Chapter 655: Disaster Relief - Zhao is more active than Wei

King Wei didn't bother with Zhou, whose face was stiff, and then said to Wei Wuji, "How much more troops do you think it is appropriate for my Wei State to send more troops?"

"The minister first led an army of 40,000 to Xingyang, and the king could order General Jin to recruit another 100,000 troops, and then go to the battlefield." Wei Wuji thought for a moment and spoke.

Zhao is now fighting on four fronts, and it is unlikely that it will continue to send troops to support, and the army can only rely on Wei and South Korea to support it.

"Brother Xian will rest for a few days first, and then send troops in three or five days, and let the soldiers rest for a while, how about it?" King Wei said.

"It's okay, just take advantage of these few days to check the military merits of the soldiers and send the rewards. Peace of mind for the soldiers." Wei Wuji nodded, in the past few years in Zhao State, he was deeply aware of the importance of the credibility of the government.

The credibility of the Wei State used to be very good, but in the past hundred years, the national strength has been weakening, the territory has been shrinking, and the promises made are often unfulfilled, so that the trust of the countrymen and soldiers in the government is also declining.

Freezing three feet was not a day's cold, and Wei Wuji could not help Wei regain its credibility. However, the Chinese people in this era are very simple, even if the Wei State fails them again and again, they are still willing to give the Wei State a chance.

In recent years, the national strength of Wei has been gradually rising, as long as the rewards and punishments are clear, and it is not difficult to slowly re-establish credibility.

"After the virtuous brother counts, just tell the widow directly, and the widow will never deduct a penny from the soldiers." King Wei said solemnly, although he has moments of mediocrity, he is not a pure faint king.

If Wei had no money and was poor, he might have done such a thing as deducting rewards, but now that Wei's treasury is full, no matter how stupid he is, he will not deduct the rewards of the soldiers.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wei Wuji bowed.

After the banquet, Wei Wuji returned to the mansion and washed his face. first wrote a letter to Zhao Kuo, telling Zhao Kuo about his defeat of Wei Ran, and then asked how the situation of Zhao State was, whether there was any news from the battlefield between Yan State and Qi State, and he planned to take advantage of the victory to pursue and drive Qin State back to Guannei, what did Zhao State think.

Zhao was the leader of the Three Jin Alliance, and the strongest of the Three Kingdoms, stronger than the declining Qin State, and Wei had to get the support of Zhao if he wanted to take advantage of the victory.

Although he is the prime minister of Zhao State, he cannot make decisions on behalf of Zhao State at this time, so he must ask Zhao Kuo.

Then, Wei Wuji wrote another letter to Le Yi, first apologizing that he didn't find out that Bai Qi secretly left the army, causing the Zhao army to be almost defeated, and then thanked Le Yi for the news that allowed him to successfully defeat the Qin army, and finally, told Le Yi his plan, saying that he would lead the army to Xingyang in a few days, and then discuss it later.

Then, Wei Wuji wrote a third letter, which was addressed to King Han. talked about the defeat of the Qin army by Wei and the intention to send troops, and then asked Korea and Wei to send troops together.

Wei Wuji handed the three letters to the knights and told them to make sure they were delivered.

Back in the room, Wei Wuji hesitated, took out another piece of paper, and began to write a letter, which was addressed to Huang Xie, inviting the state of Chu to attack the state of Qin together. It is said that now that the Qin State has just been defeated and the Jing Land is empty, it is a good time for the Chu State to recover its former capital.

"The State of Chu is attacking the State of Qi, and it is unlikely that it will send troops to the State of Qin." Hou Ying shook his head and said.

"We will earn if we send troops, and we will not lose money if we don't send troops, anyway, a piece of paper is worthless." Wei Wuji said disappreciatively.

On the other side, Bai Qi led thousands of Qin troops all the way to the Tiger Prison Pass, looking at the three big banners of 'Han, Zhao, and Tian' fluttering in the wind on the head of the city, his heart instantly cooled by half.

"The Tiger Prison is lost." His face is as white as ashes, and he has fought for so many years, and it is still a little difficult to accept.

Tiger Pass was the only way for the Qin state to go east and the Qin army to return home, to the north was the Yellow River and Hanoi of the Wei state, and to the south was the Yingchuan River of Korea, no matter which road was taken, it had to pass through the enemy country, which was extremely dangerous for the Qin army.

"General, what should we do now?" Wang Ji looked at Bai Qi, his face was a little better than Bai Qi's, not because he had a big heart, but because he still had a tall man on top of him.

Wang Ji has a kind of white qi

Blind trust, as long as Bai Qi is still there, any problem is not called a problem.

"Go south, retreat to Yangcheng." Bai Qi glanced at the tiger prison and gritted his teeth and said.

To the north, it was necessary to cross the Yellow River, and with the current strength of the Qin army, it was impossible to cross the Yellow River safely under the pursuit of the enemy.

