Unite with the State of Chu and go to persecute the State of Zhao?

Some of the people of Xinling Jun were stunned, how could there be such an outrageous operation!

Can the State of Chu join you Wei to force the State of Zhao to fulfill the so-called promise?

Not to mention that the State of Chu was originally only allied with the State of Zhao, and it was congenitally closer to the State of Zhao, and in the Battle of Los Angeles, he abandoned the armies of Zhao and Chu and ran away first.

In order to get rid of his own guilt, the general of Chu State knew this matter without thinking about it, and he must have explained it to the king of Chu.

In this case, he still wants the Chu State to keep the same pace as his Wei State.

Is the King of Chu crazy!

No matter how tempting the land of Zhou Wangji is, it is bound to be impossible for the king of Chu to take the risk of offending Zhao to ask for such a piece of territory.

You must know that this Wei State, although it is also a feud with Qin, but with the gradual decline of its own national strength, it is not incompatible with Qin, in other words, Wei can fall to Qin at any time like Han Zhiguo.

With this premise, for the Zhao State, the Wei State is actually not attached to it with an iron heart.

But the state of Chu is different, from the land of Yanying to the king of Chu Huai, the state of Qin owes too much blood debt to the Chu people, and what is even worse is that although there is a huge disparity in strength between Qin and Chu, the state of Chu still retains a vast territory, has a population of millions, and still has the strength to fight with the Qin army.

In other words, it is almost impossible for the current Chu State to offend the Zhao State.

As soon as this letter from the King of Wei came out, it was very likely that the Chu State would inform the Zhao State as soon as possible, and in that case, the Wei State would be completely passive.

Immediately, Xinling Jun, who was quite anxious, explained the inappropriateness of the notification to the Chu State one by one.

Hearing this, King Wei also nodded frequently, and after the words were finished, King Wei was even more anxious than Xinling Jun, and hurriedly said, "However, the letter of the king's order has been circulated for several hours, even if you want to recover it, it is impossible!" How can this be good?"

In his words, King Wei was even more bitter about his reckless decision.

Xinlingjun, who was watching this scene, also sighed softly in his heart. How long have I been hiding at home, and this happened.

It was easy to suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart, and Xin Lingjun immediately looked at King Wei and said, "Since this is already the case, there is only one way to send an envoy to Zhao State."

King Wei nodded, and then looked at Xinling Jun as well, and said, "Xinling Jun, I'm afraid this messenger still needs you to bear it!"

"Wechen?" Xin Lingjun was stunned in his heart.

"Yes, of course." King Wei continued, "There are many people who know the roots of my Great Wei, but there are few who may be dedicated to doing things for my Great Wei; There are not many people who can argue in the court, and even fewer people can have a relationship with Zhao State. From this point of view, only Xinling Jun can take on this heavy responsibility."

"This?" Xin Lingjun was still a little hesitant, after all, sending such an event was not what he was good at. But what King Wei said seems to have a point, the current court of Wei is all waste, and its usefulness is extremely limited.

And among these extremely limited people, they can't be completely trusted, let alone have anything to do with Zhao Guo.

From this point of view, I am indeed the best candidate. Not to mention anything else, the favor of stealing talismans to save Zhao back then was not something that could be paid off with just 20,000 loads of grain.

It's just faint, Xinlingjun always feels that something is wrong.

Obviously, Xin Lingjun did not realize that such a "stupid" move to inform the state of Chu was deliberately done by the king of Wei, with the purpose of creating an established fact and causing this so-called "passivity".

King Wei knew very well that only under such passive unfavorable conditions could Xinling Jun exert his strength to redeem it. Only in this case can his intention to take the land of Zhou Wangji have a greater possibility of being realized.

The cunning King Wei obviously didn't want Xinlingjun to react, and immediately continued to add: "By the way, it just so happens that Xinlingjun didn't you borrow 20,000 loads of grain from General Lian Po on the way back? In the name of repaying grain, I went to Handan, which can not only avoid unnecessary speculation, but also show the demeanor of my Great Wei. It also gave Zhao Guo enough face, maybe, Zhao Wang Kuoyi

I was happy, and I agreed with the widow's idea."

