Chapter 186: Chu De Han Qi and Yue fought in Guangling
I only heard Wei Si questioning the Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty:
"As the Son of Heaven and the Auxiliary Monarch of the Son of Heaven, a generation of Zhou Dukes, you do not practice the benevolence of the Son of Zhou, assist the Son of Heaven well, inherit the will of your ancestors, but you lose virtue and deceive the people, ignore the Son of Heaven, and after succeeding to the throne, you have repeatedly had wars with the Eastern Zhou Duke who is also the Son of Heaven and the Auxiliary Monarch, what else do you have to say?"
The Duke of the Western Zhou Dynasty knelt on the ground at this time, looking panicked and not daring to speak at all.
Wei Si continued:
"Since you have nothing to say, have you pleaded guilty?"
Himeko replied:
"King Wei, my concubine knows that he is guilty, and he faces the Son of Heaven and King Wei without a word, and asks King Wei to spare my concubine's life, as long as King Wei spares my concubine's life, my concubine will definitely serve the Great Wei and the King of Wei wholeheartedly in the future!"
Wei Si smiled lightly:
"Really? The widow remembers that you seemed to have promised King Han this to the Duke of Western Zhou, but you didn't do it either, right? How do you convince the widow of you? ”
Ji Zigong hurriedly said:
"Only King Wei can let me go Ji Zigong, I am willing to dedicate half of my land and three hundred carts of grain and grass to your country and serve you, King Wei!"
Wei Si said contemptuously:
"Are you a widow and an easy beggar? Before the widow wanted to borrow food from you, not only did you not borrow it, but also wanted to perfunctory the widow, resulting in the widow had no choice but to order someone to crusade against you, and now you know your mistake too late, too late! ”
Ji Zigong said again at this time:
"If I can help King Wei get the artifacts of King Zhou, can you let me go?"
Wei Si was a little moved when he heard Ji Zigong's words, after all, the artifacts of the Zhou Wangcheng were all collected by the first Zhou Gongdan of the Zhou Dynasty from the extinct Yin Shang and the world, and they were naturally the most exquisite things in the world, and there were also a large number of inscription artifacts.
Thinking of this, Wei Si said to Ji Zigong:
"Those heavy weapons in the royal city belong to the son of Zhou Tianzi, everyone in the world knows, and your Western Zhou Kingdom is just for safekeeping, if you hand over the heavy weapons of the royal city to the widow, won't the widow become the target of the public?"
Himeko hurriedly replied:
"I have a way to help the king get the heavy weapons in the royal city, as long as you let us go of the Western Zhou Kingdom!"
Wei Si originally wanted to destroy the Western Zhou Kingdom, but now that he thinks about it, it is indeed not the time, if he gets these Zhou Chamber heavy weapons, it is more important, so he agreed to the Western Zhou Dynasty, just asked for half of the land and all the grain stocks of the Western Zhou Kingdom, and then waited for him to help him get the royal city artifacts.
Sinzheng, South Korea.
King Han also got the news that King Wei had broken Henan City, the capital of the Western Zhou Kingdom, and was also surprised, and after discussing it with the Prime Minister Gong Zhong, he hurriedly sent him to investigate the situation.
At this time, Chu Ling Yin Zhaoyang also came to see him again, and King Han had to entertain him at a banquet in the palace.
After some music and dancing, Zhaoyang put down his wine glass and first said:
"I don't know what King Han, what do you think of King Wei's withdrawal of troops to break the Western Zhou Kingdom?"
King Han said with a smile:
"The Western Zhou Kingdom and the Eastern Zhou Kingdom should have perished a long time ago, and the current Western Zhou Dynasty is a king, and the country has been broken by the King of Wei...... That's good! ”
Zhaoyang also laughed:
"Haha...... Haha, huh? The princes of the world know that the Western Zhou Kingdom and the Eastern Zhou Kingdom are both under the protection of your country, and now that the Wei State has openly destroyed the Western Zhou Kingdom, can you sit idly by, King Han? ”
King Han smiled knowingly:
"Everyone in the world knows that the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty are the two auxiliary states of the Zhou Emperor, so how can they be said to be the protectorate of my Korea? Moreover, although the King of Wei broke through the Western Zhou Kingdom, he did not announce that he would occupy the Western Zhou Kingdom, and it seems that he also took into account Zhou Tianzi, so let's wait for the news! ”
Zhaoyang changed the subject:
"Okay, let's not mention those, let's talk about your country's weapons, right?"
King Han immediately said:
"The matter of this weapon, the widow has already decided to sell the medicine to Yan Kingdom, so why don't you wait two years later, and after we recast the next batch in Korea, we will sell it to your country?"
Zhaoyang smiled lightly:
"King Han, are you perfunctory to our Chu State? I have inquired privately, this batch of weapons in your country was originally going to be sold to the Yue country, and your country knows that our Chu country and the Yue country are very unfriendly, and you still sell weapons to the Yue country, this is a bit excessive, right? And now that the Yue State and the Qi State are at war, do you want to sell weapons to the Yue State so that they can be used against our Chu State and the Qi State? ”
Han Wang was a little angry:
"Zhao Gong, are you deliberately slandering us Korea at this time?"
Zhaoyang replied:
"But King Han, you have done such a thing, and you are still afraid that others will know?"
King Han snorted lightly:
"Then Zhaoyang, let's be straightforward, what do you want in Chu State?"
Zhaoyang also knew that King Han was angry, but he was not afraid:
"I, Zhaoyang, are here to buy weapons from King Han, if these weapons are sold to Yan State, my Chu State can't control it, but if they are sold to Yue State, our Chu State can't accept it, and I believe that Qi State knows about it, and will definitely not ignore this matter, I hope King Han, you can think about it carefully!"
