Qin Wang Yingji, on the one hand, sent the Qin general Zhao Yi to quickly reinforce the Qin army in Luoyi.

At the same time, Qin's diplomatic work did not fall behind.

Yingji accepted Fan Ju's suggestion and sent envoys to Yan, Qi, Korea, and Chu.

intends to disintegrate the countries due to the death of the Son of Heaven Ji Yan, and formed another conspiracy.

At this time, an anti-Qin alliance between Wei and Zhao had been formed. The Qin State was very afraid of other countries and joined this alliance. If so, the Qin State is indeed "unbearable" now.

The purpose of the envoy's trip to Korea was to appease Han Wangran, to make Korea feel at ease, not to let Korea send troops to attack Qin, and promised to return Yangcheng and Huangcheng occupied by the Qin army to Korea;

For the Qi State, Fan Ju's intention was very clear, that is, to let the Qi State send troops to the border of Qi and Wei, and involve the Wei State to prepare for the invasion of the Qin State; For the state of Chu, the state of Qin recognized the occupation of the state of Lu by the state of Chu, and the purpose was also to prevent the state of Chu from sending troops.

As for Yan Guo, Qin Wang Yingji "knocked out his teeth and swallowed it in his stomach". In a letter to Ji Ming, the king of Yan, Yingji reiterated that the alliance between Qin and Yan was reliable and strong, and that the battle of Handan would not cause a rupture in relations between the two countries.

It must be said that Qin Xiang Fan Ju's diplomatic strategy this time was very effective and successful.

After Han Wangran summoned the Qin envoy, he learned that Qin Wang Yingji planned to return Yangcheng and Huangcheng to Korea.

King Han Henghui is very grateful to King Qin Yingji!

When did I see Qin Wang Yingji so polite. The original plan to unite Zhao and Wei to attack Qin was suddenly thrown out of the "nine clouds". There is no longer the idea of uniting with Zhao Wei and sending troops to attack Qin.

If Ji Kang was present and saw Han Wangran's attitude towards the Qin envoy, he would definitely say this: "Wangcai who wags his tail."

The queen of Qi still takes "being cautious about Qin" as the main national policy.

Qi State, who thought he was the younger brother of Qin, saw that the boss spoke at this time, coupled with the instigation of Hou Sheng, the younger brother of the queen, he actually sent tens of thousands of Qi troops west to Luoyi, preparing to help Qin.

Of course Wei is gone, I am now an ally with Zhao! Your Qi State wants to pass through the land of my Wei State and go to attack the Zhao army, but there is no door.

After discussing with the courtiers, Wei Wangyu quickly sent a large army.

In the area of Suiyang (present-day Suiyang District, Shangqiu City, Henan Province) in the eastern part of the Wei State, the Qi army was blocked.

Qin's Hangu Pass was very close to Luoyi, and after passing through Mianchi (present-day Mianchi County, Henan Province), you could enter Luoyi's jurisdiction.

Therefore, after the Qin general Zhao Yi led the army out of Guguan, he traveled day and night, and came to the city of Luoyi in a few days.

As soon as Zhao Yi came to Luoyi, he didn't let the Qin army led by him rest at all, and prepared to attack the Zhao army.

Some generals of the Qin army persuaded Zhao Yidao:

"Now that our Qin army has come from afar, it is very tired, why don't the general let our army rest for a day and then attack the Zhao army?"

Zhao Yi laughed and said to the generals of the Qin army:

"That's what we think, and so must Zhao Jun. Now although our Qin army is tired, the Zhao army is also tired after many days of siege. Our army will attack it by surprise, and General Wang Ji in the city will go out of the city to attack the Zhao army. In this way, the Zhao army will be defeated. ”

I can't help but say that Zhao Ye and Wang Yi have a tacit understanding.

Zhao Yi suddenly launched an attack on the Zhao army, and the commander of the Zhao army, Le Cheng, was indeed caught off guard, so he had to start a melee with the Qin army under Luoyi City. And Wang Di and Zhang Tang led the Qin army in the city to also kill out and flank the Zhao army.

The Zhao army was defeated, and the Qin army led by Zhao Ji killed and captured nearly 90,000 people.

After the Qin army led by Zhao Ye converged with the Qin army in Luoyi City, according to the edict of Qin Wang Yingji, Zhao Ye was the main general and Wang Yi was the deputy general, with a total of 250,000 troops.

The Qin general Zhao Yi did not let the Qin army rest, and asked Zhang Tang to lead an army of 50,000 to continue to garrison Luoyi City to treat the wounded soldiers of the Qin army and take care of the Zhao army's prisoners. He and Wang Yi led the main force of the Qin army and kept covering and chasing the Zhao army.

Le Cheng and Qingshe led the Zhao army all the way back.

It was only at Pingyang and Wucheng on the southern Great Wall of Zhao that he stabilized his foothold.

Some time ago, Le Cheng led the Zhao army to defeat Wang Yi, and the more than 20 cities in Ningxinzhong that he occupied were all recaptured by the Qin army led by Zhao Yi and Wang Yi.

In this way, Zhao Yi and Wang Yi did not give up, and led the Qin army to reoccupy Ningxinzhong, and then attacked Pingyang City and Wucheng City of Zhao State from the south.

