Just when Gongsun Yan went to the Great Liang of Wei State.

The battle of Qin and Zhao Shangjun is still spreading to Tengcheng one after another.

After the defeat of the Qin army, King Zhao did not continue to find the Qin army for a decisive battle, but led the main force to confront the Qin army, and at the same time let Dai Tuo take more than 10,000 Hu cavalry, using the speed of horses, taking advantage of the loss of the Qin army's camp and the lack of grain and grass, to go deep into the rear of the Qin army, disrupt the grain route of the Qin army, and plunder everywhere.

A few days later.

In the palace of the state of Wei.

Gongsun Yan saw the King of Wei again, and said to the King of Wei, whose eyebrows were tightly locked: "King, now that Zhao has defeated Qin, Zhao has no worries, and Zhao will not retreat from Weiguo." Wei was besieged by various countries, and its potential ally Qin was also defeated by Zhao, and now Wei no longer had any reinforcements. Therefore, for the sake of the king, it is better to stop here, break off diplomatic relations with the State of Qi first, and admit his mistake to the King of Chu, the King of Chu is benevolent and righteous, and he will definitely agree. ”

Gongsun Yan knew that the State of Chu had no leisure to meet the State of Wei now, and if the State of Wei stopped at this time, the King of Chu would at most scold a few words, but there would be no actual action.

In the coming year, the state of Chu will not be able to take care of the state of Wei even more.

However, King Wei listened to Gongsun Yan's words of persuasion, and his face was only indifferent.

At this moment, King Wei looked at Gongsun Yan silently.

The defeat of the Qin State by the Zhao State was indeed very unfavorable to the Wei State.

Now that the Wei army knew that Zhao and Wei were at war, and Qin was also at war with Zhao, Qin was an ally that was not an ally to Wei. As a result, the Qin state was defeated, which was a heavy blow to the morale of the Wei state.

The king of Wei was not only worried that the Zhao State would take advantage of the great victory and transfer troops south to take the opportunity to pull out the Wei State, but also worried that the Qin State would lose the battle and no longer continue to form an alliance with Qi Wei, but would instead fall to the Chu State.

According to King Wei's original assumption, it should be the defeat of Qin and Zhao.

If Qin defeats Zhao, Zhao submits to Qin, and then Qin, Qi, Zhao and Wei form an alliance, and then Zhao and Wei win over Korea, so that the situation in the world changes greatly, and the danger of Wei naturally recedes, and then only wait for the countries to join forces to attack Chu.

So, perfect!

Thinking about it, King Wei let out a long sigh.

Unexpectedly, this time, the Qin State was defeated, as the victorious country, the Zhao State was too far away from the Chu State, and was not enthusiastic about attacking the Chu State, and now it is difficult to let all countries attack the Chu State together.

King Wei faintly regretted in his heart, whether it was too early to betray the state of Chu.

It's just that Wei can't go back now.

In the case that Chu has called on all countries to besiege Wei, the relationship between Chu and Wei has completely broken down, if Qi and Wei break off diplomatic relations again, in case Chu has rested for a year, and then attacks Wei again, at that time, who else can Wei find for help.

Qin Qi Zhao Han?

Which of these four countries will send troops to the rescue?

Thinking of this, King Wei gritted his teeth, shook his head and said: "If the rhino head comes to catch up with the widow, the widow welcomes it, if the rhino head is just here to persuade the widow to surrender, then please let the rhino head take care of himself." ”

Gongsun Yan was taken aback, and glanced at King Wei in surprise, not wanting King Wei to refuse so firmly, he didn't even ask about the conditions of Chu State, so he directly refused.

hesitated in his heart, could it be that the king of Wei saw that the Wei army had not yet been defeated, and he still had a fluke in his heart!

Thinking about it, Gongsun Yan could only sigh and then retreat.

After Gongsun Yan retreated, the king of Wei ordered: "Pass the order of the widow and send envoys to the four kingdoms of Qin, Qi, Zhao and Han." Sent an order to the general Xi Wu and told him to be on guard. ”

Tengcheng.

After Gongsun Yan returned to the Chu camp, he reported to Xiong Huai about the envoy to Wei.

