General Qin

Zhencheng.

Grand Sima Tianchong of the State of Qi was a little surprised that the people from the four countries who followed in the army did not come to persuade him to attack Puyang while Qin General Zhao Tuo fell off his horse.

You must know that Tian Chong stationed troops on the border this time, and he was often harassed by those who had subjugated the country. The Hengyang Lord and Gongsun Xin from South Korea alone came to him several times, trying to persuade Tian Chong to take the initiative to attack Qin in order to stir up Qin. Chu situation.

"Want to use my country of Qi to restore the country for you?"

"Hehe, I, Mrs. Tian, ​​am not a fool."

Tian Chong smiled coldly, although he and Tian Jia were able to come to power with the help of the power of these dead people from the four countries, if they were not so bold as to assassinate Qi Xiang and win, Tian Jia and Tian Chong would not have the chance to take power.

Therefore, after Tian Jia came to power, he reciprocated and sent Tian Chong to lead 100,000 Qi troops to station troops on the border, which was a reward to the people of the four countries, but the reward ended here.

Tian's Qi State is not a puppet of the people of the Four Kingdoms, they have their own logic and ideas.

Qi State sent troops this time only to deter Qin State and save the Chu people from subjugation at the critical moment, instead of going up to head-on with Qin State foolishly.

Before Tian Chong set off, he had been told countless times by Tian Jia that he must never go to war without authorization. He had to wait until the situation on the Qin-Chu battlefield became clear before he could take the next step. Send out one soldier and one soldier.

So don't say that it was Qin general Zhao Tuo who fell off his horse and was injured this time. Even if Zhao Tuo fell into the cesspit and drowned, he, Tian Da Sima, would just take it as a joke and would never send troops to attack Puyang.

Fortunately, those people from the Four Kingdoms seemed to understand what the people of Qi were thinking. These two days were rather quiet, and they never came to try to persuade Tian Chong to send troops.

This actually allowed Tian Chong to enjoy several days of quiet time. Under the service of the beautiful maidservant, he read the books and strategies of war with peace of mind, and his life was quite comfortable.

On this day, his confidant Zou Yang came to report: "Qin General Zhao Tuo has sent an envoy to present (jī) a letter with a gift, and he is here to pay a visit to Da Sima."

"Zhao Tuo sent someone to see me? This is really strange!"

Tian Chong was full of surprise. Although Qi and Qin had not officially declared war, the current situation was considered tense. Under such circumstances, it was very unusual for Qin General Zhao Tuo to send someone to present gifts and repair books.

Zou Yang said with a smile: "Da Sima, I saw that the envoy from the Qin people was quite humble and brought a lot of gifts. I think it was a good intention."

"In that case, I will meet the messenger."

At this point, Tian Chong's heart moved, and he shouted: "Wait, you welcome the envoy from the barracks, let the fighters in the army show their strength, scare the envoy of Zhao Tuo, and let the people of Qin know that we are all together. The might of the country's strong men."

"Da Sima's method is so ingenious, the envoy of the Qin Kingdom will definitely be terrified."

Zou Yang immediately laughed flatteringly.

The camp of the Qi army outside the city.

A middle-aged scribe with a wide robe and long sleeves followed Zou Yang and walked into the gate. They were about to cross the barracks and arrive at the city behind.

"Mr. Li, please."

With a smile on his face, Zou Yang asked Qin envoy Li Shiqi to go forward.

"Thank you Mr. Zou to welcome you."

Li Shiqi chuckled, and walked into the army with servants holding BMWs, famous wine, clothes and other gifts behind him.

Not far away, I heard shouts and shouts of killing coming from the front.

The sound was like thunder, shaking people's ears.

Li Shiqi saw dozens of strong men over eight feet tall fighting each other in the open space of the barracks ahead.

These people are wearing armor and holding weapons, fighting each other, every move is full of fierce and murderous aura.

The sword was swung with a cold light, and the clang and clang of the weapons interlaced made people's eyelids twitch.

Even the most ignorant people can see that these armored men are first-class strong men, mighty men who can easily cut off their heads.

At this moment, there was a loud roar, and one person rose up to fight, and even threw the short halberd in his hand.

In an instant, the short halberd flew out like a thunder and lightning, and with a strong wind, it pierced straight into the ground two meters in front of Li Shiqi.

"Bold! How dare you disturb the distinguished guests of the Qin Kingdom!"

Zou Yang screamed angrily, and the officers who followed him immediately stepped forward and asked the soldiers to take down the man who threw the halberd.

"Mr. Li, a rough man in the army is ignorant and scares the distinguished guests. I will punish him right now."

"It's okay, it's okay, this is a strong man, he just made a mistake in a momentary fight, and there is no need to punish him."

Li Shiqi said with a pale face, forcing a calm posture on his face.

Zou Yang glanced at Li Shiqi's trembling legs, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he waved his hands to ask the military officer to press down the man and beat him up for punishment.

He turned around and continued walking with Li Shiqi.

"Mr. Li, do you know who those people were?"

After walking a few steps, Zou Yang brought up the group of mighty men who were more than eight feet tall just now.

Li Shiqi swallowed his saliva, and said in a low voice, "Look at that, could it be that he is a warrior of Qi martial arts?"

"That's right!"

Zou Yang laughed and said: "Mr. Li really has a good eye. Those people are the fighters of our country of Qi. They move like birds, move like thunder and lightning, and send like wind and rain. Don't be in front of them, don't hurt them. Go out alone, don’t dare to ban Yu!”

"If they go to kill people, they can still kill the generals and seize the flag. No one can stop the direction of the soldiers. What do you think, sir?"

When Zou Yang said this, there was already a deterrent look on his face.

