Chapter 157: Bringing Two Tigers to Fight

The Five Kingdoms attacked Zhao, and now that Yan, Qi, Wei and Korea have all fought back, with Zhao Kuo's character of retribution, how could he let go of the culprit Qin?

But the Qin State is too far away, and the Zhao State is now a little beyond the reach of the whip, so it can only take the enclave of the Qin State: Taoyi.

Taoyi is rich, and because it is an enclave and a fief of Wei Ran, the Qin State does not have many defenders here, and other countries are just afraid of the prestige of the Qin State and dare not attack.

But other countries are afraid of the Qin State, but the Zhao State is not afraid, anyway, they are all offended so hard, and it is not bad this time.

Moreover, after Zhao Kuo occupied Jixi, Taoyi already bordered the Zhao mainland, and there was no problem that the enclave was difficult to control.

"The last general will obey orders." Pang Xuan and Yan Zhou excitedly bowed their hands, turned around and strode outside.

The rest of the generals looked at the two of them enviously, this is a credit that can be obtained by reaching out!

"Qingshe, Jia Yan." Zhao Kuo said again.

"The end will be." The two stepped forward and said with their fists clenched.

"The two of you stayed behind to assist Zhou Zi and return the Qi captives to the Qi State. At the same time, I will take care of the relocated people, and I will leave some doctors for you, and try not to have any casualties during the migration. ”

The 200,000 strong men were returned to the Qi State, and Zhao Kuo still felt a little sorry in his heart, but he also knew that with the size of the Zhao State, eating the 200,000 captives of the Yan State was already the limit.

If another 200,000 Qi troops were left in the Zhao State, it would be difficult for the Zhao State to suppress it in a short period of time in the event of a riot.

Although there are now 200,000 strong men, Zhao State has also moved tens of thousands of people from Qi State, as long as the land is divided, it can quickly integrate into Zhao State, which is far more stable than 200,000 strong men.

Coupled with the four million stone grains and grass obtained from the Qi State, the difficulties of the Zhao State can be regarded as overcoming......

……

Beam.

In April, the peach petals fall to the ground, spreading a pink blanket for the palace, and the air is filled with a surging fragrance, like a fairyland on earth.

King Wei and Long Yangjun snuggled up on the couch, pinching a mulberry from time to time and putting it into each other's mouths, their faces were filled with happiness, everything was so harmonious and quiet.

Suddenly, the harmonious picture was broken by the sound of hurried footsteps.

"My lord, something is wrong. Our army was defeated, and General Jin was captured. Fan Zuo held a battle report and rushed in in a hurry.

Seeing Long Yangjun, Fan Zuo nodded slightly, but didn't say anything.

As the minister of Wei, he has long been accustomed to the relationship between King Wei and Long Yangjun.

If there was no Long Yangjun by King Wei's side one day, he would feel strange.

"Jin Contempt has been captured!" King Wei stood up dumbfounded, took the battle report and looked at it, and immediately became furious, "A good Zhao State, a good Tiandan, deliberately deceived the widow that the Qin State intended to be in Hedong, and then attacked our army while our army was retreating!" ”

"Come here, pass the order, levy adult men over the age of fifteen across the country, and follow the widow to kill Zhao." A majestic momentum emanated from King Wei, he drew his sword, cut the eucalyptus platform in front of him in half with a single sword, and strode towards the outside of the palace.

"The First Evolution"

"The king is calm, the king is calm." Long Yangjun hurriedly grabbed King Wei, "King, calm down first before making a decision." ”

The strength of Wei was not an opponent of Zhao at all.

"Oh no, my lord." Fan Zuo also dissuaded, "If there is a conflict with Zhao at this time, Hedong will be lost." ”

"So what do you say?" King Wei kicked the platform that was broken in half with a kick and said angrily.

"Your Majesty, why don't you convene the ministers to discuss before making a decision?" Long Yangjun said softly.

"Okay, pass Zhuqing into the palace to discuss." King Wei waved his hand and walked towards the main hall.

