A few days later.

Zhao Ju looked at the information in his hand and smiled.

A few days ago, my uncle gave the Chu army 100,000 stone of grain, and promised to provide 100,000 stone of grain for the Chu army every half month.

Unexpectedly, King Han expelled the pro-Qin Han Min yesterday.

At this moment, South Korea's uncle is sitting in Yiyang, and the pro-Qin Han Min has been driven away, so South Korea is completely on the side of Chu.

Now, Zhao Ju is completely relieved.

Another month.

"Ling Yin, the spies have come to report, just now General Qin Wu led 100,000 Qin troops to the Qin camp."

"100,000 reinforcements! In addition, the siege equipment of the Qin army has been built, and it is thought that the Qin army will attack the city in a few days. Yin Jun, plus scouts, closely monitored the Qin army. ”

"No."

Three days later.

Not long after Zhao Ju got up, Yin Jun hurriedly walked to his side and reported: "Ling Yin, after three days of rest, the Qin army has just sent out troops, and a partial division of 100,000 people is coming towards our army, and its main force is heading towards Yiyang. ”

Zhao Ju nodded: "Okay, let's explore again." ”

"No."

"Ling Yin, the Qin army has begun to attack the city."

"Revisit."

"Ling Yin, the Qin army is attacking the city very urgently."

"Probe."

"Ling Yin, Uncle sent a messenger."

"Got it..."

Before you know it, another month has passed, and the Qin and Han armies have been fighting fiercely in Yiyang for a month, while the Chu army has been watching the battle in the camp for a month.

On this day, South Korean grain arrived in Chuying again.

At this time, Zhao Ju was holding a volume of "I Ching" to watch, and suddenly heard the movement in the camp, and couldn't help frowning, then put down the book and asked out loudly: "Why is there a noise outside?" ”

When Zhuang Ji, who was guarding outside, heard this, he immediately responded: "Please order Yin later, let people check it out." ”

Soon, Zhuang Ji walked into Zhao Ju's camp and arched his hand: "Ling Yin, just now Uncle sent someone to send food, because this time Uncle also sent two hundred pigs, one hundred sheep, and ten cows, so it caused some commotion. ”

"Hmm!" As soon as Zhao Ju heard that his uncle had sent a large number of extra livestock to the Chu army this time, he immediately knew that his uncle was urging him to send troops.

Thinking about it, Zhao Ju asked, "How is the battle situation in Yiyang now?" ”

"Back to Ling Yin, there is still a fierce battle, Qin and Han do not give in to each other, and the war has fallen into a stalemate."

"How long have they been fighting?"

"It's been more than a month."

Zhao Ju nodded, and then touched his slender Hu and continued: "For more than a month, the war is still scorching, and the Qin army has lost its sharpness. However, our army has been watching for more than a month, and if we continue to wait and see, we will eat South Korean food, and we will not feel very down-to-earth.

The order went down, killed pigs and sheep, and the whole army had two full meals, and sent troops to harass the Qin army tomorrow. ”

"No."

Next.

After the Chu army had a full meal, the army was divided into three, Zhao Ju personally led the army to the Qin army that was monitoring the Chu army, and Yin Jun Zhuang Ji led one part of each to the south and north of the city.

At this time, Feng Xi on the opposite side saw Zhaoju coming in person, and immediately ordered the 100,000 troops under his command to wait for him, and then saw that two parts of the Chu army were heading towards Yiyang.

Seeing this, Feng Xi looked at Zhao Ju not far ahead, and then looked at the Chu army that was going away, although he had the intention to intercept the Chu army, but he was worried that this was Zhao Ju's conspiracy, and he was even more worried that he would not be Zhao Ju's opponent after he also divided his troops.

So, after thinking about it, he ordered: "Order, put up a defensive formation, and be on guard." ”

"Summon, go and report to the prime minister quickly, and say that the Chu army left the camp and went to Yiyang."

On the other side, Gan Mao was watching the Qin army attack the city in the battle, and suddenly, there was a cheer from Yiyang City.

Gan Mao was stunned for a moment, and when he hesitated, a scout walked quickly to Gan Mao's side: "Prime Minister, General Feng Xi is coming to report that the Chu army is out of the camp, and he is confronting Chu Xiangzhaoju." However, there were two Chu armies coming to Yiyang. ”

Before Gan Mao could react, another scout came to report: "Prime Minister, just now the Chu general Zhuang Ji raided the rear of my southern siege army, and General Wei Ran saw that the Chu army was attacking very urgently, and was forced to slow down the attack on Yiyang. ”

When Gan Mao heard this, his spirit suddenly lifted: "Pass the order, let General Wei entangle the Chu army." ”

"Pass the order, let General Feng divide a section to cut off the return route of the Chu army."

