The same situation played out in Yingdu. Su Li, who successfully persuaded the King of Wei to increase his troops on the border of Wei and Chu, bribed the close ministers around the King of Chu with a lot of money, and with the influence of his brother Su Dai in the Chu State, he was able to meet the King of Chu Shun.

At this time, it coincided with the Chu army attacking Tancheng for ten days without falling, and the Qi State continued to increase its troops, and Xiang Cheng, the Marquis of Anping, repeatedly asked for more troops, and the King of Chu was originally reminded. After learning the news that Wei suddenly increased its troops to the border, he was even more hesitant.

Su Li grasped the psychology of Chu State's fear of war, and as soon as he came up, he exaggerated the situation that the Qi and Wei alliances were imminent, and the Chu State was about to be in trouble. The king of Chu argued strongly, saying that the state of Qi was the object of siege by Yan and Chu, and it was the state of Qi that should be worried, not his own state of Chu.

Su Li argued that with the land of Qi for 2,000 miles and 400,000 soldiers in armor, it was enough to resist the invasion of Yan State. The Wei State coveted the Huaisi land of the Chu State for a long time, and was too busy to pass through the east of the river and had no time to take care of it. Now that Hedong has been decided, and Zhao has just been defeated, Wei has a great victory, just taking advantage of the Qichu sandpiper and clam to fight, and his own fishermen have profited!

The king of Chu is a believer and seeks a plan. Su Li took advantage of the situation and put forward the idea of befriending the Qi State and resisting the Wei State together. He also said that with Qi and Chu ten times the land population of Wei, millions of people, Wei could only succumb. The two countries work together to defeat Wei and gradually encroach on Wei, then the north of Chu can compete with Zhao, but the west can be the chest of South Korea, and the hegemony will start from this!

The king of Chu was immediately moved, thinking that Qi and Chu could stop their troops and shake hands and make peace. Su Li sighed repeatedly, saying that for Qi Guo, there is not much difference between Lianchu and Wei and Wei, and whether it is Lianwei and Chu. Now that the State of Chu has captured the two hundred miles of land of the State of Qi, the State of Qi cannot give up. If the Chu State wanted to reach an alliance agreement with the Qi State one step earlier, it could only take the initiative to hand over the captured land.

The king of Chu was stingy and naturally refused. Compared with long-term interests, the king of Chu attaches more importance to the tangible interests of the moment. These two hundred miles of land were fought down by the Chu State. Returning it to the State of Qi for no reason is by no means the style of the State of Chu! For a moment, the two sides were at a stalemate.

At this time, Zuotu Huang Xie happened to have an urgent matter to visit the King of Chu and learned of Su Li's intention. Zuo disciple Huang Xie immediately persuaded the king of Chu and said: "Your Majesty! Wei is a country of good fortune, and now Wei is stationed on the border of Chu and Wei. It is nothing more than seeing the emptiness of our Chu State in the Huaisi Valley. It is better for the king to gather a large army and go to Huaisi, so as to prevent Wei from having different intentions. The king sent another envoy to lobby the king of Wei, expressing his willingness to divide the land of the old Lu (country) with Wei equally. The minister dared to guarantee that the king of Wei would definitely abandon the decision to attack Chu and turn to attack Qi instead. ”

King Chu was immediately happy when he heard this, why didn't he realize this, and immediately looked at Su Li with interest. Su Li was silent on the surface, but he began to panic in his heart. He was confident that he could use his three-inch incorruptible tongue to bargain with the king of Chu, and then let the king of Chu agree to cede the land and form an alliance with the state of Qi. But Huang Xie is a well-known virtuous minister. I'm afraid it's not going to be easy today.

After a haha, Su Li made a distressed look, and said earnestly to the King of Chu: "Although there are 400,000 soldiers of the Chu State, the elite soldiers are all near Yingdu. If the king joins Wei to attack Qi, because the soldiers of Qi are strong and strong, it is difficult to attack, and if Chu sends more troops, Yingdu will be empty, and if he sends fewer troops, Chu will gain less. On the other hand, in the Wei State, the monarchs and ministers are single-minded. There is the sage of Xinling Jun and the courage of Jin Contempt. Wei Xin's wisdom, coupled with the fact that Wei was close to Qi and densely populated, the benefits obtained by Wei and Qi must have been far greater than those of Chu. The state of Qi is weakened, and the powerful state will be the state of Wei. Once the Wei State passes through the Huaisi again, what will the Chu State use to resist? Opposite. The king of Qi was unconscious, and although he had a field, he did not reuse it, but squeezed him out of the court. If the king unites Qi to attack Wei, Qi and Wei will definitely weaken each other, and it will not be Chu that will benefit at that time? ! ”

