Chapter 19 The first section of the sixteen-character formula shocked King Qi Wei

After breaking up with Su Qin in Luoyang, Zhang Yi finally arrived in Linzi. Zhang Yi was no stranger to Linzi, as soon as he entered the city, he went straight to the palace.When the car stopped at Gongmen Square, he told Fei Yun: "The car is parked here, you can go shopping, Linzi is very lively." Fei Yun smiled and said: "Hey, let's go shopping ? I’ll sleep in the car and wait for you.” Zhang Yi said “It’s up to you” and went to the palace gate. Zhang Yi is full of yearning for Qi State. In his view, Qi State is the hub of great changes in the world, and Qi Wei Wang Tian Yinqi is the only remaining number one hero in the world.Tian Yinqi has been on the throne for more than 30 years and has done three major things, each of which has changed the pattern of the world!The first one was to purge the government with an iron fist, which started the second reform trend in the Warring States Period, which led to the Han Qin Reform; the second one was to fight against the hegemony of the Wei State, and fought two big victories in the battles of encircling Wei to save Zhao and besieging Wei to save Han. The hegemony of the Wei State plummeted, and the world changed from the Wei State's monopoly to the Qi, Qin, and Wei powers. The tide of civilization naturally shifted from Wei to Qi.In the past thirty years, the Qi State has been able to leap from a middle-level warring state to the top power, and it is naturally King Qi Wei who has turned the world around.Qin Xiaogong died young, and among the monarchs in the world today, King Qi Wei became the well-deserved number one hero.It was precisely because of the strength of Qi State and the wisdom of King Qi Wei that Zhang Yi chose Qi State.

Zhang Yi's actions are calm and confident, because he is aware of the current crisis of Qi State, and has also planned a countermeasure to resolve the crisis. It just depends on how the old King Qi treats him?Zhang Yi will not come to Qi. King Qi Wei was strolling through the palace gardens when a secret report came: The Yue Kingdom in the southeast is secretly gathering an army to seize the Langya region in the south of Qi Kingdom!He suddenly became bored, watching the weeping willows swaying gently on the sparkling lake, it was like a dream.After taking the throne for more than thirty years, he felt tired for the first time, and felt guilty for the first time.Are you old?In my fifties, I am in full swing; are you tired?There is obviously still a lot of energy in my heart and I can't use it.

After wandering for half a day, King Qi Wei finally understood himself - what disturbed him the most was that he didn't have a clever strategy for hegemony.Qi State is undoubtedly powerful in his hands, but if that's all, you, Tian Yinqi, are mediocre after all!In terms of achievements in strengthening the country, Qin Xiaogong is second to none in the world.To be honest, that's called rushing to catch up.The foundation you Tian Yinqi inherits is much stronger than Qin Xiaogong. Compared with Ying Quliang, you can at most be second; compared with Wei Huiwang's wine bag and rice bag?It's too useless, but you don't want to be useless, Qi State is now on par with Wei State.When it comes to wealth and military prestige, it can't be said that Wei Guo is slightly better.Only by raising the Qi State to a higher level and completing the unified hegemony, you Tian Yinqi can be regarded as the number one hero in the world, and you have made the number one achievement in the ages!Otherwise, you can only be a second-class Mingjun.But where to start?

Now Qin, Wei and Qi stand side by side, facing an old overlord and a new power, how should Qi be manipulated?King Qi Wei couldn't think of a satisfactory countermeasure.The former general Tian Ji left, and Sun Bin, who had insight into the world, left without saying goodbye and went to live in seclusion.There is only one old prime minister, Zou Ji, who is good at dealing with state affairs, but he has never had a big plan, and many discussions with him have failed to reach the point.Many parties sent personnel to inquire about Sun Bin's whereabouts, but they found nothing, which made King Qi Wei very unhappy.

Now the country of Yue is about to invade again!Although the State of Yue is not a strong enemy, it is also a headache for the State of Qi, which has not fought a war for more than ten years.Don't be afraid of losing, but be afraid of getting entangled.Don't look at this country of Yue, which is about to be forgotten by people. It has high mountains, deep waters, and dense forests. If you want to hit him, you can't find it. If he wants to hit you, a large area will suddenly appear. It was handed over to two powerful opponents.How could King Qi Wei endure this situation?However, how to make an overall plan, it is difficult to weigh and make a decision in a hurry.King Wei of Qi once again thought of Tian Ji and Sun Bin's appearance when he was there, and he couldn't help deeply regretting his mishandling of Zou Ji and Tian Ji's opposition. The biggest mistake I made, my heart hurts when I think about it...

