King Han was silent in thought and understood Wei Zhe's thoughts. Chu Guo threatened Zhao Guo with him, and he could completely ignore it. Anyway, South Korea's next expansion of territory will fall on the Chu State, and it will not be able to offend the Qi State and the Wei State now. Now, it's not the best time to attack Chu, so let's let the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei, and Chu fight each other! South Korea would just wait and see what happens.

"Aiqing just said that it is easy to save Chu, but it is difficult to break Qi and Wei to covet the heart of Chu; It is easy to cut down Chu, but it is difficult to destroy Qin and Zhao. If we in South Korea are to attack Chu, Qin and Zhao will definitely be hindered in the rear, can Aiqing have a good opinion? ”

As soon as Wei Zhe heard this, he knew that King Han most likely agreed with his opinion. At present, the ministers have words to save Chu, and there are people who say words to attack Chu, and it is still a great risk to put forward this opinion of waiting and seeing. After all, it seems that waiting to see what happens is really negative, and there is no second benefit except for preserving South Korea's strength.

Regarding the question raised by King Han, Wei Zhe has also been thinking deeply for a long time. First of all, Qin, Zhao, and Han were the strongest countries in the world, and any two parties combined could form an overwhelming advantage over a third party. In the past, Qi and Wei increased their power against Korea, and Qin and Zhao did not dare to act rashly. But now, the State of Wei seems to be on the right and left, the State of Qi and the State of Yan are mixed together, and the State of Chu is the next target of South Korea, and South Korea has basically become a loner. Fortunately, Qin and Zhao are now in harmony, and South Korea does not need to worry for the time being. But if it goes on like this, it will not be a long-term solution. After all, Qin Guo suffered the biggest loss from South Korea, and now the dormant Guanzhong is all due to South Korea, and Zhao Guo is even more rare to cut the land and beg for mercy, and the top and bottom are ashamed, and the situation in South Korea is far from being as good as it seems.

"Your Majesty! The minister thought that since Qin Xiaogong, the Qin State had the heart of annexing the Eight Wildernesses and encompassing the Inner Universe. Although he is now trapped in Guanzhong, his coveting of the Central Plains will never be dispelled. Although Qin and Zhao have the name of allies, most of them are incompatible. The Qin State wanted to borrow the road from the Zhao State to enter the Central Plains, but it could not, so it could only pass through the east of the river. Why didn't the king take advantage of this point to make a gap between Qin and Zhao. It is better for me to help one country and fight another country. Wei Zhe said in a deep voice.

Since it can't win over the Chu State to help, and it can't accept the hearts of Wei and Qi, South Korea might as well simply spread out its cards and have a good fight with Zhao and Qin. South Korea has lost Wei and Qi, whether it is Qin or Zhao, and the fear and vigilance of South Korea will be greatly reduced. South Korea can earn the trust of one country and suppress another. Only in this way can South Korea ensure that it will not be suppressed by Qin and Zhao.

King Han suddenly became interested and said, "That's according to Aiqing's words." Is it Lian Zhao or Lian Qin or Lian Qin and Zhao? ”

Wei Zhe replied without hesitation, "The Qin State can't unite, and it should be a joint Zhao to attack Qin." ”

Han Wang nodded approvingly. Qin is a state of tigers and wolves, and it has never been faithful. What's more, Qin Guo was finally bound in Guanzhong by himself. If the Qin State is introduced into the Central Plains again, then Korea will have fun, and I am afraid that when the time comes, the first thing the Qin State will do is to bite back. Instead of embarrassing Zhao Guo.

"Yes! But! Wei Zhe showed an embarrassed expression and said, "The widow is afraid." Zhao Guo also has such an idea, and we South Korea are vain and wrong, and they don't contribute to work, and they want us and Qin to consume each other, and they can also reap the benefits of fishermen! ”

"The king's words are very true!" Wei Zhe made a gesture and said respectfully: "If the alliance of Han and Zhao is as good as the alliance of Qin and Zhao. Such an alliance would not have any effect. The whole country of Zhao is full of profits, and the king of Zhao favors the king of Pingyuan. The king only needs to send a man who can speak well to persuade Pingyuan Jun to lure him, and Pingyuan Jun will most likely agree, and the possibility of King Zhao's opposition is naturally very small. There are 800 miles of fertile fields in the Qin State Pass. Zhao Guo only needs to taste a little sweetness, and he is bound to be unable to extricate himself. Why should the king worry that Zhao Guo will not contribute at that time? ”

King Han secretly pondered for a moment, it won't take long for Zhao Guo to have some turmoil, and this is a place that he can take advantage of. At that time, most of the people who presided over the state affairs were Zhao Sheng, the king of Pingyuan, as long as the king of Pingyuan was convinced, it was indeed not a big problem for Han and Zhao to form an alliance. South Korea worked harder, mobilized more soldiers and horses of the Qin State, and let the Zhao State occupy a hundred and ten miles of Qin land, according to the character of Zhao State to eat meat and not spit out bones, I am afraid that it will not give up the Qin land that has been obtained.

