Chapter 579: The Hatred of the Tenth Generation
Zhao Guo has been preparing for this day for a long time, and no matter what the situation in the Central Plains is, it can't change the outcome of Zhao Guo's action against Yan Guo.
But Wei Wuji had some worries in his heart.
The eastward expansion of the Qin State is becoming more and more obvious, and the next step will inevitably be to recapture the land of Hedong and Sanchuan, if the Zhao State makes a move against the Yan State at this time, the remaining Han and Wei countries are likely not to be the opponents of the Qin State.
It is even more impossible for Zhao State to give up attacking Yan State because of this, not to mention the layout of so many years, and it is about to come to fruition.
The relationship between the Three Jin Dynasty alone is not iron to such a point, don't look at the good relationship between Han Wei and Zhao Guo, if Zhao Guo goes all out to destroy Yan, the country is empty, and Han Wei can free his hand, he will definitely not give up this opportunity to weaken Zhao Guo.
Therefore, for Zhao State, Han Wei blocked Qin State in the west, and taking the opportunity to cut down Yan was the most ideal result.
It's just that......
Thinking of his home country, Wei Wuji's face became a little more sad.
When the interests of Zhao and Wei overlapped, he could help the two countries without any scruples, and once the interests of the two countries conflicted, Wei Wuji's heart was as painful as a knife.
"Go with the flow, it's easier said than done......
"Xiangguo, good news from the front." At this moment, a guard walked in from outside the hall and handed Wei Wuji the battle report with both hands.
There was a smile on everyone's faces, good news, it seems that they have won!
Wei Wuji took the battle report, retracted his thoughts, glanced at the sealing mud, and there was no trace of movement before opening it, with a surging smile on his face, stroking his beard and saying, "You guessed right, our army did win."
"Hahaha, everyone in the world says that the Qin army is the army of tigers and wolves, and when they meet me, Zhao Jun has become a soft persimmon." Zhao Bao patted the table and laughed loudly, completely forgetting that he was afraid of Qin Jun and did not dare to accept the scene of the party.
"If I join the three Jinjin, I will be invincible in the world." Lin Xiangru picked up the tea and drank it all, his face full of satisfaction.
Decades ago, regardless of his personal life and death, he could only take advantage of some superficial advantages in the Qin State despite his best efforts, and now the Zhao State is finally no longer that weak country!
When Wei Wuji saw the battle report, his expression suddenly froze, and then he returned to normal.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Sheng noticed the change in Wei Wuji and asked.
"It's just a small thing, it doesn't affect the big picture." Wei Wuji handed the battle report to Zhao Sheng.
Zhao Sheng lowered his eyebrows, didn't say anything, and handed the battle report to Lin Xiangru.
"Where there is a cause, there must be an effect." Lin Xiangru sighed and reported the battle to Xunzi again.
"Murderers are always killed!" Xunzi only said a word, and then stopped talking.
Although he felt sad for the dead Qin army captives, he was not a virgin, and he couldn't say that the Qin army prisoners were innocent.
Eventually, the battle report returned to Wei Wuji's hands, and some of them opened their mouths to say something, only to sigh and swallow back the words that had reached their throats.
Even if he is a descendant of the Kong family, Kong Bin, who talks about benevolence and etiquette all day long, did not speak for Qin Jun.
If the Three Jin had killed captives from other countries, they would have stood up and reprimanded them a long time ago. But it was the Qin captives who were killed, and they had no way to blame.
Confucius said, "How can we repay virtue if we repay our grievances with virtue? The only way to repay grievances with straightforwardness and to repay virtue with virtue."
When the Qin State turned into a war machine and slaughtered the people of the Six Kingdoms frantically, this day was already doomed.
Unless the Qin State wins forever, even if it dominates the world, contradictions will eventually erupt.
Whether it is Jia Yan, Mang Mao, Storm Luan and others who hate the Qin State to the core, they will also kill the prisoners of the Qin State if they disobey the military order.
Or in history, Xiang Yukeng's killing of 200,000 Qin army prisoners is all doomed cause and effect.
The grudges between Qin and the Six Kingdoms, especially with the Three Jin and Chu Kingdoms, were too deep to be resolved.
Before the Wei State was defeated, the main force of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong to resist the Qin State had always been the Wei State, and its losses were far above the Zhao State, and the hatred with the Qin State was even more incompatible, far from being comparable to the Zhao State.
The total number of soldiers killed in the Wei Dynasty is more than the Zhao army killed in the Battle of Changping in history, but it is not one
The battle seems to be less intense.
These soldiers who died in battle flowed in the long river of time, and after flowing until more than 2,000 years, only a string of pale and weak numbers remained, but the Wei people remembered, the Zhao people remembered, the Han people remembered, the Chu people remembered, every inch of mountains and rivers, every city brick had the blood they spilled, the bones buried.
The revenge of the tenth generation can still be avenged!
For the Three Jin Dynasty, these Qin people were not only captives, but also enemies of their ancestors.
As for the condemnation of the world, Wei Wuji dared to guarantee that except for the relatives of those soldiers, the vast majority of civilians would not know about it at all, let alone condemn it.
The so-called people of the world are just aristocratic families who have the right to speak.
If these people just scolded in private, or wrote it down in a small notebook, it would be fine, but if they dared to provoke trouble, Wei Wuji had a thousand ways to deal with them.
Of course, that can't happen.
On the one hand, these aristocrats are not fools.
On the other hand, there were not a few children of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms who died under the guns of the Qin army, and their hatred of the Qin State was no less than that of the commoners.
"Since everyone has no opinion, then this matter is over." Wei Wuji waved his hand and said, intending to close the coffin.
"Don't you deal with it?" Kong Bin frowned and asked.
"What to deal with? General Jia Yan did not take good care of the seal and the prisoners, and had already been reduced to a soldier himself. This punishment is already very serious, is it possible that because of this trivial matter, I will not be able to cut myself by myself?" Zhao Sheng said.
"If General Jia Yan is self-defeating, if this is the standard, there will be no more generals left in the entire Qin State." Gongsun Long sneered.
"That...... So be it." Kong Bin gave up arguing, there was no point.
He already knew what Zhao Sheng wanted to say later, it was not Zhao Jun who killed the prisoners, Zhao Guo couldn't control this matter, and it was even more impossible for him to go to Wei and Korea to scold King Wei and King Han, and let the monarchs of the two countries dispose of their soldiers.
I'm afraid that before I even reached the girder, I was killed by a group of righteous men.
"Too often arrange for the envoys to Wei and Korea, strengthen ties with the two countries, and consolidate the alliance." Wei Wuji looked at Lu Zhonglian.
"No." Lu Zhonglian arched his hand and said.
"What about the Chu Kingdom and the Yue Kingdom? Yue Guo has already sent people to invite him several times." Xu Li asked.
"Where is Yue Guo fighting now?" Lian Po asked curiously, he was still very surprised that Yue Guo dared to challenge Chu State, and what was even more surprising was that Yue State actually won consecutive battles, and Chu State, a big country in the south, was beaten without any power to fight back.
"I hit Gusu half a month ago." Zhao Sheng said.
"Leave him alone, there is no possibility of victory for the Yue Kingdom." Wei Wuji waved his hand.
Wei Wuji still had a good idea of the abilities of the Chu King of Chu and the four princes of the same name as himself, Chun Shenjun.
