The breeze gradually rose, making a rustling sound, and the hot tea on the desk in the room had already gradually cooled down at this time, and the fragrance of the ancient tea just now was left in the room. The small stove in the distance had just been lit by the servants around it, and the small pot on it made a whining sound as the water boiled.

Tian Ji, who had been silent for a long time, saw that the water in the pot was boiling at this time, so he slowly got up and filled the warm pot placed not far in front of Sun Bin, and then carefully replaced the warm pot in Sun Bin's arms, pressed the thick clothes that Sun Bin was wearing, and said softly: "The climate is warming, but the military advisor must not be careless, pay attention to keeping warm...".

After Sun Bin heard this, he touched his heart and said with a smile: "Bin has always been warm in my heart, how can I care about the cold a little...", before he finished speaking, he coughed loudly.

Seeing this, Tian Ji immediately looked concerned, and quickly poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Sun Bin and said, "Military advisor, don't be able to do it...", and sighed after speaking.

Although Sun Bin was lucky enough to escape Pang Juan's clutches, his body was tortured so badly that the root cause was destroyed, how could he be the same as ordinary people.

Even if King Qi visited famous doctors all over the world and used high-grade medicinal materials to nourish him, this problem of being afraid of cold and dampness could be regarded as completely rooted in his body. Although it is now spring in March and the weather is warm, Sun Bin still has to rely on the hot stove to keep warm and keep away the cold.

The body is weak, but Sun Bin's temper is quite stubborn. If it was before the chaos of the Wei State, Sun Bin might have known that there was still a winding way, but since returning to the Qi State, Sun Bin has completely become as tall and indomitable as a green pine.

I'm afraid it's not that the heart is dead..., alas,... Tian Ji looked at Sun Bin who was coughing constantly, and thought in his heart.

Tian Ji deliberately changed the topic in his heart to break the unhappiness just now, looked at the stove not far away, and the kettle on the desk, so he said with a smile: "Strategist, you said that you, the little brother of Wei Kai, are really a strange person."

In the past, in winter, if the weather was cold, we would wear more clothes, or rely on drinking alcohol to dispel the cold, or burn firewood to ward off the cold, and more often than not, we would have to resist.

I never thought that building such a small stove can not only boil water, hot wine, but also gather fire to ward off the cold, and a bamboo that is usually easy to see, after being filled with hot water, can warm your hands for a long time.

Instead of warming up around the fire, you will be disgraced by the scattered smoke. ”

Touching the hot pot, Sun Bin heard this, and said with a smile: "This is Wei Kai's power, for the same thing, he can always have different ideas from ordinary people, and often he is still on the right side."

Alas, I have had a faint feeling many times that he seems to have the ability to predict the future, and this is very terrible."

When Tian Ji heard this, he immediately pointed at Sun Bin and laughed: "Military advisor, you are talking big again, how can there be an unknown prophet in this world?" It's just a lie to me."

After Sun Bin finished speaking, after hearing Tian Ji's rebuttal, he also felt ridiculous in his heart. Yes, how can there be an unknown prophet in this world? If there were, Wei Kai would not have been so miserable in exile.

So he said with an embarrassed face: "Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue."

When Tian Ji heard this, he didn't continue to refute, got up and poured the hot tea in front of Sun Bin for him, and then smiled, the room was filled with a happy atmosphere, and he no longer looked embarrassed just now.

After a long time, Tian Ji put away the smile on his face, and then suddenly asked Sun Bin: "Strategist, do you think this alliance can be successful?" ”

Sun Bin, who was still covering up his vain words just now, immediately put away the expression on his face when he heard Tian Ji's sudden question, glanced at Tian Ji in front of him seriously, and said in a deep voice: "General, why do you say this?" Isn't it already the consensus of the people of the world to conquer Qin? ”

As soon as Sun Bin's voice fell, Tian Ji also scratched his head at this time, and he was very strange why he had such a ridiculous idea just now, and now the King of Qi also plans to participate in this alliance, so who dares not to participate in the countries? If the alliance is refused, it is unclear that it is the enemy of the two countries of Wei and Qi, which are the strongest today.

Tian Ji smiled awkwardly: "I'll just say it casually, don't take it seriously."

"Oh?".

Tian Ji, who was going to drink tea to cover up his embarrassment, looked up, and saw that Sun Bin's face changed slightly because of what he had just said, and he looked contemplative, as if he agreed with what he had just said, so he immediately sent down the teacup in his hand and said with a surprised face: "Strategist, do you think that this Daliang Alliance will not succeed?" ”

Glancing at Tian Ji in front of him, Sun Bin slowly retracted his thoughts and said slowly: "Sun Bin also listened to the general's words just now, and he had a premonition about this alliance."

Tian Ji immediately frowned and asked, "What is the high opinion of the military advisor?" ”。

Sun Bin's talent, Tian Ji knows and admires it very well, this is a rare talent who is well versed in the art of war and has a big mind. Otherwise, Tian Ji, as a person from the Qi State Office, would have condescended to be a guest of Sun Bin and even introduced him to the King of Qi.

"The Alliance of Great Liang, did the general find out that there was anyone missing?"

When Tian Ji heard this, he immediately recalled the edict of the alliance of the Wei State, and suddenly raised his head and said, "Yan State."

"Yes, it's Yan Guo."

"But even if there is no Yan State, there are still five princes in the Great Liang of the Alliance, and it is not that the people of the Qin State can resist."

After listening to what Tian Ji said, Sun Bin said with a smile: "Since ancient times, the covenant has always focused on subduing people with force, but convincing people with reason.

