Chapter 989: Try not to fight


King Wei Hui saw that Zhuangzi was still unwilling to come to Wei to be an official, and everyone had their own ambitions, so he was no longer reluctant.

Because it is still far away from the national capital Daliang, I didn't take Zhuangzi back to the Wei Palace.

I stayed down and received him warmly.

As a diplomat, Hui Shi was very busy.

Dressed in patched clothes and wearing a pair of bark shoes with hemp silk tied with the upper of his shoes on his feet, Zhuangzi entered the camp of King Wei Hui, leaving the soldiers stunned one by one.

These soldiers couldn't believe that King Wei Hui would receive such a poor ghost After inquiry, I learned that this person was the legendary Zhuangzi.

"Oh, it turned out to be Zhuangzi" "It's no wonder you're so poor" The soldiers were whispering behind their backs.

Some understand, some don't.

However, whether others understand it or not, for Zhuangzi, it is to cultivate his influence and enhance his influence.

King Wei Hui changed his normal state, and asked Zhuangzi shamelessly: how to make Wei strong again A few years ago, Zhuangzi had given King Wei Hui the idea to develop the population and attack the hereditary nobility.

As a result, King Wei Hui really did it, and it worked very well.

King Wei Hui sent soldiers with military merits home to visit relatives, marry wives and have children, let those whose wives were pregnant go to military service, let those who were disabled retire, and so on.

As a result, the population of Wei came up all at once.

The land area of Wei was much larger than that of Song, so the rate of population development was quite fast.

But the after-effects immediately appeared.

As Zhuangzi said, although the population has risen, the burden on the family has increased.

The number of people in the family is large, and pregnant and lactating women are not allowed to participate in the labor force, so the average family cannot afford it.

Although Wei implemented a new policy and did not increase taxes for childbearing families, the lack of labor was a big problem.

The key problem is that although Wei no longer takes the initiative to fight, it still passively wars.

You can only guarantee that you will not start a war, but you cannot guarantee that others will not come to fight you.

If someone else comes to fight you, you have to passively participate in the war.

Therefore, on the one hand, the Wei State needed labor to support its family in order to develop the population, and on the other hand, it had to increase the source of troops to fight wars and defend the country.

At this time, the powerful Qin State united the Chu State, the Zhao State, and South Korea, constantly waging wars, and did not give the Wei State a chance to breathe at all.

In terms of financial resources, King Wei Hui decisively attacked the hereditary nobles and scavenged financial resources from them, and he could cope with them for a while.

The hereditary nobles of Wei could not twist their arms around their thighs, and they were forced to comply by the might of King Wei Hui.

In the Wei State, because King Wei Hui had the means, and the real power and financial resources were concentrated in his hands, most of the hereditary nobles in the territory could not make trouble.

Now in the face of such a Wei state, how should Zhuangzi save it?

King Wei Hui looked at Zhuangzi with expectant eyes, and Hui Shi also looked at Zhuangzi with some pity on the side.

King Wei Hui had that feeling of being at the end of the road, so he really hoped that Zhuangzi could give him some pointers.

Hui Shi is different, Hui Shi is pitiful because he has no way to save the country.

But in his heart, there was still some jealousy.

Hui Shi still didn't believe that Zhuangzi could have any good plan to save the devastated Wei State Zhuangzi thought about it again and again, shook his head and sighed: "I don't have the best strategy, the only way is for Wei to stop fighting."

If there is another war, the Wei State really can't afford to spend it."

King Wei Hui smiled bitterly: "I think so too, but I can't help but think that the Qin State did not stop because of the death of Qin Xiaogong, nor did it decline because of the death of Shang Ying, on the contrary, the Qin State still follows the old system and the law of Shang Ying."

This is still the little Yingsi, who has become more and more arrogant.

Now that the useless Dongdong of the Great Zhou Tianzi attaches importance to him in the Qin State, he sends sacrificial meat to the Qin State every year."

In the past, the Qin State was very backward, and it was suppressed by Wei and other countries every year, and the Great Zhou Emperor did not take the Qin State seriously.

Every year, when the sacrifice is made, the sacrificial meat is not given to the Qin State.

But since the Qin State became strong, Zhou Tianzi suddenly sent sacrificial meat to the Qin State.

Hearing the exclamation of King Wei Hui, Zhuangzi suddenly remembered that when he followed his master Yang Zhu to pass by the gate of the Son of Heaven, he was warmly received by the Emperor of the Great Zhou.

The master preached to the Great Zhou Tianzi.

Later, he also taught Da Zhou Tianzi a trick.

It seems that the situation of King Wei Hui today is no different from that of the Great Zhou Tianzi back then.

I remember that at that time, the master taught the Great Zhou Tianzi, which roughly meant: to be a show, to do your own position as the Son of Heaven, and to be old to the end.

As long as the Great Zhou is not destroyed in your lifetime, history will leave a name for you.

It's a shame to be the last king.

Today, I can also transfer the words that the master said to the Great Zhou Tianzi to King Wei Hui.

Judging from the current situation of the Great Zhou, the fate of Wei is similar to the fate of the Great Zhou.

It is impossible for the Great Zhou Dynasty to dominate the world and let the princes of the world come on pilgrimage.

And the state of Wei is the same, it is impossible to become a country of hegemony again.

Now the only thing for King Wei Hui to do is to maintain his position and continue the Wei state until he is alive without being destroyed.

In this way, King Wei Hui can also leave a mark in history: the longest reigning king in the history of Wei.

The longest-reigning king in the history of the Warring States.

During his reign, Wei had a glorious state and became a hegemon.

"You can return the land of Qin that you occupied before to Qin, and give the title deed of Hexi to Qin, and you can temporarily reconcile with Qin."

Although the Qin State occupied Hexi and other places, it regained the land that originally belonged to the Qin State.

However, Wei did not transfer the title deed to Qin.

So the real owner of the land is still the Wei State.

"How can this be," interrupted King Wei Hui.

These are all the hard work and hearts of him and his ancestors, how can the land that he finally won down be easily returned to others "Have you seen that the Qin State occupied the land of Shangzhou, and the Chu State did not fight with the Qin State, but on the contrary, established an alliance.

The reason for this is because the state of Chu cannot fight with the state of Qin for the time being.

If the two powerful countries fight, they will only lose both.

So Chu endured.

It's not that you don't want the land of Shangzhou, but you don't have that strength for the time being.

If a fight breaks out, it is not known whether it will be recaptured, but it is obvious that the result of the war will be a defeat for both sides.

So" Zhuangzi said, his eyes looking at King Wei Hui.

King Wei Hui pondered for a while, and said: "The widow can't say that he took the initiative to go to the Qin State to repair the alliance, if so, the Qin State still doesn't think that the widowed Wei State will not dare to fight."

"It's not to take the initiative to show goodwill and repair an alliance with the Qin State.

Instead, wait for the timing.

When the opportunity comes, bring it up again.

The current Wei State needs the most land to recuperate and recuperate, and it can no longer fight.

When this breath of relief comes, we can still dominate, is it possible to take back what we lost, isn't it?"
