Be a sick and weak noble son in Daqin

Zhao Hou was stunned. He has been a king for decades, and he has never seen such a brazen person. He was so arrogant before the alliance started. Is it because he has no way to deal with them?

Mr. Qin didn't think there was anything wrong with his words. Now it's the state of Zhao attacking Wei. It's no problem for him to stand on the side of the state of Wei and attack Zhao in turn. Zhao Jun couldn't defend the city by himself. Is there a problem with the Acropolis that China took?

"Or is it that Marquis Zhao wants to give up Jinyang for those small towns?" Duke Qin, who was dressed in black and looked extraordinarily cold, stood beside the map with his arms folded, and continued with a slight frown, "If Marquis Zhao wants to give up Jinyang, it is Another way of talking."

Zhao Houqi blushed, his neck was thick, and he could hardly sustain his self-cultivation for decades. He clenched his fists and took a few deep breaths, then gritted his teeth and said, "Change! But there can't be so many villages! "

The status of Jinyang is not comparable to that of Handan, but it is definitely not something that can be replaced by ordinary small towns. The never-falling city that once allowed the Zhao family to turn the tide was carefully built by the two generations of monarchs Jianzi and Xiangzi in the face of attacks from the Jin state. In Jinyang, there is no Zhao State now.

The city of Jinyang, which is strong and well-stocked, has saved the crisis of the Zhao family several times. After the three families were divided into the Jin Dynasty, it became an important city for the Zhao State to attack the north. Since the founding of the State of Zhao, Jinyang has been the capital of Zhao for 28 years, until Huanzi The capital was moved to Zhongmu, and then the capital was moved to Handan, and then gradually out of everyone's sight.

Jinyang is not the capital city now, but that doesn't mean that place is not important. When Qin State was beaten by Wei State in a corner and couldn't get up, he could relax his vigilance there. Now Qin State has obviously started to eye the Central Plains. If Zhao Guo loses Jinyang, they can hit Handan directly tomorrow.

Zhao Hou clenched his fists and thought, seeing that Duke Wei was sitting leisurely beside him and didn't intend to speak, he said in a gloomy voice, "The day of the alliance has not yet come, so it's too early to say these things now."

If he could, he would have waved his sleeves and left now, but he was really worried about letting Qin Wei flirt with him right under his nose, no matter how annoyed he was, he had to sit here now.

He would like to see what kind of plan Duke Wei has in mind. The barbaric land of Qin is actually worthy of his support?

It is a benefit now, and when Qin’s appetite is raised in the future, seeing whether he is crying or laughing, Zhao Hou forcibly suppressed the anger in his chest, and looked at the gentle and noble handsome young man opposite him, grinding his teeth, "Mr. Wei is very calculating. .”

Duke Wei nodded slightly, "It's not as capable as Marquis Zhao. Opening up borders and expanding land is the wish of the rulers of all ages. There are few such outstanding monarchs as Marquis Zhao in ancient and modern times."

There are three Jins between Qin and Wei. Even if Qin wants to rule the Central Plains in the future, they will be the first to be beaten by the Three Jins. They are more of a threat.

The lesser of two evils, he Wei Bushii is not a fool, so he naturally knows which one to choose.

Wei Ji looked at his brother's flirtatious, brow-eyed eyes happily. It was just two people. If there were more allies, courtiers and monarchs gathered together, then the quarrel would be really lively.

It's nothing for a few parties to negotiate and throw sticks over the table. If they quarrel in court, they can still fight directly. When this is about national interests, they can directly use knives when they are anxious.

Of course, there were a lot of soldiers guarding outside, and they usually used knives to scare people, but few actually stabbed them.

Duke Qin participated in this kind of high-end quarrel for the first time, and he pondered for a long time before he realized that Zhao Hou was satirizing Wei Gong and Qin State for their cooperation in calculating Zhao Guo, while Wei Gong accepted it calmly, and then said that Zhao Hou worked hard to conquer the city, and in the end it was We have to return the city under pressure.

As the pressure to make Zhao Guo compromise, Qin Gong puffed up his chest, feeling that he had a lot of face, and waited for the two of you to come and talk to each other, and then knocked on the case and asked, "So Zhaohou Do you think it would take a few cities in Zhao to replace those twenty towns?"

While the troops on both sides have not withdrawn yet, if you really don't mind spending money and effort, you can give me a promise, so that Jinyang can knock down enough cities before the auspicious day.

