The Jin Kingdom was strong, and all countries did not dare to provoke it easily.

But Xiao Yuan dared to fight, and so did King Liang.

Decide, like Xiao Yuan, there is no doubt about it.

After finalizing the alliance with Qin, King Liang had another conversation with Jiang Yi and told the latter that if there was to be war, the two countries should make an alliance to avoid accidents along the way.

In this regard, Jiang Yi naturally agreed.

The news was soon transmitted back to the Qin and Jin countries.

On the Qin side, Xiao Yuan had received a letter from the Liang Kingdom, inviting him to meet with Bai Ze, and the two kings held an alliance ceremony.

In this regard, Xiao Yuan naturally had nothing to say, so he immediately made an appointment with King Liang and began to prepare for the trip.

At the same time, the Jin Kingdom.

After learning that King Liang refused to withdraw his troops, King Jin was furious and took the case.

The jade beads on his crown trembled, and he said angrily: "King Liang is so ignorant! What does he want to do in the two kingdoms of Qin and Liang! Do you really think that with a weak place, you can really move me to Dajin!? ”

"This king, the Qin army and the Liang army, should not be underestimated." Jin Xiang said.

"The king did not underestimate them! Fight and fight! With one enemy and two enemies, I am not afraid of strong promotion! ”

After King Jin finished speaking, he also pointed at the prime minister of Jin and said sharply: "Immediately summon Ren Ying back to the capital!" The king wants to ask him how the war will be arranged! ”

"Nono."

Under his royal order, Ren Ying was urgently recalled to the capital, and then, in the court hall, he answered the question of the king of Jin.

This is a court discussion dedicated to war, there is not too much nonsense between them, after learning that Qin Liang wants to ally ally, Ren Ying said directly:

"Great King, now Guangling, Liangguo has not increased its troops, Puyang, Qin State is also the same, and once the two kings make an alliance, the front-line troops will inevitably increase greatly, therefore, Weichen suggests that domestic troops should be immediately dispatched to the two fronts, each with 100,000 troops, and arrange a favorable defensive line."

"How?" King Jin asked directly.

Ren Yingdao: "In terms of national strength, the two kingdoms of Qin and Liang are not as good as my Jin country, therefore, this war cannot be confronted head-on, it should be avoided from its edge, and the deep ditch and high base are rejected to fight a protracted war with the Qin army and the Liang army." ”

"In large-scale battles, the superiority of troops is not the key to victory, national strength is one of the key elements of the rear support war, Qin, even if the strength of the country cannot break through the barriers, then the king of Qin, at most, can only fight for one year, after a year, the Qin army will be defeated without a fight."

"In terms of the current national strength of the Liang Kingdom, the Liang King will also fight for a year and a half at most, and my Jin Kingdom can support this war for five years."

"Therefore, take my strengths and attack their shortcomings."

After listening to him, King Jin asked again: "Listen to what the general said, is it intended to defend the war?" ”

"You have to defend the battle." Ren Ying said directly.

"Okay." King Jin nodded, and asked again: "In the general's opinion, in this battle, the Jin State has a few percent chance of winning." ”

Ren Ying said: "If you stick to the barrier, the two fronts are defended with 200,000 heavy troops, and the two countries of Qin and Liang are refused to enter, then the battle will be fought to the end, the two countries will be dragged down, and the Jin State will win." ”

He was right, the national strength of the Jin State was enough to support an army of 400,000 to defend the war for several years, while the Qin State would fight for a year at most, and the money and food would not be enough.

When King Jin heard this, he couldn't help but be happy, got up and said, "Okay! Fight with me to fight for national strength! He Qin Liang and the two countries, can he fight it! ”

Ren Ying said again: "In this war, the two kings of Qin Liang will inevitably be eager to win, so they may take a fierce attack in the early stage, the king should be vigilant about this, and after our army has passed through March, it will be worry-free." ”

"Well said!" King Jin said again: "Then the general's battle is to stick to the Puyang defense line or the Guangling defense line." ”

Ren Ying thought for a while and said: "On the Puyang side, although Su Yi is treacherous with soldiers, Xue Wu is more difficult, his fighting style is fierce, and the Liang army is brave and good at fighting, and Weichen has been fighting against Xue Wu for many days and knows a lot about him, so it is more appropriate to defend Guangling." ”

"Okay, the general will continue to defend Guangling, don't let the Liang army go further, this king's side, may focus on the Qin army's side." King Jin Road.

In this regard, Ren Ying did not have any opinions, and said directly: "The king is extremely considerate, the Qin army is really a big harm, and Puyang cannot be lost again." ”

"Yes." King Jin nodded, with Ren Ying's words, he undoubtedly increased his confidence: "Guan Jie is cautious in his life, and it is no more suitable for him to defend the battle, this king will immediately give him a royal order, no matter how provocative the Qin army is, he will not be able to hold out in this battle." ”

"I'm Wang Yingming." Ren Ying bowed his hand, and then said: "Now, the war in Guangling is not over, and it is inconvenient for Weichen to stay in the capital for a long time, and I hope that my king will forgive me." ”

"Then you go back quickly."

"No!"

On the Jin King's side, it is undoubtedly the wisest choice to adopt the method of Ren Ying to defend the war.

And a few days later, the news that the two kings of Qin Liang were about to make an alliance with Bai Ze also spread to the Jin capital from Xizuo.

After hearing about this, in the palace study, King Jin was obviously not in a good mood, so he couldn't help but say:

"Humph! Didn't King Qin frame this king for assassination before! Then this time, this king will come with him for real! In Bai Ze, send dead soldiers to kill the two kings of Qin Liang! ”

Jin Xiang is here, after hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Oh king, you can't be like this, then they are all the kings of a country, how can they succeed with assassins alone, on the contrary, if this happens, my Jin Kingdom will increase the laughing stock." ”

"Humph! This king is just talking! Sangkook doesn't have to be nervous. "King Jin doesn't have a good temperament, he was obviously angry just now.

"Yes, yes," Jin Xiang hurriedly responded.

Bai Ze, the land of the kings' alliance.

At this time, according to the agreed time, Xiao Yuan and King Liang had already arrived at the place.

In the field, a high platform has already been built, there is a bronze tripod, and there is coarse incense.

Under the steps, the Qin army and the Liang army were divided into two phalanxes, which were divided into two sides, leaving a spacious avenue in the middle.

The soldiers on both sides are all straight at the waist, and there are many long halberds in their hands, and the scene is extremely spectacular.

Not long after, the monarchs of the two countries appeared, all wearing royal robes, wearing crowns, nine strings of jade beads on their foreheads, and behind them, they were also followed by their respective important ministers.

The two kings are side by side, and after meeting, it is natural to have some greetings.

"Brother Qin, don't come unharmed." King Liang smiled and arched his hand.

"I haven't seen you for many days, but Brother Liangwang's demeanor is still the same." Xiao Yuan also smiled heartily and returned the salute.

"Where, Brother Qin Wang said with a smile, please."

"Please."

The two kings stretched out their hands at the same time, and then walked side by side towards the steps.

At this time, Shangguan Wenruo, who was behind Xiao Yuan, also began to whisper to Cai Yan, the minister of Liangguo.

The two civil officials stood together, their expressions a little eager.

"Now Qin Liang has made an alliance, who is the leader of the alliance?"

"Naturally, it's my king's bull's ear."

"How is this possible, to be my king"
