Qi is a vassal state in Chinese history from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and is one of the four major states in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Since Jiang Ziya assisted the Zhou Dynasty in destroying the Shang Dynasty, he was then feuded and established a state. The Qi Dynasty was divided into two eras: Jiang Qi and Tian Qi.

The first emperor of the Qi people was Grand Duke Jiang Shang (Jiang Ziya).

Since the founding of the state by Taigong, the people of Qi have cooked salt and cultivated fields, becoming rich and armed with hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

When it was passed to Duke Huan of Qi, it was already a large eastern country whose territory was close to the sea. Through "respecting the king and rejecting the barbarians", Duke Huan became the first of the five hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period and conquered all directions.

Qi was revered as the land of the sea king by people at that time.

Later, Tian He was classified as a vassal by King Zhou An, and Jiang Qi was replaced by Tian Qi, but he still used the name of Qi and was known as "Tian Qi" in the world, becoming one of the seven heroes of the Warring States Period.

During the period of King Min of Qi, Qi expanded externally, swallowing the Song State in the south and conquering the Qin people in the west. This was the period when Qi State had the most extensive territory.

Looking at the country of Qi for more than 800 years, the country's destiny has been ups and downs. It has been glorious, prosperous, and declined.

During this period, the capital of the Qi people was almost always Linzi (today's ZB, Shandong). The capital was moved only once during the reign of Duke Hu of Qi, to Bogu (50 miles northwest of Linzi). However, after the Tian family took over the Qi Dynasty, the capital was moved back to Linzi.

The ancient city of Linzi has been worked hard by the Qi people for hundreds of years. It can be imagined that the ancient city of Linzi has strong defensive capabilities and a rich heritage.

However, after the Qin army surrounded it in three directions, this ancient city still came to an end.

In April, there is still a hint of chill in the air, and the spring chill is steep.

But the Qin army attacking the city was full of enthusiasm and fighting spirit.

What does it mean to capture Daqi?

It means that Qin will sweep Liuhe and complete the unification of the Central Plains!

This means that the Qin people came eastward and their long-cherished wish to unify the Central Plains was finally fulfilled.

It means that their king will soon become the king of the world and establish a lasting legacy!

It means that the Qin people became the overlord of the Central Plains!

This means that King Qin will become the undisputed Emperor of the People, surpassing the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

All the Qin troops, whether they were generals or soldiers, had the same idea. For themselves, for the sake of Da Qin, and as the master of Da Qin, they vowed to conquer Linzi, achieve eternal achievements, and achieve great unification.

In order to complete the efforts of generations of Qin people, the grand ambition of going east to bring peace to the world!

At this moment, it's morning.

The sun is dazzling.

Before Zhao Huaizhong arrived, the Qin army was already attacking the city. Hundreds of thousands of generals bravely sacrificed their lives to attack Linzi.

Huh!

Clang!

The Qin army was as powerful as thunder, shaking the sky. The fighting was noisy and swift as dense rain.

Every 10,000 Qin soldiers formed an array, forming the Qin Army's world-famous square array.

They pointed their weapons forward and moved their shields horizontally, like a mountain or a block, like a wall!

Four hundred thousand Qin troops, outside Linzi City, jointly mobilized their military skills, their essence turned into smoke, and even the clouds in the sky were dispersed by the evil spirit that was solidified.

At the top of the city, the Qi army was still actively resisting and resisting the Qin army's siege.

Buzz buzz!

The bowstring trembles, and the arrows are like locusts.

Dang Dang Dang!

An ancient bell hangs at the top of Qiren's city. On the other side of the city, there is a three-legged round tripod and a jade tiger.

These artifacts all stimulate power and emit the fluctuations of the immortal artifacts, which is the accumulation of the Qi people's eight hundred years of national destiny.

At this moment, these artifacts appeared at the top of the city at the same time, confronting the Qin Army's bronze men and the Qin Army's soldiers, indicating that the Qi people had no reservations.

In the entire battlefield where hundreds of thousands of people were fighting, surprisingly there were no fierce shouts of killing.

All the Qin troops seemed to be holding back their energy, waiting for the moment to break the city.

There is only the low drum of war, which has not stopped since the beginning of the war.

In the rear formation, the undefeated Qin general Wang Jian personally beat the Kui Niu drum to cheer up the three armies.

It is worth mentioning that after Siying peeled off a ray of Kui Niu soul from this Kui Niu drum, its power has not weakened, and has even increased.

The reason is that after Siying's Kui Niu grew in strength, it came back to feed the Kui Niu Drum.

