Regarding Lejian's statement, King Han was noncommittal, but said with interest: "I would like to hear what Mr. said!" ”

Le Jian is not panicked, to deal with a good and assertive king like King Han, he must analyze the pros and cons, instead of talking in generalities, it is impossible to expect King Han to agree to Yan Guoqi in a few words, but once the other party agrees, Yan Guo will benefit greatly, and this risk is worth taking.

"I heard that the Central Plains is where the dragon's qi is, and those who win the Central Plains will win the world. Guanzhong, the spine of the world, the dragon head of the Central Plains. The summer capital of Anyi, the capital of Shangtang, the capital of Zhou, Yongluo, are all the countries of the Central Plains! Now that the king's South Korea includes Luoyang, clamping Guanzhong, if you want to destroy Zhou, it is as easy as a snap! However, the minister thought that it was not advisable to destroy Zhou. ”

"Why?" King Han spoke out about the school test.

Lejian smiled and said: "Luoyang, the land is only a hundred miles, the people are not more than 10,000 households, it is where the Son of Heaven is, like a chicken rib ear, it is not of great benefit to the growth of South Korea's strength, and it is very harmful to the name of benevolence and righteousness in South Korea." ”

King Han nodded secretly, Zhou Tianzi was just a fig leaf for countries to annex each other in this era. Although all countries do not take the Son of Heaven seriously, and even have long lost their tribute, it is undeniable that if anyone dares to destroy Zhou, other countries will occupy the moral high ground and can jointly crusade. Those who were as strong as the Qin State also destroyed the Zhou State after defeating the Shandong countries without the power to fight back. King Han believes that South Korea is not strong enough to be the enemy of the world, so he naturally does not want to be in the limelight and become the target of public criticism.

Lejian continued: "The countries in the world that can compete with South Korea are only Qin and Zhao! Although Qin and Zhao are now fighting against South Korea. But the minister thought that this situation would not last long! ”

King Han finally showed a little interest, and couldn't help asking, "How did Mr. come to such a conclusion?" ”

Lejian said confidently: "The Qin State originally guarded the land of Gong and Luo, relying on the danger of mountains and rivers. Watching the Central Plains, but he was defeated year after year, retreated to Guanzhong, and Guanzhong was a succession of civil strife, which is the so-called resourcefulness and courage are in trouble! Zhao raised troops in Handan and took Taiyuan first. Re-Ke Hexi, invincible. However, now it is not allowed to advance an inch, which is not only taken advantage of by Qi and Wei, but also cuts off China to South Korea. South Korea has won successive battles and is famous all over the world. Now that the fate of Qin and Zhao is in the hands of you, the king, if you help Zhao, Zhao will win! If you connect with the Qin State, the Qin State will benefit! At present, although Qin and Zhao are united, they have suspicions. Zhao was afraid of Qin's entry into the Central Plains. Resentful of Qin's failure to rescue Handan when it was besieged; The Qin State was troubled by the Hexi and Taiyuan occupied by the Zhao State, blocking the way for the Qin State to advance into the Central Plains. As long as the Hedong and Hangu passes of Wei are not captured by Qin, it will not be long before Qin and Zhao naturally part ways, and then it will be the time for Korea to benefit! ”

Seeing that King Han showed joy, Le Jian continued to bewitch and said: "The minister is privately thinking about the king, it is better to let Qin and Zhao get the benefits, and coexist together, and divide the world into three parts." Stand on your feet! In this way, no one will dare to take the lead! According to the king's wisdom, 500,000 armored men in Korea. Unite with the Yan State and send troops to the empty land to control their rear. Obeying the will of the people, holding the banner of Zhou Tianzi, he went west to stop the fighting between Qin and Zhao, and saved the soldiers from death. Encroaching on Wei to the east. Capture the land of Huaisi. People in the world, who dares to disobey! The king appeases the princes with kindness, surrenders his hands to live in peace, and courtesies the wise men, then the princes of the world will compete to worship Korea. Not twenty years. The stronger the Korean and the weaker the princes, the king gathered half of the world's population and financial resources, marched west to destroy Qin, and collected 800 miles of Guanzhong. Then go north to destroy Zhao, make the princes surrender, and change the dynasty, it is as easy as a reversal! ”

