After Mr. Che You's explanation, everyone roughly understood the ins and outs of the problem. They understood that Qin had captured Han and Wei was unconvinced. With a gamble mentality, they cleverly set up an ambush and hit the enemy with one blow. They defeated Han's army and fell back into Wei's territory.

, completely took the initiative in the situation. There is no point in any struggle now. The top priority is to satisfy the Qin people's requests, send the gods out of the country as soon as possible, and mend the fence themselves.

Wei Qi told Xu Jia and Duan Ziqian that tomorrow they can act according to the plan set by Mr. Che You. The two of them were humble to each other and let each other take the lead and themselves as assistants. Wei Qi said: "Second ministers, please don't fight. Although Duan Zi is a guest of yours, the doctor is the right one."

The officials in Wei, headed by Dr. Xu Jia, are the etiquette! As long as they negotiate peace with Qin, Duanzi and Yan can't change it. I hope Duanzi will do his best, and the officials can take charge!" Wei Qi set the tone, and the others followed suit.

No more words were said and everyone went home.

Lord Xinling said to Wei Qi: "I have dedicated eight cities, and now I have to offer them again. What should I do?"

Wei Qi shook his head and sighed: "We have been in the city of Nanyang for more than ten years, and we must have come out from here. The land of Nanyang is thin, the people are few, and the lands of various countries are intertwined, so it is okay to abandon it! I should return to the palace and plan for it.

With the king, you can get the truth."

Lord Xinling said: "Yin general Qincheng promised Hancheng, which one?... There are no other six ears here, I would like to hear the truth!"

Wei Qidao: "Young Master asked this question to clarify his situation! As the Young Master wanted, the palace discussed that if Qin's land is given to Han, if Qin wins, there will be no loss, and if Han wins, there will be gains. If the two countries fight, Wei will gain.

.How could I have known that Qin had completely wiped out the Korean army and invaded Wei! We have lost so much! How can we regret it!"

Lord Xinling said: "I deeply hate that the country is not strong and the people are not rich, so every time I cede territory to ask for peace!"

Wei Qidao said: "Since Wei moved to Daliang, the land of Jin has been completely lost. In Hexi, Wu Zi has rejected Qin; Anyi, the homeland of Wei, has been completely lost to Qin. What else can be said!"

Lord Xinling raised his finger to the sky and swore: "I will restore the old things and revive the rivers and mountains!"

Wei Qi said: "I wish you all the same! Please come to the palace to see the king to determine the city!" Lord Xinling bowed and said, "Thank you so much, Qi Qing!"

Not long after sending Wei Qi away, Mang Mao came back and said to Lord Xinling: "Mr. Che is aloof and arrogant, and he is very unyielding. I hope you will not blame me!"

Lord Xinling said: "It's a blessing to be taught by wise men, so why should I be surprised!"

Mang Mao said: "Young Master's power is extraordinary!"

Lord Xinling said: "In the past, Wenhou's teachers Bu Zixia, Tian Zifang, Duan Qianmu, ministers Wu Qi, Li Kui, Ximen Bao, Leyang, because the country was strong and the people were rich, they expanded the land of Zhongshan and Hexi.

.However, today the land is so vast and the people are numerous. The country is not strong but the people are not attached to it. It has been repeatedly defeated in battles. Unless it is alone, it cannot open up new territories and expand its territory, and the land of our ancestors will also be abandoned!"

Mang Mao said: "At this time, there is momentum. With the rise of Marquis Wen, the wilderness will be barren and the people will be wild. The country will be strong and the people will be rich by pioneering the wilderness and gathering the people. Therefore, Li Zi has the teaching of using the power of the earth. Wu Zi

There are military soldiers. After a hundred years, the princes conquered, and the country of thousands of vehicles no longer existed. The remaining ones were all countries of ten thousand vehicles. The land was used to its fullest extent, and no good people were left in the wild. If you gain in the east, you will lose in the west. If you use the south, you will lose in the north.

In the past, the king of Yan paid great attention to Guo and Wei, attracted the talents of the world, and destroyed Qi in ten days. What is the situation now? Managing a big country is like cooking a small delicacy, do not be impatient and impatient.

