The Jin army was to make an alliance with Wei Linggong in Guo Ze.

Zhao Guanzi said: "Who of your subordinates dares to make an alliance with Wei Jun? ”

The two doctors, Shi Lun and Cheng He, said, "I can go." ”

At the league meeting, Wei Guo asked the doctor of Jin Guo to grab the cow's ear to take blood.

Cheng He said: "Weiguo is a small country, just like our Wen County and Yuan County of the Jin Kingdom, how can it be equated with a princely state?" ”

He was about to smear his lips with blood, but Wei Jun dipped it in blood first, and held his hand down, and the blood flowed to his wrist.

Wei Jun was angry, and Wang Sun Jia hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The oath is used to affirm propriety and righteousness, like us Wei Jun, how dare we accept the covenant without obeying propriety and righteousness?" ”

Wei Jun was insulted and wanted to defect from the Jin Kingdom, but he was worried that the doctors would not obey him. Wang Sunjia asked him to stay in the suburbs and not enter the capital.

When the doctors asked him why he was doing this, Wei Jun told them about the insult he had received from the Jin Kingdom, and said:

"As the king, I have insulted the country, please choose another successor, I obey him."

The doctors said, "This is a disaster for the defense of the country, is it the fault of the king?" ”

Wei Jun said: "There is another disaster, and I am ordered to 'use your son and the sons of the doctors to be sent to the Jin Kingdom as hostages.'" ”

The doctors said, "If this is good for the kingdom and the king's sons go, will the sons of the doctors dare to follow them with ropes on their backs?" ”

They were about to set off, but Wang Sunjia said: "If there is a turmoil in the country, the craftsmen and merchants will not stop making trouble, and it is better to drive them to go together." ”

Wei Jun told the doctors about this opinion, and brought these people with him.

When the date of departure was set, Wei Jun received the people of the country and sent Wang Sun Jia to ask them, saying, "If Wei Guo betrays the Jin State and the Jin army attacks us five times, how much harm can it be?" ”

The people said, "If we attack us five times, we can still fight." ”

Wang Sunjia said: "In this way, you should rebel against the Gao Jin Kingdom, fall into danger and then send hostages, what's too late?" ”

So he rebelled against the Jin Kingdom.

The Jin people asked for a change in the covenant, but Wei Guo did not agree.

Wu Wangfucha led the army to defeat the Yue Kingdom at Fujiao, and avenged the shame of the battle of Li, so he entered the Yue Kingdom.

Yue Wang Gou or led 5,000 soldiers and horses to retreat to Huiji Mountain, and sent a literary doctor to ask for peace through Dazai Bolang.

Wu Wangfu was ready to promise him.

The soldier said, "No. Your Majesty heard that it is better to establish virtue and righteousness than to increase more, and it is better to eliminate diseases than to be completely clean. Once upon a time, there was a tribal leader who overwatered, occupied the Guanguan clan, crusaded against the evil clan, killed their chief, and the Xia Hou who was attached to them was finished.

Xiang's wife, Hou Shao, was pregnant, escaped from the hole in the wall, returned to Youzhong, and gave birth to Shaokang.

Shaokang made a Muzheng with the still clan. He is jealous and overpowered, and can guard against him.

The pouring faction sent Zhanjiao to search for Shaokang, and Shaokang fled to Youyu's and did Anzheng to eliminate the disaster for Youyu's family.

The chief Yu Si then married his two daughters to him and used the land to make him a fief.

Shaokang had fields of ten miles in length and width, and 500 soldiers and horses, and was able to widely implement Side, and began to implement the plan of reviving the state in order to gather the people of the Xia Kingdom and establish official positions.

He sent Nu Ai to reconnoiter and send Ji Village to lure the younger brother Ge Zhuang who had been watered, so the heavens died Guoguo and Ge Guo, restored the achievements of King Yu, sacrificed to the ancestors of the Xia Dynasty, and at the same time sacrificed to the Emperor of Heaven, so as not to let the previous system be lost.

Now Wu is not as good as Guoguo, but Yue Guo is greater than Shaokang, and God may make Yue Guo strong, and if you let them go, won't it be difficult to deal with?

Gou Jian can get close to his subjects, and try his best to give favors, there are no people who should not be rewarded for Sihui, and those who are close to him are meritorious, and they are in the same place as our Wu country, but they are enemies for generations.

