The Great Wei Empire in the Warring States Period

Zhang Yi did not see the King of Qi. In the morning, he ran back to Ying Si in a panic and sighed, "Your Majesty, I did not see the King of Qi last night."

"Does the King of Qi not want to see you?"

"No, it was the people from Wei who stopped me. Besides, the King of Qi took his people back to his country early in the morning. Your Majesty, why don't we go back first?"

Ying Si was furious and said, "Wei! I swear to fight you to the death! Either Qin or Wei will be destroyed!"

After eating the peach, Wei Gong said to Huizi, "Prime Minister, try this peach from Qi. , it tastes very good! Do you think our plan can succeed? "

"Don't worry, your Majesty, Chu will definitely go to war with Qi. As long as we successfully annex Zhao, the world will belong to Wei!"

Gongsun Yan came over and said, "Your Majesty, just in case, if the plan fails, I have a plan to unite the two countries!"

"Oh! Unite the two countries?"

"Yes! Unite the two countries!"

…………

A dozen days later, the news also reached Chu. The ministers in the court of Chu were shocked. How dare Qi claim to be king? They didn't take Chu seriously at all. You said Wei claimed to be king, mainly because Wei was a little strong and Chu couldn't beat it, but what is Qi?

Chu Court

King Xiong Shang of Chu was so angry after reading the bamboo slips that he threw them directly into the court and roared: "How dare Qi claim to be king! Why didn't he invite me to go? Qi wants to fly to the sky!"

Ling Yin Duojiao saw that the King of Chu had calmed down, and stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Qi really didn't take Chu seriously when it claimed to be king this time! I think we should send troops to attack Xuzhou of Qi immediately! Let Qi know that in this world, in addition to Wei, the overlord of the Central Plains, there is Chu, the overlord of the South! Without the consent of Chu, Qi can't be considered king!"

"Attack Qi!"

"Attack Qi!"

Xiong Shang nodded and said: "Yes! I couldn't sleep at night and couldn't eat when I heard that Qi claimed to be king! Qi has no hegemony since Duke Huan of Qi! Looking at the world, either Chu is the overlord or Jin is the overlord. The Jin and Wei kingdoms were divided into two kingdoms, and it was not Qi's turn at all! Zhaoyang!"

"Here!"

"I will give you 200,000 troops, attack Qi immediately! Fight all the way to Linzi, Qi, and I will make you come to see me with Tian Yinqi's head! In this world, I will not allow any country to provoke my Great Chu!"

"Long live the king!"

Report~~"King, the Prime Minister of Qin, Zhang Yi, wants to see you!"

When Xiong Shang heard that it was a Qin person, he was furious when he thought of the previous scam, and ordered: "Put the Prime Minister of Qin in the death row, and when the army goes out, I will use his head as a sacrifice!"

"But the king said that there is a very, very important thing to tell you. He said that this matter is very important and is for the king's hegemony!"

"I don't need Qin to help me achieve hegemony."

At this time, the ministers around Xiong Shang said: "Your Majesty, this man is the prime minister of Qin. Killing him will make the relationship between the two countries worse. It is better to listen to what he says first. Moreover, if we attack Qi, what if Qin uses this as an excuse to attack Chu? Then Chu will fall into the crisis of fighting on two fronts!"

Xiong Shang suppressed his anger at being deceived and said: "Call him in! Wait a minute, what does he look like?"

"This man looks like a thief."

"Oh! Then ask him to come in. Actor, go get ready. ”

Zhang Yi walked into the court of Chu and bowed to the King of Chu respectfully, saying, “Greetings, King of Chu!”

Xiong Shang said contemptuously, “Zhang Zi, I remember that when you rush back to Qin from Song, you are allowed to rest for a few days. Why is Zhang Zi in such a hurry? As soon as you arrive in Qin, you rush to Chu? Did Qin lose its country? I heard that Zhang Zi ran to another country so quickly, and it seems that it was during the time of Qin Zhuanggong. At that time, Qin Zhuanggong’s country was occupied by Rongdi and he ran to the Zhou Emperor. The ten-day journey was completed in three days!"

Haha~~

Zhang Yi also laughed and said, "Back then, Chu was occupied by Wu. The king of Chu moved from one place to another, and finally wanted to flee to the Zhou emperor for refuge. It was Shen Baoxu who ran to Qin for help and cried blood. Only then was Chu able to recover. If Shen Baoxu hadn't cried like that, Chu would probably be dead now."

Xiong Shang heard Zhang Yi was exposing Chu's scars, and he suppressed his anger. He said with a smile: "Zhang Zi, I heard that the Duke of Qin arrived late at the meeting and could only get a piece of sacrificial meat that fell on the ground. Am I right?"

"That's exactly what happened. However, all the people in the world are the king's subjects, and all the land under the sky is the king's land! The land under our feet is the land of the Zhou emperor. The sacrificial meat fell on the ground and used the ground as a plate. This is the Zhou emperor using the land of the world to carry this piece of sacrificial meat as a reward to our king. How can the sacrificial meat carried on the jade plate be more important than the sacrificial meat that exists on the land of the world?" Zhang Yi said.

