Chapter 939 The Logic Suddenly Made Sense! Qi Was Destroyed and Dai Fled, but the Qin Army Attacked Again!
Yan Liu murmured and expressed the thoughts of King Xi of Yan: "How could the situation in the world change so quickly?!"
King Xi of Yan and many generals of the Yan army nodded in agreement subconsciously.
It was hard for them to imagine that all that Li Ke said happened in just one month!
The anger of the king and ministers of Yan State was incoherent as they were hit by more and more important news one after another!
After more than ten breaths, Yan An finally regained his ability to speak and broke the strange silence.
"Although the world situation has changed suddenly, fortunately, it has nothing to do with my Great Yan."
Yan An said with some relief: "Although the King of Qi is cowardly and the King of Dai is shameless, the King of Dai did not order Dai Wu'an Jun to attack our army immediately after capturing the Qi army."
"Instead, he was blinded by hatred and chose to lead troops to attack Qin, and took the initiative to tear up the alliance with my Great Yan."
"In this way, my Great Yan no longer needs to help Dai attack Qin, and Qin will surely point its spearhead directly at the Dai army!"
"My Great Yan can sit back and watch the snipe and the clam fight and reap the benefits!"
"For my Great Yan, this is actually a happy event!"
Listening to Yan An's words, all the Yan generals came back to their senses.
Yes!
In this way, wouldn't the situation in the world return to the script that Yan State most expected?
The Dai State dragged the Qi army soldiers to fight to the death with the Qin State, and both sides were injured in the end, and the defeated party would be extremely weak.
Yan, which always preserves its strength, can suddenly send troops to attack the defeated party's lame leg and win easily!
Although every time Yan kicks the defeated party's lame leg, it will stumble.
However, this is the most favorable situation for Yan, and maybe Yan will win this battle!
All Yan generals bowed and shouted: "I congratulate the king!"
However, King Xi of Yan was not as optimistic as his ministers. Instead, he frowned and said: "I admit that even though my Great Yan warriors are brave and the people of Great Yan are united, there is still a big gap with Qin."
"The King of Dai will know which of the three countries is strong and which is weak."
"This time, Yan, Dai, and Qi formed an alliance because Qin was too powerful. Yan, Dai, and Qi must do everything they can to curb Qin's expansion. , leaving a way out for the Three Kingdoms. ”
“Now that Dai is facing a land dragon turning over, the country’s grain and grass must be scarce.”
“Qi has surrendered, and it is impossible for Dai to provide grain and grass. ”
“Since Dai is determined to attack Qin, why did it choose to tear up the alliance between Yan and Dai, and secretly take the Qi army to attack Qin without telling my army? ”
“Is the King of Dai really just competing with me for Qi’s troops, so he broke the alliance, lost the support of my Yan army, and didn’t borrow grain from my Great Yan?”
The more the King of Yan thought about it, the more confused his logic became.
The King of Dai chose to gamble everything and attack Qin fiercely because the land dragon turned over in Dai, and then what?
My Great Yan didn’t stop you!!!
Not only did I personally lead the Yan army to help, I might also lend grain and grass to keep the army running.
What did I do to your Dai army? Why did you have to leave without saying goodbye, tear up the alliance and attack Qin yourself?
Is it just because I am worried that I will compete with Dai for the 600,000 Qi troops? !
Uh... yes, I admit that I am very tempted by the 600,000 Qi troops.
But no matter how tempted I am, it will be after the war that I will seize the 600,000 Qi troops. It is unknown how many of the 600,000 Qi troops will be left after this war. Does it really matter which country they belong to?
Uh... yes, I admit that I may not wait until after the war to lobby the 600,000 Qi troops, or I may take the 600,000 Qi troops and run away, and immediately sign a ceasefire agreement with Qin, and take these 600,000 young and strong people to recuperate and fight again in the future...
Hmm~~~ The logic suddenly makes sense!
