Huai and Qi will be allied to Langya, and at this time, it is not only Huai and Qi who participate in the alliance, although Lu and Qi have fallen out, but also come to participate in this alliance, and at the same time, Ju and Tan are in the power of Huai, and they also come to participate in the alliance.

Tan and Ju were worried about Huai's attack and wanted to conclude an alliance with Huai. Wang Sheng did not refuse, anyway, according to the strategy of the Huai State, he did not plan to attack the north until the Wu State was resolved. Moreover, as a remnant of Yin Shang, Huai's northward movement will arouse the vigilance of the states of Bangzhou.

At that time, it is very likely that you will need to face the coalition forces of the Central Plains countries, although the Huai State is strong, but it cannot afford to start a war with the Central Plains countries at the same time.

Langya, the Marquis of Tan built a high platform outside the city, and the alliance of the five countries was here.

First, the young prison sacrificed to the sky, then sacrificed to the gods of mountains, rivers and rivers, and finally made an alliance with blood. The five countries jointly signed an alliance, and this time the alliance was mainly Huai and Qi, so it is also called the Huai Qi Alliance or the Langya Alliance.

After the end of the alliance, Wang Sheng led the army back to Huai, although the war has ended, but the follow-up reward and the problem of Chu need to be solved as soon as possible.

The army of Chu was defeated, 40,000 prisoners, this is 40,000 strong soldiers, for any vassal state, it is a force to be reckoned with, although there are millions of people in Chu, but it loses 40,000 strong people at once, even if it is not ten years with the heritage of Chu, it cannot be recovered.

Huai'an. The army returned victoriously, although the battle turned to thousands of miles, and the enemy was invincible, but there was little gain, and because most of this war broke out in the territory of Huai, it also had a great impact on the production of Huai.

In the palace, Wang Sheng has just rewarded all the soldiers who have made meritorious contributions this time. In a big battle, the Huai army used a lot of rewards to reward.

What's more, this time, the Huai army did not gain an inch of land.

"Zhuqing, this attack on Wu is Lone's fault for not thinking it through, and the three kingdoms of Qilu and Chu sent troops, so that the success was lost, and it was Lone's fault!" On the main hall, Wang Sheng first spoke, although the Huai State defeated the enemy again and again in this battle, but the strategic intention was not achieved at all, and it was undefeated and defeated.

"The ministers are afraid, this battle is not the fault of the king. It's the fault of your subordinates! ”

"The king is humble and admonishable, wise and resolute, not afraid of danger, leading the army to defeat Wu Chu at the critical juncture, retreating from Qilu, the British lord also, the three kingdoms attack Huai, it is not the fault of the king, it is really the crime of his subordinates!"

Hearing that Wang Shenglai took the mistake of failing to send troops, Zhongqing was panicked and hurriedly persuaded him. This expedition is the meaning of Huaiguo, and it is also what Huaiguo has been preparing for decades. It's just that no one thought that the Three Kingdoms of Qilu and Chu would intervene.

"Okay, this battle is promoted by Lone, the blame lies with Lone, and Zhuqing is not guilty!" Wang Sheng waved his hand and stopped pursuing these.

Then he began to deal with the problem of 40,000 Chu army prisoners, and the wars between the countries usually do not kill prisoners, and most of them are redeemed and bought, unless there is a great enemy, they will kill and sacrifice prisoners.

40,000 Chu army prisoners of war, Wang Sheng was ready to let the Chu army buy slaves, grain and grass for ransom. This time to conquer the State of Wu, the Huai State suffered a lot of losses, and it happened to use the ransom of the State of Chu to return blood.

In the end, the state of Chu sent an envoy to ransom 40,000 prisoners of war. Even a big country like Chu could not bear the consequences of the death of all 50,000 soldiers.

After some fierce debate, the state of Chu was willing to redeem these prisoners of war with 100,000 slaves, 100,000 stones, grain and grass, plus some bronze. Of course, the hatred between the state of Chu and the state of Huai was also formed.

After this alliance between the Three Kingdoms and Huaiqi, Wang Sheng did not plan to attack Wu again in a short time. Although he has an alliance in hand, who knows if Qi Guo will regret it, so he will not do it without being completely sure.

Wang Sheng didn't trust the Qi State, so he could only be reassured by letting the Qi State fall into civil strife or go to war with other countries.

Since Zijue, Huai has been collecting intelligence from surrounding countries through merchants. Until now, this intelligence network has been very large.

As a big country in the East, Qi is a big country in the East, and the intelligence network of Huai is naturally something to focus on. Most of the intelligence network of the Huai State was served by the children of the Gong clan and controlled by the monarch. This intelligence network and the Xiaoguo Army are important forces under the direct control of the royal family.

"Your Majesty!" Zhao Qi respectfully presented a scroll of books with both hands.

"What is recorded in the book here is the old things of Duke Wen."

Wang Sheng nodded and took the book: "Is there a record of Duke Wen's annexation of Han back then?" ”

"Your Majesty, there are all records, and without your order, no one has the right to read these books." Zhao Qi said solemnly.

Wang Sheng opened the book and flipped through it. I soon found what I was looking for, which is an internal record of the Huaiguo Intelligence Network, which records in detail what the Huaiguo meticulous workers did back then.

Including informing Ji Guo of the movements of Qi State, including going to Qi State to tempt the prince of Qi State to betray, and finally sending Qi Aigong to his death and being killed by Zhou Tianzi.

After seeing these records, Wang Sheng had an intuitive understanding of the intelligence network controlled by the office. And what Gong Wen did at the beginning also made him think of a cholera Qi country's solution.

"Zhao Qi, go and get all the information of the prince within three generations of the Qi State Office." After Wang Sheng read the information, he ordered directly.

"Whoa!" Zhao Qi immediately retreated, and about a quarter of an hour later, the intelligence network sent seven books over.

While Wang Sheng was flipping through the books, he asked people to tell him about the relationship between the Qi State Office.

The state of Qi was relatively stable in the previous generation, but it was more chaotic before the previous generation, the cause was that the Duke of Qi Ai was killed that year, and his brother ascended the throne of Qi, and this Gongzi Jing was called the Duke of Qi Hu after he ascended the throne.

Later, because he was worried about being plotted by Ji Guo, Duke Qi Hu moved the capital to Bogu, but the Qi people opposed the move of the capital. So the other younger brother of Qi Aigong felt that this was a good opportunity, so he led his private soldiers to take the opportunity to kill Qi Hugong, establish himself as the king, and drive away all the sons of Qi Hugong, this is Qi Xiangong.

After the death of Duke Xian, his son ascended the throne and was called Duke Wu of Qi, at this time, there was no chaos in the Duke of Qi, but after the death of Duke Wu, after his son ascended the throne, things changed. This one also got the nickname 'powerful'.

Because of the tyranny of Qi Ligong, the Qi people hated it, so they contacted the son of Hu Gong and killed Li Gong, but unfortunately the son of Hu Gong also died in battle, and in the end it was the son of Li Gong who ascended the throne. At this point, the Qi Kingdom finally settled down.

Wang Sheng looked through these office materials and soon found a breakthrough. The former Duke of Qi doted on his nephew and grandson and was ignorant, and he enjoyed the same salary, clothing, and living treatment as Gongzi Zhu'er, so the two sides fought many times.

And when Gongzi Zhu'er succeeded to the position of Marquis of Qi, he was naturally very disgusted with Gongsun Ignorance, and directly took back all his treatment, such a huge gap, Gongsun Ignorance can be said to hate the current Hou, which is good news for Wang Sheng.
