Chapter 549: Qin State makes a move

I don't know who wrote a set of history about the expansion of Chinese civilization in which book, from the small tribes that developed from the source of the Yellow River to the occupation of the Yellow River Valley, the ancestors created the era of three emperors and five emperors, followed by Xia, Shang, and Zhou......

In that book, many historical events were used to introduce the Yellow River (Chinese) people's desire to occupy land, and countless ethnic groups were either integrated or killed in the conquest of the Yellow River people, and disappeared into the forest of the world's nations. In the dynastic period, the people who developed from the source of the Yellow River began to have a state, which was also a bloody history of the Yellow River people's resistance and expansion to the outside world.

If Lu Zhe is not mistaken, and there is no wrong guess in the book, even during the Spring and Autumn War, the feudal state of the Zhou royal territory has not stopped expanding outward, such as Qin Rongdi, Zhao Rong, Beirong, Yan Lihu, and Chu Zhengmanyue...... And so on, there are many undocumented expansion wars.

It seems that it was only in the late Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period that the countries completely withdrew their attention and no longer expanded beyond the borders of the Zhou royal family's territory, but were full of thoughts to eliminate the feudal states that were also under the Zhou royal family and become the only masters of this land?

In fact, even when the warring states were fighting desperately with each other, the pace of outward expansion of various countries did not completely stop, but in terms of strength, it was much weaker than before the eyes were withdrawn, and the process of outward expansion naturally could not be compared with the previous all-out expansion.

Under today's situation, Lu Zhe knows that there is Yan State in the expansion of the Yan State, and the Yan State has advanced its territory to more than 300 miles in just two years, and the Korean Peninsula has been defeated for most of the later generations, if it were not for the Zhao State to shrink the defense line so that the Yan State would have to withdraw to deal with the Qin State that might come to attack, it is estimated that it will not be difficult for the Yan army to capture the entire peninsula.

In addition to the Yan Kingdom, which was expanding to the northeast, the Qi Kingdom also seemed to be heading towards the ocean, and their naval army found many small islands at sea. It was also landed on Jeju Island in the afterlife in the accident of the storm.

At the same time, isn't Lu Zhe's side also attacking Lingnan? Therefore, he does not think that the eyes of people nowadays are "trapped" by the one-third of an acre of land under their feet, and the desire to expand outward has not been completely cut off. So under the premise that people still have the desire to expand outward, the extraterritoriality of the land of China is not a "barren land" in the eyes of people, but a land that can be expanded and built, so there will be no strange idea that there is no value of occupation except for the Central Plains?

In fact, although the idea of great unification ensured the foundation of the Chinese territory, it really made the eyes of this ethnic group stare at the one acre and three points of land under their feet, and the way for the slave owners to do a good job for the stability of their rule was that there was no major event in the world, so that they could not use soldiers without soldiers. Therefore, it has always adopted the policy of weakening the people and ignoring the people, which has fundamentally restricted the continuous expansion of ethnic groups or the development of colonization.

Lu Zhe did not intend to just claim hegemony on the land of China, so he treated any country the same, so allies or enemies were always based on actual needs.

The Qi Yan coalition army hurriedly rushed to the place where Qin Zhao started the battle, and there was no time to deal with the Qin army and Meng Yi, who were still less than 10,000. And Lu Zhe didn't have the idea of annihilating Meng Yi's Qin army, but it didn't seem to be the same thing to leave it alone.

"Please come to the camp with Monnei," Wang Li first showed a surprised expression, and then a blank expression: "You don't plan to send troops to fight ......"

"If Meng Yi is willing to come by himself, he will temporarily hand over the command of the army. Why should I fight? If Meng Yi does not agree to this condition, then Lu Zhe's other meaning is that he will be annihilated with heavy troops.

Wang Li really didn't figure out the situation, he and Meng Yi had long been mentally prepared for the Qin army to face a difficult predicament when they raided the Zhao army. Now that Qi Yan seemed to have forgotten about their existence, Lu Zhe was not so angry as to annihilate this Qin army. But if Meng Yi comes to the camp as a hostage, and the army must be handed over, is this good news or bad news?

"You're going to let me go back?" Wang Li asked again in confusion.

Lu Zhe looked at Wang Li strangely: "That means that you are not willing to hand over the army temporarily?" ”

"This ......" Wang Li was really stunned. Na Na said: "It depends on the ...... of the Mongolian conspiracy"

Lu Zhe waved his hand at Wang Li as if he was driving away, he had already given a chance, if Meng Yi didn't know the current affairs. Although there will be some casualties when the hundreds of thousands of troops on Shen's side attack the Qin army with less than 10,000, the Qin army will definitely not be able to escape the end of total annihilation.

Wang left and left with a lot of puzzlement, and the hind foot Kuaitong, Gongwei, Xiao He and others entered Lu Zhe's big tent.

"Lord, except for the troops who are waiting on the edge of the Chu realm, the northern legion and the rest of the corresponding troops will arrive tomorrow." Kuaitong saw Lu Zhe standing in front of the map of the mountains and rivers, and paused before asking: "Qin, Qi, Yan, Zhao, the total strength of the Quartet exceeds one million; We, Wei, Han, and Chu, combined have a combined strength of 570,000. There are more than 1.2 million troops hostile to us, and even if we add Wei and Han, we will only have 300,000, this? ”

Lu Zhe naturally knew what Kuaitong's worries were, it was nothing more than that he felt that too many hostile troops were too close to the border, but Lu Zhe was not too worried.

