Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

As soon as Zheng Zhu finished speaking, the expressions on the faces of the Empress Dowager Yan and Le Jian vibrated at the same time, and they exchanged glances quickly, and they both saw expressions of joy in each other's eyes.

Just as Zhao Dan thought before, Wuyang City is really important to the Yan Kingdom today!

The meaning of Yan State taking back Wuyang City is equivalent to Chu State taking back Yingdu, which is definitely a super benefit for the revival of Yan State.

Lejian nodded slowly towards Queen Mother Yan.

The Empress Dowager Yan took her gaze away from Le Jian calmly, and smiled at Zheng Zhu.

"The country of Zhao is the mother country of the old woman. Now that the mother country is in trouble, the old woman will naturally not stand idly by. Lord Chang, you should go and gather troops and send troops to Qi country quickly."

Zheng Zhu was overjoyed when he heard the words, stood up and bowed deeply to the Queen Mother Yan: "The foreign minister thanked the Queen Mother!"

For the two countries, Yan and Zhao, this time it can be regarded as getting what they need.

In fact, it is not that Yan State has never received envoys from Qin State and Wei State. The conditions for the envoys of these two countries are actually Wuyang City and Fenmen City. I don't want to be hostile to Zhao Guo.

Of course, the most important reason is actually one point, that is, until now, the monarchs and ministers of the Yan Kingdom still believe that the Zhao Kingdom is the country that has the hope of having the last laugh.

In view of this, coupled with Zhao Guo's two conditions of "returning the lost land to the Qi State" and "returning the Wuyang State to the Zhao State", which are far more generous than the Qin and Wei camps, it is inevitable for Yan and Zhao to join forces.

A moment later, Zheng Zhu left the hall with a happy face, accompanied by a smiling Le Jian.

Although they have long been used to putting on hypocritical smiles, at least at this moment, the smiles of both of them are definitely from the heart.

Chapter 7 It's time to break the boat (first update)

Yingdu.

If compared with the capital city decades ago, this city has not recovered its strength yet, but King Yuan of Chu could not wait to move the capital of Chu State from Xicheng to here this spring.

Why move the capital here?Everyone knew very well that it was because King Yuan of Chu had already developed fear in the successive failures. He was worried that the State Council of Wei would continue to attack Xicheng, which is close to the State of Wei in the future, so he asked two ministers, Lord Chunshen, to Huang Xie and Shangzhu Guojingyang agreed to move the capital immediately.

Ever since Qin conquered this place and established Nanjun here, Yingdu has been the capital of Qin Nanjun.

But the capital is obviously far from being comparable to the capital of a country, and when the Qin army captured here, all the rare treasures in the palace city of Yingdu were plundered by the Qin people and taken back to Xianyang. By the time the Chu people regained it decades later, the palace city of Yingdu was basically dilapidated.

Fortunately, after several years of repairs, the current Miyagi King Yuan of Chu is actually quite satisfied. As long as he can keep him away from the damn battlefield and the threat of the Koreans and Wei people, that is enough.

But even if the capital is moved, there are still a lot of troubles.

Chu Wangyuan has a very worrying thing recently, and that is the question of whether Chu should send troops immediately in this war.

The two important ministers of Chu State, Chunshen Jun Huang Xie and Shangzhu Guo Jingyang, had a very fierce quarrel in front of Chu Wang Yuan at this moment.

Huang Xie's voice was so high that the entire hall could hear clearly: "We must immediately send troops to support Zhao Guo! Otherwise, once Zhao Guo is defeated, then Han Weiyi will definitely unite and go south. The day of the country's destruction is approaching..."

As soon as Huang Xie said these words, all the Chu monarchs and ministers in the hall were immediately moved in horror.

It is impossible for anyone present to be indifferent to the words of destroying the country.

Chu Wangyuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva with some difficulty, and managed to force a smile on his face: "Mr. Chunshen, things are not so bad, are they?"

Huang Xie shook his head, and said to King Yuan of Chu in front of him: "Your Majesty doesn't know that things in the world are worse than what I said! From what I can see now, Lian Po has already been defeated by the people of Qi. If my subordinates, if Pang Nuan can't defeat the Wei army, then the Zhao country will definitely be defeated. Without the support of the Zhao country, I dare to ask the king, how should we deal with the offensive of the Han-Wei coalition army?"

Huang Xie seemed to be in a real hurry, and even his own king, Chu Wangyuan, wanted to contradict him.

It's no wonder that Huang Xie didn't abide by the principles of the monarch and ministers. In fact, it has been almost two months since the war between Zhao Guo and Wei Guo started. Zhao Guo stabbed South Korea and Wei Guo fiercely from behind.

In Huang Xie's view, only in this way can Zhao Guo be helped to the greatest extent, so that Zhao Guo can relieve the pressure on the frontal battlefield and gain hope of victory.

Chu State and Zhao State are now on the same boat.

But after so many days, Chu Wangyuan did not agree to Huang Xie's request.

why?Because Chu Wangyuan was frightened by the failures in the past few years, he was no longer the aggressive and ambitious Chu king during the Battle of Changping, but became a man who only wanted to close the door. Be the ostrich king of your own king.

Seeing the days passing by and the situation on the battlefield becoming more and more confusing, Huang Xie was anxious and angry, and finally there was the scene of contradicting Chu Wangyuan earlier.

