Chapter 477: East in and West Out
"But."
Zhu Liji did not agree with Zhang Yi's strategy, and questioned it: "Xiangguo, this time the Chu State united countries to attack the Wei State is different from the last time, the main force of the Chu State was still fighting against the Qi State last time, and hastily united the countries to besiege the Wei State, which was blocked by the Wei State. But this time, the state of Chu contacted other countries one after another, clearly intending to attack the state of Wei. This time, the Wei State is facing the siege of various countries, and if it wants to block the siege of various countries that has been carefully prepared for a long time, it will definitely not be as easy as the last time, even if there is the help of the Qi State, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult.
And the Wei State was originally a capricious country, and for decades, every time it was defeated by our Qin State, it would take refuge in our Qin State. Therefore, I thought that this time, Wei would also be the same. Once Wei is defeated, there is a good chance that it will betray Qi and ally with Chu again. At that time, if our attack on Yiqu had not yet come to fruition, and the State of Chu had ordered the Three Jin Dynasty to besiege us, I am afraid that our State of Qin would not only not be able to take down the Yiqu, but would also be weakened. ”
Zhang Yi nodded, unable to deny that the situation that Zhu Liji said was very likely to happen.
It's just that Zhang Yi at this time, since the death of the first king and the accession of the new king to the throne, suddenly found that he was no longer young. As his body became more and more old, especially after the failure of the first king to seek speed last time, the aggressiveness of his youth made Qin State's desire to quickly dominate all countries suddenly fade a lot.
Now, between attacking Wei and then competing with Qi Chu for hegemony, and first stabilizing the rear and obtaining the manpower and material resources of Yiqu, he is more inclined to the latter.
What's more, the cavalry problems that have occurred on the Zhao side in the past few years have made Zhang Yi a little worried, so Zhang Yi wants the pasture herdsmen and war horses of Yiqu Country even more.
Only when you are solid and calm can you go far.
Thinking about it, Zhang Yi opened his mouth to refute Zhu Li and said: "General, the strength of the Wei State is not weak, especially the Wei State after a few years of recuperation, the strength has recovered. It is true that in the face of the siege of various countries, it is difficult for Wei to resist, and it is because of this that we cannot send troops to attack Wei, so that Wei can mobilize more troops to resist Wei in various countries, so that Wei can resist for a longer period of time, leaving enough time for our Qin State to attack Yiqu. ”
"Not really." Zhu Lijian did not approve of Zhang Yi's proposal, and his voice became more and more high-pitched, refuting Zhang Yi and said: "Xiangguo, I think that Xiangguo is not divided into priority and priority, Yiqu Country is just a remote and small country isolated from other countries, and the destruction of Yiqu Country is to compete with other countries. Now, the opportunity is in front of him, but Xiangguo gave up this opportunity to attack the poor Yiqu, which is the reversal of priorities.
Moreover, more importantly, the countries of the Kwantung region, especially the two countries of Chu and Wei, are all the legacy of the hegemon, and once the winners and losers are divided, they can easily unite the two countries of Zhao and Han. At that time, if we Qin State want to get out of the customs again, we will face another alliance.
Before, the State of Chu united with the Three Jin Dynasty to blockade the Qin Pass, and my Qin State did not dare to go out of the Guandong for several years, and I was deeply ashamed. Now that Chu and Wei are at war, the countries have temporarily lowered their guard against Qin and are vying to make friends with Qin, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to seize Puyang of Wei and open the way to the east.
Otherwise, once the opportunity is lost, I don't know when the next such good opportunity will be. ”
When Zhang Yi heard this, he immediately turned red-eyed and confronted each other······
"This..."
Qin Wangdang listened to the argument between Zhang Yi and Zhu Liji, and suddenly had a hard time choosing, both sides were opportunities, and it seemed that it was difficult to distinguish the pros and cons.
After a pause, Qin Wangdang interrupted Zhang Yi and Zhu Liji, who were fighting for red necks, and asked Wei Zhang Ganmao on the side, "What do the two virtuous people think?" Should the widow attack Wei first, or attack the Yiqu first? ”
Wei Zhang and Gan Mao glanced at each other, and then Wei Zhang took the lead in speaking: "Great King, the minister thinks that Xiangguo's words are very true, and the strength of Yiqu Country is recovering, and he can't wait any longer. The countries in the east are about to be divided into two factions, and this opportunity is gone, and there will be a next time soon, so the minister thinks that he should attack the Yiqu first. ”
Hearing this, his heart was cold, and he glanced at Wei Zhang, and a chill appeared in his eyes.
This Wei Zhang is Zhang Yi's sworn friend, they are two civil and one martial, and when they join forces, the pressure on him is too great.
On the other side, after Wei Zhang's voice fell, Gan Mao followed: "King, the minister seconded the proposal." ”
Qin Wangdang nodded, three votes to one, and the result was obvious.
"Okay, since that's the case, follow the father's policy."
Zhang Yi and the four of them responded at the same time: "Only." ”
The controversy in the Qin Palace, as the envoy of the Chu State, Jing Li, naturally would not know.
After Jing Li left the Qin Palace, he began to visit the ministers who were friendly with the Chu State and asked them to advise the King of Qin.
For two days in a row, Jing Carp spent time in the rush until the arrival of King Qin's wedding.
On this day, the entire Xianyang City fell into a state of joy, and the festive color in the city seemed to sweep away all the depression of the Qin State in the past few years, and it seemed that the entire Xianyang was full of vitality.
In Qin Wangdang's marriage, Jing Li, as the most important guest of the Qin State, was naturally welcomed by the Qin State with the warmest welcome.
During this period, there were countless toasters, first the King of Qin, then the Qin Prime Minister Zhang Yi, and then the ministers of the Qin State, as well as the envoys of various countries.
And Jing Carp also came to refuse.
The most important thing tonight, that's drinking.
Especially after King Qin left, Zhang Yi had another drink with the envoys of various countries, and after he was sick and did not drink, Jing Li, the most noble person present, became the focus of the scene for a while.
······
The next morning, in the palace outside Xianyang, Jing Carp was still hangover and had not woken up, and in a daze, he heard someone calling.
"Your Majesty... Junshang··· Wake up..."
After a while, Jing Li opened his heavy sleepy eyes, and in a daze, he saw that it was his doorman Ding Guo who was constantly shaking him, and as soon as he took his hand, he got up from the bed with the help of Ding Guo, and after sitting down against the bed rail, he asked with a headache: "What's wrong, why did you call me at this time." ”
Ding Guo naturally knew the current situation of Jing Li, and when he heard Jing Li's inquiry, he immediately replied excitedly: "Your Majesty, something big has happened, a big thing, Zhang Yi, the father of the Prime Minister of Qin and the King of Qin, is dead. ”
"Poof... Ahem, ahem..."
When Jing Carp heard the news, he almost choked to death with his own saliva.
It took a while to regain his strength, he stroked his forehead with his hand, stroked his head with a faint pain, and said angrily: "Besides, did you wake up Benjun just to make this joke with Benjun." ”
Jing Li didn't believe the news in Ding Guo's mouth at all.
A few days ago, Prospect Carp also talked to Zhang Yi in the Qin Palace, Zhang Yi was normal, just yesterday, Jing Li and Zhang Yi had a drink, and Zhang Yi did not have anything wrong.
This is so good, how can he say that he is dead.
