It's not that Lu Zhe wants to open up any new battlefields, but that the strange behavior of the Qin State is too confusing, which has caused him to repeatedly show favor to other countries and also give rise to many doubts or suspicions.

It's just that there is such a reason as wanting to cooperate to fight the Qin State, even if it is the process of being won over by other countries, it will be limited, but it is just some acts of establishing diplomatic relations or communicating with each other (merchants), so that now all countries have to marry, isn't this too weird?

Well, Lu Zhe has repeatedly expanded, and his territory is half larger than that of the Central Plains, but most of those territories are basically in a state of wilderness, and he can't form a "strength" that is helpful to the national strength, so it seems that there is no need to be jealous because the territory is too big, right?

Army? Lu Zhe can pull up a million troops, but there are not a few countries among the countries that can raise a million troops, at least Zhao and Qi can form a million army anytime and anywhere, how can Yan also pull out 300,000, and Chu can form an army of 400,000 people in manpower.

Now the State of Qi is already a country with an army of one million, and the State of Zhao also has an army of 700,000 after some efforts. Among them, the Qi army is good or bad, and each person has a weapon, and Zhao has 400,000 soldiers with regular weapons.

According to Lu Zhe's understanding, the number of Yan State's troops also exceeded 400,000, of which 250,000 were already troops. On the Chu side, after rectification, the number of troops was raised to 300,000 again.

Except for Wei Han's small number of troops because of the "borrowed residence", which country does not have tens of millions of troops now? Even if Lu Zhe counts the Tuntian soldiers, the total number of troops on the register is only 650,000, which doesn't seem to be so scary! Of these 650,000 troops, 200,000 are now involved in the Lingnan Theater, and 50,000 can only be transferred for a short time because they want to pay attention to the newly occupied Minnan County and Nanhai County, counting the 120,000 troops in Nanling and the 30,000 troops in the north, only 150,000 can be mobilized and fought for a long time.

"The Qin State Guanmeng wants to find us to endorse, whether to agree or shirk. What is the impact of agreeing, and what is the effect of shirking? Lu Zhe turned a blind eye to the confusion and stunned of the group of people, and asked new questions.

Kuaitong is obviously a more sensitive type of person. He could already see that his master was preparing for the unexpected.

What the current Lu Zhe side should do is to digest the fruits of victory, and since the Lingnan side has begun to fight, it cannot be stopped before taking the entire Lingnan. In other words, if a new war can be avoided, it must be avoided as much as possible, and if a major war occurs outside Lingnan, not only will the fruits of victory be interrupted, but the impact on the attack on Lingnan will also be fatal.

Shusun Tong was telling Lu Zhe about the Qin State Guanmeng in accordance with etiquette, and the Qin State needed someone to endorse or invite it to have the qualifications to "legitimately" view the alliance.

There is "legality", of course, there is also the opposite sense of "illegality", for example, without the consent of many parties in the alliance, whether the Qin State makes a detour or forcibly appears at the scene of the alliance, it is an established fact that causes the alliance.

Although the Covenant has been diluted for a long time, in layman's terms, even some people without consent have the ability to arrive at the scene. It is not suitable to attack whether it is an allied person or an allied person. There are universal laws in this, and it is also an unspoken rule that leaves people with opportunities such as "a glimmer of life" similar to "Tiandao fifty, Tianyan forty-nine escapes".

"That is to say, without our endorsement, as long as the Qin State goes to Shen, the countries will not take those people from the Qin State?" Lu Zhe really can't understand this.

China is a country of etiquette, and it has emphasized some universal laws for nearly two thousand years, and for the countries with similar Chinese civilizations, unless they are dealing with the barbarian Hu people, they will always leave a feeling. They call this "leave a line in everything, and see each other in the future", just like the history books say that the cruel and boundless First Emperor did not kill all the countries after destroying them, at most he was kept under house arrest.

Kuaitong was inclined not to endorse the Qin state. After all, for the nations, the Qin State is a mortal enemy, unless the Qin State is completely finished, otherwise it will be endless hostility at all.

It's understandable, no matter what, the Qin State has destroyed all the nations, which is a deep hatred.

The people on Lu Zhe's side basically did not approve of endorsing the Qin State. It's not that they have a good impression of the Qin State, it's a matter of position.

What position? It's not anti-Qin or not, they are Lu Zhe's courtiers. What you think about should be the interests of your own group. Is there any benefit to being endorsed for the Qin state? It seems that there is no trace of benefit! Not only will he not get any benefits, but he will also have to supervise whether those Qin people who watch the alliance will cause trouble, and at the same time, it will also have a bad impact on the side of the countries.

"That's not an endorsement, but it doesn't stop Meng Yi from going cautiously." Lu Zhe set the tone.

The Qin Guanmeng procession would come from the northwest, passing through Nanyang County on the way. At present, only Lu Zhe has the ability to stop it in the northwest, otherwise it is possible for the three unfashionable forces in Nanyang County to stop the elite Qin army of 2,000 tigers?

