Chapter 921 Officials Should Report Good News but Not Bad News! Qin Changan Jun Was Born in the Year of the Dog!

King Jian of Qi: Huh? ! !

All the courtiers of the Great Qi suddenly turned their eyes wide and looked towards the palace door. They could even hear the sound of bones rubbing against each other.

King Jian of Qi shouted in shock and anger: "Who is making noise outside the door?"

"Enter the palace quickly!"

The guards quickly opened the palace door, and a city gate guard captain (commanding 200 people) rushed into the palace.

Unconsciously stepping forward, Qi Wangjian stared at the captain of the city gate guards with his eyes fixed, and a cold voice burst out from his teeth: "It is you who is shaking the morale of my Great Qi army?!"

The captain was anxious and shocked and said repeatedly: "My king! How dare I shake the morale of my Great Qi army!"

"Half an hour ago, a merchant entered the city in a panic, saying that his caravan was robbed by the Qin army more than 40 miles northwest of my Linzi city, and all the goods and servants he carried were detained by the Qin army. I hope that my Great Qi will do him justice."

"Although I think this is just the merchant's nonsense, I still sent my guards to investigate."

"Yes! Before my guards returned, more and more people were clamoring at the city gate, saying that they had encountered the Qin army, and the distance was as far as the west of my Linzi city. Twenty miles south!"

"Such an important matter, I dare not take the initiative, I can only report to the king, let the king decide!"

King Jian of Qi threw his sleeves and shouted in an angry voice that was almost broken: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"There is no military report from Gaotang and Changcheng, how could the Qin army reach within twenty miles of my Linzi city?"

Tian Yu nodded in agreement and said solemnly: "This general admits that my soldiers of the Great Qi are indeed not as elite as the Qin army."

"However, Gaotang and the Great Wall are the strongholds that my Great Qi has built with decades of hard work. Even the Qin army cannot let Gaotang and the Great Wall fall without even a military report!"

"This general thinks that the king is wise!"

After the initial panic, all the court officials came to their senses.

The defenses of Gaotang and Changcheng in Daqi are as strong as a copper wall. Not to mention Yang Duanhe's troops, even if Ying Chengjiao personally controlled the earth dragon to attack, it is impossible for the defenders of Gaotang and Changcheng to fall without even a single military report being sent back.

Now there is no military report sent back from the front line, which shows that the border defenders have not yet fought with the Qin army.

The Qin army has not yet reached the border of Daqi, how could it penetrate into the heart of Daqi!

There is absolutely no such possibility!

There was a sigh of relief in the hall, and Hou Sheng was even more angry and ordered: "Take this general away!"

"All those who make noise at the city gate and see the Qin army will be arrested and imprisoned, and tortured severely."

"We must find out what other tricks the Qin army has!"

The company commander's heart sank instantly.

He knew very well that officials should report good news but not bad news. Those who report good news can get some benefits even if the good news is not caused by this official, and those who report bad news will be implicated even if they have nothing to do with the bad news.

But for the sake of the state of Daqi and to repay the emperor's kindness, the company commander personally came to Wugong as soon as possible, hoping to reduce the time spent on trivial matters such as reporting and conveying, so that the court can respond as soon as possible.

The company commander never expected that he would not only be implicated in this worry, but also be suspected of being a Qin army scout and be tortured!

The company commander cried out in sorrow: "Your Majesty! Prime Minister! General!"

"I will never lie, and I have never had any dealings with the Qin army!"

"The most important thing for Daqi today is to send a scout to quickly investigate the movements of the Qin army, so as to prevent Linzi from being attacked by the Qin army!"

"Please, Your Majesty, please investigate! Please investigate..."

Four guards stepped forward at the same time and dragged the crying company commander out of the hall.

Qi Wangjian ordered in a deep voice: "Please ask the Prime Minister to investigate this matter thoroughly!"

Hou Sheng immediately bowed: "Yes!"

Qi Wangjian looked around the court officials in the hall and said: "The Qin army is indeed elite, but Gaotang and the Great Wall of our Great Qi are also extremely strong fortresses. You don't have to worry!"

"Please act according to the military strategy just decided."

"In this battle, our Great Qi is united and will surely be able to..."

"Military intelligence report!"

Qi Wangjian's words were interrupted again, and the sudden call also made Qi Wangjian's heart jump violently, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.

No problem! No problem!

Gaotang and the Great Wall are both fortresses, and they will not be lost!

This military report must be a military report from the coalition forces, not a military report from the border!

Qi Wangjian subconsciously comforted himself, but he did not realize that his voice was trembling: "Send it!"

The door of the hall was pushed open again.

Under the anxious and worried gaze of Qi Wangjian, Tian He and other Qi monarchs and ministers, a general wearing heavy armor and covered in blood floated into the hall with the support of two guards.

"Gao Wanzhong, ahem, Zhongfu, Zhu Dan, meet the king!"

As Zhu Dan moved, fresh blood gushed out of the wound, dripping down Zhu Dan's skirt to the ground, making Zhu Dan's face even paler.

But Zhu Dan ignored his injuries, just looked at Qi Wangjian with pleading eyes and said: "The Qin army sent 20,000 troops to surround Gao Wan (now around Yuancheng, Zouping City), and other troops continued to march towards the capital. The specific number of troops is unknown."

"Please prepare for war as soon as possible!"

Zhu Dan's voice hit Wu Palace like a stun bomb!

The king and ministers of Qi were all shocked by Zhu Dan's words and froze in place, their eyes slowly widened, their pupils slowly shrank, and for a moment they even lost the strength to speak!

