182. Chapter 181 Planning Wu Qi

 Chapter 181 Planning Wu Qi

After Huai State annexed several small countries in succession, the Great War in the Central Plains came to an end. Wu Qi commanded an army of 50,000 and marched thousands of miles to defeat the Qi and Chu coalition forces in one battle, which shocked the world.

The power of Wei's military force shocked the world.

After the Wei State captured the Marquis of Qi, they ceded a large area of ​​Qi State's land, and then released the Marquis of Qi. The three Jin alliances simultaneously went south to attack the Chu State. The Chu State was defeated and did not dare to compete with it, so it had to cede land to seek peace.

Jin thus obtained a large area of ​​land.

But when it was time to distribute the land, Wei wanted to connect the land it occupied Qi with Wei's land, so it chose a large piece of land between Zhangshui and the Yellow River. However, Zhao did not want Wei to get this land.

, because this place poses a great threat to the capital of Zhao State.

However, after seeing the power of Wei's soldiers, Zhao Hou did not dare to forcefully fight with Wei even though he was very dissatisfied.

The Marquis of Wei naturally saw the dissatisfaction of the Marquis of Zhao. The Marquis of Zhao actually built the capital here because he wanted to go south to the Central Plains and annex the Wei Kingdom.

Naturally, the Marquis of Wei was unwilling. This time, he took advantage of the opportunity of dividing the land to defeat the Marquis of Zhao. In the past, Zhao and Qi were competing for the land of Zhangshui, but now it became Wei's land. As a result, Zhao was operating in Zhangshui.

All these years were wasted.

The Marquis of Wei established Ye City on the south bank of the Zhang River to block Zhao's southward march. This severely damaged Zhao's strategy of marching south to the Central Plains. At the same time, the establishment of Ye City also put Zhao's capital, Zhongmou, under siege.

In front of Zhongmu in Zhao State is Chaoge and to the east is Tangyin, both of which are important military towns of Wei State. To the west of Zhongmu is the Taihang Mountains. There is no room for development. How can the capital be built in such a place? Zhao Hou had to move the capital to Zhongmu.

Arrive in Handan.

At the same time, the Marquis of Wei continued to win over the Marquis of Han, forcing the State of Chu to abandon the State of Zheng, and creating conditions for South Korea to annex the State of Zheng.

After a great battle, Wei became the biggest winner in the war.

After the Wei State passed this reform, its strength rapidly increased and it became the new overlord. On the other hand, the corporal Wei Hou Lixian, regardless of his background, attracted a large number of scholars to join him.

Got to get stronger.

The Marquis of Wei gave great importance to these talents. He appointed Wu Qi as the governor of Xihe County, in charge of Wei Wu soldiers, and Ximen Bao was entrusted with the important task of governing Yecheng.

For a time, Wei's industries were prosperous and its military was strong. Wang Pu was also very surprised after receiving the battle report from the Central Plains.

Although he knew the power of Legalist hegemony, he never expected that the Wei State, which was only one-third of the land of the Jin State, could burst out with such amazing energy in the land of the Four Wars. The Wei State could actually train in military force.

One hundred thousand Wei soldiers came out.

If Wu Qi is allowed to attack Huai, without using the divine weapon of destiny, the Huai State will have to cede territory and retreat to avoid its edge. It can only rely on territory, numbers and logistics, and fight hard to kill him. But if He

If he plays against each other, Sun Wu will end up in Chu.

"Wu Qi is truly a military genius!" Wang Pu couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the information sent back by the Central Plains spy.

"Fifty thousand Wei warriors roamed the world, and they were like Sun Wuzi in those days."

There was silence in the Huai Kingdom Hall for a while. After everyone read these battle reports, they felt a pressure like a mountain rushing towards them. Facing such a strong military man, who dares to say that he can withstand it?

"Do you know who Wu Qi studied under?" Wang Pu asked.

"Your Majesty, we have already investigated." Wang Zong next to him said: "Wu Qi just started to study Confucianism, but was later driven away by his master Zeng Shen. Then he obtained some military classics, which were like treasures. He studied and studied them painstakingly until he became an official.

Wei State."

"Self-taught?" Wang Pu asked in surprise.

"Yes, if the secret guard is not mistaken, then he is self-taught!" Wang Zong said.

"What a genius!" Wang Pu sighed.

Relying only on some books and without any guidance, Wu Qi was able to train Wei soldiers and command the army to fight so sharply. He was truly a genius.

"In the academy, there are no less than a hundred people who have learned the art of military strategism, but not even half of them have achieved this level of achievement." Wang Pu said. The art of military strategism places great emphasis on qualifications. Other schools of thought can rely on hard work and rote memorization.

If you memorize it, you will gain something, but if you want to memorize the art of war by rote, when you go to the battlefield, you will directly end up with one incompetent general and the whole army will be exhausted.

Therefore, if a military strategist wants to achieve something, it all depends on his talent. If he doesn't have talent, even if he learns the military strategist's ways, he will only be at the level of a five hundred lord or a thousand-man general at most.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Wu Qi is greedy for money, lustful, and focused on fame and fortune. Why don't you go here and lure him to join me in the Huai Kingdom?" A nearby prince suggested.

"No!" Wang Zong interrupted directly.

"What's wrong? Although this person has bad conduct, as long as he can"

"Has bad conduct?" Wang Pu smiled and said, "Do you think he has bad conduct?"

"Isn't it?" Several other clan members asked in confusion.

Wang Pu shook his head. The peaceful environment of the Huai Kingdom's palace made the children of the palace a little naive about the political struggle for power. Wang Pu also felt a little emotional, but if the children of the palace were allowed to fight for power like other vassal states, you would live and die.

The bloody storm is like raising a poison, so forget it.

Politics can be learned, and the official records of the internal struggles of various countries are enough for them to learn, but if people grow crooked, they will be hopeless.

"You guys say he is greedy for money and lustful. At that time, he distributed more than a million acres of land in the land of Xihe. If he had the intention, he could easily obtain a lot of wealth, but how did he do it? Not even a trace of it was tainted!"

"How can such a person be greedy for money? His so-called greed for money is just to show the king! If you believe it, you are really stupid."

"As for lustful, his life is simple, he shares the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, and he has no concubines at home. How can he be considered lustful? He is also greedy for money and lustful on purpose!"

Wang Pu said with a smile: "As for fame and fortune, maybe there is. However, in this world, among the scholars who serve in various countries, except for a few who are seeking revenge in their hearts, how many of them are not doing it for fame and fortune?"

"Wu Qi has such a great talent and has made such great achievements. Doesn't he deserve the fame and fortune?"

After hearing what Wang Pu said, everyone agreed with it.

"But if that's the case, wouldn't Wu Qi be invulnerable? How can we invite him to Huai Kingdom?"

"Hey, Wu Qi himself may be invulnerable, but others are not!" Wang Zong said with a smile.

Wang Pu heard this and looked over quickly.

"Your Majesty, Wu Qi's contribution to the Wei Kingdom can be ranked first, but he is at odds with the Crown Prince of Wei." Wang Zong said: "The Crown Prince also has a history of meritorious deeds, but unlike his father Wei Hou, he values ​​​​more

Origin is not important to Wu Qi."

"Now the Marquis of Wei trusts Wu Qi, but when the Marquis of Wei grows old and the prince comes to the throne, and Wu Qi and the prince are at odds, as long as we use the strategy of alienation, the Marquis of Wei will help us force Wu Qi away, and then we can naturally invite him to come to Huai

country."
