With the initiative of the main forces of the Qin army in Hexi and Hedong counties to retreat, the soldiers of Han, Zhao, and Wei took a large area of Qin land without blood.

On March 11, South Korea took the two cities of Michi and Xin'an, Wei broke the martial arts, and Zhao went to Xiyang. On March 20, Zhao broke Puyang, South Korea went down to Pingyang and Jiangcheng, and Wei occupied Quwo and Anmen. On March 26, Zhao Guo went all the way south, Lianke Shaoliang and the surrounding seven cities, South Korea recaptured Xincheng and Yangren, and Wei was like a bamboo, connecting the five cities of Fenyin, Zhi, Puban, Yangjin and Yanshi.

At the same time, the Qin State hoarded heavy troops around the cities of Dingyang and Anyi. Zhao and Wei could not attack for a long time and suffered heavy losses, so they could only give up the plan of attacking and besiege the city instead.

From then on, Wei occupied all the counties of Hedong except for Anyi. The land with a radius of 300 miles east of the river, south of Fenshui, and north of Weishui was restored to Wei.

Zhao obtained all the areas between Fenshui and Heshui, and its influence spread across half of Hexi County, opening up a territory of 500 miles.

South Korea seized a large area of land east of Michi, Wusui, and Jiangdi, and the strategic living space increased sharply, and the entire Zhou royal family was wrapped in it.

Chu State, Chen County.

The Qin delegation trekked all the way through mountains and rivers, which lasted half a month, and finally arrived at Chen Ying next to Yingshui.

Chen Ying's original name was Chen County. After the Qin State pulled out the Yingdu, it took the Jingling in the east, attacked Anlu, took the Yiling in the west, and burned the tomb of the first king of Chu. The king of Chu dispersed, disappeared in Chengyang, and moved the capital to Chen. In order to show that the state of Chu did not forget the shame of the capital of Ying, the king of Chu ordered to change the name of Chen County to Chen Ying, which was the capital of the state of Chu.

The first thing the king of Chu did after arriving in Chen County was to summon Zhuang Xin to Chu. Zhuang Xin had admonished the king of Chu not to favor the Marquis of Xinzhou, Xiahou, Yan Lingjun, and Shouling Jun before Bai Qi attacked Chu, and to take state affairs as the priority, but the king of Chu did not listen, and then left Chu to go to Zhao. Now realizing that he is extravagant, the king of Chu decided to change his past wrongs, awarded Zhuang Xin to govern Gui, and was named the king of Yangling.

In the following years, the king of Chu had the style of a wise monarch, a pro-virtuous minister, and a far villain. Collect the soldiers from the east, get more than 100,000, and take the 15 towns next to the river occupied by Qin as counties to resist Qin.

The news of Qin's loss of 200,000 troops and the chaos in Guannei was already known to the Chu State. They all thought that it was better to take advantage of the internal turmoil in Qin than to capture Yingdu. When Gongzi City and his party stepped into Chen County, the State of Chu had in fact collected an army of 100,000 and was ready to send Jingyang as a general to attack Yingdu, which was the so-called Southern County of Qin. If it is a qiē shun lì, the Chu army will also go north to Nanyang and approach Wuguan.

The arrival of the Qin delegation made Chen County a "sensation". The Qin State attacked the Chu State three times, "the battle was not invincible, the attack was not taken, and the block was not broken". The state of Chu not only lost a large part of its territory, but also killed and injured more than 600,000 people.

Many of the people of Chen County fled from other places following the king of Chu. Even the aborigines of Chen County had many relatives who died at the hands of the Qin State.

Qin and Chu have such a deep hatred, naturally there will not be a Chu person who pretends to be a pretense to the Qin delegation. The polite ones are angry, and the unceremonious ones have already begun to throw rotten leaves, rotten eggs, and even stones to welcome the arrival of the Qin delegation.

The situation did not improve until the king of Chu sent a guard to escort him. In this way, the Qin State delegation was heavily protected, and entered the post station step by step.

