The scorching sun was in the sky and the heat was overwhelming. After Fengchang, who was in charge of the etiquette of the ancestral temple, gave another auspicious date, although Zhao Hou had a bad face, he did not open the case and leave on the spot like last time.

The atmosphere at the meeting table was stagnant. The guards who presided over the meeting had never seen such a meeting. The monarchs of the three countries did not say a word. Emotions can be fought just by looking at them.

Fortunately, Zhaohou left after stamping his seal, otherwise they wouldn't be able to stop them if there was a real fight.

The sun was shining brightly and the sky was cloudless. Zhao Bing, who had been tied up, was released after Zhao Hou stamped his seal on the alliance book. Hundreds of shame-faced soldiers stood there neatly, dejectedly. Baji was hit hard.

They never imagined that they could be beaten so helplessly in Weiguo. Even if it was the Qin people who did the attack, they would not be able to get over that hurdle in their hearts.

Although there are weak Chirp guards who haven't even seen blood around here, they can't be so vigilant. None of the hundreds of brothers reacted. Was their previous battle in vain?

Zhao Hou had just lost 35 cities, and he was in no mood to talk at the moment. He counted the number of people and made sure that all those who were locked up were released.

The sound of horseshoes went from near to far to the end, leaving only a cloud of dust and smoke. Wei Guofeng, who hadn't had time to leave, was always terrified. He always felt that although the letter of alliance returned the city, Zhao Hou would snatch it back in a blink of an eye. , Alas, is it easy for them to guard a few cities pitifully in the precarious Central Plains?

A group of ministers shook their heads and prepared to return to the city in twos and threes. Taking back the city is not just as simple as talking about it. The household registration, population and other things in the city have to be taken over again. Those people in the city have been under Zhao Guo for more than ten years. There will be people who feel that they are Zhao people, and they may not be sure. They have to deal with everything, a total of 35 cities, and they will be busy in the future.

Duke Qin was dressed in a black robe, and it looked very hot under the sun, but the soldiers would only get hotter in armor, so he didn't care that much.

Zhaohou has already left, and they have to rush back to Qin as soon as possible. It would be bad if the three Jin allied forces raised the banner but he was not in Qin.

There is an ice basin in the well-decorated room, and the heat is completely blocked outside. As soon as people walk in, they are refreshed, feeling the coolness around them is not too comfortable.

Young Master Qi stayed in Qiyi for a few days, and played around with Prince Xi every day, forgetting all about his uncle outside the city. When he knew that they were about to leave, his eyes were full of confusion, "Isn't it going to take many days to meet? It's over so soon?"

"It is true that a normal alliance will take many days, but you Qin people are not normal people, so it is completely reasonable to end so soon." It can be seen what their Qin people are like in ordinary times, and his father deliberately obstructed it, Zhaohou can survive until now is not bad.

Young Master Qi's expression was a little downcast, as if he hadn't recovered from the shock of leaving the Central Plains soon, and before he came out, he agreed with his two younger brothers to mention them more to Brother Ji, but after arriving, he had so much fun that he only cared about being with him. Brother Xi had acquainted with him in Qi Yichang, but he didn't see brother Ji several times at all.

If those two boys knew that he had missed his business in the Central Plains, wouldn't there be a mess when he went back?

"When my uncle comes back, if you have anything to say, hurry up, or you won't find a chance to say it." Tai Zixi patted the younger brother who had just been accepted on the shoulder twice. The young boy looked gentle and behaved like his father. Carved out of the same mold, getting along makes people feel like a spring breeze, and it is even more difficult to guard against when playing with small thoughts.

It's a pity that son Qi could only see the surface, and was moved to tears after being comforted, but before he could say a few words, Duke Qin sent someone to pick him up.

The child hadn't been seen in the city for so many days, that is to say, Duke Qin had a big heart to be an uncle, so someone else came over and thought it was Duke Wei who had taken him hostage.

Prince Xi squinted his eyes and looked up at the sun in the sky. He really didn't want to go out at this time. Thinking that their father and uncle would not come back under the sun, he couldn't stand Qin Gong's urging, so he could only let the son Qi rode to Huimengtai.

No wonder my father cares so much about my uncle. If he had a younger brother, he would definitely hold him in his hands just like his father. Of course, it’s fine for Gongzi Qi to grow older faster than his age. When his brother is too tired, the younger brother is still the same. It's more caring like their uncle.

The young boy sent him away in a gentle voice, and then walked back pretending to be old-fashioned with his hands behind his hands. He only hoped that Young Master Qi would not ask his father to ask him to go to Qin together, otherwise this would be the last time in his life. Once came to Weiguo.

It's okay to talk in front of him, but in front of his father, even Qin Gong can't protect him.

A few fast horses quickly rushed from the city to the Huimeng Platform. After Prince Qi came to the Central Plains, he entered the city directly and never came out again. This was the first time that he entered the range of the altar seriously.

There is no one in Zhao country, but the camp has not been dismantled, it looks empty and desolate, Qin Gong looked at his nephew who had gained weight after a few days, he was stunned for a moment, he forgot what he was about to say, and blurted out That is, "You kid, you only care about eating these days?"

