Chapter 611: Bring Back Jiuding
"Now that the issue of compensation is over, let's ...... It's time to talk about Jiuding." Li Si looked at King Wei with a faint smile on his face.
He was already very satisfied with being able to cut off a piece of meat from Wei State, as for more, it was not impossible, but it was easy to force Wei State to meet each other.
Unless absolutely necessary, a war between Zhao and Wei was not a good option.
So Li Si decided to accept it when he saw it.
"......" King Wei was stunned for a moment, Le Yi and Li Si had been holding Wei to detain Zhao Jun before, and King Wei almost thought that this conflict was caused by Wei detaining Zhao Jun.
Only now do I realize that the culprit of this incident is Jiuding!
Thinking of this, King Wei couldn't help but feel a little painful.
Even if he was slapped in the face by Zhao Guo, it was a trivial matter to compensate tens of millions, but Jiuding really didn't want to give Zhao Guo.
Just like Yuan Shu, before he died, he had to experience the thrill of being an emperor.
It was not that the King of Wei did not know that the strength of Wei was not enough to support him to become the Son of Heaven, but the title of Son of Heaven was too attractive to him.
For this, he is willing to pay any price other than the loss of his country.
"Jiuding was brought out by my Zhao army from the royal city, and it should belong to my Zhao country. King Wei should have no opinion." Li Si said lightly.
Le Yi didn't speak, although Zhao Kuo said that he would take the soldiers back first, and then discuss the matter of Jiuding. But if you can bring it back with you, it will be even better.
As for whether it can succeed, it depends on Li Si!
"Both Korea and my Wei State have sent troops to support the Zhou State, why does Jiuding belong to the Zhao State? It is true that Jiuding was transported by Zhao Jun, but without the assistance of our Wei Army and Han Army, Zhao Jun would not have succeeded." Wei Yang said loudly.
"So...... Does Wei want to occupy Jiuding?" Li Si looked at Wei Yang, and a chill flashed in his eyes.
Wei Yang was shocked in his heart, for some reason, he sensed a fierce danger from the young man in front of him.
"I, the Wei State, have never wanted to occupy Jiuding, but I just want to lease Jiuding for a while." Wei Yang hurriedly explained.
"Lease Jiuding? Is there no one in Wei State to bully me in Zhao State? Or do you want to take us for fools?" Li Si stood up suddenly, and burst out all his spiritual power and pressed towards Wei Yang.
"Poof!" Wei Yang's face turned pale, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his body flew out upside down.
He never imagined that the young man in front of him, who was about the same age as his son, would surpass him so much.
"Wait." Zhang Min hurriedly blocked Li Si's spiritual power, although he had always looked down on Wei Yang, it was impossible for Li Si to kill Wei Yang.
Li Si slowly withdrew his spiritual power, he had no intention of killing Wei Yang.
Having such a person in the Wei State is a good thing for the Zhao State, how could he kill him.
"If Wei wants to talk, then talk about it. If Wei wants to see the truth on the battlefield, I, Zhao Guofeng, will accompany him to the end. If Wei wants to play hooligan, I will tell you what a real hooligan is." Li Si stepped on the table with one foot and said arrogantly.
With his back to Zhao Guo, he has this confidence.
After twenty years of crawling at the bottom of the Chu State, he has seen a lot of unscrupulous means.
I thought that the upper class society would be better, but I didn't expect it to be more unscrupulous and more hooligan.
But that's fine, I can use my full strength!
King Wei's face was pale, obviously he was extremely angry, Li Si's behavior was simply too indifferent to him.
However, he didn't think about whether he took Zhao Guo in his eyes when he snatched Jiuding and detained Zhao Jun.
If Zhao Guo is weak, he will endure it.
But Zhao is stronger than Wei, and if he still endures, it is not kindness, but weakness.
A weak country, no matter how strong it is now, will decline because it lacks the backbone of a strong country.
Le Yi took out the saber from his waist and repaired his nails boringly.
The guards around King Wei stared at Le Yi tightly, although he was also a powerhouse of the Transcendent Realm, but he was so close
If Le Yi wanted to kill King Wei, he might not be able to stop it.
"Talk, talk, definitely talk. It's not good to fight, kill, it's not good." Zhang Min hurriedly said, pressed down with his palm, and motioned for Li Si to sit down.
Wei Yang sat on the side, staring at Li Si with a venomous expression.
Li Si didn't even look at Wei Yang, for him, Wei Yang's level was just like that, and he was his opponent and lowered his level.
"Jiuding, the foreign minister must bring it back to my Zhao Kingdom. All." Li Si said undoubtedly.
Le Yi and Feng Quji also looked at King Wei.
"What if the widow says no?" King Wei suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Si, and the momentum of the superior made Li Si still feel a trace of pressure.
"The foreign minister has something to say to the king of Wei alone." Li Si said with a smile.
"Yes, you stand down first." King Wei waved his hand and said, he wanted to see how Li Si planned to persuade him.
