When Tian Wen heard this, his whole body stiffened.

Then his heart was filled with resentment.

He is a relative of the Qi State, and he is a famous sage all over the world, and he has never betrayed the Qi State. Even if he had an unpleasant quarrel with King Qi before, even if he was expelled by King Qi before, even if King Qi had ordered Xue Di to be recovered before.

But he did not betray the State of Qi, and even when the State of Qi and the State of Qin fell into a disadvantage, when the King of Qi did not speak, he took the initiative to help and obtained the State of Wei for the State of Qi.

As a result, such a great credit not only did not allow him to be rewarded by the King of Qi, but was also hit by the King of Qi.

Before the war began, although he already knew that the King of Qi was going to kill him completely, in the face of the pull of the Chu State, he still had hope for the King of Qi, hoping that the King of Qi would wake up and everyone would be reconciled as before.

For this reason, in the past few months, he has been sending people to Linzi to lobby, one pleaded guilty to express remorse, expressed his willingness to pay back taxes, and accepted punishment, and the other hoped that the king of Qi could see that he was also a relative of the Qi country, and that he had contributed to the Qi country, hoping that the king of Qi would let him go.

However, now Xue Di's wealth is about to be exhausted, but the king of Qi has been unmoved, as if he wants to put him to death.

Thinking about it, Tian Wen hated it in his heart.

Even, at this time, he secretly pondered the Chu Xiang Golden Seal in his sleeve, and an idea suddenly popped up in his heart.

If I dedicate Xue Di to Chu now and lead the Chu army into Qi...

Thinking about it, Tian Wen shook his head suddenly.

After a pause, Tian Wen said: "Order, immediately send someone to Linzi with heavy treasures to persuade King Qi to collect his troops." ”

When Gongsun Hong heard this, he looked at Tian Wen and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, if you are sending someone to Linzi to give gifts, then Xue Cheng is here..."

Tian Wenying said: "It's okay, you can send people to exhaust the treasures in the house, and then sell them to various countries to raise money." Moreover, Benjun has served as prime minister in Qi and Wei for many years, and has industries in all parts of Qi and Wei..."

Saying that, Tian Wen pondered for a long time, and then said with a sad face: "Sell, sell those properties to raise money." ”

When Gongsun Hong heard this, he was shocked and said: "Your Majesty, those industries are an important channel for us to contact the nobles of Qi and Wei, if it is..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Tian Wen raising his hand.

"Needless to say, Xue Cheng is my foundation, and I can't afford to lose it."

"No."

"Also, in order to gain time, starting tomorrow, the money that will be given to the warriors will be given half a piece of gold, and the remaining half gold will be replaced with grain, rice, and cloth."

"No."

Gongsun Hong opened his mouth, and then showed a sadness: "Yes, your lord..."

Next.

When the warriors and people in Xue City heard that after killing the Qi army next, they would only be rewarded with half a gold reward, and the remaining half gold would be replaced with other items, and the entire Xue City was in an uproar.

Everyone realized that Meng Weijun had no money.

As soon as he thought of this, Xue Cheng's morale plummeted again.

On the other side, in a small city dozens of miles away from Xue City, after Huang Xie got Tian Wen to start selling the property under his name, he said with a heavy face: "The reason why Tian Wen is famous all over the world is not only because his disciples and friends advocate for him everywhere, but also because of his industry in Qi and Wei, and he can contact nobles from all over the world to advocate for him.

And what my Chu State values the most, in addition to Tian Wen's own fame and connections, the rest is only his industry.

Therefore, Tian Wen's industries can't be sold like this! ”

After that, Huang Xie immediately summoned a spy and ordered: "Let our people take action and help the Qi army conquer Xue City." ”

After giving the order, Huang Xie immediately walked out, and then went straight to Huaiyin City of Chu State.

Three days later.

Tian Wen was encouraging the soldiers to fight at the head of the wall, when suddenly, he heard a shout of killing from the city.

"What's going on, what's going on?" Tian Wen looked back at the city in shock, and then walked quickly towards the inner city.

As soon as Tian Wen arrived at the edge of the inner city of the city, he immediately saw that there were fires everywhere in the city, and there were shouts of killing everywhere.

In the midst of his panic, a doorman ran quickly.

"Report, Your Majesty, there is a group of disciples who are dissatisfied with the halving of the king's reward, and they are inciting the people to make rebellion, setting fire to the city while attacking the city gates, intending to welcome the Qi army into the city."

