Qin and Wei attacked Chu in three ways, and the state of Chu could only resist and defend the city. The grain and straw of the Wei State could not support it, and the Qin State, which accounted for half of the world, provided corn. There are more than 3 million households in the Qin State, and nearly 100 million stone millets can be deposited in a year, and it is effortless to support an army of 700,000. Destroying the country is not a problem, let alone just breaking the small Wangcheng, the real problem is what decision the two countries make in Qi and Zhao.

The history of the Warring States period is basically a history of group fighting, and the key to victory or defeat is to divide the enemy alliance and unite friends. It was precisely because of the diplomatic hesitation during the reign of King Huai of Chu that the state of Chu vacillated between the rejection of Qin by Lianqi and the invasion of Qin by Lianqin, and it ended up moving eastward.

Although the state of Qi has declined, it has recuperated for decades after its restoration, and its strength cannot be underestimated; Zhao Guo's soldiers did not lose to Qin, but he was too small and had insufficient armor to compete with Qin, but if he saved Chu with Qi, it would be very taboo, or if he didn't save Chu and killed Yan, if it really happened, it would be Qin's fierce rival.

War is not a decisive victory on the battlefield, but a decisive victory in the temples of various countries, and a decisive victory in the tongue of the vertical and horizontal family. When Wei Yu mentioned the King of Qi, the King of Qi's heart was pounding, and he asked in disbelief: "Is the north of Xiapi really all my Qi Kingdom?" ”

"Yes!" Refractive words were solemn. "Xiapi will give Princess Kejia as a fief to show my friendship with the Chu State."

"Xiapi and Xiapi are also handed over to my Qi country...... Commendable princess? Hahaha......" Tian Jian laughed, he was so happy, this is six hundred miles of land. Although the six hundred miles are only east of the Yimu Waterway, excluding Lu Di, it is only before the King of Qi that the territory of the Qi State has reached Xiapi. It was precisely because of the destruction of the Song Dynasty that the Qi State was hated by all countries, and there were five countries to attack Qi. In the past, he almost destroyed the country in order to get it, but now he actually gave it to himself, and he was really tempted by the cowardice Tian Jian.

"The king must not!" Hou Sheng gave a look, and immediately a minister came out of the ranks.

"What do you say?" Tian Jian looked at him, a little puzzled. "The north of Xiapi belongs to my Qi country, why not?"

"Back then, the eldest son of Chu State was allowed to return to the country and ascend the throne and promised me 500 miles of the land of Qi ...... Huai, the first king of the king believed it, and the quasi-eldest son returned to the country and took the throne, but the eldest son repented and did not fulfill his promise, and the eldest son was so "

The minister who jumped out was an old man, speaking slowly and logically, Qu Guang saw this and hurriedly said: "If the king doesn't believe it, he can send troops to Xiapi today to receive the people's policy of the city defense treasury, first get my land, and then send troops to Chen Ying." The widow governs the country with courage and faith, how can he not fulfill his promise? ”

"Haha...... can you send troops to Xiapi today?" Tian Jian burst into laughter again, and he burst into tears. The old minister turned out the old story of Chen Guzi, and what he said was that Chu Guoyan did not believe it, but Qu Guang promised to recover the land first and then send troops, so there would be no problem.

"King," Hou Sheng couldn't hold back, so he could only go on his own. "If my Qi State sends troops to save the King of Chu, the Qin State will hold a grudge against me in the future. He and Wei, Zhao, Yan, and the Four Kingdoms will attack me together, what can I do? ”

When he mentioned Qin Guotian Jian, he was like an eggplant beaten by frost, and he was listless. The general Tian Luo also helped: "Your lord, if the four kingdoms of Qin, Wei, Zhao and Yan attack me, the Qi army will be invincible." ”

"Tell the king, Zhao and Qin have a feud, and they hate Yan, if Qin and Wei are Qi, he should be Yan. The king can allow the king of Zhao, if Qin, Wei and Yan attack Zhao, the state of Qi can save it, and my state of Chu also promises, if other countries attack Qi, the state of Chu will save it. With the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Zhao to resist the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Yan, why be afraid? Refractive outlined the strategic picture of the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Zhao against the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Yan, and said:

"The State of Qi has five kingdoms and almost perished, and the State of Qin has joined forces five times, but it has been hegemonic so far, why not? It is not the change of the Qin State, the soldiers of the Qin State, and the armor soldiers of the Qin State, but the geographical advantages of the Qin State.

