Chapter 299: Asking for help
Hearing this, Chen Zhen reminded: "King, now we are still at war with the Qin State, and the Yan State is too far away, I am afraid that the Chu State will be far away and it will be difficult to quench the thirst of the near one." โ
"And Zhao and Wei have just formed an alliance with the Qi State, and the war with the Qin army has not yet ended, I am afraid that Zhao and Wei will not interfere in this matter by force."
Xiong Huai nodded, what Chen Zhen said was very reasonable, if Chu Guoguang protested, it would definitely have no effect.
If Tang Wu is directly allowed to send troops to attack Qi, this is to destroy the great cause of all countries to attack Qin, and it will be isolated, and the Three Jin Dynasty may directly fall to Qi, which is not advisable.
After pondering for a moment, Xiong Huai spoke: "Now that the upper county of the Qin State has lost more than half, and the battlefield of the upper county and the west river, the Qin army has suffered more than 100,000 casualties, which has achieved the goal of weakening the Qin state, so the widow intends to make peace with the Qin state." โ
Chen Zhen replied: "King, if our Chu State wants to make peace with the Qin State, then we can't make peace with the Qin State alone, and we must also pull the Three Jins." โ
"Otherwise, it will not only make the Sanjin full of resentment against the Chu State, but also make the rescue of the Yan State a failure, if you want to rescue the Yan State, then you must get the support of the Sanjin, especially the Zhao State."
Xiong Huai nodded: "This is nature. Now that Zhao has captured most of the upper counties, it is difficult to continue when the army of Qi is stagnant, and continuing to fight is just a matter of vain for Zhao State. If it was to make peace with the Qin State at this time, then the Zhao State would not refuse. โ
"South Korea, on the other hand, is just here to watch the war."
"As long as the Three Kingdoms agree to negotiate peace with Qin, then Wei will have no choice."
Chen Zhen arched his hand and said, "The king is wise." โ
Xiong Huai bowed his head and said: "Immediately send an envoy to invite the King of Zhao and the King of Wei to Quwo for a meeting to discuss the affairs of Qin and Qi." โ
"In addition, as soon as King Han was informed, he said that the widow invited him to Quwo to discuss the affairs of the Qin State and the Yan Kingdom."
"No."
In the city of Skin.
When King Zhao received a request from the King of Chu to meet, he immediately summoned his ministers and asked, "The King of Chu invited the widow to Quwo for a while to discuss the affairs of Qin and Qi, and the widow has already agreed to the envoy of the State of Chu. โ
"However, the widow still has doubts about the current situation, what do the ministers think of the alliance proposed by the king of Chu?"
Fu Ding responded: "King, the state of Chu has been watching the changes in the world before, after the Yan army was trapped, the king of Chu immediately invited the three Jin alliances, and the minister thought that the king of Chu had already made peace with the state of Qin, and turned the gun to deal with the state of Qi. โ
"As we all know, after the state of Chu subdued the state of Wei and Qi in the past, it focused on the state of Qin, but the state of Chu faced the Wuguan Hangu Pass, and the state of Chu worked in vain."
After the defeat of Qi, Chu aimed at Qi and attacked Qi one after another. After all, it was far easier for Chu to attack Qi than Qin. โ
"Therefore, this time the Qi State is playing with the world again, and intends to solve the matter of the Yan State in one fell swoop, which has already aroused the worry of the Chu State."
"The growth of the Qi State is extremely unfavorable to the Chu State."
Wang Ben nodded: "Yes, the king, continuing to attack the Qin State will no longer be able to get the slightest benefit for the Chu State, and now the King of Chu has invited the Three Jin Dynasty to join the alliance, which must be to make peace with the Qin State and restrict the Qi State." โ
King Zhao bowed slightly, and then asked, "Then I don't know what the Qing thinks my Zhao State should choose." โ
Le Chi opened his mouth and said: "King, now that the Qi army has stopped, it is difficult for me to continue to fight with the Qin army with the strength of my Zhao army alone, and the Zhao army has exhausted its strength. โ
"Not only that, once the state of Chu intends to make peace with the state of Qin, then it is very likely that the state of Chu will withdraw its troops alone, and as soon as the Chu army retreats, then the Han army will also retreat, and in this way, the Qin army of Wuguan and Hangu Pass will be released. The Qin army is heading north in large numbers, so with the strength of our Zhao State alone, I am afraid that we will need all our strength to compete with the Qin State. โ
"But in this way, it is the decisive battle between the Zhao State and the Qin State in Shangjun in advance, and the minister thinks that this is not the time."
