Chapter 648 has its own plans
Qi country station.
After a long wait, Gongzi Ang finally looked forward to the king of Qi.
Knowing that Ji Xuanling solemnly welcomed King Yan and held a banquet in Changle Palace, Gongzi Ang was extremely angry.
Little Yan Wang is not worthy of being compared with the Qi Kingdom.
Ji Xuanling despised his father and warmly entertained King Yan, clearly intending to favor one over the other.
"Father, the kings came to Luoyi, and the king of Qin invited the king of Chu and the king of Yan to a banquet, but he despised his father, and he deliberately gave his father another horse." Gongzi Ang said indignantly.
Even if the two countries are at odds, their little sister still marries into Changle Palace.
Doesn't Ji Xuanling know how to respect his father-in-law?
When the king of Qi heard the news, he initially complained.
He didn't know Ji Xuanling's tricks, and he didn't deliberately expose them.
When the capital of Qin was set to Xianyang, the vassal states sent troops to the west and captured Hangu Xiongguan, which could pose a threat to Qin.
Now the Qin State moved its capital to Luoyi City, Xianyang City, and Hangu Pass, all of which were garrisoned by Daqian dragoons, and the six countries invaded the territory in the west, which would inevitably provoke dragoons and make enemies with Daqian.
At that time, the situation will become more and more dangerous.
What's more, Luoyi City is located in the south, and the Six Kingdoms invaded Qin, and the army needed to go deep into the hinterland of Qin, and the price of coming back was too great.
He led the delegation from Linzi City to Luoyi City, and found that the territory of the Qin State was vast, and all parts of the country were actively restoring agriculture and order, and vigorously promoting the economy.
Most of the county soldiers encountered along the way were high-headed horses, well-equipped, and the captains who led the team were fierce and had clearly experienced cruel wars.
The king of Qi saw the subtle knowledge and roughly understood the national strength of the Qin State.
Even without the assistance of the Great Qian Dragoon, the elite of the Six Kingdoms made a heavy comeback, captured Hangu Pass, and approached Xianyang City, it would still be difficult to penetrate into the Qin State, and give the Qin State a deadly threat as before.
What's more, King Yan defected to the Qin State, and Qi and Chu fought endlessly.
The Six Nations are not monolithic.
No wonder Ji Xuanling is arrogant and doesn't take him seriously.
However, the King of Qi still hoped to find an opportunity to meet with Ji Xuanling alone to discuss the alliance between Qi and Qin.
The Qi army was mired in the quagmire of the southern battlefield, and it would not be able to withdraw and leave safely for a while.
Insisting on separating the winner from the Chu State will inevitably cause both sides to lose.
With the rise of the Qin state, if the two countries of Qi and Chu declined, it would create an opportunity for the Qin army to march eastward.
Once the Qin army sent out of the Han Valley in the east, the state of Chu and the state of Qi faced the front of the Qin army, and even lost the opportunity to resist the enemy and protect the country.
Linzi, Shouchun, fall at any time, facing the danger of the country being ruined.
Before he came to Luoyi City, Gongzi Ang mentioned in his letter that Ji Xuanling was willing to support Qi to dominate in the east and form a two-man pattern of Western Qin and Eastern Qi.
If the king of Chu is unwilling to end the war in the east and fight to the death with the Qi state, I am afraid that he can only form an alliance with the Qin state and obtain the support of the Qin state.
King Qi glanced at Gongzi Ang, and said meaningfully: "All the kings despise Ji Xuanling, he is good at governing the army, and he is even better at governing the country!" ”
In just a few years, the Qin State replaced Zhao Kang, and its territory expanded rapidly.
This move exceeded the expectations of the kings and changed the pattern of the Seven Kingdoms.
The advantages of the Qi State had long since disappeared before the Qin State.
At the beginning, the Qi army fought a quick battle and occupied the old land of Yue, but it was still qualified to fight with the Qin State.
"Father, the king of Chu has met the king of Qin, and recently he has been eyebrow-raising with the king of Zhao, the king of Wei, and the king of Han, and it is rumored that the king of Chu proposed that the four countries unite to form a powerful coalition army." Gongzi Ang told King Qi what he knew.
To prevent Qin, it is also necessary to prevent Zhao and Wei.
