"The State of Qi sent 100,000 troops to attack the State of Chu." As soon as Han Wangfu saw Zhang Ping and Fan Sui, he informed him of the astonishing news.

Zhang Ping and Fan Sui looked at each other, such a small probability thing really happened! Isn't King Qi seriously ill? Could it be that this news is wrong?!

"The state of Chu is going to retreat?" Fan Sui subconsciously asked.

If I remember correctly, the army of Chu is on both sides of the chasm, and the Surabaya valley can be described as empty. The State of Qi sent troops this time, which can be said to have caught the State of Chu off guard. I am afraid that the will of the Chu State to attack Daliang will be shaken because of this.

King Han nodded, and said calmly: "The soldiers of the Qi State have arrived in Xiapi City. General Jingyang sent someone to tell the widow that Xiang Cheng, the Marquis of Anping, had already led an army of 50,000 to rescue Pi in accordance with the order of the king of Chu. Five days later, he will also return to Chen County, asking us to make plans in South Korea. ”

Fan Sui's brows furrowed even deeper, once the Chu army retreated, the Wei army near Daliang would no longer have any worries and concentrate on dealing with the Korean army, and the shape would become more and more unfavorable to Korea. Originally, the Chu army had 200,000 people, and although there were 50,000 casualties these days, there were also 150,000 soldiers who could fight. Even if the Chu army mobilized 100,000 horses to support Xiapi, only 50,000 people were left east of Daliang, which would be better than not leaving a single soldier in the territory of Wei now.

"Can you order the army of Zhao to cross the river to the south and respond to our army?" Zhang Ping put forward his own idea.

As long as the army of Zhao can cross the river (the Yellow River), then it can break the first line of defense laid out by Wei north of Daliang! Wei was shocked and would have to devote half of his forces to intercepting the Zhao army. As a result, the pressure on the South Korean army will be much less.

King Han shook his head and sighed: "Yan and Qi are gathering armies in Fuliu, and King Zhao has ordered the Zhao army to assemble and stand by. I'm afraid, Zhao Guo can't count on it. ”

"When did this happen?" Prime Minister Zhang Ping looked incredulous.

"Just now, the envoy of Jingyang and the envoy of King Zhao went one after the other, if it wasn't for the confirmation of the identity of the envoy, everyone would have to wonder if this was a trick by the Wei State!" King Han said helplessly.

"It should be the relationship between Wei and Yan and Qi for help, and with the containment of Yan and Qi, Chu and Zhao are afraid that they will accept it if they want to see it. I don't want to join forces with us in South Korea! However, even if we retreat, we can easily occupy the entire county of Hedong. This Wei country. It doesn't hurt to pack up later. Zhang Ping said euphemistically.

South Korea's 150,000 army is now only 130,000, but Daliang is now gathering more than 200,000 Wei troops, without the containment of Chu and Zhao, the best opportunity to attack Wei has been lost. Take it when you see it. nor forced Zhao to hand over Wei Qi. does not negotiate peace with Wei State, and takes Hedong County, no matter how you look at it, it is the best choice for South Korea at the moment.

"Marquis Wenxing, what do you think?" King Han did not answer immediately, but looked at Fan Sui.

Fan Sui said calmly: "Although Wei has an army of 200,000 in Daliang, it is just a rabble. Qin Zhao Wang Fang Fang died, and I have no worries in South Korea. Yan State stationed troops on the border, and Zhao State did not dare to move. Qi State Wars Chu. The state of Chu was unable to look north to the Central Plains. Therefore, the minister thought that this was the best time for us to attack Wei in Korea. Hedong is already an enclave. The king can take it whenever he wants. It is the big beam, which is close at hand, and if the army is withdrawn, it will inevitably fall short for the mountain. It is better for the king to transfer the main force of the army under the command of General Li and Tyrant Taiwei to Wei, and destroy Wei with an army of 300,000. Otherwise, it will be even more difficult to wait for the new monarch of Qin to regain the hearts of the people, reorganize morale, wait for Zhao to eliminate internal worries, and establish the prestige of King Zhao, and want to destroy Wei!

"Is it too early to destroy Wei?" King Han said with some uncertainty.

Indeed, in the current situation, Qin, Zhao, Chu, Yan, and Qi have no intention of participating in the war between Han and Wei, and as long as Korea is willing, it can mobilize enough troops to attack Wei as Fan Sui said. But the question is, will such a grandiose extermination of the Wei State make all countries in the world panic? Wei is not an insignificant country like Weiguo, Zheng, and Lu! After South Korea destroys Wei, it will definitely cause a chain reaction, and the development of things will be beyond South Korea's control. Han Wang didn't like this feeling very much.

