The Qin army led by Wang Jian came.

Under Wang Jian's leadership, the Qin army went deep into the Chu State, first destroying Chen City, and then destroying Shouchun and Huai River.

After this destruction, the purpose of Qin Yiren to punish Chu has been achieved. The Huai River where Chu is victorious was destroyed, which will be extremely heavy on Chu and will greatly damage the vitality of Chu. Even if Chu wants to rebuild the Huai River, it will be a heavy burden and take a long time.

After leaving Chu State, Wang Jian led his army to Qi State to launch a heavy blow to Qi State.

Qi and Qin were very far apart. Qi was in the east and Qin was in the west. The two countries had no conflicts of interests and maintained good diplomatic relations. Qin had always tolerated Qi. As long as it was not a big deal, Qin would tolerate it. Especially after Fan Sui proposed the strategy of "getting far and near attacking", Qin had even greater tolerance for Qi.

However, this time, Qi State touched Qin Yiren's negative scale and had to be punished. It became necessary to go deep into Qi State to destroy it.

Not long after King Zhao of Qin and Ying Zhu died, their bodies were not cold and they were buried, and the five-nation coalition forces came to attack Qin. This was not something Qin Yiren could tolerate. We must severely punish the five countries. What made Qin Yiren even more angry was that this coalition was promoted by the Queen Mother of Qi, the Queen of the Queen of Qi, and if she had not supported Lu Zhonglian, Lu Zhonglian would not have been able to succeed in joining the Zong.

It can be said that the culprit of the five-nation coalition this time was Qi State, the queen. With Qin Yiren's unwillingness to suffer losses, it would be wrong to cause trouble for Qi State.

How can we make Qi feel pain?

No need to think about it, destroying the salt field of Qi State is enough to make Qi State painful to the bone marrow.

Qi State gained the benefits of fishing and salt. Although fishing and salt are both the "pillar industries" of Qin State, salt is relatively more important. Because no matter how important the fishery is, at most, it is for Qi people to eat it themselves, and it is difficult to sell it for money. You should know that the traffic conditions at that time were not suitable for selling fresh fish. If you want to sell fresh fish, you will die on the way.

However, salt is the main goods traded between Qi and other countries. At that time, seven or eight out of ten salts in the world came from Qi, which shows the importance of salt to Qi.

If Qi's salt farm is destroyed, the blow to Qi will be too heavy, which will make it difficult for Qi's taxes to be collected. In the financial crisis, Qi will not only feel pain, but also hurt to the core.

Of course, if you want to destroy the salt farm of Qi, the Qin army has to take a great risk. Because the salt farms of Qi are all on the seaside, that is, the easternmost place. If the Qin army wants to go deep into the easternmost place of Qi, the journey will be even further and the difficulties will be greater. It is likely to be surrounded by Qi. If it is not good, the entire army will be destroyed.

If others do this, they may not dare to go deep into the heart of Qi to destroy Qi's salt field. At most, it will be a nuisance on the border. For Wang Jian, this is not a problem.

After careful consideration, Wang Jian believed that the chances of success of this trip were extremely high: one was that the Qin army's surprise attack was beyond anyone's expectations. Even if Qi received news, it was too late to mobilize heavy troops to encircle the Qin army.

Second, as long as the response is done, Qi will not even have the chance to encircle. This method is actually not difficult, it is very simple. It is not to stay in one place and leave immediately as soon as it is destroyed, leaving the Qin army in high-speed maneuver. Today is here, tomorrow is there, the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, or even in a day. In this case, even if Qi has a million troops, it is difficult to deal with the Qin army.

Third, Wang Jian was confident that even if the Qin army was in crisis, he could successfully resolve it with his agility.

It was precisely because of this thought that Wang Jian decisively led his army to the hinterland of Qi to destroy the salt field of Qi.

There were not many Qi troops in Langya, and they were caught off guard by the Qin army. The Qi army was quickly killed by the Qin army. Then it was the turn of these salt fields to be unlucky. The Qin army had just charged and the next one was destroyed.

"General, there is so much salt, so much salt." A Qin general rushed over to the horse and shouted at Wang Jian from afar.

When Wang Jian saw that the Qin general's eyes were glowing red. He was excited, and he was even happier than seeing mountains of gold and silver.

"There are not many other countries in Qi, but there is a lot of salt. What's so strange about it?" Wang Jian was unmoved.

"But I have never seen so much salt in my life, it has become a mountain." Although this Qin general was hit by Wang Jian, his excitement did not weaken.

For modern people, salt is nothing. It is too ordinary, so ordinary no one pays attention to it. Only when the salt tastes insufficient when eating will they yell. In the Warring States Period, salt was expensive, and its price was much higher than that of modern times.

Seeing the pile of salt in the mountains was extremely exciting for the Qin army. The Qin army's sharp men stretched their necks, widened their eyes, looked at the piles of salt, and petrified them directly.

They have never seen so much salt, either, or they are shocked.

"What are you doing while standing there? Why don't you go and destroy it quickly!" Wang Jian came over and saw Qin Jun's dazed look in his eyes, and roared like thunder.

"General, can you not destroy it?" Some soldiers were really reluctant to let it go.

"Can you carry it away without destroying it? Or do you want to eat a lot of salt before leaving?" Wang Jian's eyes rolled and his eyes burst into tears.

