Seeing Zhang Ji's arrogant words, most of the civil and military officials in the Han court were shocked.

This sentence was said by Zhang Yi, who was the Prime Minister of Qin in the past, to Chu Ling Yin Zhaoyang when he was on a mission to the Chu State. He was joking at the time, but Zhang Yi spent his whole life "stealing" Chu's land.

And Zhang Ji, as Zhang Yi's great-grandson... it's hard not to suspect that Zhang Ji also wants to do this.

If we really want to cede territory this time... I'm afraid it won't be a good thing.

However, among all the Han ministers in the hall, some were willing to stand up.

"In the past, the State of Chu sent 100,000 troops to invade Korea."

Heavy footsteps fell on the floor. The owner of the footsteps was majestic, and the strange-shaped sword scabbard at his waist swayed slightly with his owner.

"The Han army was defeated repeatedly, and only 8,000 mourning soldiers were left. However, under the leadership of my general, they counterattacked and defeated the 100,000 Chu army!"

"I wonder how the Qin army compares to the Chu army?"

The person who spoke was none other than South Korea's General Ji Wuye.

If there is anyone who is more disgusted and feared by other countries than Zhang Yi in the past, it must be Bai Qi.

For Ji Wuye, Zhang Ji's use of the Qin army to threaten South Korea was a slap in the face. After all, he was the leader of South Korea's generals, the South Korean general.

Therefore, Nanyang suddenly became a hot potato.

From Han Wangan's point of view, since you Ji Wuye can't defeat Wang Yan, why are you so arrogant? If you let others say a few words, you won't die. Maybe Zhang Ji will vent his anger, and South Korea will be able to cut off a few less cities.

allow.

You must know that before the change of coaches in the Changping Battle, the real coaches of both the enemy and our side were Wang Yan and Lian Po. Even Lian Po suffered continuous defeats under Wang Yan's attacks and many camps and barriers were breached. Ji Wu

How could Ye have the confidence to retain more of his land despite Wang Ye's attack?

But he had just made an alliance with Lao Ai. If South Korea loses cities due to ceding territory now, then his Ji Wuye's new South Korea will lose cities in the future. That is cutting off his flesh!

Furthermore, since he wants to cooperate with Lao Ai, Zhang Ji is his enemy. Even if the relationship between the two was acceptable before, he must step forward.

But Zhi Gui knew that Ji Wuye could not retreat. He snorted coldly and still faced Zhang Ji in a tit-for-tat posture. However, it could be seen from his hand loosening the hilt of the sword that his heart was no longer as firm as before.

In the Battle of Yique, Bai Qi defeated the Wei-Korean coalition and beheaded 240,000 people;

He attacked Chu three times, captured Ying City, the capital of Chu, flooded and beheaded 150,000 Chu troops;

In the Battle of Huayang, Bai Qi marched a thousand miles in eight days and beheaded 150,000 Wei and Zhao coalition troops;

In the Battle of Xingcheng, Bai Qi defeated nine Korean cities and beheaded 50,000 people;

In the Battle of Changping, Bai Qi killed 450,000 Zhao troops and killed the enemy before and after him.

"My envoy, please ask the King of Han to cut off Nanyang to make amends to Qin!"

What's more, although the Chu army is strong, as a large army composed of private soldiers of nobles from all over the country, the Chu army is good at fighting but not good at hard combat. It can only fight with the wind. This is the main reason why the Chu army suffered a huge defeat after its commander was assassinated.

"Think about it, they should be able to remind the countries in Shandong to some extent of the prestige of Lord Wu'an in the past."

However, Zhang Ji's proposal sounded like something to solve a problem in Han Wangan's ears. He looked happy and even hesitated whether to give the other four cities to Qin. This would just get rid of this burden, so that Korea could not only solve the problem of famine.

, and can also avoid future battles with Chu.

Zhang Ji's words made everyone's hearts tremble.

Yes, broken place!

