Sinzheng, South Korea.

"Han Chen's raid on Fang Cheng failed!"

"Han Chen has been attacking Fang City for two days."

"The commander of Hanbei County of Chu State led reinforcements to Fangcheng..."

King Han looked at the battle report in his hand, his heart was furious, and he immediately threw the battle report from Han Chen to the ground.

"Damn, Han Chen is incompetent, Han Chen is a widow, a widow...

In order to break through Fangcheng, our Qin, Wei and Han kingdoms have made all kinds of preparations, and even the Qin-Han coalition army has attacked Luyang at all costs, in order to achieve the purpose of defrauding Chu and transferring the first-line defenders of Fangcheng.

Results··· The purpose of the deception was achieved, but Han Chen's surprise attack on Fang City failed, and a battle that should have ended quickly turned into a protracted battle.

Han Chen was incompetent, alas, the widow should have let the Storm Kite go to Fang City, he shouldn't have listened to Han Chen's slander and handed over the opportunity to raid Fang City to Han Chen, he really regretted not doing it at the beginning. ”

While speaking, King Han picked up the letter from King Wei of Qin on the other side of the case, and opened it to take a look, only to see that King Qin and King Wei were all questioning the reason for his failure to raid Fangcheng, and the words in the letter were more aggressive.

Seeing this, a wave of anger instantly rose from King Han's heart, and his heart was filled with extreme dissatisfaction with Han Chen.

The Han army's raid on Fangcheng was an opportunity he had finally won from King Wei, an opportunity to obtain more results after the war, but it was wasted by Han Chen.

If Han Chen could not capture the city before the Wei army reinforced, then after the war, the results obtained by Korea would be greatly reduced.

Thinking about it, a trace of anger flashed in King Han's eyes again, and then he commanded loudly: "Send an edict to Xiangguo Han Chen, let him strengthen the offensive of the team Fang City, and be sure to give the widow to capture the city before the Wei army arrives."

Otherwise, he should not be in the position of Han Xiang. ”

After speaking, King Han was silent for a moment, then picked up a pen on the case, and began to reply to the letter of King Qin and King Wei in a depressed heart.

It's just that halfway through the letter, King Han's eyes suddenly darkened, and then he lost consciousness in the exclamations of everyone.

On the other side, the country of Qi is in Linzi.

Unlike the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han, who paid close attention to the battle in Fangcheng, the attention of the Qi kings was more focused on Yingdu.

"The king of Chu issued an edict to implement the policy of donating grain to get knights, and the nobles of Chu responded one after another?"

At this time, Qi Wangdi looked at the latest information from the Chu State, and his heart became heavy.

"The strong resistance of the nobles of the Chu State in Huaibei before, so that General Zhangzi fought hard for more than half a year without any gain, which was beyond the expectations of the widow.

And now, in order to force out the strength of the nobles of Chu, the king of Chu does not hesitate to buy the nobles with his title. And those nobles of Chu also responded to the call of the king of Chu and gathered the last of their clansmen to prepare for the war.

Even, those merchants and heroes of Chu who did not have a title donated food for the title of Chu State, and actively formed a private army to prepare for the war.

The nobles responded, the people of the country were attached, and the entire Chu country was gathered around the king of Chu. How could it fail!

If you force an attack, you will undoubtedly encounter extremely fierce resistance, and then you will suffer heavy casualties, so the next war will not be easy to fight, and even if you can win this war, it will be a defeat for both sides. ”

Speaking of this, Qi Wangdi faintly had a fear of Chu State in his heart, and at this moment, he even had an urge to retreat.

It's just that as soon as he thought of the consequences of retreating, he immediately shook his head.

At this time, it is not the time to withdraw the army, at least the voice of the retreating army cannot come out of his mouth first, otherwise, the Wei and Song dynasties, who are cooperating with Chu, will definitely be dissatisfied with him, which will lead to the separation of the two countries.

Now that Korea is dependent on Qin, Qin and Han are united, and the strength of Qin should not be underestimated.

After the destruction of Zhongshan by the Zhao State, he faintly already had the strength and ambition to challenge the dominance of the Qi State Alliance, plus the Zhao State and the Yan State were allies, so the Zhao State no longer had to rely on the allies of the Qi State, but a powerful country that could wrestle with him.

