Outside Daliang City, inside the Qin Army camp.
"General, all the ditch mouths have been filled several times and will definitely not be washed away by the water."
Feng Nian, Huai and Gui came to the camp and reported to Bai Yan.
At this moment, more than half a month has passed since Bai Yan talked with King Wei's clan. During this period, both the corpse family and people from King Wei's clan often informed him about the situation in the city.
Nowadays, there is a serious shortage of food in the city. Both the gentry and the people of Wei are complaining. They are increasingly dissatisfied with King Wei's leave. It will be some time before all the gentry and ministers in the city can return to Wei. Under the leadership of Wang Zongqin, they pretended to force the palace from King Wei.
After all, King Wei is the legitimate king of Wei. This is not like later generations. Now he is forcing King Ji to make a mistake, and he will be reviled by future generations. After all, this time he is surrendering to Qin.
Adhering to public opinion and obeying the way of heaven are the legitimate excuses that all nobles need.
"Okay, guard the city gates carefully. If any Wei people leave the city, they will be sent to the camp next to Tanhu."
Bai Yan instructed the three of them.
Speaking of this, what surprised Bai Yan the most during this period was Lord Changping. In the past half month or so, Lord Changping seemed to have done nothing, nor did he continue to send his cronies into the city. He was peacefully in the Qin army camp, even They all seemed indifferent to his contact with the Wei gentry.
This made Bai Yan have to be somewhat vigilant. Bai Yan still didn't believe that Lord Changping really did nothing this time.
"General, the new soldiers in Xianyang, looking at the open Daliang City Gate, are all making a fuss and want to enter the city!"
Before she got pregnant, she held her hands in front of Bai Yan and reported it.
"Order someone to pass on the order. It is strictly forbidden for anyone to enter the city without permission. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
Bai Yan heard Huai's words and ordered without hesitation. Now that the water has receded, the gate of Daliang is open again. In addition, the Wei soldiers in the city have no fighting power. Those new soldiers have never been on the battlefield. Now looking at Daliang, They all want to behead people.
Bai Yan has personally experienced the new recruits, who come step by step, so Bai Yan understands the desire to obtain the enemy general's head and completely change the fate of himself and his family.
But now that the nobles and clansmen of Wei have surrendered, if the Qin army enters the city and kills people at this time, not to mention forcing the Wei soldiers to die, all the Wei people will hate the Qin people to their bones in the future. In time, it will be a disaster.
"Post a notice and order all the captains to pass on the order. Anyone who makes a noise and enters the city will be killed immediately!"
Bai Yan thought that Lord Changping was a little worried and continued to give instructions.
"promise!"
Huai heard Bai Yan's words and accepted the order.
At this moment.
Outside the camp, hurried footsteps were heard, and then Yang Yan was seen hurriedly entering the camp.
Bai Yan was a little confused when he saw the hurried and panicked look on Yang Yan's face. Feng Nian, Gui, and Huai Ye were all curious, but the three of them still saluted Yang Yan quickly.
Yang Yan was no stranger to Feng Nian and the others. After nodding, he handed a roll of bamboo slips to Bai Yan.
"Pengcheng, Taoyi, Qi State, and even General Ben, the king of Jiaocheng, have received news. It is said that someone has discovered Jiuding in Surabaya. Chu and Qi have already taken action. It seems that they have sent spies and others. The soldiers quietly went to investigate."
Yang Yan looked at Bai Yan and felt his heart beating fast. That was Jiuding, but he didn't know whether the news was true or false. If it was true, it would be too important to the Qin State.
"Jiuding!"
"Is there really a Jiuding?"
When Gui and Huai heard Jiuding, they looked at each other in surprise, then looked at Yang Yan and Bai Yan.
The Jiuding had no meaning to the two of them. In their eyes, it was just a cauldron. The only difference was that many princes and kings wanted to get it from the Zhou royal family.
"You go down first and follow the orders!"
Bai Yan looked at Gui, Huai and Fengnian and said.
"promise!"
When the three of them heard this, they quickly retreated, leaving only Yang Yan and Bai Yan in the tent.
Yang Yan was actually a little surprised when he saw Bai Yan letting Feng Nian and others leave.
"Does the general suspect that this news is false? But now Daliang is preparing to leave the city and surrender to Qin. At this time, Chu and Qi will not be able to save Wei if they find out this news!"
Yang Yan looked at Bai Yan and asked.
In fact, Yang Yan also doubted the authenticity of the news at first, but no matter how Yang Yan analyzed it, it didn't feel like it was fake.
"Jiuding!"
Bai Yan put down the bamboo slips, stood up slowly, then came to the map and looked at it.
"It can't save Wei State, but it can help me leave Daliang!"
Bai Yan sighed.
Only then did Bai Yan finally understand why Mr. Changping had been so quiet during this period of time and had not seen any movement. It turned out that he had already thought about how to lure him away.
"Leave Daliang? The general means Lord Changping!"
After Yang Yan heard Bai Yan's words, he looked thoughtful for a long time, and then he remembered that once Bai Yan left, all affairs in Daliang would be handed over to Lord Changping.
But Yang Yan couldn't figure it out.
"But the general is a matter for the Qi people. Lord Changping must have known about it. Why did Lord Changping secretly plan to frame the general?"
Yang Yan looked at Bai Yan curiously. As for the previous incident between Changping Lord and the Bai family, Yang Yan had already learned from his father. Mi Jing also verified that Bai Yan's words were true, so Yang Yan also understood that because Bai Qihuoshao Regarding the matter of King Chu's mausoleum, Lord Changping wanted to get rid of the Bai family.

