Chapter 874 What to do if you lose? If you lose, the country will perish! I will personally lead the expedition!
The King of Yan was frightened.
In terms of military strength, the troops that Yan State mobilized through conventional means were more than three times greater than those that Dai State could mobilize with the whole country.
In terms of grain and grass, the grain storage in Yan State's granaries is at least seven times that of Dai State.
The Yan State had the upper hand in both of the two major elements of the war, but King Xi of Yan was still cowed.
Because in every war led by King Yan, Yan's money, food and military strength clearly had the upper hand, but in the end they all ended in a disastrous defeat!
The tragic defeats again and again, and the attempts to cede territory and seek peace again and again have made King Yan lose the ambition of his youth, and he only dared to take advantage of the decline of other countries to launch sneak attacks.
If Zhao Pu's tone was softer, King Yan might still be eager to try on Dai Guo.
But now Zhao Pu's tough attitude, which can even be said to be impatient to start a war, actually makes Yan Wangxi dare not go to war with Dai Guo head-on!
Facing Zhao Pu’s crazy gaze, Yan Wangxi panicked and shouted angrily in an even crazier voice: “Shut up, everyone!”
"The country of Dai is our ally, Dayan."
"How can we, Dayan, betray our alliance and send troops to attack Dai!"
"Anyone who dares to speak out about attacking Dai again will be expelled from the court. !”
King Yan was so angry that he was so angry that Qi Bao and others were confused.
My lord, do you actually care about the covenant?
How strange!
The King of Yan stood up happily, walked down the stairs, walked to Zhao Pu and bowed his hands: "The advice of the ministers is not what I think."
"I, Yan, actually have courtiers. In an attempt to persuade me to send troops to attack Dai, I apologized to the state of Dai on behalf of my ministers. "
This gift is not to Zhao Pu, but to the state of Dai.
So Zhao Pu hurriedly stepped aside and quickly saluted: "The ministers of the State of Yan naturally put the interests of the State of Yan first."
"There will be different voices in the dynasties of all countries. Only in this way can we help a country prosper. My king will not blame him."
After a pause, Zhao Pu's voice became deeper: "It's just that foreign ministers are admonishing King Yan. Understand the current situation clearly. "
"In today's world, Qin has the power to sweep across the Three Kingdoms."
"After destroying Zhao, Lord Qin Chang'an even stated clearly that "Chitian is dead, Xuan." "Tian Dang Li" shows that the Qin State is extremely determined to succeed the Zhou Dynasty. "
"The three kingdoms of Dai, Yan, and Qi have long been in ruins. If one is not careful, the country will be shattered and the country will not survive! ”
"The foreign minister believes that for the present plan, all distracting thoughts should be put aside for the time being."
"The three kingdoms of Dai, Yan, and Qi can only resist Qin's army by going all out, cooperating with all their strength, and having no suspicion." Feng, seek a chance for our three kingdoms!”
“This battle is not only for the country of Dai, but also for the two countries of Yan and Qi, and even more for the great Zhou Dynasty!”
Zhao Pu said these words with great sincerity.
Today's world is in an extremely delicate stage.
Although the Qin State's territory has expanded dramatically, the Qin State has not yet digested the results of the wars it has won over the years. The newly-affiliated people generally have no homeland, and have not experienced the compulsory soldier system of the Qin Dynasty. Many of the newly-affiliated people have mediocre combat qualities.
Gathering all the power of the three kingdoms of Dai, Yan, and Qi, we can still fight Qin head-on. We may even have a chance to find cracks in Qin's bloated body and collapse Qin!
However, this is the last chance for the Three Kingdoms, and it is an opportunity that can only be seized by going all out!
Zhao Pu only hopes that King Yan Xi can understand this truth, put aside his selfishness at this critical moment, and fight with all his strength!
After Wang Xi pondered for a long time, he slowly exhaled a breath: "What Zhao Xingren said makes sense."
"It's just that this matter is serious, and I, Dayan, should discuss it in detail."
"Zhao Xingren can go back to his residence to rest first. After I, Dayan, have discussed it properly, I will call Zhao Xingren into the court to answer the question!"
Zhao Pu's eyes showed deep disappointment, but he had to bow his hands and salute: "Wei!"
Stepping away from Wuyang Palace, Zhao Pu looked up at the sky and sighed with regret: "Yan Kingdom, What a rat!”
“Until I left, no one said they wanted to worship Lord Wu An as prime minister!”