Le Yi looked at Li Si with an inquiring look in his eyes, but seeing Li Si's firm eyes, he walked out with Feng Qujian without saying a word.
He knew that Zhao Kuo attached great importance to the young man in front of him, and Zhao Kuo had never made a mistake in knowing people. It is said that whoever has the ability is capable, which is more accurate than Xunzi.
Le Yi didn't wait too long outside the palace, and after a while, Li Si walked out of the palace.
"Let's go, go back to China, and bring Jiuding with you."
"How the hell did you convince King Wei? Tell me about it." On the way back to China, Le Cheng couldn't help but ask.
Le Yi also looked at Li Si, he was actually very curious, but after all, Le Yi was a famous general and an elder, and he had some idol baggage, so he couldn't open his mouth.
And he knew that there would definitely be people who couldn't help but ask, so he just listened to it when the time came.
"It's nothing, I just asked the King of Wei a word, whether he plans to form an alliance with Zhao against Qin, or wait for Qin and Zhao to form an alliance and carve up Wei." Li Si said with a smile.
"Hiss......" Lecheng and the others suddenly gasped.
This problem is too ruthless, and Wei State does not dare to bet at all, because the alliance between Zhao State and Qin State can really destroy Wei State, even if other countries support it, it is useless.
Except for the state of Chu, the declining three kingdoms of Yan, Qi, and Han did not have much combat effectiveness.
Moreover, Wei happened to be blocking the road to the east of Qin, as long as Zhao proposed it, it was very likely that Qin would agree.
For the Qin State, there was nothing more important than opening a road to the east.
"If we do this, what are the chances of success?" Le Cheng asked excitedly, he felt that Li Si's proposal was great, there was no need to scare King Wei, it was better to do it directly.
"Eighty percent." Li Si shook his head, "But it's not necessary. Although getting Wei will increase the strength of my Zhao country, it will also increase the difficulty of defense and slow down the pace of unification. I, Zhao State, is already the hegemon of the world, and a stable rear is far more important than improving my strength. Moreover, the annexation of Yan alone and the division of Wei with Qin are no less powerful than the latter."
"Han Wei is the barrier of my Zhao State, as long as Han Wei is here, Qin State and Chu State cannot directly threaten my Zhao State. If the Wei State is gone, it will become my Zhao State in front of the Qin State. Directly facing the Qin State and the Chu State is very disadvantageous to my Zhao State. After all, the Qin State could retreat into the Tiger Prison Pass or the Hangu Pass at any time. But I can't do it." Feng Quji also explained.
Wei is indeed a good place, and it is also one of the most densely populated areas in the world, with almost no shortcomings in economy, transportation, culture, and population.
Except for one thing, this place is not easy to keep!
Qin, Qi, and Chu all fought under the city of Daliang, and this time the Zhao army was killed at the foot of Daliang in one day and one night.
It's not that the strength of Wei is not good, it is really a flat river in the territory, and there is no danger that cannot stop the enemy army.
The west and north of Zhao are fine, and the tall Taihang Mountains are one of the few barriers in the world. The south, like the Wei State, is a flat river, and there is no danger to defend.
Moreover, Handan was even worse than Daliang, who was only surrounded by enemy troops a few times at most, and Handan was even captured and occupied by Wei for several years.
"It's a pity. In the past, the general still had some good feelings for the King of Wei, but now he can't wait to lead the army to destroy the Wei State." Le Cheng said angrily that he was deceived by King Wei too badly this time, and it was the most embarrassing thing in his life.
"It's really a pity, after this incident, I'm afraid you won't have a fief in the Wei Kingdom." Jia Yan said.
He also had a fief in Korea before, but after returning to Zhao, the fief was taken back by Korea. In this regard, the Han king is far less atmospheric than the Wei king, which may be related to the fact that there is too little land in Korea.
Before, he was still envious of Lecheng, but now the two are back on the same starting line.
"If it's gone, it's gone, and in the future, Lao Tzu will build a fief that can be passed on to his descendants." Le Cheng said nonchalantly.
"By the way, Wangjun, what arrangements do we have after we go back this time?" Li Si looked at Le Yi.
"The heavy cavalry will be expanded into a full legion, and flags will be awarded. As for you, the king has just returned, and he has not yet made arrangements." Le Yi said.
The heavy cavalry has successfully metamorphosed, and the next step is to expand and integrate. Once the integration is complete, it is time to join a new battlefield.
"I made an agreement with the soldiers in the army that after returning to Handan, I would go to the army to teach them to read and write. I hope you can help arrange it." Lees asked.
Originally, he planned to follow the process after returning to Handan, but since he met Le Yi, there was no need to be so troublesome.
Le Yi is the captain of Zhao Guo, and this kind of thing is within his authority.
"It's a trifle." Le Yi nodded.
