Chapter 368 Chaos
.Chapter 368 Qi Chao [Zhong]
At this moment, Tian Zixing, who was sent to bring, arrived in time. There were also a thousand neatly decorated Tian private soldiers who were traveling with Tian Zixing. Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, Tian Chang was immediately overjoyed and excitedly said to Tian Zixing who was coming towards him: "Zixing, come and help me."
Tian Zixing was surprised when he heard Tian Chang's request for help. How could my troops, such as my own, make the eldest brother retreat outside the palace? And depending on the situation, it seems that he was not coming, and the eldest brother might have to retreat further. Tian Zixing was puzzled, but he also knew that now was not the time to ask. Tian Zixing immediately pulled out the long sword from his waist and shouted: "Come on."
The thousand Tian family's private soldiers immediately covered the two wings and killed them together with Ziwo and his private soldiers.
Faced with several times the number of me, of course, Zi I and my soldiers were still fighting bravely, but Tian’s private soldiers were not a soft persimmon to bully. After a short period of fighting, Zi I was not as powerful as Tian’s. I had no choice but to take the private soldiers back for a distance, using the palace gate as the dividing line to separate the two private soldiers. Outside the palace gate are the Tian’s private soldiers, and inside the palace gate are Zi I’s private soldiers.
Seeing that I retreated, I dared not continue fighting. Tian Chang did not choose to take advantage of the victory, but immediately ordered the private soldiers to stop attacking.
Seeing this, Tian Zixing frowned and asked the driver to drive the chariot to Tian Chang. Tian Zixing said half dissatisfied and half confused: "Brother, what are you doing? My chance to kill Zi is right in front of me, why are you hesitating? He actually ordered the stop of the attack. If you are not my elder brother, I really doubt whether you have been bought by Kan's family."
Tian Chang explained helplessly: "The thing is not as simple as you think. I just got the news. The king had already learned about my attack on the palace city and was furious. Now he has sent troops to capture me. I am afraid my life will be lost. I think I should go back to the fief and wait and talk about it. Otherwise, I will be hit by the king's soldiers, and it will be difficult to escape at that time."
When Tian Zixing heard this, he was anxious and didn't care about his superiors and lowliness. He shouted loudly: "Indecisiveness is the enemy who has accomplished great things. Now that he has reached this point, do you have any other choice? Can you save the Tian family by retreating to the fief? Do you want to live a life of mediocre hiding in the future?"
Tian Chang is also an ambitious person. When he heard Tian Zixing's words, he also aroused his ambitions. "Zi Xing, what you said is that I did not realize that the person who attacked and killed Ziming. No matter who it is, I rewarded him with 200,000 yuan, and ten slaves gave him the post of the family priest and above, and promoted him to the official position."
As the saying goes, there must be brave men under heavy rewards. When the private soldiers of Tian family heard this, they immediately felt like they were injected with chicken blood and were full of energy. In addition, their troops were several times more than those of the private soldiers under my command. In this case, the morale, which was originally depressed due to the previous defeat, quickly rose, and was even higher than before.
I don’t know how powerful I am, I don’t believe in evil. I think that the Tian family’s private soldiers who were beaten to the point of being beaten to the point of being beaten by me are now just pretending to be powerful. How could they recover their morale so quickly? Besides, if I can’t defeat them, it’s enough to drag the reinforcements from the Lord to arrive, and the result is the same.
I was not willing to be outdone, and then loudly encouraged my private soldiers and said, "Don't be afraid that our number is less than the enemy, but justice stands on our side, we will definitely win in the end, and the army of the Lord will soon arrive. Now they are just because of the madness before death. As long as they last for a while, when the army of the Lord comes, the rewards I promised before the disaster will be doubled. Don't be afraid. Although they are more than ours, as long as we guard the palace gate, they will not be able to enter too many people."
Although the private soldiers under my command were also afraid of the Tian family's private soldiers, Zi My words also make sense. The best proof of Tian Chang's retreat before was Tian Chang's troops. Obviously, it was Duke Qi who sent soldiers to support Zi My.
In addition, the wealth is moving, and the private soldiers do not need to kill Tian Chang, they just need to hold Tian Chang back. With the advantage of the palace gate, the Tian family's military strength cannot be exerted. In this way, the number of people we fought against is exactly the same. Are you afraid of one-on-one? When the private soldiers think of this, they immediately responded to their morale. Although it is not possible to say that they are no longer afraid of the Tian family's private soldiers, at least this fear is within the range that I can accept.