Lord Xinling said: "The words of the Duke are true to gold and jade! But I am puzzled, how can Qin be able to dominate the world with its tiger and wolf posture? Take Wei's Hexi and Anyi, pull out Chu's Ying, expand the territory to Shu, and open up

The land is in the west, but Wei is alone?"

Mang Mao said: "It's great. This is your question! Since the time of Lord Shang, Qin has focused on farming and fighting, which coincides with Li Zi's teaching of using the earth's strength, and the whole country has Wu Zi's well-trained soldiers. If you fight with it, you will win, if you keep it, you will be strong."

, good things come true!"

Lord Xinling said: "Li Zi's teachings and Wu Zi's soldiers were first advocated by Wei and Wei. How can they not be as good as those who came after Qin?"

Mang Mao said: "Young master, don't worry. Wei is not as good as it is, but there is still something left to be done. Li Zi taught us to use all the power of the land, and today we are still preparing for hunting. The people do not work on the fields but do their best to use wealth. This is like this; Wu Zi taught us to practice

Today there are only 50,000 military soldiers, and there are still many old and sick people. What is it? Times are different. Those who work hard in the fields will not have enough to eat all year round, while merchants and merchants all over the world are clothed in brocade. How can the land's strength be exhausted! Old diseases cannot be eliminated, so how can we train soldiers?

Is there any question? Can the young master give up his wealth, eliminate the old and the weak, and serve Qin?"

Lord Xinling said: "I can't! Then how can we strengthen our Wei and enrich our country?"

Mang Mao said: "Young master, have you heard what the political leaders say about Wei?"

Lord Xinling said: "I haven't heard of it yet!"

Mang Mao said: "When we talk about the union of Wei, we say that the place is thousands of miles away. Although the name of the place is small, there was no place to graze cows and horses in the countryside. There were so many people, so many chariots and horses, that they traveled day and night without stopping.

It is different from the three armies and is no worse than Chu. But how can it attack Qin from the west and call it Dongfan? When talking about the Lianheng of Wei, it means that the territory of Wei is not more than a thousand miles away, and the number of soldiers killed is not more than 300,000. The princes are connected in all directions, and there are no

There are famous mountains and rivers blocking the way. From Zheng to Liang, it is only a hundred miles; from Chen to Liang, it is more than two hundred miles. This is the so-called way of fragmentation. It is better to serve Qin. What do you think, Master?"

Lord Xinling said: "Everything you say is true, but what is the plan?"

Mang Mao said: "The small number cannot defeat the masses, and the weak cannot defeat the strong. If Wei gets strong support, it will be as strong as Chu; if Wei loses strong support, it will fall apart. It is inevitable!"

Lord Xinling said: "What the public said, is it in Lianheng?"

Mang Mao said: "The Qin Dynasty has tigers and wolves, and no faith. However, the soldiers are well-trained and well-fed, and they fight tirelessly but are not tired. These foolish men in the mountains cannot be treated with courtesy, but they can only be treated."

Lord Xinling said: "There are tigers and wolves on the side, but only the general can do it, others can't do anything!"

Seeing that he failed to convince Lord Xinling, Mang Mao was a little disappointed and said: "There are tigers and wolves on the side. If we can't kill them, we will chase them away. I hope you will watch them!"

The two of them didn't talk to each other and just chatted a few words. Mang Mao said: "Young Master is far away from work, so you can go back home for a while. If anything happens, I will come to report it."

When Lord Xinling saw Mang Mao urging him to leave, he couldn't refuse. He had hardly slept since he came back from Qifeng yesterday, and he was indeed very sleepy, so he returned with polite greetings with Zhang Yu and three others.

The gentlemen sat in the mansion for a whole day with nothing else going on. When Lord Xinling came back, they got up to greet him. Lord Xinling asked Mr. Zhongyue to inform everyone about today's situation. Mr. Zhongyue described what happened today very neutrally.

incident, especially the plot about the Qin people taking the opportunity to blackmail. After hearing this, all the gentlemen were indignant, but they could not find any other way to solve the problem. They cursed "Qin people are the most meaningless" and left it alone. I believe

Lord Ling was very disappointed, but he couldn't show it on his face. He told all the gentlemen about their hard work and asked them to go home and rest. Then he asked Mr. Guo about the developments on the front line today.