Once the nations isolate Qi, they face threats from both sides.
"Humph!"
King Qi's iron fist slammed into the desk.
King Han is not worried, King Wei is his defeated general, and King Zhao alone must be paid enough attention.
The King of Qi said angrily: "Don't worry about the King of Chu, do your own thing." ”
Since he came to Luoyi City, he naturally maintained the Qi State and worked for the interests of the Qi State.
Dead.
Chu State Station.
The king of Chu has just returned from a visit to the king of Zhao.
Among the countries, except for Qin, which was suddenly super powerful, Chu, Zhao, and Qi all had hope of rising.
Qi Chu fought, and the king of Qi was dominant.
Previously, he deliberately wooed King Zhao, but was rejected by King Zhao, and Zhao seemed to plan to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
The king of Chu couldn't figure out Ji Xuanling's attitude, and planned to make preparations with both hands.
Strive to strike first and persuade the King of Zhao, the King of Wei, the King of Han, and the four families to unite before the King of Qi.
Resist Qi in the east and Qin in the west.
The king of Wei and the king of Han gladly accepted his suggestion and was willing to provide the state of Chu with armaments, grain and grass in exchange for the goods needed by the two countries.
Tonight I met with King Zhao, who was very interested in his suggestion to resist Qi and reject Qin.
It was also afraid that Qin and Qi would unite and form a situation of Eastern Qi and Western Qin, weakening other vassal states from the east and west.
Hearing the suggestion of the king of Chu, the king of Zhao expressed his willingness to make an exception to sell war horses to the state of Chu in exchange for grain.
But they did not promise to unite.
Although there was no negotiation with King Zhao, King Chu was already very happy.
Being able to obtain war horses from Zhao State and greatly change the army of Chu State is equivalent to King Zhao supporting Chu State to resist Qi, after all, Zhao State refuses to sell war horses to Qi State.
"The king, King Zhao is mediocre and short-sighted, and I still plan to watch the fire from the other side. At present, the situation is uncertain, the generals of the Qin State gathered in Luoyi City, and after the King of Qin ascended the throne, he took the step of the Eastern Expedition, and the Chu State suffered first. Han Daochang said cautiously.
Han Daochang led the army to be stationed on the Western Front for many years, and when the Qin army marched south, he cooperated with the Qin army to fight, and he knew the details of the Qin army very well.
At present, no one is clear about the intentions of the Qin State, and the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, and Han are weak and it is difficult to resist the Qin State.
The king of Chu was bitter in his heart, like a dumb man who ate coptis and said that he was suffering.
He shook his hand and said, "Let's wait and see, no matter what King Qin does, the State of Chu must protect itself!" ”
The situation is unclear, and it is better to be still than to be still.
He believed that the situation had deteriorated, and the other princes and kings were more anxious than the Chu State.
What's more, the territory of the Qin State is vast, and there are still phenomena in various places where government decrees are not implemented, fertile fields are barren, and mountain bandits are troubled.
In a word, the internal problems of the Qin State are complex, and the King of Qin needs to spend a lot of effort to solve them.
A rash expedition may intensify internal contradictions.
Therefore, maybe Chu still has a chance to breathe.
Even at the end of the road, there are still strong soldiers behind the Chu State.
The kings gathered in the city of Luoyi.
Ji Xuanling knew their careful thinking and tricks well.
He also knew that when the kings came to Luoyi City, they would inevitably gather in a certain place before returning to China to discuss matters of resisting Qin.
For this, he didn't care.
After consulting with Huang Haoran, Xu Wenda, Jia Wendao, Yan Zhengfang, and the generals in the army, the imperial court announced plans for the next few years, vigorously restored the economy of Qin, maintained order in various places, and the Qin army would never fight abroad.
Even specific decrees have been issued.
For example, the whole country practiced frugal politics, pursued a policy of resting with the people, reduced taxes on the people, re-established laws and regulations, and built water conservancy projects in various places.
The imperial court changed the old system of the Qin State and imitated the great cadres, and Zhao Kang implemented the three-province and six-ministry system, changing the three-level system of state, county, and county in Zhao Kang's old land to the two-level system of county and county in the Qin State.
The local officials were reappointed to consolidate the centralized power of the imperial court.
Wait a minute.