Zhao Hou was suppressed and beaten by Duke Wei in terms of words, and he heard the meaning of Duke Qin's words. Finally, the anger in his heart could not be controlled. Jinyang, Duke Qin likes to do it for himself."

Qin Gong watched him leave angrily, asked people to move the case out, and then said inexplicably, "The 20 soldiers and horses are fighting against Diyi in the north. As long as they are transferred away from the northern part of Zhao State, there will be foreign tribes. Do you think I'm stupid or is he being angry and stupid?"

"I'm getting older, and I can't tell if I'm old and confused." Wei Gong still smiled, and threw out a sentence with the corners of his lips slightly raised, then looked at his precious brother who hadn't spoken all the time, and said, "Ji'er, just saw that Good show, how do you feel now?"

The young man who was still immersed in the tacit understanding between his elder brother and Qin Gong when they met for the first time was stunned for a moment, hesitated and then said, "Brother, were you a little too aggressive just now?"

"Is this aggressive?" Wei Gong shook his head, seeing that the baby brother seemed to be worried that Zhao Hou would be unfavorable to them when he went back, he laughed and said, "Remember, the alliance letter written on parchment can be torn at will Just listen to what you said in private, if you really take it to heart, you will fall into the trap."

I didn't say this with Wei Ji himself, but with Duke Qin's education. All the national alliances have always bullied strangers, and they are used to bullying. Now that they have become the weaker side, they will certainly feel uncomfortable.

Zhao Guo is now so reluctant to just spit out part of the city he robbed at the beginning. As a victim, he Weiguo is now capable of taking the city back, even if it is risky, he must rob it.

This is where he came from. When he first succeeded to the throne, Marquis Zhao led troops to block the city of Diqiu. He was forced by the State of Wei and could only cede land for survival. That is the real aggressiveness.

Wei Ji was keenly aware of the chill in his brother's words, nodded to show that he had made a note of it, and then made a note of one thing in his heart, that is, their Wei State was the same as Zhao State except for the incompatible relationship with the Wei State next door. on opposing sides.

He originally thought that Zhao Guo didn't have much enmity with them, but now that he thinks about it, it's not that they have no conflicts with Zhao Guo, but that the behavior of Wei Guo next door is too eye-catching, so that other people's actions can't be seen, but Wei Wang He has never publicly expressed his intention to destroy the guard, but Zhao Hou has already started to do it more than ten years ago.

Weiguo is not a big place at all, and the 73 villages of Weiguo captured by Marquis Zhao took up less than half of Weiguo. The chaos in the country has been repeated for many years, and the number of cities that have been taken away by the opportunity is unknown. No wonder the elder brother and Zhao Hou started the battle mode as soon as they met.

Qin Gong sat upright and listened to Wei Gong's speech. There were too many twists and turns in the alliance. If no one took it with him, Qin would have to suffer a lot before he could really gain a firm foothold.

Wei Gong is really a good person, knowing that they don't have the confidence to come here and talk to him about this, the call "big brother" is worth it.

Duke Qin was so moved that he waited until the person in front of him stopped to drink water and expressed his determination, "Don't worry, brother, this time let Zhao Guo return the twenty cities first, and next time there is a chance, I will definitely let them swallow everything." Only by spitting it out."

"Cough cough cough-"

"Brother!" "Big brother!"

Duke Wei suddenly heard such ambitions, he choked without swallowing a sip of water, coughed for a while and finally recovered, looked at the solemn young Qin Jun who promised him, his lips trembled for a long time and he was unable to speak.

Should it be said that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers?

Zhao Hou suffered a big loss because he was unprepared this time. When he was prepared, Sun Boling's tactics were no match for Zhao's hundreds of thousands of troops.

Wei Gong recovered his breath and raised his hand to signal Wei Ji who wanted to speak to continue to sit obediently, then looked at Qin Gong and asked, "If the three Jins join forces to attack Qin at this time, will Qin have the power to resist?"

The young Lord Qin shook his head with self-knowledge, "Qin's new army is still in training, and now only Chief Zuo Shu is in charge of government affairs in the country. If the Three Jins attack Qin at this time, the army from Jinyang will not have time to return to help. Undoubtedly defeated."

