Chapter 138: The Four Nations Conspiracy
PS: There is a chapter before twelve o'clock, but in order to get full attendance, the number of words will be made up later, so don't subscribe. I'll fix it tomorrow. Tomorrow I will write 3900 per chapter, which is considered to compensate everyone. I'm sorry.
Ten days later, the kings of Handan, Han, Zhao, Wei, and Yan gathered together to discuss the state of the country.
King Zhao, who had a smug face, took the lead in speaking and said: "This time, our four countries joined forces to drive the Qin State back to the Guannei in one fell swoop, and the morale of the Qin State is greatly lost!" In addition, the prince of Qin State has made such a fuss, and many courtiers have been exiled one after another, and Qin State will no longer be able to threaten our four countries in two or three years, which is really gratifying. How about drinking this cup together? β
"When the float is white!" King Han, King Wei, and King Yan all spoke.
Last year can be described as the worst year for Qin, since the battle of Yewang, Qin lost Sanchuan, Hedong, Hexi, Nanyang four counties in a row, only got a corner of Taiyuan, Yanmen two counties. The loss of troops is still a trivial matter, and the most important thing is that the myth of the Qin army's invincibility has been completely broken. What's more, the more than 300,000 Qin soldiers who died in the war were behind more than 300,000 families, which was definitely not something that could be restored in a year or two.
After drinking this cup of wine, King Yan took over the conversation and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the widow can protect the temple and the society thanks to the power of the three of them. But this time the Qin State invaded, and our Yan State failed to reinforce in time, and the widow was deeply sorry. Here, I apologize with the wine in the cup. In the future, if there is anything that my Yan Kingdom can help, you can just ask. Please! β
What King Yan said is also true, because of the rebellion of Gongsun Cao, the country of Yan has been turbulent for a period of time. If the Sanjin Dynasty did not send troops to intervene, or if the intervention failed, it would be like in the original history, King Yan waited for nine years and then put down the rebellion in one fell swoop.
However, this time the Qin army was in a good situation. The defeat was so quick that it was a complete accident. If Gongzi City does not commit rebellion and inflicts heavy losses on the King of Qin, according to Bai Qi's command ability, it is completely possible to destroy most of Lian Po and then go south to defeat the Three Jin Coalition Army. At that time, Hedong is not guaranteed or second. I'm afraid that Sanchuan will also change hands again. The situation that Sanjin has managed to create is likely to be in vain.
When the Yan army was halfway through the march, the news spread that the Qin army had fled back to Guannai overnight. The reinforcements of the Yan State, who originally planned to support Zhao Junlian's troops, could only retreat. King Yan also made this remark.
After listening to King Yan's remarks, the kings of Han, Zhao, and Wei drank another glass of wine.
As the master of this room, King Zhao shook his head nonchalantly and said, "King Yan's mind is unknown to King Wei and King Han. King Yan, please rest assured, the great cause of resisting Qin cannot be completed overnight. In the future, there will be an opportunity for you Yan Kingdom to show the demeanor of the Great Yan Iron Horse. β
After hearing this, King Yan nodded, and then King Zhao said in a high-spirited manner: "Everyone, the heart of the six kingdoms of Shandong will not die if the Qin State is destroyed. The widow believed that the tyrannical Qin suffered this great humiliation. Once he is given a chance to breathe, there will definitely be another big move. If we want to fight against the violent Qin, this requires our four countries to work together and fight side by side. In the future, whether the Qin army sends troops to Wuguan or soldiers to Hangu, we can make them come and go, what do you think? β
"Yes! Yes, too! King Wei took the lead in responding.
"Indeed!" King Yan, who has repeatedly seen the failure of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, also agrees.
Han Wangran nodded in agreement.
"The widow said just now, once the tyrant Qin eases up. It's a big disaster. Now only Wei and Korea are facing the Qin army in our alliance, and this is the idea of the widow. How about Han and Wei harassing Qin from time to time? So that it can't take care of the head and tail, not to mention stopping Qin Guohui! It is always excellent to be able to prolong the recovery time of Storm Qin to a certain extent. β
Han Wangran looked at King Zhao quietly, and then looked at King Wei, who was listening, and finally called out "Okay".
Although King Wei had doubts in his heart, South Korea had already agreed. If I refused, it would seem a little unsociable, so I agreed. Anyway, I didn't guarantee that I would harass any Cheng dΓΉ, so I just had to take advantage of a loophole when the time came.
King Han knew what King Zhao was doing in his heart, so he didn't expose it at the moment, but just asked casually: "For example, today except for our four countries." Only the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu, and Qin remained. The widow listened to the meaning of Zhao Wang Fangcai, is it to build yΓ¬ our main force for the time being and develop our military strength? β
"True!" King Zhao nodded in response.
"Now that the vitality of the Qin State has been greatly damaged, the Qi State and the Chu State have also fought to the death, if our four countries do not provoke disputes, others will never dare to harass us. In the eyes of the widow, peace of mind development is the best choice. King Wei, King Han, King Yan, what do you think? β
Han Wangran couldn't wait to achieve such a wish, and he agreed with it: "The vitality of the Qin State is greatly damaged, but our side is not the same? In the case of the outnumbered Korea, as many as 100,000 soldiers were killed in the war. Every family wears linen and filial piety, but the scene is very sad. β
King Wei, who has never understood the customs and customs, doesn't know, he just feels that if he continues to fight, the price of Wei will be greater. After all, his own Hedong was directly under the blows of the Qin State. Therefore, it is extremely necessary to maintain peace, even if it is a short-term peace, with the Qin State. After stabilizing the defense line in Hedong, it is not too late to start a war with Qin. At that time, the Hangu Pass, which belonged to the Wei State, was recaptured, and the Qin State lost the last fig leaf.
