Chapter 720: Battle End
This time, the five countries united and jointly expelled the Qin merchants, and the matter had already caused a lot of uproar.
Not only are scholars discussing this matter, but also the people of the world are talking about it after dinner.
The same is true on the side of the Qin State, the government and the opposition have already been shaken.
Just when everyone in the world thought that the Qin State was going to be finished, and I was afraid that it would cede the land and lose the silver, the King of Qin adopted the opinion of the main battle faction, and took the lead in sending troops to attack the Wu State before the Five Kingdoms held an alliance!
At the beginning of March, 100,000 Qin troops descended the river and landed on the border of Wu with infantry troops, directly starting the first battle!
On the other side, Bai Ze.
The nations are also about to make alliances.
In the hall, Wu, Chu, Huan, Ling, two of the four kings sat opposite each other, with a case in front of them, and there was no one on the main seat directly above.
In this, King Ling is the oldest, King Huan is slightly fat, a little fat, and a pair of small eyes are spinning from time to time.
King Wu is relatively thin, in his thirties, with a pinch of mustache, and the whole look gives people a very shrewd feeling.
The king of Chu has a kind of non-anger and self-authority, and he is also in his thirties, and the beard on his chin is very well groomed.
Behind the four kings, they were followed by their respective escorts and advisors.
When the wine and food were served, the King of Chu took the lead in snorting coldly, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied: "What does she mean by announcing the queen!" The five countries that said that they were united and weakened Qin together to destroy Qin, and when this alliance was made, they pushed back and hindered it, saying that they would not come to illness. ”
"Huh." King Ling smiled and said, "Can't you see this, King Xuan is thinking carefully, I want to see if there is a result of the nation's attack on Qin!" ”
said, and said: "This king dares to guarantee that if I wait for the attack on Qin to make progress, she will declare that the king will join the alliance immediately, and take the opportunity to pick up the cheap, if there is no progress, she will also choose to watch from the wall." ”
There is really nothing wrong with King Ling's idea of this, because King Xuan's current performance is like this, he looks like he wants to destroy Qin and divide the benefits, but he doesn't want to contribute.
King Wu also sneered: "She wants to be beautiful!" When the time comes, there will be progress in attacking Qin, who will allow her to join the alliance! Let's have fun! ”
"Huh? You can't say that. King Ling smiled and said: "After all, the national strength of Xuanguo and the military strength cannot be underestimated, and with King Xuan's support, the attack on Qin will be smoother." ”
The king of Chu received: "This is indeed true, the attack on Qin is very important, and now it is definitely impossible to offend Xuanguo easily." ”
Having said that, King Wu couldn't help but snort coldly, expressing his dissatisfaction.
King Huan smiled, picked up the wine glass and said, "Everyone, all the wine and food are ready, let's have a drink first?" ”
Huan State can now be said to be the weakest vassal state, with less than 150,000 troops, the treasury is empty, and it cannot make ends meet.
But there are only six countries in the world, and if you want to destroy Qin, you have to pull all the five countries outside together, so the other three kings didn't look down on him, but all raised their wine glasses.
"Come, everyone drink together, and I wish us and others to exterminate the tyrannical Qin."
"Drink together!"
The four kings took their cups one after another, covered their mouths with their sleeves, and raised their heads to drink the wine in the cups.
However, a glass of wine had just been eaten, and before everyone could speak, a general of Wu State had already hurriedly walked in.
But as soon as he knelt down on one knee and intervened in the salute, before he could speak, King Wu was already displeased and said, "Is there a little rule!" ”
As he spoke, he also glanced at the other three kings.
You know, this is the banquet of the four kings, and General Wu also swallowed his saliva, and then said boldly: "Can ...... But the king, there is really an urgent military situation. ”
King Wu frowned again.
Wu Jiang hurriedly stepped forward, leaned over and said: "The capital has come to report that the king of Qin, with Wei Qing as his general, led an army of 100,000 troops from Ningyang and has invaded our country. ”
"What!?" When King Wu heard this, his eyes widened, and then he waved his hand at General Wu.
"The last will be retired." The latter gave respectful salutes.
After he left, the other three kings were curious, and King Ling said, "Brother Wu, I don't know what happened?" ”
King Wu took a deep breath to calm down his mood, and said with a calm face: "King Qin is bold, at this time, he actually sent troops to attack me!" ”
"What!?" When the three kings heard this, it was not much less than the shock of King Wu before.
It wasn't until a short time later that the Spirit King snorted and laughed, and said: "It's interesting, he, Qin State, now, doesn't want to protect himself and seek peace, but instead moves troops, I really don't know whether to say that King Qin's courage is commendable, or whether to say that he is killing himself." ”
King Chu squinted his eyes and didn't speak, as if he was thinking about something.
King Huan looked left and right, spread his hands and said, "This, what's the situation?" ”
King Wu glanced at him and said coldly: "Now, the Qin army has moved, my border is in danger, and the war has begun, so you should help you." ”
As he spoke, he also glanced at the other three kings.
When King Ling heard this, he muttered slightly: "Brother Wu Wang, the countries have cut off the commercial road of Qin, in the opinion of this king, it is best for us to weaken Qin first, and then attack Qin, so that we can get twice the result with half the effort." ”
"Brother Lingwang, what do you mean by this!" King Wu was not happy on the spot: "I said that I would attack Qin together, and now that the Qin army is attacking me, don't the countries want to sit idly by?" ”
This is an obvious problem, and the intention of the Qin State is also here.
If the countries help Wu, it is equivalent to a full-scale war, and if they don't help, they will always invade the territory of Wu.
And on the side of the allies, they have to start a war here, because if they don't help Wu, King Wu will definitely leave with his sleeves up, and the allies will not need to be formed.
Therefore, as soon as King Wu finished speaking, King Ling hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, Brother Wu Wang misunderstood, this king has no such intention, since the countries are united, how can they sit idly by." ”
As he spoke, he also tilted his head slightly and glanced at Cheng Ping.
The latter understood, stepped forward and whispered: "I can only start the war in advance, if I want to continue to weaken Qin, it is no longer possible, the king of Qin has a clever strategy, and intends to force the allies." But...... It is impossible for the Qin State to block the division of the Five Kingdoms, and the King of Qin is gambling. ”
The Spirit King's face was silent, and after listening, he immediately said: "Brother Wu Wang, don't worry, since King Qin doesn't know whether he lives or dies, then we will fulfill him!" You can make an alliance and jointly send troops to attack Qin! ”
After speaking, he also glanced at King Chu and King Huan: "What do you two think?" ”
King Chu thought about it for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, just do it!" Although King Xuan is not here, I am the four countries, and I can make an alliance first! This matter should not be delayed any longer, it is important to destroy Qin! ”
Seeing this, King Huan first looked left and right, and then immediately echoed: "Yes, this king agrees." ”
"That'...... When it comes to the alliance, who is in charge of the bull's ear? The Spirit King deliberately asked again.
The two kings of Wu Chu subconsciously glanced at each other, and then they all arched their hands and said, "Please ask Brother Ling Wang to preside over the overall situation!" ”
King Huan smiled all over his face: "Yes, yes, the matter of the alliance leader, you can't ...... it unless you are the brother of the Spirit King."
