Chapter 72: The Conference of the Six
Chapter 72: The Conference of the Six
Liu Cheying stared at the envoy and said: "Zhao Guo's Yangtze River sneak attack on the waters of my Xia Kingdom in the First World War, Zhao Guo wants to pay for the loss of my Xia Kingdom, and Zhao Guo also secretly disrupts the party and provides it with equipment and weapons and other things, please sign this agreement!" ”
Zhao Guoyi was angry when he saw the content of the agreement: "This ~ impossible!" I won't sign it even if I die! ”
The content of this is very simple, all the territories of the entire Zhao State will be accompanied to the Xia State, and the King of Zhao will become the minister of the Xia State.
But it is impossible for anyone with backbone to accept this condition, how can he surrender so completely before he fights, except for those who are greedy for life and afraid of death.
"Don't sign? Then take this, you tell King Zhao! In less than half a year, Zhao Guo will definitely die, and my Xia Kingdom said to do it! ”
Liu Cheying took out a declaration of war, and she didn't plan to let Zhao State compensate for anything, because Zhao State was about to perish and would become the first nation among the Six Kingdoms to destroy the country.
Seeing that there was no room for recovery, the envoy rushed back to Zhao overnight.
King Zhao knew the situation and vomited blood, because he was really afraid, he had been completely afraid, the war in the past two years had made him lose a large number of troops, and now the pressure of Zhao State's conscription was increasing, if it wasn't for the full population, I was afraid that he really couldn't withstand the destruction of the past two years.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Don't scare your concubines! "King Zhao's concubine was scared to death next to him, if this guy returns to the West now, because he has no heirs to be buried with, it will be worth the loss.
"Since this Xia King is so rampant, he doesn't even care about the Six Kingdoms!" King Zhao wiped away the blood from his mouth, his eyes revealed a strange look, and he said weakly: "Come, send envoys to the other five countries to discuss the important affairs of the soldiers in the capital of the Han Emperor." ”
Soon after, the six countries sent envoys to the Han capital, which was a situation that had not been seen in a hundred years, and the Han Dynasty now seemed to have regained its former vitality.
In the past, the Han Dynasty offered more than just money and grain every year, and each vassal state would send ministers and even princes and kings to the Han capital in person.
The Han capital will also hold a major welcome ceremony, singing and dancing everywhere, cheering, only from the beginning of the two hundred young Jin kings to dominate, there are vassal states continue to dominate, and the Han Emperor is not taken seriously at all, especially in the Chu State after the Han Emperor has completely become a decoration.
Emperor Han was very happy to see the envoy of the Five Kingdoms, and he said with a serious face to the envoy: "Ladies and gentlemen, we still have to think long term about the affairs of Xia Kingdom, you can attack Xia Kingdom, and my Han soldiers will never interfere!" ”
Emperor Han received Liu Cheying's favor, and naturally remembered this kindness in his heart, especially the 50,000 elite soldiers he turned over came to the aid of the Xia State, so he naturally would not do something ungrateful.
The envoy of the State of Chu said: "Emperor Han, this is not a question of whether to meddle or not, but the State of Xia has made it clear that it wants to swallow our six countries, and they still do not worship Emperor Han, so this country of wolf ambition will naturally be destroyed." ”
The envoy of the Jin State looked at the envoy of the State of Chu and said disdainfully: "The State of Chu has such a big tone, the whole world belongs to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, I am afraid that you are going to be on an equal footing with the Emperor of the Han Dynasty?" ”
The Jin State was actually very hostile to the Han Emperor, especially the mutiny, but what could they do? Now call the past? I am afraid that the Han Emperor will send troops to reinforce the five countries when he raises his arms, and the Jin State will only suffer a loss, so it is better to provoke the contradiction between the Han Emperor and them first.
The envoy of the Yue Kingdom said with a nonchalant face: "Of course there is only one Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and the world is also the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, but all countries have masters, and there are some things that the envoy of the Jin Kingdom is afraid that it is better not to say more!" ”
......
Chu Yue and Wei were originally a family, although they are all enemies now, but they have the same attitude towards the Jin Kingdom, whoever is big can be big, but they can't let the Three Kingdoms of Zhao, Jin and Xia become bigger.
Emperor Han said majestically: "Shut up!" ”
Emperor Han stood up and cut off the corner of the table with a long sword in his hand and said, "If there are many words, this table is the same!" ”
Seeing that the scene was quiet, Emperor Han rolled up his sleeves and said: "You are here to talk about He Bing's attack on the Xia Kingdom, not to my Han Capital, if anyone wants to humiliate me, I will unite with the Xia Kingdom to destroy you first!" ”
Emperor Han has this strength, except for the Xia Kingdom, the rest of the countries are now allowed by many generals to have Emperor Han in their hearts, and many of them are relatives of the Han family, so they will naturally help Emperor Han.
After some discussion, it was finally decided to let Chu take charge of the soldiers and horses of the five countries and launch an attack on Xia Guo, and a big war was about to break out, this battle would determine the status of Xia State among the seven countries, and it would also consume a large number of soldiers and horses of the five countries.
The Jin State sent 50,000 troops, the Zhao State sent 150,000 troops, the Chu State sent 200,000 troops, the Yue State sent 80,000 troops, and the Wei State sent 50,000 troops, a full 530,000 troops, and the Xia State would be outflanked.
The eastern battlefield is Shanlan Pass, the south is landed by the coast, the western battlefield is the Yangtze River area, because the ironclad warship of the Xia State Zhao State did not dare to act at all, so it gave up, and the north could only occupy the time to give up because the terrain was not very convenient.
Chu State is the country that most hopes that Xia State will be destroyed now, they think more than Zhao State, this is also the reason why Fang Buqun is willing to send 200,000 troops, he is ready early in the morning, and he will fight to the death with Xia State, this is just right, the alliance of five countries, see how he Xia State fights!
At this time, the palace of the Xia king, Liu Cheying and Yan Ran were discussing the deployment of defense, this battle was very famous in history, the specific situation was not recorded in detail, but there was still a rough idea, there was no need to worry about the Yangtze River at all, there were gunboats in hand, the ships of the Zhao State had no role in the river, and could only rely on land to fight, so the Zhao army could not cross the river at all, and could only land from the south of the Xia State.
The southern part of the Xia Kingdom is led by Han Feng with 100,000 troops, and naturally there is nothing to worry about as a hanger, ten artillery pieces, and a new army of about 100 people will be stationed in the southern theater.
The most difficult part of this is Yan Ran, he has to lead 200,000 troops to resist nearly 300,000 elite soldiers from various countries.
Coupled with the topography of the mountain scale pass, it is very beneficial to the Chu State, and now the strong crossbow of the Chu State can be called the most of the Seven Kingdoms, with a large number of strong crossbowmen, and the combat power cannot be underestimated, especially since they still have tempered glass that can resist bows and arrows, which is naturally very difficult to fight, but Yan Ran can bring twenty artillery pieces this time, as well as a new army of nearly five hundred people, this battle can only be won and not defeated.
"Ping'an Jun, the eastern part of my Xia Kingdom will be handed over to you, after this battle, the five kingdoms will definitely be weakened, and then only us and Han will compete for hegemony." Han Feng's eyes were full of awe for Yan Ran.
Yan Ran said proudly: "The king can rest assured, the ministers will not disgrace their lives, this battle is over, and the unification of the world is just around the corner!" ”
"There's one more thing to do before the march!" Liu Cheying took out a list and handed it to Han Feng and Yan Ran, this is a list of spies from other countries, collected by Jin Yiwei from the minister's house.
