It's just...

The current situation is that the combined forces of Chu and Song attacked Xuecheng, and the Yue army besieged Yancheng, and the main force of Qi did not participate in the decisive battle.

Seeing the look of regret in King Yan's eyes, Su Dai continued: "The reason why the Qi State has not fought a big war with the Chu State now is because the Qi State still has concerns. There are two places to worry about, one is the Yan State, and the Qi State is worried that the Yan State will take advantage of the decisive battle of Qi and Chu to take the opportunity to attack the Qi State.

The other is the Wei State, the Wei State has always been reluctant to send troops to help under the pull of the Qi State, and the King of Qi is also very worried about the Wei State, worrying that the Wei State also has other thoughts. Especially when the king of Yue did not agree to the bribe of the king of Qi, after sending troops to attack Qi, the king of Qi's concerns deepened.

As long as Qi State's defense against Yan State can be temporarily eliminated, then the troops in the northern part of Qi State will be released, and this part of the troops plus Kuang Zhang's department, together with Xue Di's troops, will give Qi State the capital to compete head-on with the three kingdoms of Chu, Song and Yue. If Qi State's concerns about Wei State are eliminated, then Qi State will have the strength to defeat Chu and Song on its own.

If the Qi State has no worries, the king is worried that the two countries of Qi and Chu will drag all the countries in the world into the water, so why worry about the fact that the Qi State is unwilling to fight a decisive battle with the Chu State! ”

Yan Wangzhi was in high spirits, and hurriedly asked: "What should the widow do to eliminate the concerns of the King of Qi and let the Qi State and the Chu State lose both?" Attack Zhongshan or help Zhao resist Qin? ”

As soon as the words came out, Yan Wangzhi immediately reflected that the person in front of him was not a courtier of Yan State, but an enemy of Yan State, the minister of Qi State.

Then, Yan Wangzhi immediately looked left and right, and saw that there was only Su Dai in the main hall, so he had to laugh and say: "This... That... Widow... Actually..."

Su Dai didn't seem to see the embarrassment of King Yan, and said righteously: "Great King, Zhongshan Kingdom is an ally of Qi State, and attacking Zhongshan Kingdom will only increase Qi State's worry about Yan State, and make Yan Kingdom more vigilant, and it will not have any effect." As for Qin and Zhao, Qin is a relative of Yan, and it is too late for the king to get close to Qin, so how can he send troops to fight against Qin?

As for the State of Zhao, King Zhao is the benefactor who advocates the king's accession to the throne, and it is also a big country adjacent to the Yan State, and he can only be an enemy. ”

Yan Wangzhi couldn't help frowning when he heard Su Dai's explanation.

Now the Yan State has surrendered to the Qi State, but this is useless, and the Qi State is still not at ease with the Yan State.

Yan Guo did things on his own, but there was no place to do it, and it was even more impossible to send troops to help Qi State resist Chu State, and Yan Wang didn't mention it.

Thinking about it, Yan Wangzhi looked at Su Dai suspiciously.

Su Dai pondered and said, "Great King, have you ever remembered the Qin State's attack on Bashu back then. ”

"Bashu?" Yan Wangzhi was stunned for a moment, and then reacted thoughtfully.

Outside Xue City.

Chen Zhen got the information of Yan Guo and looked at it three times in a row, revealing a puzzled look. Then he reported to Xiong Huaiyu: "Great King, the news from Yan State that Su Dai has left Yan Country and returned to Qi State. ”

Xiong Huai looked at Chen Zhen and asked inquiringly: "What did Su Dai do in Yan Kingdom, and what did Yan Kingdom do?" ”

Although with the current situation in Qi State, the breakthrough still needs to fall on Wei State, but Xiong Huai is still a little worried that Qi State will have some moths in Yan State.

