Zhao is the king

Chapter 80 Sleeping and tasting gall 2

Therefore, since she was a child, she has understood the principle of being wise and wise to protect herself. She never competed and never robbed. She treated her father respectfully and filial piety, and treated her brothers humbly. When his father gradually became mediocre and became superstitious, he not only entrusted all the state affairs to Xiangbangzi, but also took back all the official seals of more than 300 stone officials in the country, so as to increase his son's prestige. In order to fight against the son, the prince Ping and the princes have made friends with the important ministers in the army to protect themselves.

Ji Zhi, who has a sensitive sense of political smell, has long smelled the strong murderous atmosphere in the country of Yan. At this time, it was at the time when South Korea and the State of Yan have established a covenant against Zhao, and it was necessary to exchange the children of the clan as hostages. Originally, the proton of this kind of small country alliance only needed some concubines to go, but in order to avoid harm abroad, she had to go to South Korea instead, so she escaped the disaster.

But the development of the situation was far beyond the expectation of Ji's post. The State of Yan was not only chaotic, but also completely chaotic. The prince and the prince and the sons attacked each other, causing chaos in the State of Yan. For this reason, it also attracted two malicious hungry wolves from the State of Qi and Zhongshan, occupying more than 60 cities in the State of Yan. If Zhao Wangyong had not stood up, the State of Qi would have almost destroyed the State of Yan, which had been established for more than 700 years.

Although Zhao Yong's calculation is that he doesn't want the State of Qi to sit up and wants the State of Yan to contain the State of Qi in the north, he is still grateful to him. After all, at that time, the State of Qi was at the peak of power and was in the period of Xuanwang's hegemony. They made friends with the State of Chu in the south, the State of Qin in the west, and the State of Wei and the State of Zhongshan, so no one could control it for a while. Although the vassal states were dissatisfied with the annexation of the State of Qi and the State of Yan, no one dared to stand up.

This is Zhao Yong's first to stand up, carry the anti-qi flag, and uphold justice for the State of Yan. You should know that the national strength of the State of Zhao in the world is not strong, far from the strength of the Three Kingdoms of Qi, Qin and Chu. It can only be regarded as a second-rate country, but it has the courage to resist the giant. Zhao Yong's vision and courage have to be admired by the world.

As expected by Zhao Yong, South Korea, which had already had an alliance with the State of Yan, was the first to stand up to support the State of Zhao. After discussing with the State of Zhao, it decided to support the position of Ji, who was a proton in South Korea, as the King of Yan. Ji Zhi's mother was the princess of the State of Qin and the daughter of King Huiwen of Qin at that time, so the King of Qin was also Ji Zhi's grandfather. When the grandson is in trouble, even outsiders like the State of Zhao and South Korea have come forward to help. How can the State of Qin sit idly by?

So the blood of the Three Kingdoms became an alliance, together with the State of Yan and the allied forces of the four countries, and went to Yan to expel the Qi army.

After the State of Qi occupied the State of Yan, it burned, killed and plundered everywhere, severely stripped the Yan people, and killed the clans of the State of Yan. Yandi ignited rebellion against the atrocities of the Qi army everywhere, so that occupied the State of Qi had to run to the fire everywhere. It was heard that the allied forces of the four countries had supported Ji's return to the throne. When the Qi people saw the great power of the coalition, they were worried about being defeated by the coalition, so they gave up most of the Yan land and transported most of the gold and silver of the State of Yan back to the State of Qi, leaving only to the devastated State of Yan.

This unprecedented turmoil has caused great trauma to the State of Yan. The people have lost more than 400,000 casualties, and almost every family has direct relatives in this turmoil. The treasury and arsenal accumulated by the State of Yan for many years were plundered by the State of Qi. The vitality of the State of Yan, which was originally at the end of the seven heroes, was greatly damaged, and there was no strong capital of the country. Therefore, the Yan people's looting of the State of Qi is undoubtedly hatred to the bone, and hatred has reached an irrecongible state.

With the hatred of the family and the country, she was determined to destroy Qi. After ascending the throne, she was determined to make the State of Yan strong, so she looked around for good talents in governing the country. After listening to the advice of the old minister Guo Kui, he saluted Guo Huai and built a palace as a teacher. As a result, the sages from all over the country felt the sincerity of the King of Yan and gathered in the State of Yan one after another. Among them, Luoyi Su Qin, Zhao Ren Opera Xin, and Qi Ren Zou Yan, all of whom are famous generals in Liangchen. Yan suddenly has a lot of talents and is famous.

Unfortunately, the country of Yan is poor and weak, and the people are few. Although it has been trying to govern for more than ten years, it is still not as good as the Central Plains countries. Not to mention Qiangqi, even the State of Wei may not be comparable, but it can only be slightly better than South Korea.

This side also made Ji's post more and more painful, forcing herself to deal with state affairs day and night, and nothing big or small, and no negligence. Even Su Qin and Zou Yan and other ministers had a hard time.