Han Wang slapped the table angrily:
"Zhaoyang, are you threatening the widow?"
Zhaoyang also got up and showed no weakness:
"Threaten you King Han, I Zhaoyang don't dare, I Zhaoyang just want to advise King Han to you, and I will leave after speaking."
King Han scolded Zhaoyang and Queen Chu a few times, then sat back and ordered the music and dance to sound again, so as to dissipate his anger.
After a few glasses of wine, after calming down for a while, King Han asked the guard:
"Now Zhaoyang has gone back to Chu State?"
The guard replied:
"Zhaoyang hasn't been out for a long time, and he shouldn't have been out of the city yet!"
汉王 says:
"Then hurry up and invite him back, please come back!"
King Han was naturally afraid of offending the two big countries of Qi and Chu at once, after all, he was not stupid, so he also regretted it.
After a while, Zhaoyang was invited back again.
Zhaoyang asked King Han:
"King Han, are you going to agree to sell weapons to our Chu State?"
Han Wang replied:
"Yes, but the widow has already promised to sell these weapons to Yue Guo!"
Zhaoyang said with a smile:
"King Han, you have finally told the truth, as long as your country is willing to deliver this batch of weapons sold to the Yue Kingdom to our Chu State first, our Chu State is willing to exchange thirty carts of pearls and jade!"
King Han immediately said again:
"Okay, but the widow thinks that the relationship between our Han and Chu should be further developed, I don't know what do you think of Zhaogong?"
Zhaoyang looked at King Han and smiled:
"Could it be King Han, do you want to marry our Chu State?"
Han Wang replied:
"Yes, I wonder if your country is willing?"
Zhaoyang replied:
"This is a good thing, when I go back to report to our queen, our king will definitely send a princess to your country as soon as possible, and your country will wait for it then!"
Chu Xiang Zhaoyang came to buy these weapons from King Han because Chu now saw the opportunity for Qin and Wei to fight, so he wanted to go back and regroup his troops and horses, and take advantage of this opportunity to revive Chu again.
Yue Guo Guangling.
King Qi's 200,000 troops and Yue's 180,000 troops are facing each other five miles outside the city, which is also the most important decisive battle between the two countries after more than a year of war.
The king of Qi thought that the Yue State was vulnerable, and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to occupy the Huaisi of the Chu State, and by the way, he also occupied the land of the Yue State, but he knew that the Yue State actually made peace with its great enemy Chu State in private, and instead came to confront his own Qi State.
Qi and Yue have experienced more than 20 wars for more than a year, although Qi has repeatedly won in the front, but after each victory, Yue has always used the terrain of nearby rivers and lakes to fight back, so every time it can not get big results, resulting in Qi can not withdraw its troops and leave, let alone participate in the war with Yan and Wei.
Therefore, Qi is now on defense against Yan, and it has always been friendly with Wei, which also gives Wei no need to worry about the threat of invasion by Qi because of the war with Qin, Yiqu and Hedong rebels.
The king of Qi didn't want to be caught in the endless war of the Yue Kingdom for a long time, so he and the Yue Kingdom made an appointment to fight in this Guangling.
The same is true of the Yue King Wujiang, after all, this endless war has made the Yue Kingdom not only unable to produce, but even the people in the territory have complained, and the land of the King of Qi is the same as the terrain is conducive to his own Yue soldiers, so the King of Yue also responded to the appointment of the King of Qi to fight, and concentrated his troops to fight to the death with Qi.
I saw Qi Wang Tian Bijiang standing on the chariot on one side, and first ordered someone to shout to Yue Wang Wujiang:
"In today's battle, our Qi country doesn't want to see your country flee without a fight like before, I hope that the soldiers of your country will be like a man, and have a good fight with our Qi country!"
King Yue Wujiang also hurriedly ordered someone to respond to King Qi:
"Who decreed that one cannot flee in war? Didn't you Qi escape the horse tomb with Wei back then? ”
Qi Wangtian laughed and ordered someone to respond:
"I don't know which battle of Maling you're talking about?"
The Boundless Man shouted:
"Of course, it was your Qi Guotian Pan and the Wei State Prince Shen that battle of Maling, if it wasn't for your Qi army to escape and lure the Wei army, how could you defeat the Wei army?"
Tian Pijiang also laughed and sent someone to reply:
"That's called stratagem, what do you more barbarians know?"
Wujiang also laughed, and ordered someone to respond to King Qi:
"Really? Strategy, I heard that a few years ago in the Battle of Maling, King Qi, you used the strategy of the Three Kingdoms to pursue the Wei army, but I didn't expect that not only your country's soldiers and horses were wiped out in Maling Road, but even the King of Qi was a prisoner of Wei, I don't know how it felt like to be a prisoner in Daliang at that time, King Qi? ”
When Tian Bijiang heard Wujiang mention his humiliation, he couldn't hold his face, and then he was furious and shouted in the direction of the Vietnamese army:
"Don't talk nonsense, you barbarians, today is the day of your demise, and the widow will let King Yue be like your first king Goujian, and be the horseman of my Qi country!"
Wujiang is not in a hurry, and orders someone to respond:
"What else do you have besides arrogance, King Qi? If you have the ability, you will send troops first? ”
The king of Qi was provoked by the king of Yue, and first ordered all the troops to charge towards the Yue army.
The Vietnamese army did not have the slightest hint of timidity, and clashed with the Qi soldiers who rushed over.
The sound of shouting and killing and fighting in an instant shook the sky, and even the wild ducks and swans who were drinking in the swamp nearby fled one after another, for fear of being hurt by this fierce confrontation.