King Han nodded, admitting that the other party's idea was good, but he also heard the other party's voice, so he asked, "King Yan wants to crusade against the Qi Kingdom?" ”

Lejian was deeply moved, and said, "Yes! Qi and South Korea do not share a border with each other, and even if South Korea cuts Qi, it will only get a few enclaves! Yan Country is different, the land that has the size of Qi Country is the size of Yan Country! Compared with the King of Qi, who was bent on recovering the prestige of the Qi Kingdom but was subordinate to the king, King Yan was undoubtedly more sincere and respected the king more! The Yan State will fight Qi, and the Qi State will inevitably resist to the death. When the time comes, the two countries will weaken each other, and it will be South Korea that will benefit, or you, the king! ”

Seeing that King Han was still hesitant, he said indirectly: "The country of Qi is near the sea, and there is a lot of salt, so the country is rich. There are many plains and enough food, so the population is large. There are river (i.e., the Yellow River) moats in the north, mountains in the south, and sea barriers in the east, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. If the king allows the development of the Qi country, ten years later, I am afraid that he will not be able to control it! Yan country, far away from the Central Plains, vast and sparsely populated, has the trouble of hindrance in the east, and has the enemy of strong Zhao henchmen in the west, only by sincerely attaching to South Korea, can there be a chance to breathe! And King Yan is the queen's brother, known for his faithfulness, but King Qi is greedy for small profits, not worth deep friendship! The minister thought about it again and again, thinking that the king had been fooled into agreeing to King Yan's request! ”

King Han secretly thought about it in his heart, the population of Yan Country limited Yan Country to make it difficult for Yan Country to make great achievements! The land between the rivers is no more than 100 miles wide, in other words, no matter how much land Yan has in Qi State, there is a possibility that it will be cut in half by Zhao State at any time and divided into two! In this case, once Yan Guo made the decision to attach himself to South Korea, he could indeed only go all the way to the black. The geographical location of Qi is too good, and King Han should use it and beware of it, but it is better to unite with Yan State!

Thinking of this, King Han finally got up and said, "Sir's plan!" The widow is convinced! But if the State of Chu sees that the State of Yan is attacking Qi, it will also be cut down, what can be done about it? ”

It is naturally good to weaken the Qi State, but it cannot let Yan and Chu divide the Qi State. Otherwise, wouldn't it have raised two more powerful enemies?!

Le Jian waved his hand disapprovingly, and replied: "The Yan State has no more than tens of thousands of soldiers, and the same is true of the Chu State. The State of Qi is raising the troops of the whole country to resist, so isn't it just right to weaken the State of Qi? The more Yan, Chu, and Qi are weakened, the more Korea's prestige can affect the Three Kingdoms! Isn't this exactly what the minister said to make the princes come to worship Korea? ”

King Han laughed and said, "With Mr.'s talent, wouldn't it be a pity to succumb to Yan Kingdom!" The widow heard that the brother of the gentleman is the new lieutenant of Yingchuan County! Why don't you come to the widowed South Korea, so that the two brothers are in a high position together, which is also a beautiful conversation! ”

Le Jian excused himself: "Before his death, my father instructed his ministers to serve King Yan, and the ministers did not dare to disobey his will. What's more, the role of the minister in Yan Kingdom to the king is far greater than the role played in Xinzheng! ”

King Han's eyes rolled and he asked casually, "Mr. proposed such a good idea. Isn't it disloyal to King Yan? ”

Le Jian suddenly had a cleverness in his heart, knowing that if he answered a little carelessly, he would give up all his previous efforts. However, he forced himself to reply calmly: "Yan Guo can enjoy peace, and all the people can live and work in peace and contentment, which is what my father has always pursued. The minister thinks that he has not failed King Yan and his father! To help the king is to help the Yan Kingdom. There is no conflict between the two! ”

