Chapter 377: The King and Minister of Qi State (2)

Qi State is within a radius of two thousand miles, adjacent to the East China Sea, boiling salt and drying salt, and commerce is developed, and the country is very prosperous.

In the Warring States Period, the reputation of the people of Qi who are good at doing business has long been spread throughout the world. Guan Zhong, who was admired by the people of Qi, even worked in business with Bao Shuya in his early years.

The country is rich and the finances are abundant, and Qi has money to support soldiers. Now there are at least 400,000 armored men in Qi.

"Four hundred thousand people are not enough!"

In the Grand Sima Mansion in Linzi, the waiter held a copper lamp and Tian Bao buried his head on the map, feeling very big.

Tian Bao was not good at military affairs, but he was not a complete layman. The war at this time was not as professional as later generations. Tian Bao had read books and had some knowledge and understood that the situation in Qi was very bad at this time.

The Yan State in the north, the Chu State in the south, and the Zhao State in the west have long been destroyed by Qin. In this way, the Qin State's march to attack Qi State has at least three directions. How should we defend?

"Nan Guoli, how do you think I, Qi, should reject Qin?" Tian Bao looked at Zuo Sima Nan Guoli.

Nan Guoli's ancestors were from Zhongshan. After Zhao destroyed Zhongshan, the Nan Guo family moved to Qi and defected to Tian Bao's family. Over the years, Nan Guoli obtained the position of Zuo Sima by being kind to Tian Bao.

"As the saying goes, soldiers come to block the enemy, and water comes to cover the earth, it is just to send troops to resist Qin." Nan Guo left, but said nothing but said nothing.

"Where is the right Sima Wei?" Tian Bao turned his head and looked in another direction.

"Wei believes that we should focus on defending the west and north sides. If we can defend it, there is no way."

Tian Wei is a descendant of Tian Ji and has a family background, but it is far inferior to Tian Ji.

Tian Ji was assisted by Sun Bin, and Tian Wei was the old boss of Ueta Bao, and he couldn't do anything even if he wanted to do.

"Why is this?" Tian Bao opened his eyes wide.

Meng Tian, ​​who was in the south, had just led his army to conquer the Chu State, which was in awe of the world and was in full swing. He was about to raise his army to the north. In his heart, Tian Bao was even more afraid of Meng Tian's army in the south.

The Montessori tribe, with great military achievements, came from Qi, and was considered half of the Qi people. The military strategists who ran abroad in Qi were all very powerful.

"Meng Tian just attacked and destroyed Chu State, but had a long battle and was short of troops. It still took some time to go north to attack Qi State." Tian Wei thought for a while and said, "Chu is 5,000 miles in radius. The Qin army needs to stay troops to guard and cannot go north with all their strength. As long as our army steadily defends the Great Wall in the south, Meng Tian will not be able to do anything to our army."

"It's different to the west and north. When the five countries attacked Qi, Qi lost a large area of ​​land and lost a lot of defensive fortresses. Anping Jun defeated the cavalry and took back the land occupied by Yan. However, the land occupied by Zhao and Wei was not allowed to be brought back. Now it fell into the hands of the Qin people, so it would be difficult to fight."

After saying that, Tian Wei shook his head helplessly.

In the past fifty years, Anping Jun Tian Dan can be regarded as a rare general in Qi. With just one Jimo City, Qi can bring back the dead. Helplessly, his achievements are so great that he will shock the Lord. King Xiang of Qi has always been afraid of Tian Dan and failed to let Tian Dan give it peace of mind.

Tian Dan insisted on taking back the defense line in the west and north of Qi, but unfortunately he did not receive the support of King Xiang of Qi. Later, Zhao returned several worthless cities in Qi, and Tian Dan was sold to Zhao.

If Tian Shan was the prime minister of Qi, Qi would never be so depressed.

"The battle is not easy to fight, so you have to bite the bullet and fight."