"Zhang Yi, a famous scholar of the Wei Kingdom, please see my king." The servant hurried over to report. "Zhang Yi?" King Qi Wei was taken aback, "Is it Zhang Yi who scolded Mencius?" "Report to my king: it is that Zhang Yi." "Okay! Sir, please go to the Maoting by the lake!" The servant hurried away.King Qi Wei immediately ordered the maid to set up a simple banquet in the Mao Pavilion, and he wanted to have a drink and talk with this world's number one who could scold Mencius.In the eyes of King Qi Wei, a person who can scold Mencius down must not be an idle person.Who is Mencius?The world's number one eloquent master, the world's number one defender of Taoism, extremely lofty, profound, and extremely wise, but he always talks endlessly when meeting opponents from a high position, and few opponents can go three or five rounds.This was witnessed by King Qi Wei many times in Jixia Academy.Even the unparalleled rookie Xun Kuang was only a draw with Mencius, let alone other figures.But this Zhang Yi, in the Wei Wang Palace in Daliang, used an eye for an eye, scolding Mencius almost to the point of losing his anger!Even King Wei Hui, who always liked to laugh in front of celebrities, became angry from embarrassment, which shows his sharp words.

A month ago, when this story spread to the state of Qi, some people said that Zhang Yi was being mean, but King Qi Wei couldn't help laughing: "Okay! There are such people in the world, and Master Meng will stop if he dominates!" Qi Wei Wang understands that Mencius is not a kind person when it comes to being harsh and mean. He has never been soft-spoken in denouncing and belittling, and he is often the first to attack. Why blame Zhang Yi alone?Unexpectedly, this Zhang Yi actually came to Qi State today, so he has to observe carefully, if he is really a celebrity and a great talent, then God has eyes!

In a short while, I saw a black-clothed scholar walking on the grassy sidewalk under the weeping willows, with fluttering sleeves, a tall figure, no crown, and light steps, as if a black cloud floated from the green grass. come over. "What a character!" King Qi Wei admired secretly, and greeted him with a big smile: "It's very fortunate that Mr. Qi came to the country!" Zhang Yi also saw King Qi Wei coming to greet him from a distance, and felt very relieved in his heart.This old king is a well-known iron-faced monarch in the world. He is arrogant and fierce by nature. He never gives face to his subjects by laughing and cursing. He rarely shows appreciation to the famous scholars in Jixia Academy. , so that people like Mencius and Sun Bin are greeted like a guest.Now, the old king got up to greet him in person. Although it was just a lakeside greeting, not to mention a big gift, Zhang Yi already had a premonition that what he expected was right. Thinking that King Qi Wei was very close, Zhang Yi hurriedly Respectfully bowed deeply: "Wei Guo Zhang Yi, see King Qi."

"Sir, you are rigid." Qi Wei Wang laughed and supported Zhang Yi, and took his hand: "Come, come, take a seat in the Maoting Pavilion." The kindness and boldness are like seeing an old friend. Zhang Yi was originally free and unrestrained, and Qi Wei Wang's actions did not feel flattered or embarrassed at all, but Ren Qi Wei Wang held hands with him and came to Maoting.This thatched pavilion is located under the weeping willows by the lake, with bamboo forests whirling on three sides, and grassy fields under its feet. The bluestones in the spacious pavilion are used as tables and straw mats are used as cushions, but it is extremely simple and elegant.After entering the pavilion and taking a seat, I feel the cool breeze blowing in the air, and the heat of the heat suddenly disappears.

"What a mao pavilion, it's fascinating." Zhang Yi couldn't help admiring. King Qi Wei smiled and said, "Mister, do you know the name of this Maoting?" "Zhang Yi is taught." "Guoshi Pavilion. It's a pity that Guoshi Pavilion has been deserted for nearly twenty years." Qi Weiwang sighed. "Zhang Yi has no merit, why does the King of Qi treat him as a national scholar?" Suddenly, Zhang Yi felt that the old king was trying to exalt himself, and a shadow flashed in his heart. "When Daliang defeated Mencius, you can know your talent. Born as a Wei, and serve the country first, you can know your integrity. If you talk about the princes with a long-term plan, you can know your aspirations. If you have such a talent and integrity, how can you not treat him as a national scholar?" Qi Wei Wang's words are correct.

