The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 277 Since you guys are fighting, I will also fight
King Zhao Daoxiang also knew that King Xi of Yan was deliberately provoking him, but he was already preparing to turn against the State of Qin, so why should he be afraid of this?
Eat it first. Logically speaking, this was taken away by Yan State, and Zhao State took it back from Yan State. Let's argue with Qin State first to delay the war, and it won't matter once the war starts.

After everything was negotiated, everything seemed to have returned to the starting point. Pang Nuan returned to the capital, and the State of Yan quietly licked its wounds.

There is some debate about the ownership of the cities of Qin and Zhao.

After more than two months of war, the State of Yan ended up losing both face and substance.

Pang Nuan became famous throughout the world because of this great victory and his defeat and killing of Ju Xin.

Pang Nuan handed Ju Xin's body to Yan Dan and asked him to bury Ju Xin in Ji City, where the monarch he died for and the palace built for these talented people were once there.

Yan Dan agreed with a heavy heart.

But after returning to Ji City, the furious King Xi of Yan wanted to punish Ju Xin for his crimes and wanted to execute Ju Xin's entire family.

After the pleadings of Yan Chunjun, Yan Dan and many high-ranking officials, King Xi of Yan gave up the idea, but he also ordered that the Ju Xin people were no longer allowed to enter Ji City.

Yan Dan risked the anger of King Xi of Yan and secretly buried Ju Xin not far from the former Zhaoxiantai.

His risk was not in vain, as his action attracted many righteous men to pledge their loyalty.

The reputation of Prince Yan's virtue gradually spread, of course, with Yan Dan's help.

Yan Dan understood very well that reputation must be well managed.

When the news of Ju Xin's death in battle reached Xianyang, Zou Yan sat in silence for a whole day.

At his level, he has long since become indifferent to life and death, and there are really not many things that can cause his emotions to fluctuate.

But the news of Ju Xin's death still made him extremely depressed, and he could only bid farewell to him with strong liquor from afar.

One more old friend is gone. Who are the old friends left now?
While Yan was invading Zhao, the opportunity Ying Zheng had been waiting for had arrived, and he took the opportunity to attack Wei.

I've been prepared for this for a long time. If I don't add fuel to the fire, when will you unite?
Ying Zheng ordered Meng Ao to lead 50,000 elite troops to attack Wei!

For a time, the people of Wei were in panic.

The Wei State had no choice but to panic. Hedong, including part of Henei and the entire territory of the Sushui River Basin had all been swallowed up. Now the target was the Wei State's core base in the Central Plains.

In the current Wei State, the new king has just ascended the throne. The country has suffered a great disaster and has been severely damaged by years of war. After years of continuous attacks and bleeding by Ying Zheng, the country is extremely weak.

Meng Ao's advance was unstoppable. He captured more than ten cities in just one month. The entire Wei court was in chaos, and King Jingmin of Wei was in a panic.

Wasn't Lü Liao still negotiating peace with Qin? Why did Qin attack directly?

Lu Liao thought the same and hurriedly asked to see Ying Zheng, but Ying Zheng refused to see him.

Lü Liao hurried to see Lü Buwei again. Lü Buwei sneered, "We have been talking for so long, but you have been wasting time on trivial matters. You are totally insincere. The peace treaty has not been signed yet. Of course, the Qin can attack Wei."

Lu Liao begged desperately, but Lu Buwei would not say any more.

Lu Liao hurriedly sent people back to Wei, insisting that the king give a bottom line for the negotiations.

King Jingmin of Wei is now completely confused. What should he do in this situation?

The Qin army was too ferocious to resist and Yan and Zhao were fighting each other. In this situation, they didn't know who to turn to for help.

There is only Chu, but does Chu dare to stand up now? It depends on Wei and Chu. Does Chu dare to stand up for Wei?

The State of Chu dared not to disagree, but it was true that King Kaolie of Chu was annoyed.

When the King of Chu heard that the King of Wei had sent Lü Liao to Qin to seek peace, he was immediately stunned. How could King Anxi of Wei, a great ruler, give birth to such a thing?

You want to fight the Qin State, but you don’t dare to do so. You want to get everyone to fight together, okay, everyone agrees, but you still don’t dare to take the lead, and you want to instigate others to take the lead. When others don’t take the lead, you just surrender???
If there is something we can talk about, there is no need to make a decision so quickly, and there is no need to be so extreme.

But when King Kaolie of Chu was about to pull King Zhao together for another talk, even more disturbing news came: the State of Yan attacked Zhao again.

King Kaolie of Chu smashed the cup at that time. The bastard Yan State was just making trouble!
I sent you to negotiate an alliance, and it would have been fine if you didn't agree, but now you're dragging your feet?

After King Kaolie of Chu calmed down, he understood King Yan's idea and couldn't help but praise him in his heart. He thought the timing and plan were very well chosen. It seemed that Zhao had to suffer this loss.

King Kaolie of Chu pondered for a while. At this point, he could only wait for the outcome of the war between Yan and Zhao to be over before talking to Zhao. Now it seems that he has to take the lead, but he must drag Zhao along to take the lead.

If all losses occur, it is not considered a loss.

Then we received news that Qin was attacking Wei.

King Kaolie of Chu was completely numb.

Yes, it would not be easy for Qin and Wei to negotiate peace. How could the King of Qin not take advantage of the war between Yan and Zhao to attack Wei?

The Qin army was approaching, and no matter what the final result was, Wei would have to pay a heavy price.

Whether it is to directly conquer the land or to force Wei to make concessions in the peace treaty, both are the best options.

But King Kaolie of Chu was secretly delighted. This was a good thing. As Wei was being oppressed like this, its desire to attack Qin would only become stronger. Now that things had come to this, could Wei continue to endure it?

There is no need for Zhao Chu to take the lead in this case. No matter what, it is you, the Wei State, who should take the lead. We will help you fight the enemy and avenge you.

Besides, it's not enough for you to just take the lead. You should at least thank me for helping you so much.

Talking is one thing, asking for permission is another. This is a matter of principle.

Taking advantage of others' misfortune is a basic quality of a monarch.

Coincidentally, King Zhao Daoxiang thought the same. When he heard that King Wei wanted to seek peace with Qin, he was extremely speechless.

Your father died with his eyes open. Now you know why.

Although the State of Yan attacked Zhao, King Zhao Daoxiang was not worried except for being angry. As long as Qin and Wei did not help to attack Zhao, it would be easy to attack Yan. Even though Zhao was not having an easy time now, King Zhao Daoxiang really did not take the small State of Yan seriously.

After many major events and wars in recent years, King Zhao Daoxiang has developed some calmness and confidence.

All the battles between Yan and Zhao in the past twenty years have proved that Yan alone is no match for Zhao.

The gap is too big.

Whether in military system, armaments, morale, or even military branches, there is a huge gap.

After receiving the news that Qin was attacking Wei, his idea was the same as King Kaolie of Chu. Since you disagree, I will push you a little further. In such a crisis, can you really just sit there and wait for death?
Now we not only ask you to take the lead, but we also require you to give up more of the Hedong and Henei areas.

There was another thing that made him feel embarrassed.

The King of Qin sent an envoy to say that he had heard that Yan had invaded Zhao, and in order to prevent Zhao from being attacked from two sides, Qin was now attacking Wei to share the pressure on Zhao.