Although the distance to the south is a little farther, there is no need to cross the Yellow River, and it is far away from the Zhao State, and the elongation of the battle line makes it more difficult for the Zhao army to transport grain and grass, which is more beneficial to the Qin army.

Back in the camp, Bai Qi wrote a letter to Wei Ran, asking Wei Ran to withdraw his troops, he didn't know yet, and it was too late for the letter to be delivered to Wei Ran.

Then, Bai Qi wrote another letter to Qin Wangji, first pleading guilty. He is the commander of the Qin army, and he has an unshirkable responsibility for the defeat of the Qin army.

Then he analyzed the current situation, and vaguely proposed that now that the Three Jin Dynasty is powerful, the Qin State should temporarily avoid the edge and retreat to hold on.

"Are we going to retire?" Wang Yi sighed, feeling very uncomfortable.

"Together, the strength of the three Jin Dynasty is far superior to that of my Qin State, and if we continue to fight, we will either lose both, or our Qin State will be defeated. In either case, it won't be good for my Qin State." Bai Qi said.

"What about the Yan Kingdom and the Qi Kingdom?" Wang Di asked.

Yan and Qi were pulled into the car by Qin State, if Qin Guo jumped out of the car and threw Yan and Qi Guo in the car, the bad reputation of Qin State would only be worse.

"Leave it to the king, I'm just a general who leads the troops, and I don't care about these things." Bai Qi shook his head.

Wang Yi is right, now it is not just a war between the Qin State and the Three Jins, but a war between the Qin Qi Yan Three Kingdoms and the Three Jins.

It stands to reason that as long as one of the states of Qi and Yan wins, then the most important thing for Qin to do is not to withdraw its troops, but to drag the Zhao army so that it cannot return to the army and create opportunities for reinforcements.

Victory in a war does not necessarily depend only on the battlefield, as long as you can make the enemy's losses greater than your own, it is victory.

But Bai Qi didn't believe in Yan and Qi in his heart, one gave Le Yi to Zhao for nothing, and the other sold Tiandan to Zhao, this kind of country wants to win Zhao unless the sun hits the west.

Bai Qi watched it this morning, and the sun was still shining in the east.

From beginning to end, Bai Qi never regarded Qi and Yan as allies, nor did he pass on any military information or discuss any tactics. He's used to relying on himself for everything, and it's so much more important for him to have two fewer pig teammates than two more allies.

As for the withdrawal of the Qin State after the withdrawal of troops, whether the Yan State and the Qi State are dead or alive is none of his business.

Thinking that Yan and Qi gave Le Yi and Tian Dan to Zhao State, which led to the defeat of the Qin army, Bai Qi felt a kidney pain, these two countries that have not achieved enough things and have more than enough failures, if Le Yi and Tian Dan had not defeated Wang Yi and Zhang Ruo, he would have taken Sanjin down by now, how could there be so many things.

The next day, week? Lead a rescue team to the affected areas around Yingze to provide relief.

After arriving at the disaster area, Zhou? I didn't see the imaginary scene of starvation and eating, nor did I see hundreds of people rushing up, hugging his thighs, and being moved to cry.

The people even had no food on their faces, and their faces were full of smiles. I didn't pounce on them when I saw them, and I didn't even ask them if they were here to help the disaster.

Week? Continuing towards the head, I saw people organizing people to dig canals to divert floodwaters. In places where there is no flooding for the time being, dikes are being built to intercept the floodwater.

There was also a group of people who took people to the high ground in small boats and distributed food to them.

"Don't worry, the flood is only temporary, and we, the Zhao Nation, will be with you until the flood is over." A very young man said loudly to the Wei people.

"Benefactor, when will the flood end?" A Wei man asked.

"It has rained a lot recently, which has caused the water level in Xingze to be very high, and Xingze is connected to Jishui, and now the water potential has not decreased at all, and it is expected that the water potential will decrease in ten days at the earliest, and then we will arrange for people to rebuild the embankment. Don't worry, everyone, we won't leave until we build the levee and rebuild everyone's houses." The young man assured.

"Thank you, if not

With you, we don't know what to do." The Wei people were grateful.

"Don't be grateful to me, if you are grateful, be grateful to our king. After he learned that the Qin army had broken through the embankment and Xingze, he did not delay for a moment, and ordered to organize people to ask for help overnight. If it weren't for the Qin State and the Qi State and the Yan State to attack my Zhao State together, the king would really not be able to leave, and he would have said that he would come over in person." The man said with a smile.

"King Zhao is benevolent, King Zhao is a wise monarch through the ages."

"We will definitely set up a shrine for King Zhao to commemorate King Zhao." Wei Ren said.

"Wait, who are you?" Week? He stepped forward and asked.

"Who are you?" The man asked rhetorically.

"yes, who are you?" The Wei people gathered around the man one after another, looking at Zhou vigilantly, and a few people even secretly grabbed hoes and shovels in their hands.

