This is a celebration banquet, the atmosphere is excellent, a group of people talk and laugh, but rarely mention official business, Lu Zhonglian suddenly mentioned, eye-catching, a group of people stopped eating, staring at Lu Zhonglian.

"Together?" King Zhao Xiaocheng's mouth opened widely, and it took a long time to react, and said with a smile: "Since the Changping War, Da Zhao has lost all his elite, and it is difficult to resist Qin, and he is looking forward to joining forces all the time. However, the countries of Shandong have no intention, so what? ”

In the Battle of Changping, 500,000 elites of Zhao State were lost, and the whole country was like no defense, and it was difficult to resist the Qin army. Last time, I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the material ceremony and the gathering of important ministers from all countries, but I saw that I was about to succeed, but I was scattered by Qin Yiren. As soon as he thought of this, King Zhao Xiaocheng was extremely unhappy.

At present, although the siege of Handan is solved, the Qin army will inevitably counterattack, and the situation of Zhao is even worse. The problem is that the countries of Shandong have no intention of continuing, which makes King Zhao Xiaocheng very depressed.

"yes." Pingyuan Jun echoed and said, "Qianliju, you know, Da Zhao is very willing to join forces, but the countries have no intention, how can this be good?" ”

"Although the king can rest assured, the situation is very different at the moment." Lu Zhonglian dropped his tongue and began to analyze, saying: "During the Changping War, Zhao was strong and the five countries were weak, and the five countries regarded Zhao as a threat, hoping that Qin and Zhao would be defeated and injured. Now, the State of Zhao is extremely weak, and it has long been unable to threaten the Five Kingdoms, and the Five Kingdoms cannot watch the State of Zhao be destroyed by the State of Qin. ”

During the Changping War, Zhao constantly sent envoys to lobby everywhere. Hope to join forces to resist Qin. Han, Wei, Yan, Qi, and Chu are the five kingdoms of Xuxu and Xuan. Wait and see what happens, and don't send troops. The reason for this is that the Zhao State was very powerful at that time, posing a serious threat to these five countries, and the five countries wished that the Zhao State and the Qin State would lose both.

"What Qianliju said is certainly reasonable, however, all countries are profit-seeking, and Da Zhao is asking for money at the moment. If you want food or not, why should the countries help Da Zhao? Minister Zhao asked.

This is to the point, the current Zhao State is extremely weak, and he can't get the bargaining chips for the countries to send troops, so he can only think about it.

King Zhao Xiaocheng didn't want to admit this, but he had to admit that it was true, and secretly sighed.

"It doesn't matter." Lu Zhonglian was confident and said: "After the two battles of Changping and Handan, Da Zhao was extremely weak and the treasury was empty. No money, no food, however. Da Zhao has land, and he wants the countries to send troops, but only in four words: tear the soil and cut the land! ”

"Ripping the ground?" An exclamation rang out.

No matter when, the land city is extremely important, and no one will be willing to cede it, even if it is a land where there is no grass, Lu Zhonglian's words are too amazing.

"Shut up!"

"How can the land and city of Da Zhao be ceded?"

Zhao Guoqun's ministers were the most angry, and scolded Lu Zhonglian. Some people roared incessantly, their eyes spewing fire, and they wanted to tear Lu Zhonglian and eat it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I can understand your feelings, however, I want to ask you, apart from this, do you have a way to save Zhao?" Lu Zhonglian didn't seem to hear the scolding, didn't see their angry looks, calmed down, and asked in a deep voice.

"This ......" Zhao Guojunchen asked with a wide open mouth, speechless.

The first battle of Changping has exhausted the money and grain of Zhao's treasury, and if there is a battle of Handan, where does Zhao get the money and grain? King Zhao Xiaocheng, the monarch of the country, is almost the same as calling Huazi, and he is so poor that he is dinging. There is no other price than land.

