Chapter 526: Situation
King Yue was stunned.
It was true that he had never heard of it.
After thinking about it, King Yue looked at Chen Jia and said, "Envoy, King Wei went to see King Zhao, isn't your country worried?" It must be known that Chu and Zhao are allies, and the Wei Dynasty worships King Zhao, which is bowing to the Chu State. β
Chen Jia shook his head with a smile and said, "Great King, although Zhao is an ally of Chu State, this is true, but Zhao State and my Qi State are also allies!" β
King Yue was reminded by Chen Jia and immediately remembered.
This is not wrong, since the Five Kingdoms Invasion of Qin a few years ago, the two countries of Qi and Zhao have formed an alliance.
In order to thank Qi for its assistance in Shangjun, Zhao also sent several cities to Qi.
Since then, there has been no war between Qi and Zhao.
Therefore, it is difficult to say whether Wei submitted to Zhao or wanted to stabilize Zhao and then continue to resist Chu.
Chen Jia saw that King Yue did not speak, and continued: "I don't know what the king thinks, King Zhao is happy to see the king of Wei and King Han go to the court to see it?" Or will it refuse? β
King Yue didn't want to think about it, and said as a matter of course: "The king of another country comes to see him, and King Zhao will naturally be happy to see it." β
Chen Jia nodded and said, "King, the minister thinks it's the same." It's just that, next, I don't know what the king thinks, after King Zhao accepts the court of King Han of Wei and obtains the position of the head of the Three Jin Dynasty, will he continue to succumb to the state of Chu, or unite Han and Wei, unite the two countries of Qin and Qi, and challenge the current overlord of the world, Chu? β
"This..."
King Yue's face showed hesitation.
What King Zhao will choose, he doesn't know. However, if he is allowed to choose by himself, he will definitely suppress the current overlord Chu first, eliminate the troubles of Han and Wei, and then unite Han and Wei to obtain benefits from the surrounding Qin, Qi, Yan, Zhongshan and other countries.
In the past, Wei did just that, with remarkable results, and maintained its hegemony for nearly a hundred years.
Chen Jia saw that King Yue had a different color on his face, so he knew that King Yue had been shaken, so he made persistent efforts and said: "King, as long as Zhao accepts the court meeting between Han and Wei, then the war between Korea and Wei will not be able to continue." Korea withdrew its troops from Wei, and Zhao could not send troops to attack Wei, which had just come to see him, so the Sanjin would have a truce. Next, I don't know what the king thinks that the three Jin Dynasty between the three kingdoms of Qin, Chu and Song will be reunited, so will he continue to attack Wei? β
King Yue was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Probably not!" β
Chen Jia nodded: "The king is wise, the minister also thinks so, at least, the Song Kingdom, which is now tired, will definitely retreat." After the Song State withdrew its troops, Qin and Chu faced the Three Jin Dynasty alone, so the first thing to consider was how to protect themselves, not how to invade the Wei State. β
King Yue couldn't help but nod when he heard this.
Chen Jia continued: "The king, the widow also asked the minister to bring a message to the king. That is, while sending ministers to visit the king, the widow also sent envoys to Zhao and Qin, hoping to persuade Qin Zhao to work with us to weaken the brutal Chu state. β
"Huh?" King Yue was shocked.
The situation is not right, if Qin and Zhao agree to the request of the State of Qi and send troops together to deal with the State of Chu, then what should he do if he crosses the country?
Just thinking about it, I heard Chen Jia say quietly:
"Great King, if all the countries in the world unite to weaken the Chu State, then I don't know how the king will deal with himself."
King Yue opened his mouth, did not speak, paused, and then said with malice: "Perhaps, Qin and Zhao will not agree to weaken the Chu State." β
Chen Jia shook his head, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, and he said: "For example, among the countries today, the Chu State is the strongest, over the years, the Chu State has repeatedly invaded our Qi State, so that almost all the land south of the Great Wall of our Qi State has been lost, and the national strength has been greatly damaged.
If Zhao did not agree to weaken Chu with our Qi State after obtaining the position of the head of the Three Jin Dynasty, then it was obvious that Zhao State was attacking the idea of our Qi State, so in order to protect itself, our State had to cede Tancheng and even Jucheng to Chu State in order to seek self-preservation. β
Saying that, Chen Jia saw King Yue's heavy expression, and continued: "After the Chu State got Jucheng, facing the Great Wall of our Qi State, it can only target other countries, this place, either Korea or Wei State, in this case, how can Zhao State sit on the sidelines."
If Zhao sent troops to rescue Han and Wei, it would be to use the strength of the Three Jin Dynasty to fight the powerful Chu State and our Qi State.
If Zhao does not send troops, then Han and Wei will inevitably break away from Zhao and return to Chu.
At that time, the state of Chu united with our country of Qi, plus the two countries of Han and Wei, they could dominate the world and look down on all countries. At that time, the State of Chu bullied the Son of Heaven, punched the State of Qin, kicked the State of Zhao, and all countries in the world, who could fight against it.
Therefore, between Chu and Zhao, sooner or later there will be a war, if Zhao does not weaken Chu when it is strong, then wait for a while, then there will be no chance. β
After speaking, Chen Jia smiled and said: "I don't know if what the king thinks the minister said is an exaggeration of intimidation." I don't know if the king still thinks that Zhao will send troops with our country to weaken Chu? β
"This..." King Yue was silent, and he couldn't respond for a while.
He was already convinced in his heart.
It's just that he Yue is also a big country, not a vassal of Chu, how can he be weakened with Chu.
However, if this time loosens the mouthΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Then all his previous insistence will not only be in vain, but will be suppressed by the Qi State, and he, the king of Yue who is in a hurry to make peace, will become a laughing stock among all countries. What's more, if Yue Guo behaves too much, it may also cause Qi to despise Yue Guo.
After the Qi State defeats the Chu State and regains the land occupied by the Chu State over the years, then next, will the Qi State fight the idea of the Yue State, that is, a dispensable Yue State, will other countries come to the rescue and persuade peace?
This last point is the key.
Thinking of this, King Yue faintly regretted in his heart, he knew that this would be the case, he should not have held his own price before, and he would not let go, and now, if he wants to sell it cheaply, it seems that it is no longer a matter of making less money, but may lose money.
Don't talk about Langya, with the strength of the Yue Kingdom, it may be difficult to keep even the land and the land.
Thinking about it, King Yue sighed for a long time.
Seeing the uncertain expression on King Yue's face, Chen Jia then spoke: "King, my Qi State and Yue Kingdom have no hatred, but it is only because of the relationship between Chu State that the two countries fight each other. Now, the countries are attacking our Qi country, and the Zhao country has not officially united with our country. Therefore, in order to show sincerity, our country is still under the same conditions, and we can still cede the land of Langya to your country. β
