On the road to happiness, there will always be crowds. Either you're squeezed out by someone else, or someone else squeezes you out, no exception.

Before entering the Qin State, Zhang Yi was the one who was squeezed out by others. He will never forget that night in the Chu State, the moment when he was beaten by Zhaoyang as a thief, in front of everyone, he was beaten to the flesh, this is the sorrow of the little person, that night, he secretly swore that sooner or later he would become a person who can decide the life and death of others. It is because of this that he comforts his wife that as long as his tongue is still there, the future will still be there.

So, he went to the Qin State, met the King of Qin, and won the position of Keqing with his three-inch incorruptible tongue, and in the war with the Wei State, together with Gongzihua, he defeated the Puyang City of the Wei State. However, he quickly moved the king of Qin and returned the prince of Qin to the Wei state together with Puyang City, which was used to persuade the king of Wei to give the fifteen counties of the upper county of the Wei state, as well as the important town of Shaoliang in Hexi, to the Qin state. Of course, he succeeded, and the King of Qin, overjoyed, made Zhang Yi the prime minister—an official position that the Qin State had used a long time ago.

So Zhang Yi made persistent efforts to squeeze others, that is, Sun Yan, the great good of Qin State, out of the avenue of happiness, and forced him to leave Qin State and go to Wei State, and he completely became the confidant of King Qin, and helped Qin State to implement his own strategy of connecting and horizontal, so as to fight against the alliance of the six eastern countries.

Later, with the rise of the "Five Kingdoms Prime Minister" incident headed by Han Zhaowei, Qin already felt a threat from the east, especially after Chu's great victory over Wei, the three-nation bloc headed by Qin, Qi and Chu was actually being isolated and resisted by the five-nation bloc headed by Han Zhaowei. This point can be seen from the Yang Fengyin and Yin violations of the Qi State attack on Zhongshan by Yan and Zhao. At least in this matter, the Yan and Zhao families did not regard the Qi State as an ally.

Zhang Yi's sense was even keen, and he immediately discovered that the current Wei State relied on the Five-Nation Alliance to fight against the Chu State, and Yan Zhao also hoped to fight against the Qi State through the Five-Power Alliance, and South Korea hoped that this alliance could help him resist the attack of the Qin State. Therefore, after understanding this, you will be able to know that whether it is the Prime Minister of the Five Kingdoms or the Rossang Alliance, it is just another duel between his old friend Gongsun Yan and himself, and the battlefield of this duel will be the whole world.

Just like this time, as soon as he arrived at the city gate, he saw Gongsun Yan. And this time, he still chose to smile.

"I haven't seen you for many days, but the style of Xiangbang is still the same, I really envy a certain family." Gongsun Yan was wearing a black deep coat, looking at his old friend with a smile, what could be happier than seeing his opponent?

"How can a down-and-out person compare to Lord Rhinoceros?" Zhang Yi also smiled in return.

Xiangbang's words are unreasonable. A certain family was originally in the Qin State, but you drove it to the Wei State. How can you talk about being in good spirits? ”

"But now, the contemptible people have also fallen here, where can we talk about the demeanor?"

In just a few words, the smell of gunpowder gradually became stronger. Gongsun Yan looked at Zhang Yi's smiling expression, the deep clothes he chose today were very old, just like a scholar, his hair was tied up, and his clothes were spotless, just like the first time he met him, he felt that this world was no longer lonely.

Zhang Yi also looked at Gongsun Yan, once upon a time, he also thought that this person would be a mentor and friend, but as time went by, he and his own opinions became more and more different. Especially in the relationship with Wei, the two finally broke down. In Zhang Yi's view, if the current Wei State wants to survive, it can only rely on the Qin State and follow the Qin State. Gongsun Yan, on the other hand, hoped that Wei would be able to guarantee his independence. So, Zhang Yi took advantage of Gongsun Yan's acceptance of the benefits of the Wei envoy to divert the prince's attention, and overthrew Gongsun Yan in one fell swoop, so that he came to Wei in disgrace.

At the end of the day, it's heroes who cherish heroes.

Gongsun Yan took a step forward, attached it to Zhang Yi's ear, and said lightly: "I know that you were not forced to resign, but came here to implement your strategy." However, I won't say and maybe even help you. With that, she stepped back and looked at him for a moment.

Zhang Yi's face did not change, he looked at Gongsun Yan with an expression of I understand you, and also said in his ear: "Let's play another game, this time, let's play something big." The one who loses is ruined. ”

Gongsun Yan was slightly stunned, and then looked at Zhang Yi with a smile, and Zhang Yi also looked at him with a smile, without the slightest concern for the strange eyes of the pedestrians on the roadside.

The next day, on the main hall of the Wei Wangcheng, Zhang Yi still walked into the hall dressed plainly, and between the walks, he still couldn't change the demeanor of the secretary of the great country, only to see him striding up to the palace, not caring at all about the eyes of the ministers of Wei on both sides, he bowed deeply calmly, and said in his mouth: "Zhang Yi, meet the king." ”

King Wei looked at Zhang Yi at the bottom, sighed deeply, and said, "Qin... Mr. was able to come to Wei this time, but what could he teach to the widow? "I remembered that I met Zhang Yi a few times before, and the other party was an envoy of the Qin State, and the Wei State was quite strong at that time. And now, he is still himself, but the other party has become a civilian.