Thinking of this, King Wei also smiled and said, "The widow also thinks so." The right to let the Qin State jump for a while. If we blindly attack Qin, the loss will still be secondary, and the gains will outweigh the losses if the two countries of Qi and Chu pick up the cheap. β
"That's true. The state of Qi, in particular, had a rapid increase in war potential after annexing the Surabaya valley of the states of Lu and Chu. The widow thinks that the Qi State is very likely to fall to the Qin State, so how about we destroy Qi together? King Yan said in a shocking voice.
King Zhao frowned when he heard this, Yan and Qi are feuds, and this hatred has to be ruined, and the bad people and temples cannot be dissolved. It is true that Qi Guo is weak, but the counterattack before death can also bite off a large piece of meat on his side, in case it is Zhao Guo himself, wouldn't it be a big loss. Moreover, in King Zhao's view, the Qi State is his own fat, and it is a bit of a loss to share it equally with Han, Wei, and Yan. It is better to keep the Qi country to fatten, and when the Qi country is defenseless, then send troops in one fell swoop.
However, King Zhao couldn't say these words on the bright side. He had just decided to marry Yan Guo, and refusing an inappropriate word could easily cause estrangement, and at the moment King Zhao could only persuade him gently: "King Yan, the widow thinks it's too early to destroy Qi." It is true that the Qi State is swaying from side to side at the moment, but don't forget, the Chu State is now fighting against the Qin State! The world is divided into seven countries, our four countries, Chu and Qin are incompatible, no matter how ignorant of current affairs in Qi is, he should understand that once he dares to support Qin, it will be the danger of extinction. It's better to stay in the Qi State and wait for a few years of cultivation, how about our six countries attack Qin together? β
"Six Kingdoms Attack Qin?" After hearing the words of King Zhao, the kings of Han, Wei, and Yan all secretly thought about the possibility of mentioning yì.
Qin and Chu have already fought each other, and it is very unlikely that the current momentum will ease. Han, Zhao, Wei, Yan, and Chu could completely attack Qin with the Qi army. Compared with the previous feats of cutting down Qin, the current shape shì is simply too good to be better. You know, Wuguan is in the hands of South Korea! This alone saved a lot of effort on the part of the coalition forces.
"The widow thinks it's possible." Han Wangran took the lead in saying.
"Feasible." King Wei said.
King Yan knew that things could not be violated, so he could only respond: "In this way, the widow also agrees with this construction." β
King Zhao was overjoyed when he heard this, this feeling of being the leader of the alliance was really good and good. No wonder so many people envy the five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period, the difference between being a hegemon and being the king of a small country is too great.
"That being the case, we in the four countries should sincerely do our best to fight for the great cause of destroying Qin! The widow mentions yΓ¬, for the peace of the four countries, drink this cup together! β
"Good!" The three kings of Han, Wei, and Yan responded in unison.
It is very tacitly understood that none of the kings of the four countries continued to extend the topic, such as how to send troops, how many troops to send, how to solve the supply problem, how to divide the territory, how to divide the property, and so on. However, for the four countries of Korea, Zhao, Wei, and Yan at the moment, the most important thing is to reach a consensus on peaceful reunification, and as for what will happen in a few years, it will not be too late to discuss it after analyzing and clarifying the situation when the time comes.
"Princess, princess, did you see it, did you see it?" Xiaohe, a maid dressed like a guard, pointed to Han Wangran's figure in the distance and shouted excitedly.
"See!" Ji Miao lowered her head, tidied up the messed clothes, and said "carelessly": "Isn't it King Han." Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the young man in the white Arowana suit! β
I thought he was just a nobleman, and he said that Potian was a royal family, but he didn't expect him to be a famous prince. It's been less than a year since the two separated, and he has become the king of a country again, it's unimaginable!
"Yes! Princess! You see how fate you have. Heroes save beauty, this is something that many girls dream of, let you touch it. What does this mean? This shows that you are a match made in heaven. Xiaohe opened the conversation box and kept talking.
"Alright, alright! A chance encounter can make you say so much. You are speaking for King Han like this, is it because you have fallen in love with King Han? Ji Miao's face flushed when she said something to the maid Xiaohe.
"What the hell!" Xiaohe pinched a corner, lowered his head, and whispered.
"Oops! Xiao Nizi is emotional! You see this blushing face, like an apple. If I were a man! You can't help but take a bite. Ji Miao continued to tease.
"Princess, you make fun of people. People won't tell you anymore. Xiao Lotus said with a red face.
Ji Miao covered her eyes and forced a smile, but the curved eyebrows still betrayed her. It took a long time for Ji Miao to come to her senses, and said unhurriedly: "In this way, King Han's character is okay." looks, so-so barely managed to get into the eyes of this princess. However, this princess requires her husband to be a man with both talent and appearance, and when this princess takes the school examination to test his ability, if he can surpass himself intellectually, it is not too late!
