Zhangqiu fell, Tianba died in battle, and the entire Qi State fell into panic.

Tian Heng forced Tian Guang to fight in person, while Tian Guang was determined to escape to Jiaodong. Guan Ying's light cavalry followed Tian Yezi's defeated soldiers to the city of Linzi. Long Tianqing died in the chaos and could not even find his body.

The Qin State cavalry was less than 30,000. Tian Guang had enough time to escape at this time. Tian Heng organized a living force and had a chance to fight against the Qin army. However, the uncle and nephew had a dispute at this time. Tian Guang changed his usual obedience and had to escape to Jiaodong. Tian Heng wanted to go out of the city to meet the enemy, but was opposed by most of his ministers. The imperial meeting lasted for nearly three hours. It was not until Tian Heng could no longer bear it and drew out a sharp blade to kill the great Sima Tian Jing who was strongly seeking to escape. In fact, it was a bit too late to escape at that time.

The infantry of Luan Bu and Zhang Han had intercepted the important roads in the north and south in two routes. Guan Ying led 300 chariots to surround the official road on the west, and Linzi City was infiltrated on three sides.

Faced with the sound of despair in the country, Tian Heng was furious and personally put on his armor to the Linzi city to supervise the battle. He killed more than ten generals of the Lord and the Hesitate Sect, and the city was broken and the city was sworn. The city tower had been reinforced, and there were 500 armored generals, cavalry, infantry, and chariot soldiers in the city. If the military and civilians were united and did not give in, and if the food and supplies were sufficient, it would be no problem to guard the last month. At that time, the international situation had changed and the Qin soldiers had to retreat.

Tian Heng was born in the army, brave and strong, and competitive, and was not willing to defend Linzi. Just as Guan Ying was ringing the first battle drum, he carried his gun and rode his horse, lit up ten thousand elite cavalry, rushed across the moat, and fought against Guan Ying.

At this moment, the Qin army was both fierce and arrogant. Even Guan Ying, who had always been steady, thought he was sure to win and did not take Tian Heng seriously at all. However, Li Shiqi brought his horse to him and reminded him, "Tian Heng is not easy to deal with. Also, he has a large number of dead soldiers under him, with superb swordsmanship and skilled in assassination. You must be careful."

Guan Ying didn't care and sneered, "War, if he had fought to this point, Tian Heng would have used it long ago. As for assassination, it was a despicable thing, and only scoundrels would use it."

Li Shiqi was disappointed and said nothing, and said in disappointment, "Although it is rogue, it is very effective."

Amid the sound of war drums, Tian Hengchen led 20,000 cavalry out of the city. After a scattered dust, he quickly poured into the vast plains southwest of Linzi. The swallow wings were lined up and formed a formation, forming a situation facing the Qin army.

At this time, Guan Ying had already cooperated with Zhang Han and Luan Bu and formed a trinity formation. Luan Bu's infantry was on the left, thirty rows of vertical and horizontal lines, ten rows of soldiers in front held conflicts, and twenty rows of behind were all crossbowmen. The formation was like a crescent moon, facing Tian Heng's left wing. Zhang Han's right wing army was also like this.

Guan Ying and a dozen generals were commanding immediately, and behind them were all agile cavalry. There were three zhang in front of them, and there were three rows of oars and shield soldiers. These oars and shield soldiers held huge shields, which not only effectively prevented the attacks of bows and arrows from the opposite side, but also prevented the enemy's cavalry from raiding. It was very safe.

Tian Heng snorted coldly, urged his horse to come forward, and called Guan Ying to answer. Guan Ying wanted to fight him one-on-one, so he urged the horse to take two feet, and the two were only ten steps apart.

Tian Heng looked at Guan Ying and said disdainfully, "Isn't this a powerful general under Pei Gong's tent? How could he be a slave to the tyrant Qin? It's really a secret betrayal."

In the confrontation between the two armies, they were either killing people or cursing people. Guan Ying had long known that he could not speak good things, so he looked calm and waved his gun. "Prime Minister Tian, ​​Guan Ying is polite."

Tian Heng said carelessly, "No need to say nonsense. I asked you to come out and ask me just to know why the bastard of Qin King sent you to attack Qi State? Are you not afraid of being scolded by the unknown army in Daxing?"

Guan Ying smiled and said, "Prime Minister Tian is also a hero today. How could he say such ridiculous words? Thinking back to the beginning, Emperor Qin Shi merged with Jiuzhou, became counties and counties in the country, and the six kingdoms had long been abolished. Linzi was originally the territory of the Qin Dynasty. The King of Qin came whenever he wanted, and left whenever he wanted. Who could control it?"