Le Cheng and Qingshe had no choice but to lead the remnants of the Zhao army to fight against the Qin army's invasion with Wucheng in Pingyang.

At the same time, he sent someone to report to King Zhao of Handan.

Zhao Wang Dan, who was in Handan City, was very happy to see that Le Cheng led the Zhao army to defeat Wang Yi and occupy Ning Xinzhong. Unexpectedly, I didn't feel happy for a few days, and I received this "bad news" again.

Now the Zhao army has lost more than 90,000 troops at once, which can be described as a blow to the head and even worse for the Zhao State at this time.

The most important thing is that there is no army to send in Handan City now!

Several generals of the Zhao State led their troops to garrison outside and were not in Handan City.

The veteran Lian Po led an army to garrison the former capital of Jinyang to guard against the Qin State; Pang Xuan led the army to garrison in the north, guarding against Qi and Yan; Li Mu led his army to garrison Daijun and Yunzhong to guard against the Xiongnu in the north.

Zhao Wangdan quickly sent someone to find Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains, and asked about countermeasures.

Zhao Sheng scolded Lecheng in his heart, but this problem had to be solved quickly.

Pingyuanjun himself really doesn't want to go through another tragic battle to defend Handan.

After Zhao Sheng pondered for a while, he said to Zhao Wangdan:

"Your Majesty, now that my Zhao State has no troops to send, I have to seek foreign aid. Now that Wei is facing off with Qi on the border, there is definitely no time to come to the aid of Zhao; Yan is too far away, and far water can't save the near fire; ”

"Now, it seems that we have to ask the Chu State for help. Now that the State of Chu occupies the State of Lu, the army of the general of the State of Chu, Jingyang, is stationed in the territory of Ludi, which is very close to my State of Zhao. ”

"My king can send an envoy to Chen Ying, and say to the king of Chu: My Zhao State recognizes the occupation of Lu by Chu State. Let the king of Chu send a large army to rescue my Zhao State. The minister also sent a letter to the order Yin of the Chu State, and Huang Xie of Chun Shenjun asked him to help me with the Zhao State. ”

After listening to Pingyuanjun's words, Zhao Wangdan said again and again:

"Good, very good. Uncle Wang's strategy is very good, so let's handle it as soon as possible! ”

Zhao Wangdan and Pingyuan Jun wrote the documents and immediately sent Mao Sui to Chen Ying, the capital of Chu State, to ask for help from Chu State.

The world is in chaos, but the situation in Chu is very good.

Lord Yin of the Chu State and Chun Shenjun Huang Xie had already returned to Chen Ying, the capital of the Chu State, at this time.

The one who led the army of Chu to garrison in Lucheng (now Qufu, Shandong) was Jingyang, the general of Chu.

The time came in late November, the capital of Chu State, Chen Ying (now Huaiyang, Henan Province), Chunshen Junfu.

Seeing the chaos in the Central Plains countries at this time, our Chu State Ling Yin, Chun Shenjun and Huang Xie were very proud.

Huang Xie was naturally proud, and the princes were fighting so much today. It's Huang Xie, a simple strategy of "Fengtianzi", and he came up with it!

After reading the letter written to him by Qin Xiang Fan Ju and Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng, Huang Xie laughed.

To the two disciples Zhu Ying and Li Yuan who trusted him, he said unwillingly:

"The princes of the world are all played with by me Huang Xie between applause! This time, the Son of Heaven was in trouble, and King Yingji of Qin gained nothing, but gave the princes of the world another opportunity to join forces to attack Qin. ”

"Now Qin Xiang Fan Ju is called a resourceful man by the world. Now I have to ask for the head of my Chu State, hoping to strengthen the alliance with my Chu State and recognize the fact that Lu State is occupied by my Chu State. ”

"The same is true of the Zhao State, and now Pingyuan Jun has come to ask my Chu State for help again, and he has also recognized the occupation of the Lu State by my Chu State. In this way, my Chu country will have no worries in the future. ”

The doorman Li Yuan stepped forward with Zhu Ying and said to Huang Xie: "Congratulations to my lord!" Hail to my Lord! ”

Seeing this, Chun Shenjun Huang Xie was even more happy, and said to Li Yuan and Zhu Ying:

"Let's all rejoice! There's also your work in that. Now that Zhao wants my Chu State to send troops to aid his country again, how should my Chu State deal with it? ”

The doorman Zhu Ying was very resourceful, thought for a while, and said to Huang Xie:

Ling Yin, as the saying goes: "People have no long-term concerns, but they must have near-term worries." "Now the Zhao State must not be occupied by the Qin army, otherwise the Qin State may really recover from the fiasco in the Battle of Handan, which will not be of any benefit to our Chu State."

"For the Qin State, I and the Chu State must not be offended too much. This time, my Chu State can let General Jingyang, who is stationed in Ludi, send troops to rescue Zhao State, but not directly engage the Qin army. ”

"Lord Yin can let General Jingyang lead the army, and the soldiers will point directly at Ning Xinzhong, threatening the back road of the Qin army, and the Qin army will retreat. In this way, our Chu State did not directly confront the Qin army, but also relieved the siege of Zhao State, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. ”

After Huang Xie listened to Zhu Ying's words, he was very happy and said to Zhu Ying: "Good." Click here. ”