The countries sent troops to help Zhao fight Qin, it was not done for nothing, who would do it if it was not beneficial?

Although the countries of Shandong have whitewashed the issue of sending troops to the utmost sacredness under the guise of one kind or another, in fact it is for the sake of profit.

It is precisely because it is difficult to reconcile the interests of the six countries in Shandong that for decades, there has been a constant clamor for cooperation, but there are few cooperation, and it has only been so many times in the past few decades.

"Pingyuan-kun, what do you think?" King Zhao Xiaocheng had a hard time making a decision and asked Pingyuan Jun.

Land and cities are the foundation of the country, and no one will cede them unless they have to. Zhao State can cede the city to Qin State, but it is because he is afraid of Qin's military might and has to cede it.

"This ......" Pingyuan-kun is also difficult to decide.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks what Qianliju said is reasonable." At this moment, I saw Lin Xiangru standing up and rushing to Zhao Xiaocheng.

"Huh?" Zhao Xiaocheng Wang was surprised, and his eyes were staring at Lin Xiangru.

"Shangqing, why did you say this?"

"Shangqing, you have always been resolutely opposed to the cession of land and cities, why did you agree this time?"

Zhao Guoqunchen stared at Lin Xiangru with a look of surprise.

Lin Xiangru is a representative of the hardliners, who resolutely opposes the cession of land and the concession of land, but today he agrees, which is really incomprehensible.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the current Da Zhao has reached the point of life and death, if he can't get through the current pass, Da Zhao's life and death are unpredictable, and the land and city are just cheap Qin State." Lin Xiangru analyzed loudly and said: "Instead of this, it is better to split the soil and cut the land, in exchange for the five countries to send troops to relieve the siege of Dazhao." ”

This is very reasonable, the current Zhao State has reached the critical point of life and death, if the Qin army comes again, the Zhao State will definitely be in a catastrophe. Although the land city is good, then the Zhao country can still survive, even the country is dead, what use can the land city be? Isn't it cheap Qin State for nothing?

"The king, the words of the emperor are exactly what Lu Zhonglian meant, and I ask the king to choose it." Lu Zhonglian nodded heavily and said to Zhao Xiaocheng.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have a good plan?" King Zhao Xiaocheng's eyes widened, and he glanced at the ministers.

The ministers pursed their lips, and no one spoke. In this case, there is a better plan than this, that is impossible.

"Since this is the case, the widow will ......" King Zhao Xiaocheng is about to decide,

At this moment, I saw the red-clothed swordsman coming in quickly, and reported loudly, saying, "Your Excellency, the Qi State sent troops to attack Wei." ”

"Good! What the? Qi State Attacking Wei? King Zhao Xiaocheng didn't react for a while, and praised it loudly. Immediately afterwards, he reacted with a shocked face.

"Impossible!" A scream rang out, and everyone finally understood.

"Boom." The bronze wine jue in Xin Lingjun's hand fell to the ground, making a crisp crashing sound. The muscles on the face, neck, and back of the hands are suddenly bruised. Like the branches of an old tree.

"Impossible! You must have lied about the military. Xin Lingjun pointed to the red-clothed swordsman. The roar was loud.

"That's right! It must be a lie about the military situation. A chorus of echoes sounded, and the Wei generals roared the loudest.

"It's true!" The red-clothed swordsman was very determined, and said: "The Qi army, under the leadership of Tian Dan, suddenly attacked the Wei land, no one could stop it, and the momentum was like a bamboo, and it had already descended dozens of cities in the Wei country. ”

"Fake! Fake! It must be fake! Xin Lingjun's lips moved, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

Xinlingjun captured the Wei army. finally won a battle, got out of the crisis, and was full of calculations, and his prestige in the Wei State would soar. Where did you think that the State of Qi suddenly sent troops to attack Wei, which made him irreversible.

The king of Wei, as well as the Wei people, will definitely put all the blame on him, if you don't seize the Wei army, give the Qi country a chance to take advantage of. Does Qi dare to call?

