Chapter 258: The Culprit

After bowing and saluting, Gongzi raised his voice and said, "Father, there is good news from the west. The Qin army, the Wei army, are actively preparing for war, and perhaps, within half a month, a war will break out between the two countries. ”

Qin and Wei competed?

I can't imagine it.

When he implemented the plan, he once doubted that he could not lure the king of Qin to the bait.

Who knows, King Qin was even more impatient than he expected.

Hearing this, King Qi stroked his beard, the smile on his face became thicker, his eyes stared at the prince, he was very satisfied, and praised: "In this matter, you have done a good job, steady and orderly, and do not show your face, provoking the dispute between Qin and Wei, which can not only weaken the Wei State and combat the arrogance of the King of Wei, but also contain the pace of the Qin army in Dakang and strive for opportunities for the Qi State." ”

In his early years, he appointed his prince as the heir of the Qi State, and he taught carefully for many years, and now, he is doing things more and more with the courage of his own.

At the beginning, he provoked Qin Wei to hand over the matter to the prince, and he was worried that the other party's wrist was too tender to lure the king of Qin to the bait.

Unexpectedly, things went so smoothly.

King Qin, who prides himself on being smart, was easily hooked.

Hearing this, Gongzi gathered his smile and said anxiously: "Father, things don't seem to be as simple as planned, Gongsun Ang, the general of the Qin State, won a great victory in Xiliang, defeated Zhao Shaoqing's tiger and wolf cavalry, and seized most of the money and food of the Dakang royal family.

Led the troops in triumph.

Erchen was afraid, the Qin army triumphed, and obtained a huge amount of gold and silver, and the gold and silver stored in the treasury of the Qin State was even more than that of the Qi State.

It is enough for King Qin to fight a vigorous battle.

Moreover, Zhang Yi, the secretary of the Qin State, had already sent an envoy to the Zhao State, wanting to persuade the King of Zhao to attack Lin Hu, and the Wei State alone was afraid that he would not be able to stop the tiger and wolf of Qin.

The most important thing is that the news of the invasion of Wei came out of the court of Qin, and the people of Qin were full of fighting spirit and supported the king of Qin to attack Wei.

At present, not only the Hangu guard general Xing Buying is preparing for war, but the forbidden army stationed in Xianyang is also preparing for war.

And the king of Qin secretly ordered Shen Tuxiu to lead the Flying Bear Army to the west of the river, the Flying Bear Army was prestigious, and Wei Wushu was afraid that he would not be able to stop its edge.

If Gongsun Ang, who led the victorious army, and then led the Xiaowu army into battle, it would not be revenge, and the king of Qin might destroy the Wei state in one fell swoop.

Once Wei Wushu was defeated on the front line, there were no strong princes in the Central Plains to stop the pace of the Qin army, Han was in a dangerous situation, and even the Qi State could face military disasters. ”

The king of Qin is good at fighting, and the Qin army is fierce.

There is no doubt about that.

He was most afraid that the King of Qin's revenge was too strong and wiped out the Wei State.

In this way, the situation will be out of his control.

"Really?"

King Qi smiled and didn't seem to care.

Looking at the nervous expression of the prince, he sighed lightly: The other party is like a young eagle that has not experienced a storm, but it is still too tender.

In case of trouble, you can't be afraid of danger and don't be alarmed.

According to the plan, it was only necessary to provoke the Qin and Wei countries to compete and delay the pace of the Qin army's southern expedition.

If the king of Qin wants to gather the elite of superiority, he will fight a quick battle, and finish his work in one battle, and destroy the Wei state with the power of thunder.

It's really not a good thing to align the country.

In particular, the infiltration of Qin's forces into the Central Plains will be like a nail, posing a threat to Zhao, Qi, and Chu.

King Qi paused and said with a smile: "Wingman, there is no need to be nervous in case of trouble, first consider whether it is, and then consider why." ”

The prince was full of confusion, and said suspiciously: "The son is stupid, I don't know what my father means?" ”

"Tell me, did King Qin decide to destroy Wei in one fell swoop?" King Qi asked.

