Another winter passed, and the spring of 252 B.C. arrived.

Trees sprout, grass swaying and dancing in the spring breeze, farmers come out of their winter-nested houses and begin to wipe down their tools in preparation for the new year's spring ploughing.

Everything looks very vibrant, so exciting.

But for the high-level leaders of various countries in the land of China, the arrival of spring is a different meaning.

Another big game is about to begin.

Zhao Guo once again began to dispatch troops.

This news was not hidden from anyone, and in fact, Zhao Dan and his ministers of Zhao State did not intend to hide it from anyone.

The current Zhao State is completely different from the Zhao State during the Battle of Changping eight years ago.

Eight years ago, Zhao Guo was just a 10,000-year-old second who was overwhelmed by the Qin State and could only fight to the death to break out, otherwise he could only perish in silence.

Fortunately, Zhao Guo's desperate outburst was successful.

It is precisely because of the victory in the Battle of Changping that the Zhao State began with the cavalry and archery of the Zhao Wuling King Hufu and took three generations of kings for decades to painstakingly and painstakingly govern and finally achieved the greatest reward, making the Zhao State the first power in the world for the first time since the founding of the country.

But even at that time, the Zhao State, which was known as the world's most powerful country, was actually still walking on thin ice, because even if any two or three countries united, the Zhao State had the possibility of failure or even defeat.

Fortunately, Zhao Guo survived again and again.

After many times of vertical and horizontal cooperation, and many times of various countries to conquer Zhao, Zhao finally grew up step by step, and became a superpower with a vast territory and a large population, which now extends to the Korean Peninsula in the east, the Qilian Mountains in the west, the Monan grassland in the north, and the banks of the Huai River in the south.

At this time, Zhao Guo finally grew into a behemoth that all countries were afraid of!

When such a behemoth starts the war machine again, the entire land of China will tremble and be terrified!

When they learned that Zhao had once again dispatched troops, the remaining high-level officials of Qin, Qi, Chu, and Han immediately panicked, and many envoys and letters began to go back and forth between the countries, and the monarchs who had been completely stimulated by the lessons of Wei and Yan deeply understood the meaning of the idiom of cold lips and teeth, and began to have the intention of uniting against Zhao again.

It is under such a background that in Linzi City, the capital of Qi State, the number one celebrity in front of Qi Wangjian, and a guest came to the mansion of Hou Sheng, the prime minister of Qi State.

Hou Sheng undoubtedly attached great importance to this guest, and he personally guarded the side door of the mansion, and then took the guest all the way to his study.

"Zheng Qing, please take a seat." Hou Sheng's chubby face was full of smiles, not only did he send people delicious wine and fruits, but he was also very kind when he spoke: "I don't know what happened when Zheng Qing came all the way from Handan?" ”

It was none other than Zhao's foreign minister, Zheng Zhu.

Zheng Zhu looked at Hou Sheng, who was flattering in front of him and almost wagged his tail, and he also felt a little emotion in his heart.

To tell the truth, Zheng Zhu has been doing diplomacy for twenty or thirty years, and Zheng Zhu can be said to have suffered all kinds of anger in these years, especially the time when he played Qin Wangji and Fan Sui as a monkey during the Battle of Changping, which made Zheng Zhu remember it vividly and hate it to this day.

But now it's different.

The current Zheng Zhu, no matter which country he goes to, as long as he reports it, then the monarch of this country will definitely summon Zheng Zhu as soon as possible, and then talk to Zheng Zhu politely, and even as long as Zheng Zhu is willing, he can enjoy the feeling of commanding in front of the monarch of other countries, and appreciate the bitter appearance of the monarch of other countries who are very angry but still have to keep smiling.

The reason for such a change is that there is no other reason because Zhao Guo has become stronger!

Weak countries have no diplomacy, these five words are absolutely true.

If his country is a weak chicken, then no matter how much Zheng Zhu talks about it, no one will take Zheng Zhu seriously.

But if his country is as strong as Zhao, then no matter where Zheng Zhu goes, he must be treated as a guest, and no matter how much he laughs and scolds, others must endure it.

Because Zheng Zhu represents the Zhao State, and no one in this world dares to offend the Zhao State at all!

The attitude of winning after winning is undoubtedly the best embodiment of this truth.

Zheng Zhu retracted his thoughts, and a smile appeared in his attitude towards Hou Sheng.

"Houqing, the reason why Zheng Zhu took the liberty to visit today is actually to discuss some things with Houqing."

Hou Sheng's eyes rolled, and he smiled busily: "Please also ask Zheng Qing to say, as long as Hou Sheng can do it, he will definitely not refuse!" ”

Zheng Zhu smiled and said very indifferently: "Presumably Houqing should know that recently, King Han suddenly sent troops to 'take over' Luoyi and depose the Western Zhou Jun and the Eastern Zhou Jun." ”

The Western Zhou and Eastern Zhou dynasties here are not talking about two dynasties in history, but two feudal states that still exist in this world today.

Don't look at today's Zhou Tianzi only has such a palm-sized place, in fact, even this palm-sized place is not Zhou Tianzi's own, it is also divided into two countries, one is the Western Zhou Kingdom and the other is the Eastern Zhou Kingdom, which corresponds to the Western Zhou Jun and the Eastern Zhou Jun.

As for the titular Zhou Tianzi now, he has long been vacated by these two feudal monarchs, and even the Western Zhou Kingdom and the Eastern Zhou Kingdom will have several major battles from time to time, and the scale of the war usually ranges from a few hundred to a thousand people, which can be said to be quite intense.

