Chapter 259: Yiqu

Yunyang City in the north of the Qin State.

When he received the news that King Qin had accused Zhang Yi at the court meeting, and then Zhang Yi couldn't tell him that he was sick, his face immediately changed greatly.

Then, there was a dilemma.

He wanted to leave Yunyang and return to Xianyang immediately, but he was worried that after he left the northern border, Yiqu Guo saw that he was leaving, and thought that he could take advantage of the opportunity to start an army to attack Qin, and the north of Qin would be completely paralyzed.

But if he still guards the north, the situation in Xianyang is too worrying.

Qin Wangdang was dissatisfied with Zhang Yi's thoughts, and he could see it clearly, but even if he wanted to target Zhang Yi, it would depend on the time, and now that the Qin Kingdom was on fire, it was really not the time.

He looked at the north and sighed from time to time.

Now he is not worried about the siege of other countries, the east can be said to be impregnable, only the righteous canal in the north is what worries him.

Not only is there no danger to defend, but the Yunyang City where he stayed was the city in the hinterland of the Yiqu Kingdom a few years ago, not only this city, but also the more than 20 cities behind him, all of which were snatched from Yiqu by the Qin State a few years ago, and the dozen or so cities further south were also the cities of the Yiqu Kingdom a few decades ago.

This large piece of land in the north was all the land of Yiqu Country before.

Although the Qin law has been in use here for several years, the Qin law is harsh and incompatible with the loose Yiqu style.

The people here still retain the customs of this Yiqu country.

Once the Yiqu is attacked, and his strength is insufficient, he will definitely make a fuss, and maybe the entire north will repeat it.

Just when the disease was tangled, a soldier came to report: "General, there is a guest who claims to be the general's deceased, and he has come to relieve the general's worries." ”

"The deceased? Worry free! He was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who is the person who came, and has you ever reported your name?" ”

The soldier shook his head and said, "Back to the general, the man said that the general would know at a glance." ”

"Huh?" Yu Li was stunned for a moment, and then cleaned up his mood and said: "Okay, let him in, I want to see who is so understanding." ”

Soon, Feng Xi walked in quickly and arched his hand: "General, I am ordered to come and relieve the general's worries!" ”

"Feng Xi!" I was stunned.

Feng Xi smiled and said: "It is under you that you have a letter for me to hand over to the general." ”

"Letter?" Zhu Liji took the silk book from Feng Xi's hand, and then unfolded it to take a look, and soon, a smile appeared on his face: "Okay, Xiangguo has a good plan." ”

Finish watching.

Zhu Li put away the silk book, kicked over the wooden case next to him, and then drew his sword to cut the wooden case into several pieces, and said angrily: "Zhang Yi should die, King Qin is young and ignorant, doesn't he Zhang Yi also know current affairs?" Now that the Qin State is in crisis, he Zhang Yi even dares to play petty, so he will return to Xianyang and settle accounts with him. ”

After speaking, he left the city lord's mansion angrily with some soldiers and walked quickly to the barracks.

Soon after, a group of hundreds of people left the city and disappeared into the south.

······

Yiqu country was originally a branch of the Rong people, living in Guanzhong for generations, when the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Yiqu people surrendered to the Zhou room and were vassals of the Zhou people.

The Western Zhou Dynasty perished, Guanzhong was in turmoil, and then King Ping moved eastward. When leaving Guanzhong, the Zhou Chamber gave Guanzhong to the Qin State, and at the same time, the Yiqu State, which had been transformed into the Central Plains, became independent and established the Yiqu State.

The Yiqu State and the Qin State were founded almost at the same time, and then rose in the north and south of Guanzhong successively, and the two countries fought each other, each with its own victory and defeat.

However, since the Qin State went through the Shang Dynasty reform, the national strength has increased greatly, and the Yiqu State has been defeated by the Qin State, and most of the land has been lost, and it can only survive.

The Yiqu Kingdom had been quiet for seven years, but it was interrupted by two unexpected visitors not long ago, and Gongsun Yan and the envoy Qiu Ye of the Zhao State brought the news that the Kwantung countries would once again ally attack Qin, which made the Yiqu Kingdom rejoice.

Gongsun Yan and Qiu Liquid came to Yiqu for the same purpose, in order to persuade the king of Yiqu to raise an army with other countries to attack Qin.

To tell the truth, King Yiqu was moved.

This is a rare and good opportunity, the new monarch of Qin State ascended the throne, and all countries rose up to attack Qin, if you miss this time, I am afraid that there will never be such a good opportunity in the future.