Hearing this, Xinling Jun was speechless again, but he didn't expect that his king, until now, was still doing the ambition of collecting the land of Zhou Wangji.

"My king." Xinling Jun shook his head and said, "If the king has an order, he will order Weichen to go to Zhao State to maneuver, and Weichen will gladly go there since he received the order. It's just, the land of Wangji this week?"

"My king." Xinling Jun relented and continued to say to the King of Wei: "The land of Zhou Wangji is also the land of anointing, and it is well known in the world. Although Zhao Guo may have integrity, how can he easily give in in the face of this great benefit? What's more, this place has nothing to do with the battle of our coalition forces, and it may be difficult to convince the public by making a promise before the war."

"Xinling-kun's words are wrong." Of course, King Wei also knew that what Xin Lingjun said was not unreasonable, but the more difficult it was, the more it showed the value of this territory.

And as a king, the biggest advantage is that as long as there is an excuse, even if this excuse is not worth scrutinizing, the courtiers must do things according to their own ideas.

It is clear that the King of Wei had already "thought deeply" about this excuse.

"King Zhao promised first, and our army also lost tens of thousands of soldiers, and now Zhao has the sole benefit, how to make it? If the coalition forces are defeated first and the Zhao army wins later, then who else wants to ally with the Zhao army?" King Wei immediately retorted.

At first glance, what King Wei said seems to make some sense - although the final battle was fought by Zhao State, the allies also did their best, so naturally they also had to gain some benefits.

This statement, if it is placed in the Spring and Autumn Period dozens or hundreds of years ago, will definitely be recognized by most people.

But what era is it now?

Warring States, the Warring States of China!

Today's covenant and tomorrow's betrayal of the alliance have long been endless, and Han Zhiguo in the Battle of Los Angeles is the most obvious example.

In the context of such an era, it is still required to divide the interests equally?

Isn't it a big joke in the world? To put it mildly, even if the battle of Los Angeles is won, Zhao Guo may not necessarily keep his promise not to fight a city or a place.

Of course, if the losses of Wei, Chu, and Han were small enough and could quickly reach a consensus, Zhao might really give up this piece of fat under pressure.

Obviously, all this has to be built on the basis of strength.

Now, the defeat of the Qin army has nothing to do with the Wei State, in terms of morality, the Wei State has already lost, and the failure of the Battle of Los Angeles has caused the Wei army to suffer heavy losses, with 100,000 troops, and only 20,000 people who followed Xinlingjun back to Wei in a structured manner.

Even if the scattered forces returned to Wei with the subsequent scattered, the total number of troops would not exceed 30,000. Such strength is obviously not enough in front of Zhao Guo.

If we have lost a chip in morality and more than one point in terms of national strength, how can we talk about this negotiation?

Of course, King Wei knew the loopholes in the logic in his own words, and Xin Lingjun naturally knew it, but it was very difficult to refute it, even if King Wei had given Xin Lingjun enough time to think.

But how can Xin Lingjun refute it?

There are things you can do, but you can't say them......

You can be shameless, but you can't preach shamelessness, otherwise you will be spurned by all shameless people.

Seeing that Xinling Jun was silent, King Wei immediately threw out his killer weapon and said, "Of course, there is only one reason why the widow has the confidence to recover the land of Zhou Wangji."

King Wei opened his mouth lightly and said, "From the perspective of the Qin army's calm withdrawal, although the Qin army is undoubtedly defeated, but judging from the fact that the Zhao army does not dare to march into pursuit at all, the Zhao State is not completely sure that it will be able to deal with the Qin State. In other words, the state of Zhao still needs the state of Wei and the state of Chu to the south to contain the state of Qin."

Listening to King Wei's analysis, Xin Lingjun couldn't help but nodded.

