Chapter 33 Joining Forces to Fight Qin

"The king is wise, I don't know how many troops the king is willing to send?" Although Lu Zhonglian had long known that the alliance would be successful, when King Chu Kaolie personally confirmed it, he still couldn't help but be a little happy.

The merger was proposed by Su Qin, and when Su Qin was alive, he joined the alliance many times, creating great trouble for the Qin State. It is precisely because of this that the Qin State worshiped Zhang Yi as the prime minister, and achieved good results by linking the horizontal and the vertical.

Since Su Qin's death, from time to time, there are people who are mentioning the combination of the vertical and running for the combination, however, the number of successes is much less, far less than when Su Qin was alive.

Lu Zhonglian is known as the "last vertical and horizontal family", he learned the way of vertical and horizontal, with a three-inch incorruptible tongue to go to the world, wanting to join forces to resist Qin, he exhausted his life's strength without success. This time, he finally succeeded in accomplishing such a great thing, which was the first time in his life that he had accomplished such a great thing, and he was extremely happy.

"The land of Da Chu is rich in things, there are many mouths, all along, the time of the joint longitudinal is always the most, this time the widow originally wanted to send 300,000 troops, just because after the first battle of Zhongmu, the vitality of Da Chu was greatly injured, far from recovering, so it can only send 200,000 troops." King Chu Kaoli was a little regretful.

Since Su Qin proposed the merger, every time he merged, the Chu State always sent the most troops, because the Chu State had the most mouths and the most land and cities, so it was not a problem to send more troops.

Moreover, this longitudinal commander (equivalent to the modern commander-in-chief of the coalition army) is assumed by the person who sends a lot of troops, and the state of Chu swears to win this commander, because it will show the majesty of the state of Chu.

This time, King Chu Kaolie wanted to send more troops and horses, but because the first battle of Zhongmu caused heavy losses to the Chu State, he couldn't get more troops if he wanted to.

200,000 is not less, and Lu Zhonglian is still satisfied. Nodding. Praise said: "The king is wise." The public is selfless, everything is important to the world, Zhonglian admires. “

"Huh." Lu Zhong even made King Chu Kaolie very happy, and with a smile on his face, he said, "I don't know how many troops other countries are willing to send?" ”

The Wei envoy hurriedly said: "Great Wei sent 100,000 troops. ”

"One hundred thousand?" King Chukaoli nodded, but he was also satisfied. The city mouth of Wei is far from being comparable to that of Chu, and it can send more than 100,000 troops. It can be seen that the king of Wei hates the Qin state. And it's no wonder. Who told Wei to be beaten badly by Qin?

"What about Yan Guo?" King Chukaoli turned his head and asked.

"Dayan is narrow and has few people, and the army is limited, so it can only send 100,000 troops." Yan replied hurriedly.

Yan is located in the north, and there is a lot of land, just because the north was not developed at that time, it is an extremely overdeveloped land, and there are not many people, so it is commendable to send 100,000 troops.

"What about the Han envoy?" King Chukaoli asked.

"Daehan is willing to send 100,000 troops." Han replied hurriedly.

"Okay." Korea was defeated by the Qin State again and again, and a large number of land cities and cities were taken away by the Qin State. Today's South Korea is extremely weak, and it is good to be able to send 100,000 troops. King Chukaoli was very satisfied.

"What about Qi Guo?" King Chu Kaolie's eyes widened, and he stared at the Qi envoy desperately.

The State of Qi has always been the sworn enemy of the State of Chu, and King Kaolie of Chu was very worried that the State of Qi would send too many troops and steal the limelight of the State of Chu.

"Daqi has long since lost its pomp and circumstance, and it is unable to participate in such an attack, but Daqi belongs to the land of Shandong, and it cannot watch the tiger wolf Qin State run rampant, so Daqi has to send troops this time. 50,000, Daqi can only send 50,000 troops, and there is really no more. "The envoy of Qi has already received the will of the queen, and he must be low-key in this joint army to fight against Qin, and he must not be too showy.

