The armies of Qin and Wei marched together, with more than 10,000 people, connected to the sky. Hundreds of thousands of Qin and Wei walked out of Hangu Pass. It took ten months to march the army alone.
When they set foot on the land of Guandong, countless Qin people felt a kind of freedom.
Uncle Qin met Wei Qing of Jin State. For this person who betrayed Duke Jin, Uncle Qin despised him from the bottom of his heart.
But there was a warm smile on his face as he said: "Wei Qing, look at the swaying pines and cypresses all over the mountain, they must have witnessed your loyalty to the emperor.
When you see the emperor, Wei Qing must be respectful. I believe the emperor will be happy to make you a prince.
I will also call you Marquis of Wei when the time comes. "
This sounds like a compliment, but it is actually a mockery. The princes and ministers are not qualified to be loyal to the emperor. When the princes face the emperor, they call themselves ministers, and the princes and ministers can only be called foreign ministers.
But Wei Qing didn't hear it because it was too obscure. He only heard the sound of "Marquis Wei", which made him feel comfortable.
From ancient times to the present, the pursuit of fame has never stopped.
The gift of Nine Tins and the position of Fang Bo, these false names attracted all the kings throughout the Spring and Autumn Period, and the honor of turning a family into a country was also engraved in everyone's blood.
Wei Qing suppressed his excitement and smiled reservedly: "If we can turn our family into a country, an unbreakable alliance will be formed between Wei and Qin. The friendship between the Wei family and Qin will be witnessed by Haotian."
Wei Qing did not dare to mention King Su, because he always felt that King Su was really looking at this place.
What Wei Qing didn't expect was that the Han family also had secrets among the Wei family. The Qin and Wei allied forces had just left Hangu and not far away, but the Han family had already received the news.
The moment Han Cheng saw the news, his vision went dark, he threw the bamboo slips directly on the ground, stepped on them hard, and said in a hateful voice: "The Wei family betrayed, how shameless!
Isn't there any loyalty in his heart? "
Han Cheng was not acting, he was really angry.
It's just that he is not angry at Wei Qing for betraying the Duke of Jin. Anyway, in the Jin Kingdom, all the Qing clans seem to be in harmony with each other, and the political power is just trying to maintain.
What made him angry was that Wei Qing could obviously contact the Zhao family and the Han family to force the Jin Dynasty to abdicate and divide the Jin country equally, but he chose to go solo.
He even wanted to kill the Han family and reap all the benefits!
"Master, the Wei family wants to annihilate us with the Qin people, and then occupy our Han family's territory, so as to encircle the Luo army above the Zheng state with the Chu state."
The Han family's territory separates the Wei family's territory from Wang Ji's land, and the Han family's territory has a very good geographical location for the current war.
Not only does it cover both sides of Wang Ji, but it can also attack Zheng from three directions. Now the Luo army is on Zheng's land!
Han Cheng understood why Qin and Wei were targeting him. The ordinary man was not guilty, but he was guilty of possessing the jade. The Han family's fiefdom was so critical and he had no power to protect it. This was an inevitable end.
"Such a treacherous minister will not end well."
Han Cheng pondered for a moment and said urgently: "Immediately withdraw all the troops who are confronting the Chu people, as well as the soldiers who captured Wang Ji.
In preparation for the great gift, I am going to contact the Zhao family and block the Qin and Wei forces. "
The retainer asked strangely: "Master, won't you inform the monarch?"
Han Cheng sighed: "The Wei family's betrayal is putting the Han family and the Zhao family on the same fire.
The public office is already disloyal to the Qing clan and will not believe us. Let's wait for the Wei family to deal a cruel blow to the public office and then show the Han family's loyalty. "
"Master, what if the Wei family doesn't do anything cruel to the family?"
Han Cheng glared fiercely, "He didn't do anything? The king suddenly died suddenly. It wasn't Wei Qing, the traitor, who did it. Could it be that I, the loyal minister of Jin, did it?"
Having already reached this point, Han Cheng could still dig a hole for the public office and the Wei family. He was truly worthy of being a minister of the Jin Kingdom with full skills in internal fighting.
The Han and Zhao families are close to each other, so Han Cheng soon met Zhao Yong, the head of the Zhao family. Among the three ministers of the Jin Dynasty, the Wei family and the Zhao family were the strongest, and the Han family was the weakest.
Han Cheng explained the current situation to him, and specifically pointed out that Wei Qing had completely colluded with Qin, and he didn't know how many benefits he had gained.
Zhao Yong's reaction was almost exactly the same as Han Cheng's. He cursed fiercely at Wei Qing. This was not only his true thoughts, but also an attitude of alliance to Han Cheng.
The two looked at each other and instantly understood what the other wanted to do.
Han Cheng pondered: "I haven't found out what benefits Qin State gave to the Wei family specifically, but Qin State promised to support the Wei family in transforming the family into a country. This was one of the main reasons for Wei Qing's betrayal.
Our two families will not be able to get the benefits of Qin, but the Wei family wants to turn their family into a country, so this is a good idea.
After the Wei family's betrayal, our two families combined to form most of the Jin Kingdom.
Now the royal family and the Luo Kingdom need to rely on us. The Luo Kingdom will definitely recognize it with their noses pinched and get the endorsement of the Luo Kingdom. This is the true transformation of a family into a country.
It's so ridiculous that Wei Qing failed to see this through all his calculations. "
Han Cheng and Zhao Yong both knew that even if they were traitors, they would have to be on a first-come, first-served basis.
