Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 178 On July [-]th of the fifth year of the second generation, Xiang Yu's hegemony was challenged for the first time.

Tian Rong nodded slightly. At this moment, his eyes were like the sun, with a sharp edge that devoured the sky.

Obviously, in Tian Heng's words, he painted a picture that he had never seen before.This ray of light in the gap made Tian Rong feel hot.

A good man is born in the world, and no one wants to be king and hegemony, and Tian Rong is the same.It's just that he has never been so close to the throne of King Qi at this moment.

……

Seeing Tian Rong whose expression and temperament changed drastically, Tian Heng talked eloquently, and said, "Containing the Chu State is naturally very different. In today's world, the Chu State is the only one."

"Jiujiang, Hengshan, and Linjiang are guarded by them. It can be said to be a strong barrier. If you protect Chu State, even if the army drives straight in, it is impossible to invade Chu State in the first place."

"The mainland is not suffering from the war, and the Chu State will have unlimited possibilities in the future. Therefore, to contain the Chu State, we must win over the Jiujiang, Linjiang, and Hengshan countries."

Tian Heng's strategic thinking was very clear. He pointed to the huge sheepskin map on the screen wall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, paused word by word, and said: "Although the Jiujiang countries are small, they are located in key points. They are the extension of Qi and Chu. Or alignment has a very different meaning.”

"With Jiujiang, the south can threaten Chu, and the west can force Linjiang and Hengshan countries, and then indirectly blockade Qin. Not only can it prevent Xiang Yu's soldiers from directly attacking Qi, but it also has a buffer effect."

"Among the kings in the world today, besides Xiang Yu, King of Chu, Yingbo, the King of Jiujiang, is the best at fighting. Once there is chaos in the future, Yingbo may be the only general on the battlefield who can fight Xiang Yu head-on."

"However, Jiujiang Wang Yingbu Yong is brave, but lacks in intelligence and resourcefulness, hastily became king, and has no civil and military foundation, so it is difficult to achieve great things for a while, so he has to rely on a strong country."

"Qi has a geographical advantage over Jiujiang. Although Chu has the favor of being the king of Jiujiang, Xiang Yu still regards Yingbo as a subject, and once Yingbo becomes king, he will definitely have conflicts."

"King Yingbo of Jiujiang is sandwiched between Qi and Chu. He can only choose between Qi and Chu. Once Yingbo and Xiang Yu fall out, as long as Qi and Jiujiang are repaired, Jiujiang will become a vassal of Qi."

"The state of Chu in the south has high mountains and deep waters, and a remote and vast area. It has nine counties and is rich in the world. Xiang Yu is invincible in all battles, and his Yafu Fan Zeng is planning a strategy to win a decisive victory thousands of miles away."

"So no matter whether it is the Great Qin Empire or the unified Qi State, they cannot be wiped out in one single battle."

"In addition, the Chu State has always been stubborn, and now its strength is even more powerful in the world. Linjiang is defended by several countries in Changsha, and no country can control it."

"The only effective countermeasure is to unite with the Great Qin Empire and blockade the Chu State and the south of the Huaishui Chendi to prevent it from going north. This is the strategy to contain Xiang Chu."

Tian Heng said excitedly and impassionedly, and said: "If you are so swaying, why worry that the second brother can't establish a foothold in the Qi State, why can't you worry that you can't be the king of Qi!"

The wind lamp flickered, and the firelight formed overlapping shadows above the hall.At this moment, Tian Rong saw a clear road to the king from Tian Heng's words.

Listening, Tian Rong tightly held the hilt on the sword stand, and even his hands trembled slightly because of excitement.

Tian Heng's incisive analysis made him wake up as if enlightened.The future of Qi State is clearly revealed in these words.

After a long time, even though he had calmed down, Tian Rong still couldn't help himself.He slapped the stone table fiercely and said: "Third brother's words are very clear, immediately lead the army into the palace, the state of Qi will be changed!"

"Wei!" Nodding in agreement, Tian Heng walked away with a face full of joy.

After hibernating for so long, looking up to the throne of King Qi, it is close at hand, but I can't get it.This makes Tian Heng, who has a strong ambition, suppress it, and it is precisely because of this that he has today's long-term strategy.

……

On the far side of the southern city, there is a blue military camp.The character Qi on the big banner swayed with the strong wind, like a purple dragon flying in the sky, and could be seen clearly from three to five miles away.

This is where the largest army of the Qi Kingdom is stationed besides the guarding army of the royal city, and it belongs to the army camp of Commander Tian Rong only.

Walking out of the gate of the prime minister's mansion, Tian Heng rode a cart all the way to the camp.The city of Linzi is huge, spanning dozens of miles.After about half an hour, Tian Heng just arrived at the camp where the big banner was flying.

Dozens of dilapidated military vehicles outside the tent formed a gate, and outside the gate were full of Qi army warriors in leather armor holding spears.

Seeing someone coming, a military official wearing a long sword shouted loudly: "This is an important place for the barracks! Dismount quickly!"

Tian Heng waved his hand, and the driver Jiujiu cupped his hands and said loudly: "I was ordered by the prime minister to take over the three armies, this is a military talisman."

"Test!." The general guarding the gate heard the word Bing Talisman, and his expression turned serious: "Please show the Bing Talisman—!"

Tian Heng was on the car, and said: "Give him verification, and immediately take over the three armies!"

"only!"

……

Yaoyao glanced at the soldier talisman, General Changjian quickly stood upright, and shouted loudly: "General, please come in—"

Tian Hengqing knows that a noble soldier is quick, and the longer the time drags on, the easier it is to be exposed.Once Qi Wangtian gets the news, it will inevitably make many changes in the plan.

Thinking of this, Tian Heng glanced at the vast camp: "The prime minister has an order, the three armies are going out to surround the royal city, waiting for the prime minister's order!"

"Wei—!" With a nod in agreement, General Long Sword strode away.

This army only listened to the orders of Tian Rong alone, and because of this, he took orders directly when the soldier talisman appeared.Even if it is to surround the palace, there is no doubt.

As if all this is a matter of course!

"rumble--!"

In a short while, the army filed in, the elite cavalry went first, followed by the infantry soldiers holding long daggers.Surround Tian Heng's chariot in the middle, and the soldiers force the king's city.

"Come on, stop, before the king's city, don't make mistakes—!" The guard general shouted, pointing his long sword at Tian Heng.

Tian Heng waved his hand: "The army stopped advancing and surrounded the royal city, waiting for the prime minister's order—"

"only!"

……

At this moment, the contradiction between the old and new forces broke out completely.Tian Heng led the army to encircle the king's city and confronted Tian Du's pro-army. The two sides were murderous, and there was a tendency to draw their swords to kill.

……

On the city wall, Tian Liao looked gloomy, as King Qi's confidant.He naturally knew that in Linzi City, the only one capable of mobilizing an army was Prime Minister Tian Rong.

The large army surrounded the king's city, which meant that Prime Minister Tian Rong was in trouble.

Thinking of this, Tian Liao's heart was shocked, and he waved his hand to the lieutenant general: "Report to the king immediately, Prime Minister Tian Rong committed a disturbance—"

"only--!"

……

At this moment, the two armies are facing each other in front of Linzi King City.The sky is full of stars, and the endless starlight is shining, as if recording this scene of changing the world.

……

The fifth year of the Great Qin Empire II, July [-]th.Qi Guotian Rong pointed his sword at Wangcheng, and challenged the hegemony of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.