When the king of Chu heard this, he also said the same thing. Turned to look at Huang Xie to the left. Huang Xie directly broke the flaw in Su Li's words and said: "The Central Plains, the land of the four wars." Neither Zhao, Qi, Han, nor Chu wanted to see the strength of Wei. But in the same way, no country will sit back and watch other countries destroy Wei and become self-reliant. According to what Mr. said, the King of Qi is unconscious, so how will the State of Qi do what Mr. said to repel the Yan State? The king of Qi is deaf, will the state of Qi be defeated, and then only our state of Chu and the state of Wei will be the enemy? If the state of Qi and the state of Wei are deadlocked, on a par, our state of Chu will naturally go north along Suishui, and two hundred miles northwest of Suiyang is the beam, and every ten miles forward, the more people of Wei will be, the wider it will be, how can the state of Chu continue? Therefore, the minister thought that it was inappropriate to cut Wei! ”

After a pause, Huang Xie continued: "It is true that the soldiers of the Qi State are strong and strong, but Tian Dan is gone, and the Qi State is in turmoil. Therefore, the people of Lu (country) are elegant, the combat power is not high, and the country of Qi is south of the Great Wall, although the soldiers and horses are numerous, they are unbearable to fight to the death! Collapse at the touch! ”

After hearing this, the King of Chu greatly agreed, nodded, and admitted: "What Aiqing said is good! The people of Wei are prosperous, and it is not easy to attack! The widow went to Huaisi to increase troops according to Aiqing's wishes, and joined Wei to fight Qi? ”

Su Li was in a hurry, and looked at his brother Su Dai on the side as if asking for help. Su Dai groaned slightly, probably knowing that his younger brother should have come to lobby for the Qi country.

Signaling Su Li with his eyes not to be impatient, Su Dai said slowly to the King of Chu: "The so-called distant water can't save the near fire, and the minister thinks that whether it is to increase troops to Huaisi or join Wei, it will not be able to immediately solve the crisis brought about by the increase of troops in Wei. It is better to send an envoy to lobby Korea, if South Korea can contain Wei, then the danger of Wei will be eliminated. At the same time, he and Qi made a false and false snake, creating the illusion of an alliance between Qi and Chu, and confusing Wei. This proposal of land cession is naturally impossible to agree to the Qi country. However, the king could have sent Su Li as an envoy to lobby the king of Qi. If the State of Qi agrees to form an alliance with the State of Chu without us ceding the land, the minister thinks that it is not impossible to join forces with Qi to resist Wei. ”

Su Dai's opinion was obviously different from Huang Xie's opinion of "Lianwei Vaqi", but Huang Xie said to the king of Chu with a smile: "The minister thinks that Keqing's opinion is feasible!" ”

The King of Chu was completely stunned, didn't his left disciple understand? What Su Dai said was "Lianqi to resist Wei"! It's not the "Lianwei Vaqi" that Huang Xie has been boasting about all kinds of benefits just now!

Seeing that the King of Chu was puzzled, Huang Xie stepped forward and whispered to the King of Chu, leaving Su Li and Su Dai with a stunned face, the two originally thought that they would have to have a quarrel with Huang Xie! Now it seems that it has been saved. The face of the king of Chu was also happy and worried, and finally said happily: "Sir, are you willing to go to Linzi for the widow?" Discuss an alliance! Of course. The premise is that the widow will not cede the land and will not return the land! ”

In the entire hall, the only one who can make the King of Chu call Mr. is naturally Su Li. Although it was a little different from his expectations, Su Li, who had experienced the turmoil of "Lianwei Warqi", was already glad that he could achieve his current goal. Of course, he replied respectfully: "I am willing to serve the king as a dog and horse!" ”

The ensuing episode can be described as a turning of peaks and loops, and later historians can only attribute it to historical inevitability when studying the historical materials of 267 BC. The sparks of this year have given countless history buffs infinite reverie, and history has completely flowed in an uncontrollable direction in this year. And irreversible!

On January 10, the state of Zhao, which was stationed in Zhongshan, lost patience more and more. Yan Guo did not give Zhao the answer he wanted, but instead responded to the pressure exerted by Zhao with additional troops and repairing the city wall. In order not to disappoint the Qi State that had just "defected", for the sake of the hundred miles of land promised by the Qi State, and for the dignity of the Zhao State, Zhao Guo decided to teach his northern neighbor - Yan State a lesson. The countries that were busy waiting for Yan and Zhao to start a war to see the excitement, including the party Zhao Guo, did not realize that Fuliu, the last fortified city in the west of the Hexi River of Qi State, suddenly opened the city and surrendered a few days ago. The Yan army in the middle of the river (the Yellow River) and Zhangshui quietly retreated to the other side of Zhangshui. The Qi army quietly crossed the river and occupied the place where the Yan army had withdrawn. One qiē seems to be calm, and one qiē seems to be tacit.