King Han sighed for a long time, and said with emotion: "Sir is really a loyal and righteous person! ”

Three days later, carrying the heavy gifts given by King Han, the group embarked on the return journey back to Jicheng. In the Zhaoren Palace, Fan Sui, the imperial historian, said softly to King Han, who had corrected the recital, with a respectful face: "Your Majesty! Chang Guojun is gone! ”

King Han put down the brush in his hand, stretched his muscles, and said with a smile: "What does Wen Xinghou think of Lejian's opinion?" ”

Fan Sui pondered for a moment and replied: "Although it is not hit, it is not far away!" ”

King Han came to be interested. Smiled and asked, "Where is the shortcoming?" The widow wants to hear it! ”

"Your Majesty! The minister thought that the strength of the Chu State was far beyond the consideration of Lejian. If Qi, Wei, and Chu want to surrender, it will take a lot of time for us in South Korea! Twenty years is not enough! ”

"Hehe, the widow knows what Wenxinghou means, and the widow will not be ambitious! However, our ten-year covenant is still very confident that it will be completed ahead of schedule! King Han quipped.

Fan Sui looked excited, since the night talk of Da Liang. King Han never mentioned this matter again, and Fan Sui thought that King Han had forgotten about it a long time ago! Unexpectedly. Han Wang always remembered, but he just didn't say it!

King Han saw Fan Sui's expression in his eyes, if a king wants his courtiers to be loyal to him, he must be true to his word, otherwise the order will change overnight, and it will not be messed up! There is no intention of asking for credit. King Han said lightly: "The widow has just received the news from Xianyang Xizuo, does the Marquis of Wenxing know where Wei Ran, the prime minister of the Qin State, went a few days ago?" ”

"It is rumored that Wei Ran is recuperating at home, is it fake?" Fan Sui said in surprise.

King Han shook his head and said with a smile: "Recuperation is fake!" It's true to go out on the basis of illness! It was reported that Wei Ran was secretly sent to the Wei State, although the specific content is unknown. But it shouldn't be a good thing to think about it! Of course, it's a good thing for you! ”

Fan Sui nodded and replied: "If Wei is not conducive to our Korea, the king must send troops to take Hangu Pass, even if it is to give up Hedong." Sanchuan County is much more important than Hedong County! ”

Indeed, as Fan Sui said, even if Hedong falls into the hands of Qin, Korea also has Taihang Mountain and Heshui (Yellow River) moats to defend. But if the army of the Qin State is allowed to enter Sanchuan, it will be dangerous. The Qin army can march to Yingchuan and Runan in the east, and Nanyang, Hanzhong and Bashu in the south, and even if Korea repels the Qin army, the price paid will not be small. The biggest possibility is that neither side can help the other, and the three rivers are divided equally.

"The widow has already sent people to strengthen the intelligence collection of Xianyang and Daliang, if Wei State rebels, it is indeed not good for us in South Korea! Just take precautions! However, if Wei turned his back on Han, Marquis Wenxing thought that the widow should send a large number of soldiers? King Han asked.

The so-called lying on the couch does not allow others to snore. Wei and South Korea are close to each other, and if they are co-opted by Qin, it can be a big trouble for South Korea's henchmen! King Han was hesitating in his heart, whether to take advantage of this great opportunity to destroy the Wei State in one fell swoop, or to hit it hard! The only thing to worry about was the influence of Korea to destroy Wei. The Wei State is far from being comparable to the likes of Wei Guo and Lu State. Other countries are bound to be frightened and jealous of South Korea. However, which is more beneficial to South Korea between the huge interests and the maintenance of the name of Korean faith, King Han has not yet made a decision in his heart, so he wants to listen to Fan Sui's opinion.