Gongzi was stunned for a moment, hesitated, shook his head and said: "There is no definite news to prove that the King of Qin wants to completely destroy the Wei State, but Erchen has already prepared for the worst, lest he be caught off guard after something happens." ”

"Hmm!"

King Qi was very satisfied, and asked, "Tell me, what are your plans?" ”

"Lian Zhao Han Fa Qin!" Gongzi said categorically, but he was also anxious: "Zhang Yi entered Handan, and his sons were afraid that King Zhao would change his course and be pro-Qin and Far Wei, so that the plan would fail." ”

"Hahaha, there is no need to be afraid, the more fierce the battle of Qin and Wei, the longer it takes, and the more beneficial it is to the Qi country." King Qi said, sneering: "King Zhao, he is smarter than you, he knows how to judge the situation best, and he will never turn against the Qin State, unless he wants the Zhao State to perish." ”

King Zhao and King Wei are all heroes of the world, and they all have extraordinary ambitions, how can they be willing to send people under the fence and be driven by everyone.

When Gongzi lowered his head and thought for a while, he seemed to understand his father's deep meaning, and asked, "Father, what should I do next?" ”

This overall plan is related to the strength and weakness of Qi in the next few years, and it is also related to whether Qi can establish a thousand years of hegemony in the future, and it cannot be disclosed anywhere.

Otherwise, if you are not careful, Qi Guo will not be injured by the tiger instead of fighting the tiger!

He didn't have a good plan, so he pinned his hopes on his father.

King Qi picked up the teacup, took a sip of it, and said loudly: "Eastern front, urge the generals to speed up the offensive, seize the Song State as soon as possible, and occupy the eastern part of the Chu State." Before Qin defeated the Wei army, he ended the battle ahead of schedule, reconciled with Chu again, and jointly attacked Qin.

On the western front, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, with the help of all parties, balance the forces of Qin and Wei, and reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

He has his own wishful thinking, and all the current situation is under his control, and there is no need to be afraid of the Qin State at all.

On the other hand, in the Qin State, the sharper the soldiers, the easier it was for him to adopt a balancing strategy.

Gongzi bowed slightly, hugged his fists and said: "Erchen understands, immediately send someone to secretly monitor the movements of the Qin and Wei armies, if the war starts, the Wei army will not be able to deal with it, and immediately send someone to try to instigate Zhao Han to participate in the war, and cooperate with Wei to form an alliance to crusade against Qin."

As his father said, the longer the battle on the Western Front dragged the Qin State into the war, the more the Qin army was consumed, and the more beneficial it was to the Qi State.

With the help of Zhao Wei Han to form a barrier in the Central Plains, it can not only ensure that Qi is not devastated by war, but also allow him to consume each other, and finally, form a situation in which Qi is dominant. ”

"Hahaha, the son can be taught!" King Qi looked up and smiled, very satisfied with the prince.

That's right!

Wei was defeated, and once again managed to make Zhao Wei Han resist Qin, forming a huge barrier in the Central Plains, which was still very advantageous to Qi State.

Qin State!

Xianyang City!

Gongsun Ang, led by Yang Jingluo, and Ruan Xinghe, led the elite soldiers, escorted the prisoners, escorted the money and grain, and returned from Xiliang.

When the imperial court learned the news, Ji Xuanling led the ministers and the people to greet them at the west gate of Xianyang City early.

In this battle, Gongsun Ang fought beautifully, forcing Zhao Shaoqing to surrender, so that not only reduced the casualties of the Qin army, but also demonstrated the military might, a large number of prisoners, money and grain were transported back to Xianyang, which will greatly enhance the national strength of the Qin State.

At this time, the west gate of Xianyang City is crowded with people, and it is very lively.

When Gongsun Ang, Yang Jingluo, and others led the elite soldiers to appear outside the west gate, Gongsun Ang noticed the lively scene at the city gate and found that the king was wearing a black python robe and led hundreds of officials to greet him at the city gate.

In an instant, I was quite moved.

After all, even if he won a great victory in Xiliang, compared to the previous battles, in addition to bringing back more money and food, the scale was not far less than the previous battles.