But Fan Sui said earnestly: "Your Majesty! Now or never! There's no better opportunity than this! Since Wei persuaded Yan and Qi to send troops, they must have offered quite generous conditions. Perhaps, the Wei State has already decided to fall to the Qi State. The king wanted to win over Wei to crusade against Qin, and Wei must be yang and yin. The destruction of the Qin State did not benefit the Wei State at all. ”

"Now, the reason why Shandong countries do not jointly attack South Korea is because South Korea has won many wars in recent years, and other countries are jealous of South Korea and are afraid of South Korea, and no one is willing to jump out and be the first to oppose South Korea; On the other hand, South Korea is also known for its faithfulness, and its words must be done and deeds must be fruitful. South Korea has been crusading against Qin all these years, and it has not committed any crimes in the autumn of Shandong. However, the Qin State is now stubbornly defending Guanzhong, and it is even more difficult for South Korea to expand its territory if it wants to fight the Qin State again. If Korea wants to develop further, it will be either Wei or Chu, and now, the opportunity to annex Wei in World War I is at hand. What's more, all the countries in the world know that we want Wei to hand over Wei Qi before agreeing to negotiate peace, if the king withdraws his troops, not only will Wei be underestimated, but other princes will also think that Korea is nothing more than that. Once this happens, as Qin did, the possibility of being besieged by the whole world will become very large. ”

"Six Nations Attack Korea?" King Han muttered.

There is also this possibility, the Qin State is conquering everywhere, and it is too powerful, and the six states of Shandong united to crusade against the Qin State in order to protect themselves, and the drama was staged several times during the Warring States Period. But the number of successes is only a handful, and the reason is that the Qin State occupies Guanzhong, and as long as the Hangu Pass is closed, the Six Kingdoms of Shandong have no way. What Qin has is time to sow discord and break up the alliance of the six nations. But South Korea is different, once the six countries invade South Korea, the pressure on South Korea is by no means ordinarily great.

But as Fan Sui said, if you destroy Wei with an inviolable posture, other countries will form an alliance even if they are afraid of Korea! The rise of any great power is accompanied by blood, tears and wars, and it wants to rise peacefully? That's all naïve thinking! King Han had long been mentally prepared that South Korea would be jointly attacked by other countries. As long as South Korea wants to unify the world. That's what happens. But whether to let go of Wei and make this situation come faster or destroy Wei to make this situation come faster, King Han has no idea in his heart.

Zhang Ping seemed a little uneasy, if it really happened that Fan Sui said that the situation of the Six Nations Invasion of South Korea had happened. South Korea does not have the same geographical advantages as Qin, and if it is not handled properly, South Korea's hegemony will come to an abrupt end. In the eyes of other countries, South Korea is a big piece of fat! Enough for all the countries of the world to divide. The dignity of Korea is inviolable, and taking advantage of this great opportunity to destroy the Wei State in one fell swoop seems to be a good choice. As long as South Korea can annex Wei before the rest of the world reacts, other countries can only accept this fact. When the time comes. South Korea, which has grown in strength, will have a great chance of winning in the face of a joint attack by other countries. Because at least. Korea could exchange the land of Wei for time and divide the country.

"The annexation of Wei naturally preserves the majesty of Korea, but will it lead other countries to strike troops and join forces to crusade against our Korea?" King Han said with a solemn face.

"As long as there are enough interests matched. And what is impossible?! Once the Wei State was destroyed. If the five countries invade Korea, there must be an alliance leader. Looking at the strength of all countries in the world, only Qin and Zhao can be the leaders of the alliance. But now that King Qin Zhao is newly mourned, Qin is in trouble with internal and external relations, and has always been at odds with Shandong countries, I am afraid it will be difficult for the leader of the alliance. King Zhao was too young to convince other countries. So, I thought. The candidate for the leader of the alliance alone is enough for the five kingdoms of Qin, Zhao, Yan, Qi, and Chu to quarrel. Not to mention. King Qi has not been in court for several days, and the fact that King Qi is seriously ill is definitely not groundless. The five countries are separated from Germany, and if they want to truly unite against our South Korea, they will definitely not work without years of hard work. This time is enough for us to train a million troops to deal with all countries! ”

"Although the King of Qi is not in the court, but the State of Qi dares to send 100,000 troops to attack the State of Chu, and gathers an army on the border with the State of Yan to threaten the State of Zhao, I am afraid that there will be no big problem!" Zhang Ping retorted softly.