If you come too late, you will not be a traitor, but you will be the traitor's younger brother.
Faced with a life and death crisis, why didn't the Han family seek refuge with Qin or Chu?
It's a very simple reason. If the Jin State is not divided, the Han family is inferior to the Wei family. If the Jin State is divided, the Han family is still inferior to the Wei family. So isn't the division of the Jin State in vain?
Of course Han Cheng was unwilling, so he would not join Qin Chu's camp, but join Luo's camp, and bring the Zhao family with him.
He was indeed smart, knowing that Luo and Qi had been waiting for Jin's army, so he would definitely accept the surrender of Han and Zhao.
The Zhao family quickly reached a consensus with the Han family. Since the Wei family is unkind, don't blame our two families for messing with you. The fiefdoms of the Han family and the Zhao family happen to be connected in a line.
Didn't Qin and Wei just want to pass through Han's land, and then raid Xinzheng City through the road between Wangji's valleys?
dream!
When the armies of Qin and Wei wanted to besiege the Han family, they found that the Han family had no intention of fighting them at all. They didn't even want to abandon their hometown, and actually retreated directly to Wang Ji with their troops.
Judging from the marching route, they wanted to go north from Wang Ji to join the Zhao family. Now Wei Qing was a little anxious, "I actually let the Han family run away, what should I do now?
The strength of the Zhao family should not be underestimated. Coupled with the Han family, there is no problem in pulling out an army of more than 200,000. The Han family has many skilled craftsmen and strong bows and crossbows. When the two are combined, they are not an easy opponent. .
If they unite with the public office, and then unite with the Xiaoqing clan in the Jin Kingdom, they will have an army of more than 300,000. By then, Uncle Qin will probably return to the west of Weihan. "
Wei Qing was still not as smart as Han Cheng. Even in this situation, Han knew that he couldn't go to the joint office, but he couldn't see it.
Uncle Qin pondered for a moment and said, "Wei Qing, it's better not to do one thing and two things to stop.
If he directly creates a chaos in Yicheng, maybe Jin Gong will die directly in the chaos? "
Wei Qing hesitated and said: "Died? There are many guards around Duke Jin."
Uncle Qin sighed: "How arrogant are the rebellious ministers and traitors?
The Zhao family and the Han family are evil people at first glance. Their power in Yicheng is so strong, maybe they will directly attack and kill the Duke of Jin?
Wei Qing, perhaps you should lead an army to Yicheng to protect Duke Jin from harm. "
As rituals and music collapsed, there were too many regicides in various countries, so the techniques of regicide by courtiers became more and more varied.
From the initial blatant regicide to various accidental deaths, the previous Qi Marquis Lu Jing killed the Qing clan, which eventually led to the mysterious death of several monarchs. The history books do not know who should record the regicide.
The killing of the Jin Guild caused a complete explosion in the entire Jin Kingdom. Not only the three major clans, but also other officials and scholars who were loyal to the government would be in chaos in an instant.
This is very important to Qin and Wei. It can distract the Jin State from attacking the Wei family, weaken the speed of the unification of Han and Zhao, and allow Qin and Wei to quickly pass through the Han family's territory, and can quickly defeat the Chu State's army against the Luo State. Complete the encirclement.
Before Yicheng discovered that the Wei family had allowed the Qin army to enter the pass, Wei Qing began to send people to create a coup in Yicheng.
At the same time, the Han and Zhao families began to cause trouble in Yicheng, preparing to blame the Wei family for this matter.
At the same time, the Qin and Wei armies pursued the Han family, and finally began to confront the Han and Zhao armies in the northwest of Wangji.
The powerful army of the Jin State is known to all the world. In the era of respecting the king and fighting the barbarians, the Xia Dynasty once had the reputation of being in danger because of the Jin army. But when it appeared again in front of the Xia countries, it was a civil war within the Jin State. This is unacceptable. Not saying it is a very darkly humorous thing.
Wei Qing knew what Han Zhao was thinking, and Han Zhao also knew what Wei Qing was thinking, so both sides didn't waste any time and arranged directly according to the direction of the mountains.
At the same time, in Yicheng, the chaos caused by the three largest Qing clans quickly spread to the whole city. The remaining power of the government was actually able to avoid this chaos. After all, the three largest Qing clans The armies of Jin State were all facing each other in the south.
But no one would have thought that the three major ministerial clans in the country would suddenly turn against each other at the same time and wanted to put Duke Jin to death, or in other words, to clear out the entire Jin Dynasty's public offices.
The Wei family wanted to cause chaos in the Jin state, and Han and Zhao wanted to get the reputation of the Wei family for causing trouble, and then sold the Wei family at a good price to ask for credit from the emperor and the Luo state.
While Han Cheng and Zhao Yong were doing this, they sent envoys to report to Luohou, informing him of Wei's betrayal and the Qin army entering the pass, with two to three hundred thousand troops.
The Wei family also sent partial troops to Yicheng, which might harm the Duke of Jin. Jin would definitely be in chaos. The Duke now no longer has the ability to support the coalition forces on the battlefield of Zheng.
Now the Han and Zhao families are confronting the Wei family of Qin in the west and north of Wangji. The Qin people are powerful, and Han and Zhao are also unable to support Zheng on the battlefield.
The situation in Wang Ji's west was made very tense in just a few words, and the importance of the Han family and the Zhao family became apparent on the page.
