Section 142 The King of Qin wants to attack Chu
King Qin didn't say anything, but asked people to send some letters to the four kings of Yan, Zhao, Wei, and Han.
At this time, Wei Wangqi suddenly asked, "Why don't you see the King of Chu?" ”
"I've read the letter, I'm afraid I can guess it. At least Ben Wang guessed it. At this time, everyone noticed that King Qin was wearing a plain dress today, and the Son of Heaven was also wearing a relatively plain clothes.
"Could it be the King of Chu......" Han Wang was laughing while opening the letter, he thought that the King of Chu had encountered some accident.
But after reading the letter, King Han took the blame: "Damn! ”
"Damn!" King Wei swept the wine on the table to the ground and shouted: "This Chu country is really hateful, where is the king of Chu?" ”
King Qin said unhurriedly: "It's also the king's failure to investigate, two days ago, someone reported that there was a group of caravans out of the city, but this group of caravans did not have any goods, now that I think about it, I am afraid that the king of Chu has returned to the Chu realm." ”
King Yan was very calm, and he spoke: "Right now, what is worrying is that the Six Nations Alliance. The edict of the Qin army's withdrawal may have already arrived in Linzi, and the two generals Bai Qi and Bai Hui are afraid that they are already on the way, if the Chu army takes the opportunity to make trouble, or unites the Qi army, it will not be a good thing for our five-nation alliance. ”
"What is King Qin's plan for this?" Zhao Wangxin said that King Qin was so calm, he was afraid that he had already made a plan.
King Qin shook his head: "When this king heard this, he was also a little surprised, and he couldn't think of a good plan for a while. However, Bai Hui believed that the Qin army went south from Luoyi to the Chu capital, forcing the Chu army to retreat, and then let the king of Chu return to the table to negotiate on this matter. ”
"Attack Chu, this matter!"
King Qin's plan was beneficial to the four kingdoms, but the four kingdoms did not dare to respond.
There is no other reason, just because Bai Hui is in charge, so maybe Qin Guo can take a big advantage from it. The state of Qin promised not to occupy a city or a pool, which would take advantage of the anger of the state of Chu to provoke the following countries but have the opportunity to occupy the city of the state of Chu.
Although the plan is good, you can't agree to it like that. Otherwise, the Qin State will take a big advantage.
King Wei hated the King of Chu in his heart, but at this time, he had to say a few words for the King of Chu for his own interests, so the King of Wei said: "Maybe the courtiers of the State of Chu made their own decisions without the permission of the King of Chu, and the King of Chu rushed back to deal with this matter?" ”
"Maybe that's the case, then this king ordered Bai Hui to stay still."
King Qin was very calm, and said in his heart, with the four of you greedy guys, can you rest assured that the Chu army will still stay in Qi and join forces with the Qi State?
King Qin came with an attitude that since you don't believe it, then I don't care.
King Han and King Wei are definitely a pair of good friends, and they immediately opened their mouths to redeem themselves: "Bai Hui's attack on Chu is indeed the best policy, but what if King Chu is really deceived?" ”
"And what do you mean?" King Qin's tone was very unhappy, and he would say the best policy and the other would say not to fight.
In fact, King Qin understood the reason very well, but he was pretending to be confused.
King Zhao explained: "Fight, but it's good to teach a lesson." ”
"Yes!" King Qin understood that he must not be greedy this time, and immediately said: "I only need one city." ”
"A city! It won't be Chudu Yingyi! The four kings were all taken aback, and said in their hearts that if they occupied Chu Capital again, it would be better not to fight, and the wealth that Qin State had obtained was already too much.
King Qin shook his head: "Last time, my Qin State ceded land and sued for peace, and gave two cities to Chu State. At present, the Qin State wants to return to these two cities, and then another city, Shangyong. ”
"Shangyong is the six cities." King Wei hurriedly added.