Fan Sui saw that King Han was not so fanatically excited, and knew that King Han was just talking casually about the destruction of Wei, rather than coveting it for a long time, so he first put his mind at ease before slowly saying: "The minister thinks this matter is inappropriate!" ”

"We in South Korea just defeated Zhao a few months ago, and Zhao Guo ceded his land and begged for mercy. If Wei turned his back on Han, Zhao would be happy. At this time, Wang Shang sent troops to attack Daliang, which was suspected of destroying Wei, and was undoubtedly the enemy of the world. Qin and Zhao will inevitably lead troops to rescue, and Qi will be worried about following in the footsteps of Wei, so they will also send troops to rescue Daliang. As for the State of Chu, the king of Chu is well-interested, and where Qin, Zhao, Wei, and Qi are fighting Han, how can they stay out of the matter? As soon as the general trend is complete, even if Yan Guo wants to help us Korea, he will be afraid and dare not go south. South Korea is strong. How can he be the enemy of the whole world? At that time, Bashu is in turmoil, Qin takes Nanyang, and Hanzhong, and the situation that Wang Shang has managed with great difficulty will be burned and ruined! I think it's inappropriate! ”

"The widow is taught!" King Han sighed and said, "The Qin State has surrounded the beams. Zhao, Yan, and Qi have been rescued repeatedly, but Gai Mo is because of the truth that his lips are dead and his teeth are cold, and he does not want the Qin family to be dominant. It is indeed inappropriate to destroy Wei. The widow also thinks that even if Wei is not benevolent, we can punish it slightly, and we must not let Qin and Zhao take advantage of each other! ”

Fan Sui bowed and replied, "The king sees it!" Today's troubled times can be described as the Warring States, and the seven heroes of the Warring States are levied on each other, each with victory and defeat. The victor takes hundreds of miles of land, and the loser crosses other countries to resist it. The king can take over the vital and rich land of the Wei State. But don't lightly attack the capital of Wei. When the minister heard this, he put boiling water in the kettle, put the frog in the kettle, and the frog jumped in distress. Put the kettle with cold water, put the frog in the kettle, the frog swims well and does not know how to jump, and then the kettle is heated with firewood, although the frog wants to jump. Can't either! Attacking Daliang was like putting Wei in boiling water, which would only make Wei deeply worried about Korea. Why doesn't the king take the three cities today? Tomorrow to attack the five cities, in the long run, Wei State does not feel pain, wait for South Korea to be full-fledged, not afraid of the union of all countries, the king sent troops to smash the beam. Wouldn't it be better if the whole Wei State would inevitably surrender?! ”

King Han laughed, if he remembered the real yàn of boiling frogs in warm water, he should have done it by foreigners at the end of the 19th century, and he didn't think that the ancients also knew this truth. But. The truth of the story is good, but it is fabricated. However, King Han himself would not point it out, but on the contrary, he admired Fan Sui's outspokenness.

Fan Sui was a little inexplicable, but in his heart he was happy that he had "convinced" King Han. For a while, the monarch and the ministers were also happy.

Chu State, Yingdu.

Receiving the generous gift sent by King Yan, the King of Chu was overjoyed, and thought that the status of Chu had improved a lot. Otherwise, how could King Yan, who was thousands of miles away, send important ministers to give gifts for himself!

After careful consideration, since he returned to Yingdu from Chen County, good things have continued one after another. Qin and Han scrambled to win over themselves first, and then the state of Chu attacked the city and uprooted the fortress and obtained 500 miles of land. Now South Korea attaches great importance to the Chu State, and the Qi State and the Wei State do not dare to harass the Chu State, and the Yan State in the far north respects the Chu State even more. As for the Qin State, which was cowering in Guanzhong, and the Zhao State, which was trapped in the north, none of them could harass the Chu State. The king of Chu only felt that his life was very comfortable. Traveling in the car to Yunmengze, visiting the goddess of Wushan, and feasting guests, can this life not be comfortable?

