Chapter 100: Calculating Ji Ling
After Zhou Hu fled to the Jin State with more than 10,000 cavalry, the King of Jin decided to keep Zhou Hu in the Jin State through consultation with his ministers, and maybe he could use it in the future.
It has only been more than 20 days since Zhizhou arrived in the Jin Kingdom, and there was a patriotic envoy who asked to see him.
The king of Jin summoned the envoy of the country, and the envoy said: "King of Jin, in order to avenge the revenge of the family,
He used 5 million money to exchange the heads of Zhou Hu and Shi Hou with the Jin State. ”
King Jin asked, "Who is your current Wei King?" ”
The envoy said, "It is Princess Jixian, the daughter of the former king." ”
King Jin was startled when he heard this, thinking that this woman would dare to be the king, but he still continued to ask, "What if this king doesn't agree?" ”
The envoy of Wei Guo said: "My Wei Wang's family was all killed by the state call, if the king of Jin does not agree, my king will personally bring troops to arrest him." ”
King Jin said unceremoniously: "King Wei is also so big-mouthed, he even wants to lead troops into my Jin Kingdom to arrest people." ”
The envoy of Wei Guo said: "Please consider the feelings of King Wei, the family was all killed because of the state call for the dynasty to usurp the throne, and King Wei will definitely lose his mind in order to take revenge." Besides, the throne of Zhou Hu was also obtained by usurping the throne by seeking the dynasty, and if the name is not right, it will not be of much use for the king of Jin to keep him. ”
At this time, Le Yi and Fan Qi both said: "King, let's discuss it first." ”
The king of Jin said, "Envoy of the guard, you go down first, and this king will think about it." ”
After the Wei envoy left, the king of Jin left Le Yi and Fan Qi alone to discuss.
Le Yi said: "Wang, it's useless to keep the state, it's better to exchange some money." ”
Fan Qi also said: "King, we will give Zhou Hu and Shi Hou to them, not to mention 5 million yuan, and we can get more than 10,000 cavalry." ”
King Jin said: "The problem is that if we do this, the kings of other countries will be in trouble in the future, who will dare to vote for us, and who will still believe in us." ”
Le Yi said: "King, there are still a few countries, and there will be no kings in distress." On the surface, Wei Guo set up a queen, but in fact it was the Zhou Dynasty who was in charge.
The Song State is surrounded by the Zhou Dynasty on three sides, but it borders the Qi State on the north, and the Qi State now wears a pair of pants with the Zhou Dynasty, so the Song State is just a matter of when Xiang Yu wants to take it.
Yan State is in the northeast corner, only bordering Qi State and our Jin State, and the vitality of Yan State and Qi State is greatly injured, our Jin State does not fight him, and no one will beat him for the time being. Chu and Qin are both big countries, and there will be no difficulties. ”
King Jin suddenly realized and said: "Le Aiqing's analysis is right, a state that plots to usurp the throne has no effect on us. Send him to the country, we can not only get money, but also get some people, which is a good deal. General Fan, you immediately led your troops to arrest Zhou Hu and Shi Hou and send them to defend the country. ”
Fan Qi received the order to go, in order not to let the state call them wary, Fan Qi asked people to inform the state call and Shi Hou, saying that the king of Jin summoned them to discuss things.
Zhou Hu and Shi Hou didn't know that there was a fraud, so they went to the palace of King Jin, and as soon as they were halfway there, they were arrested by Fan Qi. Zhou Hu shouted: "General Fan, why is this? ”
Fan Qi said: "You two usurpers who are plotting to usurp the throne, staying here will damage the reputation of the Jin Kingdom, and my king has decided to send you back to the country." ”
Zhou Hu said helplessly: "Could it be that you Jin Kingdom are also afraid of Xiang Yu." ”
Fan Qi said: "My king is not afraid of Xiang Yu, but he doesn't want to be with you and other rebellious ministers and thieves, you have to say more when you wait." ”
After Zhou Hu and Shi Hou were sent back to defend the country, Ji Xian was overjoyed. Ji Xian saw the two of them, tied and pressed to their knees, full of hatred in his heart, and walked over and kicked each of them a few times.
