After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 265 Crisis Appears
Yu Rang's words made Mengdi realize that he seemed to be wishful thinking. Now that the Han Kingdom is on the rise, everyone is focusing on how to strengthen the Han Kingdom. If someone feels close to him at this time, they will act recklessly.

Then such a person will lose the qualification to travel with Mengdi, and will instead become the source of turmoil in the Han Dynasty. Thinking of this, Mengdi no longer has the slightest hesitation in his heart, and he is very happy to praise and say.

"You're right. Under the current situation, it's time to make progress. If someone uses their minds where they shouldn't be used at this time, they will naturally be punished accordingly. By the way, it has always been Didn't I ask you what you want to do?"

Unexpectedly, Meng Di would ask such a question, Yu Rang was taken aback for a moment, then clasped his fists and said.

"As the lord's retainer, the subordinates are naturally willing to be dispatched by the lord. If what I do is beyond my ability, then I will definitely accept it. If possible, I am willing to lead the infantry Fight for the Lord."

This surprised Meng Di, but Yu Rang had already said it now, and he immediately agreed.

"It's not time for the infantry to go out yet. When the conquest of Jin is over, then you will stay in Feiyi and train the infantry here. If you do well, you can lead them into battle in the future."

Qi State Linzi.

After the envoy from the Han Kingdom arrived, because Marquis Qi was ill and could not see foreign ministers, Gao Zhang met him on his behalf. After the envoy left, Gao Zhang frowned deeply, because the matter was very simple, and the Han Kingdom wanted to attack Song. up.

To his surprise, Meng Di also invited Lu Guo and Zheng Guo to send troops together. After thinking about it, Gao Zhang went to see Guo Xia, because this happened too coincidentally. Been to Fei Yi.

After taking his seat in the study, Gao Zhang directly expressed his doubts.

"Tian Chang just went to Feiyi, and Meng Di just returned, and then Han sent an envoy, saying that he wanted to attack Song and united Lu and Zheng. Regarding this matter, Gao is Glad to see it happen.”

"Because Song State has now fallen to Jin State, I heard that they are planning to send troops to Cao State. Sending troops to Song State at this time can also deter other vassal states and let Qi State maintain its current prestige."

"It's just that, with Han's strength, it will definitely gain a large area of ​​Song's territory. This is definitely not a good thing for Qi, and this time Mengdi defeated the Jin army in Chaoge, but he didn't gain much strength. reduction."

"If this situation continues, the rise of South Korea may be unstoppable, but what should we do now to allow Qi to maintain its advantage?"

After Guo Xia heard these words, his face was also full of sorrow. He knew very well in his heart that although Qi Hou was sick in bed, he still couldn't forget the conquest of Jin. Devil.

If it is proposed to use troops against Han at this time, this is also unrealistic. Not only will the situation where Qi leads other vassal states disappear, but it will also give Jin a chance to breathe. In the end, Guoxia sighed and said.

"If Han is a wolf, then Jin is a tiger. If we go after the wolf, the tiger will wait for the opportunity to eat. The most important thing is that the relationship between Lu and Han is getting closer and closer. .”

"This time, if we prevent Han from uniting with Lu and Zheng to attack Song, then it is very likely that Lu and Zheng will feel dissatisfied. Especially if we start a war with Han, Lu's attitude is very important."

"Once the State of Lu completely falls to the State of Han, and at that time we send troops to attack the State of Han, the State of Lu will take our way. The so-called two evils are the lesser of two evils. Now we can only support the State of Han to annex the State of Song .”

"However, if the Han State takes over most of Song State's territory this time, then we can send people to meet the King of Wu and discuss a private alliance with them. Now the rapid development of the Han State has already posed a threat to the Wu State."

"But now that Wu's military strength is at its peak, if we join hands with them, Han will definitely not be able to resist fighting on two fronts. At that time, Han's weakness will be inevitable, and there will be a deadly enmity with Wu. "

After Gao Zhang heard this, his eyes lit up, and then he sighed deeply.

"The Tian family is now getting closer and closer to Han, which is probably not a good thing. It is a pity that we have been defeated twice in succession, which has been greatly discounted in Qihou's heart. If it is not because Qihou is seriously ill now, I am afraid that our You can't keep your position."

"If the Tian family is allowed to take advantage of the situation to rise at this time, it will be difficult to say what will happen to Qi in the future, but we don't have a suitable reason to attack the Tian family now. It is definitely not a good thing to continue like this."

As time went by, Guo Xia and Gao Zhang became more and more wary of Tian, ​​especially last time, when Tian Qi escorted grain and grass to the camp, although he seemed very respectful on the surface, what he said was taken Using Qihou as a cover.

Obviously this is to suppress slander behind the scenes, but judging from the current situation, the civil strife in Jin State is still going on, and the last time Mengdi defeated the Jin army under Chaoge City, this has already made the situation of Jin State precarious.

Thinking of this, Guo Xia clenched his fist tightly, and then suggested.

"At this point, we should ask the Marquis of Qi to fight and send troops to conquer the Jin Kingdom again. Although we were defeated the first two times and returned, Mengdi has gained a lot, especially the last time. Small."

"Zhao Jianzi fought repeatedly, and the army didn't get enough rest. This is a good time for us to defeat Jin. If we can successfully defeat Jin this time, then your position in Qi will be as stable as Mount Tai."

After Gao Zhang heard this, hesitation appeared on his face. Although he also had the same opinion in his heart, his confidence had been shaken by losing twice in a row, so he hesitated for a while.

Seeing Gao Zhang's appearance, Guoxia sighed in his heart. He lost his spirit before going to battle. This is not a good thing, but facing the situation before him, this is also the best choice. He is unwilling to give up just like that. So he said.

"If we don't take advantage of this time to wash away the previous humiliation, then if something happens to the Marquis of Qi, the Tian family's prestige in Qi will definitely increase. At that time, I am afraid that Qi will fall into turmoil, and even It is difficult to preserve the ancestral temple."