"What? Rebellious ministers and thieves, be killed! When Tian Wen heard this, he said angrily: "Quick, immediately send troops to exterminate the rebels in the city." ”

"No."

At this time, the soldiers of Xue Cheng, who were fighting with the Qi army on the city wall, heard a burst of shouts and killings from the city, as if someone was in trouble in the city, and it seemed that the Qi army had entered the city from other places.

For a time, Xue Cheng's morale plummeted, and almost everyone from the soldiers to the common people was in danger.

Tian Wen was sending someone to quell the chaos, and another doorman came running quickly.

"Report, your lord, the Qi army suddenly launched an extremely fierce offensive, our army was defeated, and the city walls were lost one after another, please send reinforcements as soon as possible."

"What?" Tian Wen panicked in his heart, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly ordered: "Quick, quickly transfer the reinforcements in the city to the city wall." ”

"Report, Your Majesty, just now a group of doormen led a group of people to capture the north gate, and then opened the north gate to welcome the Qi army into the city."

When Tian Wen heard this, his face suddenly turned bloodless, and he was speechless.

"Your Majesty, what should I do?"

"This..."

"Report, your lord, it's not good, just now the people in the city rebelled, and the Qi army took the opportunity to capture a large section of the city wall in the south, please send reinforcements as soon as possible."

When Tian Wen heard this, his eyes turned black and he almost fainted.

At this time, Gongsun Hong walked quickly to Tian Wen's side and said hurriedly: "Your Excellency, Xue Cheng has been lost, you should leave quickly, otherwise, your lord will be captured by the tentacles." ”

When Tian Wen heard this, he immediately settled down, and then looked at the huge city under his feet with deep affection.

At the beginning, when he took over the city from his father, Xue Cheng was still an ordinary big city with ten thousand households.

It was his hard work for more than 20 years that made Xuecheng develop into a huge city with 60,000 people, second only to Linzi City.

This is not only his life's work, but also the pride of his life, and a symbol of his name in history.

Now the city is gone, and it no longer belongs to him.

Thinking about it, Tian Wen cried with tears in his eyes: "This is the fief that King Wei gave to my father, this is the fief I inherited from my father, and this is the fief that I developed single-handedly, why did the tyrant send troops to attack me...

I'm not guilty... I'm not guilty...

Tyrant... Tyrant..."

At this time, the surrounding doormen looked at Tian Wen's sad face, listened to Tian Wen's angry shouts, and all cried.

Xue Cheng's growth to this extent is not only the hard work of Meng Weijun Tianwen, but also their hard work.

It was they who did everything possible to preach for Meng Weijun, and then the people of all countries in the world, rangers, thieves, wanted criminals, etc., gathered in Xue City.

This is the scale of 60,000 households in Xuecheng today.

Now, Xue Cheng is finished!

Just when everyone was crying, Gongsun Hong spoke again: "Your Majesty, the Qi army has arrived, leave quickly." ”

When Tian Wen heard this, he beat a spirit, and then turned his head to see that a large number of Qi troops had climbed to the top of the city.

Seeing this, Tian Wen was reluctant and said angrily: "Go, go out of the city, let people who are willing to follow and go out of the city through the west gate." ”

After saying that, Tian Wen held back tears and turned his head towards the west gate.

Not long after, Tian Wen took dozens of guests and more than 100 guards out of the West Gate, walked more than ten miles to the west, and then stopped.

At this time, Tian Wen looked at the people who were still following him, there were less than two hundred people left, and even his guards were added.

You must know that when he was Qi Xiang Wei Xiang, there were thousands of diners under his door alone, and now, the people around him are not even a fraction of what they used to be.

Seeing this, Tian Wen's heart was even more desolate.

Gongsun Hong immediately asked, "Your Majesty, why don't you leave?" ”

Hearing this, Tian Wen turned his body, then looked at Xue Cheng behind him, and muttered, "Xue Cheng..."

When everyone heard this, they all bowed their heads silently.

Tian Wen bit his lip and stared at Xue Cheng, his eyes gradually turned red, and he didn't even realize that he had already bitten his lip.

Suddenly, Tian Wen raised his hand suddenly, then bit his finger with all his strength, and swore with great hatred: "Tyrant Tian, take away my Xue City, break my foundation, this hatred is big, this hatred is long, if you don't take revenge, you will not be a man."

Xue Cheng, one day, I will come back. ”