Xiong Shangwu was unable to stop him, so he gestured to the actors nearby. Several actors came out with women's makeup on. One of them pointed at another and said, "Shang Yang! Why hasn't your reform defeated Wei yet? Why did my Qin suffer such a great defeat? A hundred thousand troops were annihilated?"

The actor dressed as Shang Yang cried and said, "Your Majesty, Wei is like the sun in the sky, you can't look up to it! Your Majesty, in order to save the country, I think I should pay tribute to Wei!"

"Perform the etiquette of a subject to the King of Wei!"

"King of Wei, You are like the bright moon in the sky. Without your protection, my Qin State is nothing! Please King Wei protect my Qin State! "

Haha~~

Zhang Yi watched the performance calmly, and Xiong Shang asked with a smile: "Qin envoy, how is this performance?"

Haha~~

Zhang Yi said with a smile: "Good! I am not here to watch the performance this time, but to let the King of Chu understand that this time the King is a conspiracy of the State of Wei!"

Xiong Shang asked with a smile: "What conspiracy? If you Qin State did not succeed in the King, you will sayOthers have a conspiracy!"

Haha~~

Zhang Yi still forced a smile. At this moment, he really wanted to scold Chen Zhen. Why not do something good? He actually cheated other people's cities. If he did that, he really couldn't tell his strategy. He said: "King of Chu, my Qin State is indeed wrong, so I really hope that King of Chu will not fall into the trap this time."

"What trap?"

"Dear King of Chu, Qi State proclaimed itself king, and Chu State sent troops to attack Qi State. Which country can secretly do things behind the scenes?"

Xiong Shang thought for a while and said: "It's not Wei State, it's your Qin State!"

"King of Chu, King of Qin and Chu, think about it again. If Qi and Chu, the two great powers in the world, go to war, Wei State will not be restrained by Chu and Qi. Which country will Wei State attack? ”

“Zhao, Zhao was defeated by Wei in the Battle of Handan three years ago, and its national strength has declined a lot.”

“The King of Chu is wise. If the King of Chu leads the army to have a dispute with Qi, Wei can take this opportunity to annex Zhao. Once Zhao is annexed by Wei, all the countries in the world will be in danger. Although the current Wei is not as large as the former Jin, its national strength is comparable to that of the former Jin. Once Wei expands its territory by thousands of miles, can Chu still stop Wei’s military force?”

When Xiong Shang heard that it was indeed the case, he put aside his prejudice and said, “Thank you for the Qin envoy’s teachings. I understand. I wonder what the Qin envoy wants? ”

Zhang Yi then told his plan of forming alliances. Xiong Shang was not his son Xiong Kui, and he also heard that this plan was completely secretly led by Qin. On the surface, it was a plan for all countries to deal with Wei's hegemony, but in fact it was a secret plan for Qin.

Xiong Shang did not agree immediately, but said: "I understand, I will send troops to attack Wei."

Zhang Yi then said: "Then we should sign an alliance!"

"Let's talk about the alliance later. We have other things to do. Please step aside, Zhang Zi."

After Zhang Yi left, Duo Jiao stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Zhang Yi's words are indeed right, but his plan is on the surface that all countries suppress Wei's hegemony, but in fact it is to prepare for Qin's eastward march!"

Xiong Shang nodded in agreement and said: "I also found out, I wonder what Ling Yin thinks? ”

Duo Jiao smiled and said: "Your Majesty, we can agree to Qin's conditions and form a coalition alliance with Qin, but we cannot let Qin seize Hexi, nor can we let Qi defeat Wei. We should only let Qin take back the lost land of Guanzhong and put it in Qi. We can only let it defeat Wei but not let Qi occupy an inch of Wei's land!"

"Please explain in detail!"

"Your Majesty, we can send 20,000 troops to the border of Wei, but not to attack Wei. We can send another 100,000 troops to the border of Qin. Once Qin intends to attack Wei's Hexi, our Chu will immediately attack Qin! Then send another 100,000 troops to the border of Qi. Once Qi intends to occupy Wei's territory,Our Chu State immediately sent troops eastward to occupy Qi's Xuzhou!"

Xiong Shang was delighted and said: "Ling Yin has a good plan! In this way, Qin State was not allowed to go east, Qi State was not allowed to become the world's hegemon, and Wei State was not completely declined. Only our Chu State could secretly profit from seizing Qi's Xuzhou! At that time, the position of the world's hegemony would belong to our Chu State!"

Ling said: "Jing Cui, lead 100,000 troops to wait at the border of Qin State, Zi Hua, lead 20,000 troops to wait at the border of Wei State, Zhao Yang, lead 100,000 troops to wait at the border of Qi State!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Duo Jiao said again: "Your Majesty, in order to make Wei State mistakenly believe that our Chu State and Qi State are at war, we should attack Qi State first, but we can only fight a small battle."

"Good! Now all the countries in the world are played by our Chu State! ”
