Chapter Thirty-Eight

To make the wine in Jiujue ripples, it will take a huge amount of movement. If everyone can understand this, Hou Sheng saw it and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is it necessary to be the Qin army, not something else?"

"This... Prime Minister, I believe the scouts will not lie." A general of Qi was stunned and said, "Even if he wanted to lie, there would not be so many people lie together. Isn't this uncomfortable?"

The scouts who came to report the arrival of the Qin army were not one or two, but a group of people. If there were lies, would so many people like someone to tell the truth?

Hou Sheng thought for a while and said, "The Qin army is here, well, this is a good thing, a great thing."

"Prime Minister, how can I explain this?" The generals of the sects were puzzled.

"You think, it must be the Qin army who came to help us fight Chu. Qin is worthy of being a brotherly country. I am afraid that we can't defeat Chu, so I sent troops to help the war." Hou Sheng's imagination is absolutely rich.

"This..." The crowd of generals didn't know where to start.

This statement is too far-fetched, but Hou Sheng is eager to make contributions, and he will not be able to think about it if he doesn't do so.

You know, if we can really join forces with Qin to attack Chu this time, Qi will seize large areas of Chu's land and city, and Qi's territory will expand a lot, at least thousands of miles away. This is a great magical achievement.

Since Jiang Ziya was granted the title of Qi, he has never had such a great achievement in the history of Qi for more than 800 years. It is impossible to give up later.

"Prime Minister, what if I mean, what if the Qin army did not come to help me, what should I do?" General Qi asked worriedly.

"Yes." The crowd agreed in unison.

"You are too worried. I said it's okay." Hou Sheng was a little displeased, waved his right hand and left first, saying, "Let's go, follow me to welcome the Qin army."

Although the generals of the whole family were unwilling to do so, they had to follow them.

"The Qin army is here to help the war. This time, the attack on Chu will win!" Hou Sheng thought happily, and walked with great ease, as if he was stepping on a hot wheel, and he was almost flying.

When he arrived outside the camp, Hou Sheng stood still, and the crowd would stand behind him.

Looking around, I saw a huge dark cloud in front of me, connecting the sky and the earth, giving people a heavy sense of depression.

"The Qin army has come a lot." Hou Sheng saw it and was extremely happy, saying, "The soil and dust splashed from the horse's hooves gathered into such a huge dark cloud, and the Qin army has a lot."

"Prime Minister, this is not right." General Qi hurriedly reminded: "The Qin army came from the north, not from the west, and there was a fraud in it."

Qin is in the West. If Qin wants to send troops to help the war, the Qin army should come from the west, not from the north. This Qi general is quite knowledgeable.

"Who said that the Qin army must come from the west? What's wrong with coming from the north?" Hou Sheng was very arrogant and unreasonable.

In this way, General Qi wanted to speak, but dared not speak.

Soon, a beautiful and smooth water line appeared in sight. After a while, the water line turned into a black ocean, and the Qin army was wearing black uniforms, black armor, and holding a black flag.

There are too many Qin troops, and they can't see at first sight, and they are rolling in and their reputation is amazing.

"This... the Qin army is in a combat formation. It's not right, it's not right. Prime Minister, hurry back to the camp and prepare for the battle." General Qi saw the Qin army marching in combat formation and loudly reminded him.

"Swish!" Hou Sheng sneered and said coldly: "This place is very close to the border of Chu. The Qin army naturally wants to advance in combat formation."

There were many clear-headed people among the generals of Qi. They looked at each other and were about to return to the camp and dispatched troops to prepare for the battle. However, Hou Sheng saw it and said in a deep voice: "What are you going to do? Who dares to move around? Cut me." With a wave of his hand, his confidants immediately surrounded the generals.

Qi General saw it in his eyes, and his teeth were so angry that they were about to itch, but he was helpless.

"That's General, General of Qin." Hou Sheng's eyes widened, staring at Wang Jian, who was under Shuai's banner, and finally recognized that this was General of Qin Wang Jian.

"Haha! General, you are here, I want to ruin me!" Hou Sheng was overjoyed. He rushed up as if he had seen his old friend for many years, and ran and shouted.

"Puff." I accidentally tripped by a stone on the ground and fell to the ground. I chewed a mouthful of mud, but I was not angry at all. I got up in a hurry and rushed towards Wang Jian.

He stretched out his arms from afar, looking intimate as if he wanted to hug Wang Jian.

"This is..." Wang Jian rode on the tall horse and saw Hou Sheng's intimacy, and almost fell from the horse's back.

The Qin army came here to deal with these Qi troops. According to Wang Jian's thoughts, there should be a battle this time. Therefore, Wang Jian ordered the Qin army to advance in combat formation from afar. How could he have thought that Hou Sheng not only had no intention of responding to the battle, but also rushed over to greet him so enthusiastically. Do the Qi people want to destroy the country too much?

Although Wang Jian was resourceful, he was still confused when encountering this situation.

"General, are you safe?" Hou Sheng looked red and said hello to Wang Jian as if he had seen his ancestor.

"Very good." Wang Jian was stunned and replied.

"That's good! That's good!" Hou Sheng was so happy that he kept rejoicing Wang Jian.

"Take it!" Wang Jian waved his right hand, and two iron eagle warriors rode their horses, putting the heavy sword around Hou Sheng's neck.

Feeling the coldness coming from the heavy sword, Hou Sheng was stunned, and then shouted happily: "General, you are so interesting, so funny."