Zhao Guolian's mentality of resisting Qin has long been placed in front of the world, and in order to ensure continued cooperation with Wei and give Wei some benefits, it seems that it has nothing to do with it.

But when he thought that he had borrowed grain from Yicheng and needed to repay it tenfold, Xinlingjun's heart was confused again. If Zhao Guo really cares about himself,

If you care about Wei, how can you have such a request?

Could it be that Zhao has reached this point of food shortage?

If Zhao Guo is really short of food, Xin Lingjun seems to have found a glimmer of hope.

"My king." Xin Lingjun immediately said, "Even if King Zhao needs my Great Wei and wants to take the land of Zhou Wangji, it still won't work. He can't pass this level in the court."

"Unless." Xin Lingjun continued to look at King Wei, and his eyes were already full of seriousness: "Profit for profit."

The white wolf with empty gloves is definitely not good, and "exchanging profit for profit" is already the only way that Xinling Jun can think of, and it may be able to impress King Zhao and the courtiers of Zhao State.

As for Xin Lingjun's words, King Wei was not surprised at all. Such a large piece of anointed land, if Wei doesn't pay something, the king of Wei will not be at ease!

Of course, the crux of the matter is what kind of benefits to exchange.

In addition to a non-binding covenant, all that Wei could do was land, population, and money and food.

Needless to say, the king of Wei must not be willing to give it up. After all, today's Wei State does not have a surplus of three main territories.

One of them is near the national capital Daliang, which is the foundation of the Wei State, and naturally cannot be lost;

The second is the annexed homeland of the Song State - around Taoyi, whose wealth is second only to Los Angeles, and even with the current dilapidation of Los Angeles, it may not be comparable to the homeland of the Song Kingdom in a short period of time, so it is naturally reluctant;

Third, it is the Dongjun area, this area is nothing to the Wei State, bordering Yan and Qi, and it also took a lot of troops to garrison, but, after all, the Wei State has such a little territory, and the King of Wei must be reluctant to exchange land for land.

Then there is the population, the Wei army is newly defeated, and it is in urgent need of young and strong supplements, and it is impossible to give the natural population to the Zhao State, not to mention that the Zhao State accepted the people of Zhou Wangji, and now the most important thing in the Zhao State is people.

It is precisely because Zhao accepted hundreds of thousands of displaced people that it also brought ideas to the King of Wei.

"Grain and grass." King Wei didn't wait for Xin Lingjun to speak, and he had already said what Xin Lingjun thought in his heart.

Raising his head, Xinling Jun looked at King Wei in disbelief, as if he had only known this king today.

King Wei smiled slightly, but said, "The Zhao State has accepted the exiles of Zhou Wangji and mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops, even with the wealth of the Qin State, I am afraid it will be stretched, not to mention that the treasury of the Zhao State was emptied once five years ago. After only five years of accumulation, even if Zhao Guo gritted his teeth and took in these displaced people, the country would inevitably fall into the dilemma of food shortage."

"And my Wei country, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, rivers and mountains on the surface, although there is no precipitousness of the Han Valley, there are more and richer thousands of acres of fertile land than in that pass." King Wei continued, "If the king of Zhao is willing, of course the widow is willing to pay a million grains for the opening of the army."

"Xinling-kun, what do you think?" King Wei then asked.

Listening to King Wei's words, even Xinling Jun had to exclaim "generous"!

You know, this is a million quintals of grain, and the people of Zhao Guoguo have been working hard for five years, but they have only accumulated millions of quintals, and they are still scattered all over the country.

With this amount, even the Wei State, which has rivers and mountains on the surface, will take several years to accumulate such a huge amount of grain.

King Wei gave the price without blinking an eye.

However, after thinking about it carefully, Xin Lingjun could only say one word: "Worth!"

No matter how much grain and grass there is, it is still a dead thing, but the expansion of the territory is a living thing, and it is a solid improvement of national strength.

It's just that King Wei knows this truth, will King Zhao not know?

If you want to impress King Zhao with a small amount of grain, it is difficult......
