Chapter 462: Driving the Tiger and Devouring the Wolf
In the blink of an eye, another three years have passed.
In the past three years, the world has been completely plunged into chaos.
Yan, Zhao, Lu, Song, and the four kingdoms joined forces to attack Qi, but Qi was not an opponent, relying on the geographical advantages to retreat, many nobles were either uprooted, or had no choice but to surrender, and then were migrated to other places, losing their roots, and even had no chance to start over.
The Qi country, which was once a powerful country in the world and a great power, now only the capital is left.
And the Yan Kingdom, the Zhao Kingdom, the Lu Kingdom, and the Song Kingdom were also busy digesting the territory and relocating the nobles, so they were too lazy to storm the capital of Qi for a while.
But there is only such a capital city left in the Qi country, even if various formations are opened, and the accumulated resources can be used to kill a great real person in a short period of time, but that's all. Without backup, every day passes, a large number of local nobles are relocated and leave, and when these local nobles are completely cleansed, there is no hope for the Qi State at all.
Today's Qi country, although there is still a capital city left, but people with a discerning eye know that there is no future for Qi country.
In the past three years, the Wei State has destroyed the Wei State, and it has been working hard to digest the Wei Guo for three years, relocating the local nobles, and further transforming and upgrading the Wei Guo, and they are also very busy.
The Qin State destroyed the Yiqu State, and now it is also digesting.
The state of Chu has destroyed the state of Chen and the state of Cai, and now it is eyeing the state of Zheng, and the border of the state of Zheng is the border of the state of Chen.
South Korea sent troops to Zheng Guo, and has now occupied 200 counties of Zheng Guo, and the troops are coming to the city.
South Korea actually does not have a very superb military genius, but South Korea has a solid foundation and strong strength, and it has eaten up 200 counties of Zheng Guo by relying on the model of fighting dumb battles in a hard village. In the face of such a South Korean army, Le Yi took advantage of South Korea's light enemy for the first time to eat thousands of South Korea's prefecture-level Taoist soldiers.
In that battle, it was originally possible to take the opportunity to eat South Korea's 30,000 prefecture-level Taoist soldiers, and with South Korea's current strength, it had originally trained 70,000 quasi-prefecture-level Taoist soldiers, and 30,000 were eaten in one go, which can be called a nerve-wracking.
If this battle goes well, then even if the situation between South Korea and Zheng Guo is not reversed, Zheng Guo will feel much better next, at least he can breathe.
But who knows, at the critical moment, Han Feizi didn't talk about martial arts, and rushed over directly with Jiuding, and went all out to stimulate the power of Jiuding, breaking the trap that Le Yi had already arranged.
After that war, South Korea has been fighting a dumb battle: every place they go, they must first relocate the local nobles, thoroughly refine the leylines of the region, completely control every aura in the region, and rectify the area as if it were the Korean mainland, and then carefully occupy the adjacent areas.
Just occupy a place, transform a place, and digest a place.
In the face of this style of play, Le Yi was also very helpless, and after occasional temptation, Le Yi found that the other party was really cautious and had no chance.
Although this cannibalization style of play is very slow, it is indeed very stable.
In the first year, Korea encroached on 30 counties of Jeongguk.
The following year, Korea encroached on 60 counties of Jeongguk.
In the third year, Korea encroached on 110 counties of Jeongkook.
It is said that Li Si once said that when he captured the capital of Zheng State, he would change his name to Xinzheng, and then it would be directly used as the capital of South Korea.
As for the hearts of the people in Zheng Guoguo's capital, it can only be said that the hearts of the people are panicked.
Today's Zheng State, the north is crushed by the Korean general trend, encroaching step by step, and the south is bordered by the Chen soldiers of the Chu State, which may be attacked at any time.
In the national capital, people's minds change.
This is still Le Yi is very capable, both military and government affairs, so that he can continue to unite people's hearts in such a crisis, otherwise, if he changes someone, he would have been sold a long time ago.
But even so, Le Yi also knows that people's hearts can't stand the test, and Zheng Guo's situation is like this, and he can't hold it anymore.
Therefore, Le Yi had an idea in his heart.
Soon, Le Yi met Zheng Hou.
"Your Majesty, how are you talking with South Korea?"
"Huh? Yes! Yes? ”
Looking at Zheng Hou with a surprised face, Le Yi said indifferently: "Your Majesty, at this time, it is too normal for you and South Korea to negotiate and communicate in private. ”
It's all like this, Zheng Hou or the domestic nobles haven't negotiated with South Korea yet, and Le Yi doesn't believe it.
You're not that loyal!
Zheng Hou's face was still a little thin, but Le Yi said it, and Zheng Hou told the truth: "Han Gong said that if it was in the past, he would be willing to reserve dozens of counties for Zheng Guo as fiefs, but now that the times have changed, centralized power has become the mainstream, and it is almost impossible to exist as a country within a country as in the past." ”
"Even if he promised to keep the fiefs of dozens of counties for Gu today, then one day in the future, these fiefs will have to be taken back sooner or later."
"Therefore, Han Gong is finally willing to give Gu two innate spirit treasures, willing to let Gu keep all his property in Zheng Guo, willing to buy eight large floating islands and eight small floating islands for Gu overseas, and is also willing to give Gu a large sum of money at one time to set up a commercial bank to buy treasury bonds issued by Yancheng in the future, and just eating interest every year is enough for Gu and Gu's descendants to be prosperous and rich."
Le Yi nodded: "Han Gong is still sincere, he is telling the truth, and he didn't think about deceiving the king first, and then unloading the mill and killing the donkey afterwards." ”
Yes, it was because Han Feizi was telling the truth and was full of sincerity that Zheng Hou was really tempted.
Zheng Hou thinks that he has worked hard, and Zheng Guo has become the most powerful in history because of his own efforts, but the opponent is even stronger, not an opponent at all, even if the ancestors are reborn, in the face of this situation, they will not do better than themselves, surrender at this moment, with a clear conscience!
Thinking like this, Zheng Hou immediately straightened his waist.
Seeing this, Le Yi smiled mysteriously: "So, do you want to sell it for a better price?" ”
"Better price? How is this going to be sold? ”
"There are three strategies, the upper policy is to sell directly to Yancheng, but unfortunately Yancheng will most likely not want it, so this policy only stays on paper."
"The next strategy is to sell it to the Chu State, and the king will take the remaining 400 counties of the Zheng State to surrender to the Chu State, and we will cooperate with the Chu State to kill the main force of Korea here."
"Then, my lord, you stay in the Chu State and become the great nobleman of the Chu State. However, it is difficult to say whether the Chu State can dominate the world in the future, and this may also be a point of no return. ”
"As for the middle strategy, the front is the same as the lower policy, but after surrendering to the Chu State, the lord, you take the benefits given by the Chu State and go overseas."
Wei Hou thought for a moment: "Then let's take the middle step." ”
"Okay, the minister will secretly go to the Chu State, and be prepared to cooperate with the outside and prepare to kill the main force of South Korea!"
