Pinyang City, South City Tower.

The soldiers of the Western Wei Dynasty were stationed outside the gate tower with iron swords in hand. Their faces were solemn and they looked even more nervous than on the battlefield.

Wei Wangbao held the prince in both hands and respectfully faced the man in the cloak in front of him.

"If it weren't for the hundreds of years of stalemate between Qin and Wei in Hexi, which wasted the power of Wei, Wei would not have returned to Guiling. After Maling, the country's power was greatly reduced." King Bao of Wei said respectfully and seriously, "Now the land of Qi is

They will eventually be defeated and slaughtered by Xiang Yu, and Hexi of Qin will also be included in the territory of Wei. Double happiness comes together. My younger brother Bao Jing..."

"In Brother Wang's mind, this trip to attack Qin is not just to avenge Hexi, right?" The man in the cloak said coldly, without touching the wine prince in the case.

"Of course not." Wei Wangbao was a little excited, "The Wei Dynasty was a place of four wars. If you didn't want to be bullied by other countries, you could only attack other countries. But Qin Guoqian could guard the pass without worries. This battle was to seize Qin's power.

The strengths make up for Wei’s weaknesses!”

The man in the cloak smiled and nodded, and drank together with King Bao of Wei.

King Bao of Wei's cheeks were slightly red, and he was overjoyed. "Wang Xiang has led the troops to attack Guan Gao eastward according to his orders. Zhao Wu's 20,000 Qin soldiers arrived. When they arrived at Wuguan, Xianyang and other places, Qin soldiers rushed to help Yueyang. My younger brother defeated them in one fell swoop.

This land is the land of the Wei Dynasty, and Brother Wang can claim the title of king again in the land of Qin. By then, even Xiang Yu may be in awe of the Wei Dynasty!"

Listening to Wei Wangbao's words, the man in the cloak suddenly saw the scene of floods flooding Daliang City more than ten years ago, and his hands in his long sleeves couldn't help but tremble.

"If Brother Wang can unify the Nine Provinces, Brother Yu will feel at ease. Brother Yu no longer wants to be king." The cloaked man said while suppressing fear.

Seeing the man in the bamboo hat like this, King Bao of Wei clenched his fists and said, "This is all Wang Ben's fault! Digging water from the river and the chasm flooded Daliang City for three months. I hate that Wang Ben's son Wang Li did not die in my hands!"

"Zi Ying will definitely return to Qin from Bashu. If Brother Wang kills him, it will be regarded as revenge for Brother Yu." The man in the cloak said gloomily.

"Brother Wang, don't worry. At this moment, the number of men and horses in Qin is less than half of that of Wei. The army has passed the pass, and Qin is considered a Wei territory." Wei Wangbao said seriously, "What's more, Han Xin is still eyeing outside Hangu Pass, and the Qin army can no longer take care of both.

Already."

Mentioning Han Xin, Wei Wangbao felt slightly uneasy.

To deal with Qin's strange objects, sending a small number of soldiers and horses to attack them is indeed the best method. In the past few days of fighting, Wei Wangbao did not see Chen Ping use cannon again.

But Wei Wangbao always felt that Han Xin was stalling for time. This time he sent Li Shang to inform Han Xin to attack quickly. Not only did he not hear any movement, even Li Shang did not return...

Does Han Xin really want to rebel?

The two of them seemed to have thought of something, and they were silent for a long time.

Although the Henan Kingdom surrendered to the Western Wei Dynasty, it was currently taking orders from Han Xin. If Han Xin rebelled, it would be a big deal if he did not attack Qin, but it would be troublesome to counterattack the Western Wei Dynasty.

"We have been delayed for several days and cannot wait any longer. Brother Wang needs to capture the important city of Qin tomorrow. Even if Ziying arrives with reinforcements from other countries, it will be too late." The cloaked man reminded.

"Reinforcements?" King Bao of Wei couldn't help but laugh and said, "Brother Wang, must you be worrying too much? There is still a vassal state in this world that can help Qin. I'm afraid Ziying won't be able to deal with the disobedient Bashu soldiers. Ziying has no backup.

"

"Don't be careless!"

The cloaked man felt disturbed and stood up suddenly, "I'm afraid there will be changes tomorrow, why don't we send troops tonight! Since Wang Xiang has gone eastward, Wang Di can send tens of thousands of troops to go westward. The Wei Dynasty is coming from the north.

