Chapter 131: Lianheng

"Fang is in the general trend today, Qin is in the west, Chu is in the south, Qi is in the east, Zhao and Yan are in the north, and Wei and Han are in the middle. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info and the current situation, and the people bordering Qin, Zhao, Wei, Han and Chu also. The four kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, Han, and Chu attacked each other and had many contradictions, while the Qin State occupied Wuguan and Cuihan, and it was completely possible to sit back and watch its success or failure and occupy the absolute initiative!

With such the initiative, Qin could form an alliance with any of the four countries and then attack the other countries. Between the four countries, no matter which country is allied with the Qin State, it is a horizontal alliance, so the minister calls it Lian Heng! As long as the Qin State is strong, and there is a weak country serving the Qin State as an internal response, the Qin State will attack eastward without much effort! Zhang Yi explained in detail to King Qin.

"The strategy of even horizontal is a clever strategy for my Qin State to dominate! Mr. is talented, and few people admire. After listening to Zhang Yi's strategy, King Qin was sincerely admired.

The strategy of connecting horizons does not seem worth mentioning to future generations. However, Zhang Yi, who was able to put forward such an excellent strategy, had a strategic vision, and he was undoubtedly the world's leading diplomatic talent at this time!

A country's foreign policy must be able to adapt to the country's conditions before it can be truly implemented. There is no doubt that Lian Heng is really adapted to the foreign policy of the Qin State!

The core of Lianheng's strategy was to put the Qin state in the position of the "strong", and to serve the Qin state with other countries as the weak, which in itself was beneficial to the Qin state.

If Qin wanted to expand eastward, it would inevitably be resisted by the eastern countries. And the horizontal alliance between the Qin State and the bordering countries, no matter which country it is allied with, is actually beneficial to the Qin State! And in the process of connecting horizontally, the Qin State can also continue to attack other countries through such alliances, so the strong status of the Qin State will be more and more consolidated, and the weak status of other countries will also be unchangeable!

Such a strategy can be used as a long-term national policy of the Qin State and be implemented for a long time!

After getting the strategy of "Lian Heng", the king of Qin suddenly thought of the predicament that Qin was facing now, and then asked Zhang Yi: "Zhang Zi, now that my Qin State has been newly defeated by Qi, and the Wei army has asked our country for the land west of the river, what does Zhang Zi think our country should do?" ”

"What Wei is doing now is just taking a chestnut from the fire. In my opinion, now that our country is facing the coercion of Wei, we must not back down! The land west of the river was beaten down by the soldiers of the Qin State inch by inch, and the Wei State thought that it would be able to make our country submit by detaining our soldiers, which was too underestimating the Qin State. The king can ignore the coercion of the Wei State, and send heavy troops to the border of Qin and Wei, and the Wei State will definitely not dare to act rashly! Zhang Yi said.

Gongzi said worriedly: "According to Mr.'s practice, won't the soldiers detained by my country for the Wei State never come back?" ”

Zhang Yi replied: "Don't worry! Today's Wei is no longer the Wei State of the past, if our country really retreats, Wei State thinks that it really grasps the weakness of our country, and it will inevitably open its mouth. And if our country remains tough, Wei will not dare to act rashly when he is worried! However, if we want to bring General Gongzihua and the defeated soldiers back to Qin, our country will inevitably have to pay some price. ”

"What price does Zhang Zi think our country should pay, and Wei is willing to release him?" King Qin asked.

"Heaven and earth compete with each other, relying on strength! After the Battle of Hexi, the strength of Wei State declined greatly, how could it threaten our country again? Of course, if the king wants to bring my Qin soldiers back to China, it is also necessary to give some benefits to Wei. In the following opinion, Anyi, the old capital of Wei, is the place of origin of Wei, which is very important to Wei and is like chicken ribs to our country. It's tasteless to eat, it's a pity to throw it away, but it's just right to use it here. Zhang Yi replied lightly.

