When Gu Cheng was running his own Qin State, of course, he would not let go of the Qi State that the other party was operating. At this time, the Qi State was grand and the king lived a luxurious life. Moreover, because he was good-looking, he became an idol of the people of the whole country. People imitated the clothes of the king. Wherever the king went, there were crowds of people, and it was so lively!

"Haha, just be so pretty there..." Gu Cheng said gritting his teeth.

The reason why I gritted my teeth was naturally because Qin State was armed with military force, and he captured strong men everywhere to enrich the army, and there was almost no entertainment. Therefore, in the minds of the people, the king of Qin State was almost a demon-like existence. He hid wherever he went, for fear that if he could hide, he would fall into a different place!

The king of Qi lived a very easy life, but now the problem is beginning to expand, that is, the extravagant life of Qi has aroused the jealousy of the kings of the three surrounding countries. They have planned to send troops to destroy Qi and take its wealth for themselves!

There is no problem with Qin. The monarch and the people mentioned above are basically opposite each other, and some neighboring countries have also begun to notice the strangeness of Qin. In order to protect themselves, they began to unite and fight against Qin together!

Of course, Gu Cheng had some expectations for this situation. Since Qin was also established, although its national strength was rapidly strengthened, it was still not enough to deal with the coalition forces of neighboring countries. Therefore, he had to give up his plan to send troops to Qi first, but build high walls on the border and strengthen protective forces to avoid being broken through by the coalition forces. That would be troublesome!

It can be said that at this time, both Qi and Qin had great external troubles, and both sides had no time to take care of each other and could only protect themselves first.

The situation on the border of Qin quickly became tense and began to enter the war stage. Because Qi was not threatened at all, and the monarch sent people to give gifts to the monarchs of Lu, Ji and Jiao Kingdom, the war did not break out, but instead seemed quite harmonious. The monarch of Qi continued to live a luxurious life of drunkenness and lanterns...

Gu Cheng was secretly happy inside, you boy know how to enjoy it, just go, sooner or later, let a sword hang on your head, and try the taste of it falling down at any time!

The war between Qin and the coalition forces finally broke out!

Gu Cheng had no time to take care of Qi for the time being. Anyway, he felt that it would be fine if he didn't watch it now, because the king of Qi was singing every night, and the dancers didn't know that they had the hatred of the destruction of the country, and they were still singing wonderful songs in the court every day. Can such a country still have the law of nature if it is immortal?

The war on the Qin border was getting stronger and stronger, and there were more countries joining the battle group, but this was not afraid of Qin. Gu Cheng kept dispatching troops and generals to push his combat power to the limit, and used some strategies, such as discord between opponents and defeating each other, to dismantle some countries' armies!

The military power was great for a moment!

The remaining coalition forces felt a little bad. Unexpectedly, the Qin army became stronger and stronger. If this continues, no one will have good results in the future.

So they had to join forces to keep warm and strengthen their combat power. Finally, they won several battles and stabilized the situation...

News of the war between Qin and the coalition forces began to spread, and many countries were a little ready to move, some wanted to take advantage of the situation, some thought about which group to join was more advantageous, and some were just watching the excitement. In short, the attitudes of various countries towards the rise of Qin were different, but one thing was that no one thought that Qin would become a big trouble in the future!

On the Qi side, the country is still in peace and harmony, but the border is still plundered from time to time, and the people have begun to feel a little dissatisfied with the king...

However, in that era when appearance was just, the king of Qi was still loved by most people, and people's pursuit of him did not decrease.

At this moment, the king suddenly fell in love with a new robe!

This kind of robe weaving material is called "安" in Qi State. Textiles made of silk thread as horizontal and cotton thread as vertical are definitely cheaper than silk, but more expensive than simple cotton.

The robes made of the party are beautiful and generous, comfortable and washable. Under the demonstration of the king of Qi, people in the entire Qi State fell in love with the party robes!

For a time, demand increased significantly!

When Gu Cheng noticed this information, he didn't care much, because the king of Qi lived such a luxurious life all day long. He seemed to like silk products some time ago, but now he liked party robes, which seemed to be reduced to a new level. It was a bit rare. However, party robes are still luxury goods for the people. If Qi was not richer, the people would not be able to follow the trend.

This is good, so you can spend money and have fun. When our Qin army reaches Qi State, you will know that having money will make you live, which is far less important than having a strong army...

Gu Cheng ignored this information, and the consequences were somewhat serious, but this is a later story.

Now, the border crisis faced by the Qin Dynasty still exists. In order to protect itself, the surrounding countries fought desperately with the Qin army, which made Gu Cheng feel extremely troubled. The food and grass are almost out of supply, and the population is insufficient. The country urgently needs rest and rest...

