Seeing the hesitation of King Yan, Zhong Yu did not press too hard. After all, this was a period of cooperation, and he still needed the contribution of the Yan State. The remaining 60,000 troops of the Yan State were very important to the current coalition forces. a force.

However, it cannot be forced, but it does not mean that it cannot be induced.

Now, the Yan State, after being ravaged by the imperial state, first lost half of its territory and population, and then when it was licking its wounds, it was forced to drag 100,000 troops to the front line to fight against the behemoth of the Qin State.

After all this trouble, the Yan State can be said to be hanging on to its last breath. If it were not surrounded by allies and enemies, it would have perished long ago.

Therefore, Yan State urgently needs to restore its strength through external plunder, and at least make its territory wider.

"King Yan, today's Yan State is already one or two of the weakest among all the countries. If we don't think about changes, we may be close to destruction!" With a sigh, Zhong Yu said to King Yan.

Hearing the words of the man next to him, King Yan was shocked. Could it be that he wanted to force him to promote Big Hammer? Most of the situation our country, Yan, has become is not caused by you.

Thinking like this, King Yan slowly began to feel unbalanced and resentful.

"Although the big hammer has merit, a reward of some money, wine and meat is enough! If the reward is too much, I'm afraid it will cause dissatisfaction from others and add a lot of worries in vain!" King Yan said lightly.

Now King Yan has become smarter. He knows that although the threats to him from Yuguo still exist, they are all hidden in the dark and cannot be exposed openly.

After all, the Yan State is one of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, and it is the country that has existed for the longest time. It has been around for 800 years now.

Now that he has joined the alliance, he belongs to the same camp as the person in front of him. If he dares to attack him, it will definitely cause the entire alliance to become alienated, and complete collapse is not impossible.

Therefore, to a large extent, the Yan State does not need to be afraid of the Yu State, because the Yun State needs its own Yan State to cheer for him and provide people and efforts.

"Let's put aside the reward of the big hammer for now. Let's talk about how to find a way out after the war in the Yan Kingdom! Today, the Yan Kingdom has a small area and a sparse population. It is not much better than South Korea, so for If you want to continue to survive in this troubled world, you must make some decisions to change the status quo!" After laughing a few times, Zhong Yu put aside the big hammer and began to talk to King Yan about world affairs.

"Don't you, the lonely king, know what the state of Yan is like now? However, the state of Yan is weak and has done nothing else! Is your country willing to return the three Liaodong counties of the state of Yan to me?" After hearing what the king said, he asked What touched him was that he remembered that the person in front of him was the main culprit of Yan State's current situation.

"Haha, King Yan is joking. The three counties of Liaodong were obtained with the blood of our country's warriors. How can we just abandon them! However, although the three counties of Liaodong have no hope, the world is so big and the territory is so vast. Why doesn't King Yan go there? Where is Nankan?" After a few chuckles, Zhong Yu avoided the question of returning the land and changed the subject.

"Is the land that your Majesty is talking about the current Qin State? But after it is conquered, it will be thousands of miles away from the Yan State. How can our Yan State effectively control it? Sooner or later it will still be the territory of other countries!" King Yan sneered a few times in the same way, He is not stupid. Although Qin's land is good, it is too far away from Yan.

If the King of Hell really takes over these lands, not only the Yan Kingdom will send troops to guard them. It is also necessary to prevent the guarding generals from leaving the Yan Kingdom, having disloyal intentions, and directly turning the land into their own.

How could King Yan do such a thankless task

"I, of course, know the difficulties of the Yan State. Didn't our imperial state just abandon these lands? It's because they are too far apart and difficult to govern! But Qin State is not good. Did the king forget that there is another one in the south of the Yan State? As for a big country, it has three thousand miles of fertile land and millions of people!" Zhong Yu named the topic, which was also the bait he used to seduce King Yan.

"Qi State, does your Majesty want to provoke a war with Qi State? Our alliance has no other troops!" King Yan was shocked when he heard what Zhong Yu meant.

Although today's Qin State no longer has the momentum to dominate the world as the two emperors of the East and West with Qin State, and was almost destroyed by the previous six-nation coalition, it also allowed the Yan State to occupy most of the Qi State. After the six kingdoms' ravages , the vitality is severely damaged.

However, after more than 40 years of cultivation, Qi State has slowly regained its vitality, with a population of about 3 million, and a military strength of 400,000, dominating China.

If the alliance still wants to provoke a war against Qi State, it will definitely provoke a powerful enemy. Qi State mobilizes the whole country and has more than 600,000 troops. It is really not something that the current alliance can fight against.

"The King of Yan has said that now he is unable to deal with the Qin State. How can I provoke Qi, a great enemy?" Shaking his head, Zhong Yu rejected the King of Yan's speculation.

"Oh, since Your Highness doesn't want to conquer Qi, how can he get the three thousand miles of fertile land in the south?" King Yan frowned, with a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes. He thought Zhong Yu was teasing him.

"Why don't you think about it, Your Highness King Yan? The current war is nearing its end. As long as the battles on the upper, middle and lower fronts are completed, the alliance and the Qin State will cease their troops. As long as the alliance can maintain an undefeated situation, even if the battle is completed, If there is a tie, Qin will inevitably retreat back to Hangu Pass, secretly recuperate and lick its wounds. By then, won’t our alliance be free? Qi has stood behind and watched the good show for so long. It's time to make him cry!" Zhong Yu chuckled and revealed his next bait to seduce the Six Nations.

"But, can our alliance win now? It is still unknown, and even if we win, how much power will we have to attack Qi?" King Yan's heart has already moved a little, but he is confused about the future. He still hesitated.

"We naturally have the strength. After defeating Qin, we should be able to capture Sanchuan County. By then, this can be given to South Korea. With the addition of this county, South Korea's military strength should be able to return to 100,000.

As for the State of Wei, although it has suffered heavy losses now, it should be no problem to provide 200,000 people by then. The situation of the State of Zhao is similar to that of the State of Wei.

As for the Chu State, it has a vast territory and abundant resources. The few soldiers who died now are nothing to him. It is more than enough for more than 300,000 people. As for Yan State, it should be no problem to deploy an army of 200,000 in Yan State! "After talking in detail, Zhong Yu slowly stated his request to form an alliance again.