Mr. Guo said that there was no movement on the front line, and neither armies were mobilized. They only set up forts and dug ditches around their camps as a defense. Putian City and Putiancang City were not attacked, but some people saw the Qin people building siege equipment.

, it may be preparations for attacking the city, or it may be just a threat.

The Qin people had no horses, so the ships carrying heavy supplies were gathered by the Qin people inside and outside Putian City. The Qin people's camps were stacked one on top of another, and there were no one who knew how many people there were.

Lord Xinling didn't get any information worthy of attention, so he thanked Mr. Guo for his hard work, and Mr. Guo also left.

Lord Xinling walked into the back house and turned to the side into a side room, where Xiaonu and Gai Nie lived.

After the two returned to Daliang, they were escorted into Prince Wei's Mansion. Lord Xinling had told the family in advance that he would be useful to the family. The family elder was very surprised because Lord Xinling had never been close to a woman when he was at home, so why did he fall outside? Are you flirting with women? After looking at this woman, she is definitely not better than the concubine in the house. She also has a child. Is there something fishy about this child? The elder scratched his head. Mr. Xinling personally assigned him, so naturally he cannot treat this mother and son. He was sent to the servant's residence; it was obvious that he was not a matchmaker and could not be placed in the main house, so he cleaned out a wing in the back house for the two of them to stay temporarily. Lord Xinling saw it and did not raise any objection, so he acquiesced. But what surprised the elders was that during the two days that Lord Xinling was at home, he did not stay in the wing, nor did he call his servant to sleep with him. What kind of status did he have?

Later, the elder felt that he understood Lord Xinling's thoughts: that little boy Gai Nie was extraordinary. He practiced martial arts in the courtyard on time every day, and even had an iron sword. Although the sword was just a standard weapon of the Korean army, There is nothing strange, but having a sword in the hands of a child is absolutely shocking! The family elders believe that Lord Xinling must have a keen eye to recognize real gold, and he found a stranger and raised the mother and son together. In the future, the child It must be of great use. After thinking about this, the elder naturally allowed Gai Nie to practice swordsmanship in the courtyard, and took good care of the mother and son.

After Lord Xinling came in, both of them were surprised. Lord Xinling asked Bie about his diet and daily life in the past few days. The slave answered one by one and expressed his satisfaction. Gai Nie said: "But if there is no coach, I'm afraid My martial arts skills are at a disadvantage!"

Lord Xinling said: "I will definitely ask someone to teach you martial arts! When the war is over, I will take care of it!"

The little slave said: "Is the war starting again? Would you rather form an alliance with Qin?"

Lord Xinling said: "Although we are in alliance with Qin, why should we betray our alliance?"

The little slave said: "Will we fight with Qin again?"

Lord Xinling said: "Of course! The Qin people killed 40,000 Han troops and went straight to the outskirts of Liang to camp in the fields."

Gai Nie said: "I know it in the field. There is a large area of ​​rice, and the porridge is very fragrant and sweet, which is different from millet."

Lord Xinling said: "You are right. The Qin people entered the fields and destroyed our rice. We must drive them away immediately!" Gai Nie nodded in agreement.

After chatting for a few more words, Lord Xinling came out, returned to the main room, and fell asleep soundly.

Without the sound of war drums, Mr. Xinling slept until three o'clock in the morning. When he woke up, he felt refreshed. His concubines had already been waiting to wash themselves, and they came out to have breakfast. The gentlemen came to the house to listen to the matter one by one. Daolao, then he went to Daliang Gate with Zhang Zhen, Mr. Zhongyue and Chen Si.

Mang Mao, Wei Qi and Dr. Xu Jia were all in the room, discussing something. When they saw Mr. Xinling and others coming in, they all stood up to greet him. Mang Mao said, "The story has been published. There will be news in the afternoon when Angelica comes home."

Doctor Xu Jia said: "When we discuss the peace policy together, we will be able to find out the truth."
