Chapter 331 331

Li Kui looked at Qi Xiaobai and asked, "What do you Qi Guo want?" ”

"King Xiang is just an empty name, I'm not interested in this kind of empty thing, I hope that your Wei State will give us three thousand catties of salt and a year's grain harvest from your Wei State!" Qi Xiaobai looked at Li Kui and said.

Qi Xiaobai wants to take back all the money he gave to Zhao State from Wei State, for Wei State, three thousand catties of salt is not a problem, after all, he has a huge salt lake mine, and as for a year's harvest, there is no problem for Wei State.

Wei is the overlord of the Central Plains, and its geographical location is in the most advantageous position in the Central Plains, and its land is also the most fertile place in the empire, basically harvesting a lot of grain and grass every year.

Because of the geographical location of the land, there are few natural disasters or even no natural disasters in the location, so every year Wei can get a very good grain harvest.

"Why don't you grab it?" Li Kui said angrily when he heard it.

Although these things were not much for the Wei State, the materials that Qi Xiaobai asked for were a very large amount.

"This time, we helped you Wei State solve Zhao State, is it really too much to ask you for this little material?" Qi Xiaobai looked at Li Kui and asked.

Qi Xiaobai asked himself if he didn't want much, although the war between Wei and Zhao made Wei's national strength decline significantly, but if Qi didn't participate in it, he Wei was fighting, it was possible to give up in a war, and it would be difficult to rise.

Once this war is lost, even if there is no country, it is impossible for Zhao and Qin to watch Wei rise again, although Zhao is basically crippled in this battle, but Qin is still there.

Qin's Shangjun reform made Qin a war-wage machine, and it recovered very quickly, and of course, when it recovered, Qin was going to start a war.

Therefore, the Wei State is crippled, and the Qin State will definitely not let go of this opportunity, and will encroach on the Wei State step by step.

And the Wei State blocked the gate of the Chu State to enter the Central Plains, and the Wei State was crippled, and it was impossible to stop the Qin State, let alone the Chu State, which was known as the crown of the world.

"How much is 3,000 catties of salt worth? And one year's grain and grass in my Wei State is equivalent to three years of grain and grass in Qin State! Li Kui looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

"Then there is no way, who let you not break through Handan City, otherwise I will help you destroy Zhao State, and I will get Song Land!" Qi Xiaobai looked at Li Kui and said.

Qi Xiaobai didn't listen to this, if you want to blame, blame you for being too uncompetitive and didn't break through Handan City.

Li Kui looked at Qi Xiaobai, he didn't dare to make a decision on his own, after all, Qi Xiaobai asked for too many things, but now that time was pressing, he didn't give him a chance to think about it at all.

If Qi Xiaobai is not promised, then the Wei army will have to continue to consume with the Zhao State in Handan, and by that time the Qin State will reach Daliang, and the King of Wei will be in danger.

Li Kui didn't know about South Korea's support for the 500,000-strong army, and if he knew, he wouldn't be so nervous.

Wei is fighting on two fronts, and the siege of Handan City still has to continue to deliver grain and grass to the main army, otherwise it will be abandoned and can only withdraw the army.

If Handan City cannot be breached, then the Wei army will basically be in a stalemate with Zhao, and whoever has problems in the rear will be defeated at that time.

Previously, Wei concluded that Zhao did not have so much grain and grass, but he did not expect that Zhao Guo's grain and grass would be consumed for him for two years.

Of course, the Wei State can still afford to consume it, but the rear is already on fire, once the Qin army breaks through the Liang, what is the point of breaking through Handan?

And now that the emperor has issued an edict, although King Wei Hui is not worried about the emperor's army, he is worried that the princes of the world will respond to the emperor's call.

Once the state of Chu joins this war, then he and the state of Wei will be defeated, but fortunately, the state of Chu has not moved.

Of course, the main reason for this is that Wei sent Chu, and he wanted to stabilize Chu, and once Chu joined the war, then everything was over.

The current Wei State needs a big victory in the war with the Qin State, and only by winning the Qin State can the rear of the Wei State be stabilized, continue to attack Handan, and break the agreement between the Zhao State and the Wei State.

The current Wei State no longer wants to destroy the Zhao State, but only wants to sign an agreement with the Zhao State to maximize the benefits, of course, once the Handan is broken and the Zhao army is defeated, the Zhao State will definitely sign an agreement.

This is mainly because Handan City is the main force of all Zhao State, once the main force collapses, then Zhao State will not be able to fight even if it has grain and grass.

When Zhao signed an agreement, then Wei would go to clean up Qin, as long as the main force of Wei could come back, King Wei Hui believed that this Qin State would not be able to resist at all.

Of course, all this is based on the fact that King Wei Hui defeated the Qin army led by Bai Qi and stabilized the rear, so that he could concentrate all his forces to storm Handan City.

The rear is unstable, and the army at the front will not be stable.

The army is unstable, how to win the war? How to win the war?

"Can't the request be lowered?" Li Kui looked at Qi Xiaobai and asked.

Qi Xiaobai waved his hand: "We are at a loss, you must know that we are facing the Hufu cavalry of the Zhao State, the strongest light cavalry in the empire!" ”

The Northern Hebei Army is a heavy cavalry, and the Hufu cavalry is a light cavalry, so it can be called the first light cavalry in the empire.

"My Qi country is facing a lot of pressure, not to mention, if there is no interest, why should my Qi country send troops?" Qi Xiaobai looked at Li Kui and said.

Li Kui was silent, although Qi Xiaobai's words are not good, but they are very real, there is no benefit, why do people help you?

There is no brotherly relationship between countries, if there is a brotherly relationship, Wei will not start a war against Zhao, Wei and Zhao can be said to be born from the same root.

Basically, it can be said that they are brothers, or the kind of pro-brothers, after all, they are separated from a country.

Both are a mother country, so it can be said that they are brothers' countries.

But for the sake of its own hegemony and interests, didn't Wei still abandon its brotherly feelings and launch a war against Zhao?

Not to mention the Qi State, which has no feelings for the Wei State, it is actually normal for the Qi State to ask for benefits.

"What's more, your lake salt mine, three thousand catties of salt is not much, as for a year's harvest, how much grain does your Wei country have, you should know, right? What I want from the Qi State can't hurt the foundation of your Wei State at all! Qi Xiaobai said to Li Kui.

Although Qi Xiaobai asked for a lot of things, these things could not shake the foundation of the Wei State at all.

Of course, if Qi Xiaobai can ask for these things, then Qi Xiaobai's funding for Zhao Guo will be replenished.

"Now that you Wei State is in a moment of national crisis, what are you sacrificing something foreign?" Qi Xiaobai looked at Li Kui and said.

Li Kui was silent for a while, looked at Qi Xiaobai and said: "I have to write a letter to report to King Wei, if King Wei agrees, we will promise you, after all, you ask for too many things, I can't call the shots alone!" ”