In Qi, the popularity of party robes has greatly increased the demand for party robes as raw materials. Qi produced less domestically, which was far from meeting this demand. Therefore, Qi began to buy a large amount of party materials from the three countries of Lu, Ji and Jiao. Later, the neighboring Liang State also joined the ranks of this supplier!

The people of Qi said that they would buy it as long as it is a party material, and it would be a high price to buy it, and everyone would refuse!

When the people of these four neighboring countries heard the news, they made a calculation and found that selling party materials to Qi was too cost-effective. As long as they spend half of their daily farming efforts, they could weave party materials and make double the money!

At the beginning, people were still half-believing, but when the merchants of Qi really bought party materials at high prices, the people of the four countries were so happy that they joined the party materials industry and stopped farming!

As the four countries supply party materials to Qi increased, the fiscal revenue of the four countries also increased significantly, which made the kings of the four countries happy. They simply called on the people to engage in party materials production and sell them to Qi. In order to encourage this behavior, they also put on party robes and stopped the autumn wind on the border to ensure the normal progress of border trade...

This feast of wealth has been persisted for nearly a year, and a sudden change has occurred!

The State of Qi suddenly stopped acquiring party materials, and the border gate was closed!

"What's going on? No acquisition?"

“Didn’t you keep collecting well?”

"How can I not buy it? Is there a lot of house in my house?"

"Who said no? Now we are not farming anymore, and the whole family is counting on selling party materials!"

"Oh my God, how can Qi State not keep its word? Didn't it say that everyone would refuse?"

"Hmph, we must tell the monarch about this. The little Qi State dares not keep its word. Just wait and suffer!"

"Yes, tell us the monarch to go!"

"In a few days, we will send troops to attack Qi State!"

“That’s it…”

The kings of the Four Kingdoms quickly received the news, and were all shocked. Unexpectedly, Qi State turned against its word and claimed to acquire a large amount of party materials. They refused to refuse, but now they are blatantly breaking their promises. It is impossible not to attack!

So, with a group of kings of the four countries, they immediately formed a coalition force to destroy Qi and divide their wealth.

At this time, they discovered an extremely serious problem, that is, the army was short of food!

Yes, for a whole year, the people of the four countries abandoned their land and switched to business materials. As a result, the grain output dropped sharply. On weekdays, the food required was all purchased from Qi and other neighboring countries. During this year, although the income from party materials was good, the purchase price of grain was also rising. Now, the income from selling party materials was almost close to the cost of purchasing grain!

At this critical moment, Qi closed its border trade and interrupted its food supply. This was the big deal. Other neighboring countries found that the four countries wanted to form a coalition to fight Qi and urgently needed food and grass. So they either raised the food and grass significantly or obtained the benefits of Qi and did not sell food and grass to them at all, leaving the four-nation coalition in a state of naked war!

When the soldiers learned that there was no food and grass, how could they still have the intention to fight?

How could he fight if he couldn't even eat enough? So, the four-nation coalition forces collapsed before they were formed.

The war was not successful, and the Qiufeng at the border was also because Qi had prepared for it and strengthened border protection, but it failed.

After a while, food prices soared, and people could not afford it. Famine had already occurred in the four countries.

The king of the Four Kingdoms quickly ordered the people to stop doing business and return to farming, but it was too late to do so. Even if the people were trying hard to farm, the food would not be produced in a short period of time. At this time, the army of Qi had divided into four groups and was invincible. They rushed to the palace of the Four Kingdoms and took down all the four countries without any effort!

Qi State suddenly annexed the four countries, and its national strength showed great success, becoming a hegemonic country!

When Gu Cheng was fighting with the coalition forces of neighboring countries, he suddenly became a little confused when he heard the news!

Since this game is the same as reality, how the other party manages the country is kept confidential, you can only judge the opponent's strategy through superficial observation, and what the other party is like must be discovered through inquiries. Therefore, no matter how Gu Cheng couldn't figure out why Qi could annex the four countries at once and become a hegemonic country?

And I am still fighting so hard now!

He quickly sent spies to figure out how Qi State developed...

After Qi's annexation of the four countries, its territory suddenly expanded several times and bordered Chu.

The State of Chu is also a big country, and its national strength is only stronger than that of the current State of Qi, so Qi suddenly faces this great enemy.

In the past, the State of Liang bordered it, and it barely survived through humiliating means such as marriage, tribute, and being a younger brother. However, the State of Qi does not want to do this now.

How to deal with Chu has become a major problem, but this is nothing to Xiaoxing...