When they entered the post station, except for Childe City in the carriage, the rest of the mission was all wolf. After a little tidying up, Gongzi City rushed to the palace to ask to see the king of Chu, but the eunuch refused to report to the Qin delegation on the grounds that it was getting late and the king of Chu was resting.

When he couldn't ask to see the king of Chu, Gongzi City visited the magnates of Chu State in a row that night, but they were all turned away. There are those who are sick, and there are those who go to bed. Some are polite, and some are cold.

The next day, Gongzi City and his entourage were allowed to participate in the "Early Dynasty" of Chu State after being hung for two hours! At this time, it was already the third pole of the sun, which made Gongzishi have to sigh, "The early dynasty of the Chu State is really early!" ”

After eating so much, the rest of the mission was already indignant, but Gongzi City seemed unusually calm. He is right, but what good is it for him to succeed? The credit for resolving the crisis of the Qin State is still attributed to the King of Qin, and he has at most gained a reputation for diligence. He is in a high position, and he has long been rewarded, and he has no seal. But if the mission fails, King Qin's reputation will be the first to suffer, and he will be defeated repeatedly, and his royal brother will have a hard time.

Of course, Childe City knows that he is playing with fire, and the slightest carelessness will be the end of **. But since Childe City dares to do this, he naturally has his own plans. All he had to do was make his trip look very successful, but it was also going to bury hidden dangers. When the time comes, you have made meritorious contributions to King Qin, so why not do it!

"The king has an order, and the envoys of the state of Xuan Qin will come to see you." With the shrill voice of the eunuch Ling, Childe City walked into the court.

When I looked up, I saw a boiling oil pot standing in the court hall of Chu State. The deputy envoy of the Qin State immediately changed his face, and subconsciously looked at Gongzi City beside him. Childe City naturally discovered this anomaly, but his face remained unchanged and he was calm.

"Who is the one in the audience?" The king of Chu asked knowingly and took the lead.

"The envoys of the Qin State, the Marquis of Wan and the Emperor of Gaoling, Zhao City, meet the king." Childe City greeted him with neither humility nor arrogance.

"Hmm." The King of Chu snorted arrogantly, and then said, "Your envoy is not enjoying the blessings in Xianyang, what is the so-called matter of coming to my Chu State?" ”

"I am ordered by the monarch of our country to make friends with Qin and Chu. This is the letter of the king of our country, please read it to the king. As he spoke, he took out the certificate of state from his bosom and handed it to the eunuch order.

The king of Chu snatched the letter of state from the eunuch order, threw it on the ground, and rebuked loudly: "The Qin State is the feud of my Great Chu, there is the hatred of flooding the Yingdu in the front, and there is the humiliation of burning the tomb in the back. Is this what you call friendship? Is it really disadvantageous to be a soldier with such a play? ”

After speaking, without waiting for Gongzi City's reaction, the King of Chu shouted at the guards outside the door: "Someone! ”

"In!"

"Throw these two Qin envoys into the oil pan and fry them!"

After hearing this, the guards wanted to come in and execute, and the face of the deputy envoy of the Qin State became even paler, and his face was colorless. Gongzi City laughed, making the entire court secretly suspicious. Could it be that the envoy of the Qin State was stupid, not only did he not beg for mercy, but he was also very happy!

"Slow down, king!" Zuotu Huang Xie stopped the guards, turned to the king of Chu and said, "The Qin envoy came from afar, and the words have not yet been finished, if the king cooks them with oil, the ministers are afraid that the prestige of the king will be damaged if it is spread out, saying that my great Chu has no room for people." And the two countries are fighting each other, and they will not be killed! Please also think twice. ”

"Humph!" The king of Chu was arrogant, but he didn't say anything to refuse. The rest of the ministers of the Chu State also looked at Gongzi City with interest, but none of them pleaded.

