Qin Shi Mingyue's infinite punch card

Chapter 204 Ying Zheng's Intimidation Tactics

In the great battle at Hangu Pass, all five countries were severely injured, and the one that benefited the most was Qin, which not only wiped out a large number of soldiers and horses of the other side, but also allowed several countries to cede land and pay compensation, which can be described as unparalleled in power.

In addition, Qi Guo is also full of rejoicing. Fortunately, he didn't get involved, otherwise he might end up in a miserable end now.

Of the six kingdoms in Shandong today, only it has retained more power, and even faintly overwhelmed Chu and Zhao.Although it can't be the number one, it seems to be pretty good to be the second child.

He didn't take part in the just-concluded Five Kingdoms Conquest against Qin, and his hands were a little itchy to watch others fight, but then he became more interested, mobilized a large number of soldiers and horses, and excitedly wanted to find someone to fight.

However, its goal is not Qin State, but Yan State in the north.

There is also a feud between Qi and Yan, and there has been constant friction since a hundred years ago.During the period of King Xuan of Qi, he sent Kuangzhang to lead the army, and it took only [-] days to break through the Kingdom of Yan. Even King Yan was killed, and the regime was once destroyed.

Afterwards, King Yanzhao recovered the country of Yan, and joined forces with Su Qin to stage a drama of the five kingdoms attacking Qi, almost capturing Qi.It was also from that time that Qi State lost its hegemony.

Although many years have passed, the conflict between the two countries is still very intense.

But now that the country of Yan has been hit hard, isn't it a good time to do it?
Therefore, after learning that the Qin Yan army was almost wiped out, Qi State did not hesitate at all, and directly ordered the general to lead an army of 20, and ruthlessly entered the territory of Yan State.

King Yan's face turned pale with shock. It was really a leak in the house and it was raining overnight, so he immediately held a court meeting to discuss countermeasures.

Then quickly dispatched troops and generals, sending [-] troops to stop the Qi army.

Just fought a losing battle, in addition to the necessary defense, 10 horses are already the limit that can be produced.

However, the strength of Yan State is not as good as that of Qi State, and now the gap between the two sides is naturally greater, and they have been beaten back and forth.We can only rely on the pass to resist temporarily.

Yan Wangxi hurriedly asked other countries for help, but at this time other countries are closely guarding Qin's movements, for fear that the other party will call, how can they have the time to meet these things regularly?
And just when King Yan was full of anxiety, a piece of worse news came.

The Huns in northern Xinjiang are aggressively invading, and the troops stationed at the border are almost unable to stop them!

Yan State is originally a weak country, none of the [-] troops that went to Qin State before, and now the remaining troops have been transferred to resist Qi State, so there is really no more troops to guard the border.

The Huns must have known about this, so they dared to invade so blatantly.

The situation was critical, and Yan was attacked from two sides, and there was no reinforcements.If it is not handled well, it is likely to be in danger of destroying the country.

In this case, there is no better way, but to seek peace with Qi, and they are willing to cede the land as long as they can retreat.

And Qi Guo also knew about Yan Guo's plight, but he didn't make trouble, but agreed to the other party's request.

Although the two countries have always been at odds, it is still a matter within the circle. If a foreign race wants to get involved, the Seven Kingdoms will not agree.

Even if Yan Guo is unhappy, he cannot tolerate the land of Kyushu being occupied by the Huns.

And this is also an unspoken rule followed by various countries during the Warring States Period. Even if you have a dog's brain on your own side, you can't be taken advantage of by outsiders.

Of course, righteousness belongs to righteousness, and the benefits that should be obtained are still indispensable. Since the other party took the initiative to seek peace, Qi Guo would naturally not be polite.

In the end, in desperation, Yan State ceded one-third of the land and asked Qi State to withdraw its troops.

Afterwards, all troops were immediately transferred to northern Xinjiang to resist the Huns' attack.

It's just that this time the Xiongnu came aggressively, gathering many tribes, and assembled a force of [-] troops, and there were many cavalry among them, and the momentum was very fierce.

After many battles and long-distance raids in Yan State, the soldiers were also exhausted, and only about [-] soldiers and horses could be mobilized.

In this situation, when confronting the Huns, they fell into a disadvantage...

At this time, Ye Chen also followed Yingzheng's carriage to Xianyang, the capital of Qin.

The frame passed by on the bustling street, Ye Chen lifted the curtain and looked at the scene outside.

I saw pedestrians passing by on the road, there were many stalls on both sides, and various shouts came.In addition, there are quite a few inns and restaurants where passers-by can rest.

This is his first time in Xianyang, and the feeling here is a bit different from other places.

Linzi and Sanghai in the Qi State are also prosperous and prosperous cities, but compared with Xianyang, they lack one special thing, that is strict order.

In Xianyang City, both the vendors on the street and the pedestrians on the road obeyed their respective rules, and soldiers patrolled back and forth from time to time to maintain proper discipline.

Although many people say that the Qin State has strict punishments and strict laws, in Ye Chen's view, as long as it does not go too far, strict laws are not necessarily a bad thing, especially in such war years.

It is undeniable that during the rise of the Qin State, the people did bear a lot of pressure, but even so, their living conditions are still better than those of the other six countries, at least in terms of security.

At this moment, Ying Zheng, who was also sitting in the carriage, asked, "Mr. Ye is here for the first time, how do you feel?"

Ye Chen smiled and said: "Xianyang City is clean and orderly, and the people perform their duties, which is indeed very good."

Ying Zheng laughed and said, "Since Mr. likes this place, you must spend more time. I still have a lot of things to ask face to face."

"As long as the king doesn't think I'm an eyesore, that's fine."

Ye Chen replied.

Ying Zheng chuckled twice: "Mr. Ye was joking, it's too late for you to keep the widow happy. Also, the widow is older than you. If you don't mind, just call him brother."

Ye Chen didn't refuse either, and nodded in response.

Then he continued: "I heard that Han, Zhao and other countries have ceded a lot of land recently, and now Qin's territory may have expanded a lot."

Hearing this, Ying Zheng snorted softly: "Since you dare to take the initiative to attack Qin, you will naturally have to pay the price. Land cession and compensation are just the beginning."

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then if they don't want to cede the land, Brother Zheng will really send troops to attack?"

Hearing the question, Yingzheng's expression changed, he shook his head and said, "In the battle of Hangu Pass, Daqin's damage was not small. If there is an emergency, maybe the five countries will join hands to fight for their lives. All I want to see.

Wouldn't it be better to let them take the initiative to donate the city after intimidating them like they are now? "
