"Tian Heng, the envoy of the State of Qi, pays homage to His Majesty the State of Wei."

Tian Heng's voice was loud and he bent down to bow to Emperor Wei.

In front of the main hall,

Emperor Wei's face darkened and he stared at Tian Heng coldly: "Do you, Qi State, still have the nerve to send people here?"

"Tell me! Why does the State of Qi want to capture my daughter? Is it possible that the State of Qi wants to go to war with the State of Wei?"

"boom!"

at last,

Emperor Wei slapped the shore with an angry palm.

Facing the question from Emperor Wei,

Tian Heng smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, may you have forgotten that it was your Wei State that took the initiative to make peace with Qi State."

"My emperor is just bringing the princess into the palace in advance, so that the marriage can be consummated on a good and auspicious day."

"When Qi and Wei form a good alliance with Qin and Jin, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

"And this time, I have brought you a betrothal gift specially prepared for His Majesty Wei."

Hearing the words about marriage and betrothal gift,

Emperor Wei's expression improved slightly.

after all,

This matter was first proposed by them.

only,

At that time, Wei Yaoxi ran away immediately after hearing this.

Therefore, the Wei envoy came to Qi just to raise this matter and wanted to ask the Qi emperor what he thought.

The result was unexpected,

My daughter can go to Qi.

As a result, it has now become a situation where a sheep falls into a tiger's mouth.

Although there was a slight error in the process, the result did not change.

He was still very happy to form an alliance with Qi.

And seeing that Qi Guo seemed sincere,

Emperor Wei also gave up the idea of ​​pursuing the case.

Just like flipping through a book,

In the blink of an eye,

Emperor Wei changed his face, and even the tone of his speech took a 180-degree turn.

"Emperor Qi, you're welcome."

"After we get married, you and I will become one family."

"I just don't know, the betrothal gift..."

Tian Heng took out a scroll from his arms, presented it to Emperor Wei with both hands, and then slowly opened the scroll.

Of course there is no dagger or anything like that inside;

When all the scrolls are opened,

There is a map drawn on it.

And it is a map based on the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Zhao.

In the east of Zhao State,

It even marked the location of the battle with Qi.

There are various arrows drawn on it,

The place where the battle took place was also painted with two crossed swords.

The map is drawn in such detail that even a layperson who doesn't understand it at all can clearly understand it.

"Emperor Wei, please take a look."

Tian Heng pointed to a place on the map: "My emperor is willing to use fifteen cities in three counties, including Wu'an, Zhongmu... and Handan, as a betrothal gift to marry His Highness the Princess."

Emperor Wei's face turned livid, and he was instantly furious: "How outrageous!"

"Is Qi Guo insulting me?"

"The land of these three counties belongs to the State of Zhao. Do you, the State of Qi, use this as a betrothal gift to make a fool of yourself?"

In anger,

Emperor Wei pulled up the map and twisted it into a ball.

Hitting the ground angrily.

Tian Heng's face was calm and he always maintained a calm attitude.

"Your Majesty Wei, please calm down."

Tian Heng smiled lightly and said: "Although these three counties are now the territory of Zhao State, they may not be so in the future."

"Now Zhao's main elite force is in Wucheng to confront Qi's army."

"The city of Handan is poorly defended and is less than three hundred miles away from the Wei State. As long as the Wei State is willing to lead an army and attack Handan from behind, then..."

Speaking of which,

Tian Heng looked at Emperor Wei with a sinister look in his eyes.

"At that time, the Zhao State cannot look after each other, and it will be defeated!"

"The Qi and Wei armies will seize the opportunity to pursue victory. Even if they cannot destroy the State of Zhao, they will severely damage the State of Zhao and make it no longer a threat."

After telling the plan,

Tian Heng asked: "Does Emperor Wei just want to see Wei Guo in peace and give up this great opportunity?"

Tian Heng’s last question:

It stabbed deeply into Emperor Wei's vitals.

in those days,

He ascended the throne for the first time.

High-spirited.

I also thought about leading the Wei State to conquer hundreds of battles in the south, expand its territory, and become a great leader.

but,

However, Wei State is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains.

Surrounded by powerful enemies.

Wei Guo may not be able to defend Chengdu, let alone expand externally.

And now,

The state of Qi rose in the east.

There is a strong tendency to devour the Zhao State.

It is already a certainty that his daughter will marry the Emperor of Qi.

By the time,

Qi and Wei became in-laws.

I can definitely hug this thigh.

Emperor Wei was moved.

If it can really annex Zhao State, Wei State's national power will definitely rise by more than one level.

"Prime Minister, what do you think?"

I don't know if he was too excited, but Emperor Wei's voice was trembling.

The Prime Minister stood up without speaking directly.

Instead, he picked up the map thrown away by Emperor Wei.

His eyes swept back and forth above it.

During this time,

Many generals from Wei State also came over and discussed with each other in low voices.

After a stick of incense,

The Prime Minister looked solemn and said: "Your Majesty, after discussion among the ministers, I think this plan... is feasible!"

"good!"

Emperor Wei stood up abruptly and drew the sword from his waist.

Tensile Point pointed at the Zhao area on the map, and shouted majestically: "Pass my decree, assemble the army immediately and prepare for war!"

"Send troops to Zhao!"

.......

Zhao State.

Handan City.

The Emperor of Zhao was in the imperial study room, discussing something with the important ministers of the court.

"What's the situation on the front line now? There are battle reports coming."

Zhao Xianglin shook his head: "We are still in a stalemate."

"But since Qi's reinforcements arrived, General Lian said that the pressure is too great now, and the Qi army's offensive is fierce."

"The defense line has been forced to retreat more than thirty miles."

Emperor Zhao cursed angrily: "Trash!"

"I gave him so many troops and horses, more than twice as many as Qi, but he was beaten back again and again?"

Lin Xianglin explained: "Your Majesty, the Qi army commander Wei Qing, Zhang Liao and Huo Qubing are all brave, resourceful and good at fighting."

"There is only one general in our army, General Lian. It is difficult for him to defeat four people with just two fists."

"fart!"

Emperor Zhao shouted angrily: "Where did the Qi Kingdom come from with so many brave and famous generals?"

"They're all excuses!"

"I gave him so many soldiers and horses, even a spit of saliva from one person can drown those few people."

"Tell Lian Po that the deadline is one month!"

"If you can't defeat the Qi army within a month, get out of here!"

Lin Xianglin was shocked and hurriedly advised: "Your Majesty, it is a taboo to change generals before the battle. You must not do it!"

Emperor Zhao snorted coldly: "Are you saying that we have to let him continue to shrink?"

"Tell me, how much food does Zhao still have? It's enough for him to waste!"

Lin Xianglin still wanted to explain.

But when the issue of food was mentioned, he still kept his mouth shut.

Since riding and shooting in Hufu,

The combat power of Zhao's army can be said to have skyrocketed.

But there has always been a problem that has always been plaguing Zhao Guo.

That's food.

Mainly because most of the land in the northern part of Zhao State is grassland.

Unable to farm.

In this half-farming and half-grazing environment, the food problem cannot be solved at all.

Now,

After such a long confrontation,

Zhao Guo's granary is about to bottom out.

If the war is not ended,

I’m afraid they will all be sold out before this fall.

Just when Lin Xianglin was thinking about how to break the situation,

A soldier hurried in and shouted: "Your Majesty is not well."

"The State of Wei has sent an army of 100,000 troops, heading towards Handan to kill!"
