In the blink of an eye, Xu Jiao came to the Wei Kingdom, and a whole month has passed.

A lot has happened in the course of a month.

First of all, Duanguo made a new alliance with Tang on the one hand, and on the other hand, completely tore his face with Wei and began to gather a large number of troops on the frontier.

But Jia Xu is still stranded in Duanguo.

He was still waiting for an opportunity and didn't want to make a trip in vain.

If the timing can be grasped this time, there will be no war between countries.

If this time is wasted, war will soon break out.

Jia Xu's purpose in doing this is also to let the people of the world enjoy peace for a period of time.

The main thing is that, according to the current state of Wei, it is not suitable for a major war.

Secondly, the Song State began to relax some economic exchanges with the Wei State, intentionally or unintentionally.

It is really hard to say whether this is a sign of a thaw in relations between the two countries.

Because of Duanguo's attitude, Zhao Changqing was very angry, and he summoned the ministers to come to the Xuanzheng Hall to discuss the policy of the other side.

If Wei takes military measures or conflicts against Duan State, it is very likely that Song will continue to balance Wei.

One of the opportunities that Jia Xu had been waiting for was when the army of the Tang State crossed over to the Song State.

This is the most sensitive time for relations between countries.

If it is properly grasped, it is likely that Duanguo will take necessary measures to prevent the Tang army from realizing the 'borrowing way'.

But Zhao Changqing didn't want Jia Xu to continue to wait in Duanguo.

The little Duanguo actually gave up the face of the Wei State and still stood with the Tang State, so there is nothing to talk about.

Duanguo should have forgotten that Wei is the most powerful country in the world, there is no one!

A summoning order made Jia Xu return to Luoyang quickly.

Jia Xu's departure faintly made Emperor Duan's eldest grandson Ye notice a hint of bad feelings.

Because his departure was too hurried and too quick.

There must be something wrong with this.

Sure enough, the 600,000 Wei troops gathered on the frontier poured out to launch a war against Duanguo.

The frontiers of Duanguo have all fallen.

It only took one night.

When Emperor Duan learned about this, he felt bad, and he convened his ministers to discuss countermeasures.

However, after deliberating for a long time, they could not find a good solution.

In this war, Zhao Changqing directly ordered, Chen Qingzhi as the pre-war commander-in-chief, Yue Fei as the vanguard, with an irresistible momentum, like Mount Tai pressing the top, quickly occupied several border towns in Duanguo.

While actively organizing the army, Duanguo asked for help from Tang.

But at such a critical moment, the reinforcements of the Tang State actually hesitated.

They refused to send troops and wanted Duanguo to provide grain and grass, which made Duanguo suffer a loss.

In desperation, they could only agree to Tang Guo's request.

In this way, the 400,000 troops of the Tang Kingdom entered the land of Duanguo in a grand manner.

Chen Qingzhi sent a letter to Emperor Duan, and the content of the letter was probably to question and criticize Duanguo's choice.

If Duanguo had agreed to cooperate with Wei, there would not have been today's war.

Although the army of the Tang State was coming over, the Wei State did not attack, but chose to brake quietly.

No matter how many Duanguo's troops came in, the Wei army could not hesitate to strangle and annihilate them.

At this time, the world suddenly discovered one fact, the army of Wei is still the strongest army in the world, the army that destroyed a country.

I don't know why, because of the checks and balances of the four countries, people all over the world have an illusion, that is, the good days of Wei are over.

However, wasn't it because they were afraid of the strength of Wei that the armies of the four countries had to stand together?

In the palace of the Wei State.

Zhao Changqing played chess with Zhuge Liang in the Imperial Garden.

On the nineteen chessboards, Zhao Changqing took the lead in black, and the method was wide open and closed, which belonged to the kind of way of killing 3,000 enemies and losing 800 by himself.

Zhuge Liang is different, he basically plays chess with stability first, and his personality just echoes, he likes to slowly draw it, first to become a momentum, then to gather momentum, and then use the general trend to break the enemy.

Zhao Changqing was quite tricky to deal with.

However, every time Zhuge Liang becomes a player, Zhao Changqing will always not hesitate to damage his chess pieces and break his chess momentum.

In this way, this chess game has fallen into a stalemate.

Even though the two of them are happy to come and go on the chessboard, but they don't put their minds completely on the chessboard, sometimes talking and laughing, sometimes frowning and puzzled, in short, they are talking about the current situation, to be honest, Chen Qingzhi is really a treasure knife is not old, it only took one night, and he won 16 cities in a row, this record is enough to shock the past and the present.

It made him both happy.

It seems that to fight a blitzkrieg, it still has to be handed over to Chen Qingzhi.

After Zhao Changqing fell into a son, he asked Zhuge Liang about Chen Qingzhi's current situation.

Zhuge Liang replied: "Among the ministers, they should be able to defend the border cities of Duanguo, step by step, trying to drag down the Tang State or the Song State. ”

Zhao Changqing was very satisfied with their approach.

This is also the strategy that was set from the beginning.

If you don't fight this battle, for Wei, you can only fall into passivity forever.

He said to Zhuge Liang again: "Now that the country's financial situation is in good shape, can we insist that our country continue to send troops to the border area?"

Zhuge Liang frowned and said: "I'm afraid it's difficult, this year's financial situation is not ideal, firstly, because the previous war has brought too much trauma to our country, and secondly, the economic blockade of various countries has indeed had a certain impact on our Wei country." ”

At this moment, Zhao Changqing was holding a chess piece in his hand and hesitated, and suddenly saw a place where he could land, which was quickly falling with the momentum of thunder, and then said: "It is precisely because of the difficulty that we have to send more troops to the border passes, and the spies between the countries are not fools, they must be aware of the difficulties faced by our Wei State at this moment, so at this moment, it is only right to fight against the water!"

Zhuge Liang said: "I'm afraid that in this way, after this battle, it will take several years before our Wei State can recover its vitality." ”

Zhao Changqing sneered: "That was before! The current Wei State is vast and can withstand tossing! Ordered Bai Qi to lead an army of 400,000 and gather in the border pass area bordering the Liang State. Ordered Zhao Yun to lead an army of 300,000 and quickly make peace with Chen Qingzhi. Xiao Yuming, who is in Jin Land at this moment, should hurry up recruiting troops and horses in the local area, and train an elite army for me in the shortest possible time.

In fact, from the very beginning, Zhao Changqing wanted to fight with Duanguo.

Otherwise, he wouldn't just tell Jia Xu that there is no need to succeed in the discord with Duanguo, but only need to let all countries see Duanguo's uncertain mind.

For Jia Xu, this is simply a breeze.

He did it quite successfully.

Otherwise, there would be no re-establishment of the alliance between Duanguo and Tang in the future.

The re-created covenant was clearly more beneficial to the end country.

But now that the nations are fighting and the rituals are collapsing, can this regional covenant still play a very important role as before?

It's an unknown.

But for Wei, the so-called covenant is just a dispensable thing.

Duanguo is currently facing a great dilemma.

This time, Wei's actions were enough for people with lofty ideals in the world to see Emperor Wei's courage.

It can only be described by the word 'awesome'.