This alone is enough to make all of Xinlingjun's efforts come to naught.

Shinling-kun at this time. I felt that the world was spinning, as if the end of the world was coming.

"Your Majesty, the Yan army has invaded the territory of Dazhao and has occupied more than ten cities." At this moment, another red-clothed swordsman hurriedly came in and reported to King Zhao Xiaocheng.

"What? Yan Guo attacked Zhao? There was an exclamation, like thunder, that almost tore off the roof of the temple.

Qi State's attack on Wei is shocking enough, Yan State attacks Zhao again, isn't this all messy?

The crowd widened their eyes and opened their mouths wide, all of them dumbfounded.

Even Lu Zhonglian was also stammering, with a look of astonishment.

As soon as he proposed the merger, Yan and Qi were making trouble, can this merger still be successful? Isn't that a slap in the face? He was ashamed and groundless, and longed to get into the crack in the ground.

All of this was the result of Qin Yiren's provocation.

"Good! Good! Good! However, just when the crowd was shocked, someone shouted loudly.

A group of people are looking for prestige, not others are applauding, but Lin Xiangru is applauding.

"You ......" The crowd pointed at Lin Xiangru and collectively lost their voices.

Originally, it was hoped that the joint column would be saved, the Zhao State would be saved, and the two countries of Yan and Qi would send troops, but it was impossible for the joint column to succeed, why did it applaud? It must be that he has lost his mind and is delirious.

"Lin Xiangru, shut up." King Zhao Xiaocheng finally reacted, and rushed to Lin Xiangru is roaring.

However, Lin Xiangru acted as if he hadn't heard it, and said to King Zhao Xiaocheng: "Your Majesty, hurry up and send envoys to send envoys, and you will definitely be able to join forces." ”

"Haha." A laugh rang out, almost tearing off the roof of the temple.

What is Collaboration? It was the six states of Shandong united to deal with the Qin state, and as long as one country did not participate, this alliance could not succeed. The two countries of Yan and Qi are fighting hard, and the situation in Shandong has become a mess, and it is 100 percent impossible for this to succeed, and it will not be possible for everyone not to laugh at it.

"Lin Xiangru is known as a wise man, this is also called a wise man?"

"Whew! So stupid! ”

There are also many people who shouted at Lin Xiangxiang.

"Your Majesty, the two countries of Yan and Qi sent troops at this time in order to get more land and cities, and they have to provoke trouble, as long as their wishes are met, the cooperation will be successful." Lin Xiangru is worthy of being a wise man, and he breaks through the mystery in one word.

"That's right." When Lu Zhonglian heard this, he immediately reacted, his face was happy, and he said, "What Shangqing said is extremely true. Qi intends to recover the lost territory, and as long as it can meet the requirements of Qi State, it will definitely make Qi State withdraw its troops. Yan sent troops, it was because of Yan Zhao's feud, and Yan wanted to get more benefits in this merger. ”

This person is known as the "last columnist", with extraordinary eyes and to the point.

"Reasonable! Reasonable! King Zhao Xiaocheng and Pingyuan Jun reacted and praised loudly.

Xin Lingjun had a gloomy face, without the slightest joy. Because, no matter whether this merger is successful or not, he is convicted of this crime.

"Xinlingjun, if this combination is successful, there is still a lack of a longitudinal appointment." Lu Zhonglian whispered a reminder in his ear.

"Longitudinal length?" Xinlingjun immediately woke up, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "Thank you Xinlingjun." ”

The commander of the longitudinal can command the forces of the Six-Nation Alliance, what kind of majesty is that? can reap infinite benefits, Xinling Jun's heart is alive, and he is determined to get his hands on the longitudinal covenant.

"That being the case, the widow should send an envoy to ask the five nations to send troops." King Zhao Xiaocheng finally decided. (To be continued.) )