Xiong Huai was stunned and said strangely: "Rhino head, so far, King Wei is still unwilling to give in?" Is it dissatisfied with our conditions, or is it because of something else. ”

Now, Gongsun Yan had guessed one or two of King Wei's concerns, shook his head and said: "Great King, King Wei is not dissatisfied with the conditions, but he did not ask about the conditions for the countries to withdraw their troops, and intends to fight with the countries to the end. ”

"This..." Xiong Huai asked, "What does King Wei mean by this?" ”

Gongsun Yan didn't mention that King Wei might have a fluke in mind, but said in a speculative tone: "Perhaps, King Wei is just worried that after the Qi State is weakened, our Chu State will target the Wei State next." ”

Xiong Huai was stunned for a moment, and sighed: "I don't want to, King Wei's misunderstanding of widows is so deep!" ”

“···” Gongsun Yan did not answer.

Following.

"My lord, news from Shangjun. Ten days ago, the Qin army used a batch of grain as bait to lure the Hu cavalry of Zhao State, and as a result, the Hu cavalry was besieged by 30,000 Qin troops, and more than 10,000 Hu cavalry lost most of them, and a small part fled. ”

Xiong Huai let out a light "um" and didn't pay much attention to this matter.

There were more than 30,000 Hu cavalry in the Zhao army, and this loss did not hurt the muscles and bones, and the loss was still the army of the Hu people, not the army of Zhao, and there was no loss for Zhao.

Not only Xiong Huai didn't care, but Jing Cui and the others on the side didn't care either.

Seeing this, Chen Zhen immediately broke out a fierce news: "King, most of the Hu cavalry who were besieged and killed by the Qin army this time are people from King Loufu, and a small part is King Lin Hu's people. Seeing that the loss was too great, King Lou Fu questioned that Zhao Jun's intelligence was wrong, and that he was deliberately sending Hu Qi to death. In the case of the useless persuasion of King Zhao, King Lou was angry and led his army back to the north, seeing this, King Lin Hu also led his army to leave. As a result, there were only more than 5,000 cavalry members left in the Zhao army. ”

“···” Xiong Huai was stunned and speechless.

After a pause, he spoke: "The guest army invited by this heavy amount of money is so unreliable, and they will leave angrily at the slightest loss, but fortunately, there are not many Hu cavalry." ”

Tang Yu smiled and said, "Great King, this is a bad thing for the Zhao State, but it is beneficial for our Chu State. Through the exodus of the Hu people, King Zhao will definitely pay more attention to our coalition forces in Shangjun in the future. ”

Xiong Huai laughed when he heard this.

Three days later.

"King, the news of Qin and Zhao, Qin and Zhao have made peace."

“······” Xiong Huai was stunned and hurriedly asked, "What's going on, why did Qin and Zhao suddenly negotiate peace?" ”

Jing Cui and the others all looked at Chen Zhen, the matter of Shangjun was changing too fast, so fast that they couldn't react.

Chen Zhen replied: "Back to the king, since the king of Loufu and the king of Lin Hu withdrew, the king of Zhao ordered the Zhao army to retreat, intending to hold on to the city. Then, for some reason, the king of Zhao suddenly sent an envoy to negotiate peace with Qin, and then, Qin and Zhao agreed that Zhao would cut two cities to Qin, and Qin and Zhao would make peace and withdraw their troops. ”

Xiong Huai asked again: "Can you know, why did King Zhao ask for peace with the Qin State, and also cut the land to the Qin State to sue for peace under the condition of a great victory over the Qin State?" ”

Chen Zhen hesitated: "According to the news that Jingyang sent back from Shangjun, it seems that King Zhao received the letter of state from King Yan. Not long ago, the Donghu people saw that the Yan army was transferred to the south to defend Zhongshan, so they gathered a large army to attack the northern stronghold of Yan, and recaptured the pastures that Yan had stolen from the Donghu people last year, looted the cattle, sheep and horses of Yan, and took advantage of the victory to attack the native villages in the north of Yan. As a result, the king of Yan was furious and prepared to recruit an army again to wage war against the Donghu people. ”
