Chapter 163: Zhang Yi Enters Chu
A waiter walked in and said, "Your Majesty, here are the ministers." ”
Qin Wangsi waved his hand lightly and motioned for the eunuch to go down.
Qin Wangsi said: "Swing, go out with the widow." ”
The prince clapped his hands and clapped his hands, and several maids walked in with lotus steps to change clothes and wash for King Qin.
Win Ji, Zhang Yi, Gan Mao, Sima Cuo, Wei Zhang and other military generals, hearing that the king had woken up, gathered in Xianyang Palace to talk about the past and the present. Suddenly, the eunuch ordered the chant "The king has arrived, and everyone salutes." ”
With the support of the crown prince, Qin Wangsi walked out of the side hall. Seeing this, everyone said in unison: "Ministers, see the king." ”
Qin Wangsi raised his hand and said, "Sit." ”
"Thank you, the king." Everyone thanked them and sat down in their seats.
"All of you worked together to solve the crisis of the Qin State. Please bow down to the widow. Qin Wangsi bowed deeply to everyone. And they all stood up and saluted.
Seeing everyone standing, Qin Wangsi hurriedly said, "Sit, sit, sit." ”
"Thanks, Your Majesty."
King Qin sat on the throne and asked, "Win the disease, after the Central Plains War, what is the pattern?" ”
"Back to the king." Win said: "After the Central Plains War. Sanjin and we are good friends. The state of Chu also concluded a peace agreement with us. Qi Guo hated us so much. ”
"The country of Qi hates us so much." Qin Wangsi looked at everyone: "What's going on. ”
"Return to my father." The prince lowered his body, "The chief of the army led the army to relieve the siege of Yongcheng in South Korea. Then he united with the Korean army and waved his army northward to relieve the siege of Wei State's boiled dates. The chief of the Han and Wei coalition led the army to defeat the state of Qi on the edge of Pushui, and the Qi general Shengzi was killed in battle. We won all three battles, and the prestige of Great Qin shook the world. ”
"What do you say. On the edge of Pushui, we won the battle against the Qi country. Qin Wangsi looked dazed, "The Qi State has been defeated." ”
"Your Majesty, the Kingdom of Qi was not only defeated by us on the edge of Pushui." Zhang Yi said: "The situation on the entire battlefield is also a complete defeat. In the battle of Sanqiu, we lost to the Qin State. Today, it is back with interest. ”
"Good. Joyfully. Joyfully. King Qin Sixi said happily: "The Qi State is defeated, and we can be regarded as avenging the dead soldiers of Sanqiu." ”
"Your Majesty, we not only defeated the Qi people on the edge of Pushui. The kingdom of Yan has also been restored. ”
Qin Wangsi's eyes shone brightly, "The widow's nephew, what about the successor to the king?" ”
Win replied: "Zhao sent troops to besiege Zhongshan, and the king of Zhongshan couldn't withstand the pressure and took the lead in withdrawing his troops from Yan State. The state of Qi was defeated by us on the edge of Pushui. The king of Qi was not satisfied, and he reorganized his army for war, and had to transfer the Qi army of Yan back to Qi. Zhao Jun and Gongzi jointly counterattacked and defeated Yan Taiping. Gongzi ascended the throne in Jicheng, the capital of Yan, and became the king of Yan Kingdom. ”
"Okay!" King Qin bowed his head and said: "The widow's nephew has become the king of Yan." The widow fulfilled his promise to Meng Huan. Meng Huan's hatred for the widow will be a little less. ”
Ying Ji said: "Your Majesty, the minister met Meng Huan in the Yan Palace. ”
Qin Wangsi hurriedly said: "Meng Huan has something to say to the widow. ”
Seeing the king's expectant eyes, Ying Ji nodded, "Meng Huan said, she doesn't hate the king anymore." ”
Qin Wang Si sighed: "The widow owes Meng Huan too much. ”
"Your Majesty." Zhang Yi said: "Meng Huan understands the king's intentions. I am also grateful for all that the king has done for the princely office. On the edge of the water of the Qi State, it was defeated by the princes. The northern Yandi is also a failure. Why don't we take this opportunity to unite the Three Jin Dynasty to attack the Qi State and fight for the world. Achieve the hegemony of the Qin State. ”
"Your Majesty. We are not to be united. Gan Mao said: "The state of Qi was defeated by the princes on the edge of Pushui, but the national strength is still there. Sanjin and we are also inseparable. When we attack the State of Qi, we have to cross Han Wei and go on an expedition. This is a taboo for soldiers. ”
"The minister also thinks that it can't be attacked." Wei Zhang echoed: "In the battle of Lantian, we also suffered heavy losses. It is difficult to gather a large-scale military force again and go on an expedition to the country. If the king wants to achieve hegemony, he still needs to wait for time. ”
"The state of Qi was defeated by the princes on the edge of the water. The occupied Yan land will all be returned to Yan. Zhang Yi said: "We should carry the aftermath of victory and attack the Qi State." If you don't fight Qi at this time, you will wait for when. Once the Qi State recovers, it will be difficult for us to attack it. ”
Qin Wangsi set his eyes on Ying Ji's body and asked, "Ying Ji, what do you mean." ”