Wang Ben nodded and said: "Great King, now the main force of the Qin State is still there, and the Zhongshan State has been defeated once last time, and now it is difficult for the Yan State to even protect itself." Therefore, it is easy to capture Zhongshan, and it is unpredictable to defeat and defeat with Qin, so please make peace with Qin. โ
"Okay, then according to the words of the Qing, make peace with the Qin State!" Seeing that most of the ministers supported peace with the Qin State, King Zhao nodded, and then asked, "What about the Qi State?" โ
Le Chi spoke: "Great King, since the State of Chu is very likely to target the State of Qi next, then we cannot send troops to get involved in the affairs of the State of Yan by force, so as not to break out into a head-on conflict with the State of Qi." โ
Fu Ding said with a smile: "Now that the Qi State and Zhao Wei have formed an alliance, if the Qi State cannot make a move against the Yan State under the interference of various countries, then the Qi State can only choose to cultivate or go south, and the Chu State will face the danger of the Qin State, I am afraid it will also choose the east, so let the Qi State and the Chu State fight." โ
ยทยทยทยทยทยท
During the period when the state of Chu and the three Jin Dynasty went to Quwo to join the alliance, the Yan army learned of the plan and tried to break through, but was blocked by the Zhongshan army relying on the geographical advantage.
The two sides fought for two days, but all suffered heavy losses, and the Yan army finally failed to break through.
The news reached the Ji capital of Yan Kingdom.
At this time, Yan Wangzhi looked like a mourner, and Yan Wang, who had always been positive and enterprising, was already depressed, full of the appearance of being hit.
Seeing this, Guo Kui was silent for a long time and then said: "King, we still have a chance now, although the Yan army failed to break through, it can still protect itself in a short period of time, and within half a month, there is no risk of food and grass for the time being, and this period of time is enough for us to take action to rescue the trapped Yan army." โ
Hearing this, Yan Wangzhi's eyes gradually regained vitality, and he paused and said, "Sir, the widow is helpless now, please teach me!" โ
Guo Kui responded: "Great King, the envoy of the State of Chu has put forward a request for an alliance between Chu and Yan, and the king can immediately agree to the State of Chu, and then tell the world the news of the alliance between Chu and Yan, hoping to arouse the concerns of the State of Qi." Then, we continued to send envoys to ask for help from the Sanjin and the state of Chu. โ
Yan Wangzhi asked puzzledly: "Sir, the widow has sent several envoys to the Three Jin and Chu States to ask for help, but now that there is no news from the four countries, is it useful to continue to send envoys?" โ
"Of course it works!" Guo Kui said as a matter of course: "Great King, the more frequent the envoys we send, the more difficult it means that our Yan Kingdom is more and more difficult, and this is the method of the Yan Kingdom to urge all countries to make decisions as soon as possible." โ
"Especially Zhao Guo, although Zhao Guo also has the intention of teaching our Yan State a lesson this time, Zhao Guo will definitely not sit idly by and watch Yan Guo fall to Qi State, especially if Yan State forms an alliance with Qi State Zhongshan State at the same time."
Yan Wangzhi was stunned for a moment, and immediately said with a bloodless face: "What does Mr. mean is that if Zhao Guo is deliberately prevaricating and delays sending troops, then the widow will seek peace between Qi and Zhongshan?" โ
For this, Yan Wangzhi resisted in his heart, Qi State was an enemy with a blood feud, and Zhongshan State was not only an enemy but also weaker than Yan State.
This...
It's really aggrieved!