The Kui Niu, whose eyes were still closed until now, used its blood and soul power to perform a second sacrifice on the Kui Niu Drum.

When the drum sounded, the shadow of a one-legged Kui ox appeared in mid-air.

It is clearer than ever before, its breath is unruly, and it rises and falls with the sound of drums.

There were ripples on the surface of the drum.

Every time Kui Niu jumps down, the ripples will carry the sound of the drum and spread in all directions, covering the battlefield!

Boom~boom!

The sound of the drums was extremely low.

When all the Qin troops heard the sound of drums, they seemed to enter a strange state and became extremely focused.

They forgot their fears, including life and death, and only had Linzi in front of them. Taking Linzi became the only thought for all the Qin troops.

Outside Linzi City, the trembling siege equipment, the sound of stones being thrown, the sharp sound of arrows tearing the air from their strings, the roar of weapons clashing, the pungent smell of blood, as well as the broken limbs and corpses, all together outline the entire scene.

The battlefield changes scene by scene.

High in the sky, the black bird and the unicorn took turns spitting fire, and joined forces to violently torture a big red bird whose body was covered in flames and had the blood of the phoenix bird.

This firebird is a strange beast that flew into Daqi from overseas after the seal of the ends of the earth was released. It was regarded as the sacred bird that protects the country by the people of Qi.

On the ground, two bronze figures, each holding a bronze siege pillar, were hitting the Linzi city gate and at the same time fighting against the immortal weapon hanging above the city head.

Under such circumstances, Zhao Huaizhong fell from the sky!

The Qin army's combat effectiveness soared instantly and reached its peak.

Regardless of the generals or soldiers, including the commander-in-chief of the three armies, Wei Liao, the general Wang Jian, the veteran general Lian Po, and Li Mu who had just entered Qin, they all shouted the name of the King of Qin with one voice!

The Qin army's fanatical will turned into a huge long sword in the sky on the battlefield, spanning the sky and hundreds of feet long.

That majestic figure who stands above everyone else, wearing a black robe and with long hair like ink, is like a god or demon in the world, and is the totem in the hearts of all Qin soldiers!

He just appeared on the battlefield and waved his hand to Linzi, and the 400,000 Qin troops waved together and followed him to point to Linzi.

"kill!"

Wang Jian gave up beating the Kui Niu drum, carried a long gun, ran in the air, and took the lead towards Linzi.

Kill! Kill kill kill!

The 400,000 Qin troops, numbering 10,000 in teams, and more than 40 totem black birds and black dragons formed by military formations in the sky, together launched the most powerful offensive against Linzi.

Boom boom boom!

Linzi city gate exploded.

————

In Linzi City, before Zhao Huaizhong arrived, the dispute in the palace was very fierce.

King Jian of Qi raised the Xiantai Pillar that night and clashed with the Dragon of Qin's National Destiny that Zhao Huaizhong had activated in the air. After that, he was severely injured and coughed up blood.

For two months, no medicine or stone could save him, and Qi Wangjian's condition continued to deteriorate, and his health continued to deteriorate.

The same goes for Tian Dan. That night he was struck by the fate of the Qin people.

The Dragon of Qin's fortune has been like a nightmare since then, appearing in Tian Dan's mind again and again, making his energy continue to weaken and become increasingly depressed.

King Jian of Qi and Tian Dan both fell ill.

This is the impact of the impact on the national destiny.

Both King Jian of Qi and Tian Dan were closely linked to the national destiny of the Qi people.

When the fate of the country and the Purple Dragon of Qin collided and were suppressed and impacted, the two of them were subsequently affected and found themselves in a terrible situation.

The Qin army came to the city, and after the victory, many Qi ministers gathered in the palace again.

There was a fierce dispute among the ministers because Hou Shengli advocated peace while others opposed it.

"I said at the beginning of the war that I wanted to negotiate for peace, but no one listened to me. What happens now?"

Hou Shengyi spoke righteously: "The Qin army has completed the encirclement. This is the last chance to negotiate peace. Do we have to wait for the city to be broken before surrendering? By then it will be too late."

Hou Sheng's sharp chin was raised, and his beard was raised up and down.

He had secretly reached a consensus with the secret agents of Qin Ye's Imperial Palace. As long as he could persuade the Qi people to surrender in Kaicheng, he would return to Qin victorious and still be a prominent figure, with no shortage of glory and wealth, and he could live out the rest of his life in peace.

In the dormitory not far away, Qi Wangjian was lying on the couch, his face pale and his breath lingering.

He also regretted that he should have chosen to negotiate peace if he had known this.