"It seems that there are still smart people in the Chu State." Gongzishi smiled and said without mind: "I, Daqin, did capture the capital of your country, and accidentally burned the land of Yiling. In order to win on the battlefield, it is human nature to do everything for the generals. Your army is brave and good at fighting, and our army has no choice but to make this decision. But this is the sin of war, and it is not the intention of my king. Now that the king of Great Qin has realized that it is not the one who invaded your country, I am willing to rebuild the old friendship with your country, stop fighting and stop the army, I don't know what the king thinks? ”

"Just based on the words of your envoy, if you say that you will strike the army, are you a decoration for the army of my Chu State?" The king of Chu is unrelenting, although the Qin State knows that it is wrong, but the mistake is too big, how can the Chu State forgive!

"In order to show our sincerity, our country is willing to return your country's Yingdu and the surrounding land of 200 miles." Childe City lures to profit.

"Hahaha!" The king of Chu seemed to have heard the best joke in the world, and said sarcastically: "Your Qin State has lost no less than 200,000 troops in the two cities of Yewang and Yique, and now there is chaos in the internal area, and Han, Zhao, and Wei are attacking the two counties of Hexi and Hedong outside, and I am afraid that you will be too busy to take care of yourself." You don't need to pay it back, just take it for yourself. ”

Childe City was not angry, smiled calmly, and replied: "I don't know where the king's confidence comes from?" It is true that my Great Qin lost 200,000 troops, but he can still gather an army of 700,000 or 800,000 overnight. Now although the Yiqu is raging in Guanzhong, the more the war is fought, there are less than 50,000 left, and my Great Qin will be able to completely annihilate the Yiqu in a few days. As for the two counties of Hedong and Hexi, our Great Qin army is no less than 200,000, and the capture is insufficient, and the defense of the city is more than enough. However, the king now has only 200,000 soldiers in the whole country, and he is on an expedition, and I don't know how much chance of victory is better than the 80,000 male soldiers of my southern county. ”

The face of the king of Chu changed, but Gongzi City was unforgiving, and said: "The danger now is just because of my Daqin's carelessness. As soon as the Yiqu is destroyed, my Daqin will no longer have any worries, and when the time comes, the soldiers will send out the Han Valley, and the land of Hedong and Hexi counties will be returned to my Daqin. Then our country sent Wu Anjun to lead the army to support Nanjun, isn't the king worried about another defeat? ”

"But our monarch is merciful and does not want the two countries to fight for years. I am willing to turn hostility into jade silk and offer 200 miles of land for peace. The sincerity of this heart can be learned from heaven and earth. I hope the king will see clearly! ”

"Humph! Are you Qin Guoguo so kind? There are no conditions, but it doesn't hurt to say. The king of Chu scoffed at this, the Qin State has never made a loss-making transaction, and there must be a plan.

"Han, Zhao, and Wei must have all the ambitions of the world and expand their territory everywhere if they won this great victory. My Great Qin has the solidity of the Kui Han, and it is not enough for the three Jin Dynasty to join forces. The expansion of the three Jin Dynasty to the west is not conducive to the inevitable turn. Looking at the three kingdoms of Yan, Qi, and Chu, only your country is the weakest at the moment, and the three Jin Dynasty are very likely to attack your country. If the Three Jin Dynasty invade, how can your country resist it? ”

Gongzi City first threw a bomb to intimidate the Chu State, and then said: "Although my Great Qin can defend against the Three Jin Dynasty alone, I don't want to add more casualties, so it is imperative for Qin and Chu to form an alliance. If the Three Jin Dynasty advance westward, then your country will attack and disturb the north, and if the Three Jin Dynasty go south, then I will send a letter to the east of Qin. In this way, the Sanjin is bound to be exhausted, and our two countries will be safe. ”

Ministers, you have to admit that this is a good plan. Although the Qin State was defeated, its strength was still there. If the soldiers can take back Yingdu without blood, the strength of the Chu State will also be restored a lot. Only a few ministers believe that Qin is a country of tigers and wolves, and they have always been untrustworthy in their words, so they should decide carefully.

"Good! Then, according to what your envoy said, my Chu State is willing to form an alliance with your country. But you must first return Yingdu to show your sincerity. The king of Chu made the final decision.
