a girl in his arms. They laughed while filling the wine. Seeing him in, Wang Jian, who was sitting in the king's seat, waved his hands, and the music and dance in the hall hurriedly took off.

"King..." Wang Jian couldn't help but burp. "Feixen arrived in Xianyang. The king knew that the King of Qi had asked, and he thought that King of Qi had not guilty of my Great Qin, so he allowed King of Qi to continue to sacrifice."

Wang Jian said while being loyal to Liu Chi, while forwarding a brocade bag for Tian Bao. Qin State was still using bamboo slips, and the bag contained two bamboo slips. The slip said: On the first month of the tenth and nineteenth year, the king was in the palace of Qutai. Wang Ruo said: "Qi State has not committed a crime against Qin. Now he is requested to surrender, and he should be granted the title of Gongxian and become the king of Gongxian, and he will continue to worship him."

This is actually a book of orders. Although there is no ceremony of enthronement, the format is different from the edict, order, and report. There is no fixed term such as "It is like a law" or "Like the law".

Wang Jian waited quietly for Tian Guao to finish watching, and then said: "Since the king has agreed, the King of Qi will open the door to surrender tomorrow."

"Break food?" Tian Fei's hand shook, and the life-slip in the treasure bag almost fell to the floor.

"Eat early!" Wang Jian said. "If the King of Qi does not surrender tomorrow, our army will attack the city with witchcraft!"

"If the Qi soldiers blocked the door at night, the witches would also attack the door." Wang Jian said after Wang Ao. "In this way, the King of Qi is no longer the king of the Communist County."

"The Qi army will not block the city, nor will it block the city." Tian Jiao hurriedly said, "However, the surrender of Qin is too hasty. There are still ministers in the court who do not want to surrender. The widow should order the surrender. Please ask the general to give him three days..."