Li Shiqi timidly said: "Skill fighters are extremely powerful. I saw them today and they really lived up to their reputation. In my humble opinion, any one of these warriors can kill me ten times, or a hundred times. One person You can hit me and eat ten or a hundred of them."

Hearing this, Zou Yang laughed, pointed at Li Shiqi and said, "Mr. Li, you are really a wonderful person."

Li Shiqi smiled and chatted with Zou Yang, but his eyes quietly scanned the scene of the barracks, recording the details in his mind.

After a while, Zou Yang took the envoy's gift through the barracks, walked into the city, and arrived outside the luxurious mansion where Da Sima Tianchong lived.

Looking at the magnificent and spacious mansion in front of him, a smile flashed in Li Shiqi's eyes.

As a general in charge of the army, he actually let his 100,000 troops station in camps outside the city, but he moved into a mansion in the city. This Qi State Grand Sima is also a wonderful person.

This feeling became more and more intense after Li Shiqi entered the mansion.

Especially when he saw Tian Chong who was sitting on the soft bed and received him under the service of two beautiful maidservants, Li Shiqi smiled even more in his heart.

Such a person is not a general who leads the army to fight, but a noble son who comes out to play.

Thinking in his heart, Li Shiqi showed a humble expression on his face, prostrated himself on the ground, and said respectfully: "The envoy of Qin, Li Shiqi, has seen the great Sima of Qi."

Seeing the humble appearance of the envoy of Qin, Tian Chong felt happy first, and said with a concerned expression, "Get up. I heard that General Zhao fell off a horse a few days ago. I don't know how the injury is?"

Li Shiqi stood up, hesitated for a moment, and forced a smile: "Thank you, Da Sima, for your concern. My General Zhao is just a little ill, nothing serious."

Seeing the change in Li Shiqi's expression, Tian Chong thought to himself that Zhao Tuo must have fallen badly. If nothing happened, the Qin envoy would not hesitate to answer.

But he still said: "It's fine if there's nothing to do, I wonder what your General Zhao sent you here for?"

Li Shiqi smiled obsequiously, and said: "General Zhao presented a letter to prepare a gift: firstly, I have admired the name of Da Sima for a long time, and today we are neighbors to each other, so I should send envoys to greet each other. Secondly, I want to restore the Qi and Qin families together with Da Sima. good."

"Oh? General Zhao also knows my name, Tian Chong!"

Tian Chong was overjoyed. Although he looked down on Zhao Tuo on the surface, he was actually the shadow of a famous tree. Zhao Tuo's record was so outstanding that he could be called world famous. How could he not care about it in his heart. Now hearing that Zhao Tuo has admired his reputation for a long time, Tian Chong's heart is full of joy. After all, there is no one in the world who doesn't like being flattered.

"Of course, General Zhao has admired the name of Great Sima for a long time. This is a letter from General Zhao, please read it."

With that said, Li Shiqi handed Zhao Tuo's letter to Zou Yang who was standing beside him, and he forwarded it to Tian Chong.

Tian Chong opened the mud seal, opened the silk script presented by the Qin envoy, and looked at it, and his face beamed with joy.

It turned out that the words used in Zhao Tuo's book were very humble.

At the beginning of the article, it is "I have admired the great Sima for a long time", and I will brag about Tian Chong first, and then I hope that Tian Chong can remember the goodness of Qi and Qin for decades, and don't listen to the instigation of those villains who have subjugated the country and start the war.

Although Zhao Tuo didn't say it clearly, the words in the letter still revealed a meaning that Zhao Tuo was afraid of Tian Chong's attack.

I hope that Tian Chong and Qin Jun can be friendly to each other, each guarding the border, and it is enough for the two to complete the tasks.

"Well, it seems that your general Zhao is also a discerning person, you go back and tell him, just let him sit in the city, I have my own sense of propriety."

Tian Chong held back his airs and smiled faintly.

Li Shiqi hastily agreed, bowed his head before leaving, and said, "Before my general left, he also said that Da Sima was skilled in warfare. He admired him deeply. If he can take Da Sima as his teacher, he will have no regrets in his life. I heard that there are military strategists in Qi State The art of war left by the sage Sun Bin, General Zhao yearned for it very much, and sent a villain to ask Da Sima to give him a book, my general will read it every day, and appreciate the virtue of Da Sima.”

Hearing this, Tian Chong, who has always loved the art of war, was overjoyed.

"Your General Zhao defeated the Chu army on the banks of Sishui. He is also a good man who is proficient in the art of war. He is willing to take me as his teacher. It is a courtesy."

"However, since he has the heart to learn military art from me, he is willing to seek the method of "Sunzi of Qi". I, Tian Chong, am not a stingy person, so I will give him a volume, so that he can know the demeanor of the sages of our country's military strategists. "

Tian Chong smiled all over his face, and got up in person, picked out a volume of "Sunzi Qi" military book on the shelf, handed it to Li Shiqi, and asked: "Your general is sick, you should observe this method carefully while lying on the couch." , if there is anything you don’t understand, just ask me for advice.”

"Naturally, naturally."

Li Shiqi agreed wholeheartedly, and withdrew respectfully.

After seeing the Qin envoy leave.

Tian Chong couldn't bear it any longer, he looked up and laughed.

"Although this Zhao Tuo is young, he is a man of discernment, and he knows how to ask me for a volume of "Grandson Qi" to return."

"However, Zhao Tuo must have been unable to command the troops after falling from his horse, and he was afraid that I would take the opportunity to lead the troops to attack. Under fear, he humbly begged with courtesy."

"Looking at it from this point of view, Qin's army is nothing to worry about!"
