Chapter 362: Cai Ze's Diplomatic Strategy (Third Update)

The reason why he was able to say these words was not that Qin Wangji was afraid of Zhao Dan and Zhao Guo.

Now the situation of hegemony between the seven heroes of the Warring States Period, anyone with a little insight can see that Zhao definitely has more allies.

There are many people, and there is great strength in many people. If the previous Qin Wangji didn't know, then the current Qin Wangji definitely knew.

After all, judging from the current situation, it is Qin Wei against Zhao, Chu and Han Three Kingdoms Alliance, plus now a Qi State may also be on the same front as Zhao State, isn't this still the same reproduction of the Qin State's two-to-four pit situation during the Battle of Hedong County?

Anyway, Qin Wangji no longer wants to play such a disadvantageous game in such a aggrieved situation.

Cai Ze smiled and said to Qin Wangji: "Don't worry, the king, in fact, in the eyes of the minister, this ally of Great Qin may not be just one Wei State. ”

"Oh?" Qin Wangji's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly opened his mouth and urged: "Gang Chengjun, is there any other country that can join forces with the widows?" ”

To be honest, if it was before the Battle of Changping or even the Battle of Hedong, Qin Wangji would not have been so out of shape when he heard this kind of news.

But after being defeated at the feet of Zhao Guo and Zhao Dan twice in a row, Qin Wangji's mentality has inevitably undergone some changes, and these changes that even Qin Wangji himself is not aware of are reflected in reality, and they have become what they are today.

Qin Wangji was really eager to defeat the Zhao State, or rather, he was very eager to defeat the overlord Zhao State under Zhao Dan's rule.

Cai Ze said: "Great King, in the opinion of the minister, Korea may also become an ally of Great Qin. ”

"South Korea?" Qin Wangji's brows furrowed again.

This is obviously another name that makes Qin Wangji very unhappy.

You must know that in the past few decades, South Korea has always been the Qin State, or Bai Qi's RBQ, which has been hung up and beaten by Qin and Bai Qi in 10,000 ways.

It is precisely because of this that in the past ten years, South Korea has begun to learn to be smart, and no longer follows Zhao and Wei but concentrates on following Qin.

But it was also this South Korea, which had been the younger brother of the Qin State for so many years, that at the most critical moment of the Battle of Changping, Yu Yewang gave the Qin State an extremely fatal betrayal outside the city, so that the 50,000 elite Qin troops led by the Qin general Sima Terrier were almost completely annihilated.

This battle of Yewang City can be said to have fundamentally changed the entire Changping battle, so that the balance of victory finally tilted in favor of Zhao State.

Not only that, but South Korea continued to help Zhao in the subsequent Battle of Hedong, and also recaptured the steel town of Yiyang from Qin, which was even worse for Qin.

It can be said that in the hands of Qin Wangji, this Han Wangran and Han are an out-and-out anti-bone boy, a white-eyed wolf!

Therefore, Qin Wangji said very unhappily: "Han Wangran has always been extremely treacherous, and he has no faith in his words, how can a widow believe it?" ”

Cai Ze smiled and said to Qin Wangji: "The king may know about the exchange of Yiyang for Pingyang. ”

Qin Wangji snorted, indicating that he did know.

It's no wonder that Qin Wangji is so unhappy, after all, this Yiyang City was blackmailed back by Zhao Dan from Qin Wangji's hands, and then Zhao Dan changed hands and exchanged benefits with Han Wangran, how could this make Qin Wangji happy?

Cai Zedao: "The minister thinks that the key to the success of the Lianheng with South Korea lies in the matter of Yiyang changing Pingyang." ”

Qin Wangji said: "Why? ”

Cai Ze said: "King, whether it is Yiyang or Pingyang, it is the old capital of South Korea, and it has a very special meaning for Han Wangran and South Korea. However, at this moment, Zhao Dan relied on the position of the leader of the alliance of Zhao Guosanjin to force Han Wangran to make a choice between two choices, presumably Han Wangran must be extremely dissatisfied with this in his heart. ”