It is impossible for the Qin army to attack Lu Zhe with the Qin army of the other countries, and in turn, the countries will not unite with the Qin army, so many armies on both sides will only focus on destroying each other, how dare they provoke Lu Zhe who is "out of the way" at this moment?

In addition, in many cases, it is not good to have more troops, and the field affected by the battle of nearly one million troops will be very large, which is a huge test for logistics transportation.

"The Qin army's baggage hoarding place is in Sanchuan County, which is nearly five hundred miles away from the battlefield; Zhao's supplies were concentrated in Handan, which was nearly 700 miles away from the battlefield; The country of Yan is even farther, so far that you don't have to think about transporting baggage from the mainland. Lu Zhe really wanted to praise Meng Yi or Xu Yan was really good at choosing the place to fight: "The only one who can provide supplies and baggage for the coalition army in time is the Qi State." ”

Kuaitong showed a thinking expression, and after a while, he also figured out the mystery: "In this way, the materials of the Qi State will inevitably be greatly consumed, which is still based on the premise that the King of Qi is willing to take it out, if he is unwilling to take it out, the Qin State will win a big victory that can determine the fortune of the country." ”

Yes, the time has come to test the Qi State, and the Qi Wang Dan can take out the materials, so how many materials will the Qi State consume in this war, and will there be enough materials to launch the Qin Attack campaign after consumption?

If Qi Wang Dan didn't take it out, Zhao Guo could still risk getting supplies from Handan that was about once every two months, and Yan Guo didn't have to think about transporting baggage from the mainland at all, and this sudden outbreak of a large-scale battle Qin State would be considered a win, not only would it win, but it would also destroy the alliance between Qi and other countries!

I have to say that Qin has talents, and Meng Yi is worthy of the identity of the first emperor's internal conspiracy, and Xu Yan is even more of an instant decision. However, there is one thing that they must be very clear, that is, there is another key to whether the strategy can be implemented smoothly, and this key is Lu Zhe!

The venue where a large-scale battle is about to break out is not far from Lu Zhe, and it can even be said that it is fighting in the hinterland of Wei Han's territory, and Lu Zhe's attitude can already determine which camp wins or loses, so Meng Yi simply came to Lu Zhe's camp alone, and the first moment he saw Lu Zhe was to bow down and salute: "Lu Hou, Yi will hand over the command of the army to you according to His Majesty's will." ”

Many people in the tent were stunned for a while, and they wanted to understand that they were referring to the Qin army of less than 10,000 and not the 200,000 or so who fought with Qi, Yan, and Zhao, and they didn't know where it was a disguised surrender.

"Hmm!" Lu Zhe pointed to the vacant sitting garden on the right side: "There are other things to do with internal conspiracy, right?" ”

Meng Yi said: "Yi also brought you the prince, 200,000 horses, more than a million cattle and sheep and other livestock. ”

Prince? Kuaitong's hand shook, and the scribes couldn't help but exclaim, and those generals clenched their fists.

O king! The feudal king from the first emperor, although Lu Zhe has actually controlled the territory of more than eight counties, but he has always been a marquis, and they have persuaded their lord to be the king more than once, but each time they were pushed back by a sentence "the time has not come" or "the name is not right". Now, Meng Yi came on behalf of the First Emperor and told the news of Lu Zhe's crown, and they immediately looked at Lu Zhe with wide eyes, feeling strange and excited at the same time.

Kuaitong frowned, frowned deeply, and his face became extremely ugly.

Regardless of whether the anti-flag is raised or not, whether Lu Zhe takes the initiative to attack Qin or not, the fact that Lu Zhe is a rebel of the Qin State will not change, since it is already a rebellion of the Qin State, how can Lu Zhe accept the canonization of the First Emperor, and once he accepts it, will he not be subject to others?

Lu Zhe raised his eyebrows and didn't speak, he was looking at his subordinates with different faces, and he could guess that many people were moved, and it was not a person without worry or anger on his face.

He has laid out a strategy of killing many birds with one stone for the raid of other countries, and now he is coming to Lu Zhe to set up a difficult problem? Who is the current mastermind of the Qin State, it should not be some nameless person!

After a long time, Lu Zhe finally spoke: "If you join forces with Qin to attack and kill the nations of Xiuti. ”

Kuaitong breathed a sigh of relief, he was extremely glad that Lu Zhe was not carried away by the king, focusing on internal affairs and watching Qin fight with other countries was their development strategy, as long as this was not destroyed and not overly stimulated to either side, then everything was secondary.

"No, no, no, Your Majesty doesn't mean to let you send troops to fight," Meng Yi was still extremely surprised in his heart, he never thought that someone would be so calm in front of the king: "I give you the title of king to thank you for removing the great trouble of barbarism for the Chinese and Miao people, and also thank you for opening up a large territory in the south for the Chinese and Miao people." ”

Lu Zhe couldn't help but be moved, he knew a little, if there is any king in the world today who is committed to expanding the living space of the Chinese people, it must be the first emperor! (To be continued......)