Tian Chang has no way out of this point. Although I am tenacious, Tian Chang is not much stronger than me. In order to make the soldiers attack more desperately, Tian Chang decided to beat the drums himself to help the battle. Tian Zixing commanded the private soldiers to build a siege ladder from the palace walls on both sides to expand the attack area. No matter what, they would disperse the opponent's troops.
Although I also know Tian Zixing's conspiracy, Tian Zixing's plan was an open plan, so I had to deal with it head-on. I had no choice but to send someone to the city wall to shoot arrows to prevent the Tian family's private soldiers from climbing the city wall. I was by the palace gate and personally directed the soldiers to block the palace gate.
The palace gate also became the most intense place for the two sides to fight. The narrow palace gate passage was densely filled with soldiers. The soldiers on both sides collided violently like two torrents.
The weapons here have lost their function, and shields and daggers have become the best weapons. Soldiers can only numbly stab the daggers. They don’t know whether they are stabbing people or shields, and they will quickly retract them and then numbly.
Many soldiers died in a daze, no matter how powerful your martial arts are, it doesn’t matter whether you are a private soldier of the Tian family or a private soldier of my son. Because the number of deaths on both sides is similar, it can no longer be considered a war now, but only a struggle for troops.
No one knows when they will be stabbed, and many people don’t even know who they will kill. The narrow palace gate was filled with blood as much as a stream, and the bodies with residual heat were wading across the aisle of the palace gate, and using their remaining bodies to raise the terrain of the palace gate bit by bit.
The palace gate is so ruthless and so cool. He usually symbolizes the majesty of the king, as if he has become a demon, a meat grinder, and as if the mouth of a giant beast, tirelessly devouring the flesh and blood of the private soldiers under my command. No one knows how much he needs to "eat" to fill his stomach.
If you want to survive at this moment, the only thing you can do is to numbly stab the short sword out, which is to pray, pray that luck will come to your side. That kind of helplessness that makes people fear, because fate is not in your hands, and slowly helplessness begins to deteriorate, and he turns into madness. It seems that only in this way can we vent the fear in our hearts.
Crazy also made the war even more tragic. Those who had just entered the battlefield also felt the helpless atmosphere, so they began to slowly become crazy. After the war has reached the present, the war can no longer be used to smile, and the tragic situation is so fierce that no knowledgeable literary master can perfectly describe the current situation.
Let’s talk about Duke Jian of Qi. After he issued the order to capture Tian Chang, he did not continue to enjoy himself, but sat upright in the main seat waiting for news. After a while, Duke Jian of Qi did not wait for Tian Chang, but instead waited for a hurry doctor. The guards guarded on both sides glanced at the doctor. After seeing the other party’s appearance, he not only did not stop the other party, but also made a small step away. Duke Jian of Qi knew who was coming when he saw this situation. It was probably the Taishi (historian) Zi Yu.
Because the only official position of Taishi is responsible for recording the fair and big things of Qi Jian as a historical basis, Taishi Ziyu is also following Qi Jian Gong. The guards are already familiar with Taishi Ziyu's situation, so the guards will naturally not stop Taishi Ziyu and let Taishi Ziyu and others report.
As soon as the Taishi Ziyu stepped into the palace, Qi Jiangong asked casually: "What's the matter with Taishi coming to find me? And it's still in a hurry, it's definitely not a trivial matter."
"I heard that the Lord sent troops to capture Tian Chang, but I don't know if this is the case." The Grand Historian Yu bowed to Qi Jian Gong and asked neither arrogant nor humble.
Mr. Jian of Qi snorted coldly and said angrily: "It's right, Tian Chang dares to attack the palace city. He really took the courage of the leopard and didn't send anyone to catch him. How can I keep my face? How can I keep the face of Qi? Could it be that the Grand Historian came to plead for Tian Chang?"
The Grand Historian Yu shook his head, asked the question and said, "The Lord thinks the Tian family is powerful, or the office is powerful?"
"Of course, the office is strong," said Mr. Jian Qi proudly. "Shi Shi, what are you asking about this? Even the three-year-old child in Linzi City knows the answer."
Taishi Ziyu said: "The Lord said nothing wrong with this truth even a three-year-old child knows it. So is Tian Chang not even a three-year-old child? Doesn't he know the answer?"
Mr. Jian of Qi frowned and asked, "Shi Shi, what do you want to say to me?"
