The Great Wei Empire in the Warring States Period

Wei Ling asked: "How to divert the disaster to the east?"

Hui Shi did not speak first but asked: "Will the king give up the land?"

"As long as it is beneficial to Wei, a little land is nothing!" Wei Ling suddenly became noble.

Hui Shi replied: "Give 100 li of the 300 li of land occupied by Wei from Qi back to Qi, and give another 100 li of land to Han, and then the king will lead the princes of the world to respect the king of Qi as the king!"

"Why? Wouldn't this lose my face!" Wei Ling was 100 reluctant.

Hui Shi laughed and said, "Your Majesty, please listen to me. Returning the land and honoring the Duke of Qi as the king is like borrowing a knife to kill someone! Your Majesty, you returned the occupied territory of Qi to Qi and honored him as the king just to make him arrogant! The King of Qi was praised to the sky by you, the King of Chu will not be happy. The King of Chu is ambitious and likes to use troops. The new King of Chu wants to dominate the world. Qi was honored as the king by your king, and a hundred miles of land was returned to it. The King of Chu will be jealous! There will be a war between Qi and Chu!"

"Then why give the territory to Han?"

"When we attacked Qi, my Wei State gave Han more than a hundred miles of land, but this time we gave Han another 100 miles of land, just to make Han our shield! The area near Qi is Some territories belong to enclaves, but as more territories approach Qi, Han will certainly send heavy troops to guard them. Isn't this a free Great Wall? "

Hui Shi continued, "Your Majesty, Han will always follow the chariot of Wei. Qi will gain territory and Chu will attack Qi. Wei doesn't need to worry about the southeast. We only need to pay attention to Qin in the west. As for Zhao in the north, it is in Wei's pocket! Moreover, Your Majesty can give land to Qi and Han, but all the people in the land can be contained within Wei, leaving empty cities and empty lands!"

"Good! Huizi's plan is very good! Now Wei doesn't have to worry about the east and south!" Wei Long agreed.

Shi Ju stood up and said, "Your Majesty, General Long Jia has mobilized the Guanzhong County. To ensure peace in the west, I think the troops of Xihe County, Hedong County, and Guanzhong County should be under the command of General Long Jia!"

"Okay! Let's do as Sima said! Long Jia, Wei Cuo, the two of you go to Guanzhong County together. Long Jia will be the chief general and Wei Cuo will be the deputy general to lead the war in the west!"

"Yes, sir!"

After leaving the court, Shi Ju found Long Jia and handed him a brocade bag, telling him to open it only in times of crisis.

Qin State Court

Ying Si learned that Wei State sent Long Jia and Wei Cuo to Guanzhong County, which was obviously aimed at Qin State. He said worriedly: "Everyone, Wei State sent Long Jia and Wei Cuo to Guanzhong County to build the Great Wall and fortifications. Long Jia and Wei Cuo are good generals of Wei State. With these two people, it is difficult for Qin State to go east! What should Qin State do?"

General Ying Ji stood up and said: "Don't worry, your Majesty, even if Long Jia and Wei Cuo build a high Great Wall, they can't withstand the sharp edge of our Qin army! And Qin State has already put a nail in Guanzhong County! Now there is no needWorried about being attacked halfway across the river! Our Qin State only needs to attack from multiple directions to catch Long Jia off guard. Even if Long Jia is good at defense, he can't withstand multiple attacks! "

The old general Gongsun Zhuang, who never speaks, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, what the general said just now is very dangerous! Long Jia defeated our Qin State's good general Shu Changguo many times in Hexi, and even General Zhang Jiao fell into Long Jia's hands. This person should not be underestimated. Wei Cuo led the army to defeat Zhao and broke the Chu State's Han River defense line in the battle against Chu. This person's use of troops is only inferior to Pang Juan! Your Majesty should be cautious with the two of them and never underestimate the enemy!"

When Ying Hua heard this discouraging words, he was full of blood and shouted, "Old general, this is to boost others' ambitions and destroy his own prestige! No matter how high the walls of Wei State are, I am willing to lead 5,000 elite soldiers to directly break through the enemy's defense line!"

"General Ying Hua! Back then, Shuchang State had the same mentality as you. It was your mentality that led to Shuchang State being defeated by Long Jia countless times in Hexi!" Gongsun Zhuang retorted.

Ying Si hurriedly dissuaded him, "Old General, calm down, Ying Hua! Why don't you apologize to the old general!"

"I'm sorry!"

"Huh!"

Ying Si asked, "Zhang Zi, how is Zhang Zi's military skills?"

"It's hard to describe how I use military skills. Although I have studied with Guiguzi for a few years..."

"Zhang Zi is Guiguzi's disciple!" Ying Si said in surprise.

Zhang Yi smiled awkwardly, "That's right. Pang Juan and Sun Bin are my senior brothers. Gongsun Yan and I went to study with Guiguzi at the same time."

"Can Zhang Zi's military skills compare to Gongsun Yan's? ”

“Ten Zhang Yis cannot defeat one Gongsun Yan in military operations! But ten Gongsun Yans cannot beat me in the art of diplomacy!”

“Does Zhangzi have anyone to recommend?” Ying Si asked.

Zhang Yi shook his head and said, “No, even if there are those people, they are still studying!”

“Oh, who else does Guiguzi have as students now?”

“Le Yi! His ancestor was the famous general Le Yang of Wei! He learned the theories of the Legalists and the military strategists! He is a man of both civil and military talents!”

“Alas, why is he from Wei again! How can Wei have so many talented people? Why can’t my Qin produce one!” Ying Si complained.

“But your Majesty, don’t be discouraged. In fact, there are famous generals around you, but you haven’t discovered them yet!”

“Which one?”

“Sima Cuo! ”

Qi State Court

Duke Tian Yinqi of Qi looked at the envoy of Wei State below and asked: "Envoy of Wei, what are you doing here this time?"

The envoy of Wei State said: "Wei State is willing to return the 100 miles of land occupied by Qi State to Qi State, and our king is willing to lead the princes of the world to honor Duke Qi as king!"

"King!" Tian Yinqi thought about it day and night, and the thing he dreamed of was so soon in front of him.

Tian Yinqi was overjoyed and said excitedly: "What conditions does your country have?"

The envoy of Wei State shook his head and said: "My king has no conditions! Duke Qi is wise and brave, and he is a wise ruler in the worldYes! Even our prince admires Duke Qi very much! Now Duke Qi has hundreds of thousands of soldiers! Without Tian Ji and Tian Pan, he has Zou Ji and Tian Ying in literature and Sun Bin in strategy. He has the potential to dominate the world. My king dare not compete with Duke Qi! Therefore, he leads the princes of the world to respect Duke Qi as king! My king asks the king to be the king in Pengcheng, Song State!"

Then he knelt down and said: "I pay my respects to the King of Qi!"

Tian Yinqi laughed and said: "King! King of Qi! I can finally become the king of this world!"

Tian Yinqi ordered: "Tian Ying, you are responsible for this matter!"

"Yes! King! ”

Since Tian Ying was defeated by the Han army in the Battle of Xiangling, he was redeemed by his followers with a huge sum of gold. Otherwise, he would still be in the prison of Wei.

After hearing Tian Yinqi's instructions, Zou Ji knew that he had fallen out of favor and planned to leave the court in a few years.