King Xi, Qibao and others of Yan were entangled in the fact that the military strength of Yan State was handed over to Dai State, which meant that Dai State regarded Yan State as a vassal state.
But isn’t there a solution to this problem?
As long as the State of Yan worships Li Mu as its prime minister, the theory of a vassal state can be easily solved!
However, until Zhao Pu left Wuyang Palace, no official came forward to advise him on this policy.
This is enough to see what the kings and ministers of Yan State were thinking in their hearts!
Zhao Pu wanted to laugh.
But thinking about the current situation in the world, Zhao Pu couldn't laugh.
After standing outside Wuyang Palace for a long time, Zhao Pucai finally took a step forward and whispered to his entourage: "Quickly report everything that happened today to the court."
" The king said: Yan can’t be trusted!”
At the same time.
Wuyang Palace.
After watching Zhao Pu leave, King Xi of Yan was silent for a long time, and then he murmured slowly: "Since ancient times, Yan and Zhao have many generous and tragic people."
"Now, I, Yan, after all, What's going on!"
"How come I, the Great Yan, are considered a dishonest and unrighteous person by all the countries in the world!"
The officials of Yan State look at their noses, and their noses look at their hearts. Silence.
Before King Yan Xi ascended the throne, the Yan State was as generous and righteous as the Yan people.
Before Jiang Qu and Prince Dan of Yan died one after another, although the imperial court of the State of Yan had begun to behave like a coward and was not trusted by other countries, it still had a spirit of generosity and righteousness, and there were still a few generous and righteous people. Hold up the scene.
Isn’t it the fundamental problem that Yan State is not trusted by its allies at all now that it is King Xi of Yan himself who raised this question?
In silence, King Yan slowly walked back to the high platform, sat down again, and asked in a deep voice: "What do you think of this battle?"
Qi Pao took a step forward and said quietly. The voice said: "Your Majesty, I believe that we, Dayan, have no choice but to go out to fight this time of coalition forces, and we must go all out!"
"Qin's growth is unstoppable. Only the three kingdoms working together can resist Qin's power!"
"I advise you, this battle does not consider the cost of gain or loss. We will do whatever it takes to defeat Qin's encroaching power. "
"In this way, we, Dayan, can get a chance to turn around!"
When facing Zhao Pu, Qi Bao started fighting one by one.
But that was just for negotiation considerations and to put pressure on Zhao Pu.
Now that only the monarchs and ministers of the Yan Kingdom were left in the Wuyang Palace, Qi Bao did not hesitate to speak frankly about the crisis facing the Yan Kingdom.
There was obvious displeasure in King Yan's voice: "At all costs? Fight with all your strength?"
"Is it because you want to hand over all our Yan soldiers to your lord?" The country is squandering!" Qibao said with a bitter voice: "I think this is the only way for us to face the current predicament!"
"I know this will happen! As a result, many of our Yan soldiers died on the battlefield and our national strength dropped significantly.”
"But as long as Qin's invasion is interrupted, the pressure on the hearts of Han, Chu, Wei, and many survivors of the subjugation can be relieved, and Qin will be unable to restrain domestic unrest."
"Once there is internal turmoil in the Qin State, we, the Great Yan, can take advantage of the situation to invade the territory of the Qin State!"
"No matter how much we, the Great Yan State, pay in this battle, we will be able to get it back from the Qin State by then!"
>
The anger in Yan Wangxi’s voice could not be concealed at all: “If after the war, Dai State takes advantage of the weakness of my country, Dayan, to attack my country of Dayan, how can you, the mounted minister, think that my country, Dayan, can resist the army of Dai country!”
Qi Pao said seriously: "As long as we can interrupt Qin's invasion, the benefits that Dai will gain from continuing to attack Qin will definitely be much higher than those from attacking Yan."
"I ask your Majesty to think deeply!"
"The state of Dai is indeed trembling because the earth dragon has turned over in the territory of Qin, and is worried that Qin will take the initiative to attack the state of Dai."
"But I, the great Yan, and There is an undying blood feud between the Qin States! The Qin State’s initiative to attack our country, Yan, may be as good as the initiative to attack our country, Dai!” King Jian asked Dai to form a coalition. "
"Both Yan and Dai are in urgent need of a coalition, and accepting Dai Wangjia's proposal is what we have to do to form a coalition."
< br>
Qi Bao felt that he had made it very clear.
Even if this battle is just a draw, the pressure within Qin will explode.
Why did Dai attack Yan? Ever since the land of Dukang was ceded to the Qin State, how could the Yan State still have a few taels of meat on its body?