At this time, he defeated the Yue Kingdom without occupying it, and then let him be saved, which is called going against the will of heaven to encourage the enemy. In the future, though I regret it, I will not be able to remove the evil.

The decline of the country surnamed Ji is just around the corner. Being among the barbarians, but fueling the enemy, such a pursuit of domination will definitely not work. ”

King Wu did not listen to him. After retiring from the official court, the soldiers told the people: "The Yue Kingdom has spent ten years to multiply its population and accumulate wealth, and it has taken ten years to educate its children and train the army, and in twenty years, the Wu State Official Garden will become a puddle!" ”

In March, the kingdoms of Yue and Wu reached a peace agreement. Huan Chan, the ruling minister of the Song State, was arrogant and indulgent according to his servants, endangering the office, and Duke Jing asked his mother to hurry up and feast him, ready to take the opportunity to attack him.

Before he had time to feast, Huan Mian had already conspired to kill Jing Gong and asked to exchange Gu Se for Bo Yi.

Jing Gong said, "No. Boyi, that is where the ancestral temple of the Song Kingdom is located. ”

So he added seven towns to the hood.

Huan Mei accepted the reward and asked for a banquet to thank Jing Gong, and the banquet was set for noon, and Huan Kui brought all the private guards there.

Jing Gong knew of his conspiracy and told Sima Huangye: "It was I who fueled Huan Ran's forces, and Huan Mian is going to harm me today, please rescue me immediately." ”

Huang Ye said, "As a subordinate, but disobedience, this is hated by the gods, let alone people? Where do you dare not obey orders! If you can't get the left master to the nest, this thing can't be done, please summon him with the king's order. ”

Zuo Shi Xiangchao must hit the bell every time he eats, and when he hears the bell, Jing Gong said, "Lord Xiang wants to eat." ”

Xiang Chao had already eaten and played music again. Jing Gong said, "You can go!" ”

Huang Ye rode to Xiang Nest in a military chariot and said, "The official in charge of finding the tracks of the beast has come and reported: 'There is a single elk in Fengze. ’

The monarch said, 'Although Huan did not come, Zuo Shi can come, how about I hunt with him?' The king was sorry to bother you, and I said, 'Let me try to say it.' The king wants to hurry, so he will meet you in a chariot. ”

Xiang Chao got into the car with him, and when he arrived at Jing Gong, Jing Gong told him about calling him for rescue, and knelt down to bow to Xiang Chao, so scared that he couldn't stand up.

Huang Ye said, "The king will swear an oath to you." ”

Jing Gong swore an oath and said: "If I embarrass you, there is God above and there is a ancestor below, and I can testify." ”

Xiang Chao replied: "Huan Yue is disrespectful to the monarch, this is a disaster for the Song Kingdom, I dare not disobey the order." ”

Huang Ye asked him to hand over the jade talisman of the troop and use the talisman to call his subordinates to attack the Huan family.

Xiang Chao's father and brother said "no" to his subordinates, and his new subordinates said "obey the king's orders". So he went to attack Huan Hui.

Frame Hui's disciple galloped on horseback and went to report to Huan Kui.

Huan Kui wanted to go in and attack the court, but another of his disciples, Che, stopped him and said, "If you can't serve the king, but you attack the capital, the people won't follow you, and you'll just give your life in vain." ”

Huan Toad entered Caoyi to launch a rebellion.

In June of the fourteenth year of Lu Aigong, Jing Gong sent Zuo Shi to Chao to lead an army to crusade against him, Xiang Chao was unwilling to attack Huan Yan, and wanted to use Huan Yi's doctor as a hostage to return to the capital. didn't catch the doctor, but also entered Caoyi, wanting to arrest some people as hostages.

Huan Ran said: "It can't be like this. What will happen if you fail to serve the king and offend the people? ”

When he had said this, he let the people go. And the people of the land turned away from him.

Huan Fu fled to Weiguo, Xiang Chao fled to Lu State, Jing Gong sent someone to stop him, saying: "Widow, I have a word with you first, and I can't let Xiang cut off the incense." ”

Xiang Chao refused, saying, "My Majesty, I have sinned too much, and I should also exterminate the Xiang family." If because our ancestors have made you courtiers, so that they have descendants, this is the king's favor. As for Juxia himself, he can't go back to China. ”

The state of Qin sent troops to threaten the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and asked the Eastern Zhou Jun for Jiuding, and the Zhou Jun was very worried about this matter, so he told the courtier Yan Rate about the matter.