……

"Great King, now there are seven kingdoms in the world, only Zhao and Qin are the strongest. Although the Qin State was defeated, the heritage still existed, and there were many famous generals in the country, and the soldiers forgot to die. And Zhao first defeated Qin, and this time repelled the Five Kingdoms, and the world was powerful, as if he would become the new overlord. ”

"My Wei State is sandwiched between Qin and Zhao, and if I want to survive, I can only get a chance to breathe by provoking the two tigers to fight, just like when South Korea ceded the land of Shangdang to Zhao. The reason why Zhao gave up Hedong to our Wei State was that he wanted to use our Wei State as a barrier to resist the attack of Qin State. Therefore, the minister suggested that Hedong should be ceded to Qin, so that a major war would inevitably break out between Qin and Zhao because of the competition for Hedong, and our Wei State would be able to take this opportunity to restore its national strength. ”

Duan Ganzi offered advice.

The king of Wei frowned suddenly, Zhao gave Hedong to Wei, although there was a suspicion of using Wei, but the land and population were real.

As the birthplace of the Sanjin Dynasty, Hedong not only has fertile soil and perfect water conservancy facilities, but also has salt ponds and iron ore, and its wealth is no less than that of the Central Plains.

Moreover, when the coalition army captured Hedong, Zhao Kuo had always restrained the soldiers of the Three Jin Dynasty, forbade looting, and handed over a complete Hedong to the Wei State. From this aspect, Zhao Kuo did not feel sorry for Wei at all.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Wei to know that Zhao would be used as a barrier, and he gladly accepted Hedong, and even gave Yecheng to Zhao as compensation in the end.

And South Korea ceded the party to Zhao Guo, which was only conceded under forced circumstances, but if there is a slight possibility of holding on, it is impossible to give it to Zhao Guo.

The crisis in Hedong is far from reaching this level.

Moreover, the king of Wei has always regarded the recovery of Hedong as his ancestor's merit, if Hedong is ceded to Qin, won't his merit be gone?

"Brother Wang, no." Wei Wuji immediately stood up and dissuaded.

"Brother Xian, please speak." King Wei decided to listen to Wei Wuji's opinion.

He still recognized Wei Wuji's wisdom, otherwise he wouldn't have been on guard.

It was really Wei Wuji who put too much pressure on him, and every time he was in front of Wei Wuji, King Wei always felt that he was an idiot.

"The reason why Qin and Zhao competed for Shangdang was because the position of Shangdang was very important, and as long as Qin won Shangdang, he could go straight to Handan, or go north to Jinyang and gain strategic advantages. And once the Zhao State loses the Shangdang and loses the barrier to the west, it will face the threat of the Qin State at any time, and if it wants to defend, it will have to pay ten times the strength. ”

"On the other hand, at that time, the Qin State was invincible, invincible, and strong, and defeated Chu State, Korea and our Wei State in a row, leaving only Zhao State as a strong enemy. And Zhao has not had a major war for many years, and the treasury is sufficient. Both sides have enough strength to sustain this big battle. Therefore, no side will back down. ”

"But Hedong is different. Although Hedong is important, for Qin Zhao, it is far less important than the party, and even if the two sides fight, they will not fight a battle for the country. In addition, now both Qin and Zhao have just finished the war, the country is empty, the soldiers are tired of war, and they have no strength to start a big war again. ”

"Even if I, the Wei State, send Hedong to the Qin State, the Zhao State will not compete with the Qin State. After Qin recovers its strength, it is more likely that it will choose to attack the weakest Korea and China to strengthen its strength, rather than attacking Zhao. ”

"In the end, our country will not only lose Hedong for nothing and continue to face the threat of Qin, but at the same time, it will also turn against Zhao. As a result, our Wei country is in danger. ”

Wei Wuji stared at Duan Ganzi angrily, his hands clenched into fists in his sleeves, eager to rush over and punch Duan Ganzi.
