Linzi, Qi Palace.

After listening to Housheng's report, King Qi could no longer bear it and kicked Housheng to the ground with one kick.

"Idiot, a total idiot!"

King Qi cursed at Hou Sheng, and all kinds of dirty words burst out.

This King of Qi has never seemed so disobedient, and his disobedient actually comes from fear in his heart.

Just this morning, Li Mu, the number one general under Wu Xinjun, had led Chiyou's army to the outside of Linzi City as a vanguard, completing the preliminary blockade of Linzi City.

It is predictable that Wu Xinjun will inevitably lead more than 100,000 main forces of the Zhao-Han alliance army to follow closely and will arrive in Linzi soon.

With the tens of thousands of defeated soldiers who had just retreated to Linzi, can Qi defend Linzi?

No one dares to guarantee it.

Although the envoys who have been sent to other vassal states for help have been urgently sent, will anyone really come to rescue him?

No one can guarantee it either.

King Qi's mentality collapsed, and Hou Sheng, who failed to negotiate peace, became the best target for venting his anger.

Faced with the anger of King Qi, all Hou Sheng could do was kneel on the ground and shivering.

At this moment, Hou Sheng's heart was not only fear, but also hatred for Zhao Kuo.

If Zhao Kuo hadn't refused to negotiate peace, none of this would have happened.

Wu Xinjun, please wait for me! After scolding for a quarter of an hour, King Qi was finally tired and kicked Hou Sheng on the shoulder: "Get out, get out of here, I don't want to see you again!"

Hou Sheng left in a hurry.

Looking at Hou Sheng's back, King Qi spat heavily: "What else can you do except flattery?"

When Qi was peaceful and peaceful, Hou Sheng could bring many enjoyments to the King of Qi, such as beauties, fine wine, etc., but at this moment, the advantages of Hou Sheng became shortcomings in the King of Qi's eyes.

The King of Qi calmed down and made his demeanor become noble again. He said lightly: "Come here, call Kuang Liang to meet him!"

A moment later, the Grand Sima Kuangliang of Qi State walked into the hall and knelt down with a thud: "The criminal Kuangliang has seen the king!"

Kuang Liang led about 40,000 defeated soldiers to return to Linzi yesterday.

The King of Qi looked at Kuang Liang with a disappointed expression on his face: "Kuang Liang, I will entrust all the elites of Da Qi to you, hoping that you can defeat Zhao again and usher in a real hegemony for Da Qi! But see what you have done?

So many elite soldiers in the Great Qi have all become stepping stones for that guy Zhao Kuo's success and fame!"

Kuang Liang was ashamed and kowtowed, "Please punish the king!"

King Qi stared at Kuang Liang, his eyes flashed, and he remained silent for a long time.

With the character of King Qi, Kuang Liang is undoubtedly the first person responsible for the current huge crisis in Qi. Of course, he must be punished severely. Not to mention beheading or dismissal from office, he must at least be demoted to serve as a warning.

But Zhao Kuo is about to come to the city. If Kuang Liang is removed from office and removed from office at this time, who else can lead his army to resist Zhao Kuo's offensive?

After a long time, the murderous intent in King Qi's eyes slowly faded away, and he spoke coldly: "Kuang Liang, I will give you another chance to commit crimes and make meritorious service. This time you will defend Linzi for me, do you understand?"

Kuang Liang showed an unexpected expression on his face. He had never expected that he would be let go by the King of Qi. He was immediately moved and said in a deep voice: "Please rest assured, as long as I am still alive for one day, Linzi City will definitely not fall into Zhao Kuo's hands!"

After Kuang Liang left, King Qi sat alone in the hall, silently silent.

The eunuch of Qi State walked out of the corner and said softly: "King, there have been many voices in Linzi recently, all of which hope that the King will go on a southern tour."

The so-called southern tour is actually an euphemism of escape.

The King of Qi said coldly: “No.

I am the king of Qi. If I retreat, Linzi will not be able to defend it! This time, unless the city is broken, I will never leave!"

The King of Qi was born in Jucheng. At that time, when Le Yi occupied the 72 cities of Qi, the only one left of Qi was Jimo City, which was stationed by the Chu army, which was stationed by Jimo City, which was stationed by the Chu army, was struggling to support it.

It was not until King Qi was one year old that Tian Dan took advantage of the opportunity that Le Yi was dismissed from the position of chief general by King Hui of Yan to defeat the Yan army with the Fire Cow Formation and restore the entire territory of Qi in one fell swoop.

It is precisely because of this background that the deceased Empress Dowager of Qi has always been instilling an idea into the King of Qi.

Until the last moment, the king will never escape! The King of Qi took a deep breath and said, "Issue an order immediately and recruit troops in the city with all my might and prepare to deal with the Zhao army's attack!"

At dusk that day, the main force of the 150,000 Zhao and Han Allied Forces arrived outside Linzi City under the leadership of Zhao Guowu Xinjun Zhao Kuo, and officially completed the siege of Linzi City.

"The King of Qi didn't leave?"

When Zhao Kuo heard the news, he showed an unexpected expression: "This guy doesn't actually learn from his father?"

The father of the King of Qi, the previous generation of Qi king, Tian Fazhang, was famously cowardly.

After Linzi was captured, a large number of Qi royal families and princes died in battle. Tian Fazhang, who was still the prince of Qi at that time, fled south in a panic, and fled directly to Jucheng, the southernmost part of Qi.

After entering Jucheng, Tian Fazhang was worried that exposing the prince's identity would make him offered to the Yan army, so he went to the residence of Taishi in Jucheng to work as a servant and lived in Jucheng for a full five years.

A very scared father actually gave birth to such a tough son. What about the promised character inheritance?

If the King of Qi doesn’t leave, it will be difficult to conquer Linzi.

Xu Li smiled and said, "If the King of Qi doesn't leave, wouldn't this mean that the Lord will be able to capture the second king of another country after the King of Qin alive?"

Zhao Kuo was stunned at first, then couldn't help laughing: "Uncle Xu, if you know how to talk, just say more."

The king and his subjects looked at each other and laughed.

The news that Zhao and Han allied forces surrounded Linzi was heard, and the world was shocked.

Chencheng, Chu Palace.

The King of Chu sat on the hall and spoke with a worried look on his face: "My Lords, Qi State has just sent an envoy to ask for help. Do you think I should agree to the King of Qi's request for help?"

As soon as the King of Chu finished speaking, Chu State's commander Yin Chunshenjun immediately stood up and said in a deep voice: "King, the Great Chu and Zhao State are allies. They just signed an alliance in Handan a few months ago. If they are enemies with Zhao State at this moment, wouldn't they betrayal?"

The "gratitude order" that Zhao Kuo taught Chunshenjun had been presented to the King of Chu by Chunshenjun.

The King of Chu appreciated this very much, but because Chunshen Jun had just lost the battle, the King of Chu did not immediately let Chunshen Jun promote him.

But even so, Chunshen Jun still regained the trust of the King of Chu with Zhao Kuo's plan and stabilized the position of Ling Yin, who had already been shaky.

As the saying goes, Chunshen Jun naturally wants to stand up and support Zhao Kuo.
