After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 316 Take down Yidu
After Tian's army arrived in Linzi, Gao Zhang already realized that the situation was not good, but he still had a hope in his heart, that is, if Guoxia's army could rush back in time, the situation would definitely improve.

It's just that no matter what Gao Zhang did not expect that the Han army would come so quickly, and they had already reached Yidu, not far from Linzi. The purpose could not be more obvious, that is to prevent Guoxia's army from returning.

Under such circumstances, Gao Zhang already knew that he was powerless, so he didn't care about anything else, and immediately took the family members of the Guo family and the Gao family, as well as the young Marquis Qi, and prepared to break out from the city of Linzi.

It's just that it's too late, and after repeated attempts, it still doesn't work. Under such circumstances, Gao Zhang felt quite helpless, and specially recruited Zisu and Qian'er in front of him, and said in a heavy tone.

"At this time, as the Prime Minister of the Qi State, the old man naturally wants to protect the monarch of the Qi State. As for if you can escape from Linzi City while taking advantage of the chaos, you will immediately head towards the Great Wall of Qi. Zisu, yours!" Father is there."

"If you can't, then you can only resign yourself to fate. The matter has come to this point, and the old man is full of regrets. If I had known today, I shouldn't have let Tian Xizi lead the army out that day, and there would be no disaster like today."

Zisu is naturally martial, and her personality is more aggressive. After hearing what Gao Zhang said, she immediately stood up and said with her chest out.

"Uncle Gao, please don't worry, no one can hurt Qian'er without me, but please be very careful, Uncle Gao."

Although Qian'er is relatively weak, she is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. At this moment, she said with a firm face.

"Father, please rest assured that if something unbearable happens, my daughter would rather die to show her will than let her father be ashamed."

Tears welled up in Gao Zhang's eyes when he heard this, he raised his hand, and wanted to say something more, but in the end it turned into a silence. Watching the carriage drift away, he sighed heavily , turned around and rushed towards the palace.

The ensuing battle immediately turned into a one-sided situation. The Tian family and the Bao family directly entered the city of Linzi and quickly controlled the situation. Their goal was only one, and that was the palace.

All of a sudden, there were killings inside and outside the imperial palace. The young Qi Hou huddled in the arms of his mother, with a look of horror on his face. Gao Zhang sighed in his heart when he saw this scene. Hou was able to show his courage.

Standing at the head of Linzi City, raising his arms and shouting, the current situation may be better. As a result, he saw a frightened and helpless young man, which made Gao Zhang's last hope completely extinguished, and Ge Si was also at a loss at this time. , asked.

"Didn't you say, Xiangguo, that there will be reinforcements coming soon? How long will it take? Why do you hear the shouts of killing and seem to have entered the palace? Could it be that Linzi City has already been breached?"

Gao Zhang sighed helplessly, saluted with a heavy face, and then spoke slowly.

"Now that the Han Kingdom has sent troops, it has reached the distance. Yidu is not far from Linzi City. At this time, the reinforcements may not be able to rush back. Even if the old man is risking his life now, he will also protect the safety of Marquis Qi and his wife. "

"It's just that the palace can't stay anymore. It would be best if we can break out of the encirclement while the chaos is happening outside. Otherwise, everything will be over."

Hearing what Gao Zhang said was so serious, Gu Si had no idea at this time, but could only obey his arrangement, so she hurriedly took the young Qihou and followed Gao Zhang out.

In the chaos, Tian Qi and Bao Mu rushed into the palace with people, and learned that Gao Zhang had led Qihou to escape Linzi City, so naturally he refused to give up, so he chased after him, and the whole Linzi City fell into chaos among.

At this time, Meng Di was attacking Yidu calmly. When the news came that Linzi City had been breached, the defenders of Yidu directly chose to surrender. Meng Di led his troops into the city and took food, gold and silver. after.

The first choice was to help the people who escaped from Linzi City. On the contrary, they did it so impressively that they were better than what the people of Qi State did themselves. At this time, the army waited to report back, and Guoxia had already brought the army ready to return.

After Meng Di got the news, he was very energetic, he smiled and said to Yu Rang and Shi Huang beside him.

"Guo Huizi probably returned with the determination to die this time, so we don't need to fight hard with him. We just need to slow down Guo Huizi's marching speed. Tian's action is fast enough this time, and I'm afraid it won't take long. Qi will have a new monarch."

Shi Huang grinned, with an excited look on his face, so he nodded and suggested.

"My lord, if this is the case, why don't you let me take people and horses and attack Qi's cities everywhere. These places are really rich, and now our horses can't hold enough money to carry them."

"Now we have grabbed a lot of horses. In this way, we can ship more money back. This trip is really easy, but it is much easier than attacking Jin."

But Yu Rang had a pensive expression on his face, he objected after thinking for a while.

"I'm afraid it's not a good thing to do this. After all, we have achieved our strategic goal now. If we do it too clearly, it may not be so easy to hold peace talks with Qi in the future."

After the two of them finished expressing their opinions, Meng Di slowly stood up and said.

"We came to Qi this time not to plunder more money, the most important thing is the population, so I don't plan to bring all the money and food back. Don't bother with other cities and continue to attack."

"What Yu Rang said is very good. We will rely on Qi State to help us resist Jin State in the future. If Qi State's strength is overly weakened, it will not be a good thing for us. Taking some population is not a big loss for a big country like Qi State. Not big."

"More importantly, we can't personally destroy the image we have just established in the hearts of the people of Qi. Yu asked you to attack directly with [-] cavalry, slowing down Huizi's marching speed."

As soon as Yu Rang heard the order, he immediately clasped his fists to accept the order, turned around and walked out of the big tent. At this time, Meng Di said to Emperor Shi.

"Your most important task during this period is to manage the soldiers, so that they don't violate military discipline, and stay in Yidu with peace of mind. Sometimes you can't give up long-term plans for immediate benefits, understand?"