Yan Shu said: "The king doesn't have to worry, please let the ministers borrow troops from the Qi State in the east to ask for help." ”

Yan rate arrived in the state of Qi and said to the king of Qi: "Now that the king of Qin is tyrannical and unreasonable, he plans to raise troops to the east to threaten Zhou Jun and ask for Jiuding. I, the monarchs and ministers of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, tried their best in the court, and as a result, the monarchs and ministers agreed that it was better to give Jiuding to your country than to give it to the tyrannical Qin. In this way, the Qi State not only saved the Eastern Zhou royal family that was facing danger and gained a good reputation, but also obtained such an extremely important treasure as Jiuding. I hope the king will consider this matter. ”

The king of Qi was very happy when he heard this, and immediately sent an army of 50,000 and appointed Chen Chensi as the commander to rescue the Eastern Zhou, and the Qin soldiers really retreated.

The king of Qi will ask Zhou Jun for Jiuding, and Zhou Jun is worried about this matter. Yan Shu said: "The king doesn't have to worry, please allow Chendong to go to Qi to solve this matter." ”

Yan Shu came to the country of Qi and said to the king of Qi: "This time, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty relied on the righteous deeds of your country, so that my monarch and his father and son could be safe and sound, so I was willing to dedicate Jiuding to the king, but I don't know which way your country wants to transport Jiuding to Qi country?" ”

The king of Qi said: "The widow is ready to borrow through the Wei State. ”

Yan Shu said: "You can't use the Wei State, because the monarchs and ministers of the Wei State have wanted to get Jiuding for a long time, and they have been planning this matter in the Huitai and Shaohai areas for a long time. Therefore, once Jiuding enters the Wei State, it will be difficult to come out again. ”

So the king of Qi said, "Then the widow will borrow the state of Chu." ”

Yan Shu replied: "This won't work either, because the monarchs and ministers of the Chu State have been planning in Ye Ting very early in order to get Jiuding.

If Jiuding enters the Chu State, he will definitely not be transported out of Yan Shu again, saying: "I, the monarch of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, am also thinking about the matter of the king in private. Because the so-called Jiuding is not something like a vinegar bottle or a soy sauce jar, you can get it to Qi by carrying it; It is not like birds falling, crows flying, rabbits jumping, and horses running can reach the country of Qi unimpeded. At the beginning, after King Wu of Zhou defeated King Yin and obtained Jiuding, he used 90,000 people in order to transport Yiding, a total of 810,000 people, in addition to preparing corresponding transportation tools and materials such as food and salary.

Now even if the king has these manpower and material resources, he doesn't know which way to transport Jiuding to Qi State. So the minister has been worrying about the king in private. ”

"Come on." The king of Qi said: "So where do the widows have to transport Jiuding to Qi country?" ”

King Qi said: "Xianqing has come to my Qi country many times, and I still don't want to give Jiuding to the widow!" ”

Yan Shu hurriedly explained: "How dare the minister deceive your country, as long as the king can quickly decide which way to move from, I, the monarch of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, are waiting for the order and are ready to move Jiuding at any time." ”

So King Qi dispelled the idea of obtaining Jiuding. When the Qin State attacked Yiyang in Korea, King Zhou said to his minister Zhao Lei: "What do you think the outcome of the matter will be?" ”

Zhao Lei replied: "Yiyang will inevitably be attacked by the Qin State. ”

King Zhen said: "Yiyang City is eight miles square, there are 100,000 brave soldiers in the city, and the grain can be used for several years; There are also 200,000 troops of Han Xiangguo Gongzhong near Yiyang City, plus the soldiers led by Jing Cui, the general of the Chu State, who are camped in the mountains and rescued with cameras, the Qin State will definitely not succeed. ”

Zhao Lei replied: "Qin general Gan Mao is a guest general living in Qin, if he has merit in attacking Yiyang, he will become Zhou Gongdan of Qin; If the attack fails, he will be removed from his official position in Qin.