Kuaitong didn't know what he had been thinking, and when Lu Zhe was about to dissolve this small meeting, he finally woke up from his thoughts: "Lord, why does the Qin State have to go to the Guanmeng?" Is it really just a show of weakness? ”

This is also what Lu Zhe has always been unable to figure out, Guanmeng's weakness is just a statement, if Qin really wants to show weakness, it is enough to shrink the army in the Central Plains, why use such a means.

"The Qin State wants us to endorse it, and even came up with a promise to increase the number of war horses supplied to fight for it, presumably things will not be as simple as we imagined." Kuaitong should have some ideas, and said: "Wei and Han want to obtain our protection, and it can be seen that the two countries are full of sincerity in this function. But there have been a little more strange things recently, first the Zhao State contracted according to your Jianyì, and then the Chu State proposed a marriage with our undying Chu State to let go of hatred......"

After sorting out his thoughts, he listed them one by one, and he always said a lot, but he didn't know what he had discovered, and his attitude changed to be suspicious, as if the nations had dug a pit for the boss to wait for them to jump.

"The Chu people are romantic, and the Xiang family is the dominant family in the Chu country. The Xiang family is a minister of the Chu State, and being your courtier is two different treatments, "Kuai Tong is clear about Lu Zhe's jealousy of the Xiang family, and the Xiang family's conspiracy against Lu Zhe has never been broken, and the topic naturally involves the Xiang family.

Others don't know the ambitions of the Xiang family, how can Lu Zhe have also watched "The Struggle between Chu and Han", and how can he not understand the planning and temperament of the Xiang family. His hesitant attitude towards other countries is also attributed to the fact that the Xiang clan has been acting too strangely recently, so low-key that there is almost no movement about the Xiang clan, which in itself is an abnormality.

"Wei Han will not make any changes, after all, whether it is the natural mortal enemy Qin State, or the Qi State that has the desire to seize the territory of Wei Han, without our protection, it is unknown whether Wei Han Zuo can keep it." Lu Zhe didn't say anything else, but he sent a lot of generals to help Wei Han train his troops, so in some respects, Wei Han's army can be regarded as the biggest monitoring, and the Wei army and Han army that he sent to train the generals will definitely have a tendency towards Lu Zhe's side.

Even if Wei Han has any plans now, at most, he wants to use Lu Zhe to achieve his own goal, which can be confirmed.

Kuaitong also excluded Zhao State, after all, the biggest enemy of Zhao State is the bordering Qin State, and Zhao State will not only lose aid against Lu Zhe, but it seems that it is no good for Zhao State to become hostile to Lu Zhe?

"If there is any conspiracy, it will only be Qi, Chu, and Yan?" The Chu that Lu Zhe said refers to the Xiang clan.

For the time being, the conspiracy against Lu Zhe can only be Qi, Chu, and Yan, and perhaps add the Qin State, which doesn't know what to do in the near future.

The alliance has been determined, even if there are quite a lot of doubts, it is not suitable not to go to the alliance, but the corresponding preparations must really be made, and Lu Zhe quickly reached a consensus with the civil and military forces under his command.

When Lü Zhe's side was making corresponding adjustments, the more than 2,000 Qin troops led by Meng Yi and Wang Li arrived in Nanyang County five days earlier than expected, and they stopped near Yangcheng, which was one hundred and fifty miles away from Lü Zhe's territory, and Dong Fei once again negotiated with Lü Zhe's side about endorsing the Guanmeng.

Because of the relationship of rank, it was naturally impossible for Lu Zhe to come forward to negotiate with Dong Fei in person, and Xiao He, who was in power, refused to Dong Fei on behalf of Lu Zhe.

Qin Guo seemed to have expected that Lu Zhe would refuse, and he didn't dwell too much on Lu Zhe's refusal to endorse it, but in the process of Dong Fei's negotiations, new problems arose.

The Qin army brought by Meng Yi and Wang Li was not 2,000, but a full 80,000 Qin army. There are no complicated factors for Dong Fei to meet with Lu Zhe's side, but he just wants to show that the 80,000 Qin army did not come with hostility, at least not against Lu Zhe's hostility.

Eighty thousand Qin troops? Even if it is deceptive, unless he wants to enter a state of war with the Qin State, what can Lu Zhe say! Could it be that if Qin Jun is asked to go back, Qin Jun will really go back? He can only express Yan zhòng's dissatisfaction, and then what to do and continue to do something.

The follow-up news about the countries also continued to send to Nanling, Yan State will only have 30,000 troops with the alliance this time because of the relatively distant relationship, Qi State is dispatched 200,000, Zhao State is also correspondingly dispatched 200,000, and Chu State will have 100,000 troops. Of course, these are only the number of armies notified by the nations to the signatories, and only God knows whether it corresponds to the number of armies reported.

"Wei, Han, Qin, Zhao, Chu, Yan......" Lu Zhe didn't know what to say anymore, he raised the piece of paper in his hand: "Okay, there will be at least nearly a million troops gathered in such a small place as Shen at once!" ”

Millions of troops, just the camp stretches for dozens of miles, and Shen is not a big place, can you squeeze down so many troops at once? (To be continued......)
