Chapter 337 Qin Yan Secret Alliance, Yan Dan's Ambition
"Mr. Yanchun, in this way, do you agree to cooperate with Qin to encircle and suppress the armies of Zhao and Chu?"

Zhang Ji looked at the sensible Yanchun Jun with a smile on his face.

Yanchun Jun was far easier to get tricked than he thought, which was a bit beyond his expectation.

Luo Wang's analysis of Yanchun Jun is that he is greedy for money, lustful, and power, but in general he still abides by the laws of Yan.

Moreover, even though Lord Yanchun and Yandan were already at odds, Lord Yanchun mostly did not stop Yandan from placing his confidants in the Yan court.

Concealed's analysis is that Lord Yanchun still has the Kingdom of Yan in his heart.

Maybe Yanchun Jun once had blood and great ambitions like Yandan in his heart.

Just like since ancient times, there has never been a king who wanted to be a foolish king. Whoever did not insist on great achievements after ascending the throne, but in the end did not persevere due to various reasons.

It does not rule out that Lord Yanchun understands that his interests can be maximized only when Yan is prosperous and strong.

But no matter what the reason was, Lord Yanchun did not stop Yan Dan from planting his confidants, and even backed down a lot in secret.

Therefore, I thought it would take a lot of talking and talking to persuade Lord Yanchun to form an alliance with Qin, but I didn't expect Lord Yanchun to readily agree.

"Naturally, the reason for sending troops this time is because of Zhao Guo's coercion."

Lord Yanchun's voice was full of resentment, Zhao Jun entered the border of Yanzhao, and then Pang Nuan re-entered Jicheng to "politely" lobby his elder brother, Yan Guo will participate in this alliance.

Otherwise, what reason does Yan have to send troops?

It must be known that the distance between Yan State and Qin State is more than a thousand miles?
And if the coalition forces win, not only will Yan not be given half an inch of land, but they may also face a more powerful Zhao State with many conflicts.

Therefore, from the first time Yan State participated in Hezong, he either secretly communicated with Qin State to sign a peace agreement or even a covenant in private, or he fished in troubled waters and did not work hard.

Compared with a state of Zhao that would attack the state of Yan regardless of victory or defeat, Mr. Yanchun is more willing to believe in a state of Qin that even if it wins, it may not be able to destroy the state of Zhao and thus border on the state of Yan.

"It's just that although I am the main general of the Yan army, there are still deputy generals in the army."

Saying that, Yanchun Jun looked at Yan Dan.

Judging from Yandan's performance just now, Yandan does not support the Yan army's defection, but tends to stand still or even withdraw troops quietly.

Although Yan Dan's character is a bit despicable, she also has some talent and vision.

The Yan army did not move or even quietly withdrew, at most it left a cowardly statement, and the coalition forces could not blame Yan.

However, if the Yan State turned against the enemy and encircled and suppressed the Zhao and Chu armies with the Qin State back and forth, that would be a flagrant betrayal.

"I also know what the prince is worried about."

Zhang Ji had done his homework in advance. This plan of attacking back and forth was discussed with Wang Jue, Yang Duanhe, Meng Ao and others, and it was in the best interest of Qin.

But Zhang Ji also asked everyone to think from the perspective of Yan Guo, and deduced what Yan Guo might be worried about.

"Yan Guo and Zhao Guo have a deep hatred, why not send troops to avenge?" Zhang Ji pointed his hand on the land of Yan Dai on the map, "Avenge for the country, Wei, Su Fu, Qing Qin, Ju Xin, etc. Why not take revenge on the ministers who have died fighting on this land for many years?"

"Furthermore, if Zhao State is defeated miserably, how can it have the strength to attack Zhao State? And Chu State and Yan State are separated by thousands of miles, how can they retaliate?"

Yan Dan's gaze moved slightly.

As Zhang Ji said, if the [-] troops of Zhao State were wiped out in the hinterland of Qin State, what power would Zhao State have to threaten Yan State?

At that time, Yan State can even attack Zhao State, not only can regain the lost cities in the past, but also capture more cities.

From the corner of Yandan's eyes, he looked at Lord Yanchun. Once he did this, his crown prince position would be completely stable, and he would definitely not be able to replace the son Yin whom Lord Yanchun was trying to support.

However, he was still somewhat worried.

The national power of Qin State is too strong. If it borders on the land of Yan State that annexed Zhao State in the future, if there is a conflict, how will Yan State protect itself?

Zhang Ji saw that Yan Dan had already moved, so he decided to add the last fire to Yan Dan.

Zhang Ji got up, went around the table and walked to Yan Dan's side, whispering in his ear: "Your Majesty has never forgotten the old covenant with HD, I wonder if the crown prince still remembers it?"

Hearing "The Covenant of HD", Yan Dan's body trembled slightly.

Memories flooded in like a flood. At that time, he and Yan Dan were both Zhao Guo's protons, and they were inseparable friends at that time.

Back then, when I was studying history, I read that King Zhaoxiang and King Qimin called each other the Eastern Emperor and the Western Emperor, and I couldn't help but feel emotional.

He stepped on a big bluestone and talked with Ying Zheng about each other's ambitions and the future.

"Zheng, you will definitely become the King of Qin. And I will be the future King of Yan!"

"We've made our own achievements!"

"Wouldn't it be great to have an alliance with each other at that time?"

Yan Dan did not expect that Ying Zheng still remembered the joke that he had long forgotten.

Perhaps, this is not an impossible joke.

"I never thought that King Qin would never forget his old friends and events."

The corners of Yan Dan's mouth are slightly raised, it is a beautiful dream to be an alliance with each other, and he, Yan Dan, will be the one who realizes this dream, will surpass King Yan Zhao, and will be the most outstanding king in the history of Yan Kingdom!

Yanchun Jun looked at Yan Dan and Zhang Ji with some puzzlement. He didn't understand what code word Zhang Ji was hiding, so that Yan Dan agreed to the plan to defect.

But he is the leader of the Yan army, and he is also the leader of the battle. Yan Dan is just an empty shelf without military power. Qin will definitely understand who has done the most.

Of course, the alliance between Qin State and Yan State also needs a formal covenant, otherwise, if this war ends, if Qin State turns its face and refuses to recognize anyone, Yan State will be in danger.

Personal feelings are personal feelings, Mr. Yanchun will not kill a chicken to take eggs, and Yan Dan will not just foolishly believe in the friendship between Ying Zheng and him, so the covenant is necessary.

However, Zhang Ji did not sign a covenant of comprehensive cooperation between Qin and Yan in military, economic and other aspects as the two of them thought. people.

In the covenant, it only promised that Qin State would protect Yan State from Zhao State and send troops to help after Yan State defected to help repel the coalition forces.

Nothing else was promised.

Zhang Ji's explanation was: "I came in a hurry, and I didn't expect Lord Yanchun and His Royal Highness to have such a good impression of Qin, so there is only this preliminary covenant."

"How about signing a new covenant after the war is over?"

This kind of situation is very common. In the past, the covenants between countries had to be revised countless times. Now during the war, the coalition forces blockade Hangu Pass.And the Yan army was already preparing to move into Hedong. It would not be convenient to sign a new covenant, and it might expose the secret agreement between Yan and Qin.

Yan Dan and Lord Yanchun looked at each other. They had no doubts about this point, and they signed the Qin-Yan covenant together on behalf of Yan Wangxi.
