Chapter 323 Zhao Dan's Careful Plan

Zhao State Camp.

Zhao Dan leaned on the couch, his eyes half open and half closed, and there were a lot of bamboo slips in front of him, and he seemed to be dozing off.

A chaotic footsteps approached.

"I have something to ask for the king!"

"The king is resting and needs to report to enter!"

Zhao Dan heard Yu Xin's voice and slowly opened his eyes.

"Come in."

After a moment, Yu Xin hurriedly walked in with an unconcealed look of anxiety on his face.

"King, things are not good. Then King Wei and King Qi have a conflict. Now the two armies of Qi and Wei are confronting each other, and it seems that war may begin at any time!"

However, what surprised Yu Xin was that Zhao Dan was not panicked after hearing the news, but instead was very calm.

"Oh, have you started fighting?"

“Not started yet.”

Zhao Dan couldn't help laughing: "Why should Yu Qing be so anxious?"

Yu Xin was stunned when he heard this and said subconsciously: "But the king, the kings of these two countries were summoned by the king. If they fight here, wouldn't it damage the king's reputation?"

Zhao Dan laughed and said, "Yu Xin, I am not the Emperor of Zhou, so King Wei and King Jian of Qi are not my ministers. Even if they really fight, what do they have to do with me? Let them bite the dog. Don't worry, they dare not start a war at will."

Zhao Dan thought he knew more about King Jian of Qi and King of Wei.

Both of these kings have one disadvantage, which is indecisiveness.

Indecisive monarchs like this usually rarely start to fight when they are in a fever.

If the conflict is like King Yuan of Chu, then Zhao Dan will have to smooth things over immediately, because King Yuan of Chu is more intense, and maybe he will really start to do it if he disagrees.

Yu Xin was stunned for a while before speaking, "Then according to the king's wishes, don't you care about them?"

Zhao Dan smiled and said, "Yu Qing, I'll ask you, is the reason why King Jian of Qi and King of Wei conflicted because of the ranking order of the flagpole?"

Yu Xin nodded, saw the cramped smile on Zhao Dan's face, and suddenly realized: "Did the king have expected this before?"

Zhao Dan smiled and said, "That's natural, otherwise why would I put the flagpole there?"

The six flagpoles, which are specially placed in front of the high platform, are actually a small trick from Zhao Dan.

Zhao Dan hopes to use such a small matter to provoke the relationship between several other monarchs. It doesn’t matter who has a conflict with whom, and the scale of the conflict is acceptable.

Why do this? Because although some of the other five monarchs present are allies of Zhao and some are enemies of Zhao, in the long run, they are all enemies of Zhao.

Since that's the case, Zhao Dan certainly has to seize every opportunity to sow discord between these guys, so that their relationship will become worse, the better. Only in this way can Zhao State have a greater possibility of defeating them one by one.

Moreover, Zhao Dan was confident that even if someone saw through his plan, the conflict that broke out was inevitable.

Because everyone wants face!

In terms of the usual seating method, the six-sided flagpoles are the most respected, and the two sides in the middle are considered to be the most respected; the two sides on the right are considered to be the most respected; the two sides on the left are considered to be the most inferior.

Among the six countries this time, Qin and Zhao are the strongest, and are considered to be the best; South Korea is the weakest, and are considered to be the lowest; but the three countries of Wei, Qi and Chu are all similar, and are considered to be the middle.

So the problem arises. There are only two medium-sized flagpole positions, but there are three medium-sized countries, Wei, Qi and Chu.

And these three countries have their own enemies, so it is absolutely impossible to give in.

So any two countries in these three countries will definitely conflict.

Moreover, this flagpole incident was not just for sowering. When these guys were almost up, Zhao Dan could go out to clean up the mess and gain a wave of reputation.

"Let them make trouble! Send someone to stare at them. When they make enough trouble, I will take action to solve the problem!" This is what Zhao Dan said to Yu Xin.

At this moment, under the high platform, King Wei and King Jian of Qi were in a tense situation of not giving in to each other.

The King of Wei shouted, "King of Qi, why don't you quickly relieve the trap of Zhong Cheng, the general under my command. Otherwise, if I attacked, I will make you bloom inside and outside today!"

As soon as King Wei finished speaking, the soldiers of Wei immediately rolled their bows and arrows and long swords out of their sheath. They looked like they could launch an attack at any time and defeated the Qi army's siege of General Zhong Cheng of Wei.

After hearing the threatening words of King Wei, King Jian of Qi also trembled and shouted coldly: "King of Wei! I am the king of Qi, and I can't let you issue orders to me! Zhong Cheng, who is under your command, is bold and arbitrary, actually shot the warriors of Qi in front of me. It is simply unforgivable! If you are willing to hand this person over to me and then remove the flag of your Wei State, you can give up this matter!"

When the King of Wei heard this, he also sneered: "King of Qi, this flag was hung first by me. You obviously wanted to steal the position of my flag later. It was ridiculous! This matter was absolutely impossible!"

The two of them quarreled fiercely, each blushing and without the demeanor of a king.

The two armies of tens of thousands of troops confronted here have long attracted the attention of several nearby camps. Countless people stood or stood in the nearby camps, pointing and watching the two young kings.

"Oh?" King Jian of Qi's face became colder and colder, and in the end he almost stopped hiding the anger in his words: "So the King of Wei insisted on going against me today?"

The King of Wei spat, and he was also unwilling to give in: "I'm afraid the King of Qi himself who insisted on doing the right thing and refused to repent? The flagpole on the left is still empty. Even if you go to hang your Qi flag, I will not stop you!"

At this moment, a burst of applause suddenly rang out.

"Okay, okay, the King of Wei's words are very kind, and I am deeply convinced by my heart!"

With this statement, a large army suddenly appeared from the north and came to the front of King Wei and King Jian of Qi who were tensely confronting each other.

King Wei and King Jian of Qi turned around in surprise at the same time, and realized that it was King Chu Yuan who came.

King Yuan of Chu stared at King Jian of Qi, his eyes full of unconcealed hatred. He shouted at King Jian of Qi, "Tian Jian! You came later, but you wanted to snatch the flagpole of King Wei. This move is indeed as despicable as the ancestor of the Tian family! Today I want to see how shameless you can be!"

King Wei was immediately happy when he heard this.

It seems that King Yuan of Chu could not help but jump out and stepped on King Jian of Qi.

But it's normal to think about it. The Battle of Lanling has just passed. As the failed side, King Yuan of Chu must be very unhappy with King Jian of Qi.