Chen Zhen arched his hand and responded: "Great King, the news that came back said that what Su Dai did in Yan Kingdom was very wrong. After Su Dai arrived in Yan Kingdom, he met with King Yan with great fanfare, handed over an ordinary letter of state to King Yan, and then scolded King Yan as an old minister of Yan Kingdom. ”

Gongsun Yan frowned when he heard this, and said: "It's unreasonable, now that the Qi State is besieged by the Three Kingdoms, in the case that the Yan State has not expressed its position, even if the Yan State is not wooed, it should also be appeased to the Yan State, why would you send Su Dai, the most hated person in the Yan Kingdom, to humiliate the Yan King?" ”

Xiong Huai was also full of questions, and asked Chen Zhen, "Didn't King Yan kill Su Dai?" ”

Chen Zhen shook his head and said with a heavy face: "Although King Yan was embarrassed and ashamed at that time, but in the end, not only did he not kill Su Dai, but also admitted his mistake frankly, what is even more puzzling is that King Yan then announced that he would lift Su Dai's arrest, and when Su Dai left Yan Kingdom, he offered a thousand gold as a gift from Su Dai. ”

"Can this be endured? It seems that King Yan is going to be the grandson of Qi State! Xiong Huai muttered.

Chen Zhen responded: "King, at present, Yan Guo really does not dare to turn his face against Qi Guo. After Su Dai submitted his credentials, King Yan never went to court again, and the news from the Yan Palace said that King Yan summoned more than ten beauties from the harem at one time that day, and for three days, he was addicted to wine and could not extricate himself. ”

Could it be that King Yan wants to vent all the grievances he suffered from Qi Guo on women?

Xiong Huai snorted twice, shook his head and said: "Yan Guo don't pay attention to it for the time being, no matter how obedient the Yan King shows to Qi Guo, Qi Guo will definitely maintain enough vigilance against Yan State, and the troops in the northern part of Qi State will always be contained by Yan State."

The things that the widow is worried about are still on the side of the country. It has been more than ten days since the Yue Kingdom besieged the city, and it stands to reason that the city should have been fought a long time ago, so why hasn't there been news yet? ”

······

Two days later, Chen Zhen reported to Xiong Huaiyu with a happy face: "King, the spies have come to report that three days ago, the city of Qi was lost under the siege of the Yue Kingdom. More than 6,000 of the 10,000 Qi troops were killed, more than 2,000 were captured, and the rest all fled. ”

"Okay."

Hearing the news from Chen Zhen's mouth, Xiong Huai immediately frowned.

This news is the best news of the day.

Chen Zhen continued: "Moreover, after the Vietnamese army conquered Yancheng, they rested for the night, and then continued to attack north and headed towards Jicheng. ”

Xiong Huai smiled heartily: "Then how did Qi Guo deal with it?" ”

Chen Zhen said with a smile: "Great King, because Kuang Zhang took away most of the Qi army from the front line of Tancheng and Jucheng, and the Qi State has not had enough troops, and the main forces are all gathered in Tancheng and Jucheng, and there are some empty needs in other places. Therefore, in the face of the strong attack of the Vietnamese army, the king of Qi had already abandoned the small county town, gathered all the Qi troops in the east in Ji Yancheng, gathered more than 20,000 Qi troops, and planned to defend the city. ”

Xiong Huai laughed and said: "More than 20,000 Qi troops defend more than 100,000 Vietnamese troops, how long can this last, even if the king of Qi can still bear it, I'm afraid those ministers of Qi can't help it!" ”

Gongsun Yan on the side said: "King, Ji Yancheng is also not a big city, with the strength of the Vietnamese army, if it is attacked, within a month, it will be able to break through the city." ”

Chen Zhen waited for Gongsun Yan to finish speaking, and then said with a smile: "There is no need to wait for the Yue army to capture Ji Yancheng, the news from Jucheng, the day the city was broken, the King of Qi was not idle, all to persuade the ministers of the King of Qi, and some persuaded the King of Qi to give up Xuecheng and transfer Kuang Zhang's army back to the east; Some persuaded the king of Qi to bow his head and admit his mistakes to our three kingdoms, and then cede the land and sue for peace; Some persuaded the king of Qi to recruit troops again from Jimo Linzi in case of accidents; others persuaded the king of Qi to transfer Kuang Zhang back and preside over the defense of the Yue Kingdom; What's more, persuade the king of Qi to leave Jucheng and return to Linzi..."
