Competing

Chapter 651 Chapter [-] Fraud into Dingtao
Linzi, Qi Palace.

All kinds of signs show that Han Xin and Kuai Che have probably guessed the next target of the Yue Kingdom and formally settled Tao.

Dingtao is the gateway to the west of the Qi State. After the capture of this place, the original hometown of the Western Chu State, Pengcheng, Donghai County, and Huaisi County, will be cut off from Linzi, which can be said to be a key point.

Moreover, Dingtao is close to Juyeze, connected with Dahe and Jishui, and it is also an important traffic road. If you occupy this place, you can overlook the entire land of Qilu.

In fact, at this time, it has become an indisputable fact that Qi State will be defeated. No matter which direction Yue State attacks from, the effect is the same, the difference is only in the time.

Han Xin has been battered recently, and the pressure is unprecedented. The situation is very unfavorable to Qiguo, but he is still unwilling to accept defeat.He has been thinking hard to see if there is any way to turn the tide and change the current situation.

But after thinking for a long time, there was no result, and he sat on the throne slumped, silent.

Prime Minister Kuai Che looked at Han Xin's appearance and sighed softly, "King Qi, it's not all helpless!"

"Oh?" Han Xin's eyes lit up immediately, and then his expression dimmed. He shook his head lightly and said, "Prime Minister, there is no need to comfort the widow. Now Qi is passive and helpless. If things go on like this, it will not be the opponent of Yue."

Kuai Che shook his head and said, "No, King Qi, you are not alone and helpless!"

"Then you tell the widow, who else in the world can help us?" Han Xin asked angrily.

Kuai Che said in a deep voice, "Yes, Huns!"

"Huns?" Han Xin obviously did not expect Kuai Che to give such an answer.

Kuai Che nodded and said: "Yes, that's true. The Huns' Maodun Shanyu defeated the old enemy Donghu, and now he dominates the northern grassland. Now that the Huns have invaded the Heshuo Grassland and the northern border of Yanzhao, it is also intentional to come to the south.

If the king asks for his assistance and joins him in dealing with the future potential opponent Yue, he will surely be willing.At this time, as long as the Xiongnu sent troops to Yanzhao and approached Hedong and Guanzhong, the Yue Kingdom would be very passive, and it was possible to suffer a catastrophic defeat. "

Han Xin was silent. After a long silence, he said, "Prime Minister, why did the Three Kingdoms of Yan, Zhao, and Qin build the Great Wall?"

"It's to guard against the Huns!" Kuai Che probably guessed what Han Xin was thinking, and said, "King Qi, but at this time and at that time, this is related to the life and death of Qi State, and it is also the last chance."

"The last chance?" Han Xin sneered: "You are from Fanyang, you should know the anti-style of the Xiongnu and Donghu. Do you have the heart to be burned, killed and looted by the Huns?"

Kuai Che shook his head: "King Qi, these are two different things and cannot be generalized."

Han Xin waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about whether it's too late to contact Maodun now. I also don't want to see the riverside being trampled by the Huns' iron hooves. I don't want to be a sinner and leave a bad reputation forever!"

"King Qi..." Kuai Che wanted to say something else.

Han Xin didn't give him that chance at all, he waved his hand and said, "Don't say any more, I won't do that, strengthen Dingtao's defense, and send Li Zuoche to go there!"

Kuai Che let out a long and helpless sigh, the matter has come to this, what else can be done?
...............................................................

The State of Qi wanted to strengthen Dingtao's defense, but it was a pity that the previous preparations were not sufficient, and it was already too late.

Yin Xu didn't expect to go out to inspect, and a group of Qi State grain requisition soldiers unfortunately hit the muzzle of their guns.

Yin Xu immediately saw some opportunities from this unexpected harvest. First of all, Dingtao was short of food, otherwise he would not have to go out of the city to collect food. In fact, it was no different from robbing.

How long can a city that lacks food and grass last?In this way, it is not difficult to break the city.

Of course, it would be best to break the city before the support from Linzi, and the more than 200 Qi soldiers could just use it. God helped me, and I found a way to break the city without any effort.

Cui He, the general guard of the Qi State stationed in Dingtao, successfully separated the relationship between Luan Bu and Han Xin because it was his informant letter in Zhaodi.As a result, Qi State missed the excellent opportunity to attack Hedong. It can be said that Qi State's current situation is also related to this.

Han Xin believed that Cui He was not Wei Liao's opponent, so he dispatched Guan Ying to go there, while Cui He was transferred to Dingtao to guard against Peng Yue in Daliang.

It's a pity that it's not as simple as taking precautions now. Peng Yue's army suddenly approached, putting Dingtao under a lot of pressure.Cui He didn't want to make any mistakes at this time, at least he needed to persist for a while.However, in order to support Li Zuoche's battle against Zhang Han on the Huaishui River, most of Dingtao's food and supplies were transported away, and there were really not many storages.

It will take time to transfer from other places. In order to strengthen the reserve, Cui Hecai ordered the collection of grain and grass from inside and outside Dingtao City.As for the 200 people in Qijia Village, it was just one of the teams.

It happened that the autumn harvest had just passed, and the surplus food in the people's homes was relatively sufficient, and many people returned home with full load.Naturally, the team from Qijia Village couldn't return empty-handed. They only pushed a dozen or so cars back when the sun was setting.

When he reached the gate of the city, the guard laughed and shouted: "Cheng Liu, it's not bad. Although I came back late, I seem to have gained more than others."

The small school leading the team was named Cheng Liu, and said with a smile, "That's natural. There is a wealthy family in Qijia Village. The family has just harvested food, so it has been prepared for the brothers."

The guard at the top of the city laughed. Seeing that Liangcao was in a good mood, he didn't notice that Cheng Liu didn't seem to speak so naturally.What's more, he didn't notice that there was a soldier standing beside Cheng Liu, with a sharp dagger pressed against his lower back.

"Open the city gate!" The soldiers under Cheng Liu who the guard saw were exhausted and listless, obviously tired from a busy day.It was getting late, so the grain and grass should naturally be transported into the city as soon as possible.

The city gate opened slowly, and Cheng Liu had a strange expression on his face, and shouted: "Brothers, work harder, and rest when you enter the city!"

As a result, the carts started slowly and headed towards the gate of Dingtao City.

The defenders didn't pay much attention, all they cared about was the carts of grain and grass, and they didn't pay close attention to the faces of the grain requisition soldiers.

When several cars passed by the intersection behind the long city gate corridor, they suddenly fell to the ground, their pockets fell down, and corn was scattered all over the ground.

Seeing this, the city gate guard hurried over and reprimanded: "Cheng Liu, you are too careless!"

"General, no, the shaft is coming soon!"

"Really, why is the shaft of the car broken here!" The guard wanted to go up to see what happened.

But what he saw was not a broken shaft, but a shining sharp knife.

"Uh..." When the blood of the gate guard of Dingtao City was sprayed out.

Except for Cheng Liu, all the food transport soldiers took off their hats, and pulled out the ring sword from under the cloth bag...

At the same time, the sound of rumbling horseshoes also sounded outside Dingtao City...
