Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 486 Tian Wen and Liu Bang

Chapter 498 Tian Wen and Liu Bang

The nearly 20 soldiers of the Chu army who were captured after a short period of panic at the beginning, are now gradually relieved, and no longer worry that the Qin army will kill them like they did with the Zhao soldiers.

As for Xiong Xin, Zhaotong, Wu Rui and other large and small officials of Chu State, they were imprisoned in Shouchun, guarded by Zhang Han, waiting for the arrival of His Majesty the Great Qin Emperor.

The strict military discipline of the Qin army, and the survival of the entire state of Chu, including King Xiong Xin of Chu, have gradually restored calm to the restless Chu land, and everything is moving in the direction Ying Zheng wants to see develop.

Once the Chu State was destroyed, it was like a bolt from the blue to the surrounding countries.

In Linzi City, Tian Wen was speechless for a long time after listening to his younger brother's account of the First World War in the East China Sea.

If Qin State was his ally, the victory in the East China Sea would indeed be a great joy for Qi State at a time of crisis.

But it is a pity that Qin State is just another tiger that wants to annex Qi State.

Chu State wanted to destroy Qi, and Qin State also wanted to destroy Qi.

However, due to the containment of Chu State, Qin State could not attack Linzi far away.

Chu State also wanted to open a new channel for itself when it destroyed Qi.

The Qi State is just a piece of meat in front of their two families, and they can only be slaughtered without any room to fight back.

But the difference is that with the presence of the Chu State, it is not easy for the Qin State to swallow it directly; with the presence of the Qin State, the Chu State also has to weigh one or two.

The relationship that seems to be biting each other has been maintained smoothly.

But it is a pity that with the battle of the East China Sea, all the elites of Chu State were lost, King Zhang Han and Wang Ben attacked from two directions, the capital of Chu State Shouchun fell, and the King of Chu and all the officials of Chu State were captured.This powerful country that once looked down on the world unexpectedly disappeared as quickly as when Wang Jian broke through Chu.

Without Chu State, Qin State will have no difficulty in swallowing Qi.

"Tian An, tell me, what should we do?"

Tian Wen was troubled for a long time, and finally managed to utter a few words.

But Tian An was not a suitable questioner. It could even be said that during the battle in the East China Sea, Tian An's courage had been completely frightened by the Qin army.

Although I have returned to Linzi at this moment, my courage is still floating in the East China Sea.

Seeing that Tian An didn't have any intention of answering, Tian Wen still wanted to ask, but the attendant at the door quickly walked in.

"Your Majesty, the envoy from Wei State wants to see you."

Tian Wen heard the words as if he had grasped the last straw.

Chu State is gone, and Wei State will bear the brunt. Once the Qin army attacks, he will definitely be the next target.

If it was the Wei State before the drought and flood, it might still have the power to fight.

But the current state of Wei has not yet recovered its national power, and the original food and grass expenditure still needs to be traded with Chu.

With Chu State gone, food and drink for the people and army of Wei State became a problem.

In order to survive, Wei Bao quickly sent out several envoys to ask for help from the three kingdoms of Qi, Zhao and Han, hoping to form a Qin army again and fight to the death with the Qin army.

"Quick... please come in."

After Tian Wen's words fell, about an hour later, the attendants brought a middle-aged man outside the hall.

"The envoy of the State of Wei, Liu Bang, visited the King of Qi."

Tian Wen looked at the slightly white "Pei Gong" in front of him and frowned, "What did King Wei ask you to bring to the widow?"

Liu Bang looked extremely respectful. Seeing Tian Wen's question, he slightly cupped his hands and replied: "Your Majesty, my king would like to ask your country to gather the army to give unified orders and be ready to fight to the death with the Qin army at any time."

Tian Wen's heart was shaken, but he didn't dare to show it at all on the surface. He looked at Liu Bang in front of him and thought for a long time before asking: "Your Majesty, do you think this battle can be won?"

Liu Bang did not answer in a hurry, but quietly looked at Tian Wen in front of him and said: "Winning or losing does not depend on me, but on King Qi."

"at me?"

Tian Wen was a little strange.

"The land of Qi State is thousands of miles away, and the mountains and rivers are easy to defend and difficult to attack. The ancestors of the Tian family relied on this land to achieve hegemony. But now Qi State is repeatedly bullied by Qi and Chu. Why?"

"The key is that the country has no fighting spirit. In today's world, the capable live and the weak die. If Qi doesn't even have the heart to take up arms to compete with Qin, then Qi is destined to be destroyed by Qin."

Tian Wen was a little confused by Liu Bang's deafening words. Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him who was far older than himself, he pondered for a long time and said, "We can fight with Qi, but our country has only tens of thousands of troops. How can we compete with Qin? country to compete?"

Liu Bang said with a smile: "Although there are few soldiers in Qi State, Qi State is rich and strong, with abundant food and grass. My king wishes to ask you to be responsible for the food and grass of my army in the three Jin Dynasties."

"Three Jins? Could it be that the Zhao and Han families also decided to send troops?"

Hearing these words, Tian Wen's eyes shone with a strange light.

The strength of Wei and Qi is not enough to fight against Qin, but if there are Zhao and Han, the odds of winning will be much higher.

"Sanjin was originally a family. Now that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, why do you have any plans to protect yourself?"

After hearing this, Tian Wen felt as if he had taken a piece of reassurance, and nodded repeatedly: "Very good, very good, since King Wei has such intention, our Qi State will ensure the supply of food and grass for the three Jin armies even if we sell iron. "

Liu Bang nodded, and took out a bamboo slip from his arms.

"This is a document with my king's seal. Please see King Qi. If it is correct, please also stamp it, so that I can return to my king as soon as possible."

Tian Wen waved to the attendant next to him. Someone had already left the country with a seal, signed his name and stamped the seal, and the Four Nations Alliance was completely concluded.

Everything was done, Liu Bang bowed to Tian Wen and was about to leave, Tian Wen stopped him immediately.

"What position does your envoy hold in Wei?"

Liu Bang's face was suddenly sad.

As a figure who rebelled with Zhang Er and Chen Yu, after he surrendered to the Wei State, he Liu Bang had no achievements except for the title of "Pei Gong".

It can even be said that the power in his hands is not as good as that of a soldier guarding the gate in Daliang City.

It would be a lie to say that he has no ambitions, but with Wei Bao and Chen Yu beside him, Liu Bang's only trace of ambition can only be suppressed.

This time it was a matter of life and death, and Wei Bao didn't bother to think about anything at the critical moment, so he quickly sent a few people to Zhao Hanqi and the Three Kingdoms.

Liu Bang should not be in this list, but because he has a title, he was sent by Wei Bao.

"What does King Qi mean?"

Tian Wen smiled awkwardly: "Your envoy, don't be suspicious. I just think that your envoy is outstanding, and he can answer questions fluently during conversations, so I want to ask a few more questions."

Liu Bang looked at Tian Wen expressionlessly and said, "My lord, thank you."

Tian Wen didn't know what Liu Bang was thinking. Seeing his unfazed look, Tian Wen sighed with emotion: "You are really a talented scholar of the country. If our country of Qi had people like Mr. Qi, our country of Qi would not be in such a state as it is now. "

Tian Wen sighed softly as he spoke, and was about to let people send Liu Bang away, but he didn't expect that Liu Bang, who had already walked out with one foot, turned sideways and came back again.
