As the sun set in the west, the mercenary groups in Nanyang County were quarreling fiercely. The remaining main forces of Nanyang County were defeated in one fell swoop, and the entire Nanyang County fell into the arms of the mercenary group.
Now the problem is the division of the territory. Everyone wants to get more land.
Beichen Yuqing led more than 300,000 elite troops to continue guarding the border to prevent any accidents.
At the same time, in Qi, the Emperor of Qi finally learned the news about Nanyang County and immediately said to Prime Minister He Zhiguo: "Nanyang County has been taken by those mercenary groups. You can now go to Guangling County and buy the remaining half of Guangling County. In this way, the Shang Kingdom will definitely have nothing to say."
"Yes, I will leave right away!" He Zhiguo came out of the palace and immediately set off with three million taels of gold in 'Jiaozi'. Since Anyang had a bank, surrounding countries also set up their own banks. However, because Anyang had occupied the word 'bank', other countries could only use other names.
There were many names such as money houses and gold shops. Among them, Qi State followed Anyang and built the "Qi State Royal Bank".
But just after He Zhiguo left, the Emperor of Qi received urgent news from the West—the first battle was lost!
"What's going on!" The Emperor of Qi was furious and asked the messenger.
The messenger was a small captain beside the Grand Commandant Li Hui. He spoke eloquently: "Your Majesty, the Huang Kingdom was well prepared. When we launched the attack, we found that the seemingly unprepared Huang Kingdom had already made preparations. On the border, all large-caliber artillery, all of which were above 105 mm. We were caught off guard and suffered a lot of losses. The commander-in-chief of the army, General Qiu Wenming, was almost hit directly by a shell."
The Qi Emperor's face turned grim: "In other words, we haven't broken through Huang's defense yet?!"
"Yes!" the team leader answered loudly.
"Bang!" The Qi emperor was furious, and slapped the jade table so hard that it almost collapsed. "Okay, before leaving, Li Hui told me that we would destroy the Huang Kingdom before sunset tomorrow. But we were beaten back as soon as we made contact! Someone, come!"
"Your Majesty." A guard came over.
"Go tell Li Hui that no matter what means are used, you must break through the Huang Kingdom's defenses for me tomorrow. Before sunset tomorrow, the main force's vanguard must advance to the Huang Kingdom's capital. I don't ask about reasons or means, I only ask about results!"
"Yes!" the guard responded and turned and left.
The Emperor of Qi looked at the soldier who delivered the letter and said, "You can go down too."
After the soldiers left, the Emperor of Qi looked at the map behind him and felt helpless, because this map also came from the print in Anyang.
Seeing the word "Anyang" on the map, the Qi emperor clenched his fingers, veins popped out, and gritted his teeth and squeezed out four words: "Anyang! Li Xian!"
The words were complicated, with anger, admiration, and a strange sense of relief at having met a worthy opponent. But then, everything turned into anger, boundless anger!
"Anyone who dares to stop me is an enemy! Li Xian, you too!!!"
It’s no wonder that the Emperor of Qi was so angry. For an emperor of a country, the best way to practice is... territorial expansion!