It was the first time that Zhang Yi was sincerely admired by the king of a great country, and he couldn't help feeling hot, and he bowed his hands generously: "The king of Qi treats Zhang Yi with a gentleman of the state, and Zhang Yi will repay the king of Qi with a soldier of the state." King Qi Wei personally poured a cup for Zhang Yi: "Come on, let's drink a cup together first, and cleanse the dust for the gentleman!" "Thank you, King Qi." When the two bronze barons touched each other, Zhang Yi drank it down. "Sir, you came from a long way, do you want to enter the Jixia Academy? Or enter the country as an official?" Zhang Yi couldn't help admiring King Qiwei's shrewdness from the bottom of his heart - he was clearly anxious about major national affairs in his heart, but he avoided talking about it. He asked your actual whereabouts first, which not only showed concern, but also tested your ambition; but more importantly, it was hidden. The most urgent embarrassment of the Qi State, but you want to test whether you are a great talent who truly sees the world?Ordinary scholars follow his topic and are keen on their own arrangements, so they are bound to be ignorant of Qi's crisis. If this is the case, this small banquet will come to an end, and the "national scholars" will become a thing of the past .With a flash in his mind, Zhang Yi bowed his hands and said: "Thank you, King Qi, for your concern. However, Zhang Yi didn't come here to study with high-ranking officials, but came here for the emergency of Qi State." "Oh?" King Qi Wei smiled in surprise: "A land of prosperity and peace, what is the emergency of Qi?" "Does King Qi know the story of a lost sheep on a crossroad?" Zhang Yi also smiled slightly. "Crossed a sheep? Please tell me, sir." "Yang Zi's neighbor lost a sheep. He invited many people to help him find it. He also asked Yang Zi to help him find it along a straight road. Yang Zi was surprised and asked: Why do so many people look for a sheep? The neighbor said: There are many forked roads. Yang Zi helped to find them. A whole day passed, and the sheep hunters met at the neighbor's house at night. Yang Zi asked: Who found the sheep? They all said no. Yang Zi was surprised and puzzled. The neighbor said: "Forked roads There was another divergent road in the middle, and I didn’t know why, so I had to come back. This is the so-called divergent road. Zhang Yi thinks that the divergent road can lead to the destruction of the sheep, and the divergent road can also lead to the destruction of the country. At present, the state of Qi is now on the right divergent road, does the King of Qi think so?” "Where is the Qi State's divergent road?" King Qi Wei stared at Zhang Yi with piercing eyes. "Qi has a great power, but no long-term strategy for hegemony. There is one forked road. There is great cause in the Central Plains in the west, and sea snakes are entangled in the south. Where do we go? If there is no decision, there are two forked roads. The road has many forks. There will be constant turmoil and sinking day by day. Yin Jian is not far away, in the world of Empress Xia. The decline of Wei State has only been in more than ten years." The words were concise and sharp, King Qi Wei looked solemn, got up and left the table, and bowed deeply: "Sir, teach me." Zhang Yi said calmly: "The long-term strategy of hegemony is first to deal with the three powers, and secondly to fight against the four countries. I have sixteen characters of Qi Wang Sizhi: unite Wei and lock Qin, and Qin respect Wei, unite Yanzhao in the north, and contain Chu and Han in the south." "Mister, please disassemble one or two." Qi Weiwang's spirit was lifted. "The power of the three powers: Qi State is on the coast of the East China Sea, Qin State is located in the west of Guanshan, and Wei State is located in the center of the Central Plains. Qin State and Qi State have rarely fought, but they are both emerging powers in the past 30 years. Great powers with strong power all have ambitious monarchs. Aiming to unify the Central Plains is the common aspiration of Qi and Qin. Only in this way, only Qin is the real and long-term enemy of Qi, while Wei is corrupt, corrupt, The outside world is strong but the middle is dry, and it is unbearable to threaten the world. However, this Wei State is an extremely important force for Qin Qi. To which side the Wei State falls, that side may gain a huge advantage in the Central Plains! Has always been hostile, so far, Qin State has not yet realized the importance of fighting for Wei State. At this time, it is the key to the hegemony of Qi State! It is one of them. Second, although Qin State is the real enemy of Qi State, when the great powers stand side by side, Qi State cannot feud with the mighty Qin State, but reconciliation is the top priority, try to dilute the true colors of the two countries for hegemony, and declare to Qin State that they are repairing Wish. In this way, Qin State’s fire coal group was pushed to Wei State. The root of uniting and respecting Wei State is to use Wei State as Qi State’s stone and hit Qin State’s heel! If this strategy is followed, three Among the strong, Qi is sure to win." Zhang Yi talked eloquently, obviously thinking it through. "Okay! What about the character behind?" King Qi Wei didn't move at all. "The Warring States of the World, the three powers are connected to form an east-west line. The other four countries, Yanzhao in the north, and Han and Chu in the south, have different responses because of their different interests and relationships with Qi. There are conflicts among border residents, and small battles continue. If the Qi State wants to gather strength to press the Central Plains, it