Chapter 53 Xiang Ru went to Wei to see the situation
And Lin Xiangru came to Wei again, and saw King Wei sitting on the first place, at this moment, King Wei himself didn't know that Zhao Dan's heart was terrible, and it wasn't so simple for him to send Lin Xiangru? For King Zhao's subordinates, King Wei didn't dare to treat him badly, because he angered Zhao Wangdan, and the result can be imagined.
Zhao Wang Dan's grandfather, Zhao Wuling, offended him in Zhongshan and directly destroyed the country, although there was a friendship between the three Jin Dynasty, but he knew that the relationship between the Three Jin Dynasty had not existed more than a hundred years ago? The friendship between the three Jin Dynasty is all fake, which sentence is true?
At this moment, the King of Wei didn't know what Zhao Guo was suddenly sending people to do at this time? Now he himself is also a little afraid of Zhao Guo, Zhao Wangdan is a person who can't afford to be early, he must have something to think about otherwise, he suddenly sent someone here, what do you mean? At this moment, King Wei also couldn't see through Zhao Dan's thoughts, in his opinion, Zhao Dan was definitely not a person who was suddenly sent for no reason, it was obvious that there was no conspiracy.
In the struggle for hegemony in the world, there are conspiracies in various countries, and the people who can become kings are not simple people, and King Wei is no exception? This reminds one of the problems of the state that existed in the original history. Vertical and horizontal. This time, Zhao Guo suddenly sent someone to fight a real conspiracy, because he himself wanted to plot the land west of the river, but the opportunity has not been very ripe, and now the opportunity is in this situation? Then he, Zhao State, can launch an attack in advance? This time, Lin Xiangru suddenly came to the real purpose, that is, King Zhao wanted to plot the land west of the river and expand his strength to seize his strength. Anyway, the land of Wei is so big, and there is not much problem with it. Now the Wei State has slowly weakened, strong on the surface, but actually weak on the inside.
The real reason why Qin did not attack Wei was that Yingji wanted to take down the Shangdang first and was considering Hexi, but Zhao Dan was different, as long as he occupied the land of Hexi, he would be able to look at the world and control the geographical environment, so that Wei would be subject to his own group of people.
I won't talk about it here? Why did the Wei state weaken to the extreme? That's because in the late Warring States period, Wei Zhaowang Wei was completely weakened, and the Five Kingdoms invaded Qi, Wei took the original Song country, expanded the land for 300 li, and became the top four along with Qin, Zhao, and Yan. During the reign of King Yan Huiwen, Tian Dan returned to attack Yan, and when Yan Wu became king, Qi united with Zhao, Wei, Han, and Chu to attack Yan, and Yan weakened from then on. After the Five Kingdoms invaded Qi, Qin took advantage of Yan and Zhao to be busy pacifying Qidi, attacked Wei eight times, surrounded Wei capital Daliang five times, and took the opportunity to capture more than 20 cities of Wei between the river and Jishui. Although Wei was spared the danger of losing the country under the repeated rescues of Yan and Zhao, the territory north of Daliang and Dahe was occupied by Qin, cutting off the connection between Wei and Zhao. At the same time, Korea also lost the land of Wan and Ye due to the encroachment of Qin State for many years, resulting in the southwest of Wei State also bordering Qin State. The Qin army besieged Daliang for the eighth time, and Korea sent troops to rescue Wei, but was defeated by Qin, and Wei was forced to cede Wenyi to sue for peace. Wei and Han have since parted ways by the troubled brothers. Korea fell to Qin, Wei fell to Zhao, the following year Zhao and Wei jointly sent troops to attack Han Huayang, Qin rescued Han and defeated Zhao, and Wei allied forces. After that, Qin's eyes shifted from Wei to Zhao, and Wei was able to survive. After the Battle of Changping, the Qin soldiers entered the siege of Handan, and the Wei State rescued Zhao. Zhao and Wei defeated the Qin army in Handan. The Qin State was furious and moved troops to attack Wei on a large scale, but fortunately, Xinling Jun contacted the other countries to join forces to resist Qin, and the Wei State was able to continue. However, at this time, the territory of Wei was greatly reduced to a small country.
This is the real reason in history, of course, there are other reasons because, a large part of the weakening of Wei is because of its geographical location, first of all, the land area of Wei is not large, not as large as Qin, Chu, Qi and other large countries, lack of corresponding strategic depth, can not do a temporary defeat after the momentum of the comeback, the national strength is strong when the military is strong, once weakened, it is easy to lead to a defeat and decline of the situation, the later battle of Maling and the battle of Guiling proved this, and located in the Central Plains for the four wars, the north of the Zhao State, the west of the Qin State, The Qi State in the east is a big country that is not easy to mess with, although the Chu State in the south is separated by a South Korea, and it does not directly border the Wei State, but the strength of South Korea is a wall grass, the Chu State will fall to the Chu State as soon as it is coerced, and the south of the Wei State is not safe, no matter which of these big countries has enterprising ambitions, the Wei State is its first obstacle, although the Wei State is the first to change the law in the early stage to achieve an advantage, but the change is not complete, from Wei Wenhou and Wei Wuhou, Wei also lacks a monarch with strategic vision, In fact, after seizing the Qin State in the early stage, it should adopt the strategy of fighting the Qin State, pacifying the surrounding countries, and defending in other directions, gradually encroaching on the Qin State to achieve the goal of destroying the Qin State, obtaining a relatively stable rear, and then taking Guanzhong and the Central Plains as the foundation, and then trying to annex the countries, but unfortunately the Wei State adopted the strategy of attacking from all sides and dominating the Central Plains. In the end, it collapsed until the country was destroyed!
No matter what the reason is, the result is naturally the result that Zhao Dan doesn't want to see, this time Zhao Dan of Zhao State sent Lin Xiangru to come, the real reason is because in addition to Hexi, the real reason is to find an excuse to let Wei Qin contradict each other, and then he can become famous himself, and he can take Hexi in one fell swoop and control the land of Hexi. The real reason for his own purpose this time is precisely because of this, because the soldiers are treacherous, for Zhao State, Wei State is also impossible to underestimate, King Wei is a veritable old fox, he himself can be aware of the problems inside, he has suffered many losses on Zhao State, so it is impossible for him to underestimate King Zhao himself? Now King Zhao suddenly sent someone to his own country to make him a little suspicious, but he himself did not dare to offend Zhao State, because he was afraid of Zhao State, Zhao State has now become powerful, in the final analysis, it is King Zhao Wuling's reform that has played a role? At this time, King Wei was also afraid of the strength of Zhao State, but he himself didn't know how to fear Zhao State. He has already developed a fear of Zhao Guo on his face, what is the result? Still don't know?
At this moment, Lin Xiangru is now in the Wei State, this time it is the same as before, he King Wei himself still took the initiative to meet with the envoy Lin Xiangru of the Zhao State with his subordinates, this time the result has happened, but he doesn't know how the real situation will change! He didn't know it himself, but he knew that the battle of wits between Wei and Zhao could not end, and the good show was ahead?