Tian Heng said angrily, "Ying Hu Hai has abolished the emperor's title, and has recognized the legal status of Emperor Yi." Guan Ying said; "But Emperor Yi is dead." This was a bit unreasonable, and Tian Heng narrowed his eyes and sneered. "The death of Emperor Yi has nothing to do with our Qi people." Guan Ying said; "The death of Emperor Yi has nothing to do with the people of Qi again." Guan Ying said; "The death of Emperor Yi is dead, and the King of Qin wants to unify the world again. For the sake of the people of the world, Prime Minister Tian is deeply aware of the righteousness, persuade King Tian Guang of Qi, hand over the king's seal and the seal, and follow Guan Ying back to Guanzhong to enjoy the happiness. The people of the world will definitely be grateful for the kindness of the Prime Minister and the King of Qi."

Tian Heng thought to himself that Guan Ying seemed to have drunk Ying Huhai's ecstasy soup and was determined to hold his stinky feet. It would be meaningless to continue talking.

"Since General Guan Ying said this, I am not good at all and I will not give you any face. I will make three bets for you. If you win two of them, I will surrender."

When Guan Ying heard the bet, she couldn't help but think of a one-on-one fight. She blurted out without even thinking about it. "After a word is expressed-"

Tian Hengdao; "It is hard to chase after four horses!"

Guan Ying looked around at the enemy tower of Linzi City, who was standing in a spear and halberd, and said calmly, "Please tell me." Tian Heng said; "First, I heard that you have excellent shooting skills, and I want to compete with you." Guan Ying said happily; "Yes." Tian Heng grinned; "Second, I want to compete with you in the military formation." Guan Ying said hesitantly; "Will countless casualties?" Tian Heng waved his hand: "Go to compete in the battle, not afraid of death." Guan Ying thought to himself, I have many people here, are you still afraid of you? "Yes." Tian Heng smiled; "Third! Let's try the offensive and defensive battle."

Guan Ying was angry when she heard this. After talking for a long time, she was playing with her buddy! In the end, she still had to attack the city! Tian Heng planned to delay and smiled casually, "If you win two games in a row, there is no need to compete in the third game." Guan Ying turned her head and looked at Li Shiqi. Li Shiqi waved his hand slightly under the horse, signaling him not to agree. But Guan Ying felt that it would affect the morale of the army, so she nodded and said, "I'm afraid you are not a hero."

Tian Hengdao; "Since that's the case, we have made a decision. We will come to the appointment again at noon the day after tomorrow. Now both sides take a step back and go back together."

Guan Ying felt a little moved and thought to himself that it had been delayed for another two days. However, he had agreed just now, and he couldn't say anything now. He bowed his hand slightly, tied the reins of the horse, and returned to the formation.

The battle cloud that had just risen suddenly dissipated. Both sides stopped and returned to their respective camps.

Li Shiqi hurriedly broke into Guan Ying's tent. Guan Ying, Luan Bu, Zhang Han, and Sima Xin were standing in front of a military map that was tall and pointed. Li Shiqi paused at the door, saying, "What should I do? General Guan, you are trapped."

Guan Ying turned his head and smiled, "Mr. Li, I'm going to find you, why did you stop me in front of the formation just now?" Li Shiqi rushed up and sighed, "The general is too hasty, so he doesn't know if he is trapped." Zhang Han was also confused; "What kind of trapped, why don't I know?"

Li Shiqi said, "What other strategy can be done? Of course it is a procrastination!" Zhang Han and others looked at each other and laughed: "Even if he delayed, he could still get rid of it for half a month. It was only one or two days." Li Shiqi shook his head and said, "I have said just now that Tian Heng has raised countless dead soldiers, and he will definitely send someone to assassinate him. This is the reason why he delayed time."

Guan Ying had heard of the assassin, but had never encountered it before. He even didn't believe that anyone could assassinate him, and said disapprovingly; "Even if he sent the assassin, he would not be able to get close to me. Mr. Li, you should be careful." Li Shiqi said; "I will definitely be careful. However, general, don't underestimate Tian Heng's assassin. Going to battle to kill the enemy. They may not be the general's opponents, but poisoning and assassination is invincible, and being cautious is the best."

Guan Ying nodded, but didn't take it to heart at all. Li Shiqi had no choice but to sigh and went out, and threw another sentence at the door, "It's either tonight or tomorrow night."

Zhang Han and others shook their heads behind him, ridiculing his scholar's timidity. Guan Ying frowned and said, "Mr. Li must be drunk again. What assassin can come to the military camp? Are you not afraid of death?"

Zhang Han said, "It's better to be cautious. I see two more secret whistles around the general's tent, so it's safe." Guan Ying ignored it, but said, "Didn't the old general say that Qin has an extremely powerful military formation? Please tell me in detail." Zhang Han said, "The formation of the Qin army was originally very rigorous, but since the death of Emperor Qin, the army has neglected training, so it may not be easy. It takes two days to train-"

Guan Ying said; "We have two days."

Sima Xin also heard of this formation and followed Zhang Han's thoughts and introduced it endlessly. Luan Bu and Guan Ying listened, their eyes shining and nodded repeatedly. The four of them studied until midnight. The appointment was made, and Zhang Han mobilized troops to practice the next day. Before leaving, everyone forgot about what Li Shiqi had been there.

