Chapter 207 Compromise
The angrily roar of King Wei made the originally noisy inn quiet.
Everyone turned their heads and looked at King Wei.
It’s no wonder that King Wei is so angry.
The strength of Qin in recent years has made the King of Wei feel fear from the bottom of his heart. How could the King of Wei not be panicked when Qin sent Gan Luo to die in Daliang?
Not to mention the power of Qin, just the Gan family's prestige in Qin is enough to slightly influence the situation of Qin.
"Come, take down all these assassins, and kill them on the spot if there are any rebels!"
The King of Wei pointed at Lian Po and others and scolded him sternly.
In any case, the King of Wei must give Qin an explanation, otherwise he will be greeted with the thunderous anger of Qin.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Unexpectedly, Lian Po suddenly threw away Gan Luo's head and then laughed to the sky.
"why are you laughing!"
Seeing this, King Wei rebuked him.
Lian Po shook his head and said, "The king is the supreme king of Wei, but he is afraid of Qin like a tiger. Since this is the case, why not give up the country of Wei to Qin, so as to gain wealth for a lifetime, so as not to be destroyed by Qin one day, the country is destroyed, the family is destroyed, and the body and head are different!"
"How dare you speak nonsense in your mouth!"
Everyone present was furious. The generals of Wei, who were protecting the King of Wei, even pointed at Lian Po with their swords and scolded him loudly.
Lian Po was not afraid and sneered: "You know whether the King of Wei and you and others are afraid of Qin Ruhu, and you don't say much."
"The King of Wei wants to take me, but he is afraid of Qin's national strength and wants to please Qin with our lives."
"Clang!"
Speaking of this, Lian Po threw away the spear in his hand, stretched his neck and shouted: "Liang Po's head is here. If the King of Wei thinks that taking Lian Po's head can calm the anger of Qin, he can take it himself, Lian Po will never frown."
"Report!"
Just when the King of Wei was hesitating, a messenger suddenly came in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, the five major merchant families of Wei, transported food and grass from the King of Wei to the Zhao army in Changping."
"Report!"
"I don't know which general led the Wei army to attack Qin's baggage and burned the Qin army's food and grass for half a month. Qin general Meng Ao was furious and sent troops to attack Shanyang!"
When the King of Wei heard these two news, he was shocked and looked deserted.
First, the Qin envoy Gan Luo died in the Daliang Inn, then the Wei merchants transported food and grass to Zhao Jia. Then, the Wei army attacked the Qin army's food route, causing the Qin general Meng Ao to attack Wei Shanyang.
The news has pushed Wei to the forefront, and it is obvious that it is difficult for Qin and Wei to be kind.
"This is definitely what Zhao State does. I deliberately instigated the relationship between Wei and Qin. As long as I take you down, I will be able to resolve the past grudges with Qin State!"
But soon, the King of Wei reacted and looked at Lian Po with a gloomy face.
The reason why the King of Wei did this was not entirely because he was afraid of Qin, but because he was unwilling to be teased by Zhao, so he wanted to do the opposite.
"My king must not!"
Just when the King of Wei was furious and signaled to take down Lian Po and others, Wei Li stepped forward to plead for Lian Po.
"Not to mention the ambition of the Qin State, if you form an alliance with him, you will seek skin from a tiger. Sooner or later, you will suffer bad consequences. Even in the current situation, the relationship between Qin and Wei has deteriorated rapidly, even if the king presented Lian Po and others to Qin, it may not be able to improve the relationship between the two countries."
"Instead of offending Zhao for this, it is better to take this opportunity to join Zhao to attack Qin, and seize Qin's territory to expand the territory of Wei, just like the last time they joined forces to attack Qin!"
Wei Li was smart and knew what great principles he was talking about would definitely not listen to, so he simply tempted him for profit.
When the six kingdoms joined forces to attack Qin, Zhao Jia took the lead in capturing the land of Shen Qi, and the three kingdoms of Chu, Wei and Han also seized a lot of Qin territory and gained tangible benefits.
Wei Li mentioned that incident at this time, and wanted to arouse the King of Wei's greed.
When the King of Wei heard this, his face was slightly angry, but he still said hesitantly: "I have always dreamed of taking over Qin to broaden the Wei Kingdom. However, it is difficult for Qin to compete with him. If you rashly join Zhao to attack Qin, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not cause any trouble."
The King of Wei can clearly distinguish between Qin and Zhao and who is stronger and weak. The national strength accumulated by Zhao State through three generations of wise kings was not enough to compete with Qin, let alone Zhao State, which had experienced the great defeat in Changping.
If the Kanto countries jointly attack Qin, the Wei Congress will join without hesitation.
However, now that Yan and Zhao are fighting, it is obvious that it is impossible to join the Hezong army, and even South Korea may turn to Qin.
With Yan and Han as their younger brothers, even if the three alliances of Zhao, Chu and Qi were not opponents of Qin at all. It was because the King of Wei saw through this that he had to act cautiously.
It is no exaggeration to say that the current attitude of Wei State is related to the entire world.
No matter which side the State of Wei falls, it may become the last straw that will break the camel's back.
"Report!"
However, at this moment, a messenger suddenly came in panic. As soon as he entered the inn, he shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the State of Chu has raised 200,000 troops. From Chenyan Honggou River, he has besieged Changping and wants to attack Daliang directly!"
The Changping of Wei State does not refer to the Changping in South Korea. This Changping is located on the west bank of Honggou River, close to Chen, the former capital of Chu State.
"Why did Chu attack our Wei State for no reason!"
When the King of Wei heard the 200,000 Chu troops, he was so shocked that he was no longer looking at him and shouted.
"Wei wants to join Qin to attack Zhao, how could Chu sit idly?"
"Pingqi and his wife jointly wrote a letter to the King of Chu, asking the State of Chu to help Zhao attack Qin with the help of the whole country, and promised that as long as Zhao wins, they will help Chu to regain Nanjun."
"Wei Ruo insists on joining Qin to attack Zhao, and he must fight with Chu first, and hope the king will think twice!"
Lian Po took two steps forward and shouted loudly.
If the Chu State conquered Nanjun, it would almost cover the entire Yangtze River waters, and include Yunmengze, which produces fish and rice, and could even threaten the Qin State's production area Bashu.
Zhao Jia knew very well that an alliance without entanglement of interests would not last long. Therefore, when the alliance attacked Qin, while seizing profits, he did not forget to let the allies gain benefits.
Only in this way can the alliance become more and more stable.
When the King of Wei heard this, his face looked like earth.
Wei can bully Han, Yan and even Qi, but they have no confidence in facing the huge Chu.
What's more, due to the Zhao people's obstruction, there was a substantial conflict between Wei and Qin. Even if Lian Po and others were offered, it was difficult to guarantee that Qin would be forgiven.
Even if Qin has obtained the understanding, since Qin wants to do his best to deal with Zhao, he may not be able to divide his troops to help Wei resist Chu.
After the end of the Qin and Zhao wars, even if Qin wins, Wei will not gain any benefits. Instead, it will consume soldiers and countless money and food due to the war with Chu.
After figuring out the key, the King of Wei immediately shouted at the soldiers who were eyeing Lian Po and trying to come forward to capture Lian Po and others, "The veteran general Lian Po is a distinguished guest of Chu. How can you let you offend me? You shouldn't retreat quickly!"
The soldiers of Wei State looked at each other when they heard this, but they still retreated one after another.
