Chapter 188 Wei Hui fled the Song Dynasty.

Chen Zu went all the way north and soon came to Handan, the capital of Zhao, and met with the Marquis of Zhao.

"I heard that Chen Qing came from South Korea?" Zhao Hou asked.

"That's right, Marquis Han asked the foreign minister to say hello to you." Chen Zu said, and told Marquis Zhao about the title awarded by Marquis Han.

When Zhao Hou heard this, his heart moved slightly, but his face remained calm.

"Chen Qing is interested."

Chen Zuo continued to say to Zhao Hou: "Foreign ministers once heard something. There cannot be two tigers in a mountain, otherwise they will fight each other, and the losing tiger will be killed. Now among the three Jin Dynasties, it is like this

Two tigers appear in a mountain, and only if the other tiger is willing to surrender can they live in peace."

"Marquis Zhao, once your Zhao State was the strongest tiger, now Wei State has taken your place, and Wei State is suppressing you and Zhao State from all aspects. If the three Jins fight together, you will get the least spoils.

, and Wei State has the most."

"Is it because Wei Guo has not taken action against Zhao Guo now because Wei Guo is concerned about the friendship between the three Jins? No, it is because Zhao Guo is strong and powerful. Wei Guo is not completely sure of annexing Zhao Guo. But when Wei Guo's strength continues to grow, and

The power of Zhao State remains unchanged, and Wei State will one day annex Zhao State."

"Zhao Hou, you are a wise man. Why do you want to help the Wei State become stronger? Isn't this detrimental to the Zhao State?"

"Wei is surrounded by Zhao and South Korea from both north and south. Isn't Wei worried about being flanked by South Korea and Zhao?"

"You are now helping the Wei State become stronger, which is like feeding meat to the tiger. The tiger is getting stronger and stronger. This is raising tigers for trouble!"

The Marquis of Zhao was originally dissatisfied with Wei's suppression of Zhao, so he immediately stated that he would no longer ally with Wei, but secretly formed an alliance with Qi and South Korea.

The news about Zhao's secret alliance with Qi was secretly told by South Korea to Marquis Wei. When Marquis Wei learned about this, his face was a little ugly, but he did not have an attack.

Although the State of Wei seems very powerful at this time, having defeated Qin, Chu, and Qi in a row, the State of Wei is not invincible. If all the countries are offended and people are angry, the State of Wei will be in danger.

"I heard that the current Marquis of Zhao is the younger brother of the former Marquis of Zhao. Because when the previous Marquis of Zhao died, his son was young, so the younger brother of the former Marquis of Zhao came to the throne, and he will succeed to the throne after the son of the former Marquis of Zhao grows up.

"The Marquis of Wei asked Zhai Huang.

Zhai Huang said: "Your Majesty, it is indeed true. The Zhao family is derived from the Yin family. The surname is Zhao. Later, he was named a minister by King Xuan for his merits. He entered the Kingdom of Jin during the time of King You. Therefore, there is a custom that brothers will be succeeded by younger brothers.

.”

"I heard that Zhao Zhang, the son of Marquis Zhao, was not made the crown prince, but the son of the previous Marquis Zhao was made the crown prince. This is a recipe for disaster. After the death of Marquis Zhao, the Kingdom of Zhao will definitely be in turmoil." Wei Hou said.

.

"Ever since Zhaohou established his capital in Zhongmou, he has always wanted to go south to the Central Plains. The last time he was stopped by the establishment of Yecheng alone in Zhangshui, but Zhaohou never gave up. Now Zhaohou and Qi have secretly joined forces. We should have made preparations early.

. I am going to send someone to contact Zhao Zhang, what do you think?"

Zhai Huang said: "If your Majesty uses this strategy, Zhao Guo will fall into civil strife. But the alliance of the three Jins will be destroyed."

"The Marquis of Zhao has secretly united with the State of Qi. This plan is just a plan for a rainy day. If the Marquis of Zhao is still willing to form an alliance with the State of Wei, this strategy will naturally not be used. If the Marquis of Zhao is not willing, then this will be a backup plan to deal with the State of Zhao.