Hearing such an answer, King Qin said directly to Zhang Yi: "As a snob, Mr. wants to gain fame and fortune in my Qin country, and he will not disappoint Mr. The widow wants to worship Mr. as a guest secretary of our country, send an envoy to Wei State, and recover the soldiers who are stranded in Wei for our country, what does Mr. think? ”

Zhang Yi thanked him and said, "Thank you, the king!" ”

On the second day, at the Qin court meeting, the king of Qin worshiped Zhang Yi as a guest secretary and ordered him to send an envoy to Wei. At the same time, the King of Qin sent Gongzi Ji to transfer 50,000 troops from the Lantian camp to Hangu Pass, Chen Bing Qin and Wei borders.

For such an important thing, Daliang Zao Gongsun Yan has no say at all! The high-level leaders of the Qin State were shocked.

After Zhang Yi arrived in Wei, he went straight to the court of Wei, and as soon as he opened his mouth, "Qin envoy Zhang Yi visited the King of Wei", before he finished speaking, he was stopped by the King of Wei.

King Wei asked directly: "Zhang Yi, listen to your accent is Wei Yin, are you from Wei?" ”

Zhang Yi naturally would not deny such a question, and he replied honestly: "Zhang Yi is from Wei. ”

After receiving an accurate answer, King Wei did not hesitate to order the guards: "Drag me down and give Zhang Yiting a staff of twenty!" ”

Zhang Yi was extremely puzzled by this, and asked urgently before the guards came: "Zhang Yi asked himself that he had never offended the king, why did the king treat Zhang Yi like this?" Now that Zhang Yi is the envoy of the Qin State and the Wei State, isn't the king afraid of provoking disputes between the two countries? ”

When the King of Wei heard this, he became more and more angry and said: "You are a Wei person, I am the King of Wei, why can't the widow beat you?" The widow hates Wei traitors the most in his life, and he wants to tell you that he will plot with other countries for the fate of my Wei country! You dare to talk too much! Guard, give him ten more rods! ”

Seeing such a scene, Hui Shi hurriedly came out to play a round and persuaded the King of Wei: "King, Zhang Yi is now an envoy of the Qin State after all, and it is not good for our country to insult the envoys of other countries so blatantly!" ”

King Wei said indifferently: "Hui Xiang doesn't have to worry, the widow has his own measure!" ”

After the thirty rods were finished, the guards brought Zhang Yi in, and the king of Wei said to Zhang Yi at this time: "Zhang Yi, I beat you just now, it was Zhang Yi who taught his subject Zhang Yi a lesson." And now, it is the widow who officially summons the Qin envoy Zhang Yi! Say, the King of Qin sent you here to give the widow any benefit to redeem the defeated soldiers of the Qin State? ”

Zhang Yi was still enduring the pain of the court staff just now, and when he heard King Wei's words, he endured the pain and said to King Wei: "The generous gift that King Wei gave to Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi remembered, and Zhang Yi will repay it in the future!" Wei and Qin were in-laws, Qin sent troops to attack Qi, and Wei also promised to help, but now it is so rebellious. Wei even treats the country of in-laws like this, and the trustlessness of Wei is known to the world! My king sent me not to give Wei any benefit, but to tell the king of Wei: If one of the soldiers of our Qin army is harmed by Wei, Qin will definitely pour all the country's troops to attack Wei, and will never give up without breaking the beam! The words have been brought, farewell! ”

After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he turned around and left, without giving the King of Wei and the ministers of Wei a chance to react!

Such a scene made King Wei very embarrassed, of course he was not crazy, he just beat Zhang Yi casually. As the king of Wei, although he hated the Wei people who served other countries, he was not intolerant of them in the slightest. He beat Zhang Yi, but he thought that now the first brave general of the Qin State was in the hands of the Wei State, and the Wei State pinched the handle of the Qin State, so he naturally occupied a strong position!

He beat Zhang Yi, but he just wanted to use this strong position to put pressure on the Qin State, but he didn't expect this Zhang Yi to not eat this set at all! And Zhang Yi's last threat made him suddenly feel self-defeating!

Seeing Zhang Yi walk out of the court of Wei, and then thinking of the words left by Zhang Yi before, King Wei became extremely panicked for a while!

Could it be that Qin Guo really didn't care about Gongzihua's life?
