With good strategy, there is no need to storm and waste the lives of soldiers here.

Qi Xiaobai gave an order, and Mingjin withdrew his troops.

Zhang Haicheng was relieved to see that the Qi army began to retreat, he was really afraid that the Qi army had been attacking Jincheng for a long time, although Jincheng had a standing army of Yan State, but the militia accounted for the majority.

If he continues to fight, this Jincheng is likely to become an empty city, and he Zhang Haicheng may become a sinner in Jincheng.

Now Zhang Haicheng only hopes that under such continuous attrition, the logistics of Qi State will have a problem, and the Qi army will have to retreat.

But this can only be said to be Zhang Haicheng's whimsy, and perhaps Zhang Haicheng also feels that this is unrealistic.

Qi Xiaobai pursued the policy of feeding the war with war, although the Qi State had a lot of money, but before sending troops, he gave the Chu State 30 million taels, and raised troops to enter the Yan State, which was a very huge consumption.

If there is a protracted war in Yan State, then Qi State will not be able to bear it, so Qi Xiaobai pursues the practice of fighting to nourish the war, and carries out a forced conscription order in the cities captured by Yan State.

The so-called forced expropriation order is to forcibly expropriate the strong men, and forcibly expropriate the food and money of the Yan people, of course, Qi Xiaobai will leave them with their own food.

After all, if they are all taken away, they may be reversed, and the back of this Qi army will be unstable.

However, the policy of using war to feed the war has enriched the treasury of the Qi army, which is about to be empty, but of course it has not been enriched much.

And Qi Xiaobai asked Sun Wu to attack all the cities in southern Hebei, in fact, it was also for this policy, only if the more cities were won, the money would follow.

After Qi Xiaobai collected his troops, he began to hold banquets in the camp......

This made Zhang Haicheng a little confused when he found out, in this special period of war, this Qi Xiaobai was still in the mood to have a banquet.

Although Qi Xiaobai held a banquet and was so relaxed, he Zhang Haicheng did not dare to send troops to meet him, he was afraid of deception, and he would never come back after sending troops.

In fact, Qi Xiaobai is not afraid of this Zhang Haicheng's sneak attack, if Zhang Haicheng really dares to sneak attack, Qi Xiaobai is still happy, after all, his samurai army has been tested, and the field battle is first-class.

And Jing Ke and Yan Dan, who had already arrived in Yanshan, began to worry about money.

The money they levied was no longer enough for them to feed such a large army......

Qi Xiaobai implemented the forced conscription order, and he and Yan Dan also learned the forced conscription order, but his forced conscription order did not work very well, and it would attract some resistance from time to time.

"If we continue to fight like this, we will be self-defeating!" Yan Dan looked at Jing Ke and said.

"Now the only way out is to fence off all the Yanmin's fields, and we can grow them ourselves, at least we have to keep enough food!" Jing Ke said to Yan Dan.

Now the army led by Yan Dan is not only facing a lack of money, but also a shortage of food, after all, they forcibly recruited a lot of strong men to fight a decisive battle with Qi Xiaobai, and brought in a lot of strong men, so there is no one to plant this field......

And Qi Xiaobai implemented the forced conscription order because he was not afraid of the waste of the fertile land in Yandi, after all, he still had the grain stored by the Qi State.

The grain stored by this Qi State is enough to have a full-scale war with the Yan State.

But Yan Dan is different, they didn't store grain, their initial strategy was to fight quickly, and they didn't expect it to become such a protracted war.

Of course, there is grain in Yanguo, and any country will store grain in case of emergency, but where is the grain in Yanjing, Yanguo, and where is it in northern Hebei, and there is also some grain in southern Hebei, but where is it stored in Linyi......

Of these three granaries of Yan Kingdom, none of his Yan Dan now occupies any of them......

"That's all there is to it now!" Yan Dan sighed and said.

If you don't have the money to pay your salary, you can slowly pay it, but if you don't have food to eat, that's not good, after all, the army is hungry and goes to the battlefield, and the combat effectiveness can be imagined how bad it is.

Yan Dan and Jing Ke said yes, and they ordered that all the land of the Yan people in the area under their control be forcibly expropriated, so that the army could farm and ensure their own food.

When Jing Ke and Yan Dan were struggling for money and food, Qi Xiaobai let the soldiers eat and drink.

In the next few days, Qi Xiaobai will not go to attack the city, and he has already ordered someone to contact the Qi Navy to come to support Gongfajin City.

In the days of waiting for the navy, Qi Xiaobai asked the soldiers to keep their combat readiness at all times and eat and drink appropriately.

This kind of day waited until the eighth day, Qi Xiaobai came to Jincheng in a chariot again, Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian next to him and helped me pass the word.

"My Duke Huan has the virtue of a good life, if the county guard of Jincheng is willing to surrender in Kaicheng, my Duke Huan will still let you be the county guard of Jincheng, if you don't know the current affairs, my Duke Huan will only storm Jincheng, and kill all the officials of Jincheng at the moment when the city is broken!" Wei Dexian shouted at the city tower.

Zhang Haicheng sighed helplessly, and then looked at Qi Xiaobai under the city: "As a Yan Chen, how can I let you Qi dogs enter my Yan City?" ”

If he could surrender, he Zhang Haicheng would not hesitate to surrender, after all, his family was in the hands of Jing Ke.

Zhang Haicheng also knew that under the siege of the Qi army, he was isolated and helpless, and he Zhang Haicheng was unable to hold Jincheng at all, after all, Yanjing in the rear could stab him at any time.

In fact, Qi Yan also wanted to support Qi Xiaobai to fight Jincheng, after all, Jincheng bordered Yanjing, but under the persuasion of Gongsun Cao, Qi Yan had to give up the idea of supporting Qi Xiaobai.

Although Yanjing is close to Jincheng, it is also close to Yanshan, if Jing Ke suddenly launches a sneak attack in the case of supporting Qi Xiaobai, this Yanjing will not be guaranteed......

Compared with supporting the Qi army to attack Jincheng, his grandson Caojue's support for Qi Xiaobai and Yan Dan was better.

Qi Xiaobai nodded, and then the military flag waved, and the Qi army launched an attack again.

"Archer prepare!"

The soldiers all drew their longbows!

"Ignition!"

Then the soldiers in the back stepped forward to light the arrows!

"Shoot the arrows!"

Hundreds of thousands of flaming arrows flew towards Tsu Castle!

"Defend Jincheng for me, this is your home, and you don't want Jincheng to be trampled on by this group of Qi people, right?" Zhang Haicheng shouted.

The fierce battle was in the evening.

Qi Xiaobai looked at Tian Dan on the side: "This navy, are you ready?" ”

"Return, Duke Huan, the navy can enter Jincheng at any time!" Tian Dan said to Qi Xiaobai.

"Then let the navy enter the battlefield!" After Qi Xiaobai finished speaking, a signal flare flew up in the sky.

Twenty huge warships appeared in the eastern part of Tsujo......

There were no guards in the eastern part of Jincheng, and they all went to the south to defend the Qi army, and no one would have thought that the Qi army would choose to enter Jincheng from the sea.

There were 1,000 people on each huge warship, and a total of 20,000 people entered Jincheng without resistance.