On January 11, Zhao Hao was ordered to lead 80,000 troops to attack the Yan army in Hexi. The high-morale Zhao army was majestic and high-spirited, thinking about how to chase the dead and chase the north and show his skills, and Zhao Hao was also full of spirit. There is the state of Qi on the back of the abdomen to contain the Yan army. The Yan army is bound to not be able to take care of everything, and a big victory is definitely hand-to-hand.

But this time. The meticulous work of wandering in the Qi State told sù a fact that Zhao Hao couldn't accept - the kings of Qi and Yan made a bloody alliance on the border between the two countries, and the two countries, which were supposed to be enemies of life and death, laughed and feuded, and the Qi army, which was supposed to help Zhao, became the enemy in a blink of an eye - the allies of the Yan army!

No matter how talented a screenwriter is, he can't think of such a script, but he was born in Zhao Guo and staged in front of the world. Zhao Guo has undoubtedly become the best background! It's like a woman you like who has been violated by others and stands up bravely. If you want to fight the grievances, teach that rascal a good lesson. Everyone is looking forward to the performance of the hero saving the beauty, in the eyes of the audience, the hooligan will inevitably be driven away, and the hero will gain the hearts of the beauty. What a moving ending. What a happy ending! But the reality is very bloody, the beauty actually went from the hooligan, the two hooked up together, and accused the hero of being nosy! Zhao Guo undoubtedly played the role of a hero, Qi Guo was the beauty, and Yan Guo was the hooligan.

This is enough to explain Zhao Hao's disappointment and anger after hearing the news. It is impossible to march, the front is not as simple as the 80,000 Yan army, there are also local battles and a steady stream of Qi troops. Such a change was obviously beyond the scope of Zhao Hao's decision, so Zhao Hao ordered someone to hurry up and pass the news to Handan and leave it to King Zhao to decide.

King Zhao panicked when he heard the news, thinking that this is okay, the Qi State that he has always coveted and the Yan State with strong soldiers in the north hooked up together, and Zhao Guo still has a good life?! Then he was angry, Lu Zhonglian actually deceived the feelings of the widow in this film, and said that he would lobby Qi to cut the land? ! The Qi State ceded the land, but it was given to the Yan State, in exchange for the end of the decades-long confrontation between the two countries.

Summoning a group of cronies to the palace as quickly as possible, King Zhao did not shy away from talking about the current predicament of Zhao. is to advance, defeat the Yan and Qi alliances; Or retreat, temporarily avoiding the Yan and Qi alliances. No matter how you look at it, this is a very bold decision. King Zhao does not lack courage, but he lacks the ability to accurately analyze the pros and cons. King Zhao hoped that while the news of the alliance between Yan and Qi had not yet spread to the world, Zhao would make the most favorable decision.

Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao has been training in the army for a long time, and has become more and more mature and steady, because of the guidance of famous teachers, he also looks at the problem more and more directly. As a member of the royal family, seeing that his brother Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains, was silent, he immediately said: "Your Majesty! The minister thought that Yan and Qi had just met and were in full swing, and it was not easy to cut down at this time. It is better to do the trick of wanting to capture the old people, wait for Yan and Qi not to notice, and overcome it in one fell swoop, or cut down Yan or Qi, and force the alliance between Yan and Qi to dissipate! ”

King Zhao's brows furrowed subconsciously. This is different from my original intention, but there is some truth to it. Since Yan and Qi dared to ally generously, they were ready to fight with Zhao. With the assistance of the Qi State, the Zhao State wants to capture the Hexi Land of the Yan State, I am afraid it will not be easy! Moreover, what he is most afraid of is the division of Qi Guobing. Take advantage of the situation to disrupt the southern part of the Zhao State. At that time, Zhao will also divide its troops, and Yan and Qi can completely play Zhao with the soldiers and horses of the two countries, so that Zhao will be exhausted.

Yan Zhou shook his head and objected: "Everyone in the world knows that our Zhao State wants to go out for the Qi State to crusade against the Yan State, but now the Qi State has turned its back on Zhao and is close to Yan, and this Zhao State is also ashamed!" If the king does not send troops to attack the Qi State, he is afraid that the morale of the soldiers of the Zhao State and the hearts of the people will be hurt, and the world will laugh at the Zhao State being played by the Qi State. The prestige of the king is affected, and the so-called king humiliates the ministers to death, who in the world will come to the king?! Therefore, the minister thought that no matter how big the casualties were, our Zhao State would immediately counterattack Yan and Qi, especially Qi State. If the king trusts Weichen, the minister is willing to raise troops to kill Linzi, with the hatred of the snow king! "After saying that, immediately kneel down and ask for your life!