"Order, transfer 50,000 troops from the rear of our army to encircle and suppress the Chu army."

"No."

Half an hour later, just as Gan Mao was anxiously waiting for news, a scout hurried over: "Prime Minister, General Wei Ran has sent news that after the Chu people attacked for a while, they saw that our army stopped attacking the city and entangled with it with all their might, so they retreated ahead of schedule. ”

“···”

"Prime Minister, General Wu from the north came to report that he was attacked by the Chu General Yin Jun's department, and our department was prepared and successfully intercepted the Chu army."

“···”

"Prime Minister, Chu will kill Zhuang Ji to the north, our department is fighting with the Chu people with all its might, and the siege is forced to be suspended."

"Prime Minister, General Wu has come to report, after our army has fought hard, the Chu people are defeated and have retreated."

"Defeat..." The corners of Gan Mao's mouth twitched, and then he saw that the Qin army besieging the city was no longer able to attack the city wall at this moment, so he said coldly: "Order, Mingjin collects the troops and rests for a day." ”

Another three months passed.

Xianyang.

King Qin looked at Gongzi Ji with a sad face and said, "Three months have passed, and the war in Yiyang has not made any progress because of the harassment of the Chu people.

On Zhao Wei's side, Zhao and the court were disturbed and couldn't make up their minds for a long time, and Wei agreed to attack Han, but repeatedly shirked the time to send troops, and took the benefits of the widow but didn't do anything, which is really hateful. ”

When Gongzi Ji heard this, he saw that Qin Wangdang was very angry, and immediately arched his hand and said: "Great King, my younger brother is willing to lobby Wei." ”

Hearing this, Qin Wang Dang glanced at Gongziji, shook his head and said: "Forget it, Wei is reluctant to send troops, that is because Qi is a hindrance, and Wei is biased towards Qi, which is not something that can be shaken by words." ”

"This..." Gongziji bowed his head and was silent.

At this time, Qin Wangdang sighed for a while, and then asked: "Brother Xian, are you too anxious to be a brother, Zhao and Wei are originally biased towards Qi and have estranged relations with my Qin State. This time, the widow used Korea as bait in an attempt to set aside the Qi State, and then draw Zhao and Wei to the side of the Qin State in one fell swoop.

As a result, Qi gave the widow a slap in the face, and in March, the widow not only did not get the support of Zhao and Wei, but also failed to win South Korea. ”

When Gongzi Ji heard this, he immediately said with relief: "King, this is the backsprint of the Wei State..."

"Brother Xian doesn't have to comfort his brother, the prime minister is right, things have to come step by step, too anxious, ask for too much, and in the end you will get nothing. It's a pity that the widow didn't listen to it at that time, so it got to this point. ”

Qin Wangdang said, a smile appeared on his face again: "Although the reality is very helpless, but fortunately, it is not too late to regret it now, the widow thought twice, and decided to follow the advice of the prime minister, first take Korea, and then win over the Zhao State, and then fight with the Qi State after defeating the Chu State." ”

Gongzi Ji arched his hand and praised: "The king is wise." ”

Qin Wang Dang smiled and said: "Brother Xian, the affairs of Zhao State are easy to handle, and the widow has decided to appoint Lou Xuan as the Prime Minister of Zuo, so as to win over Zhao Guo."

On the Korean side, the widow is a little embarrassed, and now the prime minister has been fighting for a long time without results, and Zhao and Wei have not moved as scheduled.

Therefore, in order to allow Wei to send troops, and even to allow Qi to send troops, the widow intends to submit to Qi, recognize the status of the king of Qi as the leader of the alliance, and pay some price for Qi to cede Korea to me Qin. ”

As he spoke, King Qin paused, then looked at Gongzi Ji and said, "Brother Xian, I know how the widow intends to persuade King Qi." ”

Gongzi Ji looked at Qin Wangdang and shook his head and said, "Brother is stupid! ”

"The widow plans to say to the king of Qi that as long as the state of Qi can make Korea surrender to the widow this time, then next time, when the state of Qi attacks the state of Chu, the widow will lead the Qin-Han coalition army as the wing of the king of Qi, and wait for the king of Qi to dispatch."

Gongzi Ji hesitated and said, "King, I'm afraid King Qi may not believe it!" ”

"Yes, the question now is, how to make King Qi believe in the widow." Qin Wangdang nodded, then looked at Gongzi Ji with expectant eyes and said, "I don't know what the virtuous brother has to say!" ”

"This..." Childe Ji was silent.