But in any case, the Western Zhou Kingdom and the Eastern Zhou Kingdom are the bloodline of the Zhou royal family, and now Han Wangran has blatantly invaded and destroyed the Western Zhou and Eastern Zhou Kingdoms, which is actually equivalent to completely annexing the territory of Zhou Tianzi.

In other words, today's Zhou Tianzi really has no subordinates at all, and he is completely dead in name.

Hou Sheng nodded and said, "I have also heard about this matter. ”

"Bang!" Zheng Zhu suddenly slapped the table in front of him hard, startling Hou Sheng.

I saw Zheng Zhu's face serious, and he said to Hou Sheng: "This Han Wang Ran is simply unreasonable, he has offended the Son of Heaven so much, and he must be punished!" Hou Qingru said, isn't this the truth? ”

After listening to Zheng Zhu's words, Hou Sheng's heart also wanted to complain very much.

Who doesn't know that a few years ago, you Zhao people ransacked Luoyi, and even Jiuding moved back to Handan, and now what kind of moral guards are coming to pretend, who believes this!?

Hou Sheng coughed, nodded again and again, and said: "What Zheng Qing said is reasonable, this Han Wangran has gone too far!" ”

Although I know that Zheng Zhu is completely nonsense, but ...... It is impossible to criticize, and it is impossible to criticize in this life.

Zheng Zhu Zhengse said: "Houqing, so my king has decided, at the request of Zhou Tianzi, my king is ready to send troops to crusade against South Korea and seek justice for Zhou Tianzi!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Hou Sheng finally fully understood what Zheng Zhu meant, and his eyes widened slightly: "King Zhao is ready to crusade against Korea?" ”

When he heard the news, Hou Sheng's heart was both a little nervous and relaxed.

The nervousness was due to the fact that Zhao Guo really had no intention of stopping the pace of expansion, and continued to send troops after only one winter.

And relaxation, of course, is because of ...... This time, it was not the State of Qi that Zhao was attacking.

Dead friends don't die poor.

Zheng Zhu nodded, and said to Hou Sheng: "So this time Zheng Zhu came to Qi State, just hoping that Qi State can send troops with our country to attack the unprincipled South Korea!" ”

"Ahem, ahem!" Hou Katsu, who was drinking water to hide his nervousness, was choked all at once.

After a while, Hou Sheng looked at Zheng Zhu with incredible eyes: "King Zhao really thinks so?" ”

"Of course!" Zheng Zhu Zhengse said: "Doesn't Houqing think so? ”

"Well...... this" Hou Sheng thought for a while and said, "Zheng Qing should also know that this kind of military affairs must be agreed by our king, and Hou Sheng himself will not be able to make a decision." ”

"It doesn't matter." Zheng Zhu waved his hand very heroically and said, "Who in the world doesn't know that Houqing is extremely trusted by the King of Qi?" As long as Hou Qing is willing to cooperate with me to persuade King Qi, then this matter must not be a problem! ”

Hou Sheng is really a little speechless.

Now the whole world knows that you Zhao Guo is going to guard against you, Zhao Guo, and you still came to let me Qi Guo follow you Zhao Guo to fight South Korea, isn't this nonsense?

Helpless, Hou Sheng had no choice but to excuse himself and said: "The thing is actually like this, my king deeply feels that the continuous wars of the Qi Kingdom have led to the withering of the people's livelihood, so now the king actually doesn't want to start any more wars." Moreover, if Zhao State uses the power of Zhao State to attack a South Korea, it must be a success, and there is no need for Qi State to participate in it! ”

Hou Sheng's words were very decisive.

Anyway, Qi State will definitely not participate in the Zhao State's invasion of Han, even if it does, it must stand on the opposite side of Zhao State, how can it be possible to ally with Zhao State?

Zheng Zhu glanced at Hou Sheng and said with some dissatisfaction: "So what does Hou Qing mean that Qi Guo does not plan to participate in the war this time?" ”

Hou Sheng only felt a tingling on his scalp, and after coughing, he said very reluctantly: "That's true......"

Zheng Zhu glanced at Hou Sheng deeply, and said slowly: "Since this is the case, then when I ask to see King Qi tomorrow, I also hope that Hou Qing will not speak back on his word when the time comes." Hou Qing must know that those who go back on Zhao Guo will never end well! ”

After saying this, Zheng Zhu stood up and walked away.

Hou Sheng sat for a long time, and suddenly slapped his thigh: "It's over, I was caught by this Zheng Zhu's words!" ”

It wasn't until this time that Hou Sheng understood that the reason why Zheng Zhu came to him was to get the promise that "Qi will not go to war" from his mouth.

As long as tomorrow when Zheng Zhu asks to see Qi Wangjian, Hou Sheng's position is that "Qi will not participate in the war", then Qi Wang Jian is likely to be affected by Hou Sheng, and finally make the decision not to participate in the war.

To be honest, Hou Sheng still has this confidence in himself.

If Qi does not send troops, Zhao will have one less opponent.

In this way, wouldn't Hou Sheng be equivalent to helping Zhao Guo?

That doesn't seem good......

But as Zheng Zhu just said, if Qi Wangjian is not persuaded to stay out of the matter, then won't Hou Sheng become a person who rebels against Zhao Guo?

The last person who offended Zhao Guo seems to be called Lejian......

As soon as he thought of the end of the game, a few drops of cold sweat slowly dripped from Hou Sheng's forehead.

A gust of spring breeze blew in from the door that was opened by Zheng Zhu just now, and the cold wind of early spring slapped on Hou Sheng's face, making this Qi State Prime Minister suddenly feel-

This spring, it's a bit cold.
