ps: I have a paper to write, and I can't update it normally these days, so I can only try to keep updating it, sorry

Ice slag on the river crashed against the boats passing from the Kasaka Ferry. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThe weather in winter and December is extremely cold, snowfall day after day, so that the big river also has signs of freezing, and in a few days, I am afraid that it will be difficult to even sail, whether it is to transport grain or transfer troops, it must be completed in a few days, otherwise, we have to wait until the snow melts in spring, but then everything will be late.

Wei Xu stood on the shore, covered with a thick gray coat, like a lonely watchman, he stood for almost half an hour, stared at the opposite shore for a long time, and finally looked forward to the boat of the nephew of the head of the family.

However, after the boat emerged from the winter fog on the river, Wei Xu found that it was not Wei Ju, but Lu Xing.

Seeing him appear, Wei Xu frowned.

"Why didn't the head of the house come in person?"

"Do you think that this matter is not related enough to the survival of the Wei family?"

Lu Xing's face was embarrassed, and after landing on the shore, he bowed down to Wei Xu, and bowed down three times, bursting into tears.

"Shame on the boy."

Seeing him like this, Wei Xu had already guessed that eight or nine would not be far from ten, and after Lu Xing told him about the changes that happened in Hexi, Wei Xu sighed: "Ju has been steady since he was a child, and he will not make this decision easily, and he was really taken hostage." ”

Lu Xing said again: "Now the two armies of the Qin State, the first army of the Wei clan are on the west bank, and there are hundreds of grain ships of the Qin State coming together, and the head of the family asked me to answer them in Pusaka." ”

Wei Xu looked at the Qin officials who were on the same boat with him, grabbed Lu Xing, stepped aside and said softly: "Once the Qin army comes east and coerces the Wei clan to start a war with the Zhao clan, then there is no room to turn back on this matter, what will be the consequences, do you know?" ”

"If you don't betray Jin, then the Wei family will be encroached upon by the Zhao family, and you won't even be able to keep the throne, and if you rebel into Qin, the Wei family can at least enjoy the treatment of the Shiqing in the Qin State, and rest with the country, if you want me to say, the Zhao family has also suffered a famine, and they may have a chance to fight to the death, or they may have a chance to ......" Lu Xing is a hawk within the Wei family, and he has long been dissatisfied with the Zhao family's encroachment on his territory Lu Cheng.

"Confused!" Wei Xu scolded, eager to hit Lu Xing a few times with a dove cane, "The ancestor Wei Xiangzi (Wei Manduo) at least knows how to let others fight hard, and the Wei family sits back and enjoys its benefits, but you and other juniors have no brains, borrowing a knife to kill people, but putting the entire Wei family into it first, it's really angry old man!" ”

However, after Wei's messenger hurriedly chased after him from Anyi, and informed Wei Xu by the river that the Zhao family's surprise attack on Gujiang and Xinjiang, and now that the two cities had been lost, even Wei Xu did not feel that there was any room for maneuver.

"Zhao Wuxian has declared the Wei clan to be the first traitor......" he smiled bitterly: "Zhao's son, are you so impatient?" ”

Maybe it's a different era, Wei Xu's era, but if you want to annex other Qing clans, you have to find a good excuse, and slowly reconcile the balance of power in the country before you dare to unite with others.

But probably from the beginning of the battle of Liuqing, the friends he was familiar with were completely gone, and the deceit between the Qing clan became more and more intense, and everyone became eager for quick success and quick profit, and liked to merge.

Now, the Wei family has raised the banner of anti-Zhao half-pushed and half-pushed on the spot, and the Zhao family has also clearly declared that the Wei family is their enemy, and the two families have started a war, which is no turning back......

Wei Xu sighed, and without further ado, he gave up the ferry and let Lu Xing perform his duties.

"Xinjiang and Gujiang are lost, even if Qin Wei enters Hedong, the situation is becoming more and more difficult, and when the spring is in full swing, I don't know how long it will last."

"Zheng Guo of Qi will also launch an attack on the Zhao clan, and there are still many Qing doctors and princes who are dissatisfied with Zhao Wuxian in the Jin country, maybe they will be able to defeat the Zhao clan next year." Lu Xing had some confidence, and after being forced to announce his rebellion against Jin, the Wei family also made up their minds to fight for the clan.

"Does Uncle Ancestor want to wait for the head of the family and the Qin people with me here, or go back to Anyi and Quwo to sort out the soldiers?"

"Neither."

Wei Xu smiled bitterly for a while, then took out the seal of Wei Qing left by Wei Manduo, as well as the tiger talisman that dispatched the Wei army in Hedong, and handed it to Lu Xing.

