South Korea, Xinzheng.

While the Wei people in Anyi, the capital of the Wei State, were relishing the news of success one after another, the hearts of the Koreans in the capital of South Korea were filled with gloom.

Ever since the Wei army defeated the Korean army in Maling and then besieged Xinzheng, thick war clouds have always shrouded the Korean capital.

Every day, Koreans in the city struggle to live in this depressing atmosphere.

Although the Wei army did not make any siege posture, the invisible pressure from outside the city could still be felt in Xinzheng City.

The bustling streets that were once bustling with pedestrians have now become desolate, and the wine shops that were once bustling with customers have now become deserted.

By this moment, the military morale in Xinzheng and even South Korea had fallen to the bottom. No one wanted to continue such a battlefield.

Gradually, everyone's eyes turned to the palaces in Xinzheng City, and to the person who could decide when this war would end.

And the Marquis of Han, Han Ruoshan, who was attracting the attention of the whole Korea, was sitting on the throne at the moment, looking at the battle report in his hand with dull eyes.

There is no surprise. The contents of this battle report are the same as those submitted before, recording a defeat for South Korea.

Even as the battle report slowly slipped from his hands, Han Ruoshan still looked straight ahead, but there was no change in his expression at all.

At first, when Han Ruoshan received a letter of failed battle reports, the flames of anger would burn in his chest, and he would curse the incompetence of the frontline commander.

But as more and more defeats on the front line came to his ears, reports of failed battles appeared on his desk like snowflakes.

The anger in Han Ruoshan's chest gradually extinguished. He had even become numb to the failure and completely lost confidence in this war.

Before the war between Wei and the Han-Zhao alliance began, Han Ruoshan could still confidently imagine that the two countries would work together to defeat Wei again.

When Wei's southern army defeated 60,000 Koreans in the Battle of Maling and approached Xinzheng City, Han Ruoshan still hoped for a breakthrough on the northern battlefield.

However, when a series of news came, including the annihilation of the 80,000-strong Korean and Zhao coalition forces on the northern front by Wei and the fall of Pingyang, the old capital of South Korea, Han Ruoshan understood that South Korea had no chance of winning this war.

The Korean courtiers in the main hall saw Han Ruoshan speechless for a long time in front of the battle report, and understood the contents of the battle report in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

Suddenly, a voice rang out in the hall, and then a Korean courtier walked slowly from the queue and came to Han Ruoshan.

The courtier's words brought Han Ruoshan back to reality, "What's the matter with you?"

"Since the war between our country and the State of Wei began, first the cities such as Shouyuan fell, and then the capital Xinzheng was besieged. Now even the old capital Pingyang has fallen into the hands of the State of Wei. Not only that, the losses of our Korean army have also been

There are no less than 100,000 people."

After roughly counting South Korea's losses in low words, the South Korean courtier suddenly looked at Han Ruoshan with a hint of sadness.

"Your Majesty, I believe that South Korea can no longer bear greater losses and should call off the war with Wei as soon as possible."

After the Korean courtier finished speaking, the rest of the people in the hall looked at each other, and most of them agreed with his opinion.

"Your Majesty, I second your proposal."

"Your Majesty, I second your proposal."

"Your Majesty, I second your proposal."

…

As courtiers stood up one after another, the same voice soon formed in the entire Korean court.

Call off the war with Wei as soon as possible to prevent South Korea from suffering greater losses.

When most of the courtiers in the hall reached an agreement, the pressure naturally came to Han Ruoshan, the Marquis of Han.

Han Ruoshan looked at the eyes in the hall that were looking at him, and he knew that it was time for him, the Marquis of Han, to make a decision.

If Han Ruoshan was still thinking about his dignity as the Marquis of Han at first, then when things developed to this point, he no longer cared about anything.

Regardless of whether the Wei State wants beauties, money, or land, or whether it wants him, the Marquis of Han, to go to the Wei capital in person to pay homage to the Marquis of Wei, or even Korea will be dominated by the Wei State from now on...

As long as the war with Wei can be terminated, Han Ruoshan will agree to it.

Having made up his mind, Han Ruoshan stood up from the throne. His eyes passed over the faces of the courtiers below and stayed on the empty seat in the front for a long time.

After a few breaths, Han Ruoshan slowly looked away, and a low voice appeared in the hall.

"My lords, I have decided..."

"Report..."

Before Han Ruoshan finished speaking, a loud report suddenly came from outside the hall, and a Han Palace guard appeared in front of everyone.

He bowed and bowed deeply to Han Ruoshan, who was standing above him, and heard the Han Palace Langwei say: "Your Majesty, the envoy from the State of Wei has requested to meet the king and is waiting outside the palace at the moment."

Upon hearing the Wei envoy's request for an audience, all the courtiers present were immediately shocked, while the expression on Han Ruoshan's face above him changed.

"Please."

After receiving the order from the Marquis of Han, summons rang out outside the hall, and soon Wang Cuo, the senior official of the State of Wei, dressed in red robes, appeared in front of everyone.

"My lord, Wang Cuo, the envoy from the State of Wei, pays homage to the Marquis of Han."

"It's very polite to you, doctor, please hurry up and invite me." Looking at Wang Cuo who came to him, Han Ruoshan tried his best to squeeze out a smile from the corner of his mouth, "I was about to send someone to invite the doctor, but I didn't want to go to the doctor.

Take the first step."

Listening to what Han Ruoshan said above, Wang Cuo showed a bit of astonishment on his face, "I wonder if Marquis Han wants to invite foreign ministers for anything?"

Did Wang Cuo really not understand Han Ruoshan's intentions? Of course not.

Through the news that had been continuously delivered to him from Anyi these days, combined with the deteriorating situation in Xinzheng City, Wang Cuo judged that South Korea was almost unable to support itself.

The reason why Wang Cuo took the initiative to ask for an audience without waiting for South Korea's action was firstly because he received a silk letter written by Wei Yu himself, and secondly because he wanted to do the opposite and firmly hold the initiative in his own hands.

Han Ruoshan looked at Wang Cuo below and said in a deep voice: "The reason why I want to invite the doctor is because of the truce between Korea and Wei."

There was silence for a moment after saying this, but Han Ruoshan's eyes flashed a little firmness.

"I am willing to agree to the conditions proposed by the Marquis of Wei before. I will go to Anyi as soon as possible to see the Marquis of Wei and invite the doctor..."

"No need."

Before Han Ruoshan finished speaking, Wang Cuo interrupted him with three words, which made a look of astonishment flash across his face.

What is unnecessary?

Is it because Wei is unwilling to call a truce with South Korea, or is Wei putting forward more stringent conditions this time?

Just when Han Ruoshan was feeling uneasy because of Wang Cuo's words, he saw Wang Cuo bowing to him.

"Previously, the Marquis of Wei was angry that South Korea had united with the State of Zhao to humiliate the State of Wei, so he asked the Marquis of Han to go to Anyi for an audience. However, after he calmed down, the Marquis of Wei felt that this condition was very inappropriate."

"Both the Marquis of Han and the Marquis of Han were princes created by the Emperor of Zhou. Requiring the Marquis of Han to go to Anyi to pay homage was not only inconsistent with etiquette, but also seemed aggressive to Wei."

Halfway through his words, Wang Cuo deliberately paused for a moment, waiting to see all the eyes of everyone present focused on him before continuing.

"So, the Marquis of Wei gave up the condition he proposed before and instead invited the Marquis of Han to go to Yecheng to form an alliance."