"No way, second uncle, don't talk nonsense." Young Master Qi didn't even want to refute directly, so he didn't just focus on eating. In the past few days, Mingming and Brother Xi visited the whole Qiyi, not only listening to Qiyi so many times The tragic history of being regarded as a place of alliance, and the current situation of neighboring countries.

He is studying very hard, but he has a big appetite because he is tired from studying. Now that he is growing his body, it is normal to eat a lot.

The young boy retorted loudly, resolutely refusing to admit that he had become mellow in just a few days. Wei Ji was listening to his brother talking about which of the 35 cities that Zhao Guo had returned could produce iron and which had high grain output. Qi's voice was pretending to be fierce, as if he saw a chubby tiger cub screaming fiercely and frighteningly.

"When Qi'er grows up, Qin will have another powerful general." The handsome young man sighed in a low voice, then turned to look at their elder brother, "Brother, what kind of army did you say you wanted to train? "

"Mr. Sun's wheelchair is not bad. If the mechanism can be further reduced so that it can be carried around, will it be more suitable for guards than bows, crossbows and spears?" Wei Gong said slowly, and he had already made a decision in his heart.

The guards are used to being comfortable, and if they are allowed to practice to death like Qin, they can only practice to death in the end. Their bodies are not as strong as those of Qin's soldiers, so they can only find another way.

When Qin soldiers fought, they would often start with a crossbow formation. The thicker, longer and more lethal arrow clusters passed by than ordinary crossbows. No matter how thick the shield was, they could not stop them. The bows they used were different from ordinary bows. The bows and arrows of the Qin State are shot with the strength of the arms, and the crossbows and arrows of the Qin State must be kicked with the feet, and the arrows can be fired with the strength of the whole body. That thing is fine in the State of Qin, and it cannot be even wound in other places. The strength is too small. don't move.

The crossbow guards of Qin cannot be used, but they can be replaced with other weapons. The craftsmen of their Wei State are better than those of Qin State, and there are still descendants of the Gongshu family. There is no reason why they cannot make simpler weapons.

The lethality doesn't need to be high, it's enough to last a few days longer than before and wait for reinforcements.

Now that they have broken with Zhaohou, it is not too abrupt to make some preparations, and it is much quieter to let craftsmen develop new weapons than to train soldiers with great fanfare. If they are more cautious, they can completely hide from the spies of other countries.

Diqiu has a lot of various secret technologies, if he can't even keep these, then there is no hope of protecting the country.

Wei Ji pinched his ears in amazement, and he admired his brother's whimsical ideas very much. It is his brother who can come up with such a way to defend the city with the help of foreign objects.

Back then, Mozi and Gongshuzi both researched the defense equipment and siege equipment. The Mohist disciples had given up their old profession to study the scriptures. If people can be persuaded, Weiguo is very likely to have a sudden change in the style of painting among the Central Plains countries in the future.

It sounds a little emotional.

Next to him, after arguing for a long time about whether he was fat or not, Duke Qin finally realized that this was not the time to talk about it. Mr. Qin rubbed his nose and pretended that nothing happened just now, then turned to look at Mr. Wei, "Brother, The State of Zhao may continue to attack you, do you want me to send two thousand soldiers over here, although it is useless when the army is overwhelmed, it is better than nothing."

Zhao Guo wanted to unite Han Wei to use troops against Qin, so he didn't have the energy to attack Wei Guo. When they freed up their hands to attack Wei Guo, two thousand soldiers could resist for a few days longer.

"No, if you're worried, just keep the soldiers you brought this time. The days ahead won't be so easy. You'd better get through it first and then talk about other things." Wei Gong shook his head and left the army of other countries. It is a very dangerous thing in the country. If you are not careful, you will be usurped and replaced by power. Even if Qin Bing seems to be honest and responsible now, he may rebel and cause chaos in the future. However, compared with the illusory future, the present Crisis is more important to them.

If possible, he really wanted to recruit thousands of Qin soldiers to station in the territory of the Wei State, but in this situation, Qin State itself was more important.

"Alright, when the immediate crisis is over, Qu Liang will come back to thank the eldest brother." Qin Gong said in a deep voice, and asked the elder nephew to stand aside, revealing the military adviser Sun who was blocked behind, and then said, "The military adviser is Come with me, or wait a few days before returning to Liyang?"

"Wait a few more days." Sun Boling replied with a smile. You must have traveled all the way back to Qin State last time. His legs and feet were not convenient, and following him would drag the itinerary. It is the same if you wait a few days before leaving.

Everything that needs to be arranged has been arranged. Gong Ziqian's army is about to evacuate from the Zhao country, and the absence of him will not be a hindrance.

Qin Gong nodded, and was about to say something more, when Jing Jian, who was busy outside, came in hurriedly, and whispered something in their lord's ear, frowning enough to kill a fly.

Wei Ji subconsciously sat upright, not knowing what could make Jing Jian react like this, and then, amidst Qin Gong's roar, the seven or eight-year-old boy poked his head out from the outside, his eyes lit up when he saw him, and wiped his face. She threw her face into his arms and shouted loudly, "Brother Ji!"

Qin Gong was about to go mad with anger, picked him up and beat him up in front of everyone, "You dare to run here alone, don't you think your life is too long?!"

The little prince: "Oh~"

The author has something to say: Ji Zai (muddled): Are all your sons of the Qin Kingdom so stupid?
