Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

The hall suddenly fell into silence, only the sound of Duan Ganzi's constant kowtow and bang bang echoed.

After a while, Wei Wangyu let out a long sigh, and returned to his seat listlessly.

"Okay, stop knocking."

Duan Ganzi raised his head in surprise, and met Wei Wangyu's pale face.

Suddenly, Wei Wangyu roared again.

"The widow will never allow myself to be surrounded by Zhao people again, never!"

When Duan Ganzi heard this, his heart immediately sank to the bottom of the valley.

As far as the current situation is concerned, if the troops are not withdrawn, what will be used to resist the Zhao people's offensive?

After Wei Wangyu lost his temper, he seemed to regain his sanity again, and said slowly, "Duan Qing, send someone to find Kuangliang immediately."

"Kuang Liang?" Ganzi Duan was a little confused.

Wei Wangyu nodded, and said: "At this point, only when Kuang Liang leads the main force of the Qi army to go south to support the frontline troops of the widow can we solve this problem!"

Speaking of it, this is indeed a solution. After all, the main force of the Qi army is now in Liaocheng, and it is not far from the Wei-Zhao battlefield south of the gap, which is only five or six days away.

Duan Ganzi hesitated, and said: "But Your Majesty, if this matter is not approved by King Qi, it will be difficult to do it."

Kuang Liang is the general of Qi, why should he listen to you?

Wei Wangyu roared again: "Then immediately send someone to find Tian Jian and ask him to order Kuang Liang to lead the army to the south! Tell Tian Jian that guy, if he doesn't send troops to support the widow, then the widow will be finished , Tian Jian won't get any benefit!"

Chapter 7 Anxiety (first update)

Linzi.

Qi Wangjian sat at the top of the palace, looking listless and overindulgent, looking at the restless Xiangbang Housheng in front of him and said: "Hou Qing, I feel that the current war situation seems to be a little bit unreasonable for me. Not good."

Hou Sheng sat in front of Qi Wangjian, his face changed slightly when he heard the words, and then he said to Qi Wangjian: "Your Majesty is joking. Our warriors have already defeated the invincible Lian Po, and even took back Gaotang City. But it was an out-and-out victory. The situation is good now, and it is possible to defeat the country of Yan at any time, so why is it unfavorable?"

Qi Wangjian rubbed his temples, and said to Hou Sheng: "Houqing, Houqing, what I'm talking about is not Zhao Guo. Now everyone knows that the Yan people are sending troops to attack the territory of the widow. Tell me what to do about this matter." .”

Regarding Yan's sudden dispatch of troops, Qi Wangjian was somewhat annoyed.

You must know that Qi Wangjian wanted to complete the unfulfilled will of Qi Xuan Wang before, and annexed the entire Yan Kingdom in one fell swoop.

However, due to the unfavorable start of the army, the people of Qi State were not able to annex Yan State at lightning speed as Qi Wangjian had expected in advance when they were fighting alone. Instead, they encountered very strong resistance in Yan State. In the end, Qi Wangjian Also had to cease war with Yan.

It is precisely because of this that Qi Wangjian is very resentful towards Zhao Guo in his heart.

In Qi Wangjian's opinion, if Zhao Guo is willing to support his plan and the two countries continue to send troops to attack Yan State together, then Yan State has already been wiped out, so why are there so many things now?

This is also an important reason why Qi Wangjian joined the anti-Zhao alliance.

For Qi Wangjian, being suppressed by Zhao Guo is definitely a very unpleasant thing, so when he learned that Kuang Liang on the front line had defeated the invincible Lian Po, Qi Wangjian's ecstasy can be imagined .

But under such circumstances, Qi Wangjian heard the news that the Yan people sent troops.

It's like just being lingering with a beautiful woman for three poles in the sun, and then stepping on a lump of that when you go out, which makes Qi Wangjian's mood not beautiful in an instant.

What makes Qi Wangjian even more unhappy is that in just a few days, the battle situation in the Yan Kingdom has been eroded so quickly.

It took Qi Wangjian two years to lay down the territory, but now almost half of it has been lost in less than ten days.

"What are these guys doing? I believe them in vain! These cities have been donated by the Yan people, and they have nothing to do!"

Undisguised anger was revealed in Qi Wangjian's words, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with the dereliction of duty of those Qi officials who were unable to control the situation.