Guan Ying was exhausted and lying in the tent and slept in a dark and messy place. The next day, she heard the crowds of people in the camp, the weapons were loud and the orderly, and put on her armor to go out to patrol the camp, and found that Zhang Han was already training. Seeing the mighty and high morale of the Qin army, she was very happy.

It happened that Li Shiqi was yawning and lazily turned out from behind the tent.

Guan Ying smiled and said, "Mr. Li, did you meet an assassin last night?" Li Shiqi's face turned red and she rolled her eyes. "What do you mean? Not coming last night does not mean that you won't come tonight. If you don't believe it, just bet." Guan Ying knew his temper and waved her hands repeatedly; "No need to bet, I have enough bets, forget it."

Li Shiqi shrugged, took two steps forward, stood by and watched Zhang Han rehearse the formation, and said to himself: "The troops of Qi must not fight head-on with the Qin army, and head-on collision will lead to death."

Guan Ying heard something in his words, and emphasized things like assassin. She smiled bitterly, turned around and got into the handsome tent, unable to afford to mess with him, and could not afford to hide.

Li Shiqi stomped his feet and rubbed his hands in a hurry outside the tent. For some reason, he had a premonition that Tian Heng would definitely send an assassin.

After meeting Guan Ying, Li Shiqi was nervous. He gathered all his personal soldiers, with about 500 people. Li Shiqi divided the 500 people into two teams, each team selected a captain, and waited in shifts day and night. For twelve hours, only the captain could enter his tent, and even if it was a trivial matter like pouring tea and handing water, he could not pretend to be someone else.

What Li Shiqi was really worried about was not himself, but Guan Ying. Guan Ying was too careless. No wonder he didn't know that Tian Heng had a group of killers under him.

Li Shiqi privately arranged four secret whistles outside Guan Ying's tent.

The uneasiness lasted until dark. Li Shiqi did not pay the bill for a day.

Because we have to deal with a big battle tomorrow, Guan Ying, Zhang Han and others will end the negotiations early and prepare to return their own accounts to accumulate strength.

He lifted up the curtain and looked at the sky at midnight. The spring was cold and the air was fresh. The moon in the sky was like a golden sickle. There was a milky white mist floating in the camp. Guan Ying suddenly remembered Li Shiqi's words and felt a little funny. He hummed heavily, put down the curtain, entered the inner tent, and lay on the couch to rest. He had the habit of sleeping in armor.

In the trance, a rapid sound of horse hooves came. Guan Ying was awakened by a shrill cry: "Report, General Guan, the King of Qin has an order!"

Guan Ying suddenly woke up. His years of military career made him awake and his body trembled and he sat up. This movement was too big and very sudden, and his head became a little dizzy.

"Send it in!" Guan Ying lowered her head and rubbed her temples.

A burst of rapid footsteps came, Guan Ying smelled the smell of sweat and the smell of earth and the fishy smell of food from the person who came, and raised his arms slightly to receive the order. The moment his hand was stretched out, the cold wind suddenly poured into his ears, and his head woke up immediately. Li Shiqi's words pierced his nerves like a sharp blade. Guan Ying suddenly raised her head and saw a pair of red eyes. A pale light had already slashed towards his throat. He suddenly turned his head, and the knife light touched his ears, leaving a blood groove on his face, and the hot blood immediately flowed into his neck. These two rabbits raised their cheeks in just a moment, but they had already alarmed the soldiers outside the door.

Guan Ying flew up to the gap next to her side and kicked the assassin's lower abdomen. Four or five personal soldiers outside rushed in with spears in their hands and happened to meet them.

When Guan Ying sat down and gasped, she regretted that she had not listened to Li Shiqi and took strict precautions. In addition, she also felt ridiculous: Isn't it said that Tian Heng's assassin is good at assassin and has great martial arts skills? Why is it so easy to get rid of it?

His consciousness had not yet been turned. He had just stabbed the assassin to death, so he turned the spear head and stabbed him at his upper body and lower body. Guan Ying lay down like a stone pillar that was pushed down, and flashed the two kills that were stabbing to his abdomen. However, his right leg had been stabbed. If he hadn't been sleeping in armor, he would have had a piercing injury. This was also a blessing.

"Shit and shit" A sound of cracking silk, the thick animal skin on the front of the handsome tent was shattered by a shining sword light. Li Shiqi shouted outside the tent, "Shoot, shoot arrows!"

Five hundred Qin soldiers tugged the bowstrings like conditioned reflexes, and the entire tent was covered with feather arrows. The white eagle feathers were all aimed at the assassins holding the spear. In an instant, the four of them turned into inverted hedgehogs.

Li Shiqi thought this way: Guan Ying was wearing armor and might not be able to shoot. He should be treated as a living horse! (To be continued)
