Chapter 1081: Situation

Wei State Liang.

"Gan Mao is almost at the beam!" Wei Wangfu frowned and looked at Wei Xiangzhai Qiang and said, "Xiangguo, have you confirmed that Gan Mao was expelled by the Qin State?" Don't be like Zhang Yi, who was expelled by the King of Qin on the surface, but in fact, he came to harm my Wei State for the sake of the Qin State. ”

"Absolutely not." Zhai Qiang responded: "According to the news from the Qin State, not long ago, Gan Mao led the defeat of Chu, which not only caused Qin Wangdang's dissatisfaction with him, but also caused him to be besieged by Qin's political enemies.

Various reasons superimposed on each other, causing Gan Mao to lose power in the Qin State. ”

"Alas~" After Wei Wangjun heard that Gan Mao was besieged because of the failure of the invasion of Chu, he couldn't help but sigh: "The mighty Five Nations Alliance collapsed because of the Battle of Huaibei. The outnumbered people lost troops in Huaibei, and the national strength declined greatly. And the other four countries were also like frightened birds, King Han was so frightened that he directly announced that he was going to Chu to see the King of Chu, King Song was scared out of illness, and all state affairs were handed over to Prince Song Prince Zhen.

And Qin and Qi have now also announced an alliance with Chu.

In the blink of an eye, there was only one widow left who continued to fight against the Chu State. ”

Saying that, King Wei looked at Zhai Qiang uneasily and asked, "At this moment, if the widow still wants to continue to fight against the Chu State, why don't we also ask the King of Chu for peace." ”

"Never!" Zhai Qiang still unswervingly advised: "King, in the battle of Huaibei, all the 30,000 elite soldiers of my Wei State died in Huaishui, and the 150,000 army was annihilated.

Such an unforgettable hatred, whether it is the relatives of the soldiers, or the families of the soldiers, or the nobles in the country, or even the ministers or kings, all hate the Chu people to the core, and would rather fight to the death with the Chu people than bend the knee to the Chu State and sue for peace.

Moreover, the first king died, and the king ascended the throne not long after, at this moment, the people did not believe it, the ministers were not attached, and the fathers and brothers in the country all looked at the king.

If the king forgets the hatred of the previous king at this time and grovels to the Chu State for peace, how will the ministers of the court think of the king, what will the people in the country think, and how can the former king under Jiuquan be peaceful.

In the future, how will the king establish his majesty? And how to rule the Wei state? And how do you raise your head before the kings of the nations? ”

"This... Alas..." When King Wei heard this, he not only let out a long sigh full of hatred.

In the first battle of Huaibei, countless people of Wei died of their relatives, and the most powerful soldiers of Wei were wiped out.

Now the people in the country, the relatives of the soldiers, the children of the nobles, and the people in the public office, all keep saying that they want to fight to the death with the Chu State, and even the ministers who are close to the Chu State dare not speak out openly in the mouths of the people, and he who has just ascended the throne, even if he is unwilling to lead a group of remnants of the defeated army to face the soldiers of the Chu State alone at this time, it is impossible.

At this time, Zhai Qiang saw that the King of Wei was depressed and had no fighting spirit, and seemed to have no confidence in resisting the Chu State, so he immediately persuaded:

"The king doesn't have to be discouraged, although the four kingdoms of Qin, Qi, Han and Song are all vying to make friends with the Chu State, lest they be retaliated by the Chu State, although we are already isolated and helpless on the surface, but this is just an illusion, and we are not without a chance to defeat the Chu State."

When Wei Wang heard this, his spirits lifted slightly.

"Great King, although the State of Chu has defeated our five countries this time, the State of Chu has been attacked by our Wei State three times, almost lost Hanbei in World War I, Huaibei in World War II is almost unprotected, and in recent years, it has barely repelled our five countries in the fierce battles of World War III.