Tian Bao sighed. He also understood the truth in Tian Wei's mouth. But at this time, if you put down your weapons and surrender directly to the Qin people, the people in the world would not know how to laugh at Qi people.

Think about how glorious Qi was when he was the leader of the Spring and Autumn Period and personally took over the overlord of Wei.

"Right Sima Wei, since you are more worried about the defense line in the west and north, I appoint you as the general of the Western Expedition and lead your army to Lixia to fight against the Qin army."

"Zuo Sima Li, you will lead your army to the front line of the Great Wall, and be sure to block the Qin army heading north."

Feeling the crisis of national destruction, Qi State began to actively prepare for war.

In the Chu area in the south, Meng Tian led his army to cross the Yangtze River north, followed the Hangou, and soon arrived at the Huai River.

It is the middle of summer now, and the Huai River is full of water, vast and endlessly flowing.

"General Li, you led your fleet to continue north along the canal and stationed in Pi County. I have sent someone to pick you up."

On the southern bank of the Huai River, outside Huaiyin County, a tower ship nearly three meters high. On the wide roof platform, Meng Tian was saying goodbye to Li Xun.

"The land of Chu has been settled. There is no need for me to stay in Chu. I should have turned back to Shu. However, the king ordered the boatman to continue to stay in Chu. I could only stay in Chu."

Li Xun stroked his beard and thought to himself that when Qi State was destroyed, he should be able to lead the boatman back to Shu.

"Since the Chu State has been destroyed and the world is about to return, General Li should enjoy the river. Isn't the river water in the lower reaches much more comfortable than the steep Three Gorges?"

Meng Tian didn't want Li Xun to go back to Shu, and always spoke out to keep him.

Before the Chu State was destroyed, the boatmen had to use Bashu as their base. Now that the Chu State has been destroyed, in Meng Tian's view, the lower reaches of the Yangtze River are the world where the boatmen travel.

"Haha, there is no place to travel, it is clearly to transport food and soldiers for you."

When Li Xun thought of this, he felt a little angry. The King of Qin decided to conquer Qi. Wang Ben in the north and Meng Tian in the south were attacked from north to south. There was no big river in Qi, and the navy could not use it. The boatmen in the tower had no war, so they became Meng Tian's transportation brigade.

Fortunately, Li Xun did not continue to go deeper into this issue. When he was about to get off the boat, Li Xun raised his heart: "Why did General Meng disembark in Huaiyin?"

Hearing this sentence, Meng Tian held the boat's side, slowly raised her head, and took advantage of the sunset to look at the inconspicuous small town carefully, and slowly spoke: "I heard that there was a strange man here, I want to go and take a look..."

Under the setting sun, Meng Tian’s eyes were a little deep and expected.

As the sun sets, the night gradually approaches, and a thin layer of twilight is quickly covered in Huaiyin City.

“Gugugugu…………”

In a dilapidated bamboo house, Han Xin, fifteen years old, was chewing grass roots in his mouth, lying on the hay, and curled up.

Without eating evening food, the stomach in my stomach kept wriggling, as if I wanted to squeeze the last bit of residual food.

Han Xin shrank, stretched out his left hand, stroked the bronze short sword beside him, his eyes calmed down, and he gradually fell asleep.

In the Huaiyin County Government in the city, the county magistrate gave up the largest room in the mansion and hosted Meng Tian and his group who suddenly came to Huaiyin.

The thousand personal soldiers brought by Meng Tian surrounded the county government and caused considerable waves in the small Huaiyin City.

Huaiyin County has never seen so many elite soldiers in the past few years.

"I dare to ask General Meng what happened to Xia County?" The Huaiyin County Magistrate's heart was thumping. Could it be that Huaiyin was hiding the remnants of anti-Qin.

"Monkey King, don't be nervous, I just passed by by chance." Meng Tian smiled, put down the bamboo slips in his hand, and asked casually, "Is there a bad boy who forces others to get under his crotch?"