, If Wang Xiang helps the Wei State cross the river, the Wei State will be able to connect the territory and be prepared for danger!"

"Tonight?"

"Exactly tonight!"

Although King Bao of Wei felt that the man in the cloak was too cautious, he would not disobey him. Most of the achievements in capturing dozens of cities in Wei back then were due to the man in the cloak.

"Then it will be as Brother Wang said." Wei Wangbao stood up and said, "Brother Wang, please go and rest. Brother Wang will go west tonight!"

King Bao of Wei walked out of the tower in a hurry. The man in the cloak looked at his back and sighed slightly.

"Don't be anxious when you should be. Don't ever end up like Gui."

King Bao of Wei sent an envoy to ask for Mrs. Bo without consulting him, so Ziying became hostile to the Western Wei Dynasty. If he followed his plan and pretended to form an alliance with the Qin State after capturing Changshan, the Western Wei soldiers would not have to go northward and follow his plan.

When the State of Zhai entered the Qin Dynasty, the troops marching westward were still blocked on the other side of the river.

After a while, the man in the cloak pushed the door open and came out.

The soldiers of the Western Wei Dynasty hurriedly bowed their heads and raised their hands, "See the King of Wei..."

"That was no longer the case more than ten years ago,"

The cloaked man raised his hand to interrupt the Western Wei soldiers, feeling that his name was ironic for some reason.

Wei Jia!

If he had the intention of acting as an agent, the Wei Kingdom finally fell in his hands. He only served as King of Wei for two years, which was really like a short-term agent.

"We are just the surviving kings of the subjugated country. You don't need any big gifts." Wei Ji sighed, "Concentrate on garrisoning Pinyang. After this battle, you will all be ministers with meritorious service."

"promise!"

The soldiers of the Western Wei Dynasty responded and still bowed, and Wei Jia was not in the mood to remind him again.

Against the backdrop of the firelight, snowflakes drifted under the sunny sky.

Wei Jiu exhaled white air and stretched out his hand to pick it up. The snowflakes melted as soon as he touched it. The uneasiness in Wei Jiu's heart became more and more intense.

"I hope this trip can turn the situation around instead of returning without success."

"A person who has died once shouldn't sigh so long and short, right?"

The voice came from behind, and Wei Jie's pupils suddenly shrank.

"who?"

Wei Jiu turned around and shouted, only to see a white-haired old man standing aside with his back to him.

"You...when did you come up?" Wei Jia said in panic.

The soldiers of the Western Wei Dynasty came to Wei Jia's side and whispered in a low voice.

"It turns out that it's an elder from Qin who is dissatisfied with Ziying." Wei Jia's face was slightly calm, "I'm asking for a meeting during the war. Do you have a plan to defeat Xianyang?"

"The King of Wei leads his troops eastward and attacks directly. Relying on the strength of the troops to gain the upper hand, those who disobey will be punished and those who follow will be rewarded. Victory or failure all depends on God's will." The old man said calmly.

"Is this a ploy?" Wei Jia frowned and said, "Sir, are you here to tease me?"

"If you don't laugh, you are not a Taoist." The old man slowly stroked his beard, "I am not helping the Western Wei Dynasty to seek the country. I am just reminding you that this battle needs to be decided quickly. When Ziying comes back... the Western Wei Dynasty will be defeated."

"Will Wei be defeated? Sir, are you joking?" Wei Jia was shocked and puzzled, secretly doubting the purpose of this person's coming.

"In addition, Your Excellency, please quickly send someone to stop the King of Wei." The old man said sternly, "Ziying is not here, there is Lingfen in Qin, and if Chen Ping rushes westward, the King of Wei will be in danger."

"Sir, since you know this, why don't you go into the building and have a detailed discussion with me." Wei Jia stretched out his hand toward the tower.

"It's unnecessary. Your Excellency has an extraordinary strategy and I don't need to say anything more." The old man refused coldly and started to leave.

Wei Jia couldn't help but squint his eyes in thought.

If this person was sent by Chen Ping to deliberately delay the Western Wei war machine, this method was too clumsy.

If the two really are not helping each other, there is no need to come and say this.

It seems that in his heart, he still resented Qin and turned to Wei. But the old man didn't say much, fearing that he also had some feelings for Qin.

Wei Jia estimated the old man's age, and a name appeared in his mind.