Qin Wangji pondered for a moment, and then said, "What if Han Wangran is dissatisfied in his heart? This Zhao State is now so powerful, does Han Wangran still dare to go against Zhao Guo? ”

Cai Ze said with a smile: "With the power of South Korea, it is naturally absolutely impossible to oppose Zhao Guo." But if Qin and Wei are added, then whether Han Wangran will go against Zhao is two words. ”

Qin Wangji suddenly realized and slapped his thigh: "Gang Chengjun's words are very true!" In this way, then this matter of Lian Han is also worth discussing. ”

Qin Wangji is not stupid after all, although it is said that South Korea is an out-and-out Erwuzai for Qin, but after all, the biggest enemy of Qin is Zhao at the moment, as long as he can overthrow Zhao, then Qin Wangji is not unacceptable even if he pinched his nose and joined hands with these Erwuzai of South Korea and Wei.

After all, in this Warring States era, any bloody alliance is nonsense, and only interests are the biggest driving force that can truly unite various countries to deal with the common enemy.

Qin Wangji calculated for a moment, if Cai Ze's ideas could be realized, then Qin Hanwei would face Zhao Chu, and the situation would become three to two.

It doesn't seem like a very empty thing.

The eyes of the other Qin ministers in the main hall looking at Cai Ze were already very different.

If most of the eyes were more or less malicious in the past, then now, Cai Ze has successfully eliminated a lot of malice with his ability, and even some people have begun to show admiration in their eyes.

Of course, if Cai Ze wants to completely gain a foothold in the political arena of the Qin State, it will definitely take a long, long time.

This time, the person who asked the question became An Guojun Zhao Zhu: "Gang Chengjun, even if it is according to what you said, then there are still two major variables of Yan State and Qi State. If Yan Qi joins the camp of Zhao State, then my Great Qin will still be at a disadvantage. ”

Zhao Zhu's worries are certainly not unreasonable, after all, now the State of Qi is joining forces with the State of Zhao to attack the State of Yan, in an attempt to overthrow the new Yan Wang An of the State of Yan.

And once Yan Wang'an is ousted from power and Zhao Dan's nephew Gongzi Ke succeeds to the throne, then Yan Guo is also likely to stand on the side of Zhao Guo.

Regarding Zhao Zhu's question, Cai Ze was not worried at all, and smiled at Zhao Zhu: "An Guojun doesn't know, this Yan State and Qi State have always been mortal enemies, even if both countries are close to Zhao State, then it is absolutely impossible to fight together." As long as Yan Guo helps Zhao, then Qi State will definitely send troops to help Qin, and vice versa. ”

"In addition, Qi and Yan also have their own problems that can be exploited by Great Qin. First of all, Hou Sheng, the prime minister of Qi State, has always been greedy for money, and if he sent an envoy to Hou Sheng to give Hou Sheng a large amount of money, then Hou Sheng is likely to persuade Qi Wang Jian to change his position here and get close to Daqin. ”

"As for the Yan State, if the Qi and Zhao coalition forces fail to attack the Yan State, then the Yan State is the mortal enemy of the Qi and Zhao countries. If the Qi and Zhao coalition forces win, Qi and Yan only need to provoke each other a little, and they will suddenly become dirty, so I don't have to worry about it. ”

Cai Ze's analysis finally convinced Zhao Zhu and said: "Gang Chengjun is a great talent, and I know it today." ”

If everything develops according to what Cai Ze said, then the ratio of allies between Qin and Zhao becomes four to three.

Although four to three doesn't sound like a very obvious advantage, for the Qin State, which has suffered a large number of losses in the last two battles, it is already a ratio that is enough to make the Qin State's high-level leaders excited.

Cai Ze received Zhao Zhu's praise, and the whole face immediately smiled, and said: "An Guojun praises falsely, falsely praises." ”

You must know that Zhao Zhu is the crown prince of Qin, and he may ascend the throne at any time. Being able to get this praise from Zhao Zhu, Cai Ze can be said to be truly accepted by the top power circles of the Qin State.

This meeting was finally decided by Qin Wangji.

"Since this is the case, then everything will be based on what Gang Chengjun said, and all matters will also be presided over by Gang Chengjun!"