"Knowing that you will be defeated, you are still so arrogant. If Mr. Qin wants you to waste all your previous hard work, just continue to provoke Zhao Guo." Wei Gong wiped off the water stains on the case, got up and went to the shelf where the map was hung, looked at it for a while, and looked at Qin. Gong didn't reply, he frowned and turned his head, "Are you deliberately provoking the three Jins to join forces to attack Qin?"

Qin Gong sighed, gave a wry smile and replied, "It's all the idea of ​​Chief Zuo Shu and the military adviser. I can't think of such a good idea."

Qin State wants to go east, and sooner or later it will have a battle with the Three Jins. This battle is too late, Zuo Shuchang’s next reform is even more traumatic than the previous one. To subjugate the country, the Qin people had to make a choice.

He understands that the reform requires bloodshed and sacrifice. Instead of shedding blood on internal struggles, it is better to leave his life outside Hangu Pass, so that he can gain the reputation of dying for the country.

Wei Gong was silent for a while, shook his head and said nothing, Wei Yang and Sun Boling could come up with such an idea, it must be that they could not suppress the forces opposing the reform in Qin State, reform is never an easy task, especially Qin The public is still young, and the previous generations of the public office have been chaotic, and the power in the country has begun to be inferior to the old clan that has taken root for hundreds of years. If they don't want to solve it from the outside, they can only use their own knives.

Killing one's own people with a knife, and dying on the battlefield with the soldiers, the difference is huge. In recent years, it may not show much. When the old clan counterattacks in the future, not only Wei Yang, but even Duke Qin may not be able to fight back. good death.

If the common people can't survive, they can gather crowds and rush to the palace to overthrow the regime. The old clan is so powerful that if they really want to make trouble, the whole Qin country will be dragged down.

"Brother, don't worry. Although the people of Qin are stubborn, they are absolutely clear in the struggle between family and country. It is better to go to war with the three Jins than to kill each other." Qin Gong himself was quite open, said a few words with a grin, and then looked at Wei. Ji, "Does Ji'er also think that as long as you come back, twenty villages are a bit small?"

Sitting there, Wei Ji was thinking about the possible coming of the Three Jin Allied Forces to attack Qin. When he heard the question, he raised his head and glanced at the map, and then said slowly, "It's quite a lot. Zhaohou can return ten seats. Fortunately, Your Majesty, don't have too much hope."

He is a little dazed now, and he never thought that putting Wei Yang and Sun Boling together would bring about such a big change. Using external contradictions to divert internal contradictions sounds many times better than what he originally imagined.

Qin State was the most thorough and successful reform among the vassal states, which laid a solid foundation for the first emperor to rule the world. Shang Yang died, but the new law was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. This shows the effectiveness of the Qin State Reform.

However, no matter how outstanding the results were, it could not conceal the fact that Qin Gong died of illness and his defender Yang was framed to death. The Qin people attacked Shang Jun, killed him, and destroyed his family.

After being killed in battle, he was torn apart by a car, and the whole family was killed. The old clan's hatred for Wei Yang is evident. Suppressing the hatred cannot solve the problem, but transferring the hatred to the three Jins who attacked Qin. Will the clan be less opposed to the reform when they come back after venting their anger?

As expected, he was still too naive, thinking that if the people of Qin had enough to eat, the reform would be able to proceed smoothly, but he didn't know that the old clan would not worry about food. Medicine, let them understand that if the Qin State does not change its laws, it can only be annexed by Han Zhaowei, so that Wei Yang will have a way out in the future.

Senior Brother Wei Yang probably didn't come up with this idea. If he could come up with this idea, he wouldn't end up in such a tragic end in the history books. Excluding him, only Senior Brother Sun is left.

It was definitely the most correct thing he did to lure Senior Brother Sun to Qin, not one of them.

Wei Ji's heart suddenly filled with boundless pride, his Senior Brother Sun could pull Senior Brother Wei Yang out of the five-horse corpse if he was serious, and what the Three-Jin Allied Forces attacked Qin would be nothing to him.

At this time, Sun Dajun, who had already arrived at Huimengtai, had an itchy nose and sneezed, and almost fell off the carriage with a sway. Wiped off the cold sweat.

It's nothing for them to be hit by themselves, but it's not good for Sun Junshi to fall.

Sun Boling pinched his nose and saw Duke Qin's tents around Huimeng Terrace at a glance. He waved his hand to ask people to report first, and then pushed the wheelchair over by himself.

He sneezed as soon as he arrived, who missed him?