However, the Qin State was too calm during this time, and the garrison on the border was extremely strict, revealing an unusual smell inside and out. This is like the calm before the storm, King Han always feels that there is some big conspiracy brewing in the Qin State. Maybe it is related to the previous envoy of Wei Ran, the prime minister of Qin. I don't know if the Qin State is going to enter the Central Plains through the Hangu Pass this time, or take advantage of the Wei State's unpreparedness to take Hedong. Of course, if the Qin State had the courage to provoke the Zhao State, then the King of Han would definitely raise his hands in favor. If it is just to invade Korea or attack Wei, then South Korea wants to promote the alliance between Han and Zhao, and it is still busy.

"The widow is taught!" King Han decided to adopt Wei Zhe's advice - to stand still and wait for the situation to change.

At the court meeting the next day, King Han announced his decision not to move his troops and neither rescue nor crusade against Chu. This naturally surprised the ministers, and the ministers asked King Han to think twice. Whether it is rescuing the Chu State or crusading against the Chu State, the benefits are very obvious. But if you don't move, you will not only offend the Chu State, but also lose the opportunity to show South Korea's right to speak in the Central Plains, and lose the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. This is very inconsistent with Han Wang's style of taking risks! Nor is it in the interests of South Korea.

King Han explained: "The widow has heard that although the country is big, the warlike will perish. South Korea is famous for its benevolence and righteousness, and the widows dare not bear the legacy of the previous kings, and are willing to preserve the name of South Korea's benevolence and righteousness, win the trust of the world, and recruit people with lofty ideals from all over the world to vote. Qi, Wei and Chu, the widow can't save it, one saves Chu and loses Qi, Wei's heart, South Korea has a violent Qin in the west, and Qiang Zhao in the north, if Qi and Wei are evil to Han, then South Korea will make enemies on all sides, this is not wise! With the strength of the Wei warriors, the wisdom of Wu Qi and Le Yang, they are also hegemonic because of the enemies on all sides, and the outnumbered Korea is not as good as the Wei State of Wei Wuhou, how dare they lead the world to cut it down? Since the widow ascended the throne, Nanyang and Bashu were taken as counties in the south, Hanzhong in the west, and Runan in the east, and the casualties of the soldiers were innumerable, and the homes of Dai Xiao were countless. How can a widow put the sons, husbands, and fathers of tens of thousands of people in danger for the sake of a mere seventy miles of land? ”

"The widows don't support Vachu either. Today, South Korea is trapped not only by the land, but by the people, but by the peace of the people and the service of the people. Bashu Xinding. Runan Xinping, the people's minds are at peace, and it is inappropriate to use swords and soldiers in vain. Shang Tang ruled the world with a land of 70 miles, King Wen was a prince with a land of 100 miles, and thousands of miles of land with few people. Compared with Shang Tang and King Wen, there are dozens of times more, and the people are also dozens of times more. If the monarch and the ministers are single-minded, and the people are dead, why worry about the uncertainty of the world? The Qin State has changed the law for a hundred years, and there is a hegemony, and the princes dare not stop it. South Korea has only changed the law for five years, and now it has Hanzhong and Bashu, and it can compete with Qin and Zhao, which is a fortunate thing that has not been seen in South Korea for 100 years, so don't be insatiable. Desperate for military force. ”

Zhang Ping and Fan Sui glanced at each other and realized that they had fallen in love. No matter how fast South Korea develops, it cannot hide the fact that it has only been five years since the reform of the law. Compared with the Shang Dynasty reform that lasted for more than 100 years in the Qin State, what South Korea lacked was the foundation. Especially in the three counties of Bashu and Runan, local officials have just publicized the new laws of South Korea to the people, and the new laws in Hanzhong are stumbling and have not yet been truly popularized in the whole county. The real implementation of the new Korean law is still in the four counties of Shangdang, Yeongcheon, Sancheon, and Namyang, which are the essence of South Korea. And. The area of Korea is already second only to the state of Chu, and what is lacking is not land. No amount of land can be digested. On the contrary, because the territory is too large, South Korea's forces will be dispersed, and there will be more contradictions.