Yan Wangxi sighed sourly: "600,000 troops!"
"That's 600,000 troops!"
"Getting this army will indeed give people more confidence and arrogance!"
"If I can hold another 600,000 troops, I dare to turn to attack Qin!"
Sour!
King Xi of Yan was almost jealous when he thought that King Dai got 600,000 troops for nothing!
Li Ke said carefully: "Your Majesty, although the Lord of Dai Wu'an wanted to take all the Qi troops, many Qi troops were unwilling to return to Dai."
"On the way back, I encountered many Qi troops that fled privately, and gathered more than 43,000 Qi troops."
"According to my estimation, Dai can only gather 500,000 Qi troops at most this time, and as the Dai army marches and fights, there will definitely be a large number of Qi troops fleeing."
"Finally, the number of Qi soldiers who can obey the orders of King Dai may be around 400,000."
King Xi of Yan heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and said: "My dear minister, you led more than 43,000 Qi troops back?!"
"No wonder I saw the flags of the Qi army in the distance!"
"My dear minister, you are really the backbone of my Great Yan!"
Although these more than 43,000 soldiers still cannot make up for the losses of Yan in this battle, they can reduce the losses of Yan in this battle to an acceptable range.
More importantly, this is a young and strong man who was given for free!
Yan Wangxi never expected that Li Ke could not only escape back to Yan State, but also bring back such a great gift to Yan State!
Li Ke hurriedly bowed his hands: "I am ashamed, and I don't deserve the praise from the king!"
Yan Wangxi laughed loudly and said: "My dear, why are you ashamed?"
"My dear..."
Yan Wangxi was about to encourage him, but suddenly asked nervously: "My dear, do you have any other important matters to report?"
Li Ke shook his head and said: "That's all I know."
Yan Wangxi breathed a sigh of relief and continued to laugh loudly: "My dear, you have made contributions to the country, and I will definitely reward you heavily!"
Li Ke hurriedly bowed his hands with gratitude: "Minister, thank you, Your Majesty!"
After encouraging a few more words, King Xi of Yan said in a deep voice: "The information obtained by interrogating prisoners is credible, but not completely trustworthy."
"How can the grassroots soldiers know the major events of the country?"
"Since the King of Dai chose to deceive me and seize the troops of the allied country as soon as the allied country was defeated, it is enough to show that this person is a rat without faith and loyalty."
"If the King of Dai can get 600,000 Qi troops and use them at will, his determination to attack Qin may be firm."
"But the King of Dai can only get 400,000 or 500,000 Qi troops who are not loyal, but I think his order to attack Qin may not be true!"
"We, Great Yan, must be on guard!"
"Order the entire army to take all the cities occupied by the coalition forces of Zhuo and Zhuo."
"The army will withdraw the camp, return to the court, and reorganize the border defense of Great Yan!"
King Xi of Yan did not think that the King of Dai had the intention to attack Yan, but no one could say that this possibility did not exist.
Since this is possible, and the King of Dai has torn up the alliance before, King Xi of Yan can lead his army back to the country with a clear conscience and sit on the mountain to watch the tigers fight!
Li Ke and other Yan ministers all bowed: "Yes!"
As soon as the call fell, a group of messengers rode back on horseback, shouting from a distance: "Your Majesty!"
"The Qin army is attacking!!!"
The king and ministers of Yan State all looked back and saw billowing dust rising in the distance.
Trying to look through the dust and continue to look far away, you can faintly see the Qin army flags fluttering in the wind approaching quickly!
King Xi of Yan: (°Д°)
Yan State ministers and generals: !!!
Yan Wangxi's face instantly turned pale: "Damn it! Damn it!"
"Qi was destroyed and Dai fled, but the Qin army came to attack again?!"
"This is the enemy of the coalition forces, why leave my Great Yan alone to resist it!"
"The King of Dai and the King of Qi have harmed my Great Yan deeply!!!"