must form an alliance with these two neighboring countries to repair it, and free up its hands to concentrate on contending with Qin and Wei. Qi has the grace to rescue Zhao, It has the power to defeat Yan, as long as Qi shows its favor, Zhao Guo and Yan will be willing to follow, so that the north will be safe. This is the northern end of Yanzhao." King Qi Wei nodded slightly, his gaze was as hot as a flame! Zhang Yi spoke frankly: "There are different reasons to contain Chu and Han. Although South Korea is small, it is located in the central plains, and there are Yiyang Iron Mountains. All countries are coveted. If you win South Korea, you can threaten Chu in the south, and block Qin in the west. Dong Ke oppressed the State of Wei, and the royal family of Luoyang was surrounded by Han. However, after the failure of Shen Buhui's reform, the strength of South Korea dropped sharply, and Jin Han's name was greatly dimmed. He has become the weakest warring country. Great grace, Han hates Wei for a bloody battle, and Koreans hate Wei and love Qi. As long as Qi continues to repair with South Korea, South Korea will become a vassal of Qi. If South Korea is a vassal of Qi for a long time, it will neither make South Korea strong, And South Korea cannot be bullied. Qi State needs a tame South Korea, which is the root of containing South Korea! Chu State in the south has high mountains and deep waters, and a remote and vast area. No one can destroy it in one battle. However, Chu State has always been stubborn No change, the country is ambitious for the Central Plains, and that country can’t control it. The only effective countermeasure: unite with Wei State, blockade Chu State and the south of the Huai River, so that it cannot go north! This is to contain Chu State. Such a sway, Qi State will be safe forever great cause?" The weeping willows by the lake were swaying as the breeze blew, and Zhang Yi's heavily pronounced Wei accent was carried far in the wind. Listening and listening, King Qi Wei held the Tongjue tightly, his hands trembling slightly.This incisive analysis really woke him up like a revelation!Suddenly, the structure of the top three and the general trend of the world became particularly clear.Ordinary celebrities talk about the general trend of the world, and King Qi Wei has heard a lot, but they often miss the point.Zhang Yi is completely different, based on the interests of the Qi country, analyze the advantages and disadvantages to deal with, every sentence is crucial, and what is in the strategy is really a strategic plan.Even King Qi Wei thought it was a messy entanglement of the Seven Kingdoms, but he managed to sort it out with a few strokes of a knife and an axe! "This National People's Congress is a genius!" In an instant, King Qi Wei almost immediately wanted to worship Zhang Yi as the prime minister of Qi.However, this old and spicy king who has experienced many changes in the past still held back his life. He wants to see Zhang Yi again, which is a heavy responsibility for the country.Even though he had calmed down, he still couldn't help but slapped the stone case: "Mr.'s words are very clear. But I don't know how to link Wei and Qin, but what is the specific strategy? How to link? How to lock?" Zhang Yi almost didn't think about it: "Qi Wei Xiangwang. Qi and Qin are in business." But he stopped at the point and didn't say anything more. King Qi Wei pondered silently for a while, and he had already thought clearly. He felt that Zhang Yi's strategy was really clever, and he felt very relaxed. After drinking it all, he smiled and showed Zhang Yi his bottom.The wine proverb goes: Do it first and then respect it.But in the etiquette of the monarch's hospitality, no monarch does this.Naturally, Zhang Yi deeply felt the respect of King Qi Wei, so he drank it all in one gulp, and smiled at the bottom of the title, but just held the title with both hands to show a more humble return. "Sir, what is the solution to the Yue Kingdom's northward advance?" King Qi Wei knew that there was no need to hide in the face of such a strange person, so he directly asked about this headache. "It's easy to resolve the disaster." Zhang Yi smiled mysteriously: "It's just that Zhang Yi has to do it himself." "How?" King Qi Wei obviously didn't want Zhang Yi to leave: "Sir, make a decision, can't you send a special envoy to handle it?" "King Qi, please listen to my plan first." As he spoke, he leaned closer to King Qi Wei and whispered in a low voice, as if he was afraid that the old servant standing far away would hear him. Can become?" King Qi Wei nodded frequently when he heard this, but frowned again: "Sir, how can I feel relieved when I go to danger alone? However, if I have to send someone else to go to this matter, it may indeed spoil the big thing. It's really a dilemma..." Knowing that King Qi Wei was really worried about himself, Zhang Yi was very moved in his heart, and he cupped his hands generously and said, "The King of Qi treats me like a gentleman, Zhang Yi dare not repay me with a gentleman of the country? King Qi just relax, Zhang Yi will definitely do it all back." King Qi Wei thought about it for a while, and finally hit the stone case: "Okay! On the day you return to Qi, sir, you will be the prime minister of Qi!" "Thank you, my king. Zhang Yi is going south today." King Qi Wei sighed with emotion: "Mr. is so loyal to the country, Tian Yin is so grateful. It's just that he can't do anything for him." After speaking, he turned and ordered to the old servant: "Immediately take Mr. to the Shangfang treasury. Mr. Ren chooses everything from goods to goods!" Zhang Yi smiled: "Thank you, my king, two fast horses and a hundred yi gold are enough!"