"......" week? Seeing the scene in front of him, he almost fainted in anger, he heard it right just now, this man is a Zhao person, and now the Wei people are standing with a Zhao person and questioning him, the minister of the Wei State.

If it is spread out, he will have no face in the Wei State in the future.

"I'm Wei Xiangguo Zhou?" Week? His face was pale, his chest fell together, and he said almost word by word.

"Zhou?? Haven't heard of it?" A Wei man shook his head.

"Isn't the Xiangguo of our Wei State Fan Xiangguo?" Another Wei man said.

"yes, this person must be a fake."

"Fan Zuo...... Fan Zuo is no longer the Xiangguo, and now the Xiangguo of the Wei State is me." Week? A mouthful of old blood almost spurted out.

"In the Lower Zhao Kingdom, Li Qi has seen Xiangguo." Man heard Zhou? After reporting his identity, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.

Ordinary civilians don't know who Wei Xiangguo is, but he does. Moreover, this is the State of Wei, and no one will dare to pretend to be Zhou.

"Zhao Guozhong? Why are you here?" Week? Take a deep breath and suppress the anger in your heart.

"Yu Xiangguo, after the Qin army broke the embankment and Xingze, I, Zhao Guowang, immediately sent a message to the king, and after the king received the news, he said that my three Jin are a family, and the people of Wei are the people of my Zhao country, and we must not let the Wei people fall into fire and water and leave it alone. So overnight, a large number of manpower and materials were transferred from Zhongmu and Yecheng to rescue the disaster areas of Han and Wei, and ordered Zhujun to allocate military rations and send Zhao troops to rescue the affected people at all costs." Li Qi said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

This time, Zhao Guo did come to the rescue, and did not abduct these people to Zhao State, Zhao Guo had already abducted more than 100,000 people before, and it would be a bit too much to abduct them again.

And Zhao Guo has too many things to do now, and he can't pull out manpower.

Week? I was taken aback when I heard this, you must know that Handan is several times farther away from here than Daliang, but Zhao Guo has already sent someone over.

This shows that Li Qi is not lying, and King Zhao did order a rescue as soon as he received the news, and it was the Wei people and the Han people who were saved.

Week? didn't think about it deeply, but was grateful for Zhao Guo's help, and recognized Zhao Guo in his heart. Although Zhao Guo hesitated for a long time in sending reinforcements before, he did not slack off after agreeing, and immediately sent troops to support.

Now that there is a flood in Han Wei, Zhao Guo's rescue is faster than them.

This shows that Zhao Guo really regards Wei and Korea as his own people, rather than talking about it.

"Thank you King Zhao, thank you King Zhao." Week? Leaned over again and again, although Li Qi looked younger than his son, what the other party did was worthy of his country's salute.

"Sangkook this ...... Is this also here for disaster relief?" Li Qi pointed at Zhou? The convoy behind him asked.

"Not bad." Week? Nodding.

"That's right, we're together." Li Qi said, "By the way, my country's Shaofu Kong Bin is also here, he used to be Xiangguo in your Wei State, do you know Xiangguo?"

"Yes. Know." Week? Nodding his head again and again.

In the entire officialdom of Wei State, who doesn't know Kong Bin, it was the man who was personally invited to Wei by King Wei, and then found that King Wei was not good, did not give King Wei a little face, and ran away.

"I'll take you to him." Li Qi

Said.

Week? I want to say that disaster relief is important, but seeing that Zhao Guo has handled the disaster area in an orderly manner, they may not be as good as Zhao Guo's handling of it. Moreover, as the chief official sent by Zhao State to be responsible for the rescue, it was reasonable for him to go to meet him and thank him on behalf of Wei State, so he nodded and agreed.

"The rest of us will go with our people to the disaster." Li Qi pointed at Zhou? Behind him said, don't wait for Zhou? agreed, and said to one of the people behind him, "You take them with you."

"It's fine." Week? nodded, thinking that although this official of Zhao State was very young, he was very experienced in handling things. As everyone knows, he has long been pitted by Li Qi.

Zhao Jun has been rescuing for several days, and the Wei people here all know Zhao Jun, but they are very unfamiliar with the personnel of the Wei State Government.

The people sent by the Wei state to support followed behind the Zhao army, and the Wei people would only treat them as Zhao troops.

Even if they revealed their identities, it was useless, because they came later than Zhao Guo, and they were several days late, and Zhao Jun began to rescue after receiving Handan's order that day, and the Wei people had already recognized Zhao Jun in their hearts.

Dayi has long been on the side of Zhao Guo.

And Wei Guo can't say anything, I, Zhao Guo, helped you with disaster relief, and you should be grateful to Dade for being reasonable.

However, Wei didn't realize that Zhao Guo was buying people's hearts, and he didn't even think about it, people's hearts are the least valuable in this era, no one will really take the people at the bottom seriously, and no big fool will spend a lot of food, grass, manpower and material resources to buy the hearts of the people of other countries.