"Bluffing, trying to cover up. If King Qi is really fine, why wouldn't he meet with his ministers?! Fan Sui said lightly.

King Han's face was happy, if King Qi was really seriously ill and could not be a director, and King Qin and King Zhao were both new to the throne and lacked prestige, then taking the opportunity to destroy the State of Wei was indeed a godsend. Of course, this is also a big challenge for South Korea, and if you are not careful, you may die because of it. It's just this thought, starving the timid, supporting the bold, some things, if you don't fight, you are unwilling after all.

"Spread the widow's order, first, send it to Hedong, and the guard Li Mu led an army of 100,000 after receiving the order, immediately retreated from Hedong, and returned to Xinzheng within ten days. Taiwei Storm Kite stayed in the east of the river and stood by in situ. Second, when he arrived in Kaifeng, Meng Fu immediately divided his troops after receiving the order, and took Zhongyang, Yuguan, Jiaocheng, Linxian, Santing, and Changping within ten days, and destroyed Anlingguo. Third, to Nanyang and Runan, order the two places to send 50,000 troops each, and arrive in Xinzheng within half a month. ”

Hearing King Han's order, Fan Sui knew that King Han had adopted his opinion. Ten days of hard work was enough for Li Mu's army to turn back from Hedong. And when the Mengfu army broke into the city of Kaifeng, the Wei troops in Zhongyang, Yuguan, and Jiaocheng were defeated and fled, and those who died in battle, and the only thing that had the strength to fight was the 7,000 Wei army in Linxian. As for the small Anling Kingdom, the land is only seventy miles in radius, and a battalion of soldiers and horses can be destroyed overnight. The king of Han issued such an order, but in order to clear the hidden danger, Korea could establish a direct supply line to Daliang before the arrival of Li Mu's army. After all, the 300,000-strong army conquered the Wei State, and the amount of grain and grass consumed every day was an astronomical amount.

"Your Ministers obey!" Zhang Ping and Fan Sui responded in unison.

"Prime Minister, the preparation for the collection of grain and grass must be paid attention to, and this matter requires you to work hard with Zhisu Neishi and Shaofu!" King Han admonished.

"The minister must do his best to live up to the king's trust!" Zhang Ping made a package ticket.

King Han nodded with satisfaction, and said to Fan Sui again: "This use of troops is related to the rise and fall of the country!" The Imperial Doctor must grasp the dynamics of the hundred officials, and must not let his officials be bribed by other countries and leak the news! ”

Fan Sui also replied: "The minister must be conscientious and conscientious, and trust the whole king!" ”

The whole of Korea became busy because of King Han's edicts, and wave after wave of envoys went to all parts of the country to convey King Han's will. Korea's rumbling war planes had just shown signs of stopping, but they were quietly moving more rapidly because of the death of King Qin.

The first to receive the order of King Han was Lang Zhongling Mengfu. Since receiving the order of the king of Han to wait for the peace of Han and Wei. Meng Fu and the 130,000 army under his command looked a little boring. Across the Danshui is the majestic Daliang City, under the Daliang City, the tents of the tens of thousands of troops of the Wei State stretch for dozens of miles. Like the stars and the moon, guarding the city of Daliang. Because the soldiers of the two countries knew that peace between the two countries was imminent, the atmosphere was not so tense. Everyone knows that if there are no accidents, South Korea will withdraw its troops and return home in a dozen days. As long as Wei Guo can find Wei Qi in time, he doesn't know where to hide.

Seeing that the merit of breaking through the enemy's national capital was in front of him, Meng Fu wanted to watch it miss, and he was naturally very unhappy. If it's ten days ago. With Meng Fu's 100,000 army, it is completely possible to break through the defense line laid by the Wei State along the Danshui, after all. At that time, the Wei army outside Daliang City was only 30,000 or 40,000 people, which is like now, there are 150,000 or 60,000 people.

When Meng Fu received an order from the King of Han. It is required to take Zhongyang, Yuguan, Jiaocheng, Linxian, Santing, and Changping Qiyi within 10 days. After the destruction of Anling Kingdom, Meng Fu smiled happily. It's just that Meng Wei thought that the king of Han was dissatisfied with the speed of Wei's peace negotiations, and wanted to take all the cities of Wei west of the chasm and teach Wei a lesson. I didn't expect that King Han was going to purge the remnants of the enemy, establish a grain route, and prepare the rhythm for the destruction of Wei.