King Wu of Qin did not listen to the advice of his father and brother, and insisted on attacking Yiyang, if Yiyang could not be attacked, King Wu of Qin would be ashamed of it. That's why I said, 'Yiyang will definitely be able to attack it.'" ’”

King Yi said, "Then what will you do if you plan for me?" ”

Zhao Lei replied: "Please say to Jing Cui: 'Your title is Zhigui, and your official position is already in the Shangzhu Kingdom, even if you win the war, it is impossible to rise again; If you don't win, you're bound to die. It is better to turn your back on the Qin State and rescue Yiyang. As long as you attack and send troops, Qin will be afraid that you will take advantage of the fatigue of the Qin army to attack it, he will definitely take out treasures to give to you, and Gongzhong will also pay tribute to the tomb, and you will take advantage of the void to attack Qin so that Yiyang can break the siege, and he will definitely take out all the treasures to you. ”

After the Qin army captured Yiyang, Jing Cui really listened to the advice of King Zhou Xun and sent troops to attack Qin.

Qin was frightened and hurriedly offered the place where the dates were boiled, and Han Sure also offered valuable treasures.

Jingcui not only obtained the city from Qin, but also obtained treasures from Han, and thought about the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

The Eastern Zhou wanted to plant rice, but the Western Zhou did not release water down, and the Eastern Zhou was worried about this.

Su Zi said to the Eastern Zhou Jun: "Please let the ministers go to the Western Zhou and let the Western Zhou release the water, okay?" ”

So he went to meet the monarch of the Western Zhou Dynasty and said, "Your strategy is wrong, king. Now if you don't release water, it is precisely to make the Eastern Zhou rich. They now all grow wheat and have no other crops. If you want to harm them, you might as well give them water to destroy their crops. Once the water is released, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will inevitably change to rice, and after planting rice, you will cut off his water. If this is the case, the people of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty can be completely dependent on the Western Zhou Dynasty and obey the king. ”

Xi Zhoujun said: "Okay. ”

So the water was released. Suzi also received bounties from both countries.

He fled from the Western Zhou to the Eastern Zhou and leaked all the national conditions of the Western Zhou to the Eastern Zhou. The king of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was very happy.

The king of the Western Zhou Dynasty was furious.

The minister Feng He said to the Western Zhou Jun: "I can kill him." ”

So the Western Zhou Jun gave Feng Jijin thirty catties.

Feng He sent someone to take thirty catties of gold and a secret letter to the palace to find him. The letter said: "Tell him that if things can be done, do your best to do them; If that doesn't work, return immediately! After a long time, it will definitely leak, and it will be sent to death in vain. ”

Subsequently, Feng He sent someone to pretend to be an informant and told the anti-reconnaissance personnel in the eastern periphery, saying: "There are spies who want to enter the country tonight." ”

The scouts really captured the person who sent the secret letter, found out the letter, and handed him over to the Eastern Zhou Jun, who immediately killed him.

Meng Weijun Xue Gong used Qi to unite Han and Wei to attack Chu, and then joined Han and Wei to attack Qin, and borrowed soldiers, horses, grain and grass from Western Zhou.

Han Qing said to Xue Gong on behalf of Western Zhou: "Xue Gong, you used the Qi army to attack Chu on behalf of Han and Wei, and finally obtained the place north of Wan and Ye in nine years, but it made Han and Wei strong.

If you lead an army to attack Qin again this time, Han and Wei will become stronger faster. Han and Wei did not worry about Chu in the south, and Qin in the west, so the land would grow larger and stronger, and Qi would be despised.

You should know that things alternate between the end and the virtual and the real, so I feel uneasy for you in private.

It's better for us to secretly ally with Qin, and you don't have to send troops to Qin at all, let alone borrow soldiers, horses, food, and grass.

You only need to garrison Hangu Pass, not attack Qin, and let us tell the King of Qin about your situation: 'The reason why Duke Xue sent troops to attack Qin and make Han and Wei strong was that he wanted the king to dedicate the eastern land of Chu to Qi. ’

The King of Qin will definitely release King Huai of Chu to negotiate peace, and then you can make the Western Zhou use this to benefit the Qin State. In order not to be attacked, the eastern soil of the Chu State was cut off to save himself from the scourge of war, and the King of Qin would definitely agree.

When King Chu Huai was released, he must be grateful to the Qi State, and the Qi State can also get the east

The land will become richer and stronger, and your fiefdom Xue Yi will be free of troubles for generations to come.

