Chapter 886: Lou Slow Envoy Yan
Yan Guo thistle capital.
"Oh no, oh no, the news from General Zhao Shen, who had just guarded the north, that the Donghu people and the Koreans were going south, and the three counties of Liaodong had fallen, and General Zhao Shen was ready to abandon all the newly occupied Liaodong and other places, and retreat to Liaoxi to hold on.
However, General Zhao Shen has insufficient troops in his hands, and Liaoxi may not be able to hold much time, so please prepare the king. ”
"What?" As soon as King Yan heard Guo Kui's report, his anxious and impatient heart sank again, and then he looked up at the sky desolately, and suddenly exuded a sense of defeat and loneliness all over his body, and he never returned to his former high-spirited appearance.
Now that the main force of the Yan State has been wiped out, the army of the Qi State has not retreated, and the Donghu people and the Koreans in the north have joined forces to attack Yan, it is really a disaster, is God really going to destroy my Yan Kingdom?
When Guo Kui saw that King Yan heard the news from the north, he suddenly exuded a sense of despair all over his body, and while he was shocked in his heart, he hurriedly spoke: "King, the country is in great trouble, and the king needs to cheer up and lead the Yan Kingdom through the difficulties." ”
"How can we get through it?" King Yan yelled at Guo Kui in despair, and after roaring, he whispered in a sad tone: "The army attacking Zhongshan has been completely wiped out, and the army defending Qi has also been besieged by Qi regiments, and Sanqiu's army has also been blocked to the west of Yishui, and it is difficult to return to help."
On the Zhao side, although he promised to send troops to rescue Yan, he watched on the battlefield. To the south, although the state of Chu also agreed to send troops, the state of Chu not only had no time to take care of itself, but also was far away in Huaishui, and it was difficult to save the fire from far water.
At this moment, the widow is already exhausted, what else can be done? ”
King Yan said, looking at Guo Kui with the eyes of the wings: "Sir, at this moment, Mr. has a way." ”
"This..." Guo Kui looked at King Yan's gaze, panicked in his heart, and then immediately turned his gaze away, not daring to look at King Yan.
Now that the matter has come to this, the whole Yan Kingdom has thought of the way to do it, but there is no change in the current situation.
The general trend has gone, and there is no way back.
When King Yan saw that Guo Kui didn't dare to look directly at him, he immediately laughed at himself: "Before, Mr. advised the widow not to do anything against the Qi State, but now it is not the time to fight the Qi State, but the widow insists on going his own way and does not measure his strength to challenge the Qi State."
Now that Yan Guo has ended up in this fate, the widow does not blame Mr., he hates the widow for not measuring his talents, which makes Yan Guo's vitality greatly damaged. ”
"The King..." When Guo Kui heard this, his wrinkled old face suddenly became more and more sad.
At this time, King Yan raised his hand to interrupt Guo Kui, then looked at Guo Kui and smiled: "Sir, although you have no way now, there is still a way for the widow." ”
When Guo Kui heard this, he immediately said urgently: "The king can't, although the country is in danger, but the people feel the favor of the king, and they still have their hearts to the king, as long as the king gives an order, the fathers and brothers in the country will definitely ...
Before Guo Kui could finish speaking, he was interrupted by King Yan.
"Sir doesn't have to persuade the widow." King Yan shook his head and said, "Now that the warriors in the country are almost lost, it is difficult for the soldiers who rebelled against Sanqiu to return. In the past few years, the widows have repeatedly gone on northern expeditions, and the Donghu people have lost a large number of grassland cattle and sheep warriors, so that the king of Donghu hates the widows to the bone.
If we can't transfer the troops from the south to the north as soon as possible, so that those old and weak women and children in the north can resist the Donghu people, the widow is worried that the tragedy of the former Qi Huan Gong slaughter will happen to my Yan Kingdom. ”
As he spoke, King Yan's voice was extremely sad.
"At this moment, if you can move the King of Qi to withdraw and let Zhao send troops to rescue as soon as possible, there may only be a few heads."
"The King..." When Guo Kui heard this, he immediately fell to the ground crying.
On the other hand, King Yan ignored Guo Kui and said to himself: "The widow knows that he has not hidden his hatred for the Qi country, and has wanted to take revenge many times, so that the Qi country is very strict against the widow and takes the widow as a confidant.
On the Zhao side, the widow originally thought that Zhao Guo and Yan Guo had jointly attacked Zhongshan many times, in order to relieve the trouble of Zhongshan State, and would share Zhongshan with the widow, Zhao State occupied the majority of the head, and the widow was satisfied if he could get a few big cities.