It's just that in the direction of sending troops, King Yiqu fell into contradictions.

The fathers and elders of the state demanded an attack to the south, regain the lost territory, and rescue the clansmen oppressed by the Qin state.

However, Gongsun Yan and Qiu Ye both suggested that the king of Yiqu attack Shangjun and receive the Zhao army into Shangjun, so that Yiqu could connect with other countries and avoid falling into an isolated and helpless situation.

To the south, with the support of the clansmen who had fallen into the Qin State, it could be said that the result was twice the result with half the effort, and in the case of the Qin State fighting on multiple fronts, it was very easy.

To the east, if the support of the Zhao State is obtained and the Yiqu State is prevented from facing the Qin State alone, then it will be a great improvement in strategy.

In the entanglement, Zhu Li came to Yunyang City.

Well, those who supported the attack to the south were suddenly dumbfounded, and those who supported the attack to the east suddenly overwhelmed the other side.

Gongsun Yan and the others had not yet breathed a sigh of relief, and news came from the Qin State again.

"Not long ago, there was a change in Xianyang, and the King of Qin publicly accused Zhang Yi in the government, and then Zhang Yi confessed, and now he is behind closed doors."

"News came from our clansmen in Yunyang City, and after learning the news, he was furious and had returned to Xianyang."

Gongsun Yan and Qiu Ye glanced at each other, and they both had the urge to scold.

said that he would disturb the government of the Qin State, and the result was successful, but the places that should be chaotic were not chaotic, and the places that should not be chaotic were chaotic.

This...

Then, Gongsun Yan asked, "Great King, has this news been confirmed?" ”

King Yiqu nodded solemnly: "The news is confirmed, our internal response in Yunyang City has been confirmed again and again, after cutting down a wooden case, he left Yunyang City with his personal guards." ”

"Not only that, but in all the cities to the south, we have heard the news that we have found that Zhu Li and his guards are passing by, and they are heading straight for Xianyang."

"Moreover, now all the cities in the south have been under martial law, and their vigilance has been strengthened."

King Yiqu paused, and Yiqu continued: "King, this time the heavens are going to destroy the Qin State!" ”

"The infighting between the Qin State under such circumstances is a great opportunity for us to attack the Qin State."

As he spoke, Yiqu Xiang bowed and said: "And our clansmen who were enslaved by the Qin State have sent news one after another, expressing their willingness to fight for the Yiqu State, just waiting for the king's army to arrive, and they can immediately act as the city's internal response." ”

"Please save the people!"

"Please save your people."

A large voice sounded in the hall, and the minister of Yiqu in the hall instantly knelt for more than half of it.

Gongsun Yan: "······"

Then, he could only guess with the worst result: "King, please listen to me, that Zhang Yi has not only been the prime minister of the Qin State for nearly twenty years, but is also the father of the King of Qin, how could he fall out with the King of Qin so easily, and he also said that he was sick and closed his door." So, this is a trap, a trap specifically for the country of Yiqu. ”

Qiu Liquid immediately came to his senses, and then immediately echoed: "King, the rhino head's words are reasonable. ”

King Yiqu: "This..."

Seeing this, Yiqu immediately spoke: "King, Zhu Lijian has really left Yunyang, how can this be a trap." ”

"Moreover, the king, attacking the south, this is a very small price, you can recover a lot of lost land, if you attack Shangjun, the minister is worried that Shangjun is too small, and then the three kingdoms of Qin, Zhao and Yiqu will snatch Shangjun, I'm afraid the gains outweigh the losses."

King Yiqu: "···"

Gongsun Yan said: "The king, for the sake of the king, it is better to attack the east, as for the reason, that is, Yiqu is small and Qin is big, if there is no support from all countries, even if Yiqu recovers the lost territory now, when the armies of all countries retreat, Qin retreats, and the Qin State retreats and attacks Yiqu with all its might, so can the king hold those captured cities?" ”

Yiqu Xiang immediately retorted: "Great King, attacking the south directly threatens Xianyang, the capital of Qin, this is exactly what the Art of War says about encircling Wei and saving Zhao, not only to support Zhao, but also to support the other four countries." ”

“···”

King Yiqu coughed lightly, and after everyone looked at it, he said: "Immediately gather troops and prepare to attack the Qin State, as for the direction of the attack, Gu plans to find out whether Zhu Liji really returns to Xianyang and then make a decision." ”

"If Liji returns to Xianyang, then attack Yunyang City, and if Liji does not arrive in Xianyang for a long time, then attack Shangjun."
