In 408 BC, Wei Wenhou took advantage of Zhao and sent troops to Zhongshan. Wei Wenhou took Le Yang as his general, and the prince as his supervisor. Leyang fought hard for three years, and in 406 BC, he defeated Zhongshan, killed Zhongshan Wugong, and Zhongshan was destroyed. In 380 BC, the son of Wugong of Zhongshan took advantage of the strategic focus of Wei in the Central Plains, and Wei and Zhao fought against each other, and with the help of Qi and Yan, he led the remnants of Zhongshan to launch several wars against Wei and Zhao to recover the country. It is for the restoration of Zhongshan Henggong.

After the restoration of the kingdom of Zhongshan Henggong, the capital was initially set in Gu, and later moved to Lingshou, and the Great Wall was built in the south to defend against the Zhao state. Reuse the descendants of Leyang, with his grandson as the general, while stabilizing the domestic situation, focusing on reform and people's livelihood cultivation. While fighting against Wei and Zhao, he did not fall behind. Zhongshan Kingdom soon caught in the cracks, not only survived, but also gained a firm foothold.

In 340 B.C., Zhongshan Henggong died and passed the throne to Zhongshan Chenggong. After Zhongshan Chenggong succeeded to the throne, he continued to implement the national policy left by the ancestors, with the descendants of Leyang as the generals, and worshiped the Wei people Sima Chou as the prime minister, recuperating internally and developing national strength. He was friendly with Yan and Qi externally, and occasionally invaded Zhao by force.

In 328 B.C., Zhongshan became a public pawn and was said to be the monarch of Zhongshan.

In 380 B.C., Zhongshan Henggong restored the country, to Zhongshan Juncuo, after three generations, decades. The national soldiers of Zhongshan are strong and strong, the people are strong, and the foundation is solid. At this time, Zhongshan Juncuo succeeded to the throne in 328 BC, and there were also several years.

In Zhongshan, there is a saying that it is the Zhongshan Juncuo, which has the atmosphere of a king. Zhongshan Juncuo, diligent and diligent, handling national affairs. He also believed that he would lead Zhongshan to a new level and complete the unfinished business of the previous emperors.

The envoy of Zhongshan, returned to Zhongren City, walked into Zhongshan Palace, met Zhongshan Jun, and said with a slightly angry expression: "Your Majesty, Zhao Jun sternly refused to demolish the city and the arrow tower. Zhao Jun said that Shancheng is the land of Zhao State. We can't be presumptuous. Zhao Jun also said that the Zhongshan soldiers were strong and strong, and they had the courage to destroy the city and the arrow tower by themselves. ”

"Zhao people deceive people too much, which is tolerable and which is unbearable." Zhongshan Jun was furious, kicked over the copy, and said with a difficult breath: "Zhao Junyu is alive, and he is still afraid of my Zhongshan Kingdom." is just a shaft, and he doesn't even take the widow in his eyes, hateful, hateful. ”

The Zhongshan envoy calmed down and said, "Your Majesty, what should we do." ”

In the hall, someone shouted, "Your Majesty, we should give Zhao Guo a look, and we can't let the vertical son underestimate us." ”

"The last general, I am willing to lead tens of thousands of troops to attack Zhao State, not to capture Juancheng, and to see you."

"Your Majesty, please give the order to go on the expedition."

In the Zhongshan Palace, the anger was unbearable, and they asked for troops to attack Zhao in order to repay the humiliation inflicted by Zhao.

Before his death, Zhongshan Chenggong entrusted the state affairs and his son to the minister of state, Sima Chou. Sima Chou was also in front of the sickbed of Chenggong in Zhongshan, and vowed to do everything he had learned in his life and be loyal to the new monarch. When Zhongshan succeeded to the throne, he also relied on him a lot, and many domestic and foreign matters would always listen to his opinions first and then implement them. Zhongshan Jun succeeded to the throne for several years and secured the throne with the help of Sima Chou.

Zhongshan Jun succeeded to the throne for a few years, there was no war outside, no disasters inside, and there was a song and dance. The only thing that displeased Zhongshan Juncuo was that no matter how he extended an olive branch to the Central Plains princes, the Central Plains princes always regarded him as an alien and a barbarian. Wei invited Qi, Qin, Yan, and Chu to bury Zhao and wait for an opportunity. Zhongshan Jun sent people to Wei to express that he was also willing to contribute. However, when Zhongshan envoy arrived at the Great Liang of Wei, he had never even seen the face of the king of Wei.

