Chapter 261: What a big pit

When King Han heard Shen Cha's explanation, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "Yes, now the situation of Yiqu State is still unclear, if Yiqu State is vulnerable to the Qin State's partial division, and needs to bow down and surrender to Qin State, then even if Yiqu State and Qin Army unite, then our five countries are not afraid." ”

Xiong Huai responded: "Yes, the situation has not yet reached that point, maybe now the King of Yiqu has regrouped, and it is unknown to fight the Qin army led by Zhu Liji." ”

"And even if the Yiqu State is defeated by the Qin State and declares itself a vassal to the Qin State, then it will inevitably be a great loss of vitality, killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, and the losses of the Qin army will definitely not be much lighter."

"When the army in the northwest of Qin State recovers, maybe our coalition army has already made a breakthrough in the river."

King Han echoed: "What the alliance leader said is extremely true, and the widow deeply agrees. ”

Seeing that Chu and Han were still not giving up, King Qi smiled and said, "The alliance leader is very much, it is a widow who has lost his temper. ”

Soon after, the results of the battle in Yunyang were officially announced.

During the battle, the 150,000 Yiqu army was ambushed by the Qin army, the Qin army beheaded nearly 20,000 people, captured more than 10,000, and the rest of the Yiqu army broke and fled north.

This news immediately lifted the spirits of the five countries.

The strength of the Yiqu State is still there, and it can also deal with the Qin State.

A day later, the king of Wei came to Luoyi and reiterated to the three kingdoms of Chu, Qi and Han that Wei would not back down, so as to encourage Qi and Chu to continue the siege of Qin.

Then, Zhao Cheng, the envoy of King Zhao, arrived in Luoyi and showed the attitude of Zhao to fight to the death.

In order to strengthen the confidence of various countries, King Zhao did not hesitate to go to the front line in person, and went to Lin from the rear to boost morale.

The kings of Wei and Zhao had to do so.

The three Jin all had the same fear, that is, the revenge of the Qin State.

After the failure of the Five Kingdoms to attack Qin last time, the alliance suddenly broke down, and they fought separately, and as a result, all the three Jin were retaliated against by the Qin State, and the losses were not small.

If you plant twice in the same place, you will have no shame in the world again.

Hearing Zhao Cheng say that King Zhao himself had arrived in Lin Di, King Wei and King Han suddenly perked up.

King Wei and King Han glanced at each other, and they all saw the eagerness in each other's eyes.

Don't let King Zhao specialize in beauty, you have to take action.

The two nodded to each other.

Then, King Wei cleared his throat and said solemnly: "Alliance leader, now Zhang Yi has fallen out with King Qin, saying that he is not sick, so if we work harder, then we can achieve our goal and force Qin to hand over Zhang Yi, so the widow decided to ······"

"Report ······"

Before the King of Wei could finish his words, he heard a messenger running in quickly.

King Wei was furious, and then found out that it was his messenger who had arrived, and immediately turned his mouth and asked, "What happened?" ”

When the messenger saw the King of Wei's inquiry, he immediately replied:

"King, Yiqu State Urgent Report, not long ago, the King of Yiqu gathered the rest of more than 80,000 people, not far from Xunyi was caught up by the 50,000 Qin army led by Yuliji, and then Yuli rushed to attack the Yiqu King, the Yiqu King was defeated, and was defeated again, and the Yiqu King has continued to flee to the Yiqu capital in the north with the remnants."

"Now that the army has surrounded Yiqu Guoxunyi, General Xiwu summoned the king and asked the king to prepare early."

Everyone: "······"

King Wei: "······"

King Wei was frightened, frightened and happy, and let out a long breath: "Okay, the widow knows, this news is very important to the widow, and the reward is ten gold!" ”

"King Xie."

After the Messenger departed joyfully.

King Wei wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and remained silent by default.

After these two defeats, Yiqu Kingdom was greatly injured.

Depending on the situation, if it weren't for the lack of troops in Zhuli, I'm afraid that the city of King Yiqu would have been besieged by now.

Different from everyone's contemplative countermeasures, King Qi smiled faintly and said, "King Wei, I don't know what you are going to do?" ”

When the King of Wei saw that the King of Qi did not open which pot to mention, he was annoyed in his heart, and his face remained unchanged: "The widow just wanted to say that the widow decided to increase troops to Fenyin..."

King Wei originally wanted to say that he would increase his troops by 50,000, but when he caught a glimpse of King Qi's expectant gaze, his heart sank, and Wei still had to guard against Qi, so he thought about it and immediately changed his words: "The widow decided to increase his troops to Fenyin by 20,000 to put pressure on Qin. ”

“······”

20,000 troops...

What can this do? Now Fenyin has gathered more than 300,000 troops, and adding 20,000 will have no effect.

Although he thought so in his heart, in order to take care of King Wei's face, Xiong Huai immediately said: "Okay, King Wei has a heart, with these 20,000 reinforcements, the confidence of the widow has increased greatly!" ”

After appeasing the King of Wei, Xiong Huai fell into deep thought.

The siege of the Qin State has no possibility of success until now, and I am afraid that even the most basic purpose of intimidating the King of Qin will be difficult to achieve, but the war cannot end like this.

If the countries withdraw their troops now, then when the Qin State sends troops to retaliate next, will the Chu State send troops to rescue again, so that the food consumed again and again is a big pit, if the troops are not sent to rescue, then the alliance may be in danger of rupture.

At that time, if the Three Jin Dynasty are beggar-thy-neighbors and compete for Qin, then the Chu State will lose a lot, and the Zhao State will be fine, and if it loses Han and Wei, the Chu State will be extremely passive.

Therefore, instead of withdrawing from the army, it is better to take advantage of the fact that the countries are still attacking the Qin State, especially when the Qi State is still attacking the Qin State, maintain the status quo, and wear down with the Qin State to see who can't hold on first.

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai said: "Although the King of Yiqu was defeated for a while, but the field duel was lost, the casualties were no more than two percent, and the strength of the Yiqu King was still less than that of the King of Yiqu. ”

King Wei nodded and said: "What the alliance leader said is extremely true, if this is the case, I am afraid that the casualties of King Yiqu's army will not exceed one percent, although the morale has been lost, but if you want to contain the army led by Yu Liji, it is still possible." ”

King Han echoed: "That's right, the situation hasn't deteriorated yet, and we still have an advantage in the face of Qin." ”

When King Qi saw that the three of them were singing and harmonizing, he deceived himself and was silent.

After two heavy defeats, Yiqu has been out of this big war and has been unable to contain the disease.

When he led his troops eastward, the farce of a million-strong army besieging Qin would end again.

Xiong Huai saw that King Wei and King Han were still cheering each other up, obviously lacking confidence, while King Qi was silent on the side, his eyes were deep, and he made eye contact with the ministers of Qi State, looking preoccupied.

was taken aback, could it be that Qi Guo already had a different heart?

Xiong Huai thought about it carefully, indeed, if the current actions of various countries to attack Qin failed, then it would be the best result for Qi Guo.

The State of Qi only marched with arms, on the one hand to solve its own crisis, and on the other hand, it wanted Zhao and Wei to sell well, which can be said to be very fruitful.

If Qin retaliates and Qi comes to the rescue, then Qi's current very unfavorable diplomatic situation will be reversed.

No.

The pupils of Xiong Huai's eyes shrank slightly, perhaps, the Qi State can also secretly communicate with the Qin State, and then come to the double reed, and use the excuse of mediation to put pressure on the Zhao State or the Wei State, forcing them to fall to Qin Qi.

Then, the situation of Chu State's dominance will be dismantled.

It's just unbearable.
