Chapter 212: The Prestige of the State of Yan's Pro-Zhao Sect

The King of Yan was in a bad mood, which could be seen from the muscles on his face that kept trembling slightly on his beard.

As the only vassal state of the Ji surname among the seven heroes of the Warring States Period, the King of Yan has never taken the other six countries into consideration.

After all, in terms of orthodoxy, Yan State is the real "royal clan". Other Zhao family, Tian family, Xiong family, are all rebellious!

Even the so-called Ji monarchs of the Wei Kingdom in South Korea were just some of the most suspicious people who usurped the throne and plotted against rebellion!

In general, in this dirty world, only our great Yan Kingdom is the only clear stream, a symbol of justice, and will surely rectify the troubles, let the world return to Yan Kingdom, and let the light of the Ji surname return to this land.

The King of Yan had great ambitions, or ambitions.

For this ambition, the King of Yan sent troops to conquer Donghu and Jizi Korea repeatedly, expanding the strength of Yan State to the Liaodong Peninsula.

However, the glory of foreign wars cannot cover up the dimness of civil wars. Not long ago, in a war where the King of Yan felt that he would definitely win, the Yan Kingdom actually lost!

Li Fu, the deputy general of the Yan army, was actually defeated by the Zhao army with a surprise attack and almost wiped out the entire army, even Li Fu himself was captured.

To be honest, if Li Fu hadn't been the captive, the furious King of Yan would definitely be the first to chop off his head.

It is precisely because of this crushing defeat and the rampage of the winter tiger that Yan State suffered extremely painful losses in this battle. It was a large army of 200,000 when it set out, but when it returned, there were only less than 110,000 people left.

After paying such a great price, what Yan State has obtained is just a small piece of land like Wuyuan City.

It's like taking 100 yuan to buy something, but I only bought a cup of Coke, which is a big cup...

A total loss-making business.

What made the King of Yan even more frustrated was that because of the loss of so much, the King of Yan had to take the initiative to ask for peace from the people of Zhao.

For a moment, the King of Yan really wanted to simply push the whole country and fight with the people of Zhao.

But this thought only changed a little in the mind of the King of Yan and disappeared.

Because the King of Yan knew very well that even if Yan was suppressed by the whole country, he could not beat Zhao.

Yan State is still the weak Yan State, but Zhao State is no longer the Zhao State that was back then.

Today, Zhao State occupies most of the former land of Jin State and is a super power that is known as the overlord of the world as Qin State.

If you can't beat it, you have to admit defeat. There is nothing you can do about it.

···

These thoughts in my mind made the expression on King Yan’s face even more gloomy. After half a day, the king of Yan spoke with this gloomy expression: "How do you guys think about the border affairs?"

What happened at the border?

Just this morning, the King of Yan received a report from the Yanzhao border. A Zhao army of about a thousand people raided a stronghold on the Yan army's border and massacred dozens of Yan troops guarding this stronghold.

For this matter, the King of Yan held this meeting.

In front of the King of Yan was a group of important officials of Yan State, and there was only one Li Fu who was captured by the people of Zhao State - of course, if possible, the King of Yan hoped that Li Fu, the idiot, would never come back and die in Zhao State.

After hearing the cold words of the King of Yan, the ministers present subconsciously turned their attention to Gongsun Cao, the prime minister of Yan.

God is the second one, Gongsun Cao, this is the truth of Yan State.

However, Gongsun Cao, who had gray hair, was sitting there all the time, with his small eyes half open and half closed, and he didn't even know whether he was asleep or awake.

Everyone was helpless and had to turn their attention to Gao Yang Jun Rongfu.

Rong Fen was the chief general of the last Yan army to go to war, but because the defeat was the deputy general Li Fu, and letting Rong Fen Li Fu divide the troops into two groups was also the order of the King of Yan, Rong Fen did not receive any punishment, but was scolded by the King of Yan without any pain.

Rong Qi spoke without any hesitation: "King, this is a provocation of Zhao State! The king should not be underestimated. He must send troops to conquer Zhao State, revitalize the power of Yan State, and make the King of Zhao apologize!"

As soon as Rong Feng finished speaking, a sneer that was so obvious that it was heard sounding in the hall.

Rong Qi was furious and turned to look at the person who was laughing: "Jun Chang! What do you mean?"

The son of Le Yi, Chang Guojun, had a very obvious smile on his young face: "Jun Gaoyang, I am not laughing at others, but my stupidity!"

This sentence can be said to be a naked slap in the face.

Rong Qi was so angry that he slapped the table in front of him and stood up, his eyes wide open and shouted at Lejian: "Children Lejian, are you tired of living?"

Le Jian sneered, and without saying that he also raised the case: "Old man Rong, am I still afraid that you will not succeed?"

The two of them glared at each other, and they looked like they were going to fight if they had a disagreement.

"Enough!" A loud shout sounded from the mouth of King Yan: "You and you are both important officials, but what kind of morality does this behavior have? Let me sit down!"

Lejian and Rongfu both snorted heavily when they heard this, then sat down and turned their heads, but they didn't look at each other anymore.

King Yan also felt a headache when he looked at the scene in front of him.

Since Rongfu was defeated, the power of the pro-Zhao faction of Yan State has begun to grow rapidly, while the pro-Qin faction, which originally advocated that Qin destroy Zhao, was greatly hit. Therefore, the two factions are now comparable in the political arena of Yan State, and the conflict is becoming increasingly fierce.

The two of them had a quarrel in front of King Yan, Rongfu and Changguojun Le, and they had a quarrel in front of King Yan.

King Yan pressed his irritability and said to Lejian: "Mr. Chang, what do you think?"

Le Jian glanced at Rongfu with a contemptuous look. Seeing that the other party ignored him, he turned toward the King of Yan and said, "Return to the King, the reason why I spoke just now is not to offend the King, but someone's remarks are too stupid! If a strong Qin State cannot defeat the Zhao army in Changping, how can Yan State be the Zhao army? Previously, the Zhao army had only a partial army and broke into Dai County. If King of Zhao raised his troops to the north, Yan would be destroyed by Zhao's hands!"

Rong Qi couldn't help but shout, "It's simply nonsense! If Zhao attacked Yan, how could Qin State sit and watch?"

Le Jian immediately refuted: "Rong flies, have you forgotten that the two southeastern counties of Qin are still under the hands of Chu! Now, the reason why King Ji of Qin does not attack Chu is afraid of Zhao's support for Chu. If Zhao attacks Yan, wouldn't Qin attack Chu? Qin cannot get an inch of land to save Yan, but Qin can attack Chu but can conquer the city and stole the land. Do you think what should King Ji of Qin choose between these two?"

Rong Qi opened his mouth, but after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't think of something that could be refuted, so he could only shut his mouth helplessly.

At this time, there is no doubt that the winner of this debate will be.

So the King of Yan spoke to Lejian and asked, "Mr. Chang, in your opinion, what should I do?"

Lejian said: "The king, for the present plan, the only way is to appease Zhao, and to order Zhao to attack Qin in the west or attack Qi in the east, so that Yan will be at peace."

"Please?" King Yan frowned: "How to appease? Could it be that Wu Huan is going to return the State of Zhao?"

The King of Yan was very reluctant to return Wuyuan City to Zhao State.

If that is true, then Yan State would have lost its troops out of thin air in this war, but achieved nothing.
