Chapter 256 What, Qi also withdrew its troops?

Kuang Liang raised his head with some difficulty and showed an extremely reluctant smile to the messenger: "The messenger was tired all the way. Can you rest for a while? I will summon all the generals to send orders tomorrow. How about it?"

Kuang Liang's words were clearly pleading.

The envoy shook his head and said, "General Kuang Liang, the minister of the next minister has a word for you - do not do anything, don't go against the trend!"

This sentence seemed like a silent arrow that hit Kuang Liang's chest directly, causing his body to start to shake.

Anyone who is hiding in the political arena of Qi knows one thing--thought to offend the king than to offend the queen! Although the King of Qi focuses on enjoyment and rarely pays attention to state affairs, he is not a cruel and killing king. In recent years, few ministers in Qi have been ordered to be executed by the King of Qi.

But Hou Sheng is the opposite. Hou Sheng is extremely jealous and always retaliated. If an official of Qi dares to disobey Hou Sheng's order, then being dismissed is the best result. Many people will find other reasons to counterattack after being Hou Sheng. It is common for families to be destroyed.

Moreover, in the past two years, the King of Qi's trust in Housheng has been significantly strengthened. None of the officials proposed by Housheng were refuted by the King of Qi but were approved in full. Housheng almost completely controlled the personnel power of Qi, so that Kuang Liang, the important minister of Qi, who was one of the "Five Officials of Qi", could only act carefully under the shadow of Housheng.

Kuang Liang swallowed a saliva and said after a long time: "I understand, please rest assured, I will obey the order."

In the Wei army camp, Xinling Jun sat in front of Jin Bi and spoke with a serious expression: "General Jin Bi, I know that you have a lot of opinions about me, but now the Chu army suddenly retreats, and the hearts of the coalition forces are shaken. If you and I have the same internal strife as before, I will probably really miss the victory!"

Jin Bi looked at Xinlingjun in front of him and said after a long time: "Xinlingjun thinks what should I do next?"

This sentence made Xinling Jun breathe a sigh of relief and immediately said: "The next thing is very simple, it is to fight Zhao Kuo immediately, the faster the better! Otherwise, once the kings of other countries are told to withdraw their troops, it will be too late to regret everything!"

Jin Bi frowned for a long time and was quite hesitant.

After all, Xinlingjun is the object of Wei's fear. If Jin Bi listened to Xinlingjun's opinions here, would the King of Wei feel that Jin Bi secretly colluded with Xinlingjun?

Xinling Jun seemed to see the doubts in Jin Bi's heart and said earnestly: "Please think about it carefully. If this battle is defeated, will Zhao let the Great Wei go?

That is the time when the real disaster of the Great Wei Dynasty is coming. I ask the General to make the most correct decision for the sake of the millions of Great Wei military and civilians!"

Jin Bi sighed long and said, "Since you said that, what else can Jin Bi say?

When I meet Grand Sima Kuangliang tomorrow, I will tell Grand Sima what you mean."

This is agreed.

When Xinling Jun heard this, he was overjoyed and smiled and said, "Thank you, General, for taking the overall situation into consideration. Although this battle is full of difficulties, we will definitely win!"

Jin Bi and Xinling Jun, a political enemy who were originally completely unconfronted, chose to work together, with only one goal - to defeat Zhao Kuo, Wu Xinjun of Zhao Kuo, the country! A night passed again.

The next morning, Jin Bi and Xinling Jun got up early, quickly completed the army, and then came to the front of the formation.

The main general of Yan State, Ju Xin and the main general of South Korea, have arrived, but the main general of Qi State, Kuang Liang was missing.

Xinling Jun looked around and found that there was silence in the Qi army camp. No army was launched. A vague premonition appeared in his heart: "Where is the Grand Sima Kuangliang?"

Everyone was shocked, but no one could answer Xinlingjun's question.

At this moment, the gate of the Qi army camp finally opened, and Kuang Liang's carriage slowly drove out under the escort of a group of Qi soldiers and stopped in front of everyone.

Kuang Liang's face looked extremely haggard, his eyes were covered in blood, and his face was helpless, and he said to the other three kings in front of him in a hoarse voice: "Everyone, I just received the name from the King of Linzi last night and asked me to... withdraw my troops.

I'm very sorry, everyone."

...Han Wen, Ju Xin, and Jin Bi were stunned at the same time, looking at Kuang Liang in disbelief.

"Sima, aren't you kidding?"

"Grand Sima, Qi State is now the leader of the overall situation. You have withdrew your troops, what should we do?"

"Grand Sima, think twice!"

The three of them urgently asked and persuaded him did not move Kuang Liang, but smiled helplessly: "Everyone, to be honest, I actually don't want to withdraw my troops, but just as what Jingyang Grand Sima said yesterday... it's hard to disobey the king's order!"

It was obvious that when Jingyang was there, Kuang Liang fought with Jingyang for the position of true commander, but at this moment, Kuang Liang suddenly understood the mood when Jingyang withdrew yesterday.

It's so uncomfortable.

On the Lingqiu City Wall, Lian Po, with Lian Jing and a pair of personal guards, were strideing.

Lian Jing said happily: "Father, since the Chu army retreated, the enemy's offensive has been significantly reduced yesterday. Lingqiu City should be able to hold on for a longer time!"

Lian Po's white hair was blown up by the morning breeze, his face was still quite serious, and he said lightly: "It's not time to relax now. There are still as many as 300,000 enemy troops outside the city, and he still has the ability to break through Lingqiu City at any time!"

Having said that, Lian Po actually felt a lot more relaxed in his heart.

If he could survive, who would die?

Lian Jing responded quickly and suddenly sighed, "The 300,000 is indeed a little more. It would be great if one or two of the remaining four countries withdraw their troops."

Lian Po was stunned for a moment and couldn't help laughing: "You can think of it. I'm afraid even Wu Xinjun dare not think so!"

Suddenly, a scream came from not far away: "Look, everyone, Qi State, have the people of Qi withdrawn?"

Lian Po and Lian Jing and his son stopped at the same time.

The next moment, the figures of the two men instantly appeared on the edge of the battlement, and their four eyes stared at the Qi army camp outside the city.

Sure enough, in the camp full of purple flags, countless Qi soldiers were slowly driving out of the camp, around Lingqiu City and heading towards the east.

Lian Jing said in a trembling voice: "Father, the people of Qi... have they withdrawn?"

The muscles on Lian Po's cheeks could not stop trembling. After a long time, he said, "Yes, I've really withdrawn."

Amid the cheers that echoed the sky on the city wall, Lian Jing asked his father another question: "Father, do you think this is also under Wu Xinjun's calculation?"

Lian Po was silent for a long time and sighed to the sky.
Chapter completed!