The Zhongshan envoy was not only given a cold reception by Wei, but also ridiculed by Qi and Yan. Qi and Yan allowed Zhongshan to join the plan to destroy Zhao, and the premise was that they should be controlled by Yan and Qi and driven by the two countries. Zhongshan is also a complete country, how can it be willing to be left behind. Seeing that the princes of the Central Plains snubbed him and ridiculed him, Zhongshan Jun stood in the palace and swore that he would revitalize the national strength in his lifetime, and he would definitely make a name for himself and be proud of the princes.

On the occasion of the funeral of the Five Kingdoms, Zhongshan also hoarded heavy troops on the border of Zhao. If the situation of Zhao State changes abruptly, he can take advantage of the fire to rob. Who knows, the army of condolence from the five countries with ill intentions has really become the mourners. Seeing this, Zhongshan Jun adopted Sima Chou's opinion of advocating peace and tried to express goodwill to Zhao State. However, Zhao Guo also ignored it at all.

Last year, Yan sent an envoy to tell Zhongshan Jun that he was ready to send troops to attack Zhao and invited him to deal with Zhao together. Seeing that the envoy was arrogant, Zhongshan Jun was angry in his heart, and a few words embarrassed the Yan envoy, and resolutely expressed his unwillingness to send troops with the Yan State. When Yan Envoy heard this, his heart trembled. Fortunately, Zhongshan Jun promised that he would never attack them when Yan sent troops to Zhao. In order to deal with the Yan State, he would send troops to garrison the border and attack the city of Zhao State.

Yan envoy got Zhongshanjun's promise and happily returned to China. At the time of the battle between Yan and Zhao, Zhongshan Jun attempted to capture the city of Zhao State. Several sporadic troop attempts were met with fierce counterattacks from Zhao State. Sima Chou's temptation got Zhao Guo's attitude, and he explained to Yan Guo. So, he stood still and sat and watched the battle of Yan Zhao.

After the battle of Yan and Zhao, Zhao Jun built the city and the arrow tower. This was a signal from Zhao to Zhongshan.

Zhongshan Jun saw that the military generals of Wenchen all said that they would raise troops to fight against Zhao State, and give Zhao State a little color to see. However, Prime Minister Sima Chou's expression was calm, as if what happened in the palace had nothing to do with him. Zhongshan Jun wondered: "Prime Minister of the country, how about the widow sending troops to Zhao State." ”

Sima Chou raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, what are the chances of winning against Zhao State." ”

Zhongshan Jun pondered for a long time and said, "The widow doesn't know. ”

Sima Chou turned his gaze to everyone and said, "You are somewhat sure of capturing Shancheng." ”

There was suspicion on everyone's faces, and they were not too sure about this battle. They proposed to attack Zhao, but it was just to cater to the king and vent their grievances by the way. If they were really allowed to lead their troops into Zhao State, these people would prevaricate for various reasons. Sima Chou saw that the ministers lowered their heads, was silent, and said steadily: "Compared with the Zhao State, Zhongshan Kingdom is a small country and a weak country. We took the initiative to attack Zhao State, isn't this a sheep into the tiger's mouth? ”

One person said: "Xiangguo, aren't you the most active in attacking Zhao?" ”

"Zhao and Zhongshan are incompatible, and there will be a war. I advocate attacking Zhao for the sake of Zhongshan's century-old plan. Sima Chou was stunned and said: "The five countries are plotting Zhao, we have a chance." Yan and Zhao are fighting, and we are also profitable. Right now? Yan Zhao signed a peace pact. Wei and Zhao were good friends. Zhao Jun is young and has a very high prestige. It is not a wise choice for us to send troops to attack. Your Majesty, this time is different from the past. ”

"Prime Minister, you are cowardice."

"The old man has been fighting on the battlefield for decades, how can he ever be cowardly? He was afraid. Sima Chou, his eyes slid across the man's cheeks, and said, "As a general, how can you choose to act in a way that does not seek the overall situation." ”

"Zhao Ren, bullying us, it's not okay." The Zhongshan envoy said angrily: "The prime minister can endure this breath, I really can't bear it." You soldiers can't bear it either. Your Majesty, you can endure the words of the people. ”

"This..."Zhongshan Jun looked left and right, and said: "As long as you can make Zhongshan Kingdom famous, proud of the princes of the Central Plains, and the widow is wronged, what does it matter." ”

"Your Majesty, our country is weak. Now is not the best time to start a war with Zhao. Sima Chou, with gentle words, said: "We can only rest and recuperate, thin and ready to go." Once the situation of Zhao Guo suddenly changes, we will hit it with one blow. ”