The state of Qin was not greatly weakened, and was located to the west of Zhao, Wei, and Han, and the Three Jin Dynasty would inevitably attach more importance to the state of Qi. ”

Xue Gong replied, "Wonderful." ”

So he sent Han Qing as an envoy to Qin, and at the same time suspended the plan of the Three Kingdoms to attack Qin, and no longer borrowed soldiers, horses, grain and grass from the Western Zhou.

The Qin State sent Leng Li to lead a hundred chariots and horses into the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the monarch of the Western Zhou Dynasty sent a hundred soldiers to greet him, attaching great importance to and respecting him.

The king of Chu was furious and reproached Zhou Jun for paying too much attention to Qin's envoys.

You Teng explained to the King of Chu: "In the past, Zhibo of the Jin Kingdom wanted to crusade against the reason for entry, and first gave a big bell to the reason for entering it, and used a cart to load the bell, but the soldiers followed him, and the reason for the entry was finally broken, which was all because he was defenseless.

When Duke Huan of Qi conquered Cai, he claimed to attack Chu on the surface, but in fact he crusaded against Cai.

Today's Qin State is a country like a tiger and wolf, and has the ambition to swallow up the Zhou Dynasty, sending Li Ji to lead a hundred chariots into the Western Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Jun is very worried and frightened about this, and he is deeply wary of Cai Guo and the reason for entering, so he sent soldiers with soldiers in front of him, and soldiers with strong crossbows followed behind, nominally to welcome and defend Li Ji, but in fact to besiege him.

How could Zhou Jun not love his own country? I am afraid that once it is destroyed, it will be detrimental to the Chu State, this is for the sake of the King of Chu. ”

The king of Chu was happy.

Su Li, a lobbyist, said to the monarch of Zhou: "The people who defeated the combined army of Korea and Wei, killed the general Xiwu in the battle of Yique of Wei, and captured Zhao Guolin, Lishi and Qi are all Bai Qi, the general of Qin.

This is because he is very good at fighting with his soldiers, and he has the help of God.

Now that he wants to attack the Liang State, the Liang will inevitably be breached, and if the Liang State is breached, the Western Zhou Dynasty will have a great crisis. You might as well stop him, your king. You can send an envoy to Bai Qi and say: 'There is a man named Yang Youji in the state of Chu, who is good at archery, and shoots arrows at a distance of a hundred paces from the willow leaves, and he misses every shot.

The people watching from the sidelines praised him for his superb archery skills. But a man passing by said, 'You shoot well, can you teach someone how to shoot?' ’

Yoyuki replied, 'People say I'm good at archery, but you ask me if I can teach archery?' Why don't you shoot arrows for me? ’

Then the passer-by said, 'I cannot teach anyone how to draw a bow and shoot an arrow with his left arm bent and his right arm.' However, even if you can shoot willow leaves with 100 shots, but you don't know how to take a break while you shoot accurately, and after a while, your strength will weaken, you will be a little tired, your bow and arrow are crooked, and you don't hit an arrow, isn't that a waste of effort! ”

Now defeat Han and Wei, kill Wei general Xiwu, go north to attack Zhao, and occupy Lin, Lishi and Qi and other places are all you. You've done so much.

But now he is once again leading the Qin army out of Yiquesai, passing through the Eastern Zhou and Western Zhou, trampling on Korea, attacking the Liang State, once the attack fails to win, then the previous efforts will be wasted! You'd better tell your illness and don't attack Liang. ”

The state of Qin wanted to send troops to attack the Western Zhou, and the prince of Zhou said to the king of Qin: "For the sake of the king of Qin, your country, you can't attack the Western Zhou." Attacking the Western Zhou Dynasty will not bring much benefit to your country, and you will leave behind a bad reputation for conquering the Son of Heaven.

The princes of the world will take advantage of your bad reputation to ally with Qi to the east, and your army is exhausted from the attack on the Western Zhou, and the princes are urged to unite with Qi, so that Qin will be unable to claim the throne because of its isolation.

It was the princes of the world who wanted to make the Qin State difficult, so they persuaded the King of Qin to attack the Western Zhou Dynasty. Once the Qin State was exhausted like the princes, its orders would naturally not be able to run rampant in the Western Zhou State. ”