"Marquis Wei said.

It was dusk in Diqiu, the capital of the Wei Kingdom.

It has been two hundred years since Weiguo moved its capital here, and Weiguo, which was founded for more than four hundred years, has gradually declined. However, Weiguo is doing pretty well now because of its good relations with Wei.

On the other side, the Kingdom of Song borders the Kingdom of Wei. Because Chaoge, the ancient capital of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, is located in the Kingdom of Wei, the Song Dynasty officials visited the Kingdom of Wei many times in history to pay their respects. There were frequent exchanges between the two countries, and many of the Wei Dynasty officials and the Song Dynasty officials were related by marriage.

.

At this time, a turmoil broke out in the Duke of Wei. The previous Duke of Wei passed away while on a tour, and the prince was not around. Wei Li, the younger brother of Duke Wei, took the opportunity to ascend the throne and inherit the throne, and then ordered the execution of Prince Hui.

.

After Prince Hui got the news, he quickly led his subordinates to flee to the Song Dynasty. Prince Hui's mother was the legitimate daughter of the Song Dynasty, and the Duke of Song was his uncle. As long as he escaped to the Song Dynasty, he could use the power of the Song Dynasty to rebuild his country.

Restoration of the country.

After Duke Wei learned that the prince had fled to the Song Dynasty, he immediately organized his troops and sent envoys to the Song Dynasty to ask the Song Dynasty to hand over Prince Hui.

When Song Gong learned that his nephew had been deprived of his position as king, he was furious and wanted to send troops to help his nephew restore the country. But before he could gather the army, Wei Gong had already led the army and asked Song Gong to come out.

Prince Hui, otherwise we will attack the Song Dynasty.

Being blocked and threatened at the door of his house, Song Gong was furious. Your Wei State has an army, but I, the Song State, don't have any? He immediately ordered the army from all over the country to assemble to fight with Wei Gong.

This move played into the plan of the Duke of Wei, who had followed Wei in the wars over the years. Although the army of Wei was not as good as the military soldiers of Wei, it was still an elite soldier. And what about the Song State? Since it was defeated by the Chu State last time, it has been

After the Huai State became a vassal and protected by the Huai State, the Song State had been stable for decades.

Song's army had not experienced a major war for decades, so how could it be Wei's opponent?

As a result, there was a great battle between the two sides, and the Song State was defeated. Song Gong fled back to Shangqiu in embarrassment, and his soldiers suffered heavy losses. But Wei Gong saw that the Song State was so vulnerable. He immediately led the army to continue to attack the Song State, hoping to force the Song State General Prince

Hui surrendered and occupied Song's territory at the same time.

When Duke Song saw the Wei army surrounding the city, he turned pale with fright and quickly sent an envoy to ask for help from Huai State.

At the same time, among the army of Wei, Duke Wei was full of ambition and said with great pride: "This Song Dynasty is the descendant of the Yin Shang Dynasty. At that time, Duke Wen was kind and left a way for him to survive, so that he could enjoy the blessed land. This Song Dynasty

How can such a weak man deserve to occupy these lands? As long as our Wei State annexes the Song State, then Wei State will not need to look at the faces of the three Jin states."

"Your Majesty, the Song State is weak, but the Song State is a vassal state of the Huai State. This time our army attacks the Song Dynasty, the Huai State will definitely come to help. The Huai State is the elite in the world, how can our army stop it? If not, just accept it!"

A famous Weiguo minister suggested.

"No, if we withdraw our troops, I am afraid that the Song Dynasty will use Prince Hui to intervene in the affairs of our country!" Several ministers objected.

"The Huai State is a powerful country in the world, but the Wei State is not bad either. Your Majesty, why don't you invite the three Jin Dynasties to attack the Song Dynasty? I heard that the Qi State also covets the land of the Song State, why not invite the Qi State too? Then we will have five families

Divide the Song Kingdom equally!"

"With Wei Wu's soldiers here, plus Han and Zhao Qi, if the Huai Kingdom dares to come, they must know how powerful our Zhou Kingdom is!" Wei Li quickly made a decision.