Wouldn’t it be delicious for Dai and Yan to work together to cut off Qin’s flesh?
But Qibao's words sounded full of mockery in King Yan's ears.
It was precisely because King Yan Xi seduced and tacitly allowed Yan Dan to send assassins to assassinate Ying Zheng that Yan became Qin's unrelenting enemy!
It was precisely because of King Yan’s betrayal of the alliance many times that Yan had to take the initiative to give up its leadership in order to form an alliance between Dai and Yan!
It is precisely because of the incompetence of King Yan that the once prosperous Yan Kingdom ended up in the situation it is in today!
Yan Wangxi suddenly picked up the bronze jue on the case table, smashed it hard at Qi Bao, and roared angrily: "Shangqing Bao!"
"Are you a minister or a representative of my great Yan?" A minister of the country?”
"You only think about the possibility that Dai will not take the initiative to attack our country, Yan, if this battle is won or there is a stalemate between the two sides."
"If this battle is defeated, Dai will attack our country, Yan, to make up for its losses. You Why didn’t you say a word!”
Qibao wanted to say that if we lose this battle, it’s nothing!
Yan and Dai both countries were destroyed! It’s just a matter of time!
But before Qi Bao could say this, his head was buzzing.
Just because the heavy copper baron directly hit Qi Bao's forehead!
"Ride on, sir!"
"Send the doctor quickly!"
Qi Bao staggered and almost fell to the ground. He covered his forehead with one hand and waved the other hand to show that he was okay.
But Qi Bao's forehead was already bleeding like a stream, and Qi Bao's heart was bleeding like a fountain!
Qi Bao murmured bitterly: "I didn't try to persuade the king, but I was still disliked by the king after all!"
Qi Bao has been very tolerant in these years.
But Qibao didn’t expect that he was just a normal remonstrance but was still hurt by Yan Wangxi!
"Ai Qing! Ai Qing is fine!"
King Yan quickly ran down the high platform, held up Qi Bao with both hands, his eyes full of regret: "It was my mistake, but it turned out to be I accidentally hurt my beloved!”
"I am wrong!"
Looking at Yan Wangxi who was half-crouching down with sincere eyes, Qi Bao felt a heat in his heart.
But soon, a phantom appeared not far away from Qi Bao's eyes. It was Jiang Qu who had his ribs broken by Yan Wangxi's kick and was lying on the ground wailing!
The king has made so many mistakes.
Qibao’s eyes turned gloomy again, but he could only hold back the discomfort and said with his hands in his hands: “I made a mistake, my Majesty Wanwang, please forgive me!”
King Yan held Qi Bao's arm with both hands and said sincerely, "It's my fault. There's nothing wrong with loving you! There's nothing wrong with loving you!"
"The injury is on my body, and the pain is on me." "My heart!"
"My order!"
"I will give you a hundred pieces of cloth, a thousand stones of grain, five pounds of gold, and thirty dancing girls, and then..."
Listening to Yan Wangxi’s continuous words of comfort and comfort, Qi Bao felt a little sick.
How many times did King Yan Xi apologize to his ministers before he became so familiar with apologizing?
But after Yan Wangxi apologized to his ministers so many times, what improvements did he make?
Qi Pao finally couldn't help but interrupt King Yan Xi's comfort, and said seriously: "Your Majesty! State affairs are important!"
"I am stupid, I only thought of this strategy . ”
“I think you all have some good advice, and I would like to be the king’s pioneer!”
King Yanxi stopped to comfort him when he saw this, and just patted Qibao's arm hard: "I deeply believe that I love you!"
Then King Yanxi looked at the courtiers and asked in a gentle voice: " Dear friends, do you have any good advice?”
It’s a pity that after seeing Qi Pao’s tragic situation, who among the officials of Yan State would dare to give advice again?
Only Ju Guang gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I think there is some truth in what Qi Shang said."
"However, your Majesty's concerns are also justified!"
"It's my old minister's advice. I agree with King Dai's proposal, and the king will personally lead the troops to attack Qin with the army of Dai Guo!"
Hearing Ju Guang's words, King Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but feel proud. He cast an approving look at Ju Guang: "This advice has won my heart!"
Then without giving the ministers a chance to dissuade him, King Yan directly made the decision: "That's how it's settled. Come on!"
"Order!"
"Collect the young and strong, prepare money and food, I, the Great Yan, will fight with all my strength!"
"In this battle, I will personally lead the battle!"