"Your Majesty. The minister and the state of Qi fought each other. Ying Ji frowned and said: "The competitive division of the Qi country is worthy of being a mighty division. The elite of the three kingdoms of Qin, Han and Wei jointly attacked the Qi division. In the battle of Pushui, we won. However, it was also a pyrrhic victory. The reason why the Qi State lost was because the elite of the Qi Division was all in the Yan State. If it weren't for Yan Zhao dragging down the 100,000 Qi Division elites in Yan Land, it would be difficult for us to win. There are thousands of generals in the Qi country, and hundreds of thousands of armor. There are also veteran Tian Pan, famous generals Kuang Zhang, Tian Yang and others. If we attack Qi unfavorably, the Central Plains princes will attack us back, and the Qin State will be in danger. The minister believes that the achievement of hegemony should be done slowly, not rashly. ”
Qin Wangsi said again: "Sima Cuo, what do you think?" ”
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the results of the war should be consolidated." Sima mistakenly said: "Although we occupy the land of the Three Kingdoms of Tho and Shu. However, the three people of Tho, Bashu and Shu are fierce, and the people's hearts do not belong to our Qin country. We should first govern Tho Bashu. Let the people of Tho Bashu fight for my Qin country. Once, we mobilized heavy troops and attacked the Qi country. The land of Tho Bashu will also be loosely controlled. If Tho Bashu rebels, the land we have gained will be lost. It is not the best policy to conquer the world and achieve hegemony. ”
Qin Wangsi said: "Dang'er, what do you think. ”
The prince said: "The child is against attacking the Qi country. ”
"Go on."
"There is a gap between the country of Qi and our country. Our attack on the country of Qi is an expedition of laborers. Even if we win the battle against the State of Qi, the land of the State of Qi will be obtained by the Three Jin and the State of Chu. Seeing that his father did not object, the prince continued: "The child thinks that the enemy of Qin is Chu. We should hit the state of Chu hard. ”
Qin Wangsi asked: "In the battle of Lantian, the victory of Chu is in sight. Why, the state of Chu withdrew. ”
The crown prince replied: "The eldest concubine has relieved the siege of Han Wei. According to the military alliance agreement, Han and Wei sent troops to attack Jianghan and Nanyang in Chu. Chu State Deng, Jiangling and other places were attacked by Han Wei. The state of Chu has gone in general and has no choice but to promise us to sue for peace. ”
Zhang Yi said: "Your Majesty, please punish the sins of the ministers." ”
Qin Wangsi asked, "What are you guilty of?" ”
Zhang Yi said: "The minister was forced by the situation, in order to ask Chu for peace. The minister privately promised to return Hanzhong County and Shang Yu to the Chu State in exchange for the terms of peace. ”
"Zhang Yi deceived Chu with the land of business, and divided the alliance of Chu and Qi. The outnumbered people were able to fight Danyang, beheaded 80,000 Chu troops, and broke through Hanzhong County in one fell swoop. Now, you have used the land of Shang Yu and Hanzhong to promote the peace between Qin and Chu and relieve the siege of our country. You are a great hero of the Qin State, how can a widow cure your sins. King Qin said: "The king of Chu is really stupid, he was deceived once, and he wants to be deceived a second time." ”
The crown prince said: "Father, this time we can't deceive the king of Chu. ”
King Qin said: "The widow will not return Hanzhong County and the land of Shang to the Chu State. In order to seize these lands, how many Great Qin soldiers were sacrificed. Yinghua also died because of this incident. ”
Sima mistakenly said: "Your Majesty, the minister has an idea. ”
Qin Wangsi said: "General Sima Cuo, what do you have in mind?" ”
Sima mistakenly said: "We exchanged Hanzhong County and Shangyu Land for Qianzhong County of Chu State." If we get Qianzhong County, we can connect thousands of miles of land such as Tho Bashu and so on. Strategically, we can suppress the state of Chu. ”
Win said: "The king of Chu is greedy, but not stupid. Qianzhong County has a lot to do with it, so it will not exchange with us. ”
"That's what we want." Sima mistakenly said: "The state of Chu is unwilling to change land. I, the Qin State, don't have to bear the infamy. ”
"General Sima Cuo's words are very much in line with my wishes." Qin Wangsi smiled and said: "The king of Chu is unwilling to change the land, so the widow does not have to bear the responsibility." ”
The prince said: "Father, I'm afraid we won't be able to do it." ”
Qin Wangsi said in a low voice: "What do you mean." ”
Zhang Yi smiled bitterly: "Zhang Yi deceived the State of Chu, and the King of Chu was furious. The king of Chu did not want the land of Qin, there was only one condition... I want Zhang Yi's head. ”
"Zhang Yi's head still has to do things for the widow. How can a widow give up? Zhang Yi, the general of King Qin, was silent and exclaimed: "Zhang Yi, you are planning to go to Chu State." ”
Zhang Yi nodded.
