810. Wei Dexian's explanation
Therefore, Qi Xiaobai thought that it was not impossible for Qin and Zhao to unite, after all, they had a common enemy.
"Your Majesty, the alliance between the Qin State and the Zhao State is what their top leaders think, but they don't think so at the bottom!"
"At that time, Zhao had just established the country, the Sanjin had just completed the separation, the Wei State was busy stabilizing the Central Plains, and South Korea was facing the threat of Zheng State, and the Zhao State wanted to expand its territory, at that time there was a strong Yan in the east, and they could only choose to expand to the west, and the Qin State in the west was also expanding."
"The two sides broke out a war for fifty years, and the feud arose because of this, and it has been fought for fifty years without interruption, and Zhao Guoguo is only a hundred years, and for fifty years, he has been at war with Qin, it can be said that Qin, Zhao's generation, basically died in the battle of Qin and Zhao."
The feud also arose because of this, and later, Wei united with the Three Jin Dynasty and launched the Three Jin Alliance, and the Qin State was not an opponent, so it could only abandon the northwest region and turn to defense with the help of natural dangers.
And Wei did not want to see Zhao strong, and did not support Zhao to attack Qin, but to maintain the stability of the Three Jins, look at the world, and join hands to dominate the world in the name of the Three Jins.
At that time, the state of Chu was still in a smooth transition, the recovery period, and at that time, the three Jin Dynasty were united, and no one in the world dared to confront it.
At that time, the Sanjin wanted to expand, but the expansion in three directions, because the expansion was not agreed, so the Sanjin could only stick to the homeland and dominate, and that short period of time, because the combined power of the Sanjin was too strong, the princes did not dare to cause trouble.
And because the Sanjin Dynasty is not a community, there is no expansion, and this period of time is called the most peaceful time for the empire to fight for hegemony.
Also known as the Three Jin Dynasty hegemony, period.
The Qin state did not dare to compete with it, discarding the northwest region and expanding to the south instead, and after several generations, the Qin state occupied the Bashu region, bordering the Chu state.
Fifty years of war have made Qin and Zhao a feud, it can be said that Zhao and every family in Qin may have a blood feud with each other.
After all, their father, their grandfather, may have died at the hands of the other party, when the Fifty Years' War, the population loss of the Zhao State was very serious, and the children of the ten years old at that time were all dragged into the battlefield.
The Qin State was also tragic, because the folk customs of both sides were fighting and very strong, so they did not think of retreating, which was also the reason for the Fifty Years' War.
After all, the war has been fought for so long, no one is willing to make concessions, and Zhao Guo has only ended this war because of the support of his old friends.
Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and really didn't know this history, so he explained to Qi Xiaobai this blood feud between Qin and Zhao.
After listening to Wei Dexian's explanation, Qi Xiaobai nodded flatly, he really didn't know about this matter, this kind of hatred is indeed not something that can be resolved.
Even if there is no hatred at the top of both sides, only interests, the civilians below do not think so.
Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said, "Your Majesty also has a battle called 'Qin Zhao Fighting Lou Annoyance!'" ’”
"What does this campaign say?" Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian and asked.
Since Wei Dexian said it, Qi Xiaobai knew that this must have some meaning, Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said: "Back then, there was a Lou Fu country in the north of Qin and Zhao countries, and the alliance between the two sides launched an attack on Lou Fu. ”
"However, what I didn't expect was that after the two armies of Qin and Zhao met, there was a war, and they were annoyed together, and finally turned into a bloody battle between Qin and Zhao!" Wei Dexian said to Qi Xiaobai. Love me
Qi Xiaobai was stunned: "There is still this kind of thing?" ”
"At the beginning, Qin and Zhao each sent 200,000 troops to meet at Baiwei Mountain, but after the two sides met, a bloody battle broke out, and this war was called the Battle of Baiwei Mountain."
"The generals of both sides couldn't stop the war in the end, so they could only command the battle with each other, and finally they were attacked by Lou Fu and annihilated the main forces of both sides!"
"Since this incident, the Qin State and the Zhao State have not been separately united, and they are generally alliances, and several countries will be alliances!" Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.
"Your Majesty, when I say this, you should be able to understand why it is impossible for Zhao and Qin to form an alliance, right?" Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.
Qi Xiaobai nodded, and at this time Qi Xiaobai already understood.
"Qin and Zhao will only be enemies, definitely not allies, Your Majesty can rest assured, so Zhao dares to betray us, we only need to carry out heavy defense in Yandi, and heavy defense in Luoyang and Jixi County!"
"There will always be friction between Qin and Zhao, and Wei will inevitably expect friction between Qin and Zhao!" Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.
"So Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about the affairs of Zhao State!" Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.
In fact, if there was no war to attack Korea, Qi would still send troops to help Zhao Yong, but after launching the war of war against Korea, Qi did not get any benefits, but let Wei have a tendency to revivenation.
If Wei is not suppressed at this time, but instead participates in the civil war of Zhao, Wei is likely to take the opportunity to expand.
After all, although the State of Qi is strong and big, its energy is limited, and the reason why Wei Dexian persuaded Qi Xiaobai to give up the State of Zhao is that in addition to the fact that the State of Zhao and the State of Qin are feuding, the alliance cannot last too long, and there is another point that the State of Qi needs to pay attention to the State of Wei and prevent the State of Wei from doing things during this time.
After Wei obtained Pingyang County, it was impossible to launch a large-scale war, but small-scale wars were still possible, so Qi must suppress Wei so that it could not take advantage of this strong morale and revive quickly.
In fact, Wei Dexian told Qi Xiaobai that before Wei Dexian came, Zou Ji, Tian Ji, and Guan Zhong had looked for him separately before Wei Dexian came.
Wei Dexian's analysis just now actually has the analysis of several Qi ministers.
Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian: "You can analyze it so thoroughly, I think someone must have analyzed it for you, right?" ”
Wei Dexian smiled: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from Your Majesty!" ”
"Before the minister met His Majesty, Guan Zhong, Zou Ji, and Tian Ji of the cabinet all came to my minister and analyzed the situation for the minister!"
"After they knew that after the civil strife in Zhao, they had a private dispute about whether to help Zhao Yong or not, and later they found out that helping Zhao State, Qi State is still unprofitable, Qin State and Zhao State are feuds, even if Qin and Zhao have a short alliance, it can't last too long, and finally they agreed not to help Zhao Yong!"
"Whether Zhao Yong can survive or not depends on his own fate, the three ministers are ready to focus on the Wei State!"
"They think that the rise of Wei is more important, and the three ministers think that Qi must use all means to extinguish the signs of the rise of Wei!" Wei Dexian looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.
Qi Xiaopi shook his head and said, "These three old guys, don't tell me yourself, let you convey it to me!" ”