Therefore, in order to consolidate the hegemony of Qi and to suppress Qin and Zhao, Qi must not lose the two allies of Wei and Song at this time.

Thinking of this, Qi Wangdi smiled: "Therefore, although the widow can't directly withdraw the army at this time, in order to avoid too much loss, he should secretly issue an edict to let General Zhang Zi carefully preserve his strength." As for the attack on the Chu State, let the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han, who are bent on obtaining the northern part of the Han Dynasty, go to the death with the Chu State. ”

Qi Wangdi was snickering in his heart, and suddenly, a waiter came in and reported: "King, Prime Minister Zuo asks to see you." ”

"Prime Minister Zuo, please..."

Soon, Ji Zi walked into the palace and reported to Qi Wangdi: "Yingdu is urgent." ”

"Ji Zi, what's going on in the Chu State again?" Qi Wangdi was stunned, he had just received the news that the King of Chu had betrayed his lord, could it be that there was more important news than this in Yingdu now.

On the other side, as soon as Ji Zi heard King Qi's inquiry, he immediately responded: "King, not long ago, Prime Minister Han raided Fangcheng, an important town in Chu State, and the King of Chu was frightened, and he had already ordered Deng Lingguang to lead King Chu's guards to Fangcheng to rescue. ”

Qi Wangdi smiled disapprehantly: "The expected thing, since the widow knew that Han Chen's raid on Fangcheng failed, he already knew that the guards of the King of Chu would definitely go to Fangcheng to rescue. ”

Saying that, King Qi said confidently and proudly: "Because now the only army in the entire Chu State that can be transferred to Fangcheng to rescue is his King Chu's guards." ”

"The king is wise." Ji Zi praised it, and then said: "But the news that the minister got is not only that, we should report it in Yingdu, and the king of Chu has also gone to Hanbei." ”

"This is true, the king of Chu personally went to Hanbei?" Qi Wangdi was stunned and hurriedly confirmed.

Ji Zi nodded: "It's true, and the King of Chu also brought Gongzi Wangcai, who has not yet performed the crown ceremony, and all the clansmen who have reached the age of fourteen from the Zhaochang Fan Huan family to Wancheng, these thousands of people act together, and they can't hide from others at all."

In addition, Nei Ying came to report, and before leaving, he also entrusted the state of Chu and the two young sons who had not yet reached the age of fourteen to the crown prince. ”

"This..." Qi Wangdi showed a sense of shock, and said in an admiring tone: "The king of Chu entrusted the country and his young son to take his son to the front line, this is already the heart of fighting to the death." With such a King of Chu, the State of Chu has been able to shock the world for so many years, which is also a matter of course, and the widow is not as good as the King of Chu! ”

Qi Wangdi sighed with emotion, then his expression changed, he showed a smile, looked at Ji Zi in front of him and asked, "Prime Minister, you said that after this King of Chu went to Hanbei, what will happen next?" ”

As soon as Ji Zi heard it, he heard the song and knew the meaning of the song, and immediately responded: "Obviously, the three kingdoms of Qin, Han and Wei know that the king of Chu has arrived in northern Han with the determination to die, and they must be excited, and they must be relieved by the king of Chu."

At the same time, after the soldiers of Chu knew the heart of the king of Chu, they would definitely fight desperately to repay the king of Chu. ”

Qi Wangdi nodded and said with a smile: "That's exactly the reason, but the next Chu State will play against the Three Kingdoms in Hanbei, and it will be the tip of the needle against Mai Mang, who does the prime minister think will win." ”

Ji Zi laughed, and then arched his hand and said, "The minister thought that the king would win." ”

"Hahaha..." Qi Wangdi couldn't stop laughing.

Then, King Qi laughed and immediately ordered: "Pass the widow's edict to General Zhangzi, tell him that the decisive battle between the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han and Chu is imminent, and let him strengthen the offensive against Huaibei to prevent the Huaibei Chu army from reinforcing Hanbei." ”

"Yui."

"Spread the edict, immediately send someone to inform the other countries, just say that the outnumbered people will not defeat the Chu State and vow not to give up, let the other four countries make persistent efforts to defeat the Chu State in one fell swoop."

"Yui."

Then, as soon as the official edict was completed, Qi Wangdi immediately wrote down a secret edict by himself, and then said to Ji Zi, who had not yet left: "Prime Minister, pass the widow's secret edict to General Zhangzi." ”

"Yui."