"The Tian family is not as powerful as the office. How dare Tian Chang cause trouble? I think Tian Chang wants to eliminate harm to the country?" said the Grand Historian Yu.
"Eliminate harm for the country? I'm a joke. If he is harmful, then what is that?" Mr. Jian of Qi said disdainfully. However, Mr. Jian of Qi's tone has been much more relaxed than before. It seems that the words of Mr. Ziyu are not without effect.
Taishi Zi Yu said calmly: "Don't you know who I am studying under?"
"What does Taishi mean?" Mr. Jian of Qi hesitated for a moment and said thoughtfully.
"Zi, my master is Confucius. Confucius is valued by the Han marquis and his disciples are spread all over the Han Kingdom. Zigong and Zilu are even more powerful ministers of the Han Kingdom." When the Grand Historian Ziyu said this, he paused and secretly glanced at Duke Jian of Qi. Duke Jian of Qi frowned. It was obvious that Duke Jian of Qi also knew that this possibility was quite good.
Taishi Ziyu continued: "The Zuo Prime Minister (Tian Chang) got the news that Zi and Zigong, Zilu and others had contact and were preparing to betray Qi, so they attacked the palace today."
Mr. Jian of Qi was not stupid either. He knew there was something wrong with this and said, "Why didn't Tian Chang tell me? He led his troops to attack the palace city without authorization?"
The Grand Historian Ziyu is worthy of being a historian. He is knowledgeable and has a dark mind. He soon thought of the reason for the explanation. "The reason for this is that Tian Bao, the favored disciple around me, learned that Zi, I learned that his affair with the Han Kingdom was leaked today. The Left Prime Minister sent troops to capture Zi me, but he did not expect that he was misunderstood by the Lord."
When Duke Jian of Qi heard this, hesitated. "This matter..."
The Grand Historian Ziyu knew that he had to strike while the iron was hot, otherwise Duke Jian of Qi would not hesitate anymore, and then said, "Master, please take back your life quickly. The Left Prime Minister is just going to capture me. Afterwards, the Lord sent someone to summon them to talk here. Wouldn't the matter be clear at that time? But now it's different. The Lord sent troops, which may cause the Left Prime Minister to misunderstand and lead to civil strife in Qi."
When Duke Jian of Qi heard this, he immediately felt that Taishi Ziyu's words were very reasonable and said, "Thanks to Taishi remind me, otherwise it would be a big mistake. People come and go quickly to let the soldiers come back."
"Yes," a soldier responded and left quickly.
I don't know that Duke Jian of Qi had abandoned him at this moment. Although he had a good location, after struggling for half an hour, the soldiers under my command could no longer bear it. I was very anxious and estimated the time. Logically speaking, the soldiers on the lord had arrived early. But before he came, was there any accident?
Zi, I gritted my teeth and felt that things could not be delayed. No matter what I wish, I am afraid that the army on the Lord would not be able to rely on. Zi, I was decisive enough and immediately ordered the driver to turn around and escape.
But how could Tian Chang not be prepared? The Grand Historian Yu helped Tian Chang and naturally sent someone to report the news. After Tian Chang received the news, he began to concentrate on his enemy, thinking that I, a guy, could not fight with him here. In the end, he would probably choose to escape in the end. The direction of the escape was probably the South Gate, because after escaping from the South Gate, it was easy to go to the Han Kingdom. Of course, Tian Chang was not arrogant enough to think that his expectations must be correct, so Tian Chang also sent people to ambush at other palace gates, but the South Gate had the most troops.
I have made a lot of calculations, but I can't calculate that I was "sold" by Mr. Jian of Qi, and even more so that my escape route was solved by Tian Chang. I have just left the south gate and was about to go to Han to join the master and a group of fellow brothers. A loud trumpet sounded on both sides, and more than 200 Tian's armored soldiers rushed out from both sides.
All of these Tian's armored soldiers were murderous and had no intention of capturing Ziwo alive. They all bowed and arrows in the direction of Ziwo's soldiers. Seeing this, Ziwo was shocked and opened his mouth and was about to order the horse to turn around and escape. But even when they were talking, Tian's armored soldiers did not give Ziwo to me. Because they had already let go of the bowstrings, they heard a sound of the bowstrings, and the four innocent war horses on the chariot, and Ziwo and others on the chariot had become hedgehogs. Ziwo and others were naturally shot to death by arrows. Only a few war horses were strong in vitality and had not died for a while. They struggled with their four hooves and made a shrill cry...