The three major wars that accumulated over the years also greatly consumed the vitality of the Chu State, so that the Chu State even transferred the garrison in Jiangdong.

Now that the state of Chu has defeated our five countries, it has stationed troops in Chencheng and spied on my Liang, but it has not entered the army for a long time, the reason for this is not anything else, that is, the state of Chu is also powerless. ”

King Wei shook his head and said: "Having said that, the reason why the widow is more worried about the reason why the Chu State did not send troops is to make peace with the Qin and Qi countries, and now the Qin and Qi countries have formed an alliance with the Chu State, and the Han and Song countries have even gone to the Chu State to worship the King of Chu, and now the widows have completely fallen into a situation of isolation and helplessness."

Perhaps... Now is the time for Chu to send troops! ”

"The king's words are wrong, although the two countries of Qin and Qi have formed an alliance with the Chu State, they are just afraid of retaliation from the Chu State. Moreover, although they formed an alliance with the Chu State, according to the information we received, the Qin and Qi countries did not intend to cooperate with the Chu State to attack Wei.

On the contrary, Qi Xiangtian Wen has clearly replied to us that as long as the Chu State attacks Chu, the Qi State will not sit idly by and ignore it, and in order to show sincerity, the Qi State has already sent us a batch of weapons to support us in resisting the Chu State.

Similarly, the Qin State in the west also sent a batch of grain, and promised us that as long as the Chu army attacked Daliang, then the Qin State would immediately send another batch of grain, and at the critical moment, the Qin State would also send troops to help.

In addition, although we have some differences with Zhao and Han, the Sanjin Alliance has a long history, and as long as Wei is in trouble, Zhao and Han will not sit idly by.

Therefore, although we have no reinforcements on the surface, secretly, all countries in the world support us. As long as we can hold on to Daliang for three months, then the rescue divisions of various countries will arrive outside Daliang, and as long as Chu shows fatigue, then all countries will immediately attack Chu again.

At that time, it will not be that we are worried about how to hold the beam, but how the state of Chu will sue us for peace. ”

When the king of Wei heard this, his uneasy heart was a little certain, although he also knew that Qin and Qi were uneasy and kind, and wanted to use Wei to resist Chu and consume the strength of Chu and Wei at the same time.

However, now the country is full of voices that hate the Chu State, and he, who has just ascended the throne and lacks prestige, cannot suppress the voice of the country, and can only be pushed away by the general trend at home and abroad.

This sense of helplessness made him feel aggrieved, and he also wanted to change the current situation of the Wei State and quickly become the real Wei State, instead of slowly gathering power.

At this time, Wei Wangyun suddenly remembered that Gan Maolai who was coming to Daliang Road, and his eyes suddenly lit up, this is a good chess piece.

Thinking about it, Wei Wang Wei nodded, and then asked: "Xiangguo, since this is the case, then Gan Mao came to Wei, and the widow intends to treat each other with heavy courtesy, what do you think." ”

"Good." Zhai Qiang nodded and said: "Gan Mao has been the prime minister of Qin for many years, and he has an excellent relationship with Qin Wangdang, and this time the Qin State sent grain to Wei, which was strongly promoted by Gan Mao when he was in office. Therefore, the minister thought that although Gan Mao was no longer the prime minister of Qin, he was still very influential in the Qin State, and accepting Gan Mao and using Gan Mao to contact the King of Qin and the Qin State would definitely get twice the result with half the effort. ”

At this time, Wei Wangyu looked at Zhai Qiang, and suddenly sighed and said: "Xiwu unfortunately suffered in Huaishui, and now there are no good generals in the country.

Moreover, the widow also heard that the king of Chu was very dissatisfied with Gan Mao, and Gan Mao also resented the king of Chu for making him lose the position of Qin Xiang, if he could help the widow resist the Chu army, then he would definitely do his best.

Therefore, the widow intends to entrust the matter of the defensive beam to him, and I don't know what Xiangguo wants. ”