After a few breaths, King Jian of Qi finally managed to squeeze out a sound from his throat: "Gao Wan?"

"Zhu Zhongfu said that the Qin army trapped us in Gao Wan?!"

How far is Gaotang from Linzi?

Four hundred miles.

How far is it from Gaowan to Linzi?

Hundreds of miles!

Just a hundred miles!

Just now, I was still imagining that our fortresses on the front line of Gaotang could keep the Qin army out of the country.

So now you tell me that the Qin army has broken into within a hundred miles of Linzi? !

What made Qi Wangjian's heart tremble even more was that since the Qin army had broken into within a hundred miles of Linzi, the intelligence that the Qin army had broken into 20 miles from Linzi had the possibility of coming true!

Zhu Dan nodded and spoke with great effort: "Yesterday at the beginning of the evening (19:00), the Qin army avoided the detection of our scouts and raided the north gate of Gaowan with knights. Fortunately, the city gate guards and the police were not attacked by the Qin army. Fight and capture the city."

"After the surprise attack failed, the Qin army immediately divided 20,000 troops to attack Gaowan, while the remaining troops continued to march southeast."

"I, the Duke of Gaowan County, are worried about the safety of our country and have ordered my subordinates to lead a thousand elites to rush out of the city and report this news!"

King Qi Jian felt a pain in his head, and his brain was about to explode!

The Qin army arrived at Gaowan yesterday, so why would it be difficult to reach the twenty-mile radius of Linzi City today?

With the last bit of luck in mind, King Jian of Qi asked hopefully: "Have you ever found out who the commander-in-chief of the Qin army is?"

Zhu Dan's mouth turned bitter, and he sighed softly: "I saw the Qin army's banner!"

Those with big banners can only be used by the head coach.

The Qin army's banner is here, so do you need to guess who will be under the banner? !

Hou Sheng whispered with a trembling voice: "Qin Chang'an Lord? Is it Qin Chang'an Lord?!"

"Now the coalition forces are fighting fiercely with the Qin army in Dukang, and Lord Qin Chang'an actually led his army south to attack Linzi?!"

"How is this possible! This is impossible!"

"Does Lord Qin Changan not care about the safety of the main force of the Qin army?"

"This military report must also be fake!"

The main forces of the Qin State and the main forces of the coalition forces gathered in Dukang for a battle. The victory or defeat of this battle directly determined the outcome of this battle, and could even influence the survival of the four kingdoms of Qin, Dai, Yan, and Qi!

As the commander-in-chief of the Qin army, Ying Chengxuan did not stay in Dukang area to command the main force in an honest and cautious manner, but instead led his army south to attack Qi State Linzi?

Isn't it that Ying Chengyu is afraid that the coalition forces will break through the Great Wall of Yishui and then go on a rampage to destroy Qin all the way!

This is unreasonable!

More importantly, Lord Qin Changan was still doing business with the prime minister half a month ago. Why is it that he is about to destroy Daqi after half a month?

Chunyu Hu said bitterly: "I have frequent contacts with Lord Qin Changan, and I know more about Lord Qin Changan."

"Any other general would not take such risks."

"But if Mr. Qin Changan did such a thing, it would be quite reasonable."

"Colleagues, please don't forget that Prince Dan of Yan sent an assassin to assassinate the Queen of Qin. Lord Qin Chang'an actually proposed to cooperate with Lord Dai Wu'an in exchange for a road to the Kingdom of Yan."

"After the failure, Lord Chang'an of Qin destroyed Zhao in one battle, but then he did not close the territory of Zhao and wipe out the remnants of Zhao. Instead, he continued to lead his troops eastward and chased Prince Dan of Yan at high speed. He did not stop fighting until Prince Dan of Yan died. !”

"Qin Chang'an Lord is willing to do anything to achieve his goals. Anyone who slanders King Qin, Lord Qin Chang'an will do everything possible to avenge King Qin!"

Chunyu Hu is a man of quality and culture.

If Chun Yuhu had no quality, he would definitely say that Mr. Qin Changan is a dog!

If he wants to bite you, he will bite you to death even if he is wounded all over!

King Jian of Qi shouted in shock and anger: "I never sent an assassin to kill the King of Qin! I just betrayed the alliance and never did anything to cause a blood feud between the two countries!"

"Does Lord Qin Chang'an want to fight to the death with me just because he betrayed his alliance?"

Qi Wangjian can't understand it, really can't understand it!

Breaking alliances is really too common in this era, so it won’t drive Ying Chengyu crazy!

Chunyu Hu shook his head and sighed helplessly: "It doesn't matter how the king views this matter."

"The King of Qin said that this hatred can only end with the destruction of the country, so in the eyes of Lord Qin Chang'an, this hatred is a deep hatred that can only end with the destruction of the country!"

"With Lord Qin Changan's temperament, he will do anything for revenge!"

Ying Chengyu had the motive to go south in person regardless of everything.

With Ying Chengyu personally taking command, it is possible for the Qin army to suddenly appear twenty miles around Linzi City.

A strong fear and panic quietly enveloped Wu Palace.

The front line of Gaotang is indestructible.

The Great Wall is a line of copper and iron walls.

However, there are no eggs!

These two lines of defense have been bypassed by the Qin army, and the capital of Qi State, Linzi City, is facing Ying Chengyu!

After repeatedly rushing to aid Gaotang, the total number of troops in Linzi City was only 30,000!

Qi Wangjian's lips trembled, and he looked at the ministers tremblingly and asked: "My dear friends!"

"Do you have any good advice?!"

Qi Wangjian panicked.

Really panicked!
