Chapter 242 Shadow Intelligence Network
The current territory of Qi State extends to the middle city of South Korea in the west, the entire country of Yan State in the north, and close to Chu State and Yue State in the south.
The entire Central Plains starts from the east, and a large piece of territory in the middle belongs to Qi State. In addition, the two small vassal states of Song State and Wei have just been taken over, and the background is not bad. Now the wealth of the two countries is being transferred to Qi State.
Zhou Zihao had no choice but to bring up the issue of rest. They had already experienced nearly three months of fighting life in all directions.
After these three months of mopping up, Han Wei had only a few cities left and was reduced to a small country. Although there was no negotiation yet, Zhou Zihao was very sure that even if Qin State kept providing cannons, Zhou Zihao was sure to defend the land in front of him.
Besides, Qin Guo didn't have that ability, if he had, he would have brought his artillery out long ago, so how can he correct his previous mistakes.
So what is important now is to find out who provided the cannon. If it is an improved version of the Shenwei cannon, he also recognizes it, but he has never seen their cannon.
The Shenwei cannon provided by Zhou Zihao was also relatively crude. The metal used was the existing iron in Qi, but it was barely usable. He was already very confident that with these, he could sit on the belly of the Central Plains and become an overlord.
But the current state of Qin made him feel like a knife was hanging over his head, making it difficult for him to catch his breath.
He was afraid, deeply afraid that his leisurely attitude would prevent the development of Qi State, but when they really fought with Qin State, it was not certain who would win.
You must know that there is still a state of Zhao in the north that is ready to move. Although Zhao is so quiet now, it is because he is not confident enough to fight against Qi and Qin all at once.
Therefore, in the battle between the east and the west, King Zhao Wuling also chose to be neutral and no longer participated. He originally wanted to attack the country of Yan, but later saw that the Qi army controlled the country of Yan, and he was no longer silent, and fought against the surrounding area.
It was Pang Juan and Zhong Yue who made him shy away, one inside and the other outside, guarding the country of Yan as solid as gold, and anyone would want to get close.
Zhongshan Kingdom, which was the first to attack, was beaten by them to compromise and surrender, and its fate was merged into Yan Kingdom like Song Kingdom, which made the people of Yan Kingdom excited and fully saw the power of Zhong Yue.
Therefore, the most important thing for Zhou Zihao now is to get in touch with these scattered territories. He is not a good landlord, but he has a mother with outstanding abilities. Zhong Wuyan attaches great importance to every place. I will do my best to watch and live.
A few days later, Zhong Wuyan said to Zhou Zihao: "I have now received the news from Qin."
"Have you heard the news?"
Zhou Zihao wasn't very interested, and he still didn't know much about Qin's news, so when Zhong Wuyan told him that he had figured it out, he was only a little surprised.
Seeing his depressed appearance, Zhong Wuyan thought that her son was still not stable enough.
"The state of Qin currently has a total of [-] cannons, and they are about to sell [-] to South Korea and [-] to the state of Wei, and they are vigorously rushing to build them. However, the materials for making cannons in Qin are not very sufficient. According to the information I have received, at present that is all."
"That's... a lot." Zhou Zihao never expected that Zhong Wuyan would be so efficient, not only knowing the number clearly, but also knowing so much.
Even if Zhou Zihao uses the monitoring door, he can only know part of it. Unless Zhou Zihao has important people working in Qin, he can follow that line and quickly understand.
Zhong Wuyan asked: "Are you surprised, why do I know so clearly?"
Zhou Zihao nodded like a chicken chopping rice.
"I have shadows in various countries. As long as I want to know about that, my shadows will provide me with information."
Then, Zhong Wuyan explained to Zhou Zihao in detail the huge intelligence system of Shadow. As Zhong Wuyan's secret weapon, she had never mentioned Shadow to anyone, not even King Xuan of Qi.
After hearing Zhong Wuyan's introduction to Shadow, Zhou Zihao was extremely surprised. This kind of intelligence system, even Daming's Jinyiwei, is not as powerful as hers.
The main reason is that her shadow is as hidden as the air. She can usually be ordinary people, businessmen, or clients of some important nobles.
Zhong Wuyan was very satisfied with his performance, and tried her best to hide her complacency.
Shadow is one of her masterpieces, and it is all because of it that she has been able to help King Xuan of Qi do so many things over the years.
Zhou Zihao said: "Mother, the territory of our Qi country is large enough, and the next step is to guard for a while. I want my mother to take care of the resettlement of these new lands as soon as possible, so that it can quickly become our real territory. .”
Zhong Wuyan laughed and said: "Wang Er, even if you don't say these things, I will arrange for people to go down and do them. Have you forgotten that I have many people like Zhong Yue, not just relying on you few people?" brother."
"Uh..." Zhou Zihao was a little embarrassed, he was rather lazy personally, he arranged things to his senior brothers and Zhong Wuyan, and then he did his own thing.
"Don't worry, mother, I will continue to work hard."
"Take things slowly. Stability is the most important thing. Of course, you can't be like your father, so let's not talk about it."
When Zhong Wuyan thought of King Xuan of Qi, she couldn't help feeling a little melancholy, no matter how dissatisfied King Xuan of Qi was before, he was gone now.
Zhou Zihao comforted: "You don't have to be sad, mother, the past is over."
Regarding the negotiations between Han and Wei, Lord Meng Chang and Su Qin were each in charge of a country. They had already set off the day before yesterday, because it would take some time to go there, and they had to join forces with Sun Bin and Tian Dan.
In order to negotiate successfully, there are too many factors needed. Qi has enough confidence. It is good if they agree, but there is no other way if they disagree.
From a medium-sized country to a dispensable small country, King Han and King Wei are of course very sad.
But to resist, they don't have the strength yet. Zhou Zihao left Korea and Wei now, just keeping this small barrier to block Qin's sight.
I believe that as long as Qin State takes action, Qi State will be able to detect it, and will not be too at a loss.
Lord Mengchang said to Su Qin: "In the past, I always wanted to express my ambition, so I raised a group of look-alike followers and was laughed at many times."
Su Qin said: "What's the point of ridicule? I admire Brother Meng very much for being a man who can be sought after by so many people."
The allusion of the cock-crowding dog-thief has not yet appeared, and it is estimated that it will not, because Zhou Zihao will not abandon him, let him chill, and go to Qin to be a useless prime minister.
Meng Changjun said: "This is the first mission that the king entrusted to us. We can only succeed, not fail. Otherwise, next time, the king may let us manage those projects in Qi State. It is not to complain about the tiredness of those projects, but I want to go out more to see the world and gain experience.”
Su Qin was left in Qi State to help Zhong Wuyan manage domestic affairs, and he was still a little bit disappointed.