Although salt is a good thing and is expensive, it is too heavy and obviously not suitable for getting rid of it. As for eating a lot of food, isn't it worth living?

"What a pity, what a pity!" Qin army sharp men shook their heads and sighed, but they had to execute military orders and began to destroy the salt field, destroying all the things used to cook salt, and throwing the salt into the sea.

After completion, Wang Jian gave the order and the Qin army set off again.

There are many salt fields in Langya, and it took Qin army half a day to destroy them. The next goal is the famous Jimo.

Jimo is famous because Tian Dan held on for several years and used it as a basis to miraculously restore Qi. Jimo failed to capture Le Yi's strength, but the Qin army fought without any effort.

Jimo is extremely important to Qi. If Jimo was not available, there would be no Tian Dan to restore Qi. As long as Jimo is captured and Jimo is burned, the blow to Qi will be extremely heavy.

In this way, under the leadership of Wang Jian, the Qin army marched along the coast and specifically destroyed the salt field. For a time, there were countless people in Qi's salt field.

The Qin army flew through Qi like a rush, staying in one place for no more than half a day, and did not give Qi any chance to attack. Soon, the Qin army almost destroyed the salt field of Qi, left Qi, and headed straight for Yan.

The capital of Qi State. Linzi, the palace of Qi State.

The Queen was dozing off, but she woke up the King of Qi and Housheng who rushed in quickly.

"Mother, Mother, big things are not going well. Big things are not going well." King Jianfei of Qi rushed in like a little while, and shouted from afar.

"What's wrong?" The queen opened her eyes and glared at King Jian of Qi in dissatisfaction.

King Jian of Qi shrank his neck and still mustered up his courage, saying, "Mother, the coalition forces were defeated, and the coalition forces were destroyed."

"That's all?" The queen was as calm as usual. She said without any surprise, "If the coalition forces win, I will be surprised."

"Uh." The failure of the coalition forces is a big deal. When the queen comes to the mouth of the king, it is just plain. This puzzled King Jian and Hou Shengji. The two were too surprised and grinded their teeth.

"Mother, why is this?" King Jian of Qi looked confused.

"Yes, why is it strange to win? It's not strange to lose?" Hou Sheng was also puzzled.

"Is Qin Yiren so easy to deal with? If Qin Yiren is easy to deal with, can he become Emperor Qin from a proton? You don't think about it. Which of the things he did in Handan is not great? Although Xinling Jun, Pingyuan Jun and Chunshen Jun are famous people, they are not incompetent people. They still have a few tricks, but they always suffer losses in front of Qin Yiren. What does this mean? It means that Qin Yiren is extraordinary." The queen praised Qin Yiren and said: "Not to mention that Qin Yiren launched troops to fight north and dealt with them properly, even the famous generals today, such as Bai Qi, Le Yi, and Tian Dan. Although Qin lost two kings in a row, the five-nation army fought against Qin, it was a rare opportunity, but it was difficult to defeat Qin."

The Queen is worthy of being a wise queen and a wise man, and has a good vision. Even if Qin is in the midst of national destruction, it will have a heavy blow to Qin's military morale, but it will not be able to do anything to Qin. Qin Yiren will definitely deal with it calmly.

"Mother, since you know what you can't do with Qin, why does the Great Qi still need to participate? And it's your push?" King Jian of Qi became even more confused.

"Yes. Even though I knew I was going to lose, I had to join the war. What is the reason?" Hou Sheng became even more puzzled.

"Haha!" The queen laughed loudly and said, "What's the problem? Only in this way can Da Qi be able to get along with others and gain profits on both sides. If Qin wants Da Qi not to participate, he must give Da Qi enough benefits; if Chu, Han, Yan and Wei, the four countries of Chu, Han, Yan and Wei must also give Da Qi benefits. When you can benefit, it is not necessarily the time to win a battle. As long as you make good use of it, you can gain profits at any time. King Qi, you must study hard."

The Queen is really a smart person. From the perspective of Qi, this kind of treatment is the best. Qi can get along with others and please both sides, and they have to ask for Qi.

"The queen mother is wise! The king is convinced!" King Jian of Qi suddenly realized and praised her sincerely.

"Sister, you are becoming more and more smart, you are worthy of being a member of our family." Hou Sheng was also convinced and spoke very intimately.

It could be heard that the two were sincere. The queen was very pleased. She nodded slightly and said, "Okay, let's go down. I want to sleep for a while."

"Report to the Empress Dowager, Lord, Prime Minister, major affairs are not good, major affairs are not good, Qin army is coming!" However, at this moment of joy, an eunuch rushed in and shouted loudly to destroy the rare atmosphere of joy.

"Talk well, don't panic." The Queen, who was absolutely calm, was not panic at all, raised her eyebrows and said in a deep voice.

It was strange that the Queen's words had a reassuring momentum. The eunuch was no longer so panicked and said: "After defeating the coalition forces, the Qin army did not withdraw their troops back to Qin, but went straight to Chu, destroyed Chencheng, and then came to Huai River, destroying Shouchun and Huai River capitals. Then, then..."

Having said this, the queen looked at the king and didn't dare to say anything more.

"Say!" The queen raised her eyebrows and her majesty immediately appeared.

"Then he rushed into the realm of Da Qi, destroyed the salt field in Langya, and then destroyed Jimo..." The eunuch dared not stop talking, so he had to continue reporting.