"How about this king to go to Yongjun to rule, and then Wu, Anle, and Wuling?"
The four kings left their seats and bowed their heads to take counsel.
King Yan said: "Let Qin send troops, it is impossible to have some benefits, this city can be given." ”
King Zhao also said: "But there is one point, this Bai Hui killed all the way to Chudu, what should I do with the city along the way?" ”
After the four kings deliberated, they raised this issue with the king of Qin.
King Qin said: "In order to warn the state of Chu not to be an enemy of the world, and in order to punish the state of Chu, these cities must be detained one or two, but this king said that as long as there is one city, then one or two cities should be deducted, how about our five kings to sacrifice the Son of Heaven?" ”
"Yes!" The Four Kings gritted their teeth and agreed.
This dedication to the Son of Heaven is equivalent to control in Bai Hui's hands, but there is a small benefit.
Bai Hui will definitely send at least 10,000 or even 20,000 soldiers and horses to garrison, then it is impossible for these soldiers and horses to fight externally, and they nominally belong to the Son of Heaven.
If Bai Hui dared to use the name of the Son of Heaven to mobilize these soldiers and horses, it would be equivalent to the Qin State declaring war on the coalition forces of the nations.
The area around Luoyi, unless the Qin State dares to declare war on the alliance forces of the Heavenly Realm, will become a buffer zone between Qin and the Central Plains countries, which is not a bad thing.
At this time, the king of Qin said again: "In the future, the annual gift to the Son of Heaven will be made by my Qin State." Of course, I can't refute the hearts of the kings, how much gold is discounted for your gifts, and I will make up for it in Qin. Also, the Son of Heaven has decreed that Luoyi does not close the city gates, and all countries in the world can enter and exit Luoyi freely. ”
Gift?
I'm afraid that for nearly a hundred years, the princes haven't really given much to the Son of Heaven.
But this great gift comes first, allowing King Qin to take advantage of this benefit.
At this time, the King of Wei asked, "King Qin, do you plan to dedicate that city to the Son of Heaven?" ”
"Wanyi, plus a very small city, Jiayi. What do you think? ”
"Then Yiwanyi is also according to the edict of the Son of Heaven, without closing the city gate, and all countries in the world can enter and exit freely?"
"Yes!" King Qin gave a final response.
Good!
The matter of this city is settled, and the king of Wei said: "Then the last covenant, the thirty percent of the compensation that my Wei and Korea still owe will be stopped." I, Wei, let the two cities of Qi give Yan, and Han let the two cities of Qi give Zhao. The King of Qin can get the six cities of Shangyong, but we must add one more to the five-nation covenant. ”
"That one?"
"During the period of the alliance, Bai Qi and Bai Hui shall not be transferred to the borders with neighboring countries without the knowledge of our five countries."
"Yes!" King Qin had long expected such a rule, so he happily agreed.
At this banquet, under the witness of the so-called Son of Heaven, the five countries signed an eight-year no-war pact, including that border conflicts were not allowed, or there were conflicts between the border defenders, and the two sides had to be ordered to retreat first, and then talk about who was right and wrong.
The Son of Heaven said on the spot that he issued an edict and ordered Bai Hui to punish the state of Chu.
Luoyi is still signing a contract here, and Bai Hui's elite disguised as a transport team has arrived at Wancheng City.
"Listen to the Chu army, we are the baggage team of the Qin army, and according to the Six-Power Alliance, our Qin army will exchange the spoils of Qi for military rations to the Chu State."
There is indeed this covenant.
It's a pity that the king of Chu fled back to the Chu capital in a hurry, but forgot to tell the city guards about the incident.
The Wanyi guards did not know the deception, opened the city gate, and welcomed the Qin army transport team into the city.
As a result, when the head of the Yi Shou General moved, he didn't understand, how could the Qin army dare to betray the Six Nations Alliance and sneak attack Wancheng?
The battle in Wancheng was one-sided.
