Competing

Chapter 529 Chapter [-]
Han Xin's army came under pressure, and Li Shiqi came to visit immediately!From the perspective of Tian Heng and Tian Guang, this is the established strategy of the Han Dynasty and complements each other.

There wasn't much surprise or surprise, but a little joy. The Han State sent Li Shiqi, who was good at lobbying, to visit Linzi, which meant that the Han State planned to take the initiative to negotiate peace with Qi State.The mood of the uncle and nephew can finally relax a little, which is much better than the original dilemma and helplessness, and also avoided Qi Guo's initiative to propose peace talks, out of a disadvantaged position.However, what kind of plan Han is planning and what kind of harsh conditions will be put forward, I don't know yet!
As far as Li Shiqi was concerned, Han Xin was very cooperative when he smiled slightly when he heard the news on the border of Qi State.When he was still worrying about how to intimidate the people of Qi, he sent troops, which really helped him a lot.And such a coincidence just made the people of Qi think that all this is a whole, and it is the strategy of Han.In this way, the trip will be much easier.

"Li Shiqi joined the King of Qi and met Prime Minister Tian!" Because the matter was so important, Han Xin had already launched an offensive, so he had to speed up and dare not delay, so Li Shiqi met the King of Qi as soon as he arrived in Linzi.

In front of the powerful Han, Tian Heng and Tian Guang didn't think it was very strange that Li Shiqi begged to see him so quickly. It was a good thing for everyone to have peace talks as soon as possible.It may be that the Han State wants to solve the Yanqi matter before the Western Chu State launches its next attack!
"You don't need to be too polite, Mr. Li came from a long way, thank you for your hard work!" King Qi Tianguang was very polite to the envoy of the King of Han.

Immediately after the two parties were divided into guests and hosts, Li Shiqi said: "On behalf of the King of Han, I send my greetings to King Qi and Prime Minister Tian!"

Today's Tian Xiang is Tian Heng. Qi has been in such a mode of joint initiative by uncles and nephews for a long time, but now it has been completely replaced.Moreover, Tian Heng and Tian Guang seem to be the most harmonious couple, much better than before.

"Thank you, King of Han, and please also ask Mr. Li to send greetings to King of Han on behalf of the widow!" Both Tian Guang and Tian Heng handled the courtesy greetings very well, and such a lot of politeness is indispensable when meeting.

"Mr. Li, what else is there to do besides greeting the King of Han this time?" Tian Guang didn't want to beat around the bush, so he asked straight to the point.

Li Shiqi's heart moved, he didn't know if Tian Guang was anxious, or he was unhappy because of the news of Han Xin's dispatch of troops, and then he smiled and said: "In this case, I will not beat around the bush. I came here this time to serve the King of Han." According to the decree, come to unite with the Qi State to deal with the Western Chu State.”

United Qi State against Western Chu State?Both Tian Guang and Tian Heng thought they heard it wrong, and they said it so lightly.Is it just Li Shiqi's politeness, what kind of medicine did Han buy in the gourd?The uncle and nephew looked at each other, and they both saw some confusion in each other's eyes.Maybe this is Li Shiqi's strategy, from the shallower to the deeper.

"Unite with Qi State to deal with Western Chu State?" Tian Guang asked softly, and confirmed to Li Shiqi.

Li Shiqi smiled and said, "Your country's former king, Tian Rong, died because of Xiang Yu, and his relatives died. King Qi and General Tian Heng must be very sad. Such a mortal enmity, the two must also want to take revenge!"

Tian Guang and Tian Heng were taken aback for a moment, what is going on?The first thing to mention is revenge.The two of them immediately realized that Tian Rong's death had something to do with Xiang Yu. Li Shiqi said that the vengeance of killing his father is here. If he remains indifferent, is it not filial?
Tian Guang sighed in his heart, Li Shiqi is an eloquent after all, he pushed himself into a corner in a word.At least Tian Guang was ashamed to unite with Western Chu, and the only choice seemed to be the Han family.It also made the fact that they reached a peace agreement with Xiang Yu morally untenable, and Tian Heng's uncle and nephew suddenly felt a little ashamed.

Li Shiqi continued: "However, the state of Qi has just been restored, and a thousand wastes are waiting to be rejuvenated. The strength of the Western Chu state, if you want to take revenge, you can only plan in the long run. The king of Han just couldn't bear the death of the former king of your country, Tian Rong, for no reason. So the ministers came to inform the King of Qi that they are willing to send troops to conquer the Western Chu Kingdom together."

What are these?what is it?In Tian Guang's heart, he greeted the ancestors of Liu Bang and Li Shiqi many times.Don't you just want to occupy our country of Qi?Isn't what you did in the land of Hebei not obvious enough?As for what he said so high-soundingly, what he did was still standing on a certain moral height, as if he was giving alms to Qiguo.Want to annex Qi, but also make people grateful, thank you so much?
It seems that Han Wang Liu Bang is shameless, this is not wrong at all, it is really shameless to a certain extent!
"Uh, thank you so much for the King of Han's kindness!" Now that the army is suppressing the country, the initiative is in the hands of Han, and he can say whatever he wants, and he dare not easily offend him, really helpless!Tian Guang only needs to suppress the anger in his heart and forcefully answer with a smiling face.