Thinking that there was no way at the beginning, the princes of the Quartet were miserable, and King Wu of Zhou was virtuous and virtuous, and the princes were convinced, so they allied with Xiqi one after another, and secretly opposed Chaoge, hoping that King Wu of Zhou would lead the princes to attack merchants, but King Wu of Zhou refused to send troops because he did not get the mandate of heaven.

It wasn't until Emperor Ji killed Xiangguo Bigan and imprisoned Jizi, and the musicians of the Yin Dynasty fled to Xiqi with musical instruments, that King Wu of Zhou sent troops and led the princes to defeat the million-strong division of Jixuan in the first battle of Muye, which is the reason why the division is famous.

Now that Wei had just reneged on its alliance to attack Korea not long ago, and now it had privately gathered the princes in Daliang and informed the countries in an arrogant and arrogant tone that it intended to attack the Qin State, which was also a prince of the Zhou royal family.

And the reason why no one opposes it now is because the alliance of the five kingdoms propagated by the king of Wei has made the people of the world afraid, and the Qin state is not accepted by the six states of Shandong, and is regarded as a barbarian in the West like Rong Hydroxy."

As soon as the words fell, Tian Ji said loudly: "But what does this have to do with Yan Guo?" ”

"General, haven't you forgotten the ancestors of Yan Kingdom?"

Ancestors of the Yan Kingdom? When Tian Ji heard Sun Bin's words, his mind suddenly became a mess, so he got up and saluted: "Tian Ji is stupid, and I hope that the military teacher will say it directly." After all, can the alliance be successful, and what does this have to do with the ancestors of the Yan Kingdom?

"The ancestor of Yan was the Zhao Gong of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and he was the most upright vassal state surnamed Ji among the six kingdoms of Shandong, which can be described as noble in blood, and he has always looked down on other vassal states in Shandong.

Even if the Yan Kingdom was poor and weak, living far away in the cold north, there were no ambitious monarchs in the past dynasties, so the Yan Kingdom did not expand for hundreds of years, and rested on its laurels for a hundred years.

But now that the power of the royal family of Zhou Tianzi is gradually declining, the Yan Kingdom, as a sect, is still heartbroken for the Ji dynasty, regardless of the five elements of yin and yang, and deliberately changed the fire virtue handed down by the ancestors to the water virtue, and wants to use the principle that things must be the opposite, to promote the great prosperity of the fire virtue of the Zhou Dynasty.

What's even more terrifying is that the current King Yan is one of the most unruly, the national strength of the Yan Kingdom is becoming poorer and poorer, but the King of Yan does not step up the development of the national strength, and rubs the momentum everywhere, starts the war in vain, and shows his majesty.

General, you said that if the Wei State summoned the alliance of the people, but the Yan State was left alone. If the old Yan King knew, what would you do? ”

After listening to Sun Bin's analysis, Tian Ji had some understanding in his heart, so he immediately replied with a smile: "That's still pointing to the heavens and scolding the mother, so that the ancestors of the King of Wei look good... Hahaha

But the Yan Kingdom and the Wei Kingdom are far apart, and I estimate that the Yan King can only be in a hurry and watch the alliance of other vassal states divide the meat and eat."

When Sun Bin heard this, he shook his head slightly, and then said firmly: "No, King Yan won't just be in a hurry. When King Yan learned of this, I expected that he would be annoyed and angry, and then send an army to attack the Kingdom of Qi or Zhao.

To be precise, I estimate that Yan Guo is going to crusade against my Qi State this time."

When Tian Ji heard this, he was immediately shocked and said: "This Wei Wang Lao'er, the evil he created, why does this Yan Kingdom want to find my Qi Kingdom to vent his anger?" ”

"General, don't you forget that the Qi State also participated in the alliance, to be precise, all the countries participating in the alliance are the objects of King Yan's anger."

When Tian Ji heard this, he hurriedly said, "Then Yan Wang Mo is not crazy?" To be the enemy of other vassal states? ”

"Otherwise, the current King Yan would not be the most unruly. Of course, you can't blame the King of Yan, if you want to blame the arrogant and unreasonable King Wei.

Crusading against the Qin State, but only falling behind the Yan State, isn't that telling the countries that the Qin State is a barbarian, and the Yan State is just a slightly better barbarian, and the countries are ashamed to be with it.

Imagine if the Wei State summoned the princes, but only the Qi State was defeated, would the general be able to bear it? This time, whether Wei Guo intentionally or unintentionally fell into the Yan Kingdom, it is inevitable that King Yan will die.

As for why Qi State? The country of Qi is powerful, the country of Zhao is small, and the crusade against the country of Qi can shock the world even more, and show the prestige of King Yan. ”

When Tian Ji heard Sun Bin finish speaking, he immediately got up and said, "Strategist, I will enter the palace immediately now, report to the king, and let the king pay attention to the affairs of the north."

Alas, no matter how weak the Yan Kingdom is, it is also a big country. When the State of Qi led its troops to attack the State of Qin, if the whole country attacked, even if the State of Qi was fine, it would suffer a big loss.

Looking at Tian Ji, who was leaving in a hurry, Sun Bin suddenly became more convinced of his guess just now.

Now that the Yan State is in trouble, Qi Zhao will not dare to move, and Korea has long been defeated by the Wei State, and participating in the alliance is only a name, and the Chu State in the south has always watched the battle of the princes of the Central Plains from a distance across the river, and then waited for an opportunity to make profits.

That is, this huge alliance, I am afraid that there will only be the king of Wei alone. Is this destiny? Sun Bin suddenly remembered what Wei Kai said when he left.

"Mr. Sun Bin, do you believe that this conflicting nation, and now the poor and weak Qin State is the last destiny?" , Now that Sun Bin remembered Wei Kai's words, he suddenly had a different understanding. If it weren't for that, how could the Qin State be spared from the Five Kingdoms' attack on Qin this time.
