Chapter 26;
The Tiger and Wolf Division
If the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them; if they are piled high on the shore, the current will be turbulent.
When everyone in the world relaxed their vigilance towards Qin, Ying Si planned to launch a war against the three Jin Dynasties.
Unforeseen circumstances occurred. In 340 BC, the king of Zhao State, Zhao Suhou, Zhao Yu, passed away. He only reigned for twenty-four years. The fifteen-year-old prince Zhao Yong succeeded to the throne and faced internal and external troubles.
Various countries sent special envoys to attend Zhao Suhou's funeral in an attempt to carve up Zhao. The armies of Wei, South Korea, and Qi pressed on the border, approaching the border of Zhao.
The Five-Nation Alliance organized by King Wei Huiwen of Wei State intended to carve up Zhao State. The fifteen-year-old Zhao Yong personally led troops and horses to compete with the enemy monarchs at the border to prevent them from invading Zhao State's territory.
Qin and Zhao share the same origin, so Yingsi immediately sent 50,000 troops to rescue Zhao so that it would not be divided among the five kingdoms.
If the Zhao State is divided, it will not be conducive to the development of the Qin State in the east, and it will strengthen the Wei State and restore its hegemony.
The nobles of the Zhao State came from the Ying tribe, and were once generals under the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The ancestors of the Zhao State can be traced back to the fifth generation grandson of the Yellow Emperor, and they were the same ancestors as the King of Qin. Because of their merits in controlling floods, they were given the title of Ying by Emperor Shun.
Because their ancestors were loyal to Shang Zhou, they were all feared by the Emperor of Zhou.
Zhao Yong, who succeeded to the throne at a young age, was only the sixth generation monarch of Zhao State. Zhao State was located next to Donghu and other nomadic peoples, as well as the Zhongshan State next to it. Zhongshan State had always been a serious problem for Zhao State and seriously threatened Zhao State's land area.
The infantry spears of the Great Qin warriors, as well as the sharp short-edged knives on their waists, the powerful crossbow team, and the sparkling golden armor, fought in an orderly manner, and for the first time officially appeared in the world.
The Kingdom of Zhao was in turmoil, but Zhao Yong succeeded to the throne with a plan and courage. With the help of Qin, he repelled the five-nation coalition in an attempt to destroy Zhao.
Later, a branch became famous for managing horses for the Emperor of Zhou. The Emperor of Zhou was granted the title of vassal, regardless of past grudges, and gradually became a noble of the Jin Kingdom.
The Master of Tiger and Wolf is well-deserved, and the warriors of Great Qin are invincible in the world.
Instead, the troops were divided into three groups to attack Wei, South Korea, and Chu. They occupied dozens of cities in the three countries one after another, and the three countries they fought did not even have a chance to breathe.
Immediately afterwards, Ying Sishi was famous for his foresight and foresight, and he did not bring back the elite soldiers of Qin Dynasty.
King Huai of Chu was very angry. He lost his wife and lost his army. He cursed Qin and ordered his envoys to come to Qin to find Miyue, hoping to speak favorably for Chu.
The Chu envoy came to visit Miyue with rich gifts and specialties from her hometown. Miyue didn't know much about state affairs, so she told the Chu envoy, "I am a Qin woman and I don't care about government affairs."
Then the three families were divided into Jin, and the three noble families of Han, Zhao, Wei, and Jin replaced the king of the great country of the Spring and Autumn Period, the Zhi family of Jin.
King Wei Huiwen of Wei State sent envoys to sue for peace, and was willing to cede ten more cities to Qin State. His neighbor South Korea also became afraid of Qin State. The marriage between Qin and Chu brought a short-term peace. Although Chu State was armed with armor
Millions of people were unable to defeat Qin, so they ceded the city to Qin.
A large army of sharp soldiers will surely defeat them in battle, and they are famous for their military merits, so they cut off the heads of enemy troops wherever they go.
The envoy of Chu said: I want my wife to think about her mother country and how well the King of Chu treated her. She should not be ungrateful and should serve her mother country.
Mi Yue was very angry when she heard this, but in order to deal with the Chu envoy, she still perfunctorily agreed to the Chu envoy's request.
As soon as the Chu envoy left the palace, Yingsi heard about Mi Yue's private meeting with the Chu envoy.
He was thinking that if Mi Yue came to her to plead for her motherland, he would still agree. So after waiting for two days, Mi Yue did not come to see him, so Ying Si had to visit Mi Yue.