When Hou Sheng heard that Qi Wangjian was so angry, his heart beat a little.

You must know that the personnel power of Qi State has always been held in the hands of Hou Sheng, the Xiangbang. After obtaining the territory of Yan State, the gate of Hou Sheng's family is really full of people, and many people rush to give gifts to Hou Sheng. I want to let myself or my children go to those newly occupied lands to become officials.

After winning this person, he is famous for taking money and doing things well.

So after accepting the gifts from everyone with a smile, Hou Sheng naturally sent these generous guys to the newly occupied land of Qi State with a swipe of a pen, and asked them to help Qi State manage these lands.

Of course, Hou Sheng is still very fair. The level of official position basically refers to the number and value of the gift, as well as the relationship status of the gift giver, etc., which is quite "fair".

As the saying goes, three years to clear the magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflake silver.

Although this sentence only appeared in later generations, in this era, some people have already practiced this sentence.

It is naturally impossible for those officials who became officials after bribery to succeed in the future to make themselves lose money, so they intensified their efforts to exploit the former Yan people who had just become Qi people under their rule.

It was under such harsh exploitation that the people of Yan State could not bear to launch rebellion, and when the Yan army returned, it completely formed a wildfire.

The reason is that the reason why the current state of Yan's battlefield is so rotten is actually inseparable from Hou Sheng.

It’s just that it’s impossible to tell Qi Wangjian about such a thing, and he can only apologize with a smile: “My lord, in fact, I think this matter is mainly because the main force is now fighting Zhao Jun. There are some ordinary frontier soldiers on the border of Qi, and the people in the place just occupied are uncertain, and everyone has their homeland in their hearts, so it is not too strange to have this battle situation."

When Qi Wangjian heard this sentence, he immediately became unhappy: "What does this mean? Could it be that the officials of Qi State are not as good as their officials of Yan State? The widow has announced that all Yan State people will be exempted from tax for three years. Even if they return to the country of Yan, do they still have this kind of treatment? In addition, didn’t the widow ask you to re-measure and divide the land for them? There is land and tax exemption, why do they still fight against the widow? ?”

It can be seen that Qi Wangjian is a little distressed and very puzzled.

It doesn't make sense, you obviously put your heart and soul into it, but it can't be sold well, why is that?

From these measures to buy people's hearts, it can be seen that although Qi Wangjian is mediocre, he still has the basic ability to govern the country.

But what he doesn't know is that his measures are certainly good measures, but no matter how good the measures are, they must be implemented by competent officials.

After Hou Sheng heard Qi Wangjian's words, a few drops of cold sweat dripped quietly on his face.

That's right, although Qi Wangjian did promulgate such a policy, but under Hou Sheng and those greedy officials of the Qi State, these policies of buying people's hearts have long since become waste paper, and none of them have been implemented at all.

It's just that all of these were concealed by Hou Sheng and the Qi officials, and they were not reported to let Qi Wangjian know.

Since Hou Sheng himself was also involved in it, he naturally wouldn't tell the truth, so he could only bite the bullet and answer: "My lord, I think your policy is indeed very good, but after all, Yan and Qi have been doing this for so many years. Since they are all mortal enemies, the people of Yan Kingdom are definitely not willing to submit to the king just like that."

Qi Wangjian pondered for a while, with an angry expression on his face: "These damned people of Yan Kingdom simply don't know what to do! Forget it, I don't bother to argue with them. After defeating Zhao in this battle, I will let these Yan people Take a good look at the strength of the widow!"

Obviously, Qi Wangjian said that he didn't intend to pay attention to the war situation in the north for the time being.

In fact, there is no way to do this, because what Qi State has to deal with is Zhao State, the most powerful country in the world. Naturally, all elite troops must be gathered to fight Zhao State, and they dare not neglect in the slightest.

Under such circumstances, how can Qi State have an army to fight against the current Yan State?

I can only watch the Yan people show off their power, and hope that the Yan people's offensive can be slowed down.

Seeing that Qi Wangjian was no longer entangled in this matter, Hou Sheng felt lucky in his heart, quickly changed the subject, and said to Qi Wangjian: "Your Majesty, there is another matter that I must report to Your Majesty."

Qi Wang Jianxing said in awe: "Say."