"Okay." Zhongshan Jun trusted Sima Chou quite a lot, and said: "Just according to the words of the prime minister." You guys, don't mention the matter of attacking Zhao? ”

The Zhongshan envoy said: "Your Excellency, Zhao Guocheng, what should I do." ”

"Forget it, forget it." Zhongshan Jun felt helpless and said: "Zhao Guo built a city and an arrow tower on his own land. It is indeed a bit presumptuous for a widow to point fingers. The country of Qi yelled at the widows, and the widows did not like it. Alas, wait! Once the widow has the capital to dominate, it will not be too late to clean up the Zhao State. ”

The envoy of Zhongshan said eagerly: "Your Majesty, if I take a step back, Zhao Guo will go further." Zhao Guo is too deceitful, we can't just forget it. ”

Nakayama-kun didn't want to forget it. However, the national strength is not as good as that of Zhao. Who made his fists and strength weaker than Zhao Jun. Zhongshan-kun, his words were full of helplessness, and said, "Okay." The widow has made up his mind and cannot go to war with the Zhao State. The ambassador worked hard for you and went to Zhao to protest. Whining a lot. ”

The Zhongshan envoy said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this." ”

"The widow's protest is an expression of dissatisfaction! is also conveying the attitude of widowhood to Zhao Guo. Widows, don't say anything, don't do anything. acquiesced in Zhao Jun's behavior, wouldn't he be underestimated. Zhao Jun will also underestimate the widow. O Ambassador! You just go to Zhao Jun's ear to nag and annoy him. If Zhao Jun can't stand it, maybe he takes the initiative to show his goodwill? ”

The ministers listened to the king's words and couldn't help laughing.

Zhao built a city and an arrow tower in Shancheng. Zhongshan protested several times, but Zhao ignored them. The city is getting stronger and stronger, and the arrow tower is also a few feet higher. Every time Zhongshan envoys sent envoys to Zhao State, they returned in vain. Zhongshanjun also felt tired, and the voice of protest simply stopped. Seeing that the monarch was not talking, the Zhongshan envoy was unwilling to come to Zhao again to suffer.

Zhao Yong, who was in Congtai Palace, said to the important ministers of the court: "Zhongshan envoy's mouth can really speak!" Can't stand the ears of the widows? If it weren't for Xiangbang and everyone, the widow really couldn't stand it. ”

The ministers laughed for a while.

Zhao Bao, stroking his long beard, said: "Every time the Zhongshan envoy goes to Zhao Guo, he always goes back with anger. It is said that if you smile often, you can live to be 100 years old. Zhongshan kept a calm face all day long, and he didn't see him smile. It is hard to imagine that Zhongshan could live to be 70 years old. ”

Fei Yi answered and said: "For the matter of Juancheng, Zhongshan envoys have gone back and forth many times. Zhao Guo and Zhongshan had a bumpy road, and this old man was able to eat and sleep. Me! I really convinced him. ”

Tian Buli also said: "Yes! Oh, yes! Every time the Zhongshan envoy sent an envoy to Zhao State, he always drank and drank a lot. Eat more than I eat. This strange old man is quite edible. ”

"What a pity! Zhongshan made a patriotic enthusiasm and was let down by Zhongshan Jun. Zhao Bao spoke eloquently and said, "I received the Zhongshan envoy's document today. It is said that Nakayama-kun sent someone to recall him. Zhongshan envoy, I'm afraid it won't bother us? ”

"Oh." Fei Yi said with a smile: "The Zhongshan envoy is gone, and one day in the future, I will think about him." ”

"Don't, don't." Zhao Yong, with a painful expression, said, "The widow doesn't want to see him." It's a headache. ”

Everyone looked at Zhao Jun's expression and burst into laughter. With that, Zhongshan envoy left Zhao Realm. The turmoil that swept Zhao and Zhongshan gradually subsided. Zhongshan Guo chose to deal with this matter in a low-key manner, and everyone thought that Zhongshan Jun was soft and afraid of Zhao Guo. But a voice in Zhao Jun's heart told him that Zhongshan Kingdom was not a docile lamb, but a fierce wolf. Wolves can bite.

Two months later, a document from the Central Plains fell into the hands of Zhao Bao. Zhao Bao saw that the content of the document was of great importance, so he summoned the important ministers to rush to the Zhao Palace to meet the king.

Zhao Yong, reading the contents of the document, his face changed greatly.

Fei Yi arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, what happened." ”

Zhao Yong passed down the document and showed it to everyone.

Everyone exclaimed and said, "Qi Chu Qin, the three kingdoms form an alliance to divide the world." ”