Gathering the troops of the three countries can only confront the Qin army.
As a result, now the King of Qi surrendered, the Dai army ran away with the Qi army, and the Qin army came again!
The Qin army that was resisted by the troops of the three countries in the past now needs to be resisted by the Yan army alone.
Isn't this a pure trap!
Yan An asked anxiously: "My king, how should our army respond?!"
Yan Wangxi subconsciously wanted to send someone to ask Li Mu, but in a moment he realized that Li Mu had already run away.
Cursing inwardly, King Xi of Yan gave an order: "Abandon the camp and march north with the whole army!"
"Retreat to Lishi City!"
"Thank you, Lord Li, to go to Qin immediately and bring my handwritten letter to Qin to ask for peace!"
Faced with such a battle situation, King Xi of Yan made the decision without any hesitation.
How can our Great Yan fight such a tough battle!
Isn't this a joke on the lives of our Great Yan soldiers!
Li Ke said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty!"
"Before the King of Qin ordered Qin Chang'an to attack fiercely, Qin Chang'an had repeatedly failed to restrain his desire to attack, and successively destroyed the four countries of Han, Wei, Chu, and Zhao."
"This time the King of Qin was furious and ordered Qin Chang'an to attack Dai, weaken Yan, and destroy Qi!"
"Less than half a month after the King of Qin issued this order, Qin Chang'an destroyed Qi in one battle, and at the same time, he did not forget to order Dilong to attack Dai, causing Dai to be on the verge of extinction."
"According to Qin Chang'an's character, I think he will be pleased with the King of Qin's strategy to weaken Yan Execute, severely weaken our Great Yan until our Great Yan will perish!"
"If you want to persuade Qin Chang'an Jun to withdraw his troops, it will be extremely difficult."
"And our Great Yan has repeatedly asked for peace with Qin, so Qin's attitude towards our Great Yan's request for peace has become increasingly unfriendly."
"Last time when our Great Yan asked for peace with Qin, we paid a heavy price and ceded the entire Du Kang area!"
"This time our Great Yan asks for peace again, I am afraid that I will not be able to complete the king's order because of my incompetence!"
Listening to Li Ke's words, King Xi of Yan also had some teeth pain.
Today, with the circulation of various news, people in the world no longer doubt that the war of Qin's destruction of Wei was Ying Zheng's strategy of repairing the plank road in the open and crossing Chencang in secret, but clearly know that the wars of Qin's destruction of Han and Qin's destruction of Wei were all organized by Ying Chengjiao.
And this is the result of Ying Zheng constantly issuing royal orders to restrain Ying Chengjiao in the rear.
But now, Ying Zheng has let go!
He even gave the order to kill fiercely!
Yan Wangxi couldn't imagine how crazy Ying Chengjiao would be now!
With the credibility of Yan State and Ying Chengjiao's hatred for Yan Dan, it would be so difficult to stop such a killer!
Yan Wangxi retreated while carefully weighing the pros and cons, and finally said with heartache: "I also know what you said."
"I was deceived by the Dai envoy, and just followed Dai to attack Qin."
"Now I know my mistake!"
"To make up for the loss of Qin State, I am willing to cede..."
After hesitating for a while, Yan Wangxi finally uttered two words slowly: "Jicheng!"
Jicheng is the capital of Yan State!
If there is a choice, Yan Wangxi really doesn't want to give up his capital.
But there is no way. Five cities were ceded the day before yesterday and ten cities were ceded yesterday. The border of Yan State has retreated to not far from Jicheng. If he wants to cede cities for peace today, he can only cede Jicheng!
King Xi of Yan was in agony, but he could do nothing about it!
Suppressing his grief, King Xi of Yan hardened his heart, closed his eyes, and said in hatred: "Jicheng, Lishicheng, Jicheng, and Changcheng to the south, all of them are given to Qin!"
"I only ask Qin and Yan to stop fighting!"
