Chapter 265: Military Success
Like Xiong Huai's thoughts, Wei also did not gain any benefits in this process, and the matter of strengthening Korea was simply wishful thinking.
After Xiong Huai finished speaking, King Wei said: "King Han, the widow thinks that what the alliance leader said is right, not only does it take two weeks to volunteer, but it also can't let all the two-week army participate in the Son of Heaven Escort Army, and the widow thinks that it is necessary to limit the number of people who join the escort army in two weeks, at least not more than half of the total number of troops in two weeks." โ
Seeing that the King of Chu and King Wei were all opposed to the complete disintegration of the two-week plan, King Han could only sigh silently and said with a smile: "What the alliance leader King Wei said is right, such a sacred and glorious thing to join the Son of Heaven Guardian Army cannot be easily joined by the two-week army, and the number of people must be selected and controlled." โ
Xiong Huai and King Wei heard that King Han was relieved, looked at each other, and breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that the matter of establishing a standing coalition army would go bankrupt because South Korea did not agree.
Since King Han has given in, then he has to back down.
Xiong Huai thought for a while and said: "Although the two-week army cannot all join the escort army, the Eastern Zhou Jun and the Western Zhou Jun, as Zhou Tianzi's secretaries, must participate in the plan to defend Zhou Tianzi, and they must also set an example and provide most of the food. โ
"So the widow means, our three kingdoms of Chu, Wei and Han each provide food for 15,000 people, and in addition to providing food for our own army, we also need to provide food for the remaining 15,000 people in our three kingdoms for two weeks."
King Wei nodded: "What the alliance leader said is very true, not only that, but the widows thought that they would need to take out the customs duties of a big city each in two weeks, thinking that it was for military use. โ
King Han turned his anger into joy when he heard this, although he did not achieve the goal of completely striking at two weeks, but the plan of King Wei of Chu was also a heavy burden for two weeks.
King Han smiled: "No one thinks this is feasible!" โ
It was agreed, Xiong Huai said to the Shangguan doctor behind him: "Xianqing, you go and go to the Western Zhou Jun and tell the Western Zhou Jun what the widow means." โ
"Yui!."
Doctor Shangguan understood and left.
As for the Eastern Zhou Kingdom, it has been reduced to a vassal of Korea, so naturally it cannot be moved.
Then, the king of Wei said to Cheng Lingjun: "Cheng Lingjun, you go to the court to meet the Son of Heaven and tell the Son of Heaven the good news!" โ
Cheng Lingjun responded: "Only! โ
King Han nodded and said to Shen Cha: "General, there is a meaning for you to go to the Eastern Zhou Jun and inform the Eastern Zhou Jun of our Three Kingdoms." โ
"Yes, King!"
Shen cha gave up.

Soon after, the Western Zhou Prime Minister found the King of Qi.
The King of Qi was originally surprised that the King of Chu invited the King of Wei and the King of Han but did not invite him, thinking that the Chu State had some conspiracy, but he didn't want the Three Kingdoms to prepare for the defeat of Qin.
"The king of Chu plans to use 20,000 troops to trap Wei and Han and establish a solid alliance?" King Qi thought for a moment and muttered, "This is indeed a good idea..."
The next day, Chu, Wei and Han each sent 20,000 troops, the Western Zhou State sent 10,000 troops, and the Eastern Zhou State sent 5,000 troops, with Chu General Zhaoying as the main general, and formally formed a coalition army of 75,000 people.
Xianyang, Qin State.
Xiang Shou reported to Qin Wangdang with a happy face at this time: "Great King, after two major battles, the chief has completely defeated the main force of Yiqu State, and the army has surrounded Xunyi. โ
said, regretfully: "It's a pity that the chief sent a message that because of the lack of troops, coupled with the rapid advance, there are not enough siege equipment, so in the face of Xunyi, you can only take the method of besieging the city." โ
"Now, while the chief is making people build siege equipment, he is sending people to force the king of Yiqu to form an alliance with our Qin State and jointly send troops to deal with the five Kwantung countries."