The eldest husband Ju Xin made a gesture to the king of Chu who was playing with jade, and said: "The minister came to visit the king on behalf of King Yan this time, but there is a great gift!" If the king receives, it is far better than ten horses outside the palace! ”

"Oh?" The king of Chu stopped playing with the jade, and the horses outside were all thousands of horses! The other party actually said that there are greater benefits to give! The king of Chu immediately asked impromptuly: "Dare to ask where Chang Fuli came from?" ”

"Benefit in Huaisi!" Ju Xin said bluntly, "The land of Huaisi is mostly plains, rich in products, many people and wide grain, comparable to the land of two counties!" If the country of Qi gets it, it will be strong, and if the country of Chu gets it, it will be strong! Yan now has the heart to avenge the feud with Qi, once Qi and Yan go to war, Huaisi will inevitably be empty, this is a great opportunity given by God to the king. The minister thought that for the sake of the Chu State and the king, the king would send troops to fight Huaisi! ”

The King of Chu's face was happy, he had been coveting Huaisi for a long time, if it wasn't for the fear that he couldn't beat the Qi State, he would have sent troops to fight a long time ago. Now that Tian Dan has been dismissed, the place where he lives in seclusion - the East China Sea belongs to Huaisi, if Huaisi can be taken, wouldn't it be possible to catch Tian Dan together? However, could this be Qi Guo's strategy? Tian Dan is a famous general! Even if the prime minister is gone, the prestige is there! For a moment, the King of Chu showed a hesitant look!

Ju Xin naturally didn't know what the King of Chu was thinking, and thought that the King of Chu was worried that the laborer would go on an expedition and be discovered by the Qi State. Immediately continued to lobby: "The land of Chu is four thousand miles, there are 400,000 soldiers in armor, and there is Yan State to contain the main force of Qi State, and the king can go down to the land of Huaisi in a battle!" Having Huaisi, the king can covet the land of the old Lu (country) in the north, and the Wei country in the west, which country in the world dares not to pay attention to the king's Chu country! All countries will definitely send important ministers to make good friends with the Chu State, and this is a great benefit! Don't miss the opportunity, lose it again! ”

King Chu nodded, naturally knowing the benefits. When Han and Chu changed places, South Korea once promised that as long as Chu attacked the land of Huaisi, South Korea would never stop it. Therefore, at least the state of Chu does not have to worry that South Korea will intervene. The only thing that the king of Chu is worried about is that Tian is single in the land of Huaisi, and Jingyang, who can compete with him, has not yet healed from his injuries, and the king of Chu is worried that he will lose the battle and hurt his morale!

"The eldest man will go down to rest first, and the widow will give you an answer tomorrow, how about it?" After speaking, without waiting for Ji Xin's reply, he arranged for the eunuch to take Xi Xin down.

The order hurriedly summoned a few important ministers, and as soon as the prince of Chu met, he asked: "The Yan State wants to attack Qi, and wants to send troops to Huaisi to contain the Qi State, what do you Aiqing think?" ”

"I think it's possible! The land of Huaisi is mostly plains, with many people and wide grain, which can be compared to the land of two counties! This big profit too! Can't help but take it! Prime Minister Mi Liang was the first to come forward in favor.

Zuotu Huang Xie also seconded the proposal: "The minister also thinks it is feasible!" Gained, the west can pass through the land of the Song Dynasty, go straight to the beam, and the north can resist the Qi country. ”

The two important ministers expressed their attitudes, and the newly favored minister Su Dai also spoke: "The land of Huaisi is the foundation of hegemony, the Yan State is the foundation of the hegemony, the Yan State will attack Qi, and the Qi State will inevitably hoard a large army on the northern front, and my Chu State will go down the Huai River, it is not difficult to take it!" Yan and Chu echo the north and south, and it is easy to defeat Qi! The minister also agreed with the matter of Vaqi, and recommended Xiang Cheng, Marquis of Anping, as a general, to capture the place for the king! ”

Xiang Cheng said with a solemn face: "As long as the king is willing to believe in Weichen, the minister will take the land of Huaisi to repay the king!" ”

King Chu nodded, and he was relieved to get such a guarantee. As for Tian Dan, he is just a person who has fallen out of favor, for the sake of safety, it would be a big deal to send someone to assassinate him! Now that the henchmen and ministers are all in favor of Vaqi, if they are still hesitant and not beautiful, they will agree to Yan Guo's request! The land of Huaisi! After all, it still belongs to the Chu State! (To be continued......)
