Chapter 187: Father and Son, South Korea Asks for Help

South Korea's 'Father's Kindness and Filial Piety' drama has finally come to an end, and after all, Han Wang Zhao's skills are superior. Although Han Wangzhao was beaten badly by Huaiguo, it was because of the lack of overall strength in South Korea.

Seriously speaking, Han Wang Zhao and Shen do not harm the law, and they can be regarded as a wise monarch in South Korea. Even Han Wangkang had already taken advantage of Wang Kan's deliberate delay, but after Han Wangzhao went back, it didn't take long for Han Wangzhao to control the court again.

Han Wangkang finally had to flee to Wei.

The king of Wei took in Han Wang Kang, and since the three families were separated, Wei had always wanted to annex Han and Zhao. It's just that there has never been a suitable opportunity, and Zhao Guo and South Korea also have this kind of thought.

Now that Zhao is in the midst of a war with Zhongshan, Qin has not attacked Wei because of the containment of Western Chu, and more importantly, Korea has fallen into civil strife and weakened national strength, and Han Wangkang has come to ask for help, which can be said to be a golden opportunity.

The king of Wei immediately took Pang Juan as his general and attacked Korea in the name of escorting Han Wang Kang back to China and ascending the throne. Han Wang Zhao was furious and immediately called up a large army to fight against Wei.

It's just that Han Wangzhao overestimated his strength. Although Wei was defeated by Qin, it was still not something that Korea could deal with, and Korea was defeated in Southern Liang. Han Wangzhao was also awakened by this battle, clearly recognized the gap between Korea and Wei, and immediately sent an envoy to Qi for help.

After the envoy of the king of Han came to the kingdom of Qi, he asked to see the king of Qi. Then he asked the king of Qi for help and asked the state of Qi to send troops to attack the state of Wei.

The king of Qi did not agree directly, but thought that the major matter of sending troops to attack Huai State needed to be carefully considered, and asked the Korean envoy to go back first and wait for the news.

After the Korean envoy left, King Qi asked the minister if he wanted to rescue Korea.

Shangqing Zhang Cheng took a step forward and said: "Great King, Wei is strong and Han is weak, if you don't save Korea, Wei will definitely be able to defeat Korea and annex it, and then Wei's national strength will increase greatly, and there will be no benefit to Qi State." The minister suggested that troops should be sent to save Han. ”

"Moreover, the State of Qin has just invited the State of Qi and the Alliance to deal with the State of Wei, and this time it is just the right time to invite the State of Qin to send troops to help."

Lu Ji on the other side admonished:

"The king, your majesty thinks that if you send troops now, Korea and Wei will have spare strength at this time, if you send troops at this time, then our Qi country will have to fight with Wei, it is better to wait for the Wei army to attack Han and be tired, and then send troops to save Han, so that Han Wei can be weakened, and our losses are very small."

King Qi felt that Lu Ji's plan was better, and immediately agreed. So he told the Korean envoy that Qi agreed to send troops to the rescue, but deliberately did not tell the envoy the specific time.

After getting the promise of Qi State, Han Wangzhao immediately decided to continue to work hard with Wei State. As a result, they were once again defeated by Wei, and Qi's reinforcements had not yet arrived.

The Korean monarchs and ministers knew that the attack on the Wei State would not be able to stop the Wei State at all, so they arranged defense lines among the many cities in Korea to block the Wei State, and on the other hand, they were fortified and cleared the wilderness, transferring the Korean population and materials to Zhengdi.

After two years of fighting for 'father's kindness and filial piety', South Korea's national strength weakened, even if it was defensive, it couldn't resist it, and Pang Juan broke through the defense line several times in a row.

At this time, the whole of Korea could not bear it at all, and once again sent an envoy to the Qi State for help, and the King of Qi agreed to send troops to rescue South Korea.

Before the king of Qi sent troops, the king of Qi sent an envoy to the state of Qin, asking the state of Qin to send troops together.

Qin was very happy when he learned that Qi was preparing to attack Wei.

Gongsun Ying said: "Your Majesty, this is a God-given opportunity, as long as the Qi State attacks the Wei State, we will have a chance." ”

"However, in order to prevent the Western Chu State from making trouble, I also asked the king to send a large army to garrison Shu and Yixian."

The army of Qi sent troops to rescue South Korea. But then Qi found that Wei was not as weak as he imagined. Wei was in the land of four battles, and the soldiers were all elite in a hundred battles, and after several successive battles, Qi immediately understood that this would be a brutal fight.

After receiving the aid of Qi State, South Korea finally breathed a sigh of relief, if Qi State did not send troops again, South Korea really couldn't resist surrendering.

Qi and Wei fought each other, and both sides felt the strength of the other party, so the fortifications began to be arranged one after another, and the armies of both sides strangled head-on, and at the same time sent a small group of elite troops to attack and harass the enemy's rear road.

A large number of scouts were sent out to find the opponent's weak spots, or to cut off the back route, or to sneak up on the grain and grass strongholds.

While the Qi State and the Wei State were tempting, they were fighting on a small scale. Although there was no big battle, the casualties on both sides were not small.

Wei had already consumed a lot of grain and grass because of the attack on Korea, and the soldiers were also killed and wounded, and then confronted Qi State, Wei's grain and grass consumption was very high, and at the same time, Wei State was also worried that Qin State would take advantage of the war between Wei State and Qi State to suddenly attack.

Therefore, Wei wanted to fight a quick battle and defeat Qi as soon as possible.

In order to prevent a sneak attack by Qin, Wei sent Gongzi Ang to serve as the county guard of Hexi and preside over the land of Hexi. Childe Ang is indeed talented. Since the last truce between Qin and Wei, he has advised farmers to teach and train soldiers, and in the past three years, the land of Hexi has recovered some weather.

"Zuo Shuchang, now that Wei and Qi are in a big war, it is a good time to send troops." The Marquis of Qin couldn't wait to recover the land west of the river.

"Your Majesty, you should wait." Gongsun Ying said: "The big war between the Qi State and the Wei State, whether you win or lose, you will lose your national strength, and the soldiers will be exhausted after a long war. ”

"Taking advantage of the fatigue of the Wei State after the war, he quickly captured the land west of the river, and then relied on the Yellow River to establish a defensive line, and then the Wei state did not want to occupy the land west of the river again."

"As long as we occupy the land west of the river, Wei will lose a lot of fertile land, and the national strength will decline rapidly, and then we only need to recuperate for a few years, whether it is to go north to capture Shangjun, or continue to attack Hangu Pass, it is all to explore and take things!"

Since the separation of the Three Jin Dynasty, wars between the countries have become more and more frequent, and various covenants can be said to be formed today and torn up tomorrow, and the same is true of the covenants between Qin and Qi.

This time, Qin Guo completely let Qi Guo block the gun and hide behind himself to take advantage.

After listening to Gongsun Ying's explanation, the Marquis of Qin immediately agreed to postpone the dispatch of troops, preparing to wait until Wei was exhausted due to continuous battles, and then suddenly send troops to attack Wei.

After fighting with Wei for a while, the Qi State found that the Qin people had no intention of sending troops at all, which made the Qi State furious.

"Your Majesty, the Qin State is going to wait until my Qi State and the Wei State have separated the winners and losers, and then take the opportunity to pick up the cheap!" Lu Ji's face was a little ugly. Qi Guo, who was originally going to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, suddenly found that he had become a tiger being watched.
