Chapter 340 340.The Rise of the Qi Kingdom

As for Zhao State, Zhao Yong scolded Qi Xiaobai in his heart for his treachery thousands of times, and Qi Xiaobai agreed with him, but now he has changed his hexagram, will not give him grain and grass, and will jointly attack him Zhao State with Wei State.

Although the princes of the world are not clear about the affairs of Zhao State, in front of a great talent like Su Qin, he can still guess that Qi State and Zhao State have some agreement.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Zhao State After the steel city was breached, the Qi and Zhao borders had not yet sent heavy troops, and the Qi State captured the steel city, which looked like it was captured by a large army, but it was actually more like it was sent by Zhao State.

"This Qi country blatantly violates faith, so how can he communicate with the princes of the world in the future?" Yan Dan looked at Su Qin and asked.

"As long as Chu is an ally of Qi, what if the princes of the world don't have diplomacy with Qi?" Su Qin looked at Yan Dan and said. ,

"This Qi State has blatantly violated the agreement, and this Chu State still dares to form an alliance with him?" Yan Dan looked at Su Qin and asked.

Su Qin just smiled: "How did the current King of Chu Mourning ascend to the throne?" Without the help of his Qi Xiaobai, would he be able to ascend to the throne of Chu? ”

Listening to Su Qin say this, he then looked at Su Qin: "Isn't this Qi country about to ascend to the hegemony?" ”

"After the end of the Wei-Zhao War, the new overlord will be the State of Qi, and King Wei Hui has promised that he is willing to go to the Prime Minister of the State of Qi and recognize Qi Xiaobai as the king!" Su Qin looked at Yan Dan and said.

"The State of Wei recognizes Qi Xiaobai as the king, then the State of Chu will also recognize it, this battle, after that, the State of Zhao will definitely agree to Qi Xiaobai as the king!" Su Qin looked at Yan Dan and said.

"I thought that the hegemony of the Wei State would last for decades, and the shortest would be more than ten years, but I didn't expect that in less than five years, this hegemony would change hands to the Qi State!" Su Qin sighed.

sighed at the rapid rise of the Qi State, at that time, the Qi State was divided into more and swallowed Yan, and he also felt that this was the luck of the Qi State, the strategic mistake of the Yue Gong, the time for the death of the Yan Gong, and there was a disagreement with Concubine Ji, which was the reason why the Qi State could swallow Yan.

But judging from Qi Guo's current performance, he knows that Qi Guo is not just relying on luck, there are many great talents in it, in addition to Guan Zhong, this Qi State must have other great talents.

"The hegemony of the Wei State did not last long, and the hegemony of the Qi Kingdom will not last long!" Yan Dan said on the side.

And Su Qin shook his head: "When Wei ascended to the overlord, the princes did not decline, but the Wei State was too strong, so the Wei State ascended to the overlord, but this Qi State ascended to the hegemon, not only is it strong, but the Wei and Zhao who can stop him are all going downhill, and South Korea will also face the rising Qin State, and the Chu State and the Qi State in the south are blood alliances, and they will not stop the Qi State!" ”

There is a big problem in the Chu State, even if you want to prevent the rise of the Qi State, it is impossible, maybe you will go against the Qi State, and this Chu State will not be as good as before.

"Today, only the strong Qin in the West can have the strength to fight with the Qi State, but one is in the West Pole and the other is in the East Pole, there will be no excessive friction between the two sides, and it can be said that for decades, the Qi State will be the overlord of this empire! Su Qin said to Yan Dan.

"If there is no talented person in the Three Jins, then the Qi State will swallow the Three Jins, replace the Zhou, and become the new emperor!" Su Qin sighed.

He lamented that a few years ago, this Qi country was still a small country in Dongyi, but he didn't expect it to become so powerful in such a short period of time.

The strength of the Qi State is not instantaneous, although Qi Xiaobai is a traverser, but he does not have the ability to take the Qi State to become strong instantly, this is the monarchs of the previous generations of the Qi State have saved a lot of family business, which can allow Qi Xiaobai's generation to play.

In fact, the Song State also had the ability to become a powerful country like the Qi State, but their merchant dictatorship made it only rich, but not powerful.

But the state of Qi did not reach that point, in the case of Qi Xiaobai's reform, the merchants could not reach the point of autocracy, and the scholars were gradually weakened, and Qi Xiaobai gradually grasped the power.

In addition to the money saved by the monarchs of previous dynasties, Qi Xiaobai strengthened the army, and Zhang Tianshang's reforms, so that the treasury of Qi was more and more enriched.

If there is money, then the country will be strong, and the military power will be strong.

Qi is different from Qin, Qi does not pay attention to farming and warfare, he pays attention to recuperation, uses money to strengthen the army, and uses money to stimulate the combat effectiveness of soldiers.

The so-called heavy reward must have brave men, and it is under this military merit system that the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is getting stronger and stronger.

Although the Qin State also paid attention to the military merit system, the Qin State was too poor because of the suppression of business, and when it got money, it couldn't buy any good things, so the reward that the Qin army got was not only the official position, but also the most food.

But it's good that the food is enough, after all, the reform of the Shang monarch has to divide the family, and your grain and grass can't give you adult children.

But you can't eat so much grain and grass, but after you die, this will be returned to the Qin State.

However, if you do not make military achievements, you will not get food, you may starve to death, or if you plough the fields and fail to deliver enough food and grass, you will be punished, and you will sit in ......

Therefore, Qin Min had to work hard to make military merits as a last resort, of course, everything is easy to say with military merits, military merits are high, and there will be everything if the position is high, and there will be beauties and everything, provided that there are enough military merits.

And because of the developed business, the Qi country has a lot of good things, and it will get a lot of money after establishing a military function, and it will be promoted, and its status will be greatly improved, and it can enjoy a lot of life, and future generations will also enjoy it.

Therefore, this generation of Qi people is very desperate for themselves and their families.

Qi Xiaobai is using this generation, and as for the next generation, it will be good to carry out reforms when the time comes.

However, because Qi has a lot of money and national strength, he doesn't have to be anxious about grain and grass like Qin.

And because Qi was rich, his vision became farther and farther away, looking at countries outside the empire.

Su Qin looked at Yan Dan and said, "I estimate that my life will not be long!" ”

"Sir, why do you say such things? Aren't you in good health? After Yan Dan heard Su Qin's words, he was stunned, he was sick because of Su Qin.

"Back then, I assassinated Qi Xiaobai, Qi Xiaobai would not let me go, now that the Qi country is getting stronger and stronger, it's time for Qi Xiaobai to take revenge!" Su Qin looked at Yan Dan and said.

"Does Qi Xiaobai dare to kill Mr.? This is the imperial city, the royal territory, even if Qi Xiaobai becomes the overlord, will he still dare to come to the imperial city? Aren't you afraid that the princes of the world will crusade against it? Yan Dan looked at Su Qin and said.

Su Qin looked at the sky embarrassedly, he believed in the call of the royal family too much, but from the issuance of the edict this time, he knew that the princes of the world did not give him the royal family face at all.

The state of Chu did not attack, and the state of Qi learned of the edict to crusade against the state of Wei, and openly helped the state of Wei, and the same is true of Korea, after learning of the imperial edict, it also openly violated the edict to help the state of Wei.

As for Qin's response to the edict, it was because Qin wanted to recapture the land west of the river.
