Great Zhou Tianzi

The Qin army set up camp and was not in a hurry to attack, and the two sides entered a confrontation stage.

……

Outside the east gate, there were hundreds of carriages covered with thick linen, and it was impossible to see what was loaded on them.

Ji Jie came to the top of the city and asked, "Who are they?"

The guard shook his head and said, "I asked several times, but I just refused to tell you! You have to show your identity when you come up, and they have been waiting below for almost an hour!"

Ji Jie frowned, it looked like he was giving me something, but why didn't he reveal his identity?

Let's go down and take a look, it's really embarrassing to shout on the top of the city.Ji Jie rode out of the east gate, accompanied by only two brothers Xiong Ba and Xiong Ben.

At this moment, a man dressed as a coachman jumped out of the first carriage, clasped his fists at him, and said, "Your Excellency Zhao Wenjun is really extraordinary, he dared to go out of the city with only two followers, I admire you!"

Ji Jie jumped off his horse and said with a smile, "Have you asked this friend's name yet?"

"My lord, Guan Li!" Guan Li lowered his voice and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "These things were given to Mr. Zhao Wen by my master. There are a total of 20 arrows, [-] shi of grain, and some other things. ! By the way, my master's surname is Qin!"

It turned out to be Miss Qing!

This is really a timely help. Before Ji Jie could be happy, he suddenly realized a very serious problem: Qin Qing is from Qin.

King Qin respected Qin Qing even more than Lu Buwei. When Qin and Zhou started a war, Qin’s trading company sent over the information without reservation, and Qin’s army sent troops to Zhaocheng, and immediately sent supplies. To put it seriously, this is Chi- Naked-naked treason!

From the very beginning, Ji Jie made a conclusion that when Qin and Zhou started a war, no matter how much supplies Qin's trading company provided to the Qin army, as long as Qin Qing himself could remain neutral in his heart, it would not be easy.

The facts exceeded his expectations.

Guan said in a lower voice: "A few days ago, the trading company provided Meng Ao with 20 arrows and [-] shi of grain!"

In other words, Ji Jie received the same amount of supplies, and Sister Qing not only maintained her neutrality in her heart, but also reflected it in her actions.

Ji Jie is so excited, I really don't know what to say.

"My master also said..." Guan Li continued: "She will put some pressure on Meng Ao in terms of supplies, and at the same time put some pressure on the King of Qin, so that they will give up the practice of being an enemy of Lord Zhaowen as soon as possible..."

Qinqing and Qin's business company are of great importance in Qin State. To put it bluntly, without Qinqing, the commercial activities of the whole country will come to an abrupt end, and various materials and commodities will be severely cut off, which will directly affect the military and government. In other aspects, a powerful kingdom will also decline overnight.

King Qin can ignore Lu Buwei's wink, but he has to give Qin Qing some face.

The reason why the convoy went to the east gate was to deceive people, to let the people of Qin know that Ji Jie had received the same amount of supplies, and it would be a waste of money!

Moreover, what was provided to Meng Ao was paid, and what Ji Jie provided was completely free.

It is clear at a glance which is more important.

Once again, Ji Jie is fortunate to have recognized Qin Qing, a beautiful woman, as her older sister. With the support of her powerful business empire, she can do whatever she wants!

The supplies brought by Guan Li were secretly purchased by Qin's Trading Company in Zhao State, and delivered here via Wei State, without arousing suspicion from others.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Guan!" Ji Jie said sincerely, he knew very well that it was not easy to accomplish such a thing.

"Mr. Zhaowen is polite!" Guan Li said modestly: "This is my duty. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, we will not go into the city. Please send someone to bring the carriage in! Please leave! "

"Mr. Guan is going well all the way, and there will be a period later!"

"There will be a period later"

20 arrows!The defense of the royal city lasted for half a month, and only consumed less than 20 arrows. If they had [-] arrows, they could hold out for at least another ten days, or even half a month.

Although Zhaocheng and Longcheng have stored a lot of strategic materials, no one can guarantee when the battle will last, and once the war starts, the Qin army will adopt the method of besieging the city, and by then no materials will come in. With these things, it is more sure to fight a protracted war.

Because of the emperor's death, Ji Xueling has been in a bad state these days. Ji Jie had to transfer Sima Xueran back from Longcheng to act as his right-hand man.

Today's Sima Xueran is wearing a long pink dress, which sets off Miaoman's body more perfectly, and the delicate headgear makes her look naughty.

Seeing Ji Jie with a smirk on his face and the cartloads of supplies being pushed into the warehouse, she said angrily, "A certain person is so lucky. Someone sent information when there was no war, and someone sent supplies before the war started. I don't know." What else will be sent after the fight!"

Why does this sound a bit sour, Sima Xueran is not as jealous as Ji Xueling, at least when Ji Jie and Ji Xueling are together, she will not show any jealousy!

What happened today, Qin Qing became jealous for no reason, the relationship between Ji Jie and Qin Qing is a little abnormal, but few outsiders know about it!

"Hehe, I really know how to joke..." Ji Jie's expression was a little awkward, and he quickly thought of the answer, what does Sima Xueran do, behind her is the huge Sima family, and he wants to know the relationship between him and Qin Qing , that is not a piece of cake.

"Qin Qing was erected by King Qin!" Sima Xueran promptly reminded, "You have to handle your relationship carefully, otherwise you may end up ruining your reputation because of this matter."

Tsk, King Qin is a fart, a master who has been put on a big green hat but doesn't know anything about it!I even seduced the emperor's daughter and Princess Zhao, why are you still afraid of him!

Seeing Ji Jie's indifferent expression, Sima Xueran shook his head helplessly.

Two days later, in the early morning, the Qin army began to attack the city for the first time. The formation was the same as when they attacked the king's city.

The stone ball hit the city wall, only a small crater appeared, Ji Jie smiled and said: "Not bad, the Mo family is indeed a master of city building, this city wall is really solid!"

Zhao Ling nodded.

Ji Jie looked back at the dozens of giant trebuchets waiting in full force under the city wall, and said, "Then don't rest, fight back!"

"Your order, strike back!" Zhao Ling roared, and the trebuchet began to reload.

The reason why they didn't dare to fire in front of the Qin army was to test whether the city wall was solid. Now that they had the answer, the trebuchet hidden behind the wall opened fire on the Qin army's position set up in the open.