King Zhao was very moved. This is the loyal minister I like. The king humiliated his ministers to death, and being played by Lu Zhonglian of Qi State is equivalent to Zhao State being played by Qi State. If it was when King Qi Min was alive. The national strength of the Qi State is comparable to that of the Qin State, and the Zhao State is naturally afraid of the Qi State and will tolerate it. But now that Zhao Guo's national strength is far superior to Qi Guo, why should he bear it?! Tolerating everywhere will only make people feel that the monarchs and ministers of Zhao Guo are cowardly, and let the world despise Zhao Guo!

Personally helping Yan Zhou up, King Zhao said with emotion: "The widow knows Aiqing's loyalty. But this matter is related to the general trend of the world, and it is necessary to ignore it, and it is better to think about it in the long run! ”

Yan Zhou wanted to argue about something, but was stopped by King Zhao. King Zhao looked at Lin Xiangru and said sincerely: "Lin Shangqing." How do you think we Zhao Guo should deal with it? ”

Lin Xiangru sighed and said, "This matter is very tricky! Now the whole world knows that Zhao wants to help Qi and attack Yan, and the king asks Yan Guo Chen to say that it is powerful, but Yan Guo still refuses to ask Zhao Guo for convincing, so naturally he has a heart of disobedience. For the sake of the stability of our Zhao State's rear, even if there is no hundred miles of land promised by the Qi State, it is inevitable to suppress the Yan State. What Qi Guo did pushed our Zhao State to the cusp, and it was impossible to show the prestige of Zhao State, to maintain the dignity of the king and Zhao State, and to deter Xiaoxiao! But the minister also knows that the first alliance of Yan and Qi, the more urgent our Zhao State is, the more firm the alliance of Yan and Qi. On the contrary, if we turn a blind eye to the alliance between Yan and Qi, or even send people to drive a wedge between Yan and Qi, it will not take long for Yan and Qi to be separated. At that time, the king will send another old man, and the generals will not exceed 100,000, which is enough to make the Yan State surrender and the Qi State to invite the court. ”

After hearing this, Ping Yuanjun nodded secretly in his heart, Lin Xiangru said that every word was true, but it was precisely because the words were true that it was even more difficult to make a decision. On the surface, the advantages and disadvantages of sending troops immediately are as obvious as those of sending troops later, and no matter who comes, it is impossible to say which must be right and which must be wrong. From the perspective of interests, it is naturally better to send troops later. But from the perspective of maintaining the prestige of Zhao Guo, it is natural that the sooner the troops are dispatched, the better. The real interests of money and food and the image of Zhao as a big country and a strong country are both important, but they can't have both, and King Zhao wants to take care of both, so the problems of the courtiers naturally come.

I only heard Lin Xiangru continue to analyze: "The minister thinks that the people who want it are none other than Zhao to attack Yan and Qi in a hurry, so Qin and Han are watching from the wall, Wei and Chu are gloating, Zhao, Yan and Qi are weak, and the four countries are celebrating each other. Since it is the desire of the countries, it is not for the Zhao country. Therefore, the minister thinks that he should act slowly and think in the long run! ”

Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao glanced at Lin Xiangru with appreciation, and his thoughts were consistent with Lin Xiangru, that is, there was no need for Zhao Guo to fight back at the Qi and Yan alliances so quickly. The more urgent Zhao's attack became, the more solid the relationship between Qi and Yan became. It's better to divide and dissolve, send people to separate the two countries, wait for the two countries to look like they are separated, and the Zhao State will subdue the Yan State with a thunderous blow in one fell swoop, and make the Qi State invite the court, wouldn't it be better? ! It's better to have a real interest than an illusory reputation! This time, it was Zhao Guo who was accidentally blinded by Qi State, and when everyone had their eyes, it was not as exaggerated as Yan Zhou said that the lord humiliated the ministers. If Zhao Guo can't even see through this, it will really make the rest of the countries gloat!

"What does the prime minister mean?" A trace of disappointment crossed King Zhao's eyes, and he said in a calm tone.

Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains, noticed the strangeness of King Zhao, but he didn't show it, and said calmly: "What Zhao Guo is convinced of by the world is the national strength!" Although the alliance of Yan and Qi is strong, it is far from enough to threaten our Zhao State! The reason is that the two countries are not working together! If you don't have the same heart, you are a rabble! If the king makes a haste to attack a country, or tempts a country with benefits, it will surely turn against it! Now that Yan and Qi are provoking our Zhao State, if the king does not respond, the world's attitude towards Zhao State will change. Even, even the Qin State will despise us! What does our Zhao State rely on to win over the Wei State for our own use? Therefore, the minister thinks that when the two countries of Yan and Qi are defeated! (To be continued......)