Hou Sheng's performance was exactly the same as that of King Jian of Qi. He was truly a useless pair of monarchs and ministers. Wang Jian had seen the arrogant King Jian of Qi and had no intention of seeing Hou Sheng again. With a wave of his right hand, the Iron Eagle Ruiz led Hou Sheng down.

"General, do you want to hold a banquet to drink with me? It's so good, so good! Let's drink it first and send troops to attack Chu tomorrow. Thank you for your kindness." Hou Sheng still didn't realize it, clasped his fists and kept thanking Wang Jian.

"Only with a foolish monarch like the King of Qi can he have such a useless minister." Wang Jian raised his head to the sky, sighing with great emotion.

The generals saw something was wrong and were about to escape back to the camp, but there was no chance. The Qin soldiers rushed up like wolves and stopped these generals.

"The treacherous minister misled me!" Qi General, who became a prisoner, sighed: "There is such a treacherous minister in Qi State, Tianhu!"

After suppressing these Qi generals, the next thing would be easier. Under the command of Wang Jian, the Qin army rushed into the Qi army camp like a tide and disarmed the Qi army.

If the commander is lost, the Qi army loses its backbone and loses a group of generals. The Qi army is just a mess, what else can it do? The only way to surrender obediently.

After controlling the Qi army, Wang Jian brainwashed these Qi army. He first condemned King Jian of Qi's crimes. He could not control his own words and leaked the secrets of Qin. The Qin army had to blame him. In addition, the King of Qi only knew how to eat, drink, have fun, and hunt excessively, without psychological governance, and ignored the lives and death of the people of the country.

These are real sins, and Qi Jun cannot refute them.

Immediately afterwards, the national policy of Qin was promoted, and the benefits of Qin were particularly discussed, especially the Qin State's implementation of "the country has no subsidies, and the people are one; no distinction between high and low, and the same law", which greatly praised the soldiers of the Qi army. Because many of them were slaves, who would not want to turn over?

The brainwashing effect is very good, and the soldiers of the Qi army have expressed their willingness to become citizens of the Qin Dynasty.

After achieving his goal, Wang Jian disbanded these Qi soldiers.

In this way, hundreds of thousands of Qi troops were scattered and Qi was truly in the hands of Qin.

The history of Qi can be divided into two sections, one is "Jiang Qi" and the other is "Tian Qi".

Jiang Qi refers to the Qi State of Jiang Ziya and his descendants. Qi State was originally a fief of Jiang Ziya. At that time, Jiang Zi's fiefdom was not big, a very small piece, and there were many Dongyi tribes around. When Jiang Ziya came to Qi, he was attacked by Dongyi. However, with Jiang Ziya's talent, it was naturally not up to the point of dealing with these Dongyi. Jiang Ziya led the Qi army to fight the east and west, defeated one Dongyi tribe after another, and seized a lot of land. Qi's territory became wider and wider, and thus became a big country.

Jiang Qi has been passed down for hundreds of years and has produced several famous monarchs, such as Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Jing of Qi.

Tian Qi is the Qi State of Tian, ​​and the king is Tian.

The Tian family's original surname was Chen, and was a descendant of Chen Wan, son of Chen Ligong. In the Chen State, civil strife broke out. Chen Wan came to Qi State to settle down in order to avoid disaster, and later changed his surname to Tian.

After taking root in Qi, the Tian family became increasingly powerful and accumulated strong financial resources. They began to buy the hearts of the people, borrowed grain with big buckets, and collected grain with small buckets. In this way, after several generations of efforts, the people of Qi returned to the Tian family. In the end, the Tian family replaced Jiang Ziya's descendants and became the royal family of Qi.

Tian Qi also has several good monarchs, the most famous one is King Qi Wei.

Of course, there was also a tyrant who almost destroyed Qi, that was King Min of Qi. King Min of Qi was a famous arrogant king. He attacked from all sides, which eventually made people angry. Le Yi took advantage of the situation to join forces with the five kingdoms of Qin, Han, Wei, Chu and Zhao, and Yan State, a total of six kingdoms joined forces to attack Qi, almost destroying Qi.

Qi State was located on the shore of the East China Sea, with benefits from fishing and salt, sufficient wealth, and extremely strong national strength. It once regarded the world as the king of Qi, but defeated the overlord of the world at that time, which led to the decline of Wei State from prosperity and in a slump. At that time, the people of the world unanimously agreed that Qi State had the strength to unify the world, which was what everyone expected.

However, within a few hours, Qi State began to decline, which made countless people sigh.

The fall of Qi State lies in the word "partial peace", because Qi State was not proactive. Qi State thought it was located on the shore of the East China Sea without any worries, and could influence the general trend of the world, be able to get the best of both worlds, and gain benefits from it.

From the perspective of diplomatic relations, it is nothing wrong to take advantage of Qi's favorable geographical location, get along well with everyone, and make great gains. However, Qi just waited for the opportunity to come to his door, and was not proactive, did not achieve "no chance to create opportunities", and finally missed a great opportunity and eventually destroyed the country.

Qin is somewhat similar to Qi, except that Qin is located in the west.

Because of its good geographical location and no worries, Qin could advance eastward and fight for dominance. Of course, the measures taken by Qin were completely different from those of Qi. Qin was proactive and had no chance to create opportunities, and would never wait for opportunities to come.

It is precisely because of this that Qin finally succeeded, while Qi failed.