"The king is wise! No objection! Zhang Ping and Fan Sui said respectfully. Even if King Han's decision was wrong, King Han had already announced his decision in full view of everyone, and those of him as courtiers could only obey. This is also a recognition of the authority of King Han. Otherwise. No matter how favored you are by King Han, you will fall off the "altar" and be swept away!

Thinking of the soldiers who died tragically, Taiwei Storm Kite also sighed in his heart, "One will become famous and ten thousand bones will wither." If it is to strive for a good strategic environment, such as capturing Nanyang and Hanzhong, passing through Bashu, and fighting in the east and west, it is understandable. But if it is for the sake of petty profits, it is really inappropriate. The king has become cautious! At least before the easing of relations with Zhao or Qin, South Korea is afraid that it will not offend Wei and Chu lightly, and staying out of the matter seems to be the best choice at the moment. ”

Thinking of this, the violent kite also seconded the proposal, and said with a resolute face: "The king is wise!" The minister seconded the proposal! ”

Wei Wei Li Mu and Lang Zhong Ling Meng Fu, who have always been close to the king of Han, also spoke out one after another to support the decision of the king of Han, and the rest of the ministers dared to take chances, so they could only second. In my heart, I can only sigh that the expansion speed of my own business bank is slower.

The pawn Chen Xiao quickly told Su Dai of King Han's decision, and Su Dai looked incredulous after hearing it, South Korea was not afraid that Chu would fall to Zhao and was unwilling to rescue Chu? ! Immediately, as if he had been insulted, he was very annoyed, and said with a sneer: "Lord Dianke, is King Han really unwilling to rescue the Chu State?" Qi and Wei are strong, but it is not good for South Korea! ”

Chen Xiao was also helpless, and said with a wry smile: "The holy will is unpredictable!" I'm really sorry, Lord Keqing. ”

Su Dai shook his head and said with a look of regret: "I hope your country will not regret this!" (Sue) retired first! Presumably King Zhao will greet the (Su) generation sweeping the couch! ”

"Don't send it!" Chen Zhen also shook his head, and said in his heart: "Zhao Guo's cheapness is not so easy to earn!" ”

Hexi County, Linjin County.

Bai Qi looked at the tall city in front of him, and a subtle sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Although the city is strong, its defense is so relaxed. Could it be that Zhao really naively thought that Qin was an ally of Zhao and would not come to attack this fortified city on the edge of the river (Yellow River)? Zhao Guo is afraid that he has forgotten that a few years ago, this city was still the land of Qin. Now, he is representing the King of Qin to collect the land that belongs to the Qin State! ”

Behind him, the elite of the 100,000 Qin army was methodically camping and preparing to attack the city. All of them were clear about their mission, and the whole army did not make a single noise. The Qin army was like a silent machine, running silently. But when it attacked, it was indestructible, and no city was destroyed.

"General!" The deputy general Wang Jian walked over calmly and said, "The guards of Linjin have replied, and they refuse to surrender!" It is also said that Zhao Guo has a decapitated general, and there is no general! ”

Bai Qi didn't turn around, but said lightly: "Oh, then as they wish, fulfill their ideal of being a decapitated general!" ”

"Whoa!" Wang Jian turned around and wanted to give an order.

Bai Qi inadvertently instructed: "Sue the former military captain, General Ben's time is very busy, and in three hours, General Ben will see the head of the Linjin guard on the desk of the Chinese military account!" Also, if you kill the Linjin guards, you will be rewarded with two hundred gold. Whoever ascends to the head of the city first shall be rewarded with fifty gold. ”

"Whoa!" Wang Jian looked abrupt, knowing that Linjin's next move would be a stormy attack. With less than 4,000 troops in Linjin, I really don't know how long Zhao Guo can hold out! Qin Guo is gearing up and has been looking forward to it for a long time. Attacking Hedong, the Qin State could not exert its troops. The battle was fought to the extreme. But in the face of Linjin, a city standing on flat ground, although it is a strong city, it is a small strong city, and the Qin army has countless ways to break it. Although the time of three hours is a little shorter, but with such a heavy reward, everyone will die, and Lin Jin is afraid that he will not be able to hold on for two hours.

At the head of Linjin City, the general of the Zhao army looked at the dense and endless Qin army under the city, and a desperate heart was born in his heart. Linjin is too small. It was so small that the city was full of soldiers, but it was only worth a thousand people. According to the experience of the guards, the Qin army on the opposite side numbered at least 100,000, and the leader of the troops was Wu Anjun Bai Qi, who had only been defeated once, the killing god who was almost impossible to defeat. Bai Qi's only failure was because Yiqu was busy returning to Xianyang, so strictly speaking, Bai Qi never failed.