Li Shiqi smiled and said, "You are welcome, King Qi. The King of Han often mentioned his experience of cavalry rebelling against the Tyrant Qin with General Tian Rong. Thinking of the death of the old man, I am very sad..."

It's good to pretend to be hypocritical... Tian Guang felt a little displeased again, and was disgusted with Liu Bang and Li Shiqi's hypocrisy.But what people say is one thing, not to mention caring for my father, what can I say?

Seeing this, Tian Heng said: "Then I would like to ask Mr. Li, the King of Han proposed that the two countries jointly attack the Western Chu Kingdom. I don't know how to implement it?" It's a matter, so point it out directly.

"This..." Li Shiqi chuckled, and then said: "Since it is a joint attack on Chu, it is best to form a unified joint operation, in order to avoid the situation of fighting each other..."

Speaking of this, both Tian Guang and Tian Heng knew that this was the theme. It was obvious what tricks Bang was going to play?The so-called unified operations, avoiding fighting independently, isn't it just a question of the ownership of command and military power!
I thought that Liu Bang's request was that Qi State's military power belonged to Han State... Tian Guang was already a little angry, did he really regard Qi State as a small country like Yan State?You think we are easy to bully, and if we don’t have military power, is Qi still Qi?Is King Qi still King Qi?He would definitely not agree to such a request.

There are always many accidents in this world. When Tian Guang and Tian Heng's uncle and nephew were angry, Li Shiqi changed the subject and said, "Of course, if there is a unified command, the distance between the east and the west is too far, and it is inevitable that the military order will be delayed." It is not good if there is a delay, and it is not good to delay the battle. Therefore, the troops on the eastern front...you should lead the command personally, King Qi, as long as the two armies cooperate well."

Uh?what happened?Liu Bang is so easy to talk, doesn't want military power?It's really a turn of events, some surprises, even some surprises.

"Oh? What else? How did Hanwang arrange it?" Tian Guang relaxed a little and asked softly.

Li Shiqi continued: "Of course, since it is a union, at least there must be an alliance. Since it is an alliance, there must be an alliance leader!"

Just say no?Tian Guang laughed and said: "The king of Han has high virtue and prestige, so the leader of the alliance must be the king of Han!" The leader of the alliance is just a false name, just give it to Liu Bang.But Tian Rong knew that it would never be that simple.

Li Shiqi smiled and said, "Thank you so much, King Qi, Zhang Er, King Zhao, and Zang Tu, King Yan, all think so, and to show their sincerity, they have already surrendered to the King of Han!"

Having said that, Li Shiqi stopped, and there was no need to say anything later, just stop.

Tian Guang and Tian Heng finally knew what Liu Bang's condition was, that is, Qi State surrendered to Han.

Confession is expected, as far as the current situation is concerned, this condition is not very excessive.It is also acceptable for Tian Guang and Tian Heng. They kept their own country, power and status, and they only surrendered to Han King Liu Bang in name.Just like how the princes did to Zhou Tianzi back then, of course, the King of Han must be much stronger than Zhou Tianzi.

Tian Guang asked, "Mr. Li, does the King of Han have any other arrangements?"

"No more!" Seeing Tian Guang's expression, Li Shiqi knew that he had almost succeeded, and said with a smile, "This is enough. The other Kings of Han have said it, so we should consider it in the long run!"

The implication is that Hanwang has so many conditions, which are not harsh!Li Shiqi also sighed secretly, if it wasn't for such an accident on Han Xin's side, why would Qi Guo be so polite and give up a great opportunity for nothing!

Tian Heng smiled and said: "Mr. Li, I heard that there is an army from your country's Marshal Han on the border of our country. What is the situation?"

"Oh?" Li Shiqi smiled and said, "It must be that Marshal Han is exterminating the bandits in Hebei. He may have strayed into your country's border by mistake. I'm really sorry. Later, the King of Han will issue an order to restrain our soldiers and withdraw to Yanzhao Take it with you!"

"Oh, that's it!" Tian Heng smiled lightly, tacitly understanding each other.In this way, the state of Qi does not have to be so nervous, and the Qi army does not have to be on guard.Now it's time to think about how to defend against the Western Chu Kingdom in the south, from one moment to another!
Tian Guang said with a smile: "The King of Han and my father are of the same generation. They used to cavalry together to fight against the tyrant Qin. Moreover, the King of Han also talked about helping us to take revenge. I am very grateful and willing to go west to worship and serve the King of Han!"

Speaking of this, it means that the king of Qi is willing to submit to the king of Han.As far as the current situation is concerned, this is a good choice for Qi Guo, Tian Guang put his heart on it and agreed.In the final analysis, it is just a false name, Qi is still his own!

Li Shiqi's mood suddenly brightened, and it was finally done.Although the trip to Qi was a self-recommendation, there is still some doubts about whether it will be successful or not.Now that King Qi has given an affirmative reply, this matter is settled.In this way, I won't talk about one of my great achievements, but Han Xin couldn't find a reason to enter Qi, and finally he had an explanation to the King of Han.

Sometimes, some people are always happy too early.The news of Li Shiqi's stay in Qi State spread immediately, and Han Xin on the border of Qi State also found out in time...
