Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

You must know that before, Qi Wangjian had no choice but to recall Zhou Fen from Gaowan City because he knew very well that the defenders in Linzi were about to lose their support.

After all, the city of Linzi is too big, and it is indeed difficult to hold on to it with just such a small number of people.

Most importantly, the siege of Linzi made Qi Wangjian very insecure.

After all, the people who came to surround Linzi this time were not the weak Yan people, but the Zhao people who had already wiped out the three great powers of Yan, Wei, and Han, and their combat power was unparalleled in the world!

As a result, it was all right now, the reinforcements had completely vanished, Qi Wangjian no longer had any hope, only tens of thousands of people were left to guard Linzi for him.

Moreover, according to the latest information, a large number of Zhao troops came from the west today. Judging from the flags, it should be the main force of the Zhao army led by Li Mu.

As soon as Li Mu's main force arrived, the Zhao army outside the city was already close to 30 people, forming an overwhelming advantage over the Linzi defenders in terms of strength.

How is this still playing?

A sense of the end of the world enveloped the entire city of Linzi, and the heavy pressure made Qi Wangjian almost collapse, which is why he is so groggy now.

The entire hall was full of ministers of the Qi State, but no one could have a smile on their faces, and everyone was in a gloomy mist.

Today, Zhao Jun's destruction of the city is no longer an incomparable possibility, but has become a fatal problem that is close at hand.

Qi Wangjian let out a thunderstorm, and then looked at the courtiers in front of him with hopeful eyes: "Is there any way for you to solve this problem?"

Wherever Qi Wangjian looked, all the ministers of Qi State bowed their heads in silence as if avoiding snakes and scorpions.

It's not that these Qi ministers are unwilling to do their best, after all, we must know that there are mostly people from Zhou Fen's main combat faction in this hall.

But the problem is that the situation is like this, and there is really no way to think of it.

There was an embarrassing silence in the hall.

Just when Qi Wangjian wanted to get angry again, a general of the Imperial Guard Army of Qi State walked into the hall and reported to Qi Wangjian: "Your Majesty, the three clans of the rebel General Kuangliang have all been captured. , a total of 650 four people."

Qi Wangjian frowned, and said very dissatisfied: "That's all?"

The general of the Imperial Guard was stunned for a moment, but immediately came back to his senses, and hurriedly said: "There are about 500 people in custody, including servants and retainers."

Qi Wangjian snorted heavily, and said murderously: "If that's the case, what are you waiting for? Pass on the widow's order, and all Kuangliang's close relatives will die in a car crack! Kuangliang's father's family, cut him in half! Mother's family, cook Hey! All servants and servants of this thief from Kuangliang, beheaded for public display!"

After Qi Wangjian issued this murderous order, the bodies of all the ministers of Qi State in the hall couldn't help but tremble.

Although it has been known for a long time that Qi Wangjian must have thunderous means to deal with Kuang Liang's betrayal, but all these kinds of tortures are used, it is really a bit sensational.

This time, thousands of lives were lost!

During the grand ceremony, when all the ministers were in complicated moods, Qi Wangjian suddenly stood up again, and said in a deep voice: "Masters, follow me out of the hall, and let's take a look at these traitors who have betrayed the widow and the state of Qi." Guys, what kind of fate is going to happen!"

After saying this, before the other ministers came back to their senses, Qi Wangjian had already taken a step and walked towards the entrance of the hall first.

On that day, the screams on the square outside the Qi State Hall lasted for a whole day.

All the ministers of the Qi State who witnessed the killing returned to their homes with extremely ugly faces.

Qi Wangjian, who finally felt somewhat relieved because of the killing, did not know that on this night, more than a dozen ministers of Qi State quietly gathered in a certain mansion.

There was only one light in the dark secret room, and the expressions of everyone could not be seen clearly, but this extremely oppressive atmosphere infected everyone, making people feel breathless.

After a long while, someone whispered, "What should we do now?"

"What should we do?" Someone sneered and said, "Now the king has gone mad. In recent days, the king has killed no less than ten ministers just because he had an old relationship with Hou Sheng! Now there is another Kuang Liang thing, hey"

Another person said: "It's not just the old ones with Hou Sheng, otherwise, if Hou Sheng has been friends for so many years, who is not old with Hou Sheng? I think it means that the king has lost his mind and gone crazy."

As soon as this remark came out, it even won a lot of echoes.

Some even sighed and said: "To be honest, this kind of life is really sad, maybe someday one of us will lose his life."

Suddenly, a dark voice came from the corner: "Since that's the case, it's better to just reverse it!"

As soon as this sentence was said, the secret room suddenly became very quiet, so quiet that a needle could be heard.

After a while, another person suddenly said: "Don't you see it? When Zhao State conquered other countries, it always severely punished those who resisted to the end, but gave extremely preferential treatment to those who were willing to surrender. If we don't want to end up with the fate of being exterminated by Zhao Jun, then we can only offer our city to Zhao Jun!"

A gray-bearded minister of the Qi State suddenly reached out and slammed the table hard, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I'm the only one involved in this matter!"

Almost in a moment, everyone said one after another: "Count me in." "I'll join too." "I'm against it too!"

Everyone talked and discussed for a while, and finally decided.

"Tomorrow is the time for us to make a fuss!"

Chapter 9: A Sudden Surprise (Second Update)

On the fifth day after taking Gaowan City, Li Mu's army arrived at Linzi City.

After setting up camp, Li Mu summoned the generals to discuss matters.

Speaking of which, this was the first military meeting after the main force led by Li Mu joined forces with Ju Xin's side divisions.

I saw Li Mu said in a deep voice: "Now there are only tens of thousands of defenders in Linzi City. If our army 30 people besieged the city here, it would be a waste of troops. I plan to send a partial division to Donglai to continue the sweep The counties of the Qi State have made Linzi a completely empty city without rescue! Who is willing to take on this important task?"

As soon as Li Mu's words fell, many generals of the Zhao army rushed to speak: "Governor, I am willing." "Governor, I can lead the army to smash Donglai for the governor!"

For a moment, the sound of fighting filled the entire tent.

Donglai, which is the current eastern region of Qi State, has not yet been controlled by Zhao Jun.

Of course, there are quite a few sensible people in the Zhao army. Although the victory of Linzi must be the greatest credit, the problem is that 30 troops are crowded here. Who can guarantee that they are the lucky ones?

So it's better to take the land of Donglai safely and steadily, and it's true to get this credit.

These days, nothing is as good as the military exploits you get.

Amidst the hustle and bustle, Zhao Kuo, who had been silent all the time, was also a little moved.

If Zhao Kuo continued to stay in Linzi, then there must be credit, but the great credit cannot be expected.

After all, Zhao Kuo is just a lieutenant general.

"Why don't I take the credit for this Donglai."

Zhao Kuo felt that if he spoke, there should be no big problem with his status as a lieutenant general.

Zhao Kuo had already made up his mind, and when he was about to speak, suddenly an old and heroic voice sounded: "You don't want to fight anymore, this time I will take over Donglai's chief general, this old man is determined!"

Zhao Kuo and the chief general in the tent looked up one after another when they heard the words, and then realized that the person who said these words was none other than Ju Xin, another deputy general in the Zhao army.

After seeing Ju Xin, Zhao Kuo frowned, and suppressed all the words that came to his lips.