But I didn't want to, King Zhao actually wanted to swallow Zhongshan alone, and this time the widow made a big crusade against Zhongshan, which was a big taboo for King Zhao. As a result, when the State of Qi attacked, the State of Zhao did not come close to help, but secretly helped the State of Qi. ”
Saying that, a trace of hatred flashed in King Yan's eyes, and then he shook his head again, and sighed: "If the widow dies and the young king ascends the throne, Zhao Guo doesn't have to worry about Yan Guo hitting Zhongshan again, and Qi Guo doesn't have to worry about Yan Guo disturbing the back road, in this way, Qi and Zhao should be satisfied."
Even if Qi State does not agree, Zhao State will send troops to stop the Qi army in order to allow Yan State to continue to contain Qi State.
As long as the Qi State withdraws its troops, the Yan army in the south can return north as soon as possible and stabilize the situation in western Liao. In this way, my Yan country has cultivated for decades, and when the national strength is restored, and the situation in the world is on the side, I can still take revenge on the two countries of Qi and Zhao. ”
"The King..." Guo Kui cried when he heard this, and cried: "The old minister is incompetent, he is deeply favored by the king, and he is only willing to follow the king." ”
King Yan was stunned, and the words of persuasion had not yet been spoken, and on that side, Meng Mao, an important minister of Yan State, walked into the hall quickly.
As soon as Meng Mao entered the hall, he saw that King Yan was crying opposite Guo Kui, and after being slightly stunned, he immediately arched his hand and said: "King, the envoy of Zhao State is visiting Lou and is asking to see the king outside the palace. ”
"Zhao State Envoy!?" King Yan was slightly stunned, and then asked expectantly: "Did Zhao Guo go to the rescue of Qu Wei?" ”
"I haven't heard of it." Meng Mao shook his head.
"Nope! What is the so-called matter of Yan Guo in that building? King Yan hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Guo Kui, and a pimple suddenly rose in his heart.
The timing of this Lou Slow coming was also too ingenious, Yan Guo had just received the news that Hu Ren had cut down Yan, and his Zhao State envoy Lou Slow arrived immediately.
This one after the other, no one hesitates.
But, at this time, the Yan Kingdom...
Thinking about it, King Yan quickly gathered his mind, and then nodded to Meng Mao and said, "Please, please Xianqing personally lead the envoy to attack." ”
"Yui."
Soon after, Lou slowly came to the main hall.
After the ceremony.
King Yan didn't wait for Lou to speak, so he took the initiative and asked expectantly: "Mr. came to see the widow, is it that Zhao Guo has already sent troops to rescue Qu Wei!" ”
Lou Xuanyan's face stiffened slightly, remembering the purpose of his coming, he couldn't help coughing lightly twice in embarrassment, and then shook his head, and responded: "Back to the king, Yan is an ally of our country, and Qi is also an ally of our country. ”
Intervene?
Hearing this, King Yan took a deep look at Lou Yan.
The widow paid the price of two hundred and fifty miles of land, is he asking Zhao to intervene?
In addition to preventing Zhao Guo from falling into the well and sending troops to attack Yan, it is more important to ask Zhao Guo to send troops to rescue.
And not what intervention!
King Yan thought, the expectation on his face disappeared instantly, and then he looked at Lou Xuan expressionlessly, but did not speak.
Lou Xuan saw that King Yan had changed color, and immediately knew that King Yan himself was extremely dissatisfied.
However, even if King Yan is dissatisfied with him, so what, at least King Yan is not busy expressing his dissatisfaction with him in person now.
Thinking about it, Lou Xuan continued to say unhurriedly: "The State of Qi is an ally of our country, and the widow does not want to go to war with the State of Qi, but the king's request for help, the widow monarch cannot help, so in order to calm the war between Qi and Yan, in order to make the Qi State retreat, the widow can only send a messenger to intercede with the King of Qi for the Yan State."
After repeated persuasion by the envoys of our country, the king of Qi was finally willing to open his mouth and agree, as long as the king agreed to the conditions of Qi, Qi agreed to withdraw from Yan. ”
As soon as Guo Kui heard that King Qi had promised to withdraw from the army, and King Yan would not have to die, he suddenly showed a hint of joy and hurriedly asked, "Dare to ask Mr., what are the conditions for King Qi?" ”
King Yan was silent for a moment when he heard this, but saw Lou laughing slowly and silent, although he was angry in his heart, he was still physically and mentally exhausted, and asked helplessly in person: "Sir, what does King Qi want?" ”