"The people of Qi also know that the country of Qi is not as good as it was back then? Don't you want that barren land? "King Chu Kaoli is very annoyed with Qi Guo.

The two countries of Chu and Qi have been fighting for decades for a barren land, not to get land, but to fight for a breath, and King Chu Kaolie is squeezing the Qi country.

Lu Zhonglian was afraid that Qi would be annoyed and spoil the big thing, so he hurriedly diverted the topic and said with a smile: "Da Chu has sent the most troops, according to convention, this longitudinal appointment should be Da Chu." ”

"That's right." Although the longitudinal covenant is very popular, and all the countries want to be it, but this has to be determined according to the number of troops, and the number of troops sent by the four countries of Hanyan, Qi and Wei is far inferior to that of Chu, even if you want to be it, it is useless, so you have to give it to Chu.

"Huh!" King Chu Kaoli was comforted by Lu Zhonglian's sycophancy, and let out a burst of laughter.

After laughing, King Chu Kaolie waved his right hand lightly: "This matter of longitudinal appointment, according to the widow, this time there is no need for Da Chu to be in charge." ”

"Ahh An exclamation sounded, and everyone looked surprised.

Since Su Qin joined forces, the head of this longitudinal agreement has been served by the Chu State, and even Su Qin, the initiator of the joint column, cannot serve as the chief of the longitudinal agreement. No one thought that King Chu Kaolie would give up the post of chief of the longitudinal covenant, which was the first time since the merger, and it would not be possible for everyone not to be surprised.

"Your Majesty, no." Li Yuan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stopped it.

Since his sister Li Yan was very favored by King Chu Kaolie, Li Yuan's status has risen, and now although he is not Ling Yin of Chu State, he holds the real power of Ling Yin, which can be said to be a high power. Li Yuan really wants to be the chief of this longitudinal appointment, that is a shortcut to improve his status and power, how can there be a reason to let it out.

"Humph!" King Chu Kaolie was a little uncomfortable when he was swept away by Li Yuan, and he snorted lightly, but Li Yuan didn't dare to say more.

"Dare to ask the king, who is the right person to be the chief of the longitudinal covenant?" Lu Zhong hurriedly asked, his eyes full of hope, and he thought to himself, "Could it be me?" ”

Su Qin, the initiator of the joint longitudinal agreement, can't serve as the longitudinal chief, if he serves as the longitudinal chief, what kind of scenery would it be? Don't say that you really want to be the chief of the longitudinal appointment, just thinking about it makes Lu Zhonglian happy Mo Ming.

Many people thought that this longitudinal appointment was none other than Lu Zhonglian, and they all set their eyes on him.

"I think this matter must be Xinlingjun." King Chukaoli's words came as a surprise to everyone.

"Xinling-kun?" There was an exclamation, and everyone's eyes were focused on Xinlingjun.

Xin Lingjun sat alone in the corner, very unnoticed, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked.

Today's Xinlingjun is no longer the "virtuous son" who responded to all calls in the past, but just a desperate water dog, and he is very despised by people. If it weren't for King Chu Kaoli mentioning it, no one would pay attention to Xinlingjun.

"Me?" When Xinling Jun heard King Chu Kaolie's words, he couldn't help but be surprised, his eyes were round, and his face was incredulous.

He never dreamed that the high position of the longitudinal governor would fall on him, and he would not be shocked.

Immediately afterwards, Xin Lingjun was overjoyed, his eyes flashed, and without waiting for everyone to speak, he hurriedly said: "King Xie!" ”

"Hmm." King Chu Kaolie looked at Xinling Jun, a smile on his face, and just hummed softly.

Xinlingjun understood, and hurriedly said: "The grace of the king's cultivation will be rewarded without taboo. ”

Xinlingjun naturally understood the meaning of King Chu Kaolie to make him the chief of the longitudinal covenant, and he was giving him a boost to his status. Xin Lingjun and Lu Zhonglian came to Chu at the same time, and asked King Chu Kaolie to oppose Qin, but King Chu Kaolie did not accept, Lu Zhonglian left angrily, but Xin Lingjun stayed, and the reason why he stayed was because Chu Kaolie told him something that made him feel excited.