"As a Wei person, Caomin is shallow in knowledge, but he wants to contribute his own modest strength to the Wei State, and hopes that the king will be successful."

As soon as Zhang Yi's words came out, the ministers of Wei were in an uproar. Although it is true that Zhang Yi is a Wei person, in recent years, the humiliation suffered by Wei is also due to Gongsun Yan and Zhang Yi. As a result, I didn't expect that this Zhang Yi's first sentence was to serve the Wei State, and this person's thick skin can be regarded as the first in the world!

King Wei didn't seem to think what Zhang Yi said funny, but said indifferently: "Mr. used to be in a high position, and now he is committed to a small country of my size, I'm afraid that Wei State will not be able to show his talents." ”

Gongsun Yan's eyes lit up, he looked at Zhang Yi, and clearly saw that the eyes of this old opponent also flashed with a burst of light. I have to say that Zhang Yi's ability to grasp people's hearts is too high, just like himself, he also heard that King Wei actually had the heart to accept Zhang Yi.

"King Wei is serious. Though I have been in a high position, I am your lord. And Zhang Yi is like this, not for himself, but for the Wei State. Returning to Wei at this moment is exactly what he has learned in his chest. ”

"Oh? I haven't asked for advice yet, what Zhang Xiangbang said, where is it for the sake of Wei? Finally, Hui Shi, who was standing in front of the ministers, couldn't help but stand up and questioned this villain who had put the Wei State in danger many times, and especially pointed out that Zhang Yi was the Xiangguo of the Qin State before.

"Lord Hui Shi, my lords, don't be angry, listen to me." Zhang Yi gave a salute to Hui unhurriedly, and said Kankan: "The place where my Wei country is located is the center of the world, the intersection of the Central Plains, extending in all directions, and a flat river, which is not only the strength of my Wei country, but also the disadvantage of my Wei country. So that in the land of thousands of miles, there are only 300,000 soldiers, but they have to base Zhao in the north, Qi in the east, Chu in the south, and Korea in the west. Therefore, once Wei showed a special preference for one of them, it would be guarded against by the other three countries. ”

"Yes, but this is the middle of the world, and the loss of this place will put Wei on the verge of national collapse. It is also the reason why our country has been repeatedly invaded. Hui Shi said.

"No, that's the disadvantage of Wei's national policy." Zhang Yi said categorically.

"Please advise."

"Don't dare. Xiangbang is a good metaphor, I would like to tell it with a story. Zhang Yi thought for a while and said: "In the past, King Xuan of Chu summoned the ministers, and asked the ministers because the princes were afraid of Zhao Xi. Only Jiang Yi said: 'The tiger in the mountain meets the fox and wants to eat it. The fox said, I am the messenger of the Emperor of Heaven, you are not inedible, you should surrender to me. The tiger didn't believe it, the fox invited the tiger to patrol the mountain, the fox before and after the tiger, the beasts really dodged one after another, and the tiger didn't dare to eat the fox. ‘”

"As in this story, if Wei wants to rise again among the princes, it can only succeed by relying on a tiger. And this tiger is the Qin State. ”

"Sir, that's not right." A minister of Wei said: "Although Wei is strong, Qi and Chu are still strong, why can Wei only ally with Qin?" ”

Zhang Yi glanced at the person who asked the question, he didn't know him, but it didn't prevent him from answering: "Why does the Wei State have to rely on the Qin State?" This is the proper meaning of this. You may wish to imagine that if the Qin State sent troops to occupy the south of the Great River, and used the Rolling Land and Yandi as a springboard to attack the Wei State, then the Zhao State in the north would definitely not dare to save it, otherwise the Qin State would definitely intercept the back road of the Zhao army. ”

"What about South Korea?"

"South Korea is even less desirable. Korea was originally a barrier to Wei in the west of us, but if Qin united with Korea to attack Wei, Wei would definitely be unable to parry. ”

"What about the state of Chu?"

"Hahahaha," Zhang Yi laughed up.

"What do you mean?" Hui Shi saw what Zhang Yi said well, and suddenly laughed, and couldn't help but scold.

"Let me ask you, who wants to go to the Chu State and ask for peace with the opponent they just lost?"

After Zhang Yi finished speaking, the ministers of the entire Wei State stopped talking, and lowered their heads one after another, peeking at Zhang Yi, or at the King of Wei on the stage, and the careful thoughts in their hearts turned again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it can be seen from this that apart from the Qin State, who else can we attach to? No, no one. Zhang Yi restored the Great Qin Dynasty again, and the Xiangbang of life and death was so that the King of Wei looked at him with some awe.

Gongsun Yan looked at Zhang Yi's smug expression, and he didn't know what to say. I have to say that Zhang Yi captured the psychology of the King of Wei this time, amplified the dissatisfaction of other countries with Wei, and made everyone feel that no one could help Wei except Qin.

King Wei looked at the others, then at Zhang Yi, and finally said to Gongsun Yan: "What do you think, sir?" ”

Gongsun Yan sneered, but said respectfully on the surface: "This is the right way of development, and it is also the foundation of the strength and prosperity of the Wei State, I think, why don't you try it?"

"Try?" King Wei looked at everyone and nodded imperceptibly.
