Chapter 552: Messenger Zhang Yi

The turmoil in Shangqiu City did not cause much waves in this long river called "World".

At this moment, the eyes of most people in the world were focused on the east, falling on the Wei army that had just conquered Jimo, the last important town of Qi.

"Prime Minister, Young Master Ying and his entourage are about to arrive."

Outside Jimo City, Wei Xianggong Sun Qi silently listened to the news brought by the messengers coming on flying horses, and behind him stood the elites of the Wei army who had survived hundreds of battles.

"Thank you for your hard work, please step back."

"Here."

When the figure of the messenger disappeared from the front, Wei General Pang Juan, who was standing half a step behind, had already arrived beside Gongsun Qi.

"Prime Minister, Your Majesty is not planning to destroy Qi State, but has chosen to support Young Master Ying to become the next monarch of Qi State."

"This is indeed the most appropriate choice at this time."

Gongsun Qi nodded slightly, and the light in his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate reality and see clearly the layer of fog that covered the general trend of the world.

"In today's world, although we, the Wei Dynasty, are powerful, our national and military strength far exceed that of any other princes, but if the princes attack together, our country, the Wei Dynasty, will inevitably suffer considerable losses."

"Preserve the kingdoms of the princes, support a monarch who is close to our Wei Dynasty, weaken the strength of these princes little by little, and finally completely incorporate them into the territory of our Wei Dynasty."

"The blazing fire will make people feel fear, and the gentle water will make people feel close to each other. What I, the Wei Dynasty, want to do now is this water flow."

After speaking eloquently, Gongsun Qi's eyes turned slightly and fell on Pang Juan beside him, "Of course, the blazing fire cannot give up."

After listening to Gongsun Qi's words, Pang Juan's eyes were filled with admiration, and he bowed down as if he were there.

"Prime Minister, Pang Juan has learned a lesson."

After looking at Pang Juan with satisfaction, Gongsun Qi suddenly asked about another matter, "How is the progress of Rhinoceros Heading in the direction of Lushan?"

When he heard Gongsun Qi ask about the war, Pang Juan reappeared his unique temperament as a battlefield veteran, and the look in his eyes was very sharp.

"I report to the Prime Minister that the war in Lushan is going very smoothly."

"Our army has superior strength and is guided by Lu soldiers who are familiar with the terrain. The Qi army that narrowly escaped in the battle of Changguo is no match for our army. In several encounters, the Qi army suffered heavy losses and retreated again and again.

.”

"Faced with the advantage on the battlefield, Xishou did not underestimate the enemy and advance rashly. Instead, he fought steadily, eating away at Qi's remaining soldiers bit by bit."

"Now the last army led by Qihou Tian Yinqi has been firmly surrounded by Xishou's army. I believe there will be good news in the near future."

"That's good."

Gongsun Qi looked forward again. At this moment, an army was slowly emerging on the horizon in the distance.

In fact, there was more than one team starting from Anyi, and another team had already arrived at another battlefield on the land of Qi.

Lushan front line, Wei camp.

In the large tent of the Chinese army, the chief general of the Wei army, Gongsun Yan, the rhinoceros leader, was holding a letter in his hand and sitting on the position of the chief general.

Just at this moment, a personal guard walked into the tent and quickly came to Gongsun Yan's side.

"Report to the general that an envoy from King Anyi has arrived."

Putting down the letter in his hand, Gongsun Yan had a look of caution in his eyes, wondering why the king would send an envoy here at this moment.

However, although he had doubts in his heart, Gongsun Yan still sat upright and ordered loudly: "Please!"

"Here."

Soon after the guard left, he turned back again, and a young scholar appeared in the tent with him.

"Zhang Yi, I have seen a rhinoceros head."

"Gongsun Yan, I have seen the envoy."

He didn't take the young envoy too seriously. After the two sides exchanged greetings, Gongsun Yan immediately asked Zhang Yi about his purpose of coming, "I wonder why the envoy came to Lushan?"

"By order of the king, I came to persuade the Marquis of Qi to surrender."

Hearing Zhang Yi's answer, Gongsun Yan's face immediately showed a bit of displeasure, "Envoy, does anyone know where the Marquis of Qi is? It's on the mountain where our army is currently besieging."

"Then does the envoy know where the Marquis of Qi was? In Linzi, in Changguo, in the vast Lu Mountain."

As the words continued, Gongsun Yan's face became more and more dissatisfied, "The envoy knows why the Marquis of Qi came here. It was our soldiers who used the sharp swords in their hands to besiege him here in battles."

Seeing that Gongsun Yan was dissatisfied with him clearly, Zhang Yi's young face did not show any panic at all, but looked very calm and calm.

"Young rhinoceros leader, don't be impatient. Zhang Yi is just following orders."

With one sentence, Gongsun Yan, who was dissatisfied with him, calmed down a little. Zhang Yi continued, "When two armies are fighting, they usually treat themselves with courtesy first and then attack with force. What's more, the person opposite him at this moment is the Marquis of Qi?"

"Zhang Yi came here just to show the magnanimity of the Wei Dynasty to the Qi State and the world. As for whether he can successfully persuade him to surrender, there is no way of knowing."

"As for what Xishou is worried about, although Zhang Yi is in a humble position, he also knows that we, the Wei Dynasty, have been rewarding meritorious deeds since Li Kui became Prime Minister."

"Don't worry, Xishou. Your Majesty and the Prime Minister will not forget the achievements of you and your soldiers, and they will definitely give you generous rewards after the war."

In a few words, Zhang Yi dispelled Gongsun Yan's concerns that he was here to "pick peaches", and the atmosphere between the two relaxed a lot.

"Gongsun Yan is narrow-minded, please forgive me, Brother Yi."

"Rhinoceros head doesn't have to be like this. If Zhang Yi were rhinoceros head, he would face this matter like this."

Their eyes looked at each other, a smile appeared at the same time, and there was a feeling of sympathy between the two.

"Brother Yi, please wait here. I will immediately select elite soldiers to escort Brother Yi into the mountain to meet the Marquis of Qi."

"There is no need to go to such trouble." Zhang Yi shook his robe gently, "Zhang Yi didn't even wear a long sword when he came to Qi, he only brought this three-inch tongue..."

"That's enough!"



"Reporting to your Majesty, the envoy from Wei wants to see you."

On the mountain besieged by the Wei army, a guard rushed over and reported to Qihou Tian Yinqi that there was a Wei envoy seeking to see him.

Upon hearing the news, Prince Tian Biqiang on the side immediately showed anger, "Wei Guo and I are already fighting to the death. It's better not to see this envoy. You..."

"slow!"

The voice of Tian Yinqi, the Marquis of Qi on the side, interrupted Tian Biqiang's order, "Since Wei has sent an envoy, you might as well meet him."

"Go and invite the messenger over."

"Here."

Not long after, following the footsteps of this guard, Zhang Yi finally met Qi Houtian Yinqi and his party.

"Wei envoy Zhang Yi has met the Marquis of Qi."
