Although Sun Ba has made several immortal military exploits, according to the rules of the Qi State, it is still difficult to be named a general.

After all, in the great merit, it is impossible for a person to be directly crowned as a general from a recruit, of course, the Qi State has a provision for exceptional promotion, but in the entire Qi State, only Qi Xiaobai has power.

Therefore, Sun Ba wanted to make a few immortal military exploits and get Qi Xiaobai's commendation, so that after he returned from studying in the Jixia School Palace, he could be directly crowned a general.

Of course, Sun Ba wants to be a general, but it is obviously impossible to be crowned a general directly, after all, the number of generals is limited, or the number of generals is limited.

It's just that the number of generals is small, and it is full every year, while the number of lieutenant generals and major generals is limited, but there are more, and there is a gap in rank between the lieutenant generals and major generals of the Central Committee of Qi State and the lieutenant generals and major generals of the garrison corps.

Because lieutenant generals, major generals, every year need achievements to stabilize their status, so every year people fall from the position of major general, lieutenant general, this is also to let more people have hard work.

If the position is fixed, then the person may lack fighting spirit, which is not conducive to the development of the army.

Sun Wu looked at this Sun family general and said: "This is also Sun Ba's choice, we should support him, not to mention that Sun Ba has ten thousand enemies, with those rats in Handan, there is no way to help Sun Ba!" ”

"It's just that I'm afraid in case!" This Sun family general still said worriedly.

"Don't worry too much, if Sun Ba wants to become a general, he also needs to stand alone!" Sun Wu looked at this Sun family general and said.

"And I believe that in Handan, Zhao Guo doesn't dare to make any moves, unless they want to destroy the country!" Sun Wu's eyes showed a hint of coldness.

Because Zou Ji encountered two assassins in a row in Zhao State, the Tiger Commander of the Twelve Secret Guards was seriously injured, so for Zou Ji's safety, in the Zhao Legion, each branch sent three peerless masters and three hundred elites to protect Zou Ji.

Qi country, Yingqiu.

Qi Xiaobai looked at the ministers of the cabinet and said, "Everyone, what do you think about this Zhao State? My messenger, in Handan, was attacked twice, and both were organized attacks! ”

Tian Ji looked at Qi Xiaobai and said: "This definitely can't be done by the Zhao clan, Zhao Guo also wants to talk to us now, they definitely won't assassinate Zou Ji!" ”

"Zou Ji is dead, this peace talk must not be talked about!" Tian Ji looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

Qi Xiaobai was silent for a while, then looked at the cabinet ministers and said, "Everyone, do you think this is a way for Zhao Guo to talk to us about conditions?" ”

"Our messenger died, and they also saw that we wanted to negotiate peace, so they used it to coerce, and we ......"

"Your Majesty is too worried!" Before Qi Xiaobai's words were finished, Guan Zhong said on the side: "Our envoy is dead, this is related to the face of our Qi country, this Zhao country is not unaware, we will definitely send troops to attack Zhao!" Guan Zhong looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

Qi Xiaobai had another idea in his heart, he felt that the Zhao State might not think that the Qi State would launch a war to destroy Zhao that might cause a conspiracy for one person.

Many times, it is often possible to sacrifice a person for the sake of the overall situation, and this kind of sacrifice is very common in the confrontation of princes for hegemony.

Qi Xiaobai read a record in the library of Qi State that a minister willingly committed suicide in order to trigger a war to destroy the country, which attracted the reason for his country to send troops.

There have also been times when the minister willingly committed suicide for the sake of the overall situation, only hoping to turn the conflict into a jade brocade!

In Qi Xiaobai's heart, if Zou Ji really died, and it was not cost-effective to destroy Zhao, Qi Xiaobai would not plan to start this war, but the cabinet ministers did not think it, they thought that it was about the face of the empire.

The envoy of your own family was assassinated, and you still don't send troops, how does this make the princes of the world think of you? Don't you think you're a soft persimmon?

Qi Xiaobai did not discuss this issue with the ministers, Qi Xiaobai is now a pragmatist, and sometimes face is not very important, but what is important is interests.

Everything is based on interests, how many strong, powerful, and potentially dominant princes have appeared in this world, and they all ended up losing because of one face.

Qi Xiaobai was unwilling to follow in the footsteps of these princes.

Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone and said: "Zou Ji's safety must be protected, and let Zou Ji conclude an alliance quickly, if Zhao Guo keeps delaying, we can use some coercive means!" ”

Qi Xiaobai didn't know that it was Zou Ji who was delaying the conclusion of the alliance, and Zou Ji had been delaying not signing the alliance for the benefit of the Qi country.

Compared with Qi State, Zhao State wants to conclude an alliance as soon as possible, send away the Qi army, and solve this unstable factor, and when this factor is gone, Zhao State can develop more stably and with peace of mind.

The army of Qi is stationed here, how can Zhao develop steadily?

The current Zhao State urgently needs a truce and restores its national strength, and this war can be said to have made Zhao State from a first-class peak country to a third-rate country.

The three major treasuries, the loss of two treasury, the loss of half of the territory, the loss of a lot of population, the loss of troops, this is not a year, two years to recover.

Before the civil war of Zhao, Zhao was the third power based on the world, the original Korea had collapsed, although Wei won Korea, but it was in a state of recovery, for a while, it could not return to its peak state.

And the Zhao State, there is the Zhao master father system, the two Yuan Kingdom, although there is no empire, but there is the foundation of the emperor, and the master father is basically the same title as the emperor.

There are many elites in the Zhao State, with the most powerful light cavalry corps in the world, and the standing army of the entire Zhao State reaches as many as 800,000, plus the noble legion can reach one million.

The treasury is very full, the grain and grass are very sufficient, whether it is the Qi State or the Qin State, if you want to use a knife against the Zhao State, you have to weigh it, how much will the national strength be lost if this hits the Zhao State? Can this gnaw this hard bone?

The people of Zhao are bloody, they do not admit defeat, they are very tough, which is known to the princes of the world.

But it is such a powerful kingdom, but it suddenly broke out in civil strife, giving the Qi State a surprise, of course, there is also the participation of the Qin State, if the Qin State does not give Zhao He, Feiyi, and Zhao Cheng the three of them, full of confidence, how dare they rebel?

The initial stage of their rebellion was very smooth, and the Qin state wanted to support a strong pro-Qin Zhao state as a way to counter the Qi state's strategy.

Before the rebellion, Zhao was biased towards Qi and had an alliance with Qi, but after the rebellion, Zhao was biased towards Qin, if Zhao could rebel in the form of crushing and unify Zhao, Zhao could become a powerful ally of Qin, and it would indeed put pressure on Qi.
