At this time at sea.

Zhou Baotong looked at Uesugi Ten's mother, and before he conquered Anton, he asked Uesugi Ten's mother, Michiko, to follow.

And Liu Xing on the side said: "General, I suggest you give this woman to Duke Huan!" ”

Zhou Baotong looked at Liu Xing and asked, "Why?" ”

"You have been fighting Dongyi Island for so long, but you haven't given Huan Gong a trace of specialty, what do you think Huan Gong thinks? You will feel that you are far away from the emperor, and you may not listen to him......" Liu Xing said to Zhou Baotong.

Zhou Baotong listened to Liu Xing's words, and immediately fell silent, and Liu Xing continued: "If a general wants to be promoted, he must be loved and appreciated by Duke Huan, is the general willing to be a lieutenant general?" ”

Zhou Baotong looked at Liu Xing and said, "Of course I am not reconciled!" ”

Zhou Baotong actually thought about the position of general, but he lived in the navy and has not been able to make great contributions, and the promotion to general is basically a dream.

Although he made a great contribution in the battle of Jincheng, that credit has not yet reached the point where he can be promoted to general.

People go to high places, water flows to low places, of course Zhou Baotong also wants to go to the top and become the highest-ranking general 'General'

He is a lieutenant general and a general is only one step away, although it is a step away, but in the history of the empire, there are many lieutenant generals who have not taken a single step and stopped at the lieutenant general.

But those generals have all tried, they have all tried to compete for the general, and he, Zhou Baotong, also wants to try, try.

He looked at Liu Xing, hoping that Liu Xing would give him ideas, Liu Xing said to Zhou Baotong: "You have just made meritorious service and you can't do it, what you need is to be loved by Duke Huan, only if you get the love of Duke Huan, you can be promoted."

"How do you get the love of Duke Huan?" Zhou Baotong looked at Liu Xing and asked.

"Duke Huan also eats sex, loves beauties, Duke Huan is in a public position, there is definitely no shortage of imperial beauties, but there is ...... beauties of different races" Although Liu Xing did not say everything, he had already told Zhou Baotong the basics, so let's see if Zhou Baotong can comprehend.

If Zhou Baotong can't comprehend it, he Liu Xing can't do anything, he can only say that Zhou Baotong is a thief, and he can't do things according to his preferences at all, and he can't become a general.

In the officialdom of this Qi country, ability and relationships are important, but the most important thing is emotional intelligence.

You see Zhang Tianshang, the secretary of the Qi country, who was born in a wealthy family of non-scholars, but with his superb emotional intelligence, he can still sit in the position of the head of the civil service 'Shangqing' and one of the three prime ministers.

Zhou Baotong nodded after listening to Liu Xing's words: "I understand!" ”

He glanced at Uesugi Ten's mother, Michiko, and then calmed her down, he was going to wait for the battle to be over, and send Michiko to Qi Xiaobai......

In the evening, the battleship arrived at Anton's position, and the soldiers of the Qi State rushed down in an instant, slashing at the people......

And on the frontal battlefield, Date was still fighting with the Uesugi family, and because Date 's messenger was a quick horse, an urgent letter, and after the letter arrived at Anton, Anton immediately sent reinforcements, and at this time, Anton's reinforcements had just left Anton's border......

It's just that what they didn't expect was that as soon as their army left Anton, they were attacked by a large number of troops.

The coastal defense line was very weak, or there was no defense line, and after the Qi army entered, it only took three hours to defeat the Anton family, and enter Akita Castle, which was under the jurisdiction of the Anton family.

After Zhou Baotong took Akita Castle, he began to integrate Anton's resources and prepare to go south to attack the Vaspo family's 'southern Dewa and central Michinoku'

Zhou Baotong took Anton, and they ruled the northern part of Dewa and the northern part of Mutsu.

The whole piece of Dewa is equivalent to three castles in Qi Province, and Mutsu is equivalent to five castles in Qi Province.

This is mainly due to the fact that the area of Dewa and Mutsu is relatively large, although the area is large, but the population is sparse, and it is a remote area in the Dongyi Island Country, a barbarian area.

The entire Anton family had only 5,000 soldiers and militia, and 2,000 were sent out to support Date......

Three thousand people couldn't fight with Zhou Baotong's Qi army at all, it was completely crushed, and when Anton was destroyed, his two thousand came back to the rescue, and they were soon wiped out by Zhou Baotong.

After a day of fierce fighting, the Uesugi family and the Date family retreated and began to defend, while the combined forces of the Date family and the Spo family began to march into Echigo......

Because the Uesugi family fought with the Qi army once, the damage was very large, and they were still quite under pressure in the face of the Date family and the Spo family, and they were basically beaten passively......

But this was Zhou Baotong's order, and they didn't dare to resist, so they could only ask for help from Hetian Dongyi to support him......

When Zhou Baotong went to the navy to attack Anton, he asked Wada Toichi to defend again and help the Uesugi family fight against the Spo family and the Date family.

However, Wada Toichi asked him to go to battle first, and he had 3,000 Qi troops, of which 1,000 were prisoners of war from Dongyi and Sado Island......

"General Toichi, you should quickly send the Qi army to attack, otherwise we will be in danger......" Uesugi said as he looked at Toichi Wada.

Wada Toichi snorted coldly: "With this ability, I really don't know how your Uesugi family is dominant in the north!" ”

When Uesugi and Uesugi Kiyoshi heard Wada Toichi's words, they were very angry, but they didn't dare to say it.

It depends on the owner to beat the dog, although they are not happy with Hetian Dongyi, but it is Zhou Baotong's pet dog after all......

They muttered in their hearts, if it weren't for the Qi army defeating our main army, what would the Spo family and the Date family be like that?

Of course, they don't dare to say this kind of thing, otherwise Hetian Dong will ask them, is it wrong for the Qi army to defeat your main force?

If there is a mistake, then they will suffer......

Of course, Hetian Dongyi also knew that once Yuecheng was lost, he would not be able to escape the blame, and when Zhou Baotong came back, I am afraid that his fate would not be much better.

So he commanded the remaining troops to resist......

Seeing that another army of the Uesugi family came, the combined forces of the Spo family and the Date family thought there was a trap and hurriedly retreated.

Wada Toichi took advantage of the situation to advance, and the twins returned to the starting point separately.

And in the South......

Wang Yi is not as easy as Zhou Baotong, after all, the number of the Southern Emperor's coalition army has reached 10,000 people, and with the follow-up of some small and big names, Wang Yi can be said to have fallen into a vicious battle.

However, fortunately, the fortifications were stationed, and although they had experienced a day of fierce fighting, the defense line was not lost.

Wang Yitong commanded the elite soldiers of the Xuzhou Legion, and his weapons and equipment were much better than Zhou Baotong.

Although it was a fierce battle, there were not many losses, after all, where are the weapons and equipment......

Although the Xuzhou Legion was the weakest legion in the Qi Legion, it was more than enough to deal with a small barbarian like Dongyi Island......

Compared with the Central Plains countries, Qi is a barbarian and uncivilized land, but compared with the Dongyi Island country, this Dongyi Island country is a barbarian and uncivilized land......
