Chapter 381

~5 min read 942 words

When relying on Jing Ke, Yan Dan called him Jing Qing. When he discovered that Jing Ke betrayed him and ruined his great cause, Yan Dan directly called the other party Jing Ke, that little brat.

He did not know why Jing Ke betrayed him, whether he discovered some clues.

But Jing Ke's betrayal was indeed something Yan Dan had not expected.

When the news was sent back to the Mohist School, many Mohist leaders were also unbelievable.

They all knew Jing Ke's character, who had always been chivalrous and warm-hearted. As a result, he chose to betray Yan Dan, so that the assassination failed. Why did Jing Ke do this? The Mohist people could not understand.

But when they saw Qin Wuyang's miserable corpse, they also had to admit that from now on, Jing Ke was the person to be punished by the Mohist School, and was the common enemy of the entire Mohist School.

At the same time, for Yan Dan, another thing that made him unwilling was.

That was, although he hated Jing Ke's betrayal, he could not do anything to Jing Ke. On the contrary, he had to face a worse situation.

The Qin Guo sent troops.

After the events in the Xianyang Palace spread, the Wang Jian army, which was originally stationed in the territory of the State of Zhao, marched toward the State of Yan. They came in the name of avenging the King of Qin to take revenge on the State of Yan.

Even though that assassination did not succeed, and Qin Wuyang was killed on the spot, and his corpse was sent back to the State of Yan as a gift.

But the assassination was undoubtedly a reason for the Qin Guo to send troops.

Wars have always emphasized having a famous teacher, although the Qin Guo did not care much about this. Even if there was no name, they would directly send troops to conquer other countries, but sometimes, they did not mind finding some names to send troops.

For example, the matter of the King of Qin encountering the assassination of the State of Yan, once spread, was learned by many Qin soldiers, and the morale of the entire Qin army was suddenly improved a lot.

Such good things are hard to come by.

Although the Qin Guo just destroyed the State of Zhao, and now is not a good opportunity to take action against the State of Yan, seeing that the soldiers' morale is high, and the State of Yan is not a powerful country, it is not impossible for the Qin Guo to take the opportunity to destroy the State of Yan in one battle.

In the State of Yan, King Yan and others, after knowing Yan Dan's actions, originally wanted to punish Yan Dan, but with the sending of troops by the Qin Guo, they had to temporarily put this matter aside and fully deal with the conquest of the Qin Guo.

Yan Dan sent people to assassinate the King of Qin, Ying Zheng. At this time, wanting the Qin Guo to put down its hatred and talk to the State of Yan is probably impossible. I am afraid that handing over Yan Dan's head to the Qin Guo is not enough to calm the anger of the Qin Guo.

King Yan Xi, thinking that the hundreds of years of state and society of the State of Yan were about to perish in his hands, felt a burst of discomfort.

Just at this time, Yan Dan, this rebellious son, found him again and proposed a new method to save the nation.

That is, to unite with the State of Dai to resist the Qin Guo.

Although King Yan Xi was angry because of Yan Dan's self-assertion earlier, what could he do at this time? He could only let Yan Dan contact the State of Dai. Even if he really wanted to punish this rebellious son, he had to wait until the State of Yan was safe.

The State of Dai was a small Zhao court established by the former Crown Prince of the State of Zhao, Zhao Jia, in the Dai territory after the destruction of the State of Zhao. This could be considered a continuation of the State of Zhao, but because the State of Zhao had already been destroyed, and the Dai territory was not large, it was really not easy to call it the State of Zhao, so this small court was called the State of Dai, and Zhao Jia was called the King of Dai.

The State of Dai was near the State of Yan.

The Qin Guo destroyed the State of Zhao. Although the State of Dai was established, it could be destroyed by the Qin Guo at any time.

In times of danger, Yan Dan had considered several countermeasures. Among them, one countermeasure was to contact the Hu people outside the Great Wall, lead the Hu army into the Central Plains, and resist the Qin army, but after this thought arose, he finally gave it up.

After all, he was a descendant of the Zhou Dynasty, a descendant of the Ji clan with a correct root and red seedling. How could he actively lead the Hu people outside the Great Wall into the Central Plains?

Although Zhao and Yan were mortal enemies, the matter of Li Mu defeating the 100,000-strong Xiongnu army in the Yanmen territory was still being praised in the State of Yan. Many Yan people regarded Li Mu as a hero.

Because the State of Yan was also a country that was often invaded by the Xiongnu and Hu people.
