Although there were not many princes who came to the alliance, although they were already mentally prepared, the Marquis of Qi was still a little disappointed.

Guan Zhong persuaded: "Your Majesty, since the establishment of Bang Zhou, for more than two hundred years, only the Son of Heaven has the right to carry out the alliance, and it is a very good thing that these princes will preside over you for the first time in the alliance. ”

"As for the big countries such as Lu, Wei, and Zheng, they will not surrender if you don't show enough strength."

"As for Tan Guo, he crusaded against him in the name of disrespecting the royal family, when you were in trouble and fled, Tan Guo neglected you, just to take revenge for the year!"

Yun Yuan.

The princes of the Seven Kingdoms gathered here.

The Marquis of Qi sat on the throne, and the other princes sat around him.

"Since King Wu established Zhou, divided the princes of the world, more than 200 years, the ancestors have been on the road, and we are waiting for today. However, there are many people who are greedy for pleasure in the public offices and do not respect the Zhou etiquette, which leads to more than chaos in the public office. The first thing you want to say here today is to honor the Zhou Li. ”

"It is forbidden to use concubines for wives, concubines for concubines, and wives are not allowed to interfere in politics, so as not to cause unrest in the office."

"In addition, King Wu divided the world, implemented the Xia monarch to raze the people, and changed the raze into Xia, and the countries should obey it. The Bangzhou states had those who had fallen into Yidi, and they were willing to take the lead in helping and sending troops to help them restore the country.

The southern expedition of the king of Ra is not recovered, Huaiyi is strong, and the princes of the world raise troops, so they can protect the society, and today they are valued by the Son of Heaven, preside over the alliance, elect the leader of the alliance, and help the world! ”

The words of the Marquis of Qi made it very clear that there were problems in the vassal states, one of which was internal strife, and the other was external enemies. As long as these two problems are solved, it will be difficult for the vassal states to perish.

These princes naturally understood that how to maintain this system required an alliance leader. Obviously, Qi Guo wants to be the leader of this alliance.

When they decided to participate in this alliance, these six princes were already mentally prepared, and after hearing the words of the Marquis of Qi, Ju immediately expressed their support for the Marquis of Qi as the leader of the alliance.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Marquis of Qi is the in-law of the Zhou family, and the Taigongwang was an assistant to the three generations of the Son of Heaven, with outstanding prestige. Since the accession of the Marquis of Qi, the State of Qi has been strong and has attracted worldwide attention, and it has been defeated in five years to destroy the Kingdom of Ji Lai, which shows its strength. Lone recommended Qi Hou as the leader of the alliance! ”

"Ju Hou's words are lonely and deep, Qi Hou is broad-minded, the first minister intercepted and killed Qi Hou, Qi Hou loves his talent, can't bear to kill it, and worships as the minister of the country, five years Qi Guo Daxing, such a mind, I can't reach, Qi Hou with such a mind, must be the king of benevolence and righteousness, Lone is willing to serve Qi Hou as the leader of the alliance." As soon as Ju Hou's voice fell, Tan Hou immediately agreed.

The states of Tan and Ju and Qi were close to each other, and they all had to face pressure from Huaiyi, Dongyi, and Lai. And there is a stronger Huai State. It can almost be said that the offensive and defensive alliance will naturally support the Qi country.

The national strength of Cao, Chen, and Xing was weak, and it was impossible for them to sit on the position of alliance leader, so they immediately decided to support Qi. With the support of these vassal states, the Marquis of Qi unsurprisingly became the leader of the alliance.

"The Marquis of Qi is looking forward to returning, please also serve as the leader of the alliance!"

The Marquis of Qi was very happy to see that all the princes supported him. But even if you want to be the leader of the alliance, you need to be humble.

"Lonely but six years on the throne, to help each other, to govern the country, has a size of the merit, should not be praised by you. Now the princes of the alliance are in order to get rid of Yidi and save the nations, and they still lack something, and they cannot succeed as the leader of the alliance..."

"Qi Hou! You can make the country of Qi rich and strong in six years, and destroy the country of Lai, so if you don't serve as the leader of the alliance, who else in the world can sit? Please also ask Qi Hou to be the leader of the alliance! Cao Hou stepped forward and said respectfully, and several other princes should have arrived.

Only then did the Marquis of Qi assume the position of the leader of the alliance.

Next, everyone climbed the rammed earth platform, killed three animals to sacrifice to the sky, and then made an alliance with blood, indicating that they would jointly respect the Marquis of Qi as the leader of the alliance, maintain Zhuxia, respect the Son of Heaven, and eliminate Yidi.

After completing the alliance, the Marquis of Qi did not let the other princes leave, but summoned the countries to send troops as the leader of the alliance.

"Tan State and Sui State are the Son of Heaven dividing the Fang Kingdom, but they do not respect the Son of Heaven, do not listen to the edict of the Son of Heaven, and do not come to participate in the alliance.

This is an insult to our oath! You should go with Lone to punish Tan Guo and Sui Guo, this is in line with the Bangzhou system! ”

The countries that came to participate in the alliance also responded, but the troops sent by the countries were not many, only a few thousand, and the main force was still Qi. After all, this is the first action after the alliance, and if the Qi State can really do what it says, these vassal states will be convinced.

The Marquis of Qi had already made preparations, and immediately after the order was issued, he gathered an army of 50,000 troops, and then formed a seven-nation alliance with the princes who came to join the alliance.

After the princes of the other six countries saw the army of Qi State, they were shocked by the strong army of Qi State, these 50,000 troops were all elite of the hundred battles who had participated in the attack on Ji State and Lai State, just standing there, there was a suffocating momentum gathering.

Seeing that the State of Qi had such a strong army, this also made the princes of the Six Kingdoms respect the Marquis of Qi even more. Obeyed Qi Hou's orders.

The Marquis of Qi was not unhappy that the Six Kingdoms did not recruit many troops, originally this expedition to Tan and Sui was to use them to demonstrate, and without the participation of other princes' armies, this demonstration could be considered complete.

Immediately, the Marquis of Qi led the army of the Seven Kingdoms to the Tan State. Tan Guo was very angry when he learned that Qi was coming, and scolded Qi Hou: "When you were in trouble, it was still my Tan State who took you in, and now that you are the king of Qi, you are not grateful, and you actually led a large army to attack, and you are ungrateful!" ”

Qi Hou said: "You don't respect the Zhou room, don't respect the king's orders, don't come to the alliance, these three sins are also, when you were alone, you ridiculed, mocked, and did not enter the city alone, this is what you call kindness?" Shameless villain too! ”

Immediately ordered the army to attack, Tan Guo is small, but it is the country of the viscount, how can he block the army of Qi State. When the army of Qi learned that Tan Guo had insulted the monarch so much, they took the lead one by one, and Tan Guo's soldiers fell one after another. He was soon defeated by the tide of attacks of the Qi State, and finally had to retreat to the city.

Seeing this situation, Tan Hou sent an envoy to admit defeat, but Qi Hou did not agree at all, if he let Tan Guo go, how could he show his prestige?

He immediately ordered the army to continue the attack, and it only took a few days to break through the state of Tan and capture the Marquis of Tan. Then the Marquis of Qi destroyed his country and moved the office of Tan State into Qi. After destroying the Tan State, the Marquis of Qi was full of spirit and immediately led a large army to attack the Sui State.

The strength of the Sui State is much stronger than that of the Tan State, but there is still no resistance in the face of the Qi State, not to mention the alliance of the other princes of the Six Kingdoms? It was soon broken and destroyed by the coalition forces.
