Within a few days, there seemed to be only one topic among the seven countries.
"Have you heard? Su Ye of the Yan Kingdom invited Gongshu Ban to the Yan Kingdom to create unprecedented weapons!"
"This Gongshu Pan is a world-famous craftsman. It is said that the weapons he makes can easily destroy a city!"
"How audacious! Is Yan State trying to challenge the bottom line of the Six Nations?"
"The six countries are not willing to be outdone. I heard that all countries are stepping up preparations for war and preparing to face Yan's provocation."
"It seems like the world is going to be unstable again."
This rumor was like a stone causing thousands of waves, spreading throughout the seven countries in just a few days.
Although no one knows what the rumored siege weapon is.
But fear still spreads rapidly.
Just as Wu Qi expected, it soon triggered panic and uneasiness among various countries.
Envoys from various countries rushed back to their home countries to deliver this shocking news.
When the emperors of the six kingdoms heard the news, they were all shocked and held emergency meetings to discuss countermeasures.
There were heated discussions about this matter in the courts of Chu, Qi, Zhao, Wei, Han, Qin and other places.
Wu Qi traveled among countries, taking the opportunity to make remarks, trying to lead this incident to war.
Chu Muxue even wrote books in the name of the Empress of Chu and sent messages to other countries.
Their intention was to promote an alliance to jointly attack the Yan State.
Under the organization of the Chu State, the kings of the six countries sent envoys to exchange letters.
They gathered together in the Chu State to discuss a joint strategy against the Yan State.
"The Yan State's move is undoubtedly to make one family dominate and dominate the seven countries!"
As the envoy of Chu State, Wu Qi was the first to speak up and pointed out the ambitions of Su Ye and Yan State.
"They are trying to use their strong military strength to force other countries to surrender and realize their hegemonic dream."
"Chu State firmly opposes this kind of behavior. We must stand up and safeguard the peace and stability of the seven countries."
Following Wu Qi's speech, envoys from other countries also echoed, expressing strong dissatisfaction with Yan's behavior.
"We can't sit back and watch Yan Guo be so wanton! We must find a way to stop them!"
The envoy of the State of Qin stood up, his face livid.
The messengers echoed one after another, and the atmosphere was tense.
The atmosphere of the banquet became passionate, and some small countries that had doubts did not dare to speak easily at this moment.
"We should immediately send envoys to Yan State to ask Yan State to explain this matter."
The Wei envoy suggested.
"Yes, we can't let the Yan country succeed. Even if they really develop a weapon for siege, we have to let them know that the six countries are not easy to mess with."
Another envoy from Zhao State echoed.
"The Yan Kingdom already has Su Ye who can threaten Jiuzhou, and with this siege weapon, I am afraid that the day of hegemony is imminent."
The Qi envoy, who knew Su Ye was powerful, calmly analyzed it and felt that war was inevitable.
Chu Muxue sat at the head of the conference table, her eyes blazing and a determined expression on her face.
She knew that this opportunity was rare.
If we can successfully guide the six countries to jointly fight against Yan, it will not only retaliate against the wilderness, but also enhance the status of Chu.
"Everyone, we are facing a critical moment now. We must unite to fight against Yan's aggression."
Chu Muxue's eyes were cold and she said firmly.
"Chu is willing to take the lead in launching an attack and defend the peace of the Seven Kingdoms to the death!"
Wu Qi said impassionedly, and envoys from other countries also echoed his words.
As they sang and harmonized, a war against the Yan Kingdom was quietly brewing.
The Imperial City of Yan State.
Su Ye is paying close attention to the intelligence from the outside world.
The rumors against Yan State in Chu State and other places did not escape his eyes, and a sneer appeared at the corner of Su Ye's mouth.
He knew in his heart that this was Chu Muxue and Wu Qi's attempt to provoke a war.
However, they seem to have overestimated their capabilities.
soon.
Under the active advocacy of the Chu State, the Six-Nation Alliance assembled an army of 400,000.
Including 100,000 elite cavalry, 200,000 infantry, and 100,000 archers.
They were led by the State of Chu, and other countries such as Wei, Qi, Zhao, Han, and Qin responded one after another.
Together they issued a declaration of war to the State of Yan.
Arriving with the War Book, 400,000 troops arrived at the border city of Yan Kingdom.
The surging coalition force of 400,000 troops was hit with an overwhelming sense of oppression and strong murderous intent.
War drums beat and horses' hooves pound.
Under the border city of Yan State, the six-nation coalition forces had clear flags and neat lineups, showing their strong military strength.
The momentum is like a rainbow and full of fighting spirit.
Chu Muxue, the empress of Chu State, personally took command and led the coalition forces with high spirits and firm determination to fight decisively.
Thinking that he had a chance to win, a smile appeared on his lips.
She waved her arm, and her deafening shouts resounded across the border of Yan State:
"Hand over Su Ye and the siege weapons, otherwise, today will be the end of the Yan Kingdom!"
Once the letter of war was delivered, the whole country of Yan was in an uproar.
What a concept an army of 400,000 is!
A small country can be swept away and flattened without leaving a trace.
Not to mention the Yan State, which had just emerged from the quagmire of war.
Su Ye sat on the throne, his face as gloomy as water.
She never expected that Chu Muxue and others would actually dare to launch a war, and on such a large scale.
If you want to incriminate yourself, why bother?
For a so-called siege weapon that did not exist, they did not hesitate to force each other with war!
Yan Lichu was angry, but he also knew it.
No country in Kyushu can withstand the impact of an army of 400,000.
If a war breaks out with the six countries, the consequences may be disastrous.
In the court, all the officials were even more frightened.
I am afraid that I will become a minister who will subjugate the country.
They all advised and advocated a peaceful solution to the crisis.
"Your Majesty, Dayan's strength has not yet been restored at this time. If it goes to war with the six countries, it may fall into a situation of eternal disaster."
"Yes, Your Majesty, the six-nation coalition is so powerful that it may be difficult for the border defenders of Yan to resist."
However, there are also generals who would rather die than surrender:
"What an alliance of six nations is, it's nothing more than a mob! What should we, the warriors of the Yan Kingdom, fear?"
"Your Majesty, let us fight them and defend our dignity, Dayan, to the death!"
"Fight to the death!"
The ministers debated endlessly, and everyone had their own considerations.
At this time, a discordant voice interrupted everyone's debate:
"Isn't it Su Ye that the Six Nations want? If we hand over him alone, we can avoid the outbreak of a war. Why should we, the Yan State, pay such a huge price?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the court.
I don’t agree, but the person who has this idea is by no means the only one who has spoken out.
Yes, Su Ye is not from Yan country.
One person exchanges for 400,000 troops to retreat, which is a good deal no matter how you look at it.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Su Ye, the person requested by the Six Nations Allied Forces.
Even Yan Lichu couldn't help but look at Su Ye.
Be the focus of all eyes.
Su Ye, on the other hand, stood tall and distinguished in white clothes.
He looked calm and showed no fear.