"Good, good, good. Uncle Wang is worthy of being a famous general of my Qin State, and within a few days, he fought two battles in succession to break the Yiqu State, and quickly relieved my Qin State's worries, which is a great achievement. โ
"After this battle, the widow is completely relieved."
Saying that, Qin Wangdang showed hesitation again: "Although Uncle Wang broke the Yiqu Kingdom in the northwest and greatly deterred the Five Nations Alliance, the Five Nations still did not suffer the slightest damage. โ
"If you forcibly attack the five countries, it will not only be protracted, but also easy to cause accidents, so we should focus on breaking up the alliance at the moment, so that the five countries will collapse without a fight."
Xiang Shou flattered when he heard this: "The king is wise, after the matter of the Yiqu State, our Qin State has proved our strength to the world, and the next five countries will definitely collapse without a fight. โ
Qin Wangdang nodded smugly at first, and then quickly shook his head and scolded with a smile: "What nonsense, the first monarch and filial piety took back Luoshui with the poor and weak Qin State, and the first king recovered Hexi and Shangjun, how can the widow's current achievements be compared with the first king." โ
Xiang Shou blamed himself when he heard this: "King, it is the minister who lost his words and lost his words. โ
After speaking, Xiang Shou bowed his hand again and said: "However, the king, the minister believes that the king's talent, in the near future, will definitely surpass that of the ancestors of the Qin State, and the minister is convinced of this." โ
When Qin Wang Dang heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he said with a smile: "Flattery, you courtier." โ
After laughing, Qin Wangdang asked again: "If you want the Five Kingdoms to retreat by themselves, you still need a strategist who can speak well, but none of the important ministers of the Qin State are around, and there is no one to choose for a while!" โ
"This..." Xiang Shou wanted to say Xiangguo Zhang Yi, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed again.
As a close minister of King Qin, he naturally knew that King Qin didn't like Zhang Yi very much.
Qin Wangdang thought for a while and said: "Shaoliang guards Gan Mao, who is outstanding, resourceful, and proficient in the art of a hundred schools, is a talent of Xiangguo, and should be able to make the five kingdoms retreat." โ
Saying that, Qin Wangdang nodded firmly.
Just talking about Xiangguo, Qin Wangdang remembered that he hadn't seen Zhang Yilai for a long time, and asked with a smile: "How is Xiangguo now, I've been sick for almost twenty days, and I should have recovered!" โ
Xiang Shou shook his head when he heard this: "King, Xiangguo is still closed. โ
Qin Wangdang said indifferently when he heard this: "Although Xiangguo can't be a director, but such a big happy event, I still have to be notified." โ
"You sent someone to tell Xiangguo, and you said that during your illness, the threat of Yiquguo has been lifted. Moreover, soon, the widow will arrange for Uncle Wang to go east, and plan to appoint Gan Mao to divide the five kingdoms and make them retreat. Let Xiangguo not have to worry about the political affairs of Qin State, and just recuperate with peace of mind! โ
"Yes, my lord."
Zhang Yi's house.
Feng Xi's face was ugly as he watched King Qin's envoy leave.
Then, looking at Zhang Yi who was smiling, he asked puzzledly: "Your Majesty, this time the defeat of Yiqu is your credit, and now the king has sent someone to humiliate you, why don't you explain, but are you so happy?" โ
Zhang Yi shook his head and smiled: "If the king ignores me, this is what I should be worried about, and now the king has sent someone to humiliate me, which shows that in the more than 20 days that I have been closed, the king's resentment against me and the pressure on me have all been lightened a lot, this is my biggest gain." As for those credits, now that I am the father of King Qin, what is the use of asking for these credits. โ
Feng Xi was thoughtful, and then asked, "Your Majesty, then what should we do next?" โ
Zhang Yi was silent for a while when he heard this, and then spoke: "The king's strategy is very correct, and it is not much different from what I thought. So, now I don't have to do anything, just listen to the king, and just recuperate with peace of mind. โ
