When I was in Qin Dynasty, I lost contact with the wave

Chapter 588 Wang Jian who "repays kindness with hatred"
Just when Zhang Ji was thinking about how to continue attacking Nu Ying after returning home, Wang Jian caught a glimpse of Zhang Ji whose eyes were still closed and suggested to Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty, the Chu State will definitely send troops to invade north again this time. I think that we can choose another person to form an army and serve as the commander of the army to fight against the Chu army."

Wang Jian's suggestion made Ying Zheng's eyes light up.

It is inevitable for the Chu army to send troops.

In the eleventh year of the Qin Dynasty, that is, after the autumn harvest last year, Wei State actually sent troops to Qi State!

The Qi State had no military preparations and had not been in battle for many years. Prime Minister Hou Sheng personally led the troops to confront the Wei State at the border.

When the drums of the advance sounded, the Qi army was almost defeated at the first touch. The Wei State sent troops to attack Qi one after another, and captured thirteen cities of Qi State one after another.

At Hou Sheng's suggestion, King Jian of Qi asked Qin for help in exchange for a large amount of money, silk, grain and grass.

As the son-in-law of King Jian of Qi, Qin and Qi were also allies by marriage. Ying Zheng originally planned to send troops to attack Wei on the grounds of rescuing Qi. What's more, King Jian of Qi sent envoys to Qin to ask for help with letters of credence and promised money and silk. , grain and grass, even Zuo Prime Minister Wei Zhuang, who believed that Qin should continue to recuperate and invest resources in Zhao and Dai for development, had no reason to object anymore.

However, the secret preparations for dispatching troops seemed to have been noticed by Chu State. Chu General Xiang Yan led an army of 200,000 and stationed in Chen County, the old capital of Chu State. There are many people who can go north to aid Wei at any time or go west to regain the homeland of Yan Ying. Posture.

Therefore, Wei Liao, who was promoted to a state captain, made a suggestion: "Rather than risking a bloody battle with the Chu and Wei armies by going eastward, it is better to order General Li Xin, who is stationed in Zhao, to lead his army southward."

In order to avoid further expansion of the scale of the war, Qin State, as the prime ministers of the three kingdoms, Wei Zhuang, Anlingjun, and Hou Sheng met in Diqiu City, the old capital of Wei State, now renamed Puyang, and signed a peace treaty.

The State of Qin returned the three cities of Anyang, Huangcheng, and Fangling south of the Zhang River to the State of Wei. The State of Wei returned to the State of Qi the four cities that had been recaptured by Qi State, and the population list of the cities north of the Zhang River and the All prefecture and county records were handed over to Qin, while Qi handed over the population lists and prefecture and county records of the nine cities occupied by Wei.

Therefore, guarding against Chu's army is an important part of testing the commander's ability in conquering Wei.

Wei withdrew its troops in time, and the Qi army recovered four cities, but failed to capture the Wei army. When Li Xin saw that the main force of Wei had returned, he stopped going south.

Ying Zheng adopted Wei Liao's suggestion, and Li Xin led an army of 100,000 people southward from Yecheng. Like a raging fire, he conquered a total of 11 cities including Zhiyang, Zaiyang, Hejian, Bei'an, and Yangjin in one fell swoop. The basin north of Zhanghe River.

After the peace talks between the three kingdoms, the Chu State also immediately withdrew its troops. The Wei State presented the Chu State with treasures, silk, food, gold, jade and jewels as a thank you. They also signed an alliance to become allies, agreeing to support each other offensively and defensively and never break the alliance.

However, although Wei State received the assistance and guarantee of Chu State, a powerful ally, it also turned against Qi State.

Although the people of Qi are now addicted to the prosperous and comfortable life and are unwilling to participate in the war, this does not mean that Qi does not have visionary people who are happy to see Qin attack another country again and further widen the gap in strength with Qi.

But with the hatred of Wei taking the initiative to invade Qi, and Qin being an ally of Qi sending troops to aid Qi, Qi's anti-Qin faction could not find a suitable name to help Wei. Without the restriction of Qi State, Qin State can not only go east from the mainland, but also go south from Handan County and north from Yingchuan County. It was originally a three-sided attack, but Qin State can safely advance westward from Dongjun and attack The state of Wei was attacked from all sides.

Wang Jian's proposal made Ying Zheng's eyes light up.

Yes, who said that the two battlefields must be drawn together so that the army can be commanded by one person?
It is entirely possible for one person to lead the army to fight against the Chu army, and the other to attack Wei with all his strength. When Wei is destroyed, Chu will naturally have to retreat to its territory.

Zhang Ji, who was originally immersed in thinking about academic issues related to human reproduction, looked at Wang Jian blankly. Seeing Wang Jian turning his back to Ying Zheng and clasping his fists to express his gratitude, as well as the smile on his lips, Zhang Ji for a moment really wanted to We need to discuss academic issues related to human reproduction with Wang Jian’s female ancestors!

Wang Jian naturally didn't know Zhang Ji's win-win plan. He just didn't want Zhang Ji, a junior, to suffer too much, so he was ready to give up the military glory on the southern front. He also planned to focus all his energy on Wei.

However, Zhang Ji just wanted to stay at home with his beautiful wife and concubine in his arms and strive to have another child, and did not want these military achievements at all.

Seeing the sudden change in Zhang Ji's expression, Ying Zheng was also happy to see Zhang Ji defeated. Moreover, Zhang Ji's pleasure-seeking behavior made him quite displeased, so naturally he wanted to beat Zhang Ji hard.

"What the general said is absolutely true, then Lord Luonan will be the commander-in-chief to resist the Chu army."

Ying Zheng waved his sleeves and saw that Zhang Ji wanted to say something, but he didn't intend to give him a chance.

Aren't you unwilling to speak?

That person won't let you have the chance to speak!

Ying Zheng directly thrust another piece of tiger talisman into Zhang Ji's hand, and immediately issued an eviction order: "I have made up my mind, there is no need to discuss this matter anymore, Lord Luonan, please step aside!"

Zhang Ji, who was driven out of Zhangtai Palace, looked at the closed palace door, glanced at the black tiger charm in his hand that symbolized military power, and took a deep breath.

"Repay kindness with evil, Wang Jian, I will become your mother's wife!"

Zhang Ji turned around and yelled, but Wang Jian had long disappeared.

Obviously, Wang Jian, who was quite politically minded, also noticed Zhang Ji's displeasure and resentment on his face. He had already mounted a fast horse and fled away as soon as he left the palace.