Lu Xing was shocked: "What does Uncle Grandfather mean by this?" ”

"I'm too old to fight with you."

He sighed and said: "I will say goodbye to the old man, and change the Yi clan, and leave the Wei clan with the children and grandchildren of the Terrier Yang line, and divide them into the Terrier Yang Sect. “

"This ...... The kid's small sect was separated more than a hundred years ago, and he didn't stay in the Wei clan to serve, and the Wei clan couldn't do without his uncle and grandfather. “

"What can I do with my old bones? Not only do I have to leave the Wei clan, but I also have to leave the Jin kingdom and go to the Chu kingdom. “

Lu Xing was furious: "Uncle and grandfather are trying to escape? “

Wei Xu pulled Lu Xing closer and reprimanded in a low voice: "You go back and tell the family master that the Four Kingdoms have no chance of winning against Zhao, and it is not possible unless Chu and Wu join." I will go to Chu now, try my best to persuade the king of Chu to join Qin, Wei, Qi, and Zheng, wave his army to the north, and maybe force the Zhao family to accept the invitation, if not, then the Zhao family will win, and the Wei family will die, I am going to leave a little seed for the Wei family, maybe my branch can still take root and sprout in the Chu country, and under the nest, there will not be a single egg left......"

He let go of the stunned junior and sighed in the snow.

It is said that earthworms are tenacious, and even if they are cut into several pieces, they can still survive on their own, and it is better to go their own way than to let the entire Wei clan perish with Wei Ju's desperate order.

Put different eggs in different baskets, so that no matter what the future situation is, whether Jin or Qin, there will always be a part of the Wei clan that can continue, even if it loses its territory and Shiqing, but at least it will not be extinct.

……

The twenty-second year of the Jin Marquis is a very dramatic year, in the first half of the year, the Zhao family attacked from all sides, buying grain and hoarding on a large scale, and then successively eliminated the Qing clan of the Wei country, captured the monarch of the three kingdoms and imprisoned, the children of the Zhao family seized the power of the two places, and the princes of the world were shocked, for fear that the next one would be their turn.

In the second half of the year, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, first the scholars who watched the stars and moon shadows every day in the Jixia School Palace predicted that the catastrophe actually happened, first the great drought, and then the locust plague in Shanxi.

At the end of the natural disaster, man-made disasters struck, and on the day of the white rainbow, Wei Manduo, the head of the Wei family, was assassinated in Anyi, and the murderer was Yu Rang, a retainer of the Zhi family, whose motive some people say is purely to avenge the Wei family, some say that Zhao Wuxian hired him to assassinate political enemies, or it was instigated by the Qin people.

In November, Wei Ju, who was confronting the Qin people in Hexi, suddenly announced that because of Zhao's assassination of his father and his increasing encroachment on Wei's territory, Wei had left Jin and joined Qin!

At the same time, an anti-Zhao alliance called "Lian Heng" was established, and the Chen clan took great pains to organize this alliance, but the leader of the alliance gave it to Qin Bo, after all, Qin was now the first backbone of the anti-Zhao resistance.

Being an enemy at the same time as Qin and Qi was something that the Jin State during the unification period also tried to avoid, not to mention Zheng, a country of a thousand times with strong combat effectiveness, and the Wei clan, who mastered Hedong and had a strong phalanx of foot soldiers.

However, this anti-Zhao alliance, although it seems to be strong, is far less perfect than the first time in terms of the severity of the encirclement. At this time, the people of the world suddenly discovered that the various wars and schemes done by the Zhao family in the first half of the year showed miraculous results at this juncture......

In the thirty-first year of the reign of King Kuang of Zhou, the twenty-third year of the Marquis of Jin (489 B.C.), on the first day of the first month of January, the Zhao clan and Qin Wei almost divided the eastern part of the river, and after a month of silence in winter, the war here was on the verge of breaking out, and Qi and Zheng also began to gather troops on the border. On the other side, in Taoqiu, known as "the middle of the world", the only "republic" in the world without a king and a father, the allies of the Zhao family gathered together, under the auspices of Duanmu Ci, to discuss the strategy of dealing with Qi Qin and other countries.

Zigong was pleased to preside over such an alliance, and although the protagonist was Zhao Wuxian, who was unable to attend in person, the conference was crucial to elevate Cao's international status. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that after this war, the borders of the princes of the Central Plains will be fragmented, and according to the closeness to the Zhao clan and the degree of contribution in the war, the countries will divide the interests after the war.

Even the whole pattern of the world will be reshuffled in the flames of war...... (To be continued.) )