Chen Sheng handed a knife to Ji Xian at this time, and Ji Xian held the knife, but because he had never killed anyone, he still couldn't do it.
Ji Xian said to Zhou Hu and Shi Hou, you two commit suicide, I will also leave you all corpses, and I will not pursue your family.
The two nodded in agreement, and Ji Xian asked Chen Sheng to take them down, change places, and let them commit suicide.
After Zhou Hu and Shi Hou committed suicide, Ji Xian's wish finally came true. Ji Xian asked Ji Yan: "Sister Ji Yan, we can go back to Luoyi now, I still want to go back to the Dance of the Immortals." ”
Ji Yan said: "Not now, you will have to be the queen for a while." ”
Ji Xian was still worried and said, "You and the princess, you won't leave me here alone." ”
Ji Yan said: "Don't worry, we are still here to accompany you for a while, and we will wait for the entire country to completely stabilize." ”
"Sister Ji Xian, let's accompany you here first, but seeing you as a queen, you can only stay in the palace for a long time. I'm bored for you, it's better for me to be a general, kill and kill, and be more at ease. "Ji Ling also thinks it's not interesting to be a king now.
Ji Xian said: "Yes, I don't even know what to do. ”
Ji Ling said, "Let's find a way to have some fun." ”
Everyone said yes.
Soon, other countries knew that the current monarch of the country was a woman, and everyone felt incredible. Although they all know that Weiguo is now managed by the Zhou Dynasty, they think that this Yu is too daring to think and dare to do it.
Seeing Xiang Yu's rapid annexation, all countries were shocked and frightened, and they all went all out to develop their armies and economies.
Due to geographical reasons, the Song Kingdom could not develop at all. Although King Song learned through Ziqi last time that Xiang Yu would not fight Song Guo in a short time, he still coaxed all day long, afraid that Xiang Yu would suddenly rise that day, so he called over.
King Song sent more people to inquire about the affairs of the Zhou Dynasty, and now the focus is on Xiang Yu and Hua Long.
Now, all the countries have learned that although Xiang Yu's army is small, it has won more with less in the long run. They all believe that no matter how large the number of soldiers in the army is, they will not be able to have an absolute advantage, and the soldiers must be excellent. As a result, they all sent more people to study secretly in the cycle and prepare to reform their own country's army.
At the same time, countries are also vigorously recruiting talents, but talents are not said to be available, and real talents are rare in a century.
The State of Qi was the first to send people to the Zhou Dynasty to study, and Hualong also let the people of the King of Qi go directly to Yiling for on-the-spot study, so the State of Qi recovered relatively quickly in terms of economy.
King Qi now saw the soldiers of Xiang Yu's army, and his combat effectiveness had greatly improved compared to before. I also want to send people to learn, but I also know in my heart that if I directly send people to learn other people's military secrets, others will not be able to teach them.
King Qi thought about it for a long time, but still sent an envoy to ask to see Xiang Yu and Hua Long.
After the envoy of Qi saw Xiang Yu Hualong, he said: "General Xiang, General Hua, the king of Qi has sent me this time to ask you two questions: first, how will the situation in the world develop in the future; 2. How should the army be built so that it can win more with less in the long run, just like you. ”
Xiang Yu said: "King Qi is really welcome, and we have to teach us about the affairs of the army." ”
The envoy of Qi said: "My king also knows that the abilities of General Xiang and General Hua cannot be learned by others, so he wants to improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers." I also asked the two generals to give advice, Qi State is not a threat to the Zhou Dynasty now, and my king said that Qi will never be able to keep up with the pace of the Zhou Dynasty. ”
Xiang Yu said to Hua Long: "Second brother, how do you think this should be taught." ”
Hua Long said: "Envoy Qi, the current situation in the world is already obvious, and there are only six kingdoms left: Chu, Qin, Jin, Yan, Qi, and Zhou. The Wei Kingdom already belongs to the Zhou Dynasty, and the Song State has existed in name only, and it may be destroyed at any time, and it will depend on how these six countries develop.
As for the construction of the army: you let the king of Qi put some effort into weapons and equipment, and the personal abilities of soldiers. In one sentence: in the Warring States Period, soldiers were more valuable than fine. ”