The envoy of the king of Han who gave the order made Meng Fuping retreat from the left and right guards. After telling Meng Fu of King Han's true intentions, Meng Fu suddenly realized. These ten days seem like a lot. But we have to hurry. Meng Fu didn't want to be underestimated by Li Mu. Meng Fu knew that according to Li Mulei's resolute temperament, he would definitely lead the Yulin Army and the Tiger Ben Battalion to rush over first and grab these insignificant credits. If you are slow, no, if Li Mu is too fast, the credit you have received will be gone.

Therefore, as soon as he sent away the envoy of the king of Han, Meng Fu summoned all the generals above the rank of captain and informed the king of Han's order. Of course, the real intention was concealed by Meng Fu, who just said that Wei was deliberately delaying and unwilling to hand over Wei Qi, and the king of Han wanted to give Wei some color to see.

The lieutenants were already holding back fiercely, and when they heard this order, they were naturally overjoyed. The Korean army broke through the Wei army's defense line from Yuguan and Jiaocheng, these two cities have long been frightened, Changping was also conquered by the Chu State, and now the Chu State army has just retreated, and there are almost not many Wei defenders in Changping, and these three cities can almost be passed on. Zhongyang and Anling Kingdom are just small lands, with only four or five thousand troops, and the one who can really cause some trouble for the Han army is only the seven thousand Wei troops in Linxian.

Many captains scrambled for it, and they snatched the quota for capturing these cities because of their qualifications and tickets. Naturally, he was overjoyed, and he was not so depressed about what he lost, because Meng Fu implied that if Wei was ultimately unwilling to hand over Wei Qi, then the army under these people would become the first wave of troops to cross the river and attack Daliang!

On the Hedong side, he received orders from King Han almost at the same time as Nanyang and Runan. The envoy of the king of Han originally thought that he could find the two of them under the city of Anyi. As a result, it backfired, and after many inquiries, I learned that Storm Kite and Li Mu were in Yanshi City, and I also knew that except for Anyi and several cities in the northeast corner of Anyi, Wei had no place in Hedong. The reason why the two and their 150,000 troops did not attack Anyi, but captured all the cities west of Anyi, was actually to give Wei time to assemble, so as to eliminate Wei's Hedong forces in one fell swoop, so as not to make effort.

Knowing King Han's decision, Storm Kite and Li Mu looked at each other and smiled. The Wei State was far easier to fight than they imagined, and the Wei army in Hedong was even more vulnerable. The original majestic Wei Wushu has long been gone, and there are no generals in Wei, and the existing generals follow the rules, be careful or cowardly, and are not Korea's opponents at all. Fan Sui is the imperial doctor of South Korea, and the two of them don't know that Fan Sui is so miserable in the past, but Fan Sui's actions of being so happy and vengeful are very suitable for the spleen and stomach of soldiers. In addition, King Qin Zhao died, and the Qin State is now cautiously guarding South Korea, and where can he dare to attack the idea of South Korea. Therefore, for King Han's decision to attack Wei, neither Storm Kite nor Li Mu objected! It's just that Storm Kite is very opposed to King Han leaving him in Hedong, and he knew that King Han wanted to let him guard Hedong and confront the Wei army, and Storm Kite felt that he should fight for casualties and take the whole county of Hedong. In this way, you can also wave your troops in high spirits and smash the girders!

It's just that the king's order is difficult to disobey, and the tyrannical kite can only watch with envy and hatred as Li Mu leads an army of 100,000 to the south, through Xinzheng, to the Wei State. As soon as Li Mu's army left, excluding the soldiers who needed to stay behind in various cities, there were only 20,000 troops under Tyrant Kite. With an army of 20,000, it is naturally impossible to conquer Anyi, which is heavily guarded by Wei, but it is still possible to add a little trouble to the Wei army. Thinking of this, the storm kite had an idea of its own.

There is no way to do it if the kite is so proactive, although the kite is one of the three princes of South Korea and has a respected status, but Li Mu and Meng Yu and others are the rising stars and mainstays of South Korea. The age of the storm kite is older, and he doesn't know how many years he can gallop on the field, if he doesn't work hard for his title, he will be a marquis, but perhaps he feels that the span between the marquis and the monarch is too large, and the king of Han subdivided the level of the marquis, which is three types: county, township, and pavilion. Storm Kite doesn't want his title as the first person in the military to be overtaken by Li Mu and Storm Kite! (To be continued......)
