South Korea, Xinzheng, Prime Minister's Mansion.

Sitting on the seat in the main hall, Han Ye, who was the Prime Minister of Han but had lived in seclusion during this period, was looking deep in thought, looking quietly at Han Ruoshan, the Marquis of Han next to him.

Just now in the main hall, Han Ruoshan, who was visiting in person, told the prime minister next to him everything about the scene in the court yesterday.

After Han Ruoshan finished everything, there was silence in the main hall for a moment, and then Han Ye's faint questioning sounded.

"If I guess correctly, your Majesty is ready to agree to the conditions proposed by the State of Wei this time?"

Listening to Han Ye's words, Han Ruoshan's eyes began to dodge, and there was a hint of hesitation in the tone of his answer.

After all, no matter how tolerant the conditions proposed by Wei were, South Korea was actually a defeated country.

"Prime Minister, if it weren't for something impossible to do, I would not be willing to agree to Wei Guo's conditions this time."

As if to avoid Han Ye's gaze on him, Han Ruoshan stood up from his seat and walked slowly to the door of the main hall.

Looking out the door, with his back to Han Ye, Han Ruoshan sighed with deep helplessness.

"Xiangguo, I really can't afford to fight against Korea."

After another long wait, Han Ruoshan slowly turned around and said in a deep voice to Han Ye: "Now Xinzheng is besieged, Pingyang has fallen, and a large area of ​​territory has fallen into the hands of Wei."

"If the war between South Korea and Wei continues to be delayed, I am afraid that the Wei army will one day attack Xinzheng. By then, the foundation established by our ancestors of the Han family may be in danger of overthrowing."

"Prime Minister, the situation is like this, but I have no choice but to agree."

After listening to what Han Ruoshan said, Han Ye also let out a long sigh, but his thoughts were different from those of Han Hou in front of him.

Through Wei Guo's initiative to give in, Han Ye already had some understanding of Wei Guo's purpose.

From the beginning to the end, what Wei wanted to accomplish was not to destroy South Korea, but just to make South Korea surrender to Wei and act according to Wei's will.

With this premise, Han Ye believed that the Wei army would not attack Xinzheng, and even the previously proposed condition for Han Hou to go to Anyi to meet with him was just a strategy.

In fact, the newly succeeded Wei Marquis in Anyi City never thought about accepting the Han Marquis's court meeting. What he wanted was to form an alliance with the Han Marquis when Wei had the upper hand.

Then, South Korea and Wei can reach an alliance on this.

The situation has reached this point, and Han Ye, who has clearly understood Wei Hou Wei's plot, has to sigh in his heart. This method of retreating to advance is indeed very clever.

Enter five cities and retreat two cities.

Wei State not only gained tangible benefits from this, but also gained a reputation for tolerance among the princes. It was really a wonderful move that had the best of both worlds.

Moreover, this chess move can be used by more than just South Korea. Don’t forget that there is also Zhao State who is at war with Wei State this time.

South Korea has already ended up in such a situation, what will happen to Zhao who is about to compete alone with Wei?

Thinking about this, Han Ye's attention suddenly focused on the location of the alliance proposed by Wei.

Yecheng is only separated by the Zhang River from Handan, the current capital of Zhao State.

At this moment, a smile appeared on Han Ye's face. He understood everything.

This meeting in Yecheng was not a meeting between Korea and Wei, but a meeting between Han, Zhao, Wei and the three Jin Dynasties.

Through this massive war, Wei State has proved to the princes of the world that it has the military power to defeat South Korea and Zhao State at the same time.

After that, the Marquis of Wei would use this Yecheng meeting to achieve the nominal unification of the three Jins and establish his status as the overlord of the three Jins.

What a courage, what a plan!

After praising in his heart, Han Ye slowly looked towards the north. He already had a premonition that a good show was about to be staged there.

…

Just as the monarchs and ministers in Xinzheng City were discussing what happened in the court yesterday, a special guest was welcomed outside the Chinese army tent at the Wei army camp outside Xinzheng City.

Following the guards leading the way, this person slowly walked into the big tent in front, where Wei State Sima Gongsun Qi and his deputy Pang Juan had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing this guest appear in front of him, Gongsun Qi slowly came to him, with a kind look in his eyes.

"General Han Yue, I haven't seen you for many days. Has your injury recovered?"

The special guest standing in front of Gongsun Qi was none other than Han Yue, the Korean general who was captured by the Wei army in the Battle of Maling.

Hearing Gongsun Qi's questioning words, Han Yue first touched his injured right arm with his left hand, and then touched the scabbed wound on his face.

After doing all this, he looked at Gongsun Qi in front of him with a wry smile, "Thank you Sima for your concern, Han Yue's injury has been greatly healed."

"That's good, that's good. That's good." Gongsun Qi then extended his hand to invite the other party, "There are no good wines and delicacies in the army, so I can only entertain the distinguished guests with thin wine and small dishes. General, please take a seat."

Following the direction pointed by Gongsun Qi's finger, Han Yue's gaze gently swept across the front and saw what kind of thin wine and side dishes were on top of the tables?

Han Yue quickly bowed deeply and said in a deep voice: "How can a defeated general be on the same level as General Sima and Pang Juan?"

"Although the Korean army was defeated, General Pang Juan and I admire the general very much, and we ask the general not to refuse." Gongsun Qi did not allow Han Yue to refuse, and pushed him down on a seat.

After a moment, Gongsun Qi gently raised the filled wine cup in front of him and asked Han Yue: "General Han Yue, do you know why General Pang Juan and I invited you here today?"

"Han Yue doesn't know, please ask Sima to inform you."

With a kind smile on his face, Gongsun Qi said softly: "There is news from Xinzheng City that the Marquis of Han has decided to agree to the conditions proposed by the Marquis of Wei. The day when our Wei Kingdom and South Korea will call a truce is not far away."

"This also means that General Han Yue is about to return to South Korea. How can we not have a drink at such a happy event? This wine is dedicated to the general."

"please."

Seeing Gongsun Qi above and Pang Juan on the opposite side raise their wine glasses, Han Yue had no choice but to pick up the wine in front of her, signal to them and drink it down in one gulp.

Han Yue, who was originally expected to return to South Korea, should have been happy, but after hearing the news, there was no joy in his eyes.

My country suffered successive defeats on the battlefield, and a large area of ​​territory fell into the hands of the enemy. In the end, I had to agree to the enemy's alliance under the city.

This is really not an easy thing to accept for a general who fights desperately on the battlefield.

Perhaps because of the depression in his heart, Han Yue kept drinking a lot of fine wine, and soon became drunk and passed out.

After several soldiers carried Han Yue away, Pang Juan, who had been silent just now, turned his eyes to Gongsun Qi.

"By returning Han Yue to South Korea, isn't Sima afraid that this person will become a serious problem for our country, Wei?"

"After the Battle of Maling, Han Yue already has a clear understanding of the strength gap between South Korea and Wei." Looking at the curtain in front of him, he heard Gongsun Qi say in a deep voice: "He is a smart man.

He knows what to do when he returns to Korea."

In fact, what Wei needs is not a weak South Korea, but a South Korea that is not weak and can see the situation clearly.
