Chapter 267: Didn't you look at the map?
"The territory of Qin and Zhao is several times that of my Wei State, and the development speed is also several times that of my Wei State. If the strength of our Wei State is increasing at a rate of ten, the two countries will increase at a rate of twenty, or even thirty. If we continue to wait, the gap between our Wei State and them will only get bigger and bigger, not smaller and smaller. Only now, while the Qin State is still licking its wounds, is it possible to recover Hexi. Zhang Min retorted.
"Father, the recruits of my Wei State have been initially formed, and if they don't go through the baptism of the battlefield, they will be just a showpiece after all. Erchen thought that it was just the right time to train his troops in this battle. Prince Zeng also said.
King Wei frowned, a little irritable in his heart.
If all three suggested sending troops, or none of them, he would not hesitate to agree, but now divided into two factions, each of which made sense, it was really difficult for him to decide which one to choose.
"It would be good if the second brother was in the Wei State, not only would he be able to make the right decision, but the widow would also be able to rest assured that the soldiers and horses would be in his hands."
King Wei couldn't help but flash the figure of Wei Wuji in his mind, and sighed deeply, since Wei Wuji left Wei, he felt more and more like a loner.
In the entire Wei Kingdom, only Long Yangjun was left who understood him.
When Fan Zuo heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, he was sure that if Wei Wuji was in the Wei State, the King of Wei would definitely not let him lead the troops, and would not even listen to his advice.
Only when Wei Wuji is not in the Wei State will the King of Wei begin to miss him and regret that he did not cherish it before.
One word to describe King Wei's current thoughts is cheap.
Fan Zuo suddenly thought of a sentence he had heard from King Zhao before: 'Distance produces beauty.' ’
Agreed.
"The king, the two generals of Jin and Mangmao, can be of great use." Zhang Min arched his hand and said.
"Send someone to invite the three generals Jin Cong, Mang Mao and Le Cheng." King Wei said.
"If the king insists on fighting, the minister suggests uniting Korea and Chu." Fan Zuo sighed and changed his words.
"I'm afraid that Han and Chu will not agree easily." King Wei shook his head.
If they can't defeat Hexi, the two countries will lose their troops and lose their generals, and there will be no benefit. If the west of the river is conquered, the two countries will only get a few enclaves.
However, if it can't be like the original Qin State, with absolute strength to deter the Quartet, the enclave that was defeated will be lost after a while.
And Han and Chu obviously did not have the strength of Qin.
"The minister is willing to send an envoy to Chu and Korea." Fan Zuo arched his hand and said.
Although he did not support the attack on Qin in his heart, since he had agreed, Fan Zuo would do his best to help Wei win, although this hope was very slim.
"Then please leave it to the master." King Wei gave a salute.
"Your Majesty, Shaofu is back." At this time, a eunuch came over, leaned over and said.
"Invite him in." King Wei said.
Last year, Zhao, Wei and Han reached an agreement to build roads. So a few days ago, the King of Wei sent Shaofu Wei Yang to Zhao to discuss.
A moment later, a man in his forties walked in, was a little surprised to see everyone there, and said, "I've seen the king." I have seen the prince, the prince, the left master, and Long Yangjun. ”
"Shaofu has worked hard, this time the envoy to Zhao Guo can go smoothly?" King Wei said.
"Your lord, everything is going well, and Zhao Guo is not embarrassed. It's just that...... The part that needs to be built in my Wei Kingdom is a bit long. Wei Yang said embarrassedly.
He seriously doubted that King Wei had not looked at the map when he made the decision.
According to the regulations, the countries are responsible for the construction of the parts within the borders of the countries, and there is no problem with this.
But south of Yecheng, less than a hundred miles is the territory of Wei. The road starts from Handan and leads to Yecheng, and then from Yecheng to Daliang and Xinzheng respectively.
More than 70 percent of the roads were in the territory of Wei, and the combined state of Korea and Zhao was less than 30 percent, of which the part of Zhao was even few, not even one-tenth.
It can be said that this road was nominally built by the Three Kingdoms, but in fact it was almost the same as that built by Wei alone.
Wei Yang originally wanted to fight for more benefits for Wei, but Zhao insisted on biting to death, and no one could change the decision made by the three monarchs at the beginning, so Wei Yang could only reluctantly agree.
"This road is mainly within the territory of my Wei State, and it is also for the use of my Wei State, and my Wei State should bear more." King Wei said puzzled.
Moreover, this road was built by Wei and Korea at the begging of Zhao, and Zhao could not help the two countries at all.
King Wei felt that as long as the road could be built, it would be okay to pay more conditions, not to mention that the conditions of Zhao were very reasonable.
"......" Wei Yang was a little speechless, don't you know that you were sold by Zhao and are still counting money for Zhao Guo, originally Wei's market has been squeezed by Zhao State, and after the road is built, Zhao's cheap goods will continue to pour into Wei, and Wei will have to fight against it.
Wei Yang was sure that even if Zhao Guo was asked to pay some more price, Zhao Guo would agree.
However, thinking that there was another road from Daliang to Anyi, Wei Yang's face eased a lot, this road is indeed very important to the Wei State, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the lifeline.
Overall, Wei is not at a loss.
Considering the monarch's face, Wei Yang did not continue to explain, but said: "Your Majesty, Zhao Guo asked if we need to hire their construction team?" ”
"Zhao Guo's construction team?"
Zhao Guoyan said that their construction team is more experienced and can build the road faster. But...... The price is a bit expensive...... "Wei Yang said.
"It's up to you to decide for yourself, as long as you can build the road as soon as possible." King Wei waved his hand and said.
"No." Wei Yang arched his hand and said.
While the two were talking, the three of them also came over.
"I've seen King Wei." Lecheng said with his fists clenched.
Lecheng went to Wei last year to help Wei train cavalry.
The king of Wei respected him very much, gave him food, and often gave banquets, and won over, and said that he was a native of Wei by his ancestors, but later settled in Zhongshan.
Although he is now from Zhao, he is still a family with Wei.
Later, he hinted at Le Cheng, Zhao has three generals, Le Yi, Lian Po, and Tian Dan, you have almost no chance to perform if you stay in Zhao State, as long as you stay in Wei State, you will definitely be reused.
However, Le Cheng never agreed, and what King Wei said was right, he did have many more chances to stay in Wei than to stay in Zhao.
However, he knew better that a large part of the general's ability depended on the monarch. The monarch can't do it, even if the general is strong, it is difficult to turn the tide.
And in his opinion, the king of Wei obviously belongs to the kind of monarch who can't do it.
It's not that he knows much about King Wei, or how politically sensitive he is, but that he can't trust King Wei when he sees that Wei Wuji has been forced to leave Wei......
Le Cheng only hoped that he could help the King of Wei train his cavalry as soon as possible and then return to Zhao.
"General Lecheng is polite. I don't know how General Lecheng's cavalry training is? King Wei looked at Lecheng with a smile, how do you look at it, how do you like it, what Wei lacks most is a general who can command the cavalry, even if he is re-selected and trained, his ability is definitely not as good as Lecheng.