As soon as the gap opens, Rongyang is the center of the world, this place of heavy soldiers, and there is Chenggao in the west of Rongyang, there is Gongluo in the west of Chenggao, there is Xin'an in the west of Gongluo, there is Mianchi in the west of Xin'an, there is Hangu in the west of Mianchi, and there is a peach forest in the west of Hangu. If it were not for the power of the six countries of Kwantung, it would not take several years to break the Qin State.

Qi is otherwise, there is only Muling in the south of Qi, there may be Gaotang in the east, and there is almost no defense in the north. If you don't align with the north and the south, you will be attacked again and retreat to Jimohu? Wei has helped Qin to abuse, if Qin defeats Zhao, Zhao will ask my Chu State to save it, with this, my Chu State should make Qi and Zhao alliance good, and no longer attack each other. Shang Ruoqi, Chu, and Zhao all attacked Qin ......"

The strategic concept described in the report of the Operations Division of the Great Sima Mansion was informed by Fei Xun to Refractive Light, and Refractive naturally used this to convince King Qi. He said that he deliberately sold a pass at the key point in order to arouse people's appetite. He turned to the ministers of Qi and asked, "What do you think?" ”

"What else?" Hou Sheng was displeased, "Doctor Qu has said that the Qin State has a favorable geographical position, and it is difficult to break Qin. It is useless for the Three Kingdoms to attack Qin, and afterwards the Qin State will choose one of its countries to cut it down, and you have the State of Wei as a screen, so naturally you have no worries, and my State of Qi borders the State of Qin......"

"Prime Minister Miao!" Refractive interrupts loudly. "The state of Qin is difficult to break, only west of Rongyang, if my three kingdoms of Chu, Qi, and Zhao invade Qin and divide the eastern county of Qin, the state of Qi should no longer border the state of Qin, how can the state of Qin cut down Qi? If the sea route of Qi helps Zhao to destroy Yan, and the land route helps me Chu to destroy Wei, why worry? ”

"Shang Ruo Chu and Zhao will attack me together?" Including Hou Sheng, all the Qi people were thinking about Qu Guang's proposal to divide the Three Kingdoms into Qindong County, and more and more people nodded, only the general Tian Luo has always tabooed Chu and Zhao to join forces with Qi.

"Yes, yes. Chu Zhao or Ke Vaqi, why doesn't the Qi State laugh at the land north of the Chu State today? Qu Guang retorted, "The north of Xiapi belongs to the Qi State, how can the Chu State cut down Qi?" After the princess of Qi is the king of Chu again, how can Chu attack Qi? Chu and Zhao invaded Qi, wouldn't the Qin State be a great joy, why did Chu and Zhao want to mess up their positions and cut down the alliance? ”

A series of questions were asked, leaving Tian Luo speechless. If the three kingdoms are really aligned, it is indeed the most beneficial to the Qi state, because the Qi state no longer borders the Qin state, and south of the Yellow River, the two cities of Fuyang and Rao'an will naturally be returned to the Qi state, and the two countries of Qi and Zhao will be bounded by the Yellow River. If you help Zhao Yanyan, you can get more cities.

These are all advantages, and the disadvantage is that once the Qin is not successful, then the Qin State is very likely to cut down Qi. If the state of Chu does not save the state of Qi during the war against Qi, but takes the opportunity to ask for the land north of Xiapi, then the state of Qi will return to the original place, and there is even the danger of losing the country.

This is a real question, especially in the era of alliances and horizontals, where diplomacy has always been more important than domestic affairs. The court meeting was soon dispersed in the excuse of Tian Jian, the king of Qi - it has always been necessary for the Zongheng family to speak to the outer courts, and argue with the courtiers of the whole country, and after the foreign dynasty, the national policy will be discussed in the Zhengyu Yan Dynasty, as for what the final king will decide, it is difficult to say. or because of the words of one of the close servants, or just because of the cry of one of the concubines on the bed.

"Woo woo woo ......" At the beginning of the lanterns, when Tian Jian came to Concubine Li's bedroom, he heard Concubine Li crying.

