"The princes all have nothing to gain, so it's impossible for me to recognize my status as Lord of the Northern Territory and Bingjun for nothing, right?"

Yan Yan knew very well that he still did not have the strength to challenge other countries. Even the weakest Han and Qi could not defeat them with his current strength.

The fundamental reason why all countries will acquiesce in his existence is that they are restraining each other and maintaining a tacit understanding with each other. He currently lives in the cracks between the princes Qin and Zhao. The other princes are completely trying to make trouble, and it is not a big deal to watch the excitement. .

"Still awake, not drifting!" Seeing Yan Yan ask this question, Li Mu also breathed a sigh of relief.

The biggest worry is that young people are young and energetic and cannot recognize the facts.

Now there is no need for him to remind him. Yan Yan found out by himself that it was no wonder that the other party was able to find the balance between the princes and survive in the cracks between Qin and Zhao.

"Of course not. What the princes want is peace in the north, and you must also swear that the Bingzhou Army will never cross the Great Wall and enter the Central Plains!" Li Mu stated the requirements of the princes from various countries.

Some oaths and covenants are meant to be broken, but some covenants can never be broken, and the oath Yan needs to make falls into the latter category.

The former is actually an agreement between the princes themselves, equivalent to an agreement between two power groups. Whether it continues or not has nothing to do with other people, let alone the common people.

The latter is different. This is a covenant and an oath witnessed by everyone in the world and cannot be canceled unilaterally.

"I thought you already knew that the statue was deliberately designed?" Looking at the confused Yan Yan, Li Mu felt numb.

The whole world thought that Yan Yan was using the statue to express his ambition, and because of this, he was recognized by the princes. Otherwise, which prince would want one more person to share the world's pie!

"Is there a possibility that the statue was made casually by him, but it better reflects his true aspirations? This is even more rare than a show!" Sima Shang said in a low voice.

In addition to the supervision of all parties, the observance of the covenant is more about the original intention of the creator of the covenant!

Random creations can better reflect the other person's thoughts!

Li Mu nodded in approval. Maybe there are some pure people in this world, and they are not all scheming!

"Merge the king, merge the state? Merge the country?" Yan Yan and others finally came to their senses.

They didn't expect that just a statue asking for a Bingzhou tripod would cause so many things, but the results seemed to be good!

The first envoy to arrive at Sanzicheng was not the nearest envoy from the Qin State, but Lord Yan Chun who set off from Jicheng, the capital of the Yan State.

Lord Changwen and Lord Changping of the Qin State had to escort Bingzhou Ding, so although they were the first to set off, they fell behind the state of Yan.

"Bingjun, I have heard about him for a long time, and today I finally got to meet him!" Yanchunjun was not as arrogant and domineering as Yan Yan imagined, but was very easy-going. This may be due to the status gap.

"Yan has also heard about Mr. Yan Chun for a long time, and I just got to meet him today!" He stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man. What's more, Yan Yan and Mr. Yan Chun didn't have much to say, so they were naturally the host and guest.

As for Yan Yan taking Xue Nu away, Yan Chunjun didn't mention a word, as if it had never happened.

Lord Yan Chun can become King Yan Xi's favorite brother, and he is not an incompetent person.

"In addition to congratulating Mr. Bing and handing over my credentials, I have other important things to discuss with Mr. Bing when I come here this time!" Mr. Yan Chun said solemnly.

"Oh?" Yan Yan asked with a smile, "What's the matter?" "Bah bang bang~" Yan Chunjun clapped his hands, and the waiter behind him quickly ran up and slowly unfolded a parchment roll on the receipt. .

"This is the map of the counties in western Liaoning of our Yan State, and it also includes the map of Donghu!" Yan Chunjun stretched out his hand and pointed out on the map the counties and cities bordering the Yan State and Donghu, as well as the cities and tribes of Donghu.

"Then what?" Yan Yan pretended not to know what Yan Chunjun wanted to do.

"We are all sensible people. Bing Jun should be very clear that it is inevitable for Yan and Qin to attack Zhao, and when the time comes, General Li Mu will inevitably withdraw the army from Yanmen Pass to the south, but the old Linhu and Danlin areas will also It will definitely fall into the hands of Lord Bing!" Lord Yan Chun pointed at Lin Hu and Dan Lin.

"And I, the Yan State, can help Bingjun contain Donghu, so that Bingjun has enough time to completely control Lin Hu and Dan Lin!" Yan Chunjun placed the tea cup heavily at the junction of Yan State and Donghu.

Yan Yan looked at the map and then at Lord Yan Chun. Who dared to say that Yan State was stupid and Lord Yan Chun was useless? How could he be an ordinary person with his eyesight?

Yan State has fought against Zhao State so many times, and although they all failed, it was just a failed battle at the right time and in the right place. It does not mean that Yan State's attack was wrong.

If the timing and generals of Yan's several attacks were replaced by others, Hezong would not be attacking Qin but Yan!

"What do I need to do?" Yan Yan asked with a smile.

"Our Yan State is just an investment. After Bingjun officially borders Donghu, our Yan State will retreat thirty miles from the Great Wall. We hope that Bingjun's men will guard it for us!" Yan Chunjun said seriously.

"In other words, the Yan State will give up a buffer zone here for us to move in and cut off the border between Yan State and Donghu?" Yan Yan traced the boundary between Yan State and Donghu with his fingers.

"Yes!" Yan Chunjun nodded seriously.

"Yan State has no idea about Donghu?" Yan Yan was curious.

Looking at it this way, doesn’t it mean that there is nothing good for Yan State?

Yan Yan thought that the Yan State helped him capture Lin Hu and Dan Lin because he wanted to destroy Dong Hu and carve up Dong Hu together with him, but he did not expect that the Yan State actually wanted him to rush into the border between Yan State and Dong Hu to form a line. The military barrier between Yan State and Donghu.

"Do you really think that Yan State cannot defeat Zhao State?" Yan Chunjun asked with a smile.

"Isn't it?" Yan Yan asked, the facts were before his eyes.

"Since our country of Yan became a feudal state, we have never forgotten the teachings of our ancestors and guarded the northeast. Therefore, at the border between us and the Donghu, Wuhuan and other tribes, we have always stationed 50,000 elite troops, and they are absolutely elite. Even back then, During the Zi Zhi Rebellion, they never brought back the army!"

"If we recalled this army when we attacked Zhao State, do you think Lian Po and Pang Nuan could win?" Yan Chunjun looked at Yan Yan and asked calmly.

"This army is different from the army of Yan State today. They are all elites who have fought against Hu people and Wuhuan all year round. Whether it is personal quality or ability, they are not comparable to ordinary armies!"

Yan Yan nodded. If Yan State really had such an army of 50,000 on the border, then this army must be the best of the best.

After all, the border is bitterly cold and they have been fighting Donghu and Wuhuan all year round. Their combat power is not comparable to that of ordinary armies.

In the Battle of Hadai, Ju Xin and Pang Nuan fought. If the Yan State transferred this army back, the outcome would be really unpredictable!