If nothing else, after Li Si and Feng Qujian returned to Handan, they should be assigned to learn to handle government affairs in different departments like Huang Shigong and Han Fei, and he just needs to arrange it when the time comes.
On the other side, the palace of the King of Wei was full of devastation, the exquisite lacquerware fell to the ground, smashed to pieces, the table case was overturned to the ground, the table legs were a few meters away, the ground was full of porcelain slags, and Wang Xi was lying in the corner.
Even the pillars have a few marks of being cut down.
"Zhao Guo bullied me too much, Li Si Xiao'er, bullied me too much!"
King Wei's eyes were blood-red, and he roared angrily, and the long sword in his hand slashed indiscriminately, eager to destroy everything in front of him.
The minister wanted to step forward and grab King Wei, but was stopped by Long Yangjun, "Let the king vent."
After a while, seeing that King Wei had calmed down, Long Yangjun stepped forward and hugged King Wei, and at the same time quietly snatched the sword from King Wei's hand and threw it aside.
"King, Jiuding is gone, it's gone, anyway, it's not from my Wei State, so I haven't seen it." Long Yangjun's words were very soft.
"That little Lis, you deceived me too much. He said that if the widow did not return Jiuding, he would divide up my Wei State with Qin. How unreasonable!" King Wei yelled angrily.
What he was most angry about was not that Jiuding was gone, but that as the king of a country, he was threatened by a minister of Zhao State!
Well, it's not the first time.
But last time, Fan Ju was also the prime minister of Qin, what is his identity Li Si?
"Don't be angry, the king wants to carve up my Wei State with the Qin State, and the Qin State may not agree, after all, the Zhao State is the biggest enemy of the Qin State. Besides, my Wei State can strike first and unite with Qin State to destroy Zhao State." Xu Juan leaned over and said.
King Wei's eyes suddenly lit up, yes, he Zhao State can unite with Qin State to carve up my Wei State, and my Wei State can also unite with Qin State to carve up Zhao State, if he can annex a large area of land in Zhao State, not only can he recapture Jiuding, but it is not impossible to ascend the throne and become the Son of Heaven.
When the time comes, not only the Zhao State, but even the Qin State will bow down to the widows.
"Huh."
At this time, a sneer came from the side.
"I wonder why Master Zuo is laughing?" Xu Wan frowned.
"I laugh at your ignorance. Not to mention the strength of the Zhao State, even if our Wei State and the Qin State are combined, they will not be able to defeat it. Even if it can be defeated, if the Chu State in the south takes advantage of our army to attack the Zhao State and sends troops to attack our Wei State, how should our Wei State respond? If the Qin State betrays the covenant and attacks our Wei State, how should our Wei State respond? If the Qi State reappears in the siege of Wei to save Zhao, how should our Wei State respond?
」
"These are still relatively good situations, in fact, it is more likely that the Zhao army defeats our army and the Qin army and goes south to attack our country, while the Qin state retreats to Hangu Pass and sits back and watches our Wei and Zhao state fight. Loss of allies. Whether it's Zhao or Qin, I, Wei, are no opponents."
Zhang Min looked around, and he suddenly had a feeling that since Fan Zuo left, there seemed to be only female cadres and ministers left in the Wei court.
When Fan Zuo was there, he could barely suppress these people, and now Fan Zuo is gone......
"Send someone to find out immediately, how Zhao Jun suddenly appeared outside Daliang City, why didn't the widow receive any news?" Referring to the strength of the Zhao army, King Wei suddenly remembered something.
If this matter is not clarified, let alone beating Zhao Guo, it would be good not to be beaten by Zhao Guo.
"Your Majesty, the minister just received the news from Chaoge and other places, the speed of the Zhao army is too fast, and they have no way to stop it. It took only one day for Zhao Jun to arrive in Daliang from Handan, and the speed of the knight who delivered the letter was not as fast as Zhao Jun's. Therefore, it was only half a day after Zhao Jun arrived in Daliang that the news came." Zhang Min said.
When the place saw Zhao Jun, it must have rushed to Daliang non-stop, even so, it was still half a day slower than Zhao Jun.
You know, it's not the same as a single knight rush.
"It only took one day for the Zhao army to get from Handan to Daliang?" King Wei said in disbelief.
If that's the case, then it's still a fart, and Wei doesn't even have time to react.
"According to the intelligence, Zhao Jun should have been on the road overnight without rest. Otherwise it will take at least two to three days. In addition, Chen speculated that there should not be many legions in the Zhao State that could reach this speed. After all, it's all the Army Soul Legion who came today." Zhang Min analyzed.
King Wei breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't let go of his heart, but instead had a feeling of being stuck in his throat by a fish bone.
This means that the Wei State has to station an elite army in Daliang City at all times to defend against the Zhao State.
"Hey!" King Wei sighed deeply, and soon gave up seeking revenge on Zhao State.
The big husband can bend and stretch!
Isn't it just a slap in the face, it's not the first time.
I've been used to it for a long time!
