The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 173 The world is in chaos
On the day when Wei Yong urgently reported to the King of Wei, the Wei court, after a day of discussion, actively prepared for war and sent envoys to the Yan Alliance at full speed to ask Yan to prepare to send troops.

King Xi of Yan had already received news about Qin and Zhao's attack on Wei, and even about Zhao's intention to attack Yan.

Since King Xi of Yan received the message from Yan Dan, he had already believed 90% of the contents of the letter, but he still sent spies to confirm it again and again. At this time, the spies in Zhao had already brought news that the news of Qin and Zhao forming an alliance to attack Wei, and even that Zhao intended to attack Yan were all true. With the arrival of Wei's alliance envoy, the matter had been completely confirmed.

After confirming the truth of the matter, King Xi of Yan only took a few breaths to decide what the State of Yan should do.

Fuck him!

Attack Zhao!

Now we must unite with the State of Wei and strike first!
The hatred between Yan and Zhao has existed for a long time, and King Xi of Yan will never forget the humiliation he suffered in Zhao.

Moreover, the lips and teeth are interdependent, and Yan and Zhao have a deep hatred. King Xi of Yan understands this truth.

King Xi of Yan knew very well that no matter whether Zhao won or lost, he would attack Yan.

If they win, they will naturally take advantage of the situation to attack Yan State and gain more results. If they lose, they will naturally have to make up for the losses from Yan State.

Since Zhao was planning to attack Wei and then Yan, King Xi of Yan did not dare to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the two tigers. After all, he knew that Yan was not a ferocious tiger.

King Xi of Yan attached great importance to this matter and directly expressed his intention to form an alliance with Wei to attack Zhao.

At the same time, Yan Chunjun was immediately sent to organize an army of 200,000 to be ready for attack at any time.

King Xi of Yan also had his own little ideas. He would definitely fight, but definitely not now.

It would be most appropriate to wait until Wei and Zhao are in a mess, no matter both are badly defeated or Wei is on the verge of collapse, to take action.

Wouldn't it be more appropriate if the Zhao army advanced deep into the enemy territory, leaving the rear empty?
Now let Wei consume Zhao first.

So even though he had been prepared for a long time, King Xi of Yan remained inactive as he watched Wei, Qin and Zhao become enmeshed in a mess and ignored Wei's constant requests for help.

It was not until the State of Chu attacked the State of Wei that the State of Wei was already unable to hold on, and King Xi of Yan then brazenly sent troops to attack the State of Zhao.

The timing is perfect!
Part of the main force of the Zhao army was on guard against the Huns, while part went deep into Wei territory to fight fiercely with the Wei army, leaving the rear empty.

Even though they had some troops left to guard against the State of Yan, their numbers were far fewer than those of the State of Yan, and they suffered repeated defeats for a while.

King Yan was overjoyed. This was the first time he had gained an advantage over the State of Zhao. He could finally get back the face he had lost!

The Zhao army on the Wei front was also making slow progress. The deeper they went into Wei's hinterland, the more stubborn and fierce the Wei people's resistance became. For a time, Zhao's offensive momentum was repeatedly thwarted, and war broke out again in the rear!

The state of Wei suddenly became the state of Zhao!
Or add the State of Zhao!
At the same time, something even worse happened to the State of Zhao.

The Huns learned about the war in the Central Plains and seized the opportunity. They mobilized more than 200,000 wolf cavalrymen to invade Yanmen Pass. For a time, the entire northern border became a scene of war.

The crisis Li Mu encountered this time was much greater than in the past. He had no stable backup this time! Both food and reinforcements were gone!
Even their military strength is inferior to that of the Huns!

Now the world is in complete chaos!

Qin, Zhao, Wei, Yan, Chu, plus the Huns, there is war everywhere!
Wei and Zhao were the worst off, being attacked from three sides!
King Kaolie of Chu originally wanted to take advantage of the situation to get a piece of the pie, but he found that the situation was too wrong.

I originally just wanted to take advantage, but how come the world turned into chaos in an instant!
Weakening Wei is in the interests of Chu, but if Wei and Zhao are seriously injured, who will stop Qin?

Now it seems that the Qin State is also on the battlefield, but it can only be regarded as joining in the fun. If the Central Plains is severely damaged by chaos in the war, it will be making things difficult for the Qin State, which is absolutely not advisable!
However, King Kaolie of Chu did not dare to withdraw his troops. With the help of Yan State, Wei State had basically overcome the crisis. The most difficult situation now was Zhao State.

Zhao was now in danger. If Zhao was destroyed by mistake, Wei would take advantage of the situation and become stronger, which would not be in the interests of Chu. The threat from Wei was no less than that from Qin.

After much consideration, King Kaolie of Chu decided to continue attacking Wei. He had to help Zhao share the pressure, but he couldn't attack too hard. It would be best if he could gain some advantage.

The grasp of this scale made King Kaolie of Chu exhausted.

The Zhao State was in danger, and the whole court was in panic. How could things turn out like this!

Originally, the alliance with Qin should have made them invincible. They only wanted to gain some advantage by attacking Wei, but they did not want to destroy Wei.

Moreover, the State of Chu came to help. With this strength, it is possible to destroy the State of Wei. Logically, everything should go smoothly.

However, this war did not go smoothly from the beginning. Everyone seemed to be prepared, but this time even Qin's attack on Wei was not delayed at all. They started right away after the agreement was reached!

Even if the news leaks, it takes time to prepare in advance.

It’s developing too fast now!

It wasn't Wei that was destroyed, it seemed like it was Zhao!

The State of Zhao was so frightened that it tried every possible means to seek help from Qin and Chu, and even sent people to Qi and Han for help!

Ying Zheng watched the world in chaos with cold eyes, everything was under control!
The war lasted for four consecutive months, and both Wei and Zhao were severely damaged.

Wei and Zhao had never expected things to develop to this point.

To make matters worse, natural disasters caused severe droughts in many parts of Qin and the Three Jins!

Despite this natural disaster, Wei and Zhao had to fight with all their might.

The war has gotten out of control and it cannot be stopped just because someone wants to.

War is so cruel. You can start a war according to your own wishes, but once it starts, it will no longer develop as you wish.

The State of Zhao was attacked on three sides, with 200,000 wolf cavalrymen of the Xiongnu wreaking havoc in the northern border. Li Mu was short of soldiers, food, and backup, and he still had to find a way to stop the Xiongnu. He was completely overwhelmed.

Not only that, the other barbarians and Hu people saw that the Huns seemed to be advancing with great momentum and were ready to make a move. It seemed that the situation on Zhao's northern border was about to get worse.

The 200,000-strong army of the Yan State in the northeast was unstoppable. The Zhao army was defeated step by step and lost more than ten cities in a row before it could barely keep its balance. Now it is struggling to hold on.

The 150,000-strong army attacking Wei has now penetrated deep into Wei's heartland, and is entangled with the Wei army, unable to escape.

Moreover, the attack on Wei had not been going smoothly since the beginning, and now there were less than 100,000 combat-ready troops left.

Fortunately, the people of Zhao were brave and they showed ruthlessness in such a desperate situation. The three parties fought on the battlefield with a life-and-death attitude, and the situation did not collapse completely for a while.

But it is only one step away from collapse. There is a major disaster in the country and food is in short supply. Now there is war on all sides and there is nowhere to go even if one wants to buy food.

Now, relying solely on blood and energy to hold on is not a long-term solution.

Wei is not in a good situation either. Its current situation is no better than Zhao's.