This year, there was a famine in South Korea. Due to a sudden drought and locust plague in Nanyang, the food harvest was almost impossible. People in the eight Nanyang cities occupied by South Korea starved to death everywhere, which also increased the price of food in South Korea to several times its original value.

Even dozens of times.

"General Ji can give it a try. Now General Wang Jue on the border of Chen Bing, Qin and Han, has been the deputy general who has followed Wu An Jun Bai Qi for decades, and the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army also fought side by side with Wu An Jun in the Changping battle.

Zhongzhong made great military exploits."

"If there is a bad situation in Hanoi, move the people to the east of the river and the millet to the riverside."

"Since South Korea has made a mistake, it should make corresponding compensation!"

Sitting on the throne, Han Wangan took out a sweat towel from his sleeve and wiped the cold sweat from his temples. He glanced at Ji Wuye with a sad look on his face, with a rare hint of blame in his eyes.

Zhang Ji's words were loud and reverberated in the hall, causing all the Han officials to whisper.

Therefore, Han Wangan was also a little worried about this matter, but he temporarily forgot about it because of Qin's accusation.

Nanyang is a land with fertile land and dense water network. It reaches Han and Wei in the east, Jingchu in the south, Bashu in the west, and Qin and Zhao in the north.

As Bai Qi's lieutenant general for decades, Wang Yan naturally had a prestige that matched that of Wu Anjun's lieutenant general, and he was also famous.

Ji Wuye fell silent.

However, what they were whispering about was not Zhang Ji's tyranny of wanting South Korea to cede the land of Nanyang, but... Zhang Ji actually wanted the ruined land of Nanyang.

Moreover, Zhang Ji's purpose today is obviously to ask South Korea to cede territory and seek peace.

But even these eight cities often triggered battles between Qin, Han, and Chu.

Therefore, the forces of various countries were intertwined in Nanyang, and Nanyang was in constant war and was divided among the four kingdoms of Qin, Wei, Han, and Chu. After many years of fighting, the Wei State offered its city in Nanyang to Qin for peace, and the Nanyang city occupied by the Chu State

It was also captured by Qin, leaving only the eight cities occupied by South Korea in Nanyang.

If it weren't for the fertile land of Nanyang and its abundant products, the Korean ministers would have wanted to get rid of the war-prone Nanyang land.

Moreover, the birthday of King An of Han is coming soon, and he needs to invest a lot of money to hold a birthday banquet. How can he be willing to spend the money on those untouchables?

These five battles alone killed more than a million troops, not to mention other large and small battles. These battles not only severely damaged the effective forces of each country, but also buried the memory of Bai Qi and other people in the hearts of each country.

The myth of the invincibility of the Qin army under his command.

If we don’t provide disaster relief, South Korea’s reputation will be damaged and it will lose the hearts and minds of the people in Nanyang; if we do disaster relief, it will require an investment of more than a thousand gold?

Han Wangan was also eager to get rid of this burden, and the Qin State represented by Zhang Ji happened to be willing to take over.

But this year is different.

Zhang Ji did not give in at all. It was a fact that Ji Wuye was a good soldier, but the reason why he was able to break through 100,000 with 8,000 was ultimately by assassinating the Chu army commander, rather than a real military battle.

This sentence is not a lie. In fact, throughout China's thousands of years of history, disaster relief has basically been done by immigrants allocating food. No one would think outside this circle to think of other disaster relief methods.

It can be said that everyone is happy with Zhang Ji's proposal.

So Han Wangan hurriedly arranged for his chamberlain to send a map of Nanyang. He outlined the locations of the four cities of Lushan, Baofeng, Jiaxian, and Xiangcheng on the map. He also drew circles with a vermilion pen, and finally stamped the country of Korea on the map.

The seal symbolizes that the edict to cede territory has officially come into effect.

And as the red seal on the seal fell on the covenant, Han Wangan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He could finally have a peaceful sleep.