But now, it is impossible for Lord Changping not to know that Bai Yan is actually from Qi.
In this case, why did Changping Lord secretly set someone up to frame Bai Yan.
Thinking about it, Yang Yan suddenly remembered that when he asked about the soldiers and horses in central Guizhou, Bai Yan had told him about the attack on Chu at night. At this time, thinking of Lord Changping's actions, Yang Yan suddenly had a bad idea. The thought, this thought made Yang Yan completely unbelievable.
“I must go to Surabaya this time!”
Bai Yan spoke at this time, looking at the map.
Yang Yan came back to his senses and saw Bai Yan turning around and looking at him.
"The camp is in your hands. Remember, no matter how Lord Changping acts in Daliang City, there must be no mistakes in the Qin Army's camp! I will not go to Surabaya for long."
Bai Yan instructed.
Bai Yan never thought that what happened in Luoyin in the past would force him to leave Daliang according to Chang Pingjun's wish.
Fortunately, he had thought before that the enemy of his enemy was his helper, and had written to find the Zhang family. According to the enmity between the Zhang family and Lord Changping, he had to put all other things behind him and look at the riots of the orphans of the Six Kingdoms in later generations. On the surface, they would deal with Qin together. The two countries are secretly fighting each other. From this, it can be seen that the orphans of the six countries are still the six countries. In the face of enough hatred, no reason is enough.
What's more, Lord Changping is still the prime minister of Qin. When he was in Yingchuan, he was King An of Han who was killed by Lord Changping.
"promise!"
Yang Yan nodded, thinking that Bai Yan's trip to Surabaya was all Changping Jun's plan. Before Yang Yan could say anything again, there was movement outside.
Seeing this, neither Yang Yan nor Bai Yan stopped talking to each other.
A few breaths later, Lord Changping, who was nearly fifty years old, appeared in their eyes.
"General Bai Yan! I didn't expect General Yang Yan to be here."
Lord Changping was wearing the official uniform of the Qin State. After entering the tent, he bowed his hands to Bai Yan and Yang Yan. Seeing Yang Yan there, Lord Changping was indeed a little surprised.
"I've met Mr. Changping!"
Yang Yan bowed his hand in return to Lord Changping, perhaps because the thought just now came to his mind. When he saw Lord Changping again, with his head lowered, Yang Yan's Adam's apple couldn't help but move.
"Mr. Changping! General Yang Yan came here because he heard that someone had seen Jiuding in Surabaya. Now both Chu and Qi have sent people to Surabaya to look for the tripod!"
After Bai Yan returned the courtesy to Lord Changping, he explained to Lord Changping. While talking, he walked to the wooden table, picked up the bamboo slips on the wooden table and handed it to Lord Changping.
Such behavior made Changping Jun feel that Bai Yan trusted him very much and had no reservations about him.
"oh?"
Lord Changping pretended to be a little surprised, took the bamboo slips with both hands, opened them and looked at them. After a long time, he put away the bamboo slips and handed the bamboo slips he brought to Bai Yan.
"To be honest, General Bai Yan, I came to see General Bai Yan for this reason!"
Changping Jun said to Bai Yan, looking at Bai Yan: "Jiuding news has appeared, it is difficult to guarantee whether it is true or not!"
At this point, Chang Pingjun frowned, his face full of tangles and doubts.
"Not to mention Pengcheng..."
Before Lord Changping could finish his words, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the camp. A soldier came into the camp and knelt down in front of Bai Yan.
"Report to the general, all the Wei officials in Daliang City have left the city and surrendered to Qin!"
said the soldier.
After hearing what the soldier said, Bai Yan, Yang Yan, and even Lord Changping all looked at the soldier with surprised expressions.
"so fast……"
As Bai Yan said this, Shanhua turned his head and looked at Lord Changping.
"Changping Lord, since the King of Wei has surrendered, after Bai Yan accepts the surrender of the King of Wei, no matter whether Jiuding is true or false, Bai Yan will personally lead the troops to investigate. Regarding the affairs of Daliang, I can only trouble Lord Changping. !”
Bai Yan looked at Lord Changping, raised his hands and begged.
Lord Changping looked a little embarrassed when he heard this, but after thinking about it for a while, he nodded.
"Forget it, there is no need to worry about the Wei army in the city now. If General Bai Yan wants to go to Surabaya, he must lead the army. Before the Chu soldiers and horses have arrived in Pengcheng, he must arrive in Surabaya as soon as possible and deploy defenses in advance!"
Lord Changping returned the courtesy to Bai Yan.
Bai Yan nodded, looked at Lord Changping with his fox tail exposed, and then raised his hand, indicating that he would accept King Wei's surrender first.
Yang Yan has been standing nearby, watching Mr. Changping return the gift to Bai Yan and gesturing to go together.
To be honest, if he had not known what Changping Lord had done back then, and if he had had a vague premonition that Changping Lord seemed to have an agenda, Yang Yan would have been deceived by Changping Lord's appearance, and would never have had the slightest doubt about Changping Lord.
Daliang City.
Under the city gate, as the turbid river water of the past faded away, on the muddy ground, all the civil and military officials of the Wei State, dressed in official uniforms, walked out of Daliang City and came to the plain outside the city, facing the vast Qin State in the distance. The army stopped and knelt on the ground.
Led by a group of elderly clan members from the Wei royal family, Wei Gaoyi and others also followed behind. After joining the civil and military officials, they slowly knelt down on the muddy ground.
Surprisingly, Wei Jia's figure did not appear, and at a glance, the clan members of the Wei Kingdom were all covered in white silk.