King Chu Kaolie's ear at that time was "I am willing to be a king".

The meaning of this is to ask Xinlingjun if he wants to be the king of Wei, can Xinlingjun be willing? In the past, although Xinling Jun had long had the intention of replacing King Wei, it was only because he was afraid of his "virtuous name" that he concealed it and never took action. Today's Xinling Jun, his reputation is not as good as in the past, he has become a lost dog, he can't go back to his home, he can't vote for a country, what else does he have to scruple about?

If he wants to return to Wei, he can only rebel, kill the king of Wei, and become the king of Wei himself. Otherwise, he would have to die of old age. Because he killed Jin Cong, King Wei would not let him go no matter what.

Xinlingjun dreamed of being the king of Wei, but because he had no power and power, he couldn't succeed. King Chu Kaolie wanted to support him, how could Xinling Jun be unwilling, this was the reason why he did not leave with Lu Zhonglian.

Now, King Chu Kaolie actually gave him the high position of the longitudinal appointment, which is to give him a chance and ask him to take advantage of it. As long as this thing is done, Xinlingjun's reputation and prestige are beyond people's reach, and with the support of the Chu State, Xinlingjun only needs to ascend to the heights and shout, and the responders gather, so why is it difficult for him to become the king of Wei?

Of course, there is no free lunch, and King Chu Kaolie will naturally repay him for raising Xinling Jun to the high position of King Wei. Xinling Jun naturally understood what King Chu Kaolie meant, and immediately proposed that there was a good reward, which made King Chu Kaolie very happy, and he smiled very happily: "Hehe! Xinling Jun is serious, serious. ”

"Xinling Jun is famous all over the world, and he is a virtuous son in the world, and it is very suitable for him to serve as the chief of the longitudinal covenant." Although Lu Zhonglian was a little unhappy that Xinlingjun did not leave the Chu State with him, he would not compete with Xinlingjun for this position.

Lu Zhonglian had long had the idea of letting Xinlingjun usurp the throne, and planned a lot for him, otherwise, after the Battle of Changping, Xinlingjun would not have left Wei to go to Handan to gain fame.

With Lu Zhonglian's intelligence, he would not fail to understand the intention of King Chu Kaolie's move, and took the lead in supporting it.

"That's right, Xinling Jun is extraordinary, righteous, and famous, who would dare to be the chief of the covenant?" Han envoy Qi envoy Yan envoy was busy responding.

For the three kingdoms of Han Yan and Qi, it doesn't matter to them who is the king of Wei, and they can't be guilty of offending King Chu Kaolie for this matter. Besides, if Xinling Jun wants to do something usurpative, it will inevitably cause chaos in the Wei Kingdom, and maybe the three kingdoms of Han Yan and Qi will still be able to reap some benefits.

If you are not afraid of chaos in the Wei Kingdom, you are afraid that the Wei Kingdom will not be in chaos!

The only unhappy thing is that the Wei envoy is in power, and Xinlingjun's gain of power means that the king of Wei has no good life. You must know that Xinlingjun was almost made the crown prince, he has always been a thorn in the side of King Wei, a thorn in the flesh, King Wei really wants to kill him, but he has no chance. Xinlingjun's momentum, can Wei make it cool?

However, the overall situation has been decided, and the Wei envoy does not dare to say anything, unless he dares to offend the four kingdoms of Chuyan, Han and Qi.

"Dare to ask the commander, when will the army be raised?" The overall situation has been decided, and King Chu Kaolie is very happy, and he is busy asking Xinling Jun.

"The soldier is fast, so naturally the faster the better. This time, I will lead the army to press to Hangu Pass, and I will definitely break through Hangu Pass and wipe out the Tiger and Wolf Qin Kingdom! "For the first time in his life, Xin Lingjun took on this heavy responsibility, his self-confidence swelled, and he spoke wildly.

"Good! Xinling Jun has many ambitions, and this trip will be a success! ”

A cheer sounded, and everyone present was full of confidence, thinking that they could destroy the Qin State. (To be continued......)