"What is the matter with the concubine?" Tian Jian is not a good king, but he is a good husband, he not only comforted his concubine, but also picked her up and held her in his arms.

"The king, Kejia has asked the king of Chu for a period, and the concubine heard that the king of Chu will ...... Woo woo...... "Concubine Li's tears were even worse," she thought, if the king of Chu is really killed, who will he marry one day? ”

The customs of the pre-Qin Dynasty, suing the temple is considered to be really married, and if you don't sue the temple, you can run back to your parents' house to continue to marry. In the era of no chastity, sex is free, or you don't need to go to the festival, as long as you look at the right girl, you can take her to the grove for a field battle, isn't this how Confucius was born? Because of this, after the wedding, you can't have the same room, but you have to be trapped, and after three months, you can tell the temple to do the ceremony of sharing the bed, so as to avoid being a father.

Princess Kejia and King Chu didn't talk about the wedding, and the wedding was not yet there, so Tian Jian was very surprised: "Why did Concubine Ai say this?" Ke Jia is the princess of Qi Kingdom, the king of Chu Ruoxu, who can't marry? ”

"The king, the king doesn't know ......" Concubine Li's tears continued, "Ke Jia was born when someone said that she was a bad husband, she and the king of Chu just asked for a date, the king of Chu was scolded, the world will think that Kejia is really harming her husband, who would dare to marry Kejia as his wife in the future?" ”

"Humph!" Concubine Li's reason was very far-fetched, and Tian Jian was still displeased when she heard this, "This must be done by those warlocks." ”

Concubine Li said again: "The concubine heard that the envoy of Chu was in Linzi, why didn't the king abolish the marriage contract between Kejia and the king of Chu......"

"Annulled the engagement?" Tian Jian was stunned for a moment, and he naturally shook his head: "This injustice, if you do it, the world will laugh at me Qi country." ”

"If the king doesn't save the king of Chu, the world won't laugh at me Qi country?" Concubine Li made Tian Jian stunned again, and she said again: "The king of Chu is the son-in-law of the king, if the king does not save him, the people of the world will not only laugh at my Qi country, but also despise the king." And the concubine heard that the king of Chu defeated the Qin State three times at the age of not being a child, and he was also a true hero in the world. If the king saves him, the state of Chu will be close to all generations in the future, and the country of Qi will have a blessing. ”

"Ai Concubine wants to send troops to rescue the King of Chu?" Tian Jian was puzzled, and there was no joy or anger on his face.

"The concubine only wishes that the king will either annul the marriage, expel the Chu envoy, or send troops to rescue the Chu envoy at the request of the Chu envoy." Concubine Li looked at Tian Jian with tears in her eyes, and everyone felt pity. "If you have a beard, it will not only harm Kejia, but also harm the Qi country, and make the people of the world despise the king, so you can't do it."

Such considerate words really reached Tian Jian's heart, but Tian Jian's distress is also here: Save your son-in-law and get 600 miles of land, why not do it? But the state of Qin is a big mountain, and people are overwhelmed. He said bitterly: "The widow doesn't want to be a fool, but the Qin State and the Qin State are terrifying!" ”

"Concubine heard that the Chu army had a huge armor, only more than 10,000 people broke through the 200,000 Qin army in one battle, and killed the general of the Qin army, Xin Wu, if my Qi soldiers also have a huge armor, why should the Qin State be afraid?" Concubine Li persuaded again at the right time.

"Whether it succeeds or not, it's all up to Concubine Li." Jixia Society, Chun Yu Yue Jujue Yao invited Refractive Light and Han Zhong, and then raised his head to drink.

"Whether it succeeds or not, my Chu country remembers the help of Chunzi and Han Jun today. If there is no reminder from you, how can there be such a strategy. "Kejia returned to Qi to win Concubine Li's gratitude, and it was natural for the mother-in-law to speak for her good son-in-law again.

"If the king still doesn't allow it, there is no ...... for me to save the soldiers of the Qi country" Chun Yuyue, who drank a jue, couldn't help asking, of course he hoped that the king of Chu would not die, there was a Chu country that did not obey Qin, and the Qi country was very safe.

"My family surnamed Mi has gathered, if the Qi country does not send troops, then tens of thousands will fight 400,000, and they will not die!" Qu Guang resolutely, said that he would do everything and not say anything else.