Su Qin thought about replying, and said slowly after a long time: "Wang, when I was in the Song Dynasty, I heard a joke. The Song people have people whose seedlings are not long, and the mang Mang returned, saying that he said: 'I'm sick today! Help the seedlings grow up!' His son tends to look at it, and Miao is looking at it.

"So Mencius said: There are no help to the elderly in the world! Those who give up when they think it is useless are the ones who don't get the seedlings; those who help the elders and those who give up the seedlings; those who are not useless, but also those who hurt them.

"Now that the national strength of the State of Yan has risen, and the middle of the country is united against the enemy, so that the people's hearts can be used. But if the king is eager for quick success and short-term benefits and wants to catch up with the State of Qi, it will undoubtedly be no different from the Song people's 'helping'. Not only can he benefit the State of Qin, but it will hurt the root of the country.

Ji's body was shocked, and his face seemed to be enlightened. He still sighed and said, "I don't know what Su Xiang said, but if it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to take revenge in my lifetime. What's the use if it goes on like this!"

Su Qin was silent for a while and looked up at Ji Zhidao; "King, now the politics of the State of Yan is clear and we are united, but after all, the country is small and the people are weak, the population is less than half of the State of Qi, and the state capital is far worse, so if we want to destroy Qi in the short term, we must fundamentally solve the problem."

Ji showed interest and hurriedly asked, "Su wants to say, is there any other way?"

"There are nothing more than two methods, strong swallows and weak."

"What is a strong swallow and what is a weak Qi?"

Su Qin muttered: "Strong Yan is nothing more than two methods. One is Xu Tuzhi, just like what we do today; the other is to attack the city and land to fill the population, which is a quick success."

"Now Donghu has repeatedly violated our frontier, plundered money and grain, and also restrained a large number of our troops to resist Donghu. If you can solve Donghu once and for all, and integrate the Hu people into the country like the State of Zhao, you can not only avoid being attacked by the enemy, but also get a large number of grassland cavalry and expand the land for thousands of miles. Why not?

Ji Zhe looked thoughtful and thought for a moment before he said slowly; "It's not that these widows haven't thought about it before, but my State of Yan is no better than the State of Zhao. Zhao Yong has a large number of elite cavalry, and he has surpassed the Hu people in the grassland. However, our country of Yan is different. It is impossible to imitate the pursuit of Hufu riding and shooting in the state of Zhao. Once the heavy chariots and infantry arrive at the grassland, they will have a hard time.

"What's more, we have been defending against Donghu for so many years. We have been used to their attack on our defense mode. We know almost nothing about our Yan on the grassland. How can we annex Hudi and collect Hu people?"

Su Qin showed a smile on his face and said, "This is the reason why I came to see the king today. I found a man. His name is Qin Kai. He is the son of Qin Ji, a doctor in the former dynasty of the State of Yan. When he was a child, he was a hostage in Donghu. Later, he won the trust of the King of Donghu. He was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, so he broke his heart to return to China and took Donghu as his home."

"It's a pity that this Qin Kai is so beautiful that he has an affair with the king of Donghu. After the defeat. Qin Kai fled back to the State of Yan overnight, and now he has defected to me. Qin Kai has lived in Donghu for more than 20 years. He knows the customs of the customs there. If he is a general, there must be a way to deal with Donghu.

Ji nodded and said happily, "Since it's really as you said, you might as well bring him tomorrow. I want to see him in person."

Su Qin said, "This is natural."

Ji Zhi couldn't wait to ask, "I don't know what Su Xiang said about the law of weak Qi, why?"

Su Qin tightened his face and said in a low voice, "Although this is difficult, it is not impossible. It is to disintegrate the State of Qi from the inside and make the princes of the world tired of the State of Qi. The king raised his arms and shouted, and the princes of the world gathered to respond to attack Qi together.

PS: The second volume. The first volume is mainly based on the activities of the State of Zhao, the prelude and process of the destruction of Zhongshan by King Wuling of Zhao, and the internal worries of the Chaotang of the State of Zhao. The second part is the beginning of the feudal princes and countries. The main line will be the court struggle of the State of Zhao, and it is also a period when the protagonist hides his light and bids his time.

In addition, I would like to explain the surnames of the Seven Kingdoms. The State of Qin is surnamed Zhao. For example, according to the saying at that time, the First Emperor should have been Zhao Zheng instead of Ying Zheng. This is recorded in the historical records. But everyone has been used to Ying Zheng instead of Zhao Zheng since he was a child. I'm afraid they won't get used to it if they suddenly change. Moreover, the State of Zhao is also surnamed Zhao, so in order to distinguish, I will still use "win" as the name of the King of Qin in the future, and I will not explain it in the future.

Both the State of Wei and the State of Yan in South Korea are both surnamed Ji, but the State of Yan is a family of the Zhou clan with eight views, so it is said that there is no surname. South Korea is Ji surnamed Han, and the State of Wei is Ji surnamed Wei, which is still the name of the family, such as Xinling Jun Wei Wuji. The State of Qi was surnamed Tian, and the State of Chu was surnamed Xiong. According to that time, it was still named after the family.