As soon as Huang Xie said these words, Chu King Yuan Ding's face turned red, and he was speechless for a while, causing the rest of the Chu State officials to look sideways at him. .

However, when Huang Xie said these words, some people were not happy. They only heard Jingyang from Shangzhu State of Chu State on the side and said indifferently: "Mr. Chunshen, you keep saying that you will send troops. It's easy to touch, but I also want to ask, where do the soldiers and armor for this army come from? Where does the food and grass come from? If these problems are not resolved, how do you want us to send troops?"

Obviously, Jingyang was the one who opposed sending troops.

If it weren't for the support of the three major families headed by Jingyang, it would have been impossible for Chu Wangyuan to have withstood Huang Xie's pressure for the past two months and insisted on not sending troops.

It is precisely because of this that Huang Xie is very unpopular with Jingyang. It can be said that the old grudges between the two parties have not disappeared and new enmities have been added, and they both wish to trample each other on the ground forever.

Huang Xie sneered, and said to Jingyang in front of him: "Shangzhu Kingdom, as the leader of the army, you dare not win the victory for the king when you encounter something, but drag me here instead. It is an anecdote in the world. If we don’t have armour, we’ll gather as much as we can, if we don’t have food and grass, we can feed on the enemy as long as we invade the territory of Wei State, do you have any other questions?”

Jingyang blushed when Huang Xie said it, but his reaction was also very fast, and he immediately said: "Okay, even if you can solve these problems, then I still want to ask you where the soldiers come from?"

Huang Xie snorted heavily, and said to Jingyang in front of him, "Of course these soldiers will be recruited from all over the place!"

"Recruitment?" Jingyang also sneered, and said to Huang Xie, "Mr. Chunshen, don't even think about it. How many places in the current Dachu can you recruit soldiers?"

What Jingyang said is also true. Today's Chu State can be said to be full of wars, and the loss of Jiujiang County has completely cut off the connection with the eastern land. Compared with the peak period, the resources and population that can be mobilized are smaller. I don't know. How many.

In the current state of Chu, even 10 troops cannot be assembled.

Huang Xie stared at Jingyang fiercely, and said to Jingyang: "Of course there is a way, but I don't know if Shangzhu Kingdom dares to listen!"

When Jing Jing heard that it was impossible to show weakness, he said directly: "Why don't you dare? Even if it comes!"

Huang Xie nodded, a cunning light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly: "Shangzhu Kingdom, if I remember correctly, the Rujing clan alone has more than three thousand followers, plus the Jing clan There are many fiefdoms, and there must be at least 5 people and slaves, so it must not be difficult to transfer 5 or 2 of the [-] people to join the army, right?"

Jingyang didn't expect Huang Xie to say this, his whole face blushed, and he said angrily to Huang Xie: "Those are all the property of the Jing family, and I am not the only one who can decide! "

"Really?" Huang Xie sneered very contemptuously, and said to Jingyang: "Aren't you the current patriarch of the Jing clan? So, the patriarch Ru is just a display? Now that the country is in crisis, the Jing clan As a public clan, don’t you even have the courage to send troops to save Chu from danger?”

The series of bombs thrown by Huang Xie directly made Jing Jing's face pale. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he said to Huang Xie, "Mr. Chunshen, don't just talk about the Jing clan! Your fief is full of people. There are twelve counties, which are larger than all the fiefdoms of the Jing clan combined! Why don't you mention sending troops yourself?"

Huang Xie smiled contemptuously, and looked at Jingyang with the eyes of an idiot: "Did Shangzhu Kingdom forget that all my fiefdoms are in Jiujiang and Kuaiji County! As long as the motherland can send someone to contact Jiujiang County Or in the case of Kuaiji County, then even if I conscript everyone in the fief into the army, what's the point?"

Jingyang was speechless.

Huang Xie didn't go to Guan Jingyang any more, but turned his head and bowed to Chu Wangyuan, who was headed up, and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, I can understand your hesitation before. But what I want to tell you is that the time is right now. At present, if the king does not send troops, then I am afraid that there will be no chance to recover Jiujiang County and other lands lost to the Han and Wei countries."

Chu Wangyuan was still a little hesitant at first, but when he heard Huang Xie say that he had the opportunity to take back the lost land, his spirit was lifted, and he asked Huang Xie, "What is the meaning of Chunshen Jun?"

Huang Xie said sternly: "Now that the Zhao army has defeated the Koreans in Shangdang County, it proves that the Koreans are not enough to compete with Zhao Guo. And according to the intelligence of the spies, the front line of Wei Guo is also in danger now, and there will be wars at any time." It may be broken by Zhao Jun. If this is the case, then Zhao Guo’s victory this time is a foregone conclusion. If the king wants Zhao Guo to order Han and Wei to return the lost land of Da Chu after the war, he must Time to join the fray."

Jingyang said hesitantly: "You were just saying that Zhao Guo was in danger!"

Huang Xie snorted and said, "That's on the premise that Da Chu doesn't participate in the battle! And even if Da Chu doesn't send troops, Zhao Guo is not guaranteed to be defeated!"

Huang Xie's words were obviously exaggerated, but Chu Wangyuan had indeed listened to it.