The 100,000 Qin army reflected this piece of heaven and earth into a solemn black, completely replacing the white that should be in the cold winter, like a black ocean. Linjin is like a lone sail in the ocean under a storm, and it is in danger of capsizing at any time. The end of the city's destruction and death was doomed from the beginning. But the generals of the Zhao army were still unwilling to give in. With 4,000 soldiers against 100,000 Qin troops, he used his own body to fight against the world-famous Bai Qi. The eldest husband died a well-deserved death. He is the first line of defense to defend Hexi, and if he surrenders without a fight, he will really lose the prestige of Zhao State. As a soldier, there is nothing more important than one's pride and honor, so General Zhao Junshou decided to fight to the death.

"General! The Qin army is assembling towards the east gate, and it seems that they are planning to attack the east gate. Wang Li of the East Gate asked for reinforcements. Would you like to come over for a while? After all, after all, the number of the Qin army was too much, the general was not there, the army at the east gate was unstable, and many people couldn't even hold their weapons tightly. Zhao Jun's lieutenant general was a little apprehensive.

Speaking of unstable morale in the military. The adjutant general also admitted that his heart was also up and down, and there was even a slight tremor in the two strands. The so-called cowardice before fighting, if anyone sees the silent and endless Qin army a few miles in front of him, he will have a sense of despair, and he will be completely photographed by the military appearance of the Qin State. It's a battle with no suspense at all, but for the sake of that damn honor, I can't escape, and there's nowhere to escape. The most helpless and tragic thing in the world is nothing more than this, no matter how fierce and powerful the enemy in front of you is, you have to show your sword, even if you die, you can only die in a head-on confrontation, and after death, you will turn into a mountain and a ridge.

The guard general sighed, and did not blame the adjutant general's outspokenness, but pointed at the Qin army that was gathering outside the city, and sighed: "The Qin army has no direction for the main attack at all!" If I mobilize the main force to the east gate, the Qin army only needs to launch a small charge at the west gate to take Linjin City. Go and tell Wang Li, I don't have reinforcements here. Let him defend the East Gate for me, even if he dies, as long as the Zhao Army at the East Gate is not dead, the East Gate cannot be lost, do you understand? ”

"The last general understands!" The lieutenant yelled with tears in his eyes.

Oh, yes! All the people are taking care of themselves, and where is the reinforcement here, general! I heard that the Qin army came back, and the people in the city were not worried but happy, they were originally from the Qin country, so how could they be willing to come out to help the Zhao army?! It's a good thing not to come out and make trouble! Zhao Jun really didn't dare to use these wall grasses! At this moment, Deputy General Zhao Jun realized that he was already a lone army, even if the reinforcements were dozens of miles away, there would never be a Zhao army who would dare to abandon the fortified city to rescue Linjin, and the tragic feeling was incomprehensible!

Realizing that his words were a little heavy, General Zhao shook his head and said, "That's it!" That's it! I'd better go to the East Gate! There are no reinforcements, but I still have them! Zhao Jun wants to conquer Linjin, unless he steps over my corpse! Otherwise, it is impossible! ”

"General!" The adjutant general raised his head abruptly and said resolutely: "The general just guards here!" The last general personally went to the east gate to take up the town. When we arrived at the East Gate, the last general would definitely resist the Qin army with all his might, so that the Qin army would think that we had transferred most of our troops to the East Gate. In this way, when the Qin army attacks from the west gate, the south gate, or the north gate, we will come by surprise and kill the prestige of the Qin army! At the very least, kill Ben back! ”

The guard nodded again and again, and said with satisfaction: "Okay! That's it! Go ahead! Let the people of Qin taste the power of our Zhao Army! If you want to go to Linjin, you can! Trade your life for it! Ha ha! ”

"General! Treasure! The lieutenant clenched his fists and said resolutely.

"Take care!" The guard will not say much, and he will not say anything, and this farewell may be goodbye. The friendship between men, life and death, is by no means something that can be expressed in words.

Outside the east gate, Wang Lizheng commanded his battalion of soldiers and horses, intending to launch the first wave of offensive. The first wave of the offensive was a blow from the Qin army with all its might, and the Qin army had already collected the information about Linjin - the number of crossbows defending the city of the Zhao army was very small, and as for the archers, the Qin army would use an arrow array to tell the other party, compared to the archers, the Zhao army was far from the level of the Qin army.

The west wind is blowing, and the war is in a hurry. (To be continued......)