Qin Wangsi said: "Zhang Yi, if you go to the Chu State, it is equivalent to trapping the widow and the unjust. ”
"Your Majesty, the King of Chu wants Zhang Yi to go to the State of Chu. Zhang Yi went to the State of Chu to see the King of Chu, what can the King of Chu do with me. ”
King Qin hurriedly said: "If you go to Chu State, it is equivalent to sending you to death." ”
"Zhang Yi's head can obtain Qianzhong County for the king, why not."
"A hundred Qianzhong counties can't match you."
When the king said this, the ministers were very pleased. Even if you die in the Chu State, it's worth it. Zhang Yi bowed down and performed the state salute, and said: "Your Majesty, let the ministers go to meet the King of Chu." Zhang Yi can bully him once, and he can bully him a second time. I went to the country of Chu, and the king of Chu couldn't do anything with me. If I don't go to Chu State, Qin State will be at a loss. The two countries of Chu and Qin went to war again, and the war against each other was not a good thing after all. ”
"Good. The widow allows you to go to the state of Chu. Zhang Yi, you have to promise the widow and come back alive. King Qin said sharply: "If the king of Chu dares to kill you, the widow will definitely raise the army of the whole country to avenge you." ”
Zhang Yi said with a smile: "Zhang Yi didn't witness the king's achievement of hegemony, he wouldn't have died." ”
"The widow is waiting for you to witness the hegemony of the Qin State."
Zhang Yi left the state of Qin and ran to the state of Chu. The attendant Zhang Yu asked, "Qin Xiang, you deceived the King of Chu first." Subsequently, a great war broke out between Qin and Chu, and in the battle of Danyang, 80,000 Chu people were killed. The people of Chu are eager to pick your skin, eat your flesh, and drink your blood. Qin Xiang entered Chu again, not to kill himself. ”
"Don't worry!" Zhang Yi replied confidently: "The King of Chu will not let me die." ”
"The person that the King of Chu hates the most is Qin Xiang." Zhang Yu was puzzled: "Qin Xiang won't be confused!" ”
Zhang Yi smiled slightly and was silent.
If the king of Chu wants to kill him, he will also send his neck to the king of Chu. Zhang Yi is confused? At this moment, Zhang Yi is more sober than anyone else. It seems that it is impossible to escape death when going to the state of Chu. However, Zhang Yi understands the king of Chu, understands his opponents, and understands the state of Chu even more.
The king of Chu suddenly heard that Zhang Yi was not afraid of death, and came to the state of Chu, and said angrily: "Zhang Yi deceived the widow so miserably. Now, I dare to come to Chu State. ”
"Someone." The king of Chu shouted: "Put Zhang Yi on death row and find a good day to send him on his way." ”
Zhang Yi was drinking at the Chu State Wine Station, and Zhao Ju walked into the wine shop with his soldiers. Zhang Yi was calm, raised the wine bottle and greeted: "General Zhaoju, long time no see." Do you want to sit down and have a drink? ”
Zhao Ju sat on the wine table, picked up a glass of wine, and snorted coldly, "Zhang Yi, hurry up and have one more drink!" When you enter prison, I am afraid that you will not be able to enjoy the delicious food of the world. ”
"Is General Zhaoju planning to kill me?" Zhang Yi stretched out his neck, "Trouble General, start quickly." Zhang Yitian is not afraid, the earth is not afraid, but he is afraid of pain. ”
"Someone." Zhao Ju put the wine cup in his hand, which was still on the ground, and said sharply: "Take him away and put him on death row." Find a good day and send him on his way. ”
